I learnt something today
A boxer's fight does not start in the ring itself, it starts from the first day he steps into the training room. Determination was what got him to win the match.

Success
Happen to come upon this short quote which is soooooo applicable to my life... Hahahaha!
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
I'm still working hard on it! Jia you to everyone else who's doing so too! =)

Definition of procrastination
Procrastination is a call to action. It is a signal that you must act on the very things that you do not want to act on and DO the very thing that's holding you back. It is the necessary resistance you need to be able to grow, develop and gain confidence that only comes from actually doing it. When you do break through the short term pain' that held you back you come out on the other side with an increased sense of esteem for yourself and you start to see yourself and your abilities from a different perspective. The fact that you are procrastinating about something means that it hold significant enough value for you to be uncomfortable with not taking action.
The things that are holding you back most are that which will free you most - once you take action. What will free you most is taking action. Not because of the absence of procrastination, but despite the procrastinating. Tweet This

A small advice for people who like to procrastinate
When the game of life is finally over, there is no second chance to correct our errors. The clock that is ticking away the moments of our lives does not care about winners and losers. It does not care about who succeeds or who fails. It does not care about excuses, fairness or equality. The only essential issue is how we played the game.
Time is the greatest equalizer of all mankind. The same clock that began to tick from the moment we drew our first first breath will someday come to an end. Time offers an opporunity but in return, demands a sense of urgency.
Right now, we are all still young. We still have all the time we need. We still have lots of chances, lots of opportunities. lots of years to show what we can do. For most of us, there will be tomorrow, a next week, a next month, and a next year. But unless we develop a sense of urgency. those brief windows of time will be sadly wasted, as were the weeks and months and years before them. There isn't any endless supply.
