The Hills Are Alive With Paradoxes

I just got home from KL, a business trip the office sent me there
for Account Manager Training: Distributor Success. A two days training that was
really drying out my energy and we absolutely have no time for shopping (damn
it!) I love working actually; some people say I’m over worked that’s why I
don’t have any bf. Maybe they’re right, but a in very small portion of course,
as i always defend myself as a Libra :P so, here I am checking my emails in my
web-inbox from clients, co-workers, inquiries, tasks after three days. And also
doing the resume for my colleagues that aren’t going as what my boss’ request.

Hot diggity-dang! This Volta
album is really something new, vive le Björk!

It’s quite hot in MY, even though it’s raining last night. But
unfortunately I have to wear a smart casual while I’m feeling like tank-topping.
All training sessions I kept drinking cold mineral water and it just won’t cool
my body temperature. Thank God the chair was quite comfortable, at least my butt
won’t get hurt sitting and listening all the presentation and teaching, as I
talked to myself. It was quite crowded; almost 30 Account Managers from
South-east-Asia region only. I start seeing sleepy eyes, fingers tapping
pencils, and as if I could see each balloon thoughts flying all over from their
heads.

It was quite a wall in our first meet up at the 1st day
of training. No one know who, we just guesses who’s who from the names from the
emails we send all these times. The most difficult was names from
Thailand ; I
can’t even pronounce it (I think they should pull out our tongue to be able to
pronounce it correctly). Other coming from
Malaysia, Singapore,  Brunei, Philippines
and special guest:
China

AM. This training was also attended by President of SEA and VP Distributor
Success from our head office in Provo, Utah USA.

The training was about mindset, how we should dealt with
distributors, colleagues from other department and changes should start within
ourselves. I think I already got the point but I’m a man of learning, and I’m
an open book to everything new. Somehow I could feel this kinda training won’t
last long (been there, done that) not being a pessimistic, but it’s true ya
know. Things are changing and we should go through everything in a process.
Whether it’s painful, difficult, harsh, and even bring us tear, it’s still a
process every being must do. We just need to read the signs correctly to get
the best result.

Sometimes people want to be the best by copying someone else, or
the most pathetic thing in my opinion, being somebody else. That’s not the way
folks. People judge us; paradox kept rushing in as form of medication,
treatment and hey-this-is-good-stuff kinda thing. It just builds a wall upon
ourselves, so we are taught to be exactly the same as the world. The hard truth
is, it doesn’t make us feel good by pleasing somebody else.

Silence
But as I take myself as “an opener" I realize that life’s
doesn’t care whether you’re down and in pain, it still spinning and give a
hell-to-you-man look. So, why should we care about the world? Being ourselves
is the most precious thing we have right now. Why should we cover
hey-this-is-me inside and play ordinary human out there? Even God couldn’t
change us into something we don’t want to be or do. He can only show us the
door and it is us who must walk through it.

be sad, be hurtful, be happy, be narcissus, be materialistic, be
cold and cynical, be helpful, being the joke of everyone, be angry all the
time, be wise, be cheerful, be sexually attractive, be a bitch, be a holy man
more than the Pope, be naive, be childish, be workaholic, be alcoholic, be
freakin’ rich, be poor, be a thief, be a serial killer, be a single killer, be
psychotic, be political, be smart, being dumb, being odd, or just geek or
geeky geek, it’s your choice.

Life
your life to the fullest.

    Hi!! I agreed with ur opinion. Everything becomes from ourselves. Each action has a circumstance either we like it or not. The keyword is, just be happy for what we are ;)

    hey,i enjoyed reading your blog a lot…it sounds very interesting and it really happen.sometimes,we achieved so much in our career and yet we still crave for something….i also believe that we are the one who made our paths in our lives,that God has given us the choice on which road to choose…

    u r such an optimist guy. good! but don’t be too optimist with what we’ve done, because the result isn’t always similar with what we’ve predicted. there is the one who decide the life, God! so don’t forget to ask to God the best for us. the best isn’t always similar with what we want. but thought that what we had is the best for us. if we could thank to God for everything we’ve received, there is no regret than.
    i don’t mean to attack ur thought. but don’t forget God who decide everything.
    don’t mind what i said, that’s just what i thought. so just do it what u think is right. at least that’s ur choice.

    I can’t imagine how long I have waited ‘till I lost my time waiting for Carlo’s blog for I really like he’s a lot, unknowing… there’s another from the list that can be “another” one of a kind.
    I love your writings as if I can feel there’s something in you from within, I dunno but I can feel …… something strange…what matters most is..you the courage to show what’s inside you and it feels pretty good than keeping it until it burst…keep it up and may the Good Lord Bless and keep you..

    We are but passers by in this world…yeah, you’re right…live your life to the fullest coz life is too short to enjoy everything. To be able to aim for that star you have to exert your effort…use your imagination…our talent is not important but it is how you envision things in life through imagination. Keep up your good work. I love your writing.

    well nice blogs… yeah ure ryt… we can do whatever we want… we can be what we are and its nice of showing those things who really we are but then by doing those things we want.. we shud also think of other people’s feelings… i mean do whatever u want as long as u cant hurt people theres nothing wrong with that… but we always put GOD in ur daily living…

    keep up the good work!!! ur blogs inspire a lot of readers who reads ur blogs but then through ur writings u can also lead ur reader in a wrong path…

    nice one! its nice to act the way you want to be,coz we’ve got free will but always remember that what we do today, you reap tomorrow so, try consider that before you dive into something you have second thoughts. its better too not to act impulsively for we might regret soon. Let us live life to the fullest and not a FOOLest.

  23. 23    Leigh May 12, 2007 at 1:54 pm

    Just dont forget..everything still relies on the will OF God…all we have to do is to ask Him do His Will for Us…Good for you..Life is doing good as I can see…but for others…it isnt all the TIME..Just Smile to the Wolrd in whatever circumstance you are in…Stay Happy…
