DECIDE

An Insightful View from Philosopher, Educationist and Entrepreneur
Jimmy Teo


DECIDE

In anything we do
For leisure & pleasure,
We must remember
That we can never be fully satisfied:
Defects will inevitably surface,
And people will vex us.

Nothing in this world is perfect,
Everything has a time-line, an expiry date;
We decide to either relish or perish
Through our thoughts & deeds.

The secret:
Take charge,
Change 'pressures' to 'pleasures'
Difficulties to opportunities.

Treat everyone with tenderness
Be considerate
Try not to inconvenience anyone where possible
Appreciate & compliment people's good works
Always willing to help, not willing to disrupt
No fear of hard work
Eager to smile & laugh -
Creating heaven on earth,
Not hell.

1409 hr/Sun/24.9.16/Bus 197 for Bedok Mall after church.
