What you will learn.

Madrid, Spain, Burgundy Street.

Found this on the web and just thought it is worth sharing :)

I’ve learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them;
I’ve learned that no matter how much I care, some people just don’t care back;
I’ve learned that it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.
I’ve learned that you can get by on charm, for about fifteen minutes. After that, you’d better know something;
I’ve learned that either you control your attitude or it controls you.
I’ve learned that no matter how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades and there had better be something else to take it’s place.
I’ve learned that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you’re downhill are the ones to help you get back up.
I’ve learned that sometimes when I’m angry I have the right to be angry.
I’ve learned that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.
I’ve learned that just because someone doesn’t love you the way you want them to doesn’t mean that they don’t love you with all they have.
I’ve learned that maturity had more to do with what types of experiences you’ve had and what you’ve learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you’ve celebrated.
I’ve learned that your family won’t always be there for you.
I’ve learned that no matter how good a friend is, they’re going to hurt you every once in a while.
I’ve learned that it isn’t always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to forgive yourself.
I’ve learned that no matter how bad your heart is broken, the world doesn’t stop for your grief.
I’ve learned that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.
I’ve learned that just because two people argue, it doesn’t mean they don’t love each other. And just because they don’t argue, it doesn’t mean they do.
I’ve learned that we don’t have to change friends if we understand that friends change.
I’ve learned that two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different.
I’ve learned that no matter how you try to protect your children, they will eventually get hurt and you will get hurt in the process.
I’ve learned that your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don’t even know you.
I’ve learned that it’s hard to determine where to draw the line between being nice and not hurting people’s feelings and standing up for what you believe.

dream big.

Thought of the day: You can do anything you want, but you can't be everything you want.




Hi there!
Lately I have these thoughts on a so-called 'Opportunity Cost'.In layman term, it is actually the things you need to sacrifice for what you're doing right now.

For me, I'm studying business.. SO I can't possibly studying at medical school or law school. Well maybe geniuses might be able to do it.. But not me.


And I applied it to what I possibly want right now..

Well have you ever thought that you can actually do anything IF you want it.. I mean it might take some time and/or money.. But you can do it.

By you being able to do it doesn't mean that you will excel in it. Thus my second point is you can't be everything that you want.

If you are really passionate, ready to persevere, and put your thoughts in it, there is no doubt that you can do it. IF the conditions are suitable for you.

Let's have an example..
I'm currently 5'3 and 46kg. 

Can I be model for high end brands? NO.
Why? I'm not tall and skinny enough

What if I really put my thoughts and everything into it?
Well i might go for surgery to make myself taller (I've heard of it before. They will like break the bones on your calf and insert some metal parts to extend your bone WTF).But do you think I will go to that extent? HELL NO
But I can try at least.. to go for agencies etc or apply for ANTM lol

Luckily I have no interest of being one. LOL 

What if there are people who r actually in this condition?
Well.. You may consider the surgery (at your own risk).
But I think that we are here for a purpose.. And if it's really meant for you I don't think extreme measures are needed. Just keep on hoping and trying and there will be a way.

So.. Remember that there is NO BOUNDARIES and you can actually do anything you want :) Because it is up to you.

But you can't be EVERYTHING that you want. 
Have you ever heard of 'Jack of all trades, Master of none'?
If you don't know well it's about someone who is moderately good at everything, but not an expert in anything.

There is a purpose for each person in this world. Try out new things, and maybe you will realize what you like the most and what you felt is meant for you. If you've realized it, go ahead and achieve it!

Remember, when you believe you can definitely  achieve!!

Have a nice day!
