Solitary Lives

1 – Transforming dissatisfaction at work
Be content with the work you have. So if you fail (do not get the promotion you aim for), that is where one’s attitude and the practice of contentment can make the difference between anger, resentment and frustration, and a calmer and happier attitude.

Applause to MacDonald’s, for adding (again) healthier sides to their menu! Corn, salad, apple dippers are added, all in an effort to promote a more balanced diet with added portions of vegetable and fruits in our meals. Hooray! Guiltless Beef Fantastic with its relatively low 310 kilo-calories and 3 g fats, unbelievable huh.

Relating back to my blog topic, people these days live pretty much on a solitary life. At the end of the working day when you have that sudden crave for shopping, you head off to shopping malls on your own. Or after exercising, you have your own dinner at the nearby coffeeshop or food court. During lunchtime, if you can’t find your lunch kaki you just drop by the nearest café or eatery. Taking lessons, getting gifts, checking out new places, running errands, all to be done on your own. I suppose that’s how an adult life works out to be. It is tough arranging a time convenient for all, and weekends are reserved for your loved ones. And often, you get things done more efficiently when alone, with more focus on the tasks on hand. Modern living.

Checkpoint: With more than half of 2006 passed by, have you accomplished or even on your path to achieving your goals for this year?
