The Devil Only Knows
One Word
When we were younger, much younger, we have crazy plans to conquer the world, big dreams to own everything under the sky, travel the world, float in the sky with colorful balloons…
When I was in my primary school days, I told myself that I will work hard and top the class. THE DEVIL VISITED. I started to back out… he told me, “BUT there are others in class how are SMARTER than you, you can never be the TOP, aim to be in the top 10.” I didn’t top my primary school, I did fairly well, not extremely disappointing nor idealistic.
When I was in my secondary school days, I told myself that I will ace all my subjects. THE DEVIL VISITED I started to back out… he told me, “BUT you are never good in science, you hated science! Aim a pass!” I did well my languages, humanities and both my mathematics, I flunk my pure chemistry and just manage to pass my physics. Not an ideal result and I didn’t want to pursue my A’s.
When I was in my University days, I told myself that my past results don’t matter anymore, I must look forward and think about my future. After my studies, I will be applying what I have learnt in Business studies with my degree, to help my dad, along with my 2 brothers, to recreate and expand my dad’s business.
THE DEVIL VISITED I started to back out… he told me “I’m too young, my brothers can do the job, I’m too inexperienced, I’m a risk” I completed my BSc(Hons) in Business Management, spoke to my parents a couple of times to discuss about my future route and they suggested that I do what I really like, follow my passion and strive out there in the society. The DEVIL lost. I found myself a perfect job, got embarked onto my passion and my dreams were rediscovered. I have never been this clear in my life as to what I want, I felt great.
Mr. Devil, I’m not too young and never too inexperience to take on a big journey! I am in fact on this BIG journey now, though I’m not helping my dad in the business, but in the long run, I will be the support for the company in terms of knowledge, skills, mindset and finance. I never see myself so much importance in the family, I will not let my parents down because of my negligence to my dad’s company, in fact, I am just bringing and squeezing the very best out of me to prove my excellence and working capability, and there are so much more I can contribute!
Mr. Devil, I hereby declare you out of my life because I can do whatever that I want to do, nothing is impossible and I am busy! I have got dreams to Fulfill!
