storing sunny and cloudy memories

Just would like to capture my day for my own reference on how my normal day went.. 5:45 a.m. - Alarm went on, snooze button of course! 6:15 a.m. - Woke up panic and dashed to the toilet, brushed my teeth, washed my face and changed. 6:34 a.m. - Start my car engine and head to the gym. 7:31 a.m. - Arrived parking lot and made my way to the gym. 7:45 a.m. - Signed in gym and changed in the changing room. 7:52 a.m. - Signed in sky bar pool and swam 10 laps. 8:15 a.m. - Made my way back to the changing room and shower. 9:05 a.m. - Walked back to the office, bought my low fat flat white and had my morning ciggie while enjoying my coffee. 9:30 a.m. - On laptop and start to check emails and prioritise what to do in the morning, sort out my daily and weekly meeting. 10:00 a.m. - Start working on programme for delegates from Australia. 11:30 a.m. - Meeting on posters and designs for office. 12:20 p.m. - Find out who's available for lunch. 1:10 p.m. - Head out for lunch with my

Last 2 weeks, I had a great opportunity to attend a course on Business Evaluation. It's partly because of my current role that I need to assess business whether or not we should invest in it, profitable or not, etc. It all comes down to "Strategic Intent". It's what you want from it. When only I thought it's difficult and complicated, it's actually not at all. Company A produces 500 barrels and sells it for $5 million, company B produces 800 barrels and sells it for $20 million. Your strategic intent - grow more volume. Not that complicated, choose company B. Everything comes down to your intention, strategic intent. Choosing between black shoe or blue shoe, your intention? Comfort or style. Bottom line, set your strategic intention and go for it!

with the current situation, I think I have made the right decision giving all options that I have exhausted. it may not be the easiest thing for me to do, but surely it is the right thing to do. I had a day to myself to think yesterday. Self-reflect of that happened 16 years ago, I think I have recovered from whatever chaos that I had in my life. Having the memories with me reminded how painful it was when everyone turned against you and you are left with nothing but guilt.  I have told myself that I will never ever be in the same situation ever again.  I am proud to tell myself that this time, I put aside my principles and character and do the right thing.

there are some things in life that we get to choose, and some things are just beyond our control. evidently, death is something we don't get to choose. only He knows when and how. It is He (Allah) Who gives life, and causes death, and to Him you (all) shall return. سورة يونس , Yunus, Chapter #10, Verse #56
