Wisdom says...

The perception that your world is crashing and that you are not functional is an illusion. The world has not changed a single bit. Your perception of it shifting is causing you all these unnecessary suffering.

Just as much as I am tempted to just say, "Dun get too attach to your suffering. Just let go". I know it's not going to work for you now. Got it that you are uncertain about what's happening to you right now. Got it that you are not prepared for this to happen too. Got it that you don't have the stable platform right now. Got your struggling. Got that you're being misunderstood.

My dear, you will always be misunderstood. You will always be struggling. You will always be uncertain and you will always have self-doubt. Got it that you have difficulties expressing what you saw to others. They will always be there to accompany you in your journey of self-evolution.

What you need to get however, is that, you are equally equipped with clarity, awareness, wisdom, power and courage. If you blocked any of these, you cannot harness what lessons you need to learn from each obstacles you face. Each obstacle you are having right now, is specially designed for you such that you get what you need to get for you to move up to the next level.

The source of your suffering is that, instead of learning from these obstacles and learning from these lessons to get your "XP", you are being blinded by your haste. You think you need to resolve all these problems right away. You think you lack the power to make those happen. You think you can't do it. You think you are not ready for the world yet.

Duh, if you truly are not ready, you will not see what you see. You would not be having this conversation with me right now. It's precisely because you are ready, and that you have done your foundation right, that you have the clarity to see.

You are prepared. And you have the skills and abilities to make those happen.

BUT...

If you keep blinded by haste and feeling futile and incapable...

You will never truly harness the power within you.


The noises will always be there. Sometimes all it takes is for you to shut up, listen to these noises and observe.

These noises are there to warn you of the dangers lie ahead. They are there to keep you vigilant. Dun reject them. Watch... learn from them, instead of fighting them.


That's all i have to say to you. Well... looks like you need to pick yourself up and put things in place. Stop getting stuck. Go handle what you need to handle.

When you need me... I am always around. Dun just shout for help or feel that no one can help you. LISTEN to your voices and hear what they are warning you about. ; )

Till we chat again, go handle what you need to handle.

sigh... the day when i am not functional.

I hate knowing the consequence of not doing something and the chain of effects that is going to happen if i don't do it.

I hate the feeling of being inadequate when i chose to do it. Knowing that I can do something about it but knowing I am not good enough to deal with it while choosing to deal with it, is killing me.

I hate the feeling of choosing not to do something and watching the chain of effects taking place in front of me.

I hate the feeling of unable to express myself to show others what is it I am seeing so that they get it as well. And above all, make them stop misunderstanding me.

I hate the noises in my head trying to justify maybe it's an illusion and it's all ego talk. They are so noisy I can't locate where wisdom is and have a good conversation with her to find out what exactly is the problem.

I know wisdom has a solution for me. Just that the mind's too noisy for me to find her and talk to her. Hope she comes find me soon.


Dun just give me awareness and clarity.

Give me the wisdom and capacity to contain all these fu*king things, and transcend them.

When Yixin is super stressed, overloaded with work, at her breaking point, she realized that she...

1. Barked at anyone whom gets into her way

2. Bitched, moaned and whined (BMW) at every opportunity she has

3. Feels sorry for herself

4. Fell asleep during morning classes while trying her best to stay awake

5. Sleep very little, like 2-3 hours a day

6. Slept alot, when she really do have the opportunity to sleep

7. Camped overnight at her dearest office many times in the week so she can avoid midnight cabs

8. Went for food therapy. Eat whatever her heart desired

9. Super low tolerance for anyone whom threw additional "shit" into her space. Either end in cat fights or threw the "dun-f*ck-with-me-look"

10. Distracts herself by organizing her laptop and creating folders

11. Distracts herself by doing anything but work

12. Avoid distractions and keep working

13. Keep sighing alot

14. Not bath or changed for days

15. Avoid people and back into her zombie-like-state

16. Keep promoting her book, Pick Me Up, at every opportunity she has

17. Felt like crap and wanna threw in the towel

18. Tries her best to cheer people up. B'cos to cheer ppl. up, she gotta cheer herself up 1st.

19. Miss her family, dates, friends alot... so she took up her calendar and scheduled all these appointments for herself to welcome some fun back

20. Did her best to appear "invisible" so her profs would not recognize that she was late for morning classes

21. Tried to enroll her profs to buy her book so they would excuse her for classes. Afterall, it's for a good cause.





Did i mention it's only 21 days for January? It felt like I've just lived thru an entire year itself.

Alright... enuff distractions for me.

Back to work again...

Bet you have never tried so many roles in 1 week

The 72-hour book campaign is now officially over. Fret not if you still want to purchase the book. You may still do so at www.pickmeup-book.com Only difference is that only 20%, instead of 60% of the net proceeds will be donated to Make-A-Wish-Foundation. The remaining $$ will go towards a pooled fund to set up a social enterprise.

I really learnt a lot these 7 days ever since the whole book campaign began.

Here's a list of all the roles I've tried during these 7 days:

1) Overall in-charge for editorial team on 12 Jan, sat. As OIC, i had to ensure that the editorial team edit the 42 stories impeccably and forward to the chief editors to do up the final drafts, whilst ensuring that all these are completed within the deadline given to me

2) Blogger: Ensure the audience and our beloved supporters get the latest updates by the hour. It's a real madness blogging by the hour, i tell you. In admist of all the "shit" thrown around because ppl. are rushing deadlines, I have to learn how to stick to my deadline and not get distracted. Also, I have to be creative.

3) Editor: That was before I was suddenly made an editorial OIC. I had to edit others' stories. OMG!

4) Sales Order and Orders Fulfillment IC: I learnt how as an IC, i really should function like a commander, and delegate tasks out to ppl., instead of trying to do everything by myself >_<

5) Sales calls: Calling all my contacts and getting them to support me in the book campaign!

6) Payment tracking: This is one shitty job i wun wanna do again in the future. Imagine you have ppl paying you for the books via paypal, internet banking, atm transfer, nets, cheque, cash... and you gotta be able to account for every single transaction. TRY ACCOUNTING FOR > 2K books. I tell you again.......this is >_< JOB!

7) Sales Order Tracking: Another >_< job, after payment tracking. Gotta make sure that you know exactly how many sales are in and for what kind of books. Currently, ppl. can place orders via website, phone calls (there're many sales ppl around so you need to keep track of their sales orders), sms, and emails. You will need a consolidated sheet for all the sales that the whole team has made so far.

8) Cashier: Collecting all cash payments, nets and issuing receipts. Probably that's the only job i enjoyed doing most, issuing receipts! hahaha.... but i'm both the cashier and the payment tracking IC so that is erm... >_<

9) Welfare IC: Ensure that while the team is so caught up with meeting deadlines, I take care of their welfare by providing them with drinks, choc chip and paddle pop ice-cream!

10) Customer service: Handle all queries, orders made via sms and emails. Also, handle the COMPLAINTS! OMG! >_<

11) Fulfillment IC: Ensure ebooks are emailed to ppl. on time so they wun think that we are a scam or something

12) Public Relations: I tried (not much) calling up the radio stations to tell them that we've got such an exciting news!

I think i really have learnt A LOT in a week.
