"If you want to achieve something, do not fear the work." - T. HANSON
Humans are beautiful creatures with ugly traits. That is one ugly truth about us. Sure we want to achieve a lot of things but only a few of them we can really accomplish. For ugly reasons, we fear the work; and for uglier reasons, we idle to work.
I wasn't born yesterday, in fact, I am passed half way through my retirement, and though I've seen a lot of hardworking people, I've seen idle and irresponsible people equal enough as well.
What bothers me about these people who idle around at their jobs is the fact that I can't quite understand the sense of them being alive. Its like they walk here on earth just to merely exist at all, with no sense of purpose and the sense of becoming sensible and productive at all.
If you go to work just to play, I suggest, why not just quit your job because I can assure you that there's a lot of more promising and deserving someone out there to replace you.
Sometimes I wonder what's going on in that feeble mind at the end of the day.
Does it ever bother you that you just spent a whole day procrastinating and playing idle games on your cellphone, and wasted the whole 24 hours without a purpose of living at all?
Does it bother you that you're wasting your youth without trying to achieve something important to look back to after 20 years and be proud of it still?
Does it bother you that you are not inspiring enough to anyone not even to your own self?
Does it bother you that you are too self-centered that you cannot even contribute a thing at all?
Does it bother you that you think you're way too cool but the truth is - YOU ARE THAT ONE BIG JOKE THAT NO ONE IS LAUGHING?
Can you even look at yourself at the mirror and be proud of what and who you really are?
At the end of the day, I believe that it is important to ask yourself if you've done something good today.
Because as what I always say, the best part of being home at the end of the day is when you lay down and still can't sleep because you are reminiscing every moment of the day you just had. Those little moments that you know worth the while. Those little things that could be so minute to the universe but it meant something to someone.
And doing your job, being responsible, being productive could make a difference maybe not to the whole universe, but to someone else's life.
You'll never know how your little acts could save or kill a mortal soul everyday. So let us be mindful of our duties and responsibilities.
Lastly, I am not a perfect person, but I am proud to say that everyday, I am becoming a much better version of myself than who and what I am yesterday, for reasons, I keep my passion to learn burning, and my eagerness to achieve something kept me going... AND I DON'T FEAR THE WORK AND NEITHER DO I IDLE AT IT.
