These days, I've spending around eight to nine hours facing Pyk. If you don't know who Pyk is, he's an Acer Aspire in Silver/White hues. But it's only now that I finally opened my blog again! Hooray! Right now, I'm supposed to be curling up on my bed or watching the numerous DVDs I have purchased since God knows when. My bum life has officially ceased since mid-July and I am thankful to the two big men of my life; the one from above and the one who raised me.
I only have two career goals. 1) Being a Flight Attendant; I do believe that most girls dream of this, too. That's basing from the sizable crowd I have experienced to Open Days of QR, 5J and PR. 2) Working in the corporate world of a big company. I chased number 1 earlier this year but I was vertically challenged. So I did get my second choice and with that it's time to FOCUS.
(Entry has no relation to outfit look. Just the word FOCUS)
I resigned from my aviation-related job earlier this year because I wanted something better for my self. Maybe 2012 was my year for fun and trying out new things and giving a shot of what the real world feels like. Check, check and check for all of those. It dawned me that what I was doing wasn't exactly making me happy. So I left. Over the five months of staying at home and being jobless, I said to myself "2013 is not yet over; there's still time to make this my year and do what makes me happy."
When July ended, I was 22, I had my second choice job and everything else. I wanted to simplify everything by focusing about life. I have stumbled upon the website of Joshua Becker, Becoming Minimalist and read about his list of ten things to focus on in life.
Your Possessions - Too many material possessions complicate our lives to a greater degree than we ever give them credit. They drain our bank account, our energy, and our attention. They keep us from the ones we love and from living a life based on our values. If you will invest the time to remove nonessential possessions from your life, you will never regret it.
Your Time Commitments – Most of us have filled our days full from beginning to end with time commitments: work, home, kid’s activities, community events, religious endeavors, hobbies… the list goes on. When possible, release yourself from the time commitments that are not in line with your greatest values.
Your Goals – Reduce the number of goals you are intentionally striving for in your life to one or two. By reducing the number of goals that you are striving to accomplish, you will improve your focus and your success rate. Make a list of the things that you want to accomplish in your life and choose the two most important. When you finish one, add another from your list.
Your Negative Thoughts – Most negative emotions are completely useless. Resentment, bitterness, hate, and jealousy have never improved the quality of life for a single human being. Take responsibility for your mind. Forgive past hurts and replace negative thoughts with positive ones.
Your Debt – If debt is holding you captive, reduce it. Start today. Do what you've got to do to get out from under its weight. Find the help that you need. Sacrifice luxury today to enjoy freedom tomorrow.
Your Words – Use fewer words. Keep your speech plain and honest. Mean what you say. Avoid gossip.
Your Artificial Ingredients – Avoid trans fats, refined grain (white bread), high-fructose corn syrup, and too much sodium. Minimizing these ingredients will improve your energy level in the short-term and your health in the long-term. Also, as much as possible, reduce your consumption of over-the-counter medicine – allow your body to heal itself naturally as opposed to building a dependency on substances.
Your Screen Time – Focusing your attention on television, movies, video games, and technology affects your life more than you think. Media rearranges your values. It begins to dominate your life. And it has a profound impact on your attitude and outlook. Unfortunately, when you live in that world on a consistent basis, you don’t even notice how it is impacting you. The only way to fully appreciate its influence in your life is to turn them off.
Your Connections to the World - Relationships with others are good, but constant streams of distraction are bad. Learn when to power off the blackberry, log off facebook, or not read a text. Focus on the important, not the urgent. A steady flow of distractions from other people may make us feel important, needed, or wanted, but feeling important and accomplishing importance are completely different things.
Your Multi-Tasking - Research indicates that multi-tasking increases stress and lowers productivity. while single-tasking is becoming a lost art, learn it. Handle one task at a time. Do it well. And when it is complete, move to the next.

Tell me what else can I focus on in life and tell me what you focus on yours?
