There are times when we just want to eat
junk food, greasy fried food, cheesy pizza, fatty food, ice cream, pretty cupcakes, apple pie, chocolate, etc
Sometimes we eat just because we're bored, or unhappy.
and if just gets worse if you're on a diet, coz you just want more of it.
So here's what you should say to yourself :
"I've got other important things to do in my life, exciting things, I'm living my life to the fullest.
My priority is to make my dreams come true and be happy in the journey.
I do enjoy good food, but more importantly, I choose to eat healthily.
So No.... I'm not missing out on eating junk food, they only make me gain weight and add to my cholesterol level. and yes they taste great for 5 minutes but they make me feel way too full and I'd feel uncomfortable, and not to mention feeling guilty for the next 2 hours.
I find happiness from other things in life, my job that I now enjoy and love, my accomplishments, shared laughter with families and friends, those are my source of happiness and my priorities in life"
Realize this and hopefully food won't be the focus point in your life anymore.
yes, you should enjoy your food, but you shouldn't let it be the source of your happiness.
you should NOT let it ruin your health and your fit-ness.
Focus on your dream life, Eating is not an escape from your boring daily life.
If your life is boring, change it !!
If you crave something so bad, and that particular food won't endanger yourself, allow yourself to eat it in small amount, but balance it with lots of fresh salad or vegetables or fruits.
Be smart and stay healthy.
and Focus on your life goal :)

What to do when I have so much to do and so little time
So you have tons of things to do
more and more are piling
and there seem to be not enough time to finish them all
you're basically ovewhelmed !!
what to do ?
most of us would try to get out of it
try to escape from it, to postpone, to do it later
guess what..... doing it later doesn't make it easier
and it burdens you.... you may not think about it when you're watching TV/going out aka postponing
but it's there...... you feel guilty about not doing it and then there's more to do so you get stressed out more.
am i right ?
and doing it later doesn't make it go away either.
it won't vanish into thin air,
nobody else is gonna do it for you
so.... you have to eventually do it....
so delaying it won't do you any good because in the end, u realize that u just got more work to do and it's just adding stress to you.
so Here's what you should do :
1. Start doing it !!
yup... just do what you can.... start small... baby step right...
Know that you can't do it all at once, so you start by doing what you can
Don't think about the total amount of work you've got lined up for you.
Just focus on what you can do right now
Calm down, and
Do efficiently, Do your best and Don't rush it.
Just do the best that you can.
Hey.... you might as well enjoy the process :)
and by actually doing your To-Do-List / Work / Homework / Projects / etc etc, you feel good about yourself, you feel like you've accomplished something.... yup...there's more to do, but you feel good that you've done some of it.
“Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.”
St. Francis of Assisi
2. There'll always be unexpected things to do that will just add up to your" overwhelming" pile of work.
Be it the weather, a strike, earlier deadline, someone got a fever, etc etc
Don't stress out, stressing out is useless.....
Just do your best, efficiently.....
If it seem impossible, then try.... just try....
Take things lightly.... they're just small challenges that makes the journey more exciting
adrenaline rush, right ? ;p
sucks sometimes, but not all bad :)
3. Get help
(what ? u mean help from the experts? ;p ... no...)
if you can, ask for assistance from friends and families,
(swallow that pride...uhuh...)
Sometimes asking for help from others actually makes others feel good about themselves, yup...they feel good from helping you....It's just how it is....
Ask yourself, when you help someone out of their problem, How do you feel ?
Does that make you feel like you're a good person ?
Does that make you feel better about yourself ?
It does, doesn't it.
So...when you're stuck and really feel like you need help, go and ask for help :) it's okay....
just don't abuse the situation and ask for needless help.... that's annoying ;p
4. Know when it's time to rest
Don't push yourself too far
If you get sick.... you won't be able to do anything for days....
so Be smart, Work your best, but know when to rest and Rest !!
There it is....
Now Deep Breath .....
and
Face the world with a calming confidence :)
You can do it !

What to do when I'm bored and lazy and don't want to do anything
here's the thing
Most of us know what we're supposed to do
so.... to live life or to waste life
it's your choice !
we always postpone and procrastinate
"I'll do it later"
"I'll do it tomorrow"
how about "I'll do it never" ?
that's why in 5 years time you'll still be here while everyone else is closer to their dreams.
they move on.... you....you're just stuck there because you're .... lazy ?
you're left behind.... so way behind
No accomplishments, No successes, No Life, Nothing
because you wasted it all away.... for what ? watching TV ?
Stop thinking "there's always tomorrow" coz there may not be even a "later"
you'll never know what happen in the future....
yea yea yea cliche
but it's true....
don't wait until one day you have nothing left, just regrets....
so what if your job suck ?
your life is hard ?
school's boring ?
then UNDO it !!!
make it fun, interesting, exciting
learn from it !!!
Don't fear life and its challenges !!
Face 'em and Triumph !!
so you think you're not good enough,
you're not smart enough
you're not talented enough
well... WORK HARD on it
and LOVE the process !!! it's supposed to be FUN
WE'RE ALL GOOD IN SOMETHING.... find what it is !!
We're all meant to shine !!!
or are you just afraid of rejection ?
afraid that you may not be good enough to do the things that you really wanna do ?
Do you really think that low of yourself ?
Do you really think that you are that BAD ?
well... wake up !!!
Everyone's talented !!
Others are good because they keep at it, they work hard and they love the whole process.
Competitions make them become better instead of feeling worried and insecure.
and There's enough for everyone !!
So Do !!
“Hide not your talents.
They for use were made.
What's a sundial in the shade.”
-Benjamin Franklin
Don't fear failure before you even start
Don't hide because you're afraid that you might get rejected or laughed at
Don't be afraid to do what you love, what you're meant to do
Do
Now
Be thankful that you still have the chance to do
Have fun in your journey to achieve your dream
Work on it and Have Fun
because that's just the way it is
Live your Life
Shine
Do
Now

What to do when I'm procrastinating my New Year's resolution ?
(aka what to do when I'm a lazy-ass-procrastinator all the time ?)
Yup... it's new year
the time for our New Years resolutions
the time for any resolutions
the time to "start"
but have you ? have we ? have I ?
No !!!
I just get so lazy and I keep on procrastinating
okay... quick recap
Last year...a dear family member passed away and I promised I'd "start"
(start working hard to achieve my dreams and make my parents proud, start being on time, start to stay "awake", just start on everything)
so I did start..... not full on though
A few months back, a 5 minute earthquake, maybe 7.2 richter scale
I said that I wasn't ready to die, so I'll "start"
but I still watch to much TV and still websurf just a tad bit too much
Every now and then, at night, I'd realize that I haven't accomplished much in life and I promise myself and ask Him to give me more time to live my life to the fullest
Every morning, I wake up rather late and yes.... I get lazy to start.
I still sit around too much doing things that are not very productive.
So now.... I'm not going to tell myself what to do when I'm procrastinating.
I'm going to act like a mother that's lose all hope towards her kid, but who still believes in her little girl and is still waiting until she changes into a better person.
""You've been given all the luxury and comfort in life, yet you choose to just sit around waiting for wonderful things to happen to you, you choose to procrastinate every single day. How are you not ashamed of yourself ? If you don't change, one day will come where you'll regret everything in life and it'll be too late"
Now....
The time is now, don't sit around until everything's taken away from you in a blink of an eye where you're left with absolutely nothing.
Live your life now.
Change requires a whole lot of hard work, patience, a strong will and motivation, determination, perseverance
and it can get lonely too, but you've had a whole life of easiness.
So now is the time to change, be discipline, be hard working, be succesful, be enthusiastic, be kind, be humble, be happy, be meaningful, be useful, be ready when the time comes.
Be someone that your parents and God can be proud of.
The choice is yours and I'm sure you'll make the right one :)
