Well,not so much a correction, rather, posting the FULL quote. (missing a few lines in the original quote post)
This was also mentioned by this motivational talk person during this recent "strategic management offsite" at Avilion, Port Dickson(very awesome by the way)
-Marianne Williamson
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

Dreams are not for the faint hearted
Ever think about your dreams?
I'm talking about the goals in your life.
The BIG PICTURE
Maybe it's a little dream, like "I will get into shape this year"
or a big one like, "I want to be a billionaire"
or an even bigger one "I want to teach Generation Z that books are better than computers"
or a downright funny one: "I vow to be less vague about stuff"
Having a get together with my friends and talking a little about goals in life got me coining this awesome quote that I thought of on the spot.
"Dreams are not for the faint hearted"
(Googled it as well just to make sure. such is the power of Google)
Because, to pursue your dreams, you're gonna need alot of hard work, sacrifice(time, social life, relationships), yada yada yada, especially if you've taken the path of a professional (doctor, lawyer, accountant)
You're thinking that perhaps you may not have it all like a loving spouse, 2 kids, big house with lawn, a dog,excellent social life, and when you have achieved the dreams in your life and you look beside you to find..your cell phone/blackberry buzzing away to tell you that you are needed in surgery/the boardroom..you're gonna feel empty inside.
But trust yourself that those are achievable ALONG the way of pursuing your dreams.
Some CAN have it all.Why not you?
Perhaps those who have it all understand the give and take of life, or those once consumed with work understood that they have achieved enough to walk away from the job to start a different dream.
As I posted a motivational picture before
"If you are looking for the love of your life, stop;
They will be waiting for you when you start doing things you love"
Perhaps in ways much more different than you dreamed of, I might add
What is my dream?
Well,ask me over a cup of tea, and then I'll tell you my big picture.

When I heard this from my colleague (a certain fag called Ady)
I told him, this is so going on my blog (welcome 21st century)
Context (talking about his family chiropractor who has corrected him, his dad, his mom)
Quote:he even did my girlfriend!
Bravo champ, Bravo.

Being sick sucks
Well,
I have been sick the past few days,with an inkling of a sore throat on Monday the prelude of what would be a nasty fever,followed by sore throat and ultimately with a combination of work and sickness,has put quite a strain on me the last few days.Phew
The last couple of days, I have been having a bit of cough to go with the lovely fever and sore throat,with a copious amount of phlegm being expended in the process.
I have a half broken toe-nail from futsal a couple of weeks ago(ouchies)
But I am not dead yet:)
I actually had a grand plan for my Sunday
Wake up,get a hair cut, go to the gym and sweat a bit.Come back and watch Transformers 2-Revenge of the Fallen on my 23 inch Samsung Monitor (yeaps,be jealous ya'll with your puny monitors.blekkkk)
Well,I at least got the haircut.skipped the gym coz i feel a little fatigued (this is coz I stayed up to watch the Real Madrid game.Sadly,Mourinho hasn't been doing a good job on Cristiano Ronaldo.That guy thinks he can win games on his own.Didn't see him try too many passes to anyone but Row Z of the Levante Stadium)
Anyhow, we'll see how it goes tomorrow, coz as of now I am still coughing sporadically and even bounding up the stairs already tercungap-cungap.how to treadmill like this?
Even worse,lets say I'm carrying a pair of dumbbells over my head,and suddenly start coughing,lord help me if they fall on my face(i can prevent it by carrying light weights,like,2.5 kg's.but,not much of a workout there right?)
Anyways
In fact,I am quite enjoying the challenges that are ahead of me in work and getting my health back up to speed.
Here's something a friend of mine(can't remember who) shared a while ago and is nice and inspiring when you're feeling down(well,at least it got me pumped up.But i'm a sucker for inspirational words)
Kinda like how I'm feeling right now. Taking charge of my life.

I love it when a plan comes together
There are only a few words that I can begin this post with
Dum. dum. dumm.., da da dummmmm
(that's the A-Team theme song btw)
The A-Team is just so many levels of awesome,I just had to go "DAMN this is awesome! at the end of the movie.
If Transformers was the breakthrough movie of 2007, Avatar of 2009, The A-Team is taking the cake for 2010 for me
I'd even have to rate it higher than Transformers!
(Ten years ago / In 1972), a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... The A-Team.

The 2010 movie poster.
Dripping with action movie goodness.
Gotta say,a pretty good opening sequence, explaining how the team gets together in Mexico.
With Hannibal getting beaten up by Mexican Police, B.A grabbing his Van,Face in a bathrobe stuck in a ring of tires, and Murdock treating B.A. and going crazy on a medical Helicopter
To quote Hannibal "There is no coincidence, only a plan"
This movie is great fun with some crazy stunts, quotable quotes, and of course, the good ol' humour that just tops it all off into a good wholesome package.
If you go to the Wiki page,it has a pretty good summary of the stuff they blow up and the crime they didn't commit,and their path to clear their name.
These guys specialize in the RIDICULOUS!
What's an action movie without some eye candy to go with it?
Jessica Biel delivers in spades with her performance as the hard-as-nails-but-dayamn-is-she-hot Captain Sosa
She is definitely my first pick to be Wonder Woman since she oozes sexy and strong.
Hope that role doesn't go to just another eye candy girl (read Megan Fox)
All in all,if you love a good action comedy flick with witty 1 liners and some great eye candy to boot
THIS IS IT (god bless Michael Jackson,the King of Pop)

The class of 80's and the class of 10's. Gotta say that 2010 got it right with the cast and they delivered big time.
I just love it when a plan comes together
However,just a teensy bit disappointed that B.A. didn't deliver a "I pity the fool" line
Also,is it me or does the Faceman of the 80's look a bit like Steve Carell?
Please go to http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/The_A_Team and grab some quotable quotes from there.I know I will

A&W - not so fast food
Gotta hand it to Ivan,my colleague, to come up with a quotable quote of the day.
While we were lining up to have us some A&W today for lunch,there was only ONE cash register open.
So you could imagine there was a bit of a line going on there and it wasn't moving along quite fast.
Since we were bored, we started talking nonsense, and I saw that they only had 1 pocket of fries left waiting for its' poor fate.
So Ivan,being the full of crap guy,says:
Do you know why it's called A&W? It's coz you Ask & Wait. When you Ask for your fries,you gotta Wait for it.
So now,A&W has got a tagline that the funny t-shirt guy in Central Market can use.
I guess I should share it with him and take a cut of the sales of the shirt.

Quotes of the day
I really have to hand it to my colleague to supply a few quotes of a section I'd like to start up
He's really full of crap,and he supplied me with these beauties today:
1)When asked to buy me lunch at Pepper Lunch (coz he lost a bet)
"Dude,I'm already broke. Do you want me to be broken?"
2)When I randomly sang a song at the carpark
(looks at me) "Dude,I might get so stunned that I'll slam you in the face man. You're so random, I can be random too."
3)When commenting that he's really full of shit
"Dude,I'm not full of shit, it's just that I didn't flush"
