I have never been a morning person, that will kill me if I get up soooo early. I had an online course last Friday -- How to find your passion. It started at 4:00AM Melbourne Time, crazy. I was scared if I couldn’t open Webinar(it was alive and worldwide), I would miss the class. So I set up alarm o’clock at 3:40AM, 3:45,3:50…

 

After fulfilling my dream, my material life is being great, I have had everything I wanted: an accounting job in Aussie Company, a lovely daughter, living in an apartment with awesome harbour view, travelling around wherever I wanna go ,dressed nicely with fashionable clothes and leather shoes on,  there’s no problem for me buy some luxury brand things. To be honest, I couldn’t feel fulfillment and excitement as the time I was doing part time cleaning job and struggling with my Uni study. I felt empty in some way.

 

I was suffering by breaking up good friendship with 2 best friends. One friend, who I told most my secrets, was supposed to be the best one I trusted with,  because something happened through texting message, then we never talked to each other ever since. And another one, I have put great effort on for being a good friend, again, texting broke our relationship, many times I sent message, it took a few days to get back, I could not stand being ignored. Friendship was becoming weak until no contact at all. I wondered why it was soo hard to maintain a good friendship with others. Real good friends are getting less and less….

 My heart was broken, I was deeply depressed, Albert Einstein said: if you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or things. That’s so true.

 

Nobody could cure my mental illness except myself, one day I bumped into one article, I was fascinated about it, then I entered my email address, ever since , I received lifehack articles per day , I read all the motivational quotes and impressive articles. It helped me getting better, I felt much much happier, I have remembered forgiveness by Nelson Mandela: “As I walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to my freedom, I knew if I didn’t leave my bitterness and hatred behind, I'd still in prison.” I love it so much!!!  I typed this sentence on my computer over and over until it was totally on my mind. I got released completely. It was not worth spending time hate someone, found out your hobbies and interests, just to be yourself. Reading lifehack articles was becoming one of my habits, it like I was surrounded by many brilliant people, nice, friendly, kind and honest.  

 

One day, I found one article regarding “Your dream”, that’s interesting, I was completely lost myself since I had a job, I needed a new dream, a new goal. I searched the author of the articles, it was like especially written for me, I was inspired： “Life starts at the end of comfort zone”.  Yes, I have already on the peak of the mountain, I need experience something new. “ You’re the average of the five people you spend the most time with” well, let’s get rid of toxic people, who let you down, discourage you, be surrounded with supported ones, who will help you realize your dream and your goals.

 

The most exciting moment after I have done “30 powerful questions to find your passion”, I recalled happiest moment when I was in the uni learning English with friendly people surrounded, I was decided starting improving English.  And it also taught me how to declutter my life to make room for actually matters, then I spent time on cleaning my room… and I started practicing handwriting…..

 

One morning, I received email, it was a promotion for entering an online class “Design a life you love in 6 days” USD 79(discount price), I was hesitated whether pay or not, “ I am getting better my life after reading the author’s articles and gradually turning bad habits into better ones, is it necessary for me pay money to have a class again?” One day passed, I couldn’t make decision. The following day, I received one more letter, there were 2 more hours left, if I didn’t register, USD119 was required later on. I asked myself again: “Do I really need this course or not, actually, I am not totally figure out what my new goal is, it might give me some hint if I have a class. If it is useless, just regard it waste USD79, that’s not much money, I can afford.” Then I tried to pay through paypal, there was error occurred, I was discouraged: “forget it.” In a while, I received one email: “ I received a blank letter from you, do you want help” “ sorry, I couldn't make payment through paypal.” “ no worries, we can wait until tomorrow, you discount rate will still be effective.” “ Sounds nice, cool, I will try again tomorrow.”

The lesson was started during my holiday in China, I had 3 lessons, and the video couldn’t be opened up in China, so I waited until I was back to Melbourne.

 

You know, what happened after I have done a lot of paperwork:

I am becoming fulfilled, it reminded me the time back to the Uni, with lots of energy, active and motivated.  I have started my new life again:

 

I have designed an ideal me, here is my plan:

l  Being elegant, with perfect body shape: I am spending 1 hour per day doing exercise: eg dancing, swimming, gym , running etc. cooking by myself, to be more healthier, eat less fast food.

l  Making my room tidy and clean: 2X 25 minutes/ day for doing cleaning and get rid of unnecessary stuff.

l  Improving handwriting:(my handwriting is horrible ) : 30 minutes/day

l  High standard English:  Writing English Blog 1/week, and give some comments, make it total 7/week, reading 1 English book/week.

l  Contact with friends and family on a regular basis.

l  I still need 8 hours/day working in the company, and 2 hours on the way return, I will go to bed at 11:30PM.

 How I could afford so much time:

That’s what I have learned from class: 4Ds: Do it, Delegate it, Dump it and Dream it.

I have made a list, put the Dream it and Do it on my priority list, I dumped the negative thoughts, which has wasted a lot of my time, I spend less time in checking wechat and facebook posting, no time for gossip.

Now I am having streamlined life do something which is really matters to me, I am becoming a better version of myself.

Being elegant : a better version of me, doing 1 hour exercise/day, keep fit, everyone can be a person who you want.
