Journal of My Joblessness!- 31 August (Wednesday)

Stick to your guns!
It's interesting to see other people's reaction to the things that I am doing/going through. While there are many who are very supportive and in fact help by giving/talking through ideas, there are also those who are either not interested, who dismiss my ideas, or worse belittle them.
It is surprising that these negative reactions are not limited to strangers and people I know superficially, but also good friends and family. While this is understandable, because everyone has their own problems/belief systems, I should be sure not to get discouraged by such reactions.
Stick to your guns!

Things done:
- Great yoga session in the morning, followed by Yah Kun breakfast.
- Started to put together documents for my visa application to France. I'll need to figure out my travel dates next... things are getting serious. Nice!
- Started working on Stage 2 of the MDS interview process. The first exercise, on para-diddles, totally blew me out of the water. Luckily, the following exercises weren't as difficult, otherwise I might have just given up. However, as of now I'm still quite optimistic, and I'm looking forward to giving it my best shot!
- Good gym session with the Faz. Still not a big fan of hitting the gym at night. Oh well... let's see how long this lasts.
Lessons Learnt:
Stick to doing what you believe you should be doing... the things that give you shivers and challenge your limits. Don't let others make you doubt yourself. In most cases, they are just projecting their own insecurities onto you.
Stick to your guns!
