Life in the Fast Lane

Sure to make you lose your mind.

Punching above your weight when no one expects it is rather easy, especially if you have SOME substance. I'm starting to have my belief swayed in terms of me having that substance in the first place.

There have been some harsh lessons that have been learnt over the past couple of weeks. There have been some about dreams, some about reality, and some about everything in between. So I shall attempt to start listing them in here, as I have been inspired by "diaries" that I have made for myself, as well as for my father in 2005...

Dreams

  • Your dreams are meant for you only. Not for other people. A dream of mine that has recently been shattered is the one that I have left behind. There are just too many unknowns for a person to develop something that isn't seen face to face everyday. Perhaps it is preparation for what is up ahead...
Reality
  • I am nowhere good enough compared to what I want to be. There are many more new things to learn,  and that curve has been steepened by the fact that I set myself 2 years back via inflection in Melbourne. The reality is that I can't hide my mistakes anymore, and I have to constantly overperform in order to keep up with what I'm meant to project. 
I have just turned 24. I am the youngest among my work peers, yet the people that I associate as I am closest to are all younger than me. Perhaps I am really lost after all. However, I do like this format. I will probably stick to this until I can't come up with a dream/reality anymore.
