Are you a loser?
i sat through a whole morning of meeting. by the time i walked out of it, i was bit zombie-fied. my phone's time read 12.30pm. what?! i was in there for 3.5 hours. perhaps the only reason why i was extra tired was maybe because i didn't have breakfast this morning. i was disgustingly zonked-out.

the only thing i got out of the entire motivative session was that part where my Director emphasized on: do you wana be a winner or a loser? when he did the loser bit, he placed his L-shaped fingers on his forehead. i remembered the winner - he placed both hands with 2 Ls, forming the shape of the W.

to me, a loser is really someone who's afraid to lose "kiasu"; he's unwilling to meet his problems face 2 face. he prefers to hide at one secret corner and sulk about it. he whines over it. he drinks himself drunk just so that the worries and anxieties of the world will leave him temporarily. he clings onto his girlfriend even though he doesn't love her anymore. his only reason for keeping her: he's afraid of loneliness. he complaints about everything and doesn't seem to see what's the problem. childish.

to be a winner is not to be a loser. duh? but it's terribly challenging to face up to everything else and stand firm on integrity, personal values and determination. there's a price to pay, but with great rewards too!

do you wanna win? really?
