Goal vs. Process
2009/06/28 08:13
To achieve the goal you set out to achieve is definitely important, but, sometimes, the process of accomplishing it is more interesting and more meaningful because you will probably have gained more experience and knowledge through it.  I like your way of executing your plan, Helen.

Dear 子建大哥,

First of all, I would like to appreciate your thoughful understanding of my concept behind words.

I did struggle between the ideals and reality, dreams and reality, inner voice and outer recognition and even self-satisfation or others' demands or requests.

Actually, I am old enough to make the choices which satisfy myself instead of appealing to others' expectations.

Lots of people might question me for the reason why I didn't spend more time doing research or writing something more productive. Hahaha, honestly speaking, I used to suffer and struggle  a lot from the continuous questions and criticism of mine quite often.

Lately, I start to appreciate my crazy thoughts since I regard them as the precious and  beautiful gifts I present to myself at the age of 34. I know if I don't note down or record those silly thoughts, those previous and precious thoughts of mine at the age of 34 will just be gone with the wind as time goes by.

I have achieved lots of goals what others set for me or I set for myself, and it is high time for me to enjoy myself during the process of accomplishing something, satisfying some expectation or finishing some tasks in my own pace, manners, speed or space. I am glad and proud to say what I have done is my choices and my decisions without regrets.

I just follow the call of my inner voice and take the responsibility for what I have done while enjoying myself in the process.

Haha, something can wait, but some moments can't. Just like the current moment, I feel like typing this long passage to show my highest gratitude toward you, 子建大哥, that is because  I regard it as "some moments can't wait."

I can't wait to show my thankfulness toward your total understanding and thoughtful encouragement.

Thanks again. Wish you a great day.

Helen

PS.  I enjoy myself  heading for my happiness with my pace and manner.

I am honoured
2009/06/28 11:00

Thank you for such a touching article, Helen. I am deeply moved and honoured, but I don't think I deserve your word of gratitude because I was simply sharing with you what I thought was right. On the other hand, it is you who have stuck to your own plan in spite of what others might have said or how much struggle you might have gone through. Listening to your own inner calling is more important than what superficial vanity may honour you, or make you look good. However, one thing remains true: whatever you do during the process toward achieving your goal, or however you enjoy it, don't ever forget the goal you have set for yourself in the first place lest you go astray for whatever reason (another "painful" lesson I learned that I would like to share with you). Of course, this is to presume the goal you first set is something you definitely want to achieve eventually. After all, living a happy life, regardless of what you do, should be the utmost goal in life!

Thanks for your long passage to echo with my thank-you note.

I will keep your quote in mind, " After all, living a happy life, regardless of what you do, should be the utmost goal in life!"

I will bear your advice as my motto, "Whatever you do during the process toward achieving your goal, or however you enjoy it, don't ever forget the goal you have set for yourself in the first place lest you go astray for whatever reason."

 Thanks again.

Good night.

Helen
