From the time I started working years ago, I know I always wanted to make it big. To never stop climbing the ladder. In a way, I was never satisfied with what I was in and that I should always be moving on to greater heights as I grow older. I personally feel that a career path is like playing a video game. You play the game, your main goal is to complete each level and eventually end up victorious. The last level, always come to a point where you have to fight the biggest villian before you are announced a winner. The biggest villian is like our boss. So far, haha... trust me, I haven' heard anyone said anything fantastic about their bosses. SO lets just play with my little imaginative assumption. It's a matter of wits, perseverance and experience. If you manage to put these 3 together and use them wisely, you complete the game and you take over. You become the boss, who creates your game for others to play.
Of course I'm not saying i want to take over my boss one day. Duh! What I'm saying is that, thats how the cycle work. As you move along, you meet barriers in every level, sometimes its the little soldiers (aka小人)who tries to stop you, cutting your chances on moving forward. Sometimes its the long, tedious work you have to go through. Some people are able to play the same game for years and eventually getting what he wants, but some may become bored and tired of the game that they decide to move on to the next one with what they have learnt from the current one. Keeping their fingers crossed that they play the new game better and moving up the ladder quickly. With the experience and qualifications we have, we sometimes have the secret code, this enables us to jump straight into the higher levels instead of starting from the bottom. There are also others who become numb with the game, either they aren't smart enough to move on to the next level, or they are too lazy to. These are the people who lands in the comfort zone and they just stay at the same level for the longest time. Its like us playing the video game when we simply are unable to move up that we jus completely quit playing or just enjoy the processs of winning at the lower levels.
Wow. Does the above even make sense? Ahaha... Well, its Jolene's little theory :)
It's a new beginning for me tomorrow. I'm a little nervous but really looking forward to it. I am lucky, because this is the place I always wanted to be since the tiny me had my tiny eyes stuck to that box. To be honest,I almost wanted to give it up but wow, the fact is I am here. I will consider myself at Level 3. Hey! Thats not good enough for my age. Haha... I hope I can really shine in this new environment and slowly move on to the tasks awaiting me in the remaning levels.
I think the Americans are right about this one. "Follow your dreams." I did and it worked.
Oh! Btw, meet "mojo", the bonus I got for completing level 2. Awww.... He's blushing.
