Five Steps

From My Big Love's movie, I will have to apply these in my life (esp. on loosing weight and being financially free)

Step 1: Set your Goal
Of course; you cannot reach for something that does not exist. As much as possible, set a more realistic goal. Don't set goals that are not possible. (Like loosing 20 pound in 2 weeks, or being rich in 1 month)

Step 2: Start Today!
It's now or never! Start today! Not tomorrow, not later. Nothing will be done if you keep on saying i will do it later. If you have something to be done there may not be later. So do it today!

Step 3: No Shortcuts
Easy comes, easy goes. its true. If you do not know the value of something, it's so easy to let go. That's why many lotto winners still end up being poor. Because it is not a hard earned money, it easy to splurged on anything.
I have also tried diet pills without exercise. I truly lose some pounds in a month but after taking these pills I gained weight again! Gosh! Maybe because I don't know how to limit myself. Sigh!

Step 4: Get Inspired
Have a picture of a sexy avatar in front of your monitor! hahaha
Here's mine!


Or think of how many people you can help when you became rich!

Step 5: Be Happy!
It's always been my motto. Be Happy! Just be happy in everything that you do and life's trial would be just a piece of cake.


God Bless! :)

Only her eyesight was lost not her

Yvonne had a repeated VEP or visual evoked potential at St. Luke’s Hospital to check if her eyes can respond to visual stimuli such as flashing of lights. And just before Yvonne's 5th birthday (last Jan 16, 2008), it was already confirmed by her eye doctor that she could no longer see. Even eyeglasses won’t be much of a help. Right now she can only visually perceive light and dark.

I was not surprised. I already knew that since last December 2006 after her last operation. It was due to the brain pressure when her shunt was pulled out that her optic nerve was damage.

At first I was really hurt and cried a little. I only have this feeling that she cannot see us anymore but still hoping that eventually her eyesight will be back to normal like her speech. As what the saying says “The truth hurts but it will set you free.”

Right now I have already accepted the fact and enjoying every moment with my little angel Yvonne. Only her eyesight was lost not her. That’s a lot to be thankful for, isn’t it?


Want to know the secret why I have a better outlook in life? It’s because I start my day with a smile. Yvonne wakes up every morning with a big smile, as if very thankful for another day given to her by our Creator. This is because of my angel. :)
