Inspired by a book and decided to come up with a list of personal mission statement. Many of which are mentioned in the book and I think they are very much relevant to myself, especially on the area of people management. So much for me to learn and improve on.
Duties of an impatient son, overage student and a blessed fool with so many great friends around him
1. Love your family - Im sure theres pretty much I can improve on in this aspect.
2. Be prepared - Motto I learnt from scouting. A scout is always prepared. Applicable to most aspects of life; be it studies, work or even planning of simple outings or events. Fail to plan, plan to fail. An example of this as I recalled during my OCS days, a warrant officer once took out a 'rubber' in front of the whole cohort and then said 'never leave home without it'. I guess it has the same meaning, be prepared.
3. Be honest - A core value that I very much believed in and will continue to strive to maintain. Honesty is the best policy, though sometimes I get negative responses from someone when I mention that she is fat. Shall not disclose her identity. (Sou Man, thank me)
4. Defend those who are absent - Written off from the book. I think its especially applicable to me especially when Im such a KPO. Always like to listen to friends.
5. Always hear both sides before judging - Made quite a few mistakes before because I violated this point.
6. Be sincere yet decisive
7. Maintain positive attitude
8. Keep a sense of humour - Don't try too hard. Getting lame and out of hand.
9. Be orderly in person and work - Could be improved though Im already quite neat. Hahs, I need to remember point 3.
10. Do not fear mistakes, fear only the absence of corrective response to the mistake
11. Listen twice as much as you speak
12. Execute tasks on hand dutifully (esp in work), no fear nor favouritism
13. Be thankful - Thankful for all the great support from my family, close friends (Ryan, Cand, Janice the ghost and many others from DHS, TJ, Hall 2 and Stansfield), brothers (Thomas and Uncle Bong) and sister (Huisi). Thanks for all the guidance and showing me lots and lots of patience. Though I may not really show that I care, I do. Sometimes just no time to find you all out to catch up. Hahaha, ok recap point 3 again.
14. Time management- Dont ever say no time, its how you manage your time. Recap quote from Uncle Ngor-- Time is our greatest enemy, not money. Ok I just mentioned I got no time in point 13. zz
Thats all for now. I will add more points that I can improve on along this life long learning journey. May I keep all these in mind every moment from today onwards.
