All about circles

quotes to live with

Work for a cause,
Not for applause;
Live life to express,
Not to impress;
Don't strive to make your presence noticed,
Just make your absence felt.

self awareness

extracted from The Star newspaper (23-2-2013):

Self awareness is extremely challenging as it is difficult to see in you what others see so easily.
Yet, self awareness is the starting point of leadership.

There are 4 quadrants of the Johari Window:-
1. open self - what others know about you which you know, too.
2. blind self - what others can see about you, which can't see.
3. hidden self -  what others don't know about you, but you do.
4. unknown self - what others don't know about you and neither do you.

The reality "is that no one can be authentic by trying to be like someone else. There is no doubt that you can learn from the experiences of others, but there is no way you can be successful trying to be like them. People trust you when you are genuine and authentic, not an imitation." - Bill George (Harvard Business School Professor, former Medtronic CEO, best-selling author)

"Knowing your strengths and leveraging them, regardless of mistakes or strengths yields improvement, but zooming in on your strengths is significantly more beneficial" - Rath and Conchie in Strengths Based Leadership.

You can also google "MBTI personality test" and see what is your score.

love the unexpected

"It's so amazing when someone comes to your life and you expect nothing out of it but suddenly  there right in front of you is everything you ever need." - anonymous

don't cry, prince tart!

that day, miss potato wanted to break up with prince tart. She thinks prince tart is such a boring person. But, does miss potato ever considered that she was prince tart's first love? He didn't have any love experience beforehand. She left and only said one word to prince tart, "bye!" What prince tart can do is looking at her shadow getting further without looking back at him. Don't cry, prince tart.......
