Discovering your heart
i was reading this book which i came across this paragraph which i thought is very meaning and useful....it was
the author answering a question by his junior staff on how to pay attention to his heart, understand and discover
oneself...
His answer to the question is
"Well, you like to run. A very practical place to start would be to go for a run all by yourself every day, with
no company, no headphones, and no distractions. When youa re out there, ask yourself this question: What's most
important to me, and why? When you get home, write down what came to you. Do this repeatly. try not tosuccumb to
early deadline pressure to get your application in, and don't fall too much in love with your first answer. Keep
asking the question. See wat you learn in the process. You might be very surprised by what you find. Things are
never quite as they seem at first, at least not for me."
i how wish..i have the discipline to run everyday all by myself everyday and ponder about this.....
How about you?

I prefer to run in a group. Running alone, i will be cursing under my breath so much I have no energy to think about what is most important to me :P hehe ... kidding lah ...
i oso read somewhere about dedicating some time each day to do this, self-reflection. Similar concept. :)

i also do "no company, no headphones "...but not the last one
control your pace is the key to keep yourself running with normal breathing..is a skill and art to pickup.
