17.2.12 - I have always been skeptical about my capability and yet I have high expectation of what I am capable of. Thus, I subject myself to unnecessary pressures and cause anxiety to myself. I now analyze and try to understand my problem after listening to Chan Fong reasoning on 988 that night. He has a point that is spot on about my problem. In one of his stories, I find my answer.
I always expect myself to keep up with social responsibility and that I have to be outgoing, sociable and likable. But all seem to backfire and I always end up unhappy and stressful. If I follow my heart, be myself, forget about those expectation and responsibilities, I feel bad. Either way, I dont feel good.
So that night when Chan Fong said, if we decide to do certain thing, we do it and we should not feel bad or if we feel bad, then we should not do it. It is our choice. We cannot have it both ways. That makes sense.
I have to follow my heart and be true. I should be the person GOD made me to be and not let anyone pressure me into being something that I am not, including myself.
