Its always tough to strike a balance.
Yet, some people can do it so perfectly. I guess its about self-control.
Is studying hard the road to success? I guess not. But its what I need to do now. And also, hopefully, what I want to do.
Someone once told me that everyone is selfish. Selfish for their own personal needs. Yet, why is it that whenever someone refuses to share notes with another person, we tend to condemn that person as 'selfish'?
I'm not referring to myself, because I'm always the lucky one who gets fed with notes.
Everyone is guilty of the term, 'the pot calling the kettle black'. Like if someone criticises you and you go around criticising that person back, you're no different from the person criticising you. Get what I mean?
So from a revengeful point of view, you might think, 'I can't possibly sit down and let that person spread negativity about me right?' and you then proceed on to plot your revenge.
Or you could be an angel and think that its alright, because the person does not see the entire picture. But you still love him/her.
You might not know this, but I am EXTREMELY afraid of hurting a person. Thats why I seldom reject an invitation. sigh. I guess I need to brush up my communication skills and turn down a person with the least possible damage.
