It's good to be reminded

Monday, Jan 30, 2012

Today just put an end to a series of 4-week long that I didnt get to leave the office until midnight at the earliest, and getting home at 2-3am was not that unusual... I didnt even know how long I could sustain for that many hours, but at least the amazing team and the very interesting nature of the project gave me the stamina I needed to have... But i do feel exhausted after all.

Today, I also got this short speech forwarded by my friend, and it was like a wake-up call that I would need once in a while.

Quoted
The Shortest Speech by Bryan Dyson - Former CEO of Coca Cola...

Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. They are Work, Family, Health, Friends and Spirit and you are keeping all of these in the air.

You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four Balls - Family, Healthy, Friends and Spirit - are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for it."

Work efficiently dueing office hours and leave on time. Give the required time to your family, friends and have proper rest

Value has a value only if its value is valued.
