Bye Bye Mediocrity

Hmm almost 2 months since I last blogged.. Time passes too fast!

The next blood donation drive is like in 2 weeks' time, so I thought I better write something before I show you another entry of needles and blood bags.

I've been kept somewhat busy with my ecommerce sites recently, and I think that is not the way to go.

There is only so much time I can have, and if I continue to do what I've been doing (i.e. idling and being unproductive), I will be forever trapped in the vicious cycle of making time for the little things which don't yield much returns.

To give myself a little credit, I have already been outsourcing quite a few things to others, and around 2 weeks ago, I just hired a Virtual Assitant (VA) from the Philippines!

And she has a really noble task --

To replace me!

Okay not entirely replace, because she doesn't have such a big head..
But at least to replace me in the things that I loathe doing, and are not part of the big picture.

It was a step in the right direction, but not a step entrenched deep enough.

So when your mind is stuck and you need fresh ideas, what do you do?

You go for a jog duh!

And jog I did (sorry drew for not jioing you), and my brain cells started running as well. So many thoughts run past my mind when I'm jogging, I really should have like a voice recorder next time so I can record down everything.

P.S. Before I end, here's a penny cookie for your thoughts..
"Time without attention is worthless, so value attention over time"
