Are you sleep walking ?

Do you know your purpose in life ? are you living the life that you dreamed to be ? are you taking actions to pursue your dream ? or are you just keeping them at bay and behind your mind, and continue to sleep walking your life away ?

It is easier to ignore your dream, it's simpler to look another way when you know in your gut that things are not working and it's 'peaceful' to avoid confrontation. you think to yourself : " gosh, i don't want to deal with this anymore because i've enough 's**t' all days from work, i just want to go to sleep", instead of : "gosh, this is an opportunity to improve, what was not working n how do i make it right". Because confronting our dreams, making decision to face the problem, taking actions to solve the problems and working toward the life we want to be is not easy. It involves a lot of changes, actions, perhaps even ego !

who are the Sleepwalkers -- These are people who live through their lives in an unconsciousness state. It is not just about being physically awake – Many people around us are awake, yet living unconsciously. They are not fully aware of who they are, the larger context of life they are a part of and their real purpose in life.

Sleepwalkers look like any one of us, but are really just physical shells living through their lives as drones. Have you ever seen people who have no clarity on their life? These people are not able to articulate what their life is about or what they want to do. Every day, they are just running around doing various activities such as working, playing, partying, sleeping, but none of it has any relation to life in the bigger picture. To them, that is what they have come to know as life.

These people are the sleepwalkers.

My life as a sleepwalker (i also like to called it my zombie stage or waking dead moments)
Up till 3 years ago, i spent my life as a sleepwalker. I spent the whole 16 hours of my day in a corporate rat race. I do not know where i'm going, i just go one living day by day. The only happiness i have is Friday and weekend because then i get to spend away all the money i earned and turned them into my pointless material pocession. If i'm not out and about making myself pretentiously good, i will spend my time marking the importance from entertainment news, criticise everything else and blaming everybody else.

It was the birth of my daugther that woke me up from sleep walking. It was the turning point of my life where i seriously examine my purpose in life. I realised success is not marked through physical pocession, it is more than that. And i want to instill the same value to my daughter and that is when i realised if i do not know how to achieve what i want in life, how can i pass down the knowlege to her. That's when i decided that i will sleep walking no more and wake up to face the music.

once i've decided to stop sleep walking, finding the passion in life, discover the true potential, expand my strength and improve my capabilities, they rest just fit into it's own places. i've found that it has enhanced all aspect of my life in a whole new level. The first key step here is to make the decision to stop sleep walking, and usually, the first step is always the hardest.

Here's a recent best-seller book regarding the achieving success. When you're ready to start living and stop sleep walking, pick up this book :) if you want a reading buddy, call/email me and i'll more than happy to start the success journey with you !!
