Afew years ago when I was starting out in the advertising industry, Bozell (my ex-agency) sent me to Shine training. It really helped me with dealing on pressure at work and I also met some really good people there. At the end of training day, we were asked what lesson we had learn from the whole course and this is basically my reply...
"Work is a big part of who I am. But it is not the ONLY part of me that makes me who I am."
I tend to take my work too seriously sometimes. And from time to time i need to remind myself to gear down abit before i get a heart attack. Sometimes I think we are all struggling to get that perfect balance. Work & Life.

I've been reading Reader's digest for awhile now. I even got a 1979 issue where they actually have a Bahasa Malaysia section (amazing!). So anyways I just realize that in their 'Quotable Quotes' section, there are more Hollywood celebrity quotes than before. Sometimes ALL the quotes are celebrity quotes. I don't have anything against Hollywood celebrity but some of these quotes are not what it used to be. Call me old fashion but judge for yourselves.
