Simple Stuffs Again

I've been quite unorganized lately. Never to say I'm busy as everyone is. If you think you;re busy now, then soon you still wouldn't be free. As days gone by, your responsibilities are always added to you. As everyday, you improve yourself, hence more and more tasks are burdened unto you as you're eligible for them. So whenever I'm a bit lost with time, I'd rather say I'm undergoing a restructure of my time. So put that aside. Just an idea. 

(Just to share with some 'friends', wonder if you're a student now, and you have a lot of things to do, datelines waiting, assignments to be finished etc etc, while at the same time you have to meet people, you have to do some 'work', etc etc, do you think when you've finished university that you'll be free and have more time, i.e not busy? Think again.)

So, what's the simple stuffs again? Erm...quite lost. -wink-wink-

Yup, got it. Management and the kin. Have been thinking lately about writing something regarding "managing resources: our everyday life". Sounds interesting but rather theoretical. 
Sometimes it's best to share about your daily experiences, but to a certain extent. I've had some discussions with some friends, some 5-minutes-talking, but ridiculously immaculate ideas went out. And I kept to myself until I had this clueless cold night that I decided to write something out of nothing. Simply wonderful.

Surely most people think they are capable of managing people. Some might prefer to work in the management team though they are doing some funny engineering courses like mechanical, chemical, environmental, civil(burrppp...) and the sorts. Most would just say out of no where that they love to work in the management team, or probably HRM. Seriously, do you really have what it takes to be part of the management team? Or you're just saying it because you think you can manage well when you're just really looking from the outside? Say Petronas, or Proton, or Perodua, or Modenas, or maybe Khazanah(heard of it before?). You sure have had a lot of ideas before of how you think you can make it perform better. You think so?

Really this is not something simple. I've deviated actually as I never really had anything simple to talk about here. Just giving a hint of probably a new section in here that I'd like to bring forth. Might be helpful to some though not all.

Some people asked me, "What are you going to do when you've finished your studies?". I'd say, "Surely not an engineer. Probably a carpenter, or maybe an interior designer. Or a plumber. But not an engineer.". And they'd go blank and say, "Four years of studies, and that's what you gonna be?" I'd say, "Life is to be understood aside of just making thru the day(this I doubt would be for real). I desire time, not money. I desire chances, not career set-points to go after. I found that I'm not good at analyzing or maths or critical thinking or work pressure or open ended solutions, but pretty well in making things work and go fine. So I'd rather delve into it. Besides, wealth is cheap. Well, at least in my opinion.". And some might just turn silent while I'll be rest assured with myself. Ahah...there you go self-esteem !
