Yet, the programming is strong. I find myself struggling over a task and it ends up dragging itself out. Have you noticed that the things that you dislike doing are the ones that seem to take forever to get done? As for the opposite viewpoint, well as the saying goes, “Time flies when you’re having fun!”

Learning to go against that old programming and trusting the “fun index” is an ongoing project. Every small step is, at the same time, a big leap. Each step will move you away from dissatisfaction with your life and closer to self-love, self-acceptance, self-esteem and joy in your everyday existence.

Anytime you ignore that inner prompting, you accumulate self-loathing and disappointment in your being. Your inner child once again feels letdown and unimportant. Each letdown reinforce the inner child’s belief that everybody else’s wishes are more important than its own. Once again its desires are relegated to the lowest priority on the list.

Yet, it’s your life! Why let someone else dictate how you “should” live it? Ask yourself what steps you want to take! Listen to the voice within which will tell you what would really make you feel fulfilled and satisfied. You are the boss of your life! After all, it’s yours, isn’t it?

我希望改变自己的人生计划。我知道,做自己感兴趣的事情,我会做得更好;相反,做自己憎恶的事,我会做得一塌糊涂。在压力下工作通常会事倍功半。

我们可以改变生活中衡量某事是否该做的标准。我们需要扪心自问的,不应是“它是否会赚大钱或能否让事业更上一层楼”,而是“我对这些感兴趣吗?这事有意思吗?我要大干一番吗?”
