Don't Be Hesitate, Just Do It

I read an interesting 'quote', written by Zamri Mohamad in his Facebook, "Do not care, just do it. Getting assurance by taking action is much better rather than guess-if."

Why and how to overcome the delay behaviour? Could it be no assurance that anticipated or is there any doubt that nested in one's soul? Perhaps the points below may help:

  1. Poor management in many aspects: personal, time, resource, communications, relationship and others. Sometimes there are spaces and chances, but due to poor handling of these opportunities will not be done. So, get to know where the weakness is and try to overcome it.
  2. Do not want to try if things are not perfect. Try to be as perfect as one could is good but do not proceed just because of imperfect task is useless. The fact is people are not perfect and only God alone is perfect. All human creation has its own weakness as human beings are not perfect. This fact must be accepted rasionally. What is important is that a person keeps on trying and doing something.
  3. Some people are shrouded in fear and worry. They are too concerned of what other people say, fear of being rejected, fear of failing, fear of taking more responsibility if successful and so forth. People who are diligent and hard work do not play with these feelings yet they are rather preoccupied with the efforts of even going to think what else can be done without treating anxiety and fear. Fact shows that 90% of what is feared will happen does not even happen.
  4. Laziness and the delay has toed the self. Try doing the opposite of this attitude should continue efforts for 40 consecutive days for this new attitude will fight the old behavior.
I also advise myself to "Just Do It" on the dot because the time keeps on running, while all the problems and uncertainties will be answered after I saw the results I did. In fact, the imperfect results can be fixed from time to time. Moreover, as long as the name of human, perfection is not absolute as the absolute perfection that only belong to God. So if that is the case, why do wait for longer time? Just do it.

A woman in me ... During mother’s day.


My job is never done and it never will be. But I won’t trade it for anything in the world. It is a blessing and I am fortunate to have 6 children – 1 girl and 5 boys – plus 1 breast-fed child who is a boy. All of them are 7 children totally. They have been grown up in my very eyes except my breast-fed child who used to live with his parents until his age of 17. After both of his parents passed away, then I take over the parental role on him. This may be the secret why I adopted him by breast feeding him when he was a new born baby. My first child is now preparing for his tertiary education. I feel so proud of him for his long journey to be success while the others are still surviving in the secondary and primary school. Sure, there were times when it was hard. Plus I am a working mom – I have a career and I have to take care of my family too. So, it isn’t easy juggling my time between my children and work. Luckily for me, I had been helped by my mother and understanding husband in raising my children.

There were many times when I felt I wasn’t good enough as a mother. I didn’t have a lot of time to spend with my children due to my other work commitments. But I always try my best. I still run errands for them and do the grocery for our everyday meals. It doesn’t matter if I’m home late and tired from work, I still find some time to sit down with my children, have our meals together and catch up with them on what’s happening. Family time is important.

Although I have helped bringing up my children, I am still responsible for their well being. I cannot fall sick for my children’s sake. I do not want to be a burden to them. So I have to take care of my own health. Good hope helps me do that. I have been drinking good hopes for over 18 years now. It keeps me refreshed and provides me with the strength to cope with two very demanding and full time jobs – that of being a mother and my own career.

Of course, compare to my other job, I don’t get much in terms of monetary payment as a mother. Then again, it’s not something that can be compared. How can you measure the value of love you get in return? Love is priceless. The emotional reward I get in return is worth more than any financial gain at work. But I still need to work. I need to provide for my children – to make sure they have what they need and want. When I see how successful they are and what they’re making of their lives, it makes me proud to know that somehow I had a hand in all that. I don’t have any special expectations of my children. I only ask that they be caring people and that they find the time to keep in touch with each other and the family no matter how busy their lives are. As long as they are happy, healthy and able to take care of themselves – that’s the best gift any mother could ask for.
