Making Decision

It’s funny sometime I wonder how I got myself to where I am now. Wonder maybe I could have made a better decision in the past. Often I face many cross road in life and some wise friend of mine would approach me and tell me that I’ve made a mistake. I know I can’t believe 100% what I heard. It’s still my decision. They can only give me their point of view from their perspective. Probably what I want may not be good for me. Probably what I do not want may be good for me. I don’t know.

The decisions that we make may cause rejections, failures, embarrassments, or even losing our own dignity. Ever decisions that we make in life will have either good or bad consequences.

For example, William Hung may think he made a brave move by entering “American Idol� and think that he may be short listed. I would say making the first move takes confident and self-assurance, believing in himself the he would success. I’m sure everyone would think like him before entering “American Idol�. So often we think we can, but from many others point of view, we are just not good enough or not even near at all. But that did not stop William for being worldwide famous, he’s now known for making the fool out of themselves. I’m sure no one wants to be known for being foolish. I know I don’t. What we’re not aware is that, this guy is making lots of money out of it – making money by being laugh at.

Once, I was like this man. I thought I was good, qualify and all. But eventually, I found out that I’m not even near there. My friend was right about asking me to think twice but I didn’t listen. I wasted my time and money by putting effort in it. I’m sure there are so many others out there who are better than me – I would say, 100% much better than me. Guess I will have to face rejection and disappointment. *sigh* But everything that I’ve learned are not wasted, at least I learned something.
