Hectic weekend

The last weekend has been a most hectic one!

I attended a seminar, had my brain washed and the cobwebs sluiced out! It was quite an eye-opener, this re-conditioning of the mind. Finding out my weaknesses was an important discovery and now I have to work on self-development.

I would like to share that it is very important to have a positive mindset as negativity is a major obstacle to one's success.

At the end of each day it is good to note down what one has achieved that day. This should be in the form of journalling so that we can see our progress. Success is after all a habit of doing the right things. Success breeds success. So the success journal will encourage one to keep on track.

The week ended with a quick peek into Orchard Road. The Christmas
lights are in place and they are very pretty. I liked the lilac Christmas tree in front of the ION building. It's not a real tree as in the fir trees that are the universal symbols of Christmas but lovely decorations and lights built into the shape of fir tree.

This tree is very unusual in that people could go inside it. We went in and saw many people with their cameras angling upwards to catch the lights within the tree.
Indeed Orchard Road looked like a lady all dressed to the nines, with beautiful baubles and accessories.



The difference between Singapore and Malaysia during this festive season is that the Malaysian shopping malls are decorated to the hilt by talented and creative designers whereas in Singapore, it is the street lights that are beautifully creative, not unlike those in Oxford Street and Regent Street in London.
