An Emotional Dimension

It is the second day of the New Year - the Rabbit; and just to maintain some 'peace of mind' I am working on the 'emotional' dimension. I am driving back to my hometown to touch base with the family in Johore. It will be a 'touch & go' trip...will be back in KL within 24 hours so that I will miss the traffic returning to KL on Sunday...will I?

Peace of Mind - Balancing our Act

Being trained as an accountant, it comes as a natural course for me to be talking about balancing. This is not however anything akin to the debit and credit but more of balancing our lives so that we could possibly achieve a Peace of Mind.
When Vision 2020 was announced 20 years ago, one of the attributes for the successful realization of the Vision was said to be the Malaysian population achieving a sense of balance in four dimensions, namely PHYSICAL, MENTAL, EMOTIONAL and SPIRITUAL.
I firmly believe that is a good measurement criteria for us to consider. How do we then put this to a practical platform? First, let's appreciate how does this work. It is simply saying that UNLESS one is equally balanced in those four dimensions in each day of our life, there is a good chance that one would not have a peace of mind.
Let's put this to a practical test: lets use a measurement scale of 1 to 10. On a scale of 1 to 10, where do you stand on each of those four dimensions, Physical, Mental, Emotional and Spiritual. You need to be sincere and honest about claiming where you stand. Lets do it.
I will sign off here while waiting to see some response and hopeful sincere and honest sharing of where people are on the score before I return to continue on this subject.

A Belief

Believing that we could achieve a WORLD that works for EVERYONE with NO ONE left behind, I feel that sharing my experience through...."As I was passing" may contribute towards achieving it.
From today I will be sharing my experience as it relate to either conceptual thoughts being introduced or issues arising with the sincere hope that it would contribute to better understanding by people irrespective of color or creed, level of education or how old (or young)they are.
I look forward to writing regularly.
