The 90/10 Rules

I am writing this once and once only. I have to get this out of my chest and move on with this non-working day weekend(as of blog time) which I have been craving for the past one month.

I am one person who don't make excuses for my life. Like for example,if I'm late to work, I'm late to work. I will just apologise for being late and move on. I will not say this and that. I am late and whatever the reason for the lateness, I am still late.

But some people, not only make excuses about their own life,but have the audacity to belittled others life. For example, when you are late,don't try to make excuses like you just lost your maid,or you have 10 children and then quickly shift the gear by saying my life is much easier, I have my parents to help, I have this and that! Just cut the crap!

Didn't you forget to mention I live in the other part of the world which requires me to travel 100km on daily basis, I cook for my parents on daily basis, I prepare take aways for my cuties and I don't have a maid.

But, I have always practise 90/10 rules. 90% of things you can't control, and another 10% things which are beyond my control. For the 10%, we just need to manage it. For example, if you have 10 kids, you can't change that fact, for the love of God,you will still have 10 kids. But, how do you manage this, that's the important stuff. You may have wake up early, you have to prepare for stuff the night before, you have to work extra hard, you may even have to employ 2 maids....you do what you need to,just stop making others life is more fortunate that yours!

I choose to live so much distance from work and that won't change(unless if I plan to move). So I have to manage that. Wake up early,getting just 3-4 hours of sleep a nite, juggling between work and personal...that's the 90% part of my life that I can control so I shall control it! And I am seldom late to work.

So what, my parents takes care of my cuties. They have just started to do this 3 years ago when all my cuties are already schooling. My cuties only stay at their house for max 2 3 hours a day and I won't burden my mom to cook for my cuties.I took care of that! I make sure they have what they need and just need my parents to keep an eye on thec cuties. And that's that!

So, before you start judging my life to cover up your incompetencies...just stop, think and be honest with yourself....can you manage and do what I do...

That said, have a good weekend everyone!
