Assert Reasonably


Pissed off to be the door mat
Often respect others’ boundaries
Upset towards myself
Letting others overstep into my boundaries

Speak up
Assert myself
Waking up the selfish
Letting them to be more considerate


Inspiration On: Wednesday, 3 February 2016

A staff from a learning hub calls to inform me that I make a mistake to claim from the government subsidy. I tick on the wrong tick box that state ‘to company’. I should tick the ‘individual’ section. This is so embarrassing so I quickly cancel the previous claim and submit a new claim for individual. I feel so grateful.

Barely surviving the day with my son again.

The imagination play in my head about the kindness of a baby story for my son to listen. He enjoys listening to it.

My parents return to home from overseas trip.

Glad to wake up at 7am and rush my son to take school bus I learn to speak up to assert the pickup point. Inside I feel better after I assert myself on the bus pickup point and to choose on the food that has lesser burnt parts for dinner. Does the chef ever consider on the consumer’s health issue? The burnt parts can cause large intestine cancer. My uncle often ate such burnt parts and end with large intestine cancer. So the best resolution is to avoid such food. Alternatively, slice away the burnt parts.

Wish you all have good days and thank you.
