1 thing I hate about this guy is his arrogance. Sheesh, I'm so unfortunate to have known this guy. He feels like he's very smart and others are not. Likes to make fun of me. Arg!!!@$$#ol* Next time you'll do that, tatarayan na kita. and get far away from you as much as possible. Mahawa pa ako sa kayabangan mo. I hope he'll never be my classmate again!

Problems. Life wouldn't be the same without it. Without it, life will be a bore, no challenge at all. Would you still have life when you don't face any problems. Look at the dead, they have no problems. Problems are there to help us grow. They make us think of solutions. They help us to be creative. In business, problems are important. If the CEO doesn't have any problems in his company, would there be business? Will the company earn?No, because there's no business in the first place. No resposiblity at all. The CEO did nothing to make his company grow.
Problems can make or break you. If you don't want to find ways to solve it, or you think there's no solution for it, then sorry, you really won't be able to solve it. It's because you already gave up from the very start. A person cannot be labeled as strong if they're not encountered many problems. If a house did not encountered any strong winds, typhoons, or any calamities, would it be labeled as strong? How will you know how strong it is if it is not tested? Read the biographies of influential people, their life did not always sailed smoothly. Everyone started from hardship. People who are afraid to face problems are weak. They will never grow up.
Be challenged and face your problems.

I remembered a beautiful line from Memoirs of Geisha. Not the exact wordings but it goes like this:

There was a general who never lost in a game. He was reputed to be the man who never lost. When asked what is his secret, he replied: "I never defeated the man, but I defeated his confidence."

That is something.

I watched "A Beautiful Mind" yesterday. It is a great story. A really really smart but schizophrenic(sp?) guy who contributed a lot to our society. I was teary-eyed at the end of the movie. Just imagine the harships he has gone through. The society condemned him. The students mocked him. He only had his wife with him all the time. But at the end, he is respected, honored and recognized by the people for his work.
