Timing Timing Timing
Someone said "Timing is everything."
Well, I don't know if it's everything but I think that it certainly plays a big part in our lives.
I recently read the famouse book "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki for the second time. I read this book about 9 years ago, but it didn't do much for me back then. I didn't really get the message he was talking about in his book and read this book thinking "well, someone can get benefit from it but I don't think it's me." I was shocked to find out how much I missed with such attitude when I was reading this time!
Obviously, I wasn't ready then.
Come to think of it, my life was in such a mess around that time. My marriage was falling apart. I wasn't happy and thinking how I can stay outside of my home and spend as less time as possible with my Ex-husband. My selfesteem was very low even I was telling myself that I can achieve something great in my life. It wasn't in sync with my true feeling.
9 years later, I am happy with and excited about my life. I pulled out my "Rich Dad Poor Dad" from my book shelf. This time, the book was talking to me so much. I was literary absorbing every word and couldn't get enough of it.
It sure is the exactly the same book, but because I've changed what I get from the book is so different! I thought that this is the proof of "we all see what we want to see and hear what we want to hear." It's facinating...
