Sarina’s Important Life Lesson 6

Never stop learning.

The discipline I imposed on myself was to work harder on myself than on my job.

I was guided by the message of yet another motivational speaker: the pain of discipline weighs ounces, the pain of regret weighs tons.

I drew from this the determination to:
- Educate myself,
- Discipline myself with my savings,
- Find mentors who could inspire me (including my boyfriends),
- Visit stimulating places,
- Read good books,
- Listen to uplifting music, and
- Go to as many motivational seminars as I could to find about ‘how to develop your self esteem and self image’.

Remember I never knew the meaning of self esteem and self image at school.

Such a concept was beyond my comprehension.
