After surviving the tsunami of events and work, I feel like I grew a lot.
At one point, I was mentally exhausted and broken. There is so much to do but so little time to complete.
And to add to it, there is so many people chasing after you for every minute details and ppl who have a very bad habit of not taking ownership of their work.
I worked day and night, not taking any leave nor medical leave; coming back on some. I even worked during my off-day and there wasn't much personal time where I can contemplate and think about life or feel life.
Surviving all that is not enough, I was mentally scarred and physically drained. I managed to get a couple of days off schedule ahead where I came across a series of video from goal cast.
One video is by a marshal who quote
"Life is like a ocean, full of sharks. To deal with shark you got to stand your ground, do not show that you are afraid and swim away. If the shark still approach you, you got to muster all courage to punch the shark in the snouts".
That reminds me of what Henn Tan, the creator of the USB thumb drive had said in Junior world entrepreneurship forum 2012.
At that time, he sharing of his experience after inventing the thumb drive.
Eating glass, deal with problems you don't plan to work on
Overwhelm
Stretch to your limit
