What Step Do You Wish To Take ?


Horray , another Wishcasting Wednesday... This morning, I'm wonder what will Jamie ask us in today's Wishcasting. Yay...I think I'm addicted ...


Okay... today question is " What Step Do You Wish To Take ? ".


What a co-incident that I read these quote .....



If you see your path laid out in front of you -- Step one, Step two, Step three -- you only know one thing... it is not your path. Your path is created in the moment of action. If you can see it laid out in front of you, you can be sure it is someone else's path. That is why you see it so clearly.

Joseph Campbell



AND



Don't wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful.

Mark Victor Hansen



So, on your mark and get started today !

Random Post : Street Artist

I was surprised when I saw this uncle sell his art in street , entrance to the Majlis Jamek LRT Station.


He draw very well especially the Dragon () and Phoenix (鳳凰).

Chinese considered the dragon and phoenix symbolic of blissful relations between husband and wife, another common yin and yang metaphor.


His leg was suffered from the highly infected virus Polio when he was young.


He was shy when I taken his pictures.



I bought back one of his drawing, the 龍鳳

Hope my little money will help him.

The Magic Trees

In response to the Quote Graffiti prompt 1 ~

"A painter told me that nobody could draw a tree without in some way becoming a tree."


Ralph Waldo Emerson, "History," Essays


I used sequins and glitter to make the magic tree !
I spread a layer of modelling/polystyrene Glue, arrange the sequins then the glitter.


About Quote Graffiti :
Every other Wednesday, a quote will be posted.
Use the quote as inspiration to create a work around or incorporate the quote itself into your work.





Edited 30/11/09, found Create Tuesday in world of blogging, the theme for this week is "TREE" sounds .....So the theme is to draw, paint, or create a tree or trees with your own ideas. The image of the same tree above does not do justice to the idea but I think you get the point.

Mind Business Plan


Business plan that i committed in one of the Wishcasting Wednesday.

I love Tony Buzan's Mind Mapping concept.
I don't like the conventional format of Business Plan, all about the BORING words.
Instead, I try to structure my business plan based on Buzan's way, feel that it's more structure, easily generate, visualize, and classify.

(* Not managed to capture the whole piece as I drew them in A3 size paper)

If money weren’t an issue what would you do with your time?


" If money weren’t an issue what would you do with your time? (career or otherwise.)"
In response to the Creative Therapy, catalyst number eighty-seven (87), my answer would be ....



If I am giving the opportunity to do so,

First ...I'll set a date when I shall free myself as the wage slave.


Second .... I need to write down why I make such decision. Something to remind me when I feel upset / regret.


What things I always wish to do when I granted the opportunity.


Hmm....if money weren't the issue


How to keep myself energetic ... thru exercise, painting , arting, blogging
