Masterpiece
Sunday, August 08th, 2010 | Author:

With most of the days behind me, I can always ask: what kind of day was it? Was it a masterpiece?

More often than not, I wake up each day overwhelmed with so many things in mind, so many tasks to be done, at home, at work, thinking that I have all the time in the world to do what I want. But sometimes I end up missing out something that maybe if only I did my best, it could have been my life’s best opportunity, a masterpiece.

But now I realize that my life’s masterpiece starts with my willingness to do even the very small things – but to do them today with all my best. I believe that each day completes my entire life. I wonder what would happen if I think that each morning when I wake up, I was “born” and each night when I go to bed, I “die”. And that I would say I only have each day to give my best to create my masterpiece.

There are times that I feel bad of wasting my moments that I allow things to happen not the way it should be, instead of creating a masterpiece. And yes, sometimes I flop. Instead of taking actions, I’m stuck with my thoughts, overwhelmed by all these tasks I need to finish. Just like when I stop writing my blog because I’m not in my best mood, when I stop playing DOTA because I am not feeling at my best. But what if today was the only day I had to carry out the best in me? I have a choice. I have to continue my writing, I have to go on playing at my best just like drawing a masterpiece, even just for today. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes I fail but I always remember to try to do my best.

My motivation flows from what I do today at my best. That I don't just live, i live my dream, I dream myself ready. I don’t just hear things, rather I listen. I always look around and not just simply see things around me. I don’t hope, rather I believe. And I don’t simply think, I must know.

While it may be hard to believe that for the rest of my life each day will be a complete masterpiece, I can say at least today, I can really show up for myself. Today, I’m gonna live each moment as if it represents my entire life. I’m gonna live with my eyes widely open so that I won’t miss any opportunity. And I’m gonna live each day at my best so that at the end of the day, I go to bed thinking, I was at my best, and that I made this day a masterpiece.
