"Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor."

Yes, the Marvel craze is back. Every now and then, we look forward to great blockbusters like this, to make our visits to the movie theatre more memorable!

while the Hubby marvels at the stunts and storyline of this wonderful movie, the bimbo in me can't help but to start imagining how nice it would be if i were to own the Mjölnir!!!!

which leads me to THE question...
“If you had Thor’s Mjölner for a day, what would you do with it?”

at this present moment in time (being very frustrated with entertaining difficult coworkers/bosses/colleagues, etc --> cannot be too obvious, i never know who reads my blog and relates it to the affected party, u know....)

oh yes. I would use the Mjölnir to knock some sense into she-who-shall-not-be-named. c'mon, let's juz make our working environment a little bit more friendlier instead of breathing down others' neck. I mean, wat good does it to you that you put down others and make yourself look superior and appear cleverer at the expense of others right?!?!?!!
side track: yes, it's a she. to the bao-toe-kia -who-reads-my-blog, dun bother guessing. 99% of my colleagues are SHES.

ok, i appear to be talking in parables now. but you know, the gist of it is, in every office, there is a joker whom you can't wait to see them die by their own stupidity. period.

ADD ON:
over the weekend, i'm pretty worried that your imaginations run wild, so let me give u an example of classic stupidity:
pretending to know how to operate the functions in microsoft excel and explaining that you can't find the commands, when in actual fact, you dunno!

for now, let me juz go back and play with my ah girl's toy hammer.... this. :(

Good is the enemy of Great

if there's something i've caught over the weekend, it has to be CHANGE.
in Jim Collins' book entitled , he talks about why some companies (and i would say, individuals too) make the leap... and others don't.

in his opinion, the 7 characteristics of companies that went from Good to Great has to be:

• Level 5 Leadership: Leaders who are humble, but driven to do what's best for the company.
• First Who, Then What: Get the right people on the bus, then figure out where to go. Finding the right people and trying them out in different positions.
• Confront the Brutal Facts: The Stockdale paradox - Confront the brutal truth of the situation, yet at the same time, never give up hope.
• Hedgehog Concept: Three overlapping circles: What makes you money? What could you be best in the world at? and What lights your fire?
• Culture of Discipline: Rinsing the cottage cheese.
• Technology Accelerators: Using technology to accelerate growth, within the three circles of the hedgehog concept.
• The Flywheel: The additive effect of many small initiatives; they act on each other like compound interest.

are you moving from good to great? Needa Change.

Time

Overheard a conversation in a crowded train... "Quality time is spent outside, not at home."

Not being in context doesn't issue me the right to decide whether wat he said was right or wrong.

Retrospectively, I do spend little time at home. Ok I meant LITTLE.

On the average I reach home around 10pm almost every day? If I leave for work at 830 and I spend 8 hours sleeping... I've effectively 2 active hours at home. Gosh.

Needa change.
