competitions

5:01 AM

woo, competitions around the corner. so i will share some of my experiences to help those who are competing to boost up their confidence, so as to aid them to play better during the game.

confidence.

confidence is something that will be able to make someone perform better in their games. this technique that i'm teaching, not only applicable to games that you compete, it is also applicable to your every day life. First i will define confidence.

Confidence is something that a belief, a belief in yourself of being capable of doing certain task. Simple. When one is confident, everything will go smoothly and you will not be easily affected by people.

The technique that i'm going to teach, is to help trigger your confidence when you need it. It also apply during your low morale periods.

First step: Think of a past incident that will make you feel confident. Like for example, you won first prize in a story telling competition in primary school, you win medal for the school, and as simple as scoring 10 free throws in a game (in basketball context). This incident that you think of, must make you feel proud of yourself.

Second step: Indicate a trigger, how do you indicate a trigger? For example, clenching of fist, punch your fist in the air, pull your ears, or like the primary school kid, rub your nose. This trigger is very important, without this trigger, this whole thing will fail.

Third step: The conditioning process. This is the key of success. All you have to do is now repeat the first step, then the second. Repeat ths process every 3 minutes, like for example, you spend 1 minute on the first step to think of the incident. While thinking, apply the trigger, like when i think of the proud incident, i clenched my fist. Do this step like 3 - 4 times a day. And try to repeat it everyday.

Now this is the fun part, whenever you feel down, low morale or low confident, take a deep breathe, and clench your fist (the trigger). And automatically, the proud incident and confidence will appear in your mind. And you will feel confident.

People will not trust me and think this is absurd. I came up with this technique based on the human physiology. It is called the conditioned reflex, just like you touched a hot object, your hand will automatically be moved away from it. No harm just give it a try. =)

Do not underestimate the power of your mind, if you haven't realised, it is your will that keep you moving and going. It is the most powerful tool in your body.

p/s: smile smile smile. =) stay happy. hope you really smile from the bottom of your heart. =). inu.

Promises

7:20 PM

hi, welcome to the latest show, "bearr bear tells it all". ^^. what is this show about? this show is a show that says all definition of certain words and terms, analyse and understand what does it mean. today's show i'll start with a very simple word, Promise.

Promise.

Promise is a very powerful word, it can either make someone extremely happy or someone extremely sad. So as to say, it brings you to heaven as well as the hell. =/. So, what's so special about this word? First of all, i'll give you the definition, it is the commitment, assurance, through verbal means. For example, "i promise to bring you to the zoo", "i promise to buy you flowers" and "i promise to go out with you". All these are very simple examples.

Please note, promise are like assurance, commitment, but however, they are slightly different. So don't mixed up promise as assurance, because, assurance can be on black and white while promise can't.

Now, i'll tell you the heaven that promise will give to everyone. When a promise is being made to you, you will feel happy, joyful and some blissful moment that you can possibly imagine.
For examples,

"I promise to take care of you" (Boyfriend to girlfriend)
"I promise to get you your favorite toy, if you top your class." (Parents to children)
"I promise that i will never make you sad" (Boyfriend to girlfriend)
"I promise that we will do this together." (Among friends)
"I promise that you'll never walk alone anymore." (Among friends/boyfriend to girlfriend)

Usually, when someone made these kind of promise, the one that is being promised will be extremely happy, motivated and the bliss comes from those boyfriend whose promises are made to the girl.

After having shiny days there bound to be rain, and the rain falls, it is equivalent to the arrival of hell. Why would a simple word brings hell to a person? How? Not the most sophisticated, it is actually very simple. Just BREAK the promise. Not that i'm teaching you how to make people sad and feel miserable. But that is the very truth. Among friends, not close type, promise broken, the person will feel sad. Close friends, maybe got the chance to tolerate, maybe worse, that person will be extremely sad. Especially close friends. Now, the most ultimatum factor that will bring you to hell, that is affections. If one had affections with one another and that kuku fellow breaks his/her promise. Ding Ding Ding! Bingo! You've won the grand prize.

Definitely not the nicest thing to do, i can tell you. That's all i've got to say. Some words from my brains to all people. Don't ever give promises if you bound to break it. Live your words for the promises you've made. Otherwise, don't bother trying to give. Forget to mention, it is a double edge sword, once you burst the bubble, the damage done, not just on the person that you've break your promise, it also will affect you. Especially, when that person is someone you treasure a lot, simple.

So long everyone.

p/s: sometimes i don't what i want either. but the very fact is, i want you by my side. it's no longer do or die, it has become live or live without with. smile. =)

total siansation.

1:20 PM

one more day to a week of my injuries. pain suffered for endless nights. tried to endure despite ppl urge me to see the doctor. finally, today i pain until so fed up, reported sick and see the doctor. how agonising when the pain, from the ankle moves to the knee, so frustrating and yet i can do nothing about it.

end with no choice. went to see doctor and gotten a two days mc. the china nurse freaking funny, she helped me wrap my ankle. after x-ray, i went back to the doctor's room, seeing the doctor not around and i'm walking aimlessly, she approached me.

china nurse: "you finished your x-ray?"
me: "yeap, where is the doctor?"
china nurse (points at the bed): "医生出去了, 你等一会儿. 麻烦先生你到那里坐, 我帮你包一下脚."
me: "oh okay. thanks." (sits on the bed and removed my sandals)

she went away and came back with like five rolls of bandage, and i'm serious, 5 rolls!!!! oh man, what is she wrapping. she brought along 1 roll of with medication which suppose to be anti-inflammatory, which means will ease the swell. she went ahead removing the packing, and she starts to wrap my knee. since no doctor is there, i thought it was doctor's instruction to wrap my knee and my ankle. as she goes on, i find it weird, then i asked,

me: "er, 为什么你包我的膝盖? 我是脚腕受伤leh."
china nurse: "脚腕啊? 不是膝盖?"
me: "不是, 是脚腕."
china nurse: "对不起, 对不起. 不好意识."

lame right. where got nurse wrap never ask where is the injured part one. funny. her name, zhang xin. run when you see her.

this is what my ankle looks like now,

pig leg.

why am i so worry about the injury now? reason is simple. my knee are hurting. ligaments injuries i fear. i fear i couldn't go back to the court. i fear that my future partner will need to take care of a handicapped for life. i fear everything that will be worse.

let me show you all the ligaments found in the knee.

a lot of ligaments right?

let me brief you, once you rupture your ligaments, which means snap. there is no cure unless you go reconstruction, and after reconstruction, you will not recover 100% partially torn ligament will bound you not to do vigorous sports or anything that will strain the particular ligament. so this is how scary ligament injuries can be. no choice. i love basketball.

missed wearing this jersey.

alright so much infos on this. got something for you, who read my blog, i know cannot eat. next time send you a box. =)

looks nice? =X

p/s: i missed seeing this smile.

. stay happy. smile more. if really one day, tears roll, tell me. i will definitely wipe it off your face! =D. haha
