Better days :)

I've been in a much cheerful mood for some time. I'm not so critical about our department any more and I can see both sides of this story. Looking at the man I admire so much and getting to know what's his point of view helped me to get a broader perspective on the issue. Generally he constantly influences my way of thinking. He's much older and wiser than I am so the things he says always make me look at myself critically. It's not that I automatically adopt views from him, but I test my views against his ideas and accept the best of them. I've learnt not to expect too much from life and not to plan too much, because then you're not open to the posibbilities that life brings you. I define goals that are possible to achieve in the near future and I keep my options open. I try to focus on who I want to be, not where I want to be or with whom I want to be - these are the things you can always change. Now I'm leraning to be assertive and to control my own destiny. Wish me good luck ;)
