Lesson!

Oh well... I am attending Eagle Leadership Conference held at Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. Today is the second day and I must admit that I benefited from it a lot. Well, I have been reminded of how to be a listener to avoid conflict and also to be a good leader/king.

But when I came home, I realised, I am not having problem with listening, I am having problem finding listener arounds me...............I did wanted to share the happiness I experienced today, but.... well, no listener... after 1 minute of talking, I HAVE TO shut up........... Oh well, may be it is time to go back to the 'old me' ... to 'prayed' (those of you who attended the conference, will know what it means) [*I am doing the fingers*]. Hmm...........OK. OK. I will S.U.M.O.

Unexpected!

I was being assigned by another lawyer to handle her mother's matter to go against another lawyer. Ya... i know this is complicated. It gets more complicated when later, the one who is being sued (defendant), filed an application to bring in a third party who is the father of the lawyer to assigned me. I was seriously angry and furious when I was served a notice to add the third party into the suit and I have always wanted to strike the application out.

I have been having 'worries' in me since last week (that's the main cause why I couldn't sleep well for the past one week until today) as the hearing for my application to strike out the Defendant's application is fixed for hearing today. I have filed and served my written submission but yet, I am having this feeling that this morning's hearing won't be as easy as getting a ruling date. Well, both the Defendant's lawyer and myself were present this morning and we both agreed that we should just get a ruling date. Well, unexpectedly, the Judge (my favourite judge so far) has asked us if we are ready for hearing today. Well, I am and that's the reason why I was reading and preparing for today's hearing last night. Well, ...

Court gave us 30 minutes to prepare and after the 30 minutes, my case was called and there we go, giving our oral submission. I have no idea how good or how bad it was,... things got through and the judge seems agreed with my point and has questioned the defendant badly and at the end, he granted to me my application to strike out the third party notice and statement of claim.

Seriously, this is unexpectedly. But after all the worries I got, well, at least it's worth it by succeeded in my application filed.

Timing!

I was talking to a friend about timing.... as the bible has taught us, everything has its time and so, I always try to remind myself about doing different things at a different timing. My nephew always asked me to play with him during meal time and I asked him why did he always ask me to play with him during meal time and not after meal time. He laughed. I know he knew he shouldn't but he just want to make sure I get annoyed and see if I will break the rules.

I was very free two weeks ago and hence, I planned to get things done before the busy days arrives. However, during my free time, people who should give me information have been busy with things and hence, they weren't be able to furnish me with information I needed. My busy days has arrived since last week and somehow, other people are free now and so, they bothers me. One by one... I am not sure why didn't they want to look for me last week or so... and why didn't they come yesterday or Monday where I am less busy then today and the following days? Hmm.. it's just so weird of how free I can be some time and how busy I can be on another time.

Well, speaking on demanding. Many thought I am demanding for the past 2 weeks because I was free and I wanted things to be done and so people thought I pushed them too much. Now, the time is closer and closer to the due date and now, they are pushing me by calling me, my sms me to get things done and seriously, I didn't have the time to rush for them now. Time is one of the reason, the others would be, ... why now? Yeah... suddenly, I just have the "don't want to bother" momentum in me...

Ya... wrong timing that is... speaking of workload, seriously, I do not think anyone whom i know has more than what I have. Yes, I am told I have a choice to not attend some of the conferences. If you give me the choice and the freedom to choose, priority wise, I think there's only one I shouldn't even bother and that's the one I do not have momentum in. So... I hope things won't be last minute (I am not a last minute person at all) and I hope they don't come to me on a WRONG TIMING!
