I was at work last week preparing a presentation.
Then I got an instant message from a girl.
She says: “Can we play?”
It was my 10 year-old pamangkin Calista in Australia :D .
She has a new gmail account and she happened to be online the same time I was.
She wanted to play a game of scrabble via Yahoo YM.
I was about to say: “I cannot play now. I am at work.”
But I remembered Randy Pausch story:
When you’re in Disneyland, you can ask any of their staff: “What time does the park close?”
They will reply: “The park is open until 8pm.”
Focus on the positive, focus on the possibilities. ;-)
Instead of telling Cali “I cannot play now,” I told her “I can play on Monday morning before I come to work.”
Thus, my first Online Date with Calista. But I got stood up! hahaha!
At least I had some personal time for myself ;-) .
Focus on the positive, focus on the possibilities.
