Came across this chart just a couple of minutes ago, sparked off a fireworks display of thoughts and emotions.
The impact it had on me went straight pass my mind and hit me straight in the heart with a nail. We're all chasing what we want the wrong way. That's why, even if we get all the way up, we won't be happy. I'm not saying for all.
A very gentle and subtle yet piercing reminder of what I am trying to achieve and where am I headed. Passed by Ogilvy Center, where Ogilvy and Mather is housed, and the feeling was that of awe. Despite it being a Sunday, without the hustle and bustle of the people working in there, it still brought me to a standstill right at the doorstep.
The realisation that it's so near to us, and yet, still so far, was a luminous post-it note sticking out from Raffles Place, where it somehow, doesn't look like it belongs. We've been passing by this place time after time, without taking any notice of it. Perhaps, we were ignorant of the existence of Ogilvy and Mather. Perhaps, our destination then was different.
Now, it's no longer just a building. It's no longer just Ogilvy.
It's a dream. Somewhere we want to belong.
"Power is a quiet smile. It's knowing that no matter what, you can. It's understanding the value of friends; and having friends. It's the strength to hold on; and to let go. It's being fair in an unfair world. Power is being you. Power drives you. Then you drive it."
