Illusions of a perfect me in tomorrow

When I first reached Singapore, I would not satisfy with what I have already done, and go into raptures at the mention of the life in tomorrow, though tomorrow would be another day without content indeed. Regrets always came to me immediately I finished a speech or turn an essay in, for what I did was far from perfection. Therefore I believed tomorrow’ life was somehow superior to today’, and nothing can be compared, when I waked up next day, with ambition and enthusiasm, caught the sight of the rising sun glinting on the wall of dormitory, then had the confidence to make everything splendid. However, the fact was that I always struggled on my feet to wake up, and groomed myself in a quick and cursory way, so as to catch up with the last commuting bus.

Although the illusion was broken easily when a new day was coming, a new illusion would soon replace the old one. Due to this fact, I cannot envisage the consequence of my behavior, however terrible or excellent it was. Therefore I continually consulted for advice from my parents and friends. Maybe the illusion could provide me a positive attitude to face the challenge tomorrow to some extent, but it left me a side effect on not trusting myself in return.

Fortunately, after several days’ auto criticism, I realized that I can expect that tomorrow is better, while I cannot deny today is good as well. “Every day is special”--- this motto will never fade in my memory.

  1. It's hard and nearly impossible to be a perfectionist. Every one will undergo a period of time during which he or she is low spirited or frustrated. What you should do is to be confident of yourself and work hard, make progress with partners.

  5. Maybe we should learn to compromise to ourselves sometimes.Don't push ourselves too hard, be proud of what what we have achieved. Learn from the mistakes but don't torment yourself with it.

  6. I think every day is special. Life is not an illusion. You are in control of your life--you make things happen or not happen according to what you choose to do. Don`t let circumstances control you. And remember this motto: the best is yet to be!
