		<description>Everyone goes through a rough patch in his/her lives.
It is how our attitude which determine the end result of this.

We can come out stronger, or we may just want to walk away from the challenges. Whatever your choice is,

Stay Happy and life is short... sometimes, we just get too bogged down with too much worries, concerns and perhaps too mindful of how and what others look at us. :)

As long as we know what we really want in our lives, go fight for it, and stay true to what you want. :)</description>

		<description>Thanks for the concern, you guys made my day :)

And thanks Pete, those are very useful questions that helped me make a shift. You should do a post on them...I think they can help people more than myself.</description>

		<description>Alvin, you can talk to one of us. We are fellow life coaches and friends to top it off.

Sometimes I find it helpful to put emotions aside just to get a bearing.

After spending enough time at feeling confused and distraught, take a time-out: just for the next 10 minutes, choose to be your normal cool self or someone else you know whom you think will handle your situation better than you.

Then you can do some of that solution-focused stuff...good thing about it is that you don&#039;t have to disregard your feelings while you are at it.

What do you want (in positive terms)?
Where are you now?
What is useful now...to get to your outcome?
What is one thing you can do now to make you feel better?
Do it now.
What is the one thing that will cause all other wheels to turn towards resolution?
What do you commit to do about it?
Define 1st Action Step.
Keep feeling better.

Call me, if you don&#039;t wanna do this step-by-step thingy, you know my strongest suite is all the unconscious shit. It&#039;ll start to sort itself out even before you are thinking of calling me now.</description>

		<description>Thank you all for your kind words of encouragement. Right now things are really tough for me - I&#039;m going through all sorts of emotions now, feeling very confused. I hope to see the light soon, and come back stronger.</description>

		<description>If you&#039;re reading this during your short break Alvin, do know that you are now situated at the lower part of the cycle. 

That only means you are getting ready to jump back up and leap forth, with renewed strength and vigour.

All the best and yes, support is here if you want it.

Happy New Year! 

Cheers</description>
