Preparations:Attitude speaks

1. Time management: The prerequisite, so much to do but so less of time.
2. Be able to get up early.
3. To question the status quo;
4. To be confident but with no attitude.
5. Be a student always and do not think you have learned everything.
 
   This is absolutely me! I am just a curious baby - wanna to try almost everything !
    I never never could stop myself from seeking new things, especially those I did not   know, those seemed unique to me, those I am not familiar with ... That is my fate, also my problem.


But curiosity could kill a cat...


6. Do not force it - The right course of action might be to slow down and take another look at the situation before executing.

I have been practiseing YOGA in China, for almost one year.
I have a peaceful heart in my mind, abide by the doctrine of YOGA philosophy, and also try to slow down my pace. But I still have passions for the world, the BIG world. That drives me out of my country, in fact my hometown and my family, the castle I have always wanna flying out of.

I missed them now and then since I came out, but actually I entered into another one I created by myself. I had nothing to regret, so I must accept everything the FATE bring to me.

After looking through all-my-38-subjects-in-one-year, I have no idea at all. What could I do when there are only one month left before the study begins?

7.Sheer humble, thankful and inspired.
It seemed the above three adjectives were the only GUIDE I could follow.
