Nobody's perfect!

Everybody makes mistakes just like what Hannah Montana said in her song entitled Nobody's Perfect!

Lyrics:

I know most of your will agree that everyone of us are bound to commit mistakes. It is not intentional, we don't meant to make mistakes but for some reason, we just cannot avoid it!.

My unavoidable mistakes

Ignoring Exercise Opportunities.

As an IT programmer, it is given that my job is to sit in front of my computer all throughout my shift. That's from Monday to Friday, and sometimes, even on Saturdays just like this week because we have weekend events that I needed to cover.

Provided that I cannot do any extra activities when I have work, coming weekend. instead of doing some exercise to stretch my sleeping muscles, sometimes, I would rather choose to sit in front of our television and watch Netflix movies the entire day until my energy has gone.

There are times where I manage to sit down in my stationary bike, however, my youngest son always invades me whenever he sees me biking.

Allowing FEAR to overpower my mind.

I am an introvert person. I don't talk to strangers I must say. At work, I won't talk to those am I not comfortable to talk with unless they talk to me or ask me a question, or they initiate a short talk with me.

But then I believe one of the main factor of myself being an introvert person is that the FEAR. I have lots of fear in my mind. I am afraid to talk with them (specially in English) because my grammar and accent is not good. Sometimes, I don't even know how to pronounce a word or sometimes I am lost as to what the English translation of the word that I am supposed to say is.

I am afraid to go out of my shell. Mainly because I am too shy to show them the real me. I am worried that they might criticize my physical appearance.

I am insecure in other words!. I am insecure the way I dress. I am insecure the way I talk. I am insecure the way I compose an email.

There are lots of insecurities inside me that's preventing me from doing social interactions with others (except to my team mates of course).

I have no enough confidence to showcase myself, and my skills.

Allowing others to abuse my kindness.

As much as possible, I want to please others. Hence, I don't want to disappoint them every time they ask any favor from me.

But then eventually, I slowly learned on how to say "NO". I am still in the learning process and admittedly, there are times that I still find it too difficult to say "NO" but I am still trying.

Failed to manage my anger.

I must admit!. I have a very poor anger management. I am very short tempered specially with my kids. I often burst and just throw my anger to my kids specially if they are so much "makulit!".

Sometimes, I am able to manage it and tame my anger by doing a deep breath. I breathe-in and breathe-out multiple times trying to calm myself. It helps to calm my mind.

But there are also times that my kids are too hard-headed that do not listen when I reprimand them nth times, and I am too busy at work or have an ongoing call. These are the moments that I fail to manage my anger anymore. I tend to shout for them to know that I am angry already, otherwise, they won't stop and continue doing whatever they are doing!.

I know all of us (no exemptions) has already committed a mistake.

As per the bible said in Romans chapter 3 verse 10 - "As it is written: There is no one righteous, not even one".

But the most important thing is that, we are trying to correct it. There are lessons in every mistakes so it is important that we learned from each mistakes and avoid committing it over and over again.

By the way, Jessie J has her version of Nobody's Perfect as well.
