"In life, it does not matter what happens to you, it's what you do with what happens to you tat matters most."

Page 31 of Chinkee Tan's latest book "For Richer, For Poorer"

When it rains as you are about to step out of your home for work, there is definitely nothing you can do to stop the rain. However, there are a list of things that you can do so that you won't become wet -- bring an umbrella, wear a raincoat, call cab, borrow your spouse car, ask your spouse to drive you to work, wait it out, and so on and so forth. You can either feel miserable or choose to remain cheerful.

When your company close down there is absolutely nothing you can do about unless you are the owner or the son of the company owner. However, it's not yet the end of your world. You can either look for a new job or drank yourself to sleep feeling miserable and hopeless.

Raining is not important, closing of the company where you work is not so important. What is important is that you will never give-up, that you will continue to give your best.

Do not focus on the things that happened to you, now and in the past,  that is beyond your control, instead focus on what you can do to improve your current situation.

God doesn't require us to succeed; he only requires that you try.

-- Mother Teresa

God's system works like this: man "plants" something for his own benefit and for the benefit of others, God "makes" the seed grow and bear fruits. Man does not make the seeds grow, but for him to eat he only needs to plant the seed and God will take care of the rest.

God in his infinite wisdom knows very well man's limitations. But weak and limited as man is, God still requires man to try and give his best in every endeavor that he does most specially in serving and helping others because God will take care of the rest. Therefore, man succeeds not really because he's that good but because God blessed his best efforts, and allowed him to succeed.

So in every endeavor that we do, it is always wise to ask for God's blessing before and during the whole proceeding. And gives him praise whether you reach your goal or not.
