Naval Letter Chapter 16

 Date: 13 Apr 2021


Day & Time: Tue 21:32 


Dear Rabbit,


When was the last time you regretted making a decision? Today I just realised I made a big fat wrong move. 


And this move may cause lots of inconvenience for the next one and a half year.


You see, everytime we make decisions, we tend to think of 'now' and not the future, especially at a young age like me. 


'Now' is like instant gratification, and 'Future' is delayed gratification. Most of us prefer instant as we can get what we want immediately but it may not help in the long run, and delayed gratification is what we can't have now but will give lots of benificial rewards in the future. 


Is like drinking coke or herbal tea for quenching thirst. Most would prefer coke some would prefer tea. 


Another example is if you are given a choice of 1 million dollars Vs $0.01 (multiply twice each day) which one would you choose? Most would choose the million-dollar, I would choose the latter. 


Now for my action I did months ago, have made me happy for that moment but I did not think of potential future consequence, resulting today's mess. 


Ok, it's not entirely a BIG mess, but I still have to deal with daily worries on family, personal and work side. 


Regardless, let's be patience and see how things goes! 


Writing you in tomorrow, 

SECURE!

Naval Letter Chapter 23

 Date: 20 Apr 2021 Day & Time: Tue 23:39 Dear Rabbit, Guess what I did for today, its pretty chill and I like it a lot.  How I wish it is like this everyday, every single day.  Wash up galley, rest and DONE.  DONE and DONE.  No Cooking!  And it's my favorite!  I spent my time reading advertising solutions and it like how it was going, one thing I could reduce is to not sleep too much, hahhaha, nap twice.  But you know what? This is the lifestyle I enjoy, study and focus on my learning.  After secure, went back home and started round 2 of learning.  Learning from people who are better than I am in terms of copywriting and marketing.  It's such a bless.  Till tomorrow,  SECURE!

Naval Letter Chapter 22

 Date: 19 Apr 2021 Day & Time: Mon 18:47 Dear Rabbit,  Today I took off, so there is no recepie, that said this whole week have no cooking!  Hahaha Today I hit 80% of what I have to do, but... I feel that im still I'm unproductive.  You see, most of my work are listening and thinking. The only 'physival' work I done was 1h of writing.  That is my only work done.  The rest of the list is exercise, e-lesson, and meeting.  And the lesson is not me sitting down and listen, it is me listening while cooking. How interesting is that? And this made me think, y am I so lazy?  And I thought of James, what he will do?  He will study copywriting.  That's for sure.  So now the question here for myself is:  What do I need to do to study copywriting?  And the answer is very simple  Read the books that I already have.  Go through YouTube ads breakdown Attend webinar and courses. I have the answer, yet I don't take action. An...

Naval Letter Chapter 24

 Date: 21 Apr 2021 Day & Time: Wed 22:20 Dear Rabbit,  This whole week is all about waiting for time to pass.  There is nothing to be cooked and I really enjoy the process.  When there is nothing to be done, what I can do is to do my own stuff, which I did goal setting, what I thought was creating a vision for myself but ended up creating a 5-year goal.  That is good, but I need to refine it, 5-year goal to annual goal, to bi-monthly goal, and then to daily habits.  It's top to bottom, not bottom-up.  And it's a good opportunity, I make use of the 3 hours.  What I will do tomorrow is to finish reading up my book on advertising solutions.  And create 1 mth (or 2) content around it, and I'm sure I can.  After seeing how UJ teach M how to create content, I sure I can too, and I can focus my content creation on other areas.  Content creation currently is daily written, what I need to do is to write more efficiently.  Create in ...
