Finding PeMi (Peace of Mind) ;p

Just enjoying my saturday night by resting on my bed. Tdnya mau tidur, badan cape bgt hr ini abis kerja bakti di kantor, tp ga bisa tidur2. Jdnya leyeh2 sambil baca koran deh. Udah lamaaa bgt kyny ga baca koran. Hihi
And I found this article by the career coach Rene Suhardono. Judulnya: Be Mindful with Ur Mind. Dan ternyata pas sama apa yg smpt kepikiran in my mind bbrp hari ini.
Lately I was so busy, so overloaded with work. I'm handling some residential projects (one self project, one sharing project, and one follow up project - yg harusnya uda bs dikelarin tp blom kelar2. Grrr). Dan kadang2, tanpa disadarin klo lg hectic tuh ya, rasanya semua project itu ngejer2 gw. Semuanya minta cpt diberesin, cepet di follow up, cepet digambar, cepet dikerjain, dsb. Blom klo ada masalah di lapangan. Detail ini ga bs lah, salah pasang lah, kerjaannya ga maju2 lah, dsb. Klo udah gitu rasanya pengen kabur aja. Pengen tidur n ngarep bangun2 tu project udah jadi semua n bagus, klien seneng, bos seneng, semua seneng. Hehe tp yah mo gimana lagi, klo lg hectic gt kan ga bs kabur gt aja, dan tetep harus bs beresin kerjaannya. N I don't know why, klo udah pusing dan stress dan overloaded gt, bawaannya malah jd males n ga semangat kerja ;p
But this week I've been reminded of this verse again: "Be STILL, and know that I am God." Kadang di tengah ke-hectic-an itu, kita butuh utk bs nenangin diri, finding peace in ourselves. Be still itu bukan maksudnya jadi diemin diri n ga melakukan apa2. But it means we have peace in our mind, won't let those obstacles n problems n worries take control of our mind, and trust God, that He holds our life completely in His hands. When u are still, God will tell u what's the best thing to do to solve ur problems, how to do it, etc. So u don't let those problems and worries overload ur mind, but u're letting God to take control of u. Cause letting ur mind be filled with those troubles and worries won't help u at all. So, now I'm learning to find peace in the middle of a storm :) it's not easy, and I'm still learning ;p
Anw, in the article I read this evening, Rene mentioned some that I found encouraging:
* Be mindful with ur mind. Pikiran itu ky kutu loncat, pindah dr 1 topik ke hal lain. Hilang kontrol atas pikiran sama aja dgn biarin diri dikuasain sama si kutu loncat.
* No one ever injured his eyesight by looking at the brightside.
* We may not live in the best of times, but we can live the best of time.
So, I'm learning to let go of this 'kutu loncat' n just let the good God control my mind and heart. Hope we all will learn the same :)
