Faults

I realised that I have a bad habit of making things difficult for myself. I've been doing too much last-minute packing when I really should have settled everything early. As a result, I have been troubling my parents more than I should and have been reprimanded by them for doing things "last minute". I think one part of me is too lazy to do things as soon as I can, the other part of me likes the challenge of meeting a time constraint. Either way, it's not a good habit to have and I will have to try to be more well prepared next time.

A game we played during the Ubin camp also made me recognise one of my biggest faults. I have been guilty of lacking in initiative and have a tendency to wait for instructions. I should really take charge more often and not let a lack of confidence prevent me from doing what has to be done.

I think that all along, we all know what our faults are. We just hate to admit our faults and hate it even more when others point them out to us. It takes a lot to recognise one's own faults and even more to do something to change it. It's not easy, but then, anything worth doing is never easy.
