Getting Serious

today i realise that i need to be serious if i want to improve or be gd at sth. be it sports, academic or anything.
i've somehow came to this conclusion that i'll nv achieve it if i continue to be slack. there's a time to play n there's a time to be serious.
[but the sad part is that being serious can harm the relationship between people. i dont know y most ppl have this wrong eqn that being serious = being hostile. is it the nature of human?]
i also realise that the process can be painfully slow or v awkward in the beginning. but as long as im ready to persevere thru all the awkward situations or processes n continue to practice. i'll be able to master it. the question is am i ready to do the work..?
well obviously it's easier said than done. i know that even though im 19. im still v immature n i have not learned to take actions. sigh.. i need to change my thinking.
1 gd news is that i've cut down the number of days n hrs spent on gaming. on the days when i game. the max hrs i game is 2 hrs. n im glad. hehe. :D but for week ends is a different story alrdy. lol. :X i'll change no wry.
hmm i think that's all for now. to be continued..
