WIP

I am certain many of you out there have heard of the term, 'W.I.P" or commonly spoken as WIP. WIP stands for Work In Progress. We always say WIP for something that's in the works, still in building, still in the formation stages and all the other pre-completion stages.

If you ponder about it in depth, you will realise that our lives are always in the WIP stages. We never really completely complete, no? Everyday we learn new things, experience new things, see new things, hear new things, do new things. That's us in WIP stages because we are never ever truly complete even if we finally breathed our last breath and kick the bucket.

But the best thing you can do for yourself is to keep maintaining the WIP and better still, grow the WIP!

If it's one thing I have learned since I started my professional career in an accounting firm is that constant learning and development is part and parcel of my career. But it applies even in my personal life trying to learn other things I can learn from reading the burgeoning myriad of knowledge bases that's out there - magazines, books, e-books, etc.........

Continuously being in WIP doesn't mean imperfection but rather it means you are always on the road to perfection because you never stop progressing. Even the most beautifully hand crafted building is still in WIP because it can never stay as beautiful as it is right now unless someone constantly maintains it (i.e. WIP!).

Business continue to grow, evolve and when necessary down size. Again, that's WIP!. WIP is everywhere if you'd take a step back and look around you. The globe spins constantly and continuously keeps us on our toes to make sure we continue to wake up in the morning and sleep in the night knowing that we have to do something about our lives that constantly in WIP.

If there's one favour you can do for someone, it'd be doing yourself a favour and making sure your WIP never stops growing and progressing........ But remember, being in WIP means you are bound to bump into rough spots, face doubts but being in WIP also means you will eventually progress out of glitches as long as you try earnestly to progress and grow.
