Little Things

I'm sure many find the term “It's the little things that make the difference” overrated. I used to think of it the same way.

I don’t look at it the same way anymore. Little things make significant difference. And this can be applied to every aspect of life; let it be on a personal level or professional.

With work, we often find the x-factor. When we plan for an event as an example, we always look for something extraordinary, something that has never been done before. Through my experience (of organising and attending events), the success of one project relies on the little things.

Why? It’s simple. Those little things place a great deal of impact.

My friends threw a surprise party for my birthday. It was special as it shows how much they cared for me. But honestly, I was not surprised because (i'm just too smart lol) everyone does it. That’s what friends are for anyway.

What made it really special were the details; foods were all my favourite stuff. They may not like it, but its there. And that has a great deal to me.

I’m glad to have eyes that notice all these little details and a brain to register the effort they put in. I just hope I will always stay this way.

Lets appreciate the little things people! It takes a lot of effort that are not visible.

p/s: and of course I appreciate the iPhone 3GS they gave me later on ;)
