一个傻傻的午餐!

(Day by day, I’ Loving Italian foods)

一个傻傻的午餐!

那个下午,一碟意大利面及一杯果汁,就这样我坐了九十分钟!说真的,我也不知道我什么时候爱上意大利食物。我猜想,也许我很向往到罗马(意大利首都)生活吧!

无论如何,那天的午餐,我觉得是我人生中一个很措手不及的午餐!不知道什么原因,一直对自己很有信心的我,竟然会对着那一杯果汁一直地搅拌,一直用手上的小棒去搅拌那一杯果汁!

(Grape-shake and me)

心中,我的心中真的有很多故事想分享,但我知道我不能说出口!现实及理想往往是两回事,因为我们总不能一直认为每一样事都可以用 1+1=2 去解答!

梦想总是一个很不实际的想法,因为只有努力梦想才有机会实现!我们总不能空想但不作,我们反而应该少说多做!就因为这样,我看到了每一个问题,所以我才不断的努力学习,奋斗,以便我以后有一个更美好的将来,尤其在事业基础上!

其实,我早已不把以前的发生放在心上了!我只想我们大家可以好好地生活,好好地面对生活上的点点滴滴。不论发生什么事情,我们一定要学习好好珍惜自己;尤其是我们宝贵的生命!

那一杀那的眼汪汪,是因为沙进眼了!哈哈!说真的,当我知道你之前经历了那一场生死之刻,我顿时也被吓坏了!就因为这样,我知道什么事物对我来说才是最重要的!所以我们一定要知道自己要什么,我们更应该学习惜福及珍惜!

一年了,说真的我也不知道我对于那份热忱还有多深!我想,这个答案只有我自己知道!但,我想对自己说,无论如何,将来怎样,我会好好的努力,因为我知道这是唯一最有保障的一条道路。除了努力,我还会继续不断地增加自己的努力。

也许,总有一天,皇天不负有心人!我会得到自己想要的东西!万事不强求,一切以平常心看待!

When I decided to quit my profession as a CIVIL ENGINEER!

When I decided to quit my profession as a CIVIL ENGINEER!

The Road Not Taken,

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both, And be one traveler, long I stood, And looked down as far as I could, To where it bent in the undergrowth!

For sure, I think everyone of you could imagine how suffer my mind was when the moment of making a decision of DO @ DON’T in giving up to be a Civil Engineer, a dream career since I was standard 5!

But, I eventually chose to give up at this moment because I really want to take it as my biggest challenge in my life. I understand myself well and I know who am I actually, from the past and till now, I am confident in myself and I have been calculated all the possible risks in my career undertakings!

No worries, I am now working in a Recruitment Consultancy (http://www.fbchartmycareer.com/) and surely this industry is totally different with my 4 years study in UTM.

(The Road Not Taken, I like it so much!)

(Where to go, an easier way of Tough & Challenging ones?)

Dear Friends,

If you ask me why I decided to join the consultancy rather than to join a construction company to carry the title of Engineer, then I guess I would answer you as following: “Life is so unpredictable and no one could really expect what is happening in next second, just life how I decided to choose to leave my original profession. To be an entrepreneur and to start from a very strange beginning point, I decided to run for my co-partnership business. I don’t dare to foresee what would the company be in future, but I am sure that I can realize my dream when the company is on the right business track record later.”

When I look on my age, I am right 24 years old. In this age, 85% of fresh graduates decided to go for career opportunity, and 15% of fresh graduates go for entrepreneurship just like what I am doing right now. There would only about 10% out of the total of 15% of fresh graduates (­~ less than 1.5% of total fresh graduates) eventually make a success in life. The rest of the young entrepreneurs will probably end up the business and go back to work due the reasons of No Cash Flow and Poor Business Management!

So, how dare am I here!

(Here I am, a good view of office that located next to Singapore)

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-, I took the one less travelled by, And that has made all difference.

Before signing the contract, my parents were keep on asking why I chose for such a job as my career development. It is because they thought that the tittle of Engineer is so smart and so arrogant when they tell their friend that their son is an Engineer. I’m sorry baba and mama because I know you all have really wished to see me to be an engineer after a long-wait of 4 years of my study in UTM. But I promise that my current career opportunity is a golden change for me to totally to change my future as I predicted and calculated the risks.

There is no U-Turn for me at this moment, but there is on a SUCCESS in my eyes. If the rest of 1.5% of fresh graduates could make a CHANGE, and why don’t me. Whatever I can do now is to work smart and work steady all the time.

Leading to Excellence, I must always keep myself alert, smart & sensitive in the business sense to make sure a SUCCES comes to the team. Nevertheless, I MUST start learning from the bottom, to learn new knowledge in my life and to always keep updating myself the latest news.

DON’T @ DO, I chose DO to make a change in my life and taking this Challenge as a part of learning curve!

May I Be Well and Happy!

Whatever I do, I still consider Berlin Rome Vienna as my aim. The moment I decided to form a business, it was the moment I think the way with me now is the fastest way to bring me to be with you, cheers for BerlinRomeVienna!

The inspiration I learnt & the direction I got from KUANTAN-CAMERON HIGHLANDS Trip 2011 - Part 2

(A Great View here but how dare you to take all the challenges before reaching the peak?)

… after the Kuantan Trip, I continued to spend my vacations at Cameron Highlands, one of a local famous high land travelling locations.

The cool whether in Cameron has really brought many ideas for my life and career. I could feel that I’m released & fresh when the cool wind blow on face, it then really eliminate my worries and anxiety!

Many of good ideas I got when I was travelling in jungles, having coffee time at Starbucks, travelling to vege & fruit farm and observing people there.

During jungle tracking, I know what the meaning of “bitterness first after sweetness 先苦后甜” is. It was great when you can see the best view of Cameron when you are on the top. It reflected the reality in life that we can enjoy the most when we have successfully accomplished the preplanned aims! The journey of making success if very tough & difficult just like the journey of climbing the mountain, but the feeling of success if great and undescribed just like how you feel to see the top view of Cameron.

(When you are on the top, you will see the great view. But, how dare you to take all the challenges before reaching the peak?)

Coffee time, it brings me most of ideas in career and business. I foresee my ways in making a success in my career and then to expand my business. Everything is just like coffee; you would feel the bitter before the sweet taste comes to you. In business, you & I need time to stabilize your company profile. You need more great ideas to move on your business, you need brilliant executor to drive through all policies and you need a smart leader to observe all possible problems before it brings you down in business. There are always up and down in life, but I know I will choose to be tough as like Cactus!

(Again, my best coffeemate)

I like the feeling when I was in vege & fruit farms, it is because I could imagine the process of how a success being made in reality. Through the pictures imagined at farm, I could see how a vegetable (cabbage) being sold in market; the seeding process, planting process and last is harvesting process. Life is about processes, we need to make sure that every single part in life is fully cared and plan. There is no shortcut in making a success, but you can only accomplish your life with colourful ending if you choose to follow the steps.

(The processes are the successful driver to bring you into a success!)

(No matter what we do, be the good one; I see an owner of strawberry farm treated all disabled people a cup of strawberry juice and donated two hundred for the church PIC. So, there are still many good mankinds ya!)

Observing people, I like to observe people especially the people in different towns. I could feel the local people in Cameron are very nice and humble. The small highland township has produced a humble people here, they welcome people with smile and they are sincere with people too. Here, I feel the sincerity of people and I know that we must always share our love and concern with people especially those needed people. Again, I read the mind of people too, to ensure I could know the needs of someone before bargaining with people.

(Different people with different thoughts, it is good to know your friends and opponents well!)

(I wish I could be as Cactus, living in desert with limited water source and be tough to survive!)

Whatever we do, we do the best; wherever we go, we do the smartest too!

Remember, the most successful person is the person who achieves the aims that he has planned! If you want to enjoy the beautiful view from the highest point, be the challenger and you need to initiate yourself to climb the mountain and you would enjoy the view eventually! No one can beat you; it is all about how far you put the effort and how well you plan your ways.

(Special thanks for our best tour leader, Ah Jy junior since he has really sacrificed for us of the fantastic hospitality in Cameron!)

Rome Was Not Built In A Day, so success needs time too!

Give yourself a chance; choose the best way for yourself in making a chance in life. Let’s move together and let’s plan together for the betterment of tomorrow and future!

<If I could choose, I will still choose to be the initiator because the initiator will experience the most in the processes and of course he gains the most too>

<When I decided to quit being a civil engineer, it meant I’m ready to accept all possible challenges & difficulties in future. “The Road Not Taken”, I understood how a person feels insecure when he was in the junction for making a choice, left of right, and yet it decides your future because only Attitude will decide my FUTURE>

(How I use my jagung to become my sword!)

Lastly, I sincerely wish myself happy working and good luck in my career & business. May all well beings go for my career path undertakings.

Metta!

The inspiration I learnt & the direction I got from KUANTAN-CAMERON HIGHLANDS Trip 2011 - Part 1


When the waves come to the beach, I feel the strength of the ocean; when the waves hit on the granite (stone) besides the gulf, I discover my strength. No one could foresee his finite strength, unless it’s been discovered just like the waves!

I love Kuantan, because I love the combination of little city and the beach there. I love Teluk Cempedak the most because I guess it would be the best ever beach in Peninsular of Malaysia. The natural views there are very nice; surrounded by a mount (Bukit Pelindung) with the McDonald (Oreo McFlurry) and snow-white beach!

(I like McFlurry at TC McDonald the most, never share with others unless my dream girl)

(My class during I was in lower 6, SABS)

(Funny side board in Kuantan, I guess many Kuantan people notice it and some of them must feel guilty if they do wrongdoing ya)

I then spent half a year there for my lower six study there, in 2005. I met my friends there and I met her there too. That is why I go back to SABS to snap a picture.

Times pass by, I am now about 24 years old and there is a new life waiting for me. I need more strengths and wisdom to overcome every single difficulty that I might be facing one day later. But, I am sure that I will never escape from the problem since I believe in “Problems Come, Problem Solved and Problems Are Here to Test People’s Maturity”. No one will ever know that how far we can be the master of the problems, if we are ready to overcome it and then we would beat them up! Straight from the heart and straight from the mind, you and I will see the courage to beat the rest! CHEERS…

If there is a chance, I think I will be thinking to settle down myself at Kuantan. It is because I really enjoyed the days there and I think it would be a suitable place for me! Of course, I like Kemaman Kopitiam the most there especially the Kemaman Kopi C Ice, hehe. I drank two cups of Kopi C Ice there too.


(Super striker here; the ball was kicked until it burst in the sky and become “balless” kick)

(My best brothers from UTM)

Anyway, life is so simple when you and I are ready for everything in future; ready for the challenges and difficulties and we need to solve it!

Good Luck then!
