Future Directions.... Where to go from here....

ahsun: =)


Made a major decision.... Decision is what shapes our destiny... and Action actually steps through the plan to execute them bit by bit.... making me get closer to the ultimate goal eventually.... Have been reading Anthony's Robbins "Awake the Giant Within" book and found lots of useful techniques to apply in my journey.... my new journey.... i feel that i need more motivational techniques... know-how.... good models to learn from and positive/constructive beliefs to build on and model so i can attain the same level of success at a shorter rate..... i don't want to hasten it too fast that i made a lot of mistakes along the way.... although.... failure are what guide me towards success as i learn from them.... what makes the failure a "good failure" will be the learning experience i took from the feedback of that particular failure itself....

Lots of stuff to settle.... the search for the 5 most important people in my new career is on.... haha... almost all are "captured"..... and got 3 potential clients including myself on the queue.... haha.... shiok!!! It's a good start.... must maintain the standard and keep up the good work.... i need to put on my learning cap.... to learn, train, make mistakes in front of my mentor and polish my skills.... so when i'm ready... i can go out and face the clients on my own.... shall merge those experiences, skillsets and knowledge i learnt as my own... to use them as my own..... feeling a bit jitty.... but... that's what makes life challenging isn't it???

Time to get hungry and stay foolish!!! Jiayou!! Crave out a new career ahsun!!!

Goals: What have i achieved.....

ahsun: =)


Sad to say.......Goal setting is easier said than done with..... but nevertheless.... i always try to go for what i want... so i wouldn't regret the time wasted or spent during the process of pursuing our individual goals..... just like every other person... procrastination always sets in when i have a list of to-do stuffs.... so how do i clear those stuff @ the shortest possible time leh??? i feel this is what i will do:

1. Write the tasks down
2. Describe the urgent-ness of the tasks and why it should be completed now
3. Think about why doing other stuffs(example cleaning table, watching tv) are not impt and should not be attempted like now....
4. Link the pain of delaying the urgent tasks and pleasant of accomplishing it
5. Get yr ass moving and just do it!!!!

These should be what i will do in future when procrastination sets in.... in the past.... i always let procrastination to eat away my timing.... and feeling lost.... i will really wait till last last min before i do those stuffs.... by then i will be slpy(*yawning) hungry or bored.... no motivation at all.... shall read up on NLP techniques to focus and concentrate myself in different situations so i can focus better..... fully utilized my time to the fullest....24 hrs a day isn't a lot lor..... ZzzZzzZzz

So what exactly have i achieved.... well i can say those small mini study goals i set out to do have mostly been accomplished.... mini tasks and errands to run have also been cleared..... some major goals unattended to are reading books.... reading online articles.... attending seminars for training in investment knowledge..... shall put aside goals which requires large amount of monetary support away first since there're secondary..... also i'm in the amidst of learning and expanding my financial literacy in areas of personal finance and stock market.... with the amount of knowledge online and in e-books.... i'm sure if i set out to do it.... i will accomplish it.... heehee!!! Jiayou!!!

Another goal which i missed out totally is fitness goals.... needa get my ass moved and kicking to run... swim... go gym!!! hahaha..... time for a serious makeover and workout!! Don't wanna stay at home become crouch potato anymore.... had enough of carrying those fats around where ever i go... lolx.... i need privacy.... FATS... pls go away.... ok.... !!!!!!

Yep... .time to reset new goals and re-enforce my goals in 5 areas of my life....pertaining to health, money,study,work and relationship!!!! Wheeeee...... must do it !!! Hopefully everyone have a goal to work towards....else u're like a headless-fly.... falling into other people's plan.... which i don't think they will draft out a very good/beneficial plan for ya huh..... so do take note....!!! =) To our Success!!!

Work: Lhub & Tuition Assignments

ahsun: =)


May marks the end of my tuition assignment which i had with one of the post graduate adult student who pursuing his PHD in NTU..... sad but... every good stuff must comes to an end right.... had been happily drawing lots of money from the tuition assignment.... makes me think that tuition-ing is a relatively good income source.... quoting from one of the motivational trainer i knew and heard from when i attended his introductory session.... he mentioned that to earn $200 more per mth is not difficult... tuition can be an alternative source of income if we're willingly to do so.... i agree with that....

Has been sending notifications to online tuition agencies and coordinators but no results from them either... sianz.... wonder whether i should go and look for students on my own.... since students are everywhere.... like targeting GCE O Level students in A/E Maths or Primary school mathematics.... should be good for me since i have the utmost interest in mathematics.... compared to other subjects..... *thinking.... Or if anyone got any job openings for assignment... feel free to contact me alright? Thanks in advance... need it badly!! hahaha.... =)

As usual.... weekends morning are all reserved for Lhub weekend duties.... recent changes in work place has also change some of my perspective of the work over there.... like why do they have such high turnover rate in other departments.... the change in company vision.... new focus... new courses.... new collaborations.... well... applying from what i know from strategy management.... they're perharps trying to diverse the courses available....shifting the focus to PMET i guess... which is a niche group of people in the exec or management level.... providing training for them.... hmmm.... then there's the popularity of language courses.... etc.... so many changes.... time to catch up on the email updates and re-learn all the stuffs again.... because i firmly believe.... when u equipped yrself with the necessary knowledge and supplementary knowledge you should have.... nothing should be able to daunt u upon the course of customer service process itself.... even if anything goes wrong.... customer just wants solutions isn't it.... even if i can't give them.... i can make them feel better.... the stuffs i learnt from CSP course really teaches me alot... changes altogether what customer service is and what it's not.... glad i went for the course.... lolx....

What other working opportunities can i still pursue??? I'm not too sure.... but i know.... there're always working opportunities out there to be discovered by us.... guess i need to break out of my comfort zone and grab those opportunities... who knows.... it might change my life entirely!!! =)

Study/NUS Work Updates....

ahsun: =)

What a great month of March, April through May..... Projects, Assignments due.... Class Tests.... Lectures.... Discussions.... Brainstorming Sessions.... and running around to meet clients.... schedule tasks among group members.... luckily i have a great project team working and also great team mates not to mention.... jun wen, shi jun, jac, calvin, maurice, patricia.... thanks for the great work u guys have done!!! I'm sure out project work couldn't have been at the highest standards without all of our commited team members!!! Hurray!!!!

Another semester have gone.... going into my last semester.... i starts to wonder.... whether all the hard work i have put into the previous semester... have they paid off?? Have i really learnt anything from this University Education Systems during my stint in NUS??? I start to think back.... because of the diploma i took previously.... stuffs wasn't that constructive.... and knowledge learnt were gone as soon as i wants to recall them.... that doesn't feels good.... in the process of studying... i can't help but wonder.... am i learning what the industry are doing??? or i gotta re-learn again when i starts to work in the society???

I guess the answer is pretty procedural... it goes like.... enter uni -> study hard for a good degree -> grab a job after graduation -> earn lots of money -> etc....

Can there be a possible alternative path i can take.... i start to explore other career opportunities.... and think about the pros/cons if there's any.... lots of uncertainties ... but nevertheless.... that's what the futures has in hold for us.... to embrace the future and grab hold of opportunities now.... learn as much as i can....so that i can learn and react to the different events happening in the unknown future....

I'm sure the knowledge i have learnt in NUS will propels me forward in whatever industry that i go into.... because.... IT is everywhere.... and expanding.... and integrating into every enterprises....

Haha.... enough of the deep thinking stuffs i had.... doesn't even sound like me anymore.... let me see whether i can get any photos to upload...... ZzzZzzzZz
