Recently into positive thoughts and self-motivation.
I have not been in the mood to work since i tendered... realised that i felt much more repugnant to this job as compared to the doubts of myself over my ability to do a sales job. It made me realise that i'm not someone who enjoys things coming up with SOPs and clarifying discrepancies.. etc.. I'm just not meticulous enough for an admin job. This is quite a huge revelation and understanding of myself actually because i always thought i was someone so quiet and timid... most suitable for admin job as i like to see things done properly and i thought i was meticulous enough... apparently not.
And so, i will accept that as something i need to improve on. To be more detailed and careful in my daily work and not keep assuming the easiest way out. To put much more effort and commitment into my new sales role, an ultimately to be recognised by others of my capabilities.
I am going to be more generous, selfless and think of others more.
I am going to be a BETTER person and create a BETTER life both physically and emotionally as i owe it to myself and my parents! Maybe i have not gone through extreme adversity but i don't need to go through that in order to wake up. I can learn from the situations i see around me and learn to cherish my time on this earth even more.
THERE IS BUT ONE FAILURE IN LIFE, AND THAT IS THE FAILURE TO TRY.
DON'T LET FEAR OF UNCERTAINTY BE THE STUMBLING BLOCK TO A GREATER LIFE EXPERIENCE!

Mad happy that Sigma accepted my job application!! It's almost like a childhood dream - okay schooldays dream to get into sigma! and the bonus is i can leave this horrible waste-of-time job i am in!!! glad that it was a short sabbatical... and it definitely made me look forward to working hard in my new job at Sigma as a sales specialist.
yes... after trying out an office position, i think i definitely prefer moving around in a sales job. It's actually not too bad... where you actually have some products to talk to people about.. not that there won't be cold calling and stuff.. but its must better then sitting in an aircon room the whole day and letting ur butt keep expanding =x
Been reviewing my economics textbook yesterday and i really enjoyed it.. to learn not passively through the book but actually being able to think like an economist at the end of the day - that's my goal!
Review of what i learnt yesterday which is oh-so applicable in everyday life. Life is made up of choices and it comes because of a scarcity in resources - time, budget... and so we have to think through what is the best choice to make and what is the opportunity cost that we have to sacrifice. Also, it is important to have a niche or specialise in something.. in this way, we can have a comparable advantage over others. last but not least, a trade will always lead to gains... in one form or another... thats why we are constantly interacting with people and trading everyday! =) Happy trading and hope i will learn more and be more mature as i go along! cheers and i shall write more consistently ;)
