Recently, have you been feeling depressed in your own ways..? We all do, there’s no denying, maybe ignorant?
Passion in life have changed? Maybe. Focus in life differs? Probably.
During our period back from graduation times until recent times, any changes?
Often human focus all on career those days, it’s natural. Born to be wild (excel) feeling?
These are the times to remember… getting stronger and stronger emotionally and on facts of life. Sometimes banging on walls to realize the pain? Phew…
Aging… ever wonder? Ok, before I traumatize anyone, let’s share some part of my life shall we?
I didn’t go all out on my education, diploma in IT. I figured it’s probably time to make some bucks… Been through some hardship to realize there’s no free lunch. 1998, my liVe’s first turning point.
Got a job in Singapore selling vacuum cleaners, tough stuff… 15 kgs, 15 blocks a day… 150 slammed doors… 1st couple of months surviving on RM 550. That IS tough.

3rd month got kicked out from the flat I rented with overdue payments. Carried 2 suitcases to the office and everyone were wondering…
A close office colleague invited me to bump in to his apartment with minimal rental charge. What an Angel. (At least I got away with 2 months free rental prior)
There on my skills in work got better… only 15 slammed doors. Good improvement. Best moment to remember, I won the Annual National Field Day Award (whole of Singapore’s LUX salesmen). Not officially though, not telling you why this time… At least I still hold that award.

Eventually I got bored being not able to achieve big bucks. KL, here I roam!
1st Job, selling computer solutions. In 3 months I was top salesman (team of 6). There on I got adventurous in earning fast cash… next 3 months, it was all mine… but on the sales board… near zero.
Naturally without any good explanations, I got fired.
2nd Job, System Administrator (data entry clerk a.k.a. one leg kicking). Got bored in 3 months. Office location 5 minutes from my house but I was always late for work, you can imagine…
2000, my liVe’s second turning point.

"Office location 5 minutes from my house but I was always late for work, you can imagine…"

Some of the billionaires went bankrupt in their year of 50's.
Also take care my lovely sister, although she did not treat me 100% good but i will still treat her as my 100% good sister.
Good luck to me and you
