It's that time of the year again. Yes it is! It's when us in the working world strive to reflect, think on hindsight and look forward to craft a strategy in the execution of our mission and vision statements.
And with the dark economic outlook ahead, the task is one that is both uncertain and full of challenges. But take heart, after all, 'successful' people are those who have overcome setbacks, challenges and trials in life and in any situations.
And what happened during the past weeks for me? Well, its been both a series of 'high ups and 'low downs", with significiant milestones worth mentioning I think. I'll break it down in this fashion:
1. My faith : renewed vigor! Due to the completion of lessons offered by our local faith group;
2. My family and friends: great result! son's primary 6 achievement being 1st/top of his class. And icing on the cake - his natinal exam result putting him on upper quartile of the students in Singapore.
3. My work : Low downs. With business trend going south, it is not unusual for people to tighten their belt, and in the process, trim down shipments and inventories.
My past 2 weeks have been nothing short of extraordinary. Some call it heroic even. I remember a passage which says - heros are ordinary people who are put under extraordinary circumstances producing extraordinary results, right? I have a gut feel I may be "CALLED" to play this role soon? (My gut feel's batting average never failed me yet somehow, so lets see...)
Your thoughts?
