Yadda yadda yadda

I haven't got a clue why i started this blog anyway but here's my first posting...after a year creating this account. Perhaps i'm just not like the rest of the Gen-Ys- tech savvy and active social networkers. I miss the good ol' days when used we call each other to share about our lives instead of tweeting, facebook-ing, my space-ing (or whatever else is out there) about it. Still, it is inevitable that we have to adapt and embrace the new space age that's coming.

Last week, a wise aunty reminded me that in life we must not stop learning, regardless how significant or not the matter may be. So, here I am...learning how to navigate through a blog.

I changed my previous blog title from "Butterfly and Chocolates" to "Wannabe Millionaire" because i left the corporate world last year to start my own venture with the dreams of making my first million. So... what do i know about running a business? I admit it's not much but in this 2 months, i learnt that being a business owner is about 1. making sacrifices. You sacrifice your public holidays, long holiday breaks, annual leave (well..in this case, i don't have annual leave) and sleep for the business. 2. Attitude. You've got to come into office everyday with confidence, positive thinking, and with a "can do" attitude thus giving your employees the motivation to work just as hard as you. 3. Perseverance & patience. There are times when things JUST DON'T GO YOUR WAY. Knowing my short temperament, i'd be be fuming and ranting on about my frustrations. But in business, you must always remain calm and patient because there just isn't any room to make mistakes. It could cost you! And when things are looking a bit bleak, never despair but go out and seek for opportunities. You'll never know what you may just find.

4. Willingness to learn from the best people and new skills whenever, where ever.

Looking back, I never regretted leaving the corporate life. Just wish I have done it sooner.
