This is how I plan to enjoy and allocate my free time this month, at least.
the RELIGIUS THINGS.
Rehearsing the Ramadhan.
Reading the holy Qur’an to complete, I put it as first priority since Ramadhan just passed, and I want to embrace the spirit of how we did our Ibadah in that month.
1 hour, Every Morning. Plus a book about Penyembahan dan Penyerahan diri, and feel the magic of it
Apologizing for the sinful youth, and any wrong doing to the Mighty Allah [S], by fasting sunnah, and nightly pray. On Every other night.

the COFFEE SEEKER
Enjoying Tanzania Coffee.
My friend brought me a souvenirs of coffee back from her business trip to Tanzania on sanitation programs. There are two can of them, AfriCafe, and TanCafe, all strong, acid Arabic’s black coffee.Plus one from the parcel luckydraw, a local canned coffee BuenoCafe. All sum up to 950 grams that’s enough for the month.
On every afternoon.
C’est la vie, the bean is reap in down the high mountain village where poverty and slavery is detachable from bitter taste.
Far, and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.
Theodore Roosevelt
Two days ago I sent an e-mail to a young friend about 30 years old, to advice about his career, and then I was referring to mine. At the end of forty, was it relevant to think about self career? At least, considering the future job when I am retired. When will it be?
Back years, my career path is grown horizontally after reached to the Chief Financial Officer, and jumped from one to another company with different type of business. I should be grateful to God, for anywhere I landed, I got a cozy position. But sometimes a cozy could spoiled you, and then I decided to resign [high motivated, over confident, as if I was capable to managed business]. Very naive to simplify rule of business, and I was on my own.
Well it was not a sudden decision. I have been moonlighting for a while to start a small Waroeng. When I am fully handled the business, it grew very impressive, soon my small Waroeng | restaurant moved to a leased outlet in a mall, and became 3 outlet in two years. The key is good food, big portion and affordable for office employees, since I did not have background in culinary, or food industry, I just made my customer happy. Then I focus to another business [Event Organizer], and handed the management to my wife, the business still run well.
And problems began to raise,am ready to face the second stages of growth where we faced a crisis on managerial control, and gradually dies……
I am back to professional job, and two weeks ago I tried to apply abroad though the internet [www.seek.com.au], whooa the requirement are very formal, I should have be CA/CPA [certified accountant| public accountant] which I was not interested. I also considered to get an MBA, but is it worth doing?
Yesterday, I met my former staff who asked me to join his project in property development, well I should thinking over. Could this be my future career? The fact is my kids has grown up now and consequently they need a lot of bucks, I must work harder but it should be work worth doing as quoted above, so I am feeling rewarded not only obligation .
To have a choice is luxury..
