New Year… Same Spirit…

Hardy Chen — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 08:26:39 +0000

There is no significant change happen in 2009 for me, since I feel the same. The old habits is repeated every year. Not only me… but almost everyone do the same thing as new year came by.
This is a small example…

It’s a big sale. New Year Sale…
Yeap, it happen every year near the end of previous year. People are very busy, making such noise in every corner of the plaza.

It’s normal since we all know that we’re now facing global recession and we have to take advantage of every saving chance that comes.

2009 is also same as the previous year,… if we won’t call it worst.
Self control again is an issue. I did realize that our mind state and our mood is much more influenced by external factor rather than internal factor.
We’re somehow connected with everyone and everything around us.
Our work partner, our family, our financial, etc…
You can see that every entity around us is having much influence on how we react at something, how we think, and how we feel when we’re facing certain circumstances.

We’re connected each other and our destiny, our pathway of life often go into wrong direction as we try to save ourselves or defend ourselves.
Life is about survival, right?… but sometimes we’re applying wrong method to survive… and we never know it !!!

Now, I’m living with full of insecure feeling.
I have a lot of worries, and I don’t know where I’m heading into. I hope that I’m not heading into the death valley.

Thousand of People Will be Jobless

Recent news in Indonesian newspaper said that in a few months from now many people will lose their job. The cause is global crisis spreading from USA.
Indonesian product now lack of demand because USA now can�t afford to import as much as they did in the past. No sales, no money. No money, no jobs.
Haizzz� I hope the government will find some solutions for this problem.

The problem is this country is very depended on other country.
Yeah… it can�t be helped but in the future we should get lesson about this. We should consider about diversification and learn how to be an autonomous country.

How about you? Do you ever think about starting your own business instead of working for a company?

Recently, I read about online business article at this site : http://ebusiness.article89.com . I’m quite interested and I think I’ll try it.

Rupiah fall again… NooOOOoo!!!

The exchange rate is now 12.100 IDR per US Dollar.
It’s bad. Very bad… Now I can’t afford to buy a new motherboard and a new notebook. How pity I am.

It must be a good news for Indonesian people who have earning in US Dollar currency, but for me whose salary paid in rupiah… it’s ………… REALLY BADDDD !!!! ARRrrrGGGGhhhhhhh….

I don’t know.

Maybe I should working harder. Maybe it’s the sign that there is no time to enjoy myself. I have to work harder. The question is : Can I ??? T-T ufffff……

GANBATTE !!!
