Just went for a inspiring career talk yesterday. I thought that i would be sleeping and it would be a total waste of time. Surprisingly, the first speaker who came up was really eloquent and his speech was intriguing and interesting. He talked about how he started his business, empathyproductions.com. It is a really cool website that i have checked out. He started off as a freelance web designer. This created a spark for him to start a business to earn much more profits. He began his business just before he completed his diploma. He must have studied real hard cause he got the Certificate of Merit. He is right now a full-time NUS student, a full-time business man as well as a full-time song writer. He told us about the amount of hard work as well as his personal experience and downfalls while setting up the business... he practically works 24 hours in a day! When he started his business, he had to live on his parents and had practically almost nothing to eat!
His determination, perseverance as well as hard work(loads of it!) was like a wake up call to me. It reminded of the days that i would toil and study hard in PJC. It doesn't mean that i can do less work and relax more just because i am in poly. I will be working really hard! Going back to those days where i LOVE working. Having work to do is great! HAha... work hard now... then next time i can reap what i sow...
By the way, i will be assigned a place to work for my ITP(industrial attachment) REAL SOON! I'm pretty nervous about it, i really hope that the teacher will assign me a job that i can handle. So please pray for me? That'll be my prayer request! Thank You, Love ya All
