Keeping my fingers crossed....

Well...as the dust settles down...it is also clearer that...now my life's new motto will be
'WORK...IF YOU WANT MONEY!'... he he he

Running, your own business means more risk more money and more time is essential....

So far, the response on my business....have been quite good...
we have already submitted proposal for 2 5-digit figure projects...
One of it being quite a medium5-digit and the other low 5-digit...

so far, the chances for the low 5-digit are quite high..in terms of the chances we have to land the project so...we are really hoping to land one before the end of the year...

as for the medium 5-digit....i will really have to wait for some sort of response before saying anything at all.

There are already 2 requests for proposal....which I'm working on today. It's Xmas afternoon...but i'm working. Well, this is how it's going to be from now onwards....

Apart from all those mentioned above we also have a Government tendered project in pipeline...which has agreed to transfer to my new company under certain conditions. This project belongs to the previous company, but when I wanted to transfer to my new company the rules didn't allow that. So, I was quite upset. As being a government, they are a very good paymaster and its really good to have their name in your list of projects....anytime.

And so it happens, after a chit chat with person in charge last week....there seems to be a way we can get it done. Legally, and following the procedures of course. Hopefully, we can get it done ASAP.

As I believe, having 1 project in the bag is better than having 10 projects in the waiting list.

mmm....life has changed for me completely now......

I'm back....

HI GUYS!!!!!...

I'm back from such a long hiatus....

what happened you ask? Well a lot of things happened, on my career and personal life front.

Let the personal be personal for now...will reveal once everything is clearer....

But I really want to share with you guys about my career front...

I HAVE QUIT MY JOB!!!!....
Yup...you read it right...I have quit my job. My last day with me previous company was on the 30th Nov....been idle since then. Anyway, the previous company is closing down.

Now what?
Well, I have started my own IT solutions company in Singapore. Of course not doing it alone, not yet at least. I have started it with a partner. Not only that, I have spoken my ex-boss to transfer all her clients to my new business. And she gladly okayed the idea. She is the most wonderful boss anyone can ask for.....seriously....

With all the clients transferred to my own company now, we have already have a good basis to work on.

We have also rented an office space to operate, with my boss 'sponsoring' some of the furnitures too....(told you she is the greatest!)....

So, from 1st Jan 2007, I'm officially under my own company's payroll. I'm taking a break now just to re-charge myself before going full swing with my new venture.

YES! Finally I can call myself an entreprenuer.

So guys, please pray for my business to do well and for me to succeed this endeavour.

All the preparations for the business, like sourcing the office, getting the paper works done, opening bank accounts, office setup, and other works have kept me busy all this while.

But, everything is in place now. NO WAY I'M THINKING OF BACKING OFF! The only option I have now is TO MAKE IT HAPPEN! I'm very sure I can with extra hard work....

Wish me luck guys!!!!!
