Motivation ~ Ambition


I found that almost every semester, especially in business classes, i will have chance to meet knowledgeble yet interesting lecturers who willing to share their own experience, own life, as well as life of people around them as example.


I can see alot through their eye, they read books, i read them. They experience stuff, i gain experience from them. I prefer this kind of opportunity and enjoy the process of learning in class, rather than just follow everything from the notes and text book.


I like the way they share about many funny yet ridiculous behaviour of multinational leading company's CEO life who is their friend, how their another friend, an Germany multimillionaire fight with his wife just to eat "nasi lemak" (due to cholestrol problem), and how their executive friends concern everyth=ime they use airline services... it's not the price, not the speed, but the MENU. that's a big issue for them since they need to be on plane for atleast 1o+ hours for business trip. I'm very interesting or exactly envy them for those unusual experience (it's heard unusual for me who haven't reach that level of living).


I can't deny that all those stories did motivate me to study hard to reach that kind of life someday... but at the same time, i realize that it also make me to become an ambitious person which definitely impact to my perception toward value in my life.


I keep image one day will have that kind of living and that feeling bacome stronger everyday. Sort of creepy actually. I also surprise to know new things like if you graduated from harvard university, England, you don't need to send your resume to find a job... companies will send their resume and achievement to you. And i order to draduate from that school, you need to travel to certain contry, just to complete an assignment. Even to attend a two hours class, people (consist of CEO, senior manager, top management, and executive or even ministers from countries all over the world) are flyinf from all over the world and they will fly back at the same day on spot, right after the class, to continue their own work (business). I can't imagine there are such a riiculous things before...


Some more, what open my eyes during a forum I attend in 4 star hotel in Penang that whom participant involve 1000 people from all over Malaysia, Singapore, and Brunei Darussalam is i meet a very succesful woman, she is a Datuk actually, who purposely arrabge her time to mwwt us to give us some speech amongs her pack scadulle. Before she came to meet us, she just came back from Beijing, China, a day before that, she went for Aceh, Indonesia, ... the day before, she was in Korea to attend a conference where the day before , she also came back from Philipine. I couldn't control myself from admiring this kind of succesful woman. She is a mother, elegant, independent, has her own career and achievement, and internationally well recognized. I will be like her one day.. I PROMISE!
