4 more months and i'm done.
It's time to move on when there are no more passion left.
I used to be proud of uniform I don. I still do but it no longer feels the same as before.
You realised that the ideals and goals are no longer worth going after.
Afterall, one person's strength will not be enough to change the whole system.
Ability and performance are no longer the only elements to move forward.
Or shall I say, it has never been that way.
Bosses are important. They decide your career pathway.
But how many cherish the talents they have and nurture them.
Most care only about their positions, who do truly cares for those under them?
An inspiring commander inspires people, a commander who treats his men with his heart wins respect.

More often than not, we found ourselves lost in the transition of time.
Before we realize it, 28 year have gone by.
It seems that looking for that modus operandi in life was never that simple.
Changes has always been inevitable, whether for good or bad.
But life reaches a certain period when enough is enough.
No matter how much passion you have, there are just no more reasons to stay on.
5 more months and somehow it seems forever.
You have been kind to me but seriously no way I can work for you.
Nevertheless, I thanked you for pushing me out so I could finally think for myself.
Thank you for showing me your shrewd, hypocrite side.
Life was never going to be easy, and you made it harder with your unreasonable.
Hopefully, one day, I would walk up to you, shake your hand and thank you from the bottom of my heart.

三月

三月了。。
時間仿拂過得好快,但又感覺過得很慢。
快得有點讓人擔心。
擔心自己心裡還沒準備好,擔心未來的去向。
有好多想法卻不知從哪開始,從何著手。
說不怕是騙人的,說計畫好了也是騙人的。
時間一步一步的逼近,感覺離夢想好像越來越近。
事實上還有一段距離。
我真的準備好了嗎?
欲速則不達,我不渴望第一次就能成功。
所以說,以平常心來規畫這一切。
我一直認為機會是給有準備的人。
細心,周祥的計畫加上時機,我相信我做得到。

有時覺得我太為人著想,老是被利用。
真想果斷地拒絕每個要求。
真得很不明白,排好的行程總是會被搞砸。
好悶啊~
作好人是沒用的,有多少會記得。
算了。。不答應也答應了。
下次一定要想清楚先!!

How fast things took a turn in a year.
A change in career path, a change in lifestyle, a total life makeover.
It could have been a spur of moment but I am glad I made the move.
I just don't see myself working for this kind of management.
Hypocritical and manipulative contributes to the worst breed of boss you would ever had.
Sometimes you wonder how people like him survive.
At this level of management, what is exactly in his mind?
Does he really think the world is at his feet?
One day you will wake up and realise that everyone had left.
Maybe then, that will make you to self-reflect.
Only treating people with respect and sincerity will win you their hearts.

ORD time

The day when you have doubts in the capabilities and the decisions of the management becomes the trigger and the motivation to leave the organisation.
It seems to be a sign, pointing towards the 'exit' door.
However, I'm thankful as it helps me to look back in my life and ponder what exactly do i want my life to be and how i should live it.
Enough of those fake and seemingly encouraging words. Those are nothing from your heart.
I do understand the plans of nurturing me to become one of your recallable slaves.
Just too bad that I am not your 'Yes Sir' type.
Get ready for this bomb shell, you never see it coming from me.

Finally here

It's official 2011!!
The year began with a long weekend and 3 consecutive days of raining.
If that were to meant anything at all.
Despite the downpours, 2011 is a year to look forward to.
A year with big changes and great dreams, at least for me.
I guess I am going to start the year with a bang by saying goodbye to the green.
It was a good 7 years but no qualms about leaving. Just a matter of July or August.
Coming next will be of course, the franchise exhibition in Taiwan.
Simply cannot contain the sense of excitement in me.
I never expect to hit it off on the start but I want to give it a try.
Doing something I always wanted and working for myself.
This is a big step in life and I'm glad I'm going to do it.
It's a risk worth taking, especially in my current situation or no burdens.
I hope for the best and plan for the worse.
There is no turning back now.
My only wish, time could just move a little faster...

Welcoming year 2011?

Year 2010 is coming to an end.
Alarming to realise how fast time flies past.
The day of reckoning approached.
Will year 2011 be any different?
I set my sight on leaving but i want to leave with my head held high.
Being in green for the next 20,30 years is just unthinkable.
Life is short and I ain't gonna waste my life in there, working my ass out yet nobody care.
What can they give in return?
Or do they actually appreciate what you have done for the organisation?
This will be a undeniable fact, no one is indispensible.
The only comfort you get is the green you receive every month.
How to work under such leadership?
It may be a moment of rashness.
However, thanks to this rashness, it made me found what i want in my life.
Not a mediocre soldier, nor a punching bag.

The time is near and I can't wait for it...

Looking ahead

As year 2010 comes to the end, a new beginning seems to be beckoning.
I'm both excited and worried about what 2011 will bring.
Although the decision has been made, but no real actions had been done.
No doubt there are many plans in mind, choosing one is not easy.
A noob in business does not help much.
There are so much things to find out, to be planned.
Starting a business is seriously no easy feat, especially when you are alone.
However, that will not stop me.
Building my own empire has always been my dream and it is unbelievable that i am coming so close to realising.
For once, i hope time could move slightly faster.
I like what i am doing now and i felt a great job satisfaction when completing a case.
But this won't take me far, not with this management.
Even if it does, i simply don't see myself in uniform for the rest of my life.

Everything in my life seems to start out slow.
Whether my life, career, anything under the sun. I am a slow starter.
But i always believe in one thing, it does not matter when you start but how you end.
Regardless of what happens in the future, i will not regret for the decision i make.
Frankly speaking, i am looking forward to that day when i leave the SAF head held high.
I may feel reluctant to leave my current team as we had build such a bond despite my short time there.
I had learn a lot, be it in work or life. The only way to bring everybody together is to be transparent to each other. I hope one day, the management could understand.

Decision

It seems that i had made a decision.
Am i so confident to leave to seek for a different life?
How much can i afford to lose?
What are you going to do?

So many people had asked me when they learnt about my decision.
But yet, i could not answer any of them confidently.
Yes, i want to leave.
But what are i going to do?
Striking out on my own had been my goal for the past 2 years.
Now is the time, i suppose.
2 more years and i am going to turn 30.
Of course 30 for a man is still young.
However, if i can start out early, why not.
I seriously had enough of civil service and it's management.
Does anyone ever recognize you for what you work or how much you work?
So what if you are recognized? You don't promote faster and you won't get a pay raise.
That is the reality of government servvice.
Only the best bootlickers survive in.

As much as i understand how much the organization dotes on us, one significant thing does not change - the management.
Unfortunately to say, there is a limit on how far you can go.
Partly the reason is also that i want to experience more of life and not closing the doors to the outside world.
As long you don't step out of the door, you will not know how the world looks like.
It is time for me to take that big leap.
I would take that chance, whether fail or success.
At least i tried and have no regrets..that is the most important in life.
