Self Doubt - Peace


Self doubt is the most undesirable circumstances that I feel it's not easy to grasp.
Drifting here and there without any certainty and clarity.
Confused between the truth and manipulation.
Doubting who I am and what I am doing.
Feeling like I'm not who I am.

It's all started few months back when I didn't feel comfortable during our regular business meeting about goal and target.
There's nothing wrong with having goal and target, but I just feel unnecessary pressure upon me.
When I joined this networking business, my goal is actually purely sharing what I use, the benefits I use and not exactly for money.
However when our leader starts to set the goal as well as individual goal, I feel like sales people in the company with monthly target.
I rarely have a joy in doing it other than pressure.

I started doubting myself, questioning what I am doing and who I really am.

Then it's flashed back last year when I was contemplating three options between building my own company, working for people or joining networking marketing.
And only the last option was opened at that time, I took the step with a blessing of my hubby.
I eagerly learned and from that I found my passion and purpose in life.
I enjoyed what I am doing, sharing about the truth of healthy life style even without getting paid.

People see me as health evangelist advocating exercise, healthy food, rest and being positive.
They may not associate me with supplements and networking marketing which I am glad.

However, recently with different strategy in the group, I feel that I am no longer I am to be.
I feel that I just followed the crowds even though I feel that it's not me.
The more I walk, the more I drag myself.


Then, I told my hubby  - my best friend about what I felt and I was very grateful that he understood and his advise was very simple.
If you didn't find peace, it may not be right or it may not be you even though you 1001 reasons to convince yourself.
Everyone has different vision, maybe you can't see that you are in this networking business if God never plants it to you.
Just be yourself, be truthful to yourself, and make peace within.

Happy Valentine's Day 2023

This year's valentine is special. It's not just any celebration but it's a celebration of victory and marks the beginning of "new adventure". By God's grace and mercy, we reconciled during ME retreat last weekend. We were able to go back to where we were before the incident. I am full of love and able to share everything to hubby again. He becomes my best friend again, and it seems that love conquers all. And another challenge is now about "time". This first quarter is very busy period for me, traveling back and forth to Jakarta for business. Leaving my hubby and the kids behind is not a nice feeling eventhough there's a good thing on the other side of the coin as we are not taking each other for granted. As my gift of love, I want to give my precious time whenever I am available in Singapore to my hubby and the kids, thus in this valentine's day, I curated love coupons that he can redeem. Hopefully, this is something that can help us to comm

New Year Eve 2022

I am planning to hibernate during New Year Eve, sit down and doing some reflections and thinking about New Year resolutions, alas things may not happen according to my plan. I am very tired physically from the Malaysia trip. What I really want to do just sleep in and do nothing but what make me tired mentally is we fight over trivial matters. It started well this morning, we brought the kids out to West Coast for breakfast and strolled in the park. Hubby asked me what will be the plan for today as he wanted to give some year end speeches to the kids. I told him, I had no plan at all as I was very tired. I just wanted to stay at home and rest. He was quiet but I didn't notice it as I was quiet too to reflect what I have done this year and what will be my new year resolutions. When we went home everything was normal, I asked our helper to clean our car and did grocery for next week meals. While waiting the car wash done, I wrote this blog about our Malaysia trip. After she's done

Dreams come true - Cappadocia (day 7)

This is the highlight of Cappadocia which is hot air balloon ride. As it depends a lot on the weather, we were lucky that we could fly to watch sunrise. We were picked up around 5.30am in the morning to Urgup area and arrived 20 mins later. They provided us with light breakfast while they lit up the balloon.  We started riding it around 6.20am and it's so breathtaking to see the Goreme area and hundreds of balloon joining us. The sunrise is around 7am and by 7.30am we already landed safely.  We had champagne celebration and received certificate too and returned back to our hotel for breakfast. Around 10am, we were picked up for Green Valley tour. Stopped by at Goreme Panorama and Pigeon valley for photo spots. After that, we went to Underground city where Anatolian people lived underground to survive from natural disaster and dangers. It's amazing how they build the houses and lived there for a long period of time. Then, we continued our tour to Selime Monastery and Cathedral w
