The Challenges

There are some reservations for me to jump into this entrepreneurship journey again, both internal and external factors

These are questions that come into my mind

  • I am in the good life now, why should I trouble myself to take this entrepreneurship path again ?
  • F&B is time consuming and the taste need to be the same all the time, should I rather spend time for other things ?
  • I am very new into this venture, what if I can't deliver as what people expect ?
  • What if my products won't be accepted by the market and I will feel down and hurt my self esteem?
  • What if my products are successful and the greed take over me ?
  • What if this business distract me from God by relying more on my own understanding and strength instead of Him ?
  • My hubby is not an entrepreneur person and in the my previous adventure, I was doing everything alone and he looked down on me to make small money with so much efforts, thus I had this phobia that he won't support me instead pulling me down saying that I won't make much money compare with what I do by working with other people
  • How to maintain the business and create the products consistently and get the regular customer as I saw many have received positive feedback however along the way, they are dying too ?
  • What will be the calculation, cost, revenue and profit as I mixed it up last time in my previous adventure and kinda confusing in the end ?
  • Do I need to message each of my friend persuading them to try my product or should I wait they contact me ?
  • Would they be annoyed if I ask them to support me ? What will they think about me ?

These are some of my anxiety, questions of uncertainty to venture. However, again this what makes the life more interesting as you gonna step into something that you don't know.

The only way way to know is by taking the first step, pause - learn - reflect and move another step again.

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 ...

Reflection

It's been such a long time that I sit down, press a pause button and reflect back what has happened in my life, what things I should be grateful, what are the lesson learnt and what I should improve Things have gone so fast in my life and it's like unending cycle. It's been almost 2 months since I helmed the new project in the company I am working and it took half of my life. I felt like I had a new baby but not "literally baby", it's more responsibility as many lives are on stakes. I had no experience, no mentor and coach, no team per say, only one person who's not hundred percent fully committed in this project and on top of that, the company threw me in the deep sea that  I need to swim and survive. It reminded me back when I started my motherhood journey. With no knowledge, no experience, no mentor, no helpers and little money, we need to nurture the living baby and finally we survived. The first one was always the harder, but after the second and thir...

Dreams come true - Cappadocia (day 6)

It's time for another dream destination - Cappadocia. After arriving at Athens International Airport, we miscalculated the transit time. We only gave 1.5 hours in between without realising that we needed to change the airline and domestic route so we rushed out and checked in 25 minutes before the flight departed. Thanks God, we were still allowed for checking in. After settling in Turkish airlines, we were provided with warm baguette and drinks which could calm ourselves and our seat was next to emergency door so we got leg room. We arrived at Cappadocia airport which was very small and reminded me on my hometown's airport in the old days. Then we were picked up by airport transfer to our cave hotel - Panoramic cave hotel. The journey to the hotel was amazing, we saw many natural chimneys that we never saw before. Arriving in the hotel, we checked in to our pigeon nest room which was chimney suite and never stop took pictures of the room and the scenery surrounding. In the lat...
