4th Business Trip for this year (4 - 9 March 2024) - Happy International Women's Day


This is one of the most hectic trips which I had high stress level as we were preparing our second own event celebrating International Women's Day.
The challenges are the company hands off so I prepared this alone with one and my only one team and representative from other organization, WeConnect International.



We initiated this event end of February and just less than 1.5 months we made it happen.
My company challenged me if I didn't get any sponsorship, just aborted the plan.
I almost gave up but with encouragement from the counter part, we did the best.

There are many adjustment from the ideation until execution and there are many hiccups that I need to do damage control and staying late and slept after midnight.
I left my family and kids behind even though they were sick at home.

I cried every night and told God that I couldn't do it anymore if You don't help me. Everything is not under my control.












Thanks God the event went well, the participants were so happy and very inspired by the speakers we invited.
As I thought I can pat myself and proud to myself, one of colleagues who did nothing stole the limelight, announced to the whole world that it's her project and as if she's the one initiated and leading it.
It really disgusted and turned me off. I told myself, she already lost my respect.

If she announced it under company's account, then I am fine but she announced it under her own LinkedIn with her pictures and only few guests that was invited by her and still said thank you to the sponsors and speakers even though she never knew these guys.

I was so pissed off with her attitude and behaviour.

I tried to let go and told myself, it's alright. She may claim all the glory but people will know the truth.

Anyway, I was so grateful that everything was went well and when I came back home, the kids and hubby missed me so much. They told a lot of stories and behave so well.

Nothing is more important than my family !

When ChatGPT can be your counsellor

When I want to refine my text in the previous post , I accidentally typing the whole things in the ChatGPT and this is the reply that I get  Your reflection on this “desert” period is deeply insightful. It’s clear you’re navigating significant internal struggles, and recognizing these temptations is a powerful step toward healing and growth. The Lust of the Flesh : Your experience with joblessness and the challenge of trusting in God’s timing is relatable. It’s tough to feel like you’re not fulfilling your potential, but your acknowledgment of God’s grace as a source of strength is vital. Remember that this time is not wasted; it’s a period for personal and spiritual growth. The Lust of the Eyes : Envy can be a heavy burden, especially when it feels like others are thriving. Your internal dialogue—questioning the value of public shame and your perceptions of the situation—demonstrates a mature self-awareness. It’s okay to feel what you feel, but recognizing it allows you to choose ...

Maintaining Marriage Fidelity

This article is from Focus Family and I thought it's good as self reminder for both of us so we don't take for granted of each other and commit to maintain marriage fidelity for the rest of our lives. Nobody wakes up one day and suddenly decides to begin an extramarital affair. Infidelity begins in the heart and mind. By the time a person physically commits adultery, he or she has been indulging for quite some time in progressively more intense mental and   emotional affairs . Likewise, marital fidelity begins long before marriage. It begins as a promise we make to ourselves to be a person of faithful character before marriage ever enters the picture. It is a promise we make to our future spouse when we get engaged, and it is a vow we make to our spouse when we get married. Marital fidelity is a daily commitment to seek the best for your spouse and family. Strengthening Marital Fidelity Marital fidelity is strengthened when you affirm your spouse, listen to your spouse, and se...
