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.

Jubilee Year - Year of Hope (2025)

Year of Hope: A Personal Reflection on 2025 The year 2025 has been declared a Jubilee Year, a  Year of Hope  by the Pope—a time for peace, joy, and prosperity. For many, entering a new year brings feelings of happiness and optimism. However, I find myself on a different path, starting the year with anxiety and uncertainty rather than joy and hope. For me, 2025 is a year of the unknown. It marks the first time in four years that I will not hold the title of a working mom. Transitioning from this identity feels daunting and unfamiliar. It is also the year I plan to embark on a new venture: starting a winter rental business. This endeavor excites me but is fraught with challenges. There are countless pieces of the puzzle yet to be solved, and I pray for wisdom and the support of "ordinary angels" to guide me through. This is also a pivotal year for our family. Two of our children will face major exams. While I know the journey matters more than the results, I hope they develop s...

A Burger Date

It feels like it's been ages to have a date night with hubby, thus before my parents going back to Indo we decided to have a couple date over burger as I have been craving with Hans I'm Gluck burger. We went there, enjoying the burger and companion of each other and talking about anything, something that we are used to have but no longer anymore after I took a new role in the company. Then, I accompanied him to shop at H&M before heading back home. It's one of the best burgers I ever had since I am in fasting the whole day for a week. The perk of fasting is I could appreciate the food and enjoy it.

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 ...
