Declutter !

As I've been approaching the last miles of my career, I feel that there are many opportunities out there that looks lucrative. However, I am not sure which ones are really meant for me as I only can see the top of the iceberg.

Currently, I am taking sustainability course with BCG Rise as I want to dive deeper into this. It's not because of the trend, but more on personal advocate to create social impact to the people and environment.

Meanwhile these are some opportunities that I could see :

1. Work for people

- Joining competitor whom I respect the founder from his own story, insights and sharing that inspiring me

Pros : I can adapt quickly as I know the product roughly, tap into my networks and have a chance to grow their business faster as I could see that their products are simple, less complicated and suited to the market

Cons : I can't join directly as I have non competition clause for 3 months and it's more on the ethical point of view that the earliest I can join will be end of Q1 and update my LinkedIn after Q2.

- Joining marketplace apps whom I know the founder and it seems that he needs help to grow at Indo market

Pros : Early start up, things can be tweaked and pivoted according to market needs and tap into my network and knowledge, I may be able to help the business grow faster 

Cons : As it's an early start up, I am not sure if they have budget to offer me as the current company pays

2. Venture into new business (sustainability and circular economy related)

- Set up company branch/holding from existing Indonesia partner's entity (Reverse Vending Machine or 2nd hand furniture business)

Pros : Exciting journey, something that I always want to do, exponential personal growth and learning curve as I will learn a lot during the journey

Cons : The stake is high, need to have cofounder who is more experienced and the same value and mission, a lot of planning and preparation that will take my time and energy

I really want to go into stage 2 as that's my dream to have something on my own that I can contribute fully all my knowledge, experiences, network to make a social impact.

The question is am I ready ? or shall I work for early start up first to see how it goes before jumping into the ocean and start swimming there ?

Let see how the things unveiled.

As for me and my house will serve you Lord

Finally, I’ve joined the boys in serving at the Eucharist. It’s not my time, but His time. Two of the communion ministers were unable to serve on Sunday morning and requested to move to the Saturday sunset Mass. This left the group leader looking for replacements — and he thought of me, knowing that my hubby has been serving at Mass for 10 years. I said “yes” to the invitation, and so began my journey: the commissioning Mass on 3rd August, a Day of Recollection on 9th August, and my very first duty on 10th August. It is such a privilege to offer Jesus, in the Body of Christ, to His sheep. As I looked into the eyes of each parishioner receiving the Body of Christ, I saw so many different expressions. My prayer is that this gift of the Body of Christ will strengthen them in their journey, whatever season of life they are in.

What to do when you don't know what to do

I’ve been absent from writing the blog for quite a while, as I felt there wasn’t any story worth sharing. But today, I want to share something that happened in August. For some time, I had been waiting and praying, asking God to show me whether I should persevere with this winter rental business. I often felt that all my efforts were in vain, and I had reached the end of my wits, unsure of what else to do. In my prayer, I asked God specifically for a sign: if there was even just one try-on appointment in August, it would mean that He still blesses this business and that it remains aligned with His plan. That very afternoon, I suddenly received a WhatsApp message from a man who wanted to arrange a try-on session for the next day. I replied quickly, asking for details — and to my surprise, he said 10 adults were traveling together! I immediately told my husband, though I also explained that we didn’t have enough stock for such a large group. My husband encouraged me to call and explain t...
