What’s Next?

I have just three months left, and I’m facing a million-dollar question: Should I look for a new job or start my own business?

Job Search vs. Starting a Business

  1. Looking for a New Job: Given the current situation, finding a new job seems like the more stable option to supplement our household income.

    • Industry Considerations: The trending fields of AI, sustainability, and cybersecurity are intriguing, but they’re relatively unfamiliar to me. My background is primarily in sales and marketing within the Fintech (lending) industry, specifically focused on the Indonesian market. This specialization feels quite narrow.
    • Next Steps: I could either deepen my expertise in Fintech and investment through relevant courses and certifications or explore new certificates related to AI, sustainability, or cybersecurity, even though I lack direct experience in these areas. However, pursuing Fintech and investment seems more feasible for now.
  2. Starting a Business: If job hunting doesn’t pan out, I may need to consider launching a simple business.

    • Business Ideas: Options like dropshipping or trading require minimal capital and investment.
    • Learning Needs: I’ll need to educate myself on SEO, social media marketing, and identifying market needs to ensure the business is viable.

Timeline and Action Plan

To stay on track, I need to set a timeline. If my job search doesn’t yield results within a month or so, I’ll pivot to exploring business opportunities. This way, I can ensure I’m making progress no matter which path I take.

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...
