Finally, sweet win....

Today, was a crazy day.

Went all the way to Kajang, to see a customer. Traffic, rain, mud, sweat and got scolded by customer for some twisted service issue.

This has been one of my major pipelines to win, and after all persuasion for 1 1/2 hours, sit in with 4 different decision maker, and volunteered to take their shipments back to service centre, they finally said, " We would actually love to work with you, if you can prolong our pickup time." And hey, that's what I was working on for the past whole month! And without telling them, I have already gotten the green light to start the project! Sweet win, well, not yet, but it feels really good to win some business!

I guess that's the kick of doing sales, aside from all the crazy demands and endless sales review......its nerve wrecking, day by day. But when you nail a business, you feel like you're on top of the world!

Back home now, just after shower, and a con-call, and replying some emails. All done, but yet to have a dinner. I just hope my gastric problems doesn't come back to haunt me. I hate that feeling.

My Donkey

Remember the annoying, big mouthed yet good in nature Donkey in Shrek and Shrek 2? Can you remember any friends that resembles the Donkey? And seriously, I DO NOT MEAN PHYSICALLY!!! Recently, I've come to realized that there are lots of " Donkeys " in my life. Don't feel offended if I'm referring anyone as a donkey, coz do put in mind that at the same time, I'm an Ogre too. Yep, it's funny how some friends tend to annoyed us so much that we would like to tell them to shut their mouth sometimes! They will keep on going just to keep us annoyed even you've give out all the possible signals and hints that you're really not in the mood to join in their play. But their patience is somewhat last for eternity. They'll follow you around just to keep you in their watching distance. Although some may not resembled the loud Donkey in Shrek, but they do have other ways to annoy you. I have this particular friend who were so choosy and annoying, and somet...

Whirlwind

It has been a whirlwind like for the past month. Had a depresive episode and anxiety attack last month, and still recovering from it. This is not the first time in depression, but it scares me alot compare to the last one some 12 years ago. I find myself gasping for air, reaching out for help, so that i can stay afloat in the midst of darkness and drowining. I remembered Kel alot during the past month or so.. the mental image of him lifeless, reminds me again and again, that I need to hang on in there, and put in effort to be alive. I am thankful to God in many ways, to give me the courage to walk out from this unscathed. Rather, I was given the chance to learn who I am as a person. I was exposed to my own shortcomings even when I refuse to see it, I was challenged to 'let go' to things and emotional burden that I have been carrying all this while. I spoke to more people in the past month then I ever spoke to in the year before. I knew I was desperate, and I needed to see and...

Anger Management

M : Aunty Sharon, I am angry now.. Me : Why? What happened? M : Daddy wanted to share my biscuits, I don't want to. Me : What should we do when we are angry? M :....... Me : Let's breath, and count. M : Ok Aunty Sharon.. Me : Breath, 1.... Breath... M : 2... Breath, 3..... Breath 4....(chuckle) Me : Are you ok now? Are you still angry? M : No, its funny! (Burst out laughing) 13 days in to Movement Control Order, I have spent a lot of time with Matia for the past 13 days. This little boy is turning 5 this year, struggled with some TV addiction, but he did so well today. From spending time playing on his own, painting, trying to read (even when he complains it is difficult), eating lunch by his own without leaving the table, taking in the vegetables which he usually manage to pick out with his tongue, and yes... anger management. We found that he was talking spitefully to both his parents on every small rejection...
