This is a scheduled post. We will be making preparation to head to the airport with both mixed emotions of sadness and excitement on living in a new country. Who knows what this will lead us to next? This version of the song by Canadian Chantal Kreviazuk was on the Armageddon movie soundtrack. I grew […]
I like business autobiographical books and stories about how businesses were founded, grow, thrive and became what they are today. I picked up this book from the library after several months of hiatus of reading due to my Oxford Strategy course. I stumbled upon the book on the shelves and I was last week old […]
I naturally think that I am not good at anything. I am not good at competitive sports, not good at games and not good at negotiation. However, I tend to remind myself about taking a chance each time.
