Review of the Month March 17th, 2011

Looking back over the past month its been great.

Have been able to extend my learning at work while picking back up the business/entrepreneurship activities and focus.

Joined the Rotaract club – refreshing set of community focus thinkers and doers.
On the other hand held some strategy meetings for business club. Definitely getting to apply more XL and presentations skills. Its paying off! Thanks Roger and OOI team!

About people and friends, finding and spending more time with the right people has helped expand energy.

On track with saving. With the focus for investment not offset or delay spending. Although both can support the investment saving when planned and done correctly.

Fitness… missing out due to work! Car parking would enable after work trips to gym again. And also for extra circular community commitments =(

Important realisation. Caught myself red-handed procastinating, thought great self awareness.
Now deciding what is my actual aspirations and goals now and into the future?

Also realised after some years of exploration, i do really enjoy my line of vocation and the industries.
Now how to leverage further such opportunites?
