Assalamualaikum, hello my
blogworld! :)
I
hope it is not too late to say, have a great new year of 2014, may the odd be
in your favour, my lovely friends. As usual, as we started a brand new year,
most of us will have our own resolution, aren’t we? But then, after reflecting
to my 2013 resolution list, which many of then did not came true, so I have
decided to have my 2014 dream list. Not as much as before, right now I really
want to focus on few things that are really important for me.
Personally,
I have set few dreams that need to be achieved by the end of 2014. It will be
categorized into few things, my personal character, my career, my relationship
with WDS, my relationship with God and my own passive income source. Want to
know what are my dreams? Let me share it with you. :)
My Personal Character
Alhamdulillah,
2013 had been great in terms of self actualization. I have learned a lot about
life, about compromising, about understanding, giving without expecting and many
other positive improvements on my personal character. But I realize, there are many other aspects
need to be improved inside me. For this year, I want to work on my sensitive
side.
For
those who might know me, I want to apologize for being a super sensitive
creature upon unimportant things. One thing for sure, maturity does not define
by age. But then, maturity should grow as how we’re getting older, isn’t it? So,
I hope in 2014 onwards, I could improve more on this matter. If I heard any
critics on me, I should listen carefully, filter whether it is good or not for
my own development and then decide whether to listen or not. I hope I will no
longer being a little kid who will easily get sulked after listen to things like this.
Apart
from that, I want to improve myself on being a thankful human being in this
earth. Remember that we will always look to our neighbor’s greener grasses?
There are two different impacts on this issue. On the negative side, we will
always think that how lucky they are for having such a good life, as how they
showing it off, be it in social network or directly in front of our eyes. But
then, we forgot that there is also another point of view, which is the positive
one. That is the one thing that always being forgotten by us. We should realize
that everyone in this earth are given their own ways, which obviously different
with others. So, why bothers? Ours are also as good as others, the most
important thing is, be a grateful person and we will enjoy our life to the
fullest. I hope I can improve on this soon. ;)
My Career
Previously,
I am not the kind of woman who are chasing upon a career. For me, I signed in
into the work I am doing now is for the sake of getting money to survive.
That’s all. But then, time flies and people change. So do I. Working for more
than a year, made me realize that I should have a goal on what I am doing right
now. Yes, absolutely on my career as Lab Technician in no 1 oilfield services
company in the world.
This
year, I will attend my second school, again, in Kuala Lumpur (I hope they will
move to Abu Dhabi soon. Haha ). After that, I want to focus on achieving my
Grade 09, another grade, another salary to be received at the end of the month,
right? :D
Apart
from that, I want to find any possible opportunity for me to move to another
department, for example QHSE department. I realize that I cannot grow as big as
I wanted if I stay in the lab. I only learn few things about cementing, doing
routine that absolutely boring and lack of self development in the end. If I
need to stay at the lab, maybe it is just because of money. But for self
development, I can see myself going nowhere. Furthermore, I hate standing in a
comfort zone. So, I hope 2014 will let open another new door for me in terms of
career development. :)
My Relationship with WDS
2013
was an amazing year. I finally met someone who willingly to accept me as who I
am, grow with me through good and bad and marry me. Alhamdulillah! We are about
to bring this relationship to another level. Yes, we are getting married! :D
For
those of you who ever read my previous post, my plan was 2015, around February.
But then, after discussions and both of our parents’ approval, InsyaAllah, our
day will be in December 2014. Hopefully, our way to a beautiful place yet
challenging place, a marriage will be as smooth as silk. Even if there will be
obstacle and challenges, I hope both of us will face it maturely.
So,
please pray for our beautiful journey, this December 2014. Aamiin ;)
My Relationship with God
The
longer we live; death call is getting near to. That’s my personal statement.
Yes, we never know when will be our time to leave this lovely yet horror life. So,
the big question comes out. Are we ready to face the hereafter? There will be
different time phase needs to be faced. Time in the grave, time during the
judgment day and time for us to be in hell or jannah. Everyone hope that we
will be in jannah. But are preparing ourselves for it?
I
hope in this 2014 I can do more good to life. I want to earn as much preparation for akhirat I could. I want to
maximize my moments in this earth. Do it by my own willingness, not by forced. Ikhlas,
the key of ibadah. InsyaAllah, I hope I can do more good things and avoid doing
thing He prohibit to.
My Own Passive Income
Finally,
my work schedule has become clear enough so that I could spend more time for
myself. I arrange more things to be done during my free time, and now I am
starting my business (once again, after few trial and error before). I am
having a new online boutique, @maganda_ID, that is available on Twitter and
Instagram. This boutique is specialized on handmade and one and only product
for each pattern and design for dresses, skirts, shawls and more to come. This
one is a serious matter. I want to build my own brand, where people will call
it as “Magandanya Malisa”.
Right
now we’re still on the process of doing photoshoot for the product. Of course,
with the help of my dearest Bapak Negara and his DSLR camera. Hopefully this
one will become a big brand, special from Kalimantan, Indonesia. ;)
-MS-
wish you all the best for 2014 :)
