4.3.09

BIZ: I realized I’m putting a lot of love into my business. The love is pouring out into my proposal.

SELF: I’m a drama queen

ENTREPRENUERSHIP: Until u have done your own P&L and sales projections, you won’t feel how a business owner feels.

5.3.09

BIZ: 1st round of draft, advisory meeting with lovely Ms Rozie who speaks perfect English. Then while Im having my gimme my coffee now at the incubator’s canteen, even the canteen owner tries to give me tips on Pre-seed. I also met the manager from Sun Microsystem- the company behind the Java provider or something (I know Java is so not related to the coffee in front of me)

Since I hv a bit of time to kill between my next appointment, I went over to meet my friend cum website solutions provider cum consultant- Pin. Who also shares his bits of advice with me.

One day, 3 different advices & tips on my proposal and bizness idea. Time to sit down and think.

6.3.09 FRIDAY 10.03AM

BIZ: My two focus this weekend. Yes, I will be working over the weekend.

1. To tighten up the whole proposal, which means I will drill even deeper, God knows the depth, to the bizness idea, the USP, the ESP, mechanics, costs, run a survey to gauge actual market wants (good for the proposal too) and the marketing plan, PLUS a planner to schedule everything together as my brain files are getting crowded. (Maybe not the marketing plan at this point of time if I can’t make it, that’s another story all together)

2. Connect with good people I met during Master Your Mind seminar last 2 weeks (Gosh, how time flies) for friendship and networking purposes.

7.3.09

LIFE: What a lazy bugger. Alarm buzz off at 9am, and with no serious intention and schedule, the mind tells self, sleep lar. Woke up 1 hour 50 minutes later.

BIZ: 11.32am, checked mails. Cute one from Pin of A4friends.com. Gotta start revising my proposal soon if I want my mission to be accomplished.

9.3.09 12.05am

BIZ: Can’t believe the Mechanic profile side of me came up. I’m crunching numbers on Excel like I never done before! Doing 2 year sales projection, customer acquisition projection, conversion, cost of sales. So detailed, so not creator!

1.25am

BIZ: Farkness! I finally got it done!!!!!!! Rewarding myself with a fat supper AND BEER!

9.3.09 Monday 3.40pm

Life: Public holiday, though I’m semi working. Can’t help it, and I don’t mind actually. I mean, i had a long brunch with darling at kopitiam, eating, drinking coffee, and reading newspaper. Exactly what pensioners are doing! No high end designer coffee for us, and cold, stuffy cafes. We like al fresco kopitiam, must be clean of course, and that makes a darn good cup of local coffee!

Biz: Today, mission numero uno is to pull everything together on my Excel schedule planner. I downloaded it yesterday fm Microsoft Office online. That’s the reward of paying money for genuine software.

11 .3.09 9.49am Wed

Life: I should so go and get myself a new hair stylist. My love in my current one has waned. After a year of able to give me stylo mylo hairstyle, she landed herself in hot soup when I wanna grow my short hair to a longer than short bob. I get bored with my hairstyle easily la.

Is it a Malaysian hair stylist curse that one have to endure months of dodgy hairstyle while growing it out??? I certainly don’t think so. Then, you please explain why I look like a LEGO head now?!!!!!!

Biz: I’m so can’t wait to get this proposal over and done with! And I can get on with getting my bizness started!!
