What I have learnt in 2008…

There are so many things that i have gained through this year and i feel very blessed to have the chance to acquire those. Just to list a few things:-

  1. Tips and Tricks about Business – I accepted Bal and Iznan’s offer to join ArdentEdu last December and since then, i have learnt so much about business. Each day is like a training day for me. Now i know that running own business ain’t an easy thing. It requires high level of determination and self-driven attitude. I’m hoping that 2009 will be many many more success to me and ArdentEdu.
  2. Graphic Designing skills – Earlier this year, i asked myself what i wanted to learnt this year and i told myself it gotta be something totally new. After a while, i got my answer. I finally managed to get myself around Adobe Illustrator. Now, i think i am pretty good in doing Graphic Designing tasks. Considering that i did that without taking any professional training, i think i deserve myself a pad on my own shoulder…hehehe :-)
  3. Money Management – Let’s just say i am pretty good with my money this year. No more impulse shopping! Surviving the first few months in business world without getting my salary has tought me alot…
  4. Patience – Looking back on myself 5 years ago, i know that i didn’t have much patience on alot of things back then. But as i grew older and wiser, i knew that i gotta change it and this year i was really determined to finally take control of my unnecessary anger. Generally, i have been a nice guy most of the time, but certain things could easily tick me off. However, i am a better man now, i think…
  5. Appreciating the Value of True Friendship – I have only a few close friends. I know it might sound pathetic but i am perfectly fine with that. All my close friends are amazing people with the greatest hearts. I don’t know what i would do and where would i be without them. However, i do want to make some new ones along the way…
  6. Developing a Brand - Ok, i surprised myself with this skill as well. I didn’t know that i am good in create a brand but that’s the truth. I think i did a great job creating a brand for ArdentEdu. Now, we just finished developing prototypes for Ardent EduKit, and they look AWESOME!! Damn, i’m good!! hehehe…just kidding :-)

I think that pretty much it. I am hoping 2009 will be a great great year for me and ArdentEdu…and hopefully i can make a few new good friends too…

Fazdlee. Out.
