My CEO Journey

This article was sparked from dropping my eldest at the enrichment centre. Before I left her for class, I told her to "Enjoy Youself!". Then I stayed for a short moment while she walked in, and overhead many parents telling their kids like "Pay attention.", "Speak loudly today." "Get more stars (the teacher will give a number of stars according to their performance)", and so on. None asked their kids to enjoy. Seems like the focus is performance. Well, let me set it right. I expect my child to pay attention in class, and speak up when she knows the answer or have some stuff to say. My intention of enjoyment is definitely NOT just playing other things while the teacher teaches. However, what I hope is through the class, she finds things that she enjoys. It's a Chinese enrichment class. So it could be finding enjoyment in reading, listening, or interacting with others in Chinese. Whatever it is, as long as she enjoys something from the lesson

It's 2020 for more than half a month now, and I am only doing a review now. I have been really busy, really really really busy as I mentioned here ... Personal 2019 was a year of self- discovery.

It's just their advice ya. Overall, I am more happy than I used to be which was a great plus. Career I am in a career rut and I almost decided to leave my current company . Well, I didn't and I think it was okay, as now I have a new mentality. My aim is just to coa

It has been a real long time since I have written anything in this space. I had been really busy with life. With a recent addition to the family, I have been busying with feeding, diapering, pumping, and carrying the baby. This is on top of the demands of my other two kids, cooking and maintaining the home to liveable standards (i.e. not too untidy and dirty). So guys, if you think maternity leave is just rest and relax, you can consider doing an internship at my home (I'm kidding, really). My eldest will be  entering primary one soon. I was looking through the primary school textbooks and worksheets when I realized she is way behind. While I can hope for the full day childcare to work miracles on her till she enter primary one, it'll be better if I do more than hope. I have been trying to teach my daughter. Maybe just 10 - 15 minutes per day while Lovely 2  and the baby are asleep at the same time (key is AT THE SAME TIME, not too often). I'm not sure if this 10 - 15 m
