In a fast paced society and with the presence of the Internet, we tend to have lesser time for ourselves because we are constantly searching for more information.

However, have you actually sat down to think, whatever you are looking for on the Internet, is it going to serve you well?

In 2 days time, I will be meeting my primary school classmates from Pei Chin Public School whom I have lost touch since 20 years ago.

How did I manage to locate my primary school friends? It was all thanks to Facebook.

I was just browsing around on Facebook one day and I thought that I might as well search for some of my primary and secondary school friends whom I have not met for a long time.

To my surprise, one of my classmate Nick actually still has the Primary 6 graduation photo where he posted it on Facebook.

I was looking at the photo for a long time and realized that it was our P6 graduation photo pwhen I saw myself in the picture.

Since then, I’ve been telling my colleagues and other friends that I’m meeting my primary school friends whom I’ve lost touch for 20 years on 20th September.

What a feeling! I’m really looking forward to the meet up with my long lost friends and it sure will be fun to see how they have changed (physically and mentally) after all these years

Kudos to Facebook for making this happen and now I understand why is Mark Zuckerberg the youngest billionaire on earth.

In our previous meet up session of the Guerilla Business Intensive Graduates, we were talking about marketing our own business and own products.

Being in the busuness of promoting health supplements through the network marketing channel for the past 6 years has actually made me feel like I am having my own business.

However, one of our members in the network pointed out that the company I represent is not my own company or my own products!

It is good to use the business I have now to generate an income or even a small fortune for me but in the long run, I should start my own company marketing my own products or services.

What a wake up call this is for me?

I have actually embarked on a journey to find my passion after thus wake yp call and I found that I enjoy helping others to sell more of what they are selling and also encouraging individuals to start up a business for themselves.

What do you think?

Would it be appropriate for me to start a marketing company providing marketing services or a company providing services to assist individuals to start up their own business?

Looking forward to your comments!

Cheers!

Since the day that I’ve embarked on the endeavor of starting my own business, I’ve always been trying to do everything myself.

I wanted to save on every cent I can since I feel that I’m not generating enough income for me to outsource the projects that I’ve in hand.

However, after hearing so many gurus talked about how outsourcing can not only allow me to do what I do best, I could also utilize the resources of others to input things I otherwise would not have written.

I have finally decided to outsource some of the things I am doing to people at guru.com or elance.com who could do things for me at a good rate where I can focus on what I do best:

Sharing my happy life project with others.

Cheers!

Technology is amazing! I am actually able to write this blog post using the iPhone I just bought with the free applications from iTunes.

I never thought that this was possible and thanks to Armand Morin who wrote that Wordpress application is available on iTunes did I know about it.

I was also contemplating to get the Samsung Omnia as compared to this iPhone and only after seeing what is available on iTunes, I made up my mind.

I know that I made the right decision now with all the possibilities this iPhone can offer.

Great choice.
