Reflections

Been three (3) years since my last post.

Somehow today my long abandoned blog came into mind and so here we go.


I lost my cool today. To my defense I wasn't exactly upset but rather trying to bring across my arguments quickly and assertively. But I guess it sounded harsh and defensive. I just can't get over the fact that I had represented myself that way.


Next time I should think ... what would Megat do ? (Megat was my partner at the audit firm I was previously working at and I was very impressed by his humility and ability articulate his points in a clear, concise way despite challenging parties he was facing)

I should really learn to keep my cool. Last week, I tendered my resignation over differences with my manager. It's just that all bottled up events got me all disappointed and I decided this wasn't the place for me. Partly its my ego and proudness thinking with my capabilities I should be able to find another job quite easily.


But wells, the big boss talked to me and I decided to retract.
