My mama always said life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get – Forest Gump (Tom Hanks)The Interesting quote above from the movie Forrest Gump somehow is very true in this life. I would like to share a little about my experience in business and life. This sharing is a continuation of my previous sharing “The Road to Success is Always under Construction”.
As I stated before that we started the new Klick N Save on January 2007. Basically we concentrated on the nursery products with an online marketing approach. The whole team began the journey with full of passion. Let me show the deepest appreciation to the great team, and I feel so lucky to have a chance to be one of them.
However, there are a lot of different problems not only from the business point of view. Different problems also came from the personal life of the members. One of them had to go back to Indonesia due to the sickness of the family member. The other had to go to China to pursue his education. I personally experienced a very bad mental breakdown approximately a couple of months ago due to the financial situation, pressures from the business, and of course the difficulties from the transition period since I just finished my university.
With so many problems we decided to stop the online business operation at the end of September 2007. I will continue the security analysis division to live my dream. Probably I am the most stupid person in the world due to the fact that I still want to keep the company and try to work on it. I really cannot imagine where I will bring the company and how I will drive the company. I just try to concentrate to make up the pieces of the puzzle and hopefully I can create a complete picture in the future. I know there will be more challenges in the future so please wish me luck!! Honestly, I feel so sad about the situation.
Hopefully this little piece of experience would be useful to the fellow readers.
