Wired Chinese Knot – The Perfectionist

IMG_2720


A sneak peek of my latest project!!! *Weeeeee*

New knot desu ne!!! Actually it isn’t a new “new knot” per se, Chinese Knotting is well known of it’s versatility and hence, this knot is a derivation of a basic Chinese knot itself. I am still in the midst of exploring it’s possibilities, finding a perfectmatch for this knot is going to be fun!!! I start it with ring, and am confident it will be made into bracelet and earrings. I lurrrve new earrings designs!

It’s been awhile since I picked up my pliers, aside from the recent copyright infringement incident, I too am busy learning some new stuff to value add myself. Have you heard of SEO? I think everyone should pay some attention to it. Other than that, finalizing my course outline also keeping me busy, remember to write to me if you 1) stay in Malaysia, 2) interested to learn to make jewelry that can sell, 3) interested to run an online business.

Oh one more thing, to all Malaysian bloggers – if you are with Google Adsense you might have to register a company, I know, that sounds silly, it is depressing that us people are so restricted to be creative in earning money, but please do whatever it takes so that you will not be positioned at the false. Malaysia is a place for survivals, we all will live. To register a company, avoid The Mall period – they are slow and they will handle agent’s requests first, go to the one in Shah Alam, and go there early, they open from 8:30am, you should be done by 10:30am if you do everything correctly – bring a copy of your I/C.

Today’s lunch is McDonald’s McDeluxe spicy chicken burger, with a complimentary Coke – well, thanks LH, actually. She had migraine and took some pain killers, so she had to ditch her Coke; I was craving for just the burger when I placed my order, no Coke, and I don’t mind taking over her Coke since painkillers and soda cannot mix. :P

Do good stuff, and be creative!

Wire Wrapped Jewelry

 IMG_2659


I got this pretty stone from Tammy about 2 weeks ago and was then too occupied to post an entry for it. :)
I still don’t know what stone this is, perhaps you could tell!!!
So the ultimate request is – remove the stone from the frame (without having it scratched or chipped), and then transform this into a wire wrapped jewelry.

A very interesting knowledge I’ve gained though when I go search what wire wrapped jewelry really is all about, and I think the described key differences between wire wrap jewelry making with other approaches to make jewelry made sense, that wire wrapped jewelry is made of wires, and findings that made with wires too such as ear wires, jumprings – you can totally construct all these elements by shapping wires into the desired form or cut them into pieces to give you what you need to compose your design; and wire wrapped jewelry is made using mechanical connections between components or elements WITHOUT soldering or other heat treatments. :)

Now I know what is my core. I have a soldering gun since 2 years ago, I haven’t lighten it up not even once, though I would agree moving towards soldering would bring my whole jewelry making experiences into a complete new stage, but I still love what I do now – making everything by throwing out an “organic” challenges.

More pictures, and cookies (Dao-Sa-Pia) from Up North Malaysia, Penang. :) Thanks Tammy, I’ve finished them before I get to post this article, and I can’t finish them all, so I shared it with my colleagues that’s well known Dao-Sa-Pia lover. :)
 IMG_2658IMG_2665

And this is me with my cookies. Yum! :P

I want to design something slightly extra-ordinary, wish me luck, people. :)

Wired Chinese Knot


Note: The above picture has got nothing to do with Wired Chinese Knot. Photo courtesy by Anya from Taiwan.
Actually, the title of this blog post was “Wired Chinese Knot and Me”. I typed a whole page long blog post and as I type I found myself vulnerable. Then I deleted everything. I don’t know how to start and don’t know what to say anymore. :)

So, WHERE have I been for the passed one week?
While the recent copyright infringement case let me (and many other designers) down, I have found some pure and good spirits as well. For those who’d contacted me via twitter/ facebook/ E-mails/ Private messages via forum, I thank you for your warm support, you guys have helped me through a tough time yet again when I see absolutely no hope from the supposedly reliable counterpart.

For Taiwanese friends that had shown support, thank you for being understanding, I know it is equally painful for you to find out that someone you have always trusted is not entirely the person you’ve thought you know.

Then, what is that ROSE in the picture?
Check this gorgeous Wire Weaving Jewelry while meeting the new found talent from Taiwan. People, her name is Anya. According to Anya, she learned to her first ROSE ring from Kiki aka BorneoQueen’s tutorial (it’s currently sold out in Etsy at the moment, perhaps you could contact her directly to check if she would relist it), and I am sure Kiki is proud of her. It’s hard to find a student who’d love a design that much and then keep finding a way in refining them, often students buy tutorials to check out how to create the design on the cover even though the technique introduced could be applied in many ways onto many other pieces. Anya, applied the technique taught in Kiki’s tutorial,into her own design by utilizing the relevant techniques – and finally when them both merged, this beautiful ROSE ring is born. I lost count of how many times Anya have told me about how grateful she was to have learned the basic technique correctly from the right person since the beginning, i.e. from Kiki herself via her tutorial. When that happened, the effort invested into a tutorial is well paid off!
This can be an adjustable ring, or a fixed size ring. It’s rare that such a big and bold design can be this delicate at the same time, and I am in awe. If I get to choose to own a piece of this, I would go for a fixed size ring simply because I am such a clumsy person, I won’t want to lose this gorgeous creature if I’ve ever own one.

P/S You can order this design from Anya directly, and no, I don’t take commission. :)
Thank you so much for reading, and I hope you have a great week ahead.

New Blog Layout on iPAD and I am loving it!

photo 1
I LOVE MY BLOG – on iPad. Click to enlarge the picture if you like!
So do you see what needs to be improved? ArtFire. :) iPad doesn’t support flash, and there is no other pictures can be funnier than this:
the-flash-iphone-ipad-spoof
Picture source from internet. :P

Google Adsense and I
I was just having a conversation with my girl friend when I was showing her my blog on iPad, and she said: Ah you have Google Ads on your website. I looked at her and go: “duh?”.
Who wouldn’t have a Google Adsense account? I mean, I have been blogging since Blogspot freshly released, before Google bought it over! For those who started to blog since blogspot’s early day would it was a huge thing, and then next thing you know is everyone has an Google Adsense account.
She: ”Will you click on those ads?”
Me: “You mean clicking on those ads on my website? No, of course not, why?”
She: “Well, will you click on ads on other people’s sites?”
Me: “If it’s something I want to find out, yes, of course, why?”
She:” You mean you’d actually click on ads?” (she sounds I have offended her.)
Me:”Uh huh..”

She went silence. I kinda know where was she coming from. Please let me remind you though about Google Adsense, when you sign up, you gotta agree that you will not click on ads on your own website and will not ask your friends/ family members to click on them, Google want people who are genuinely want to find out about things to click on those advertisement links. Put it this way – if I were to park money with Google because I needed the traffic, do you think I should pay Google because some publishers click on my advertisement themselves so they can get paid from Google? Google of course, will punish those publishers for me – and to protect my interest, Google will not charge me for those fake clicks!

By the way publishers, you really don’t need to do that to earn money from Google, really. All you need to do is write good content so Google could put correct advertisement on your website, and since your readers are already reading what you wrote they will click on relevant advertisements to find out more about stuff. I have been in IT field and I know how people these days just won’t see the advertisement links anymore, they got immune to it, and there is nothing wrong about that. It is just like receiving news letters from someone from time to time, it is totally fine that you decided to unsubscribe it, all you are losing out is the latest news, you can always do a catch up later and you gotta be fine. But human being are weird, when you don’t see spams in your junk box you started to wonder if your mail server was having problem; and when you don’t see ads you started to think why there isn't anything out there worth advertising? Heh – might not be true for to you, just my $0.02.

So back to me, being someone would actually click on Google Advertisements - if you are a publisher that has Google Ads on your website, and if you see some clicks from Malaysia from your Google Analytic report, that’s probably me. Though I didn’t do it to put $0.08 (more or less) into your pocket, I do it for the information I was going to get, I knew what am I getting myself into, and I am fine with it. Some Etsy artisan too, advertise with Google and heck, I was actually glad that Google place a door to their world right infront of me! This is also one of the reason why I have ads on my website – I cannot have all jewelry related information on my blog, I don’t have that capacity, I write each and every blog entries myself, not by robot, not by modifying some existing contents from else where in the internet so that it would become unique and raw, no, nothing like that on my blog. I try to be as informative as possible, telling you about things I know and would do, if Google found a relevant ads about my blog entry they will put an ad on my website so that you will have access to things that might interest you, my website is just a platform, Google place ads base on what I write, if I write nonsense it will not be kind to me either, gladly, so far what I’ve wrote targeted Google Ads pretty well, seldom would I see irrelevant advertisements appear on my website – and do you know what that means? That mean Google acknowledge me as a serious blogger that tell serious stuff about handmade jewelry and jewelry making, if you see ads on my website, have some faith that that is Google trying to fetch you information that you might be interested with, they could have put a public charity ads on my website if they can’t find an advertisement that suit my website content.

Last but not least, please don’t get me wrong – all I am trying to do in this blog entry is to suggest you to give Google some credits for targeting right audience for their advertisement placement, personally i think it is amazing, the search engine engineers rocks, and when you are browsing the internet, never fear in clicking Google Ads if the title interest you – what do you think how I’ve discovered my favorite jewelry making forum and my suppliers? :)

Happy weekend all! :)

de Cor’s Handmade Jewelry, Wired Chinese Knot, unofficial brochure

image

Please allow me to brag a little about my friends.

Handmade Jewelry
Ever since I’ve picked up wire jewelry making I am pretty much a changed person. Before that I am only dealing with my friends, classmates, schoolmates and colleagues, with this online business the world unfold itself infront of me, I get to see lots of different talents from different field, things that I never paid attention for now I am obsessed with, and I am always amazed with what my friends can do – like, before Facebook even existed, one of them have already came up with an idea about human directory service, according to him that service went really well until it went out of control, they weighted the consequences they decided to let it die a natural death.

Then come MunHon, my uni-mate that like to create his own game cause he can’t find the game he like to play. At second year in school he decided to write a network gambling game when everyone else was writing a simple MP3 player with Visual Basic. We’ve became colleagues after I graduated (he’s my senior though he is younger, my case is the outcome of not knowing what to do after high school), and then he left the company to pursue his own dreams. Not long after he left the company, we had a chat when he was building my website. It was just a mere MSN conversation, that I’ve told him how my another friend’s friend in U.S. is making tons of money by writing one stupid iPhone app, he then decided to write an iPhone game for the sake of testing the market, i.e. SpaceJunk, and the reason why he do this is because I’ve told him “you gotta plan something for yourself in case you got brain damage and can no longer code”.
See? Being influential is easy, grant me a chance I can inspire you somehow. :P

Fun Online Photo Editing
Next I want to talk about the founder of this application, Steven - Look up, boys and girls, the only picture in this post is the outcome of that application in less than 3 minutes! Steven is another friend of mine, also my uni-mate and ex-colleague. Well, honestly speaking I don’t really know him other than knowing his name and where he lives, but he came to me when this application goes beta, an application that portray a fun way to do an online photo editing - Beta means the application isn’t perfect YET. And I am the chosen one to be the guinea pig, look what he said to me:
“Save the picture if you want to, use them if you need to, and I hope this application can help you with your stuff somewhere somehow.”
Did you hear that? Do you know what that mean? If this application can serve me as a person, it can serve a millions – if he is going to be a multimillionaire in the future, I have just witnessed a success story! A successful business isn’t about the dollars you earned, it’s about the value you have added to this world and it’s about how many people you can serve as well as how many services you can provide. General speaking – solving problems and feeding them with solution is the key to big bucks!

Well, I don’t know about you, I am excited with this. Since it’s still in beta I won’t reveal where you can consume this application, one thing I can tell though – is that you won’t have to install anything to consume this application. Since I am the supposedly guinea pig, I am going to use this tool to create beautiful pictures and present it in my blog, I know you will love it, and then you will tell me you want it. :P

Have fun!

Lost and Found

image

One of my greatest fear is: what if my customer didn't like what I've made?

Designs are subjective, they are so subjective that sometimes no one would like what I like, or, I can never go along with somebody’s idea. I love what I create, it's like a mother can never dislike her child, to me whatever I've created are pretty, including those that stays in the box underneath my bed. I love them, all of them, for a simple reason - cause I've created them, each one of them despite them being imperfect they contributed in refining my skills somewhat somehow.
Remember SeaWave earrings? I twitted about it’s owner have lost it awhile ago, I cried aloud out the moment I've gotten the bad news, next thing came into my mind was - how am I supposed to recreate them? Honestly, I never reproduced anything if I haven’t written them into tutorials – I forgot how I make my pieces, everytime I create it’s a clean start to me. I think sometimes forgetting is blessing in art field, only then you will be able to invent.

So I’ve gotten the bad news in Facebook’s inbox, I replied after I’ve calmed down:
“。。。。找不回來嗎?左邊還是右邊呢?我不知道能否複製呢。 ”("Sure you can't find it? Left or the right side of it? I am not sure if I can reproduce...")
Then, it was a complete silence from her. For about a week. I was certain that she must be trying to find it, and was certain that I should give her some time. So I left her alone for a week.
“得空要回答我一下啊親愛的”("Reply me when you can, dearie.")
“親愛的Corra,掉了右邊的,唉,真是的。心裡不捨呢,但是不強求啦,不能複製也沒關係。 ”(Dear Corra, lost the right side of it. Sigh, can’t bare the loss but I guess just had to let it go, it’s okay if it can’t be reproduced.”

She sound like she was giving up. And I felt guilty for not even giving it a try to reproduce! So on July 9 at 2:07pm , I wrote to her again to tell her to pass me the left side of the earring, and I am going to try to reproduce the left side of it.
And then on the July 10, the universe did it’s magic! I got a message from her early morning, telling me that she’d found it. It’s in a recycle bag (RECYCLE BAG!!! MEANS SHE COULD HAVE THREW IT AWAY!!!) that she used to keep her documents, and it’s inside one of the file - She found it when she wanted to add some more documents into that file.

She blogged about this too, and as you can see, she took great photos as well:

P/S 失而復得的不止是你而已文心,謝謝。

Bridal Jewelry Set Challenge

P1090792

A new custom order I’ve received. Her wedding’s in October, and hence I have plenty of time to work on this. Ms. H has a pair of perfect earlobes, round and the pierce were perfectly done – she told me she was going to let down her hair, and she will be wearing my designs for the wedding dinner (how honored!).
How to design a bridal jewelry set or wedding jewelry set
Initiate everything from asking this question: “When do you want to start, how do you want to pay?”
Then, carry out following tasks:
First: Obtain following items:
  1. Picture of the bride, with her gown on and preferably with her hairdo, get her to put on a pair of white round pearl earrings (studs), too, cause a pair of round pearl studs earrings usually tell a thousand stories.
  2. Picture of the groom (who say groom isn’t significant?)
  3. Length of the bride’s neck starting from the end of earlobe to collarbones.
Second: Study and Observe
  1. Observe the gown’s color
  2. Observe the bride’s skin tone
  3. Observe her face shape
  4. Observe her earlobe’s shape and her ear pierce position – you can decide if she should go for studs earrings or dangling earrings.
  5. Observe what her man’s going to wear, the color of his gown is something you have to watch out for. Ideally, she shouldn’t have more than 3 colors around her, if it has to be more than 3 colors, then time for you to refer to color wheel.
Third: R&D, Design
  1. Sketch and discuss – please take note that the bride might have already been bias towards you cause they already liked your work and hence they came to you, be happy if you can please them but if the bride is overly happy with your design in your very first attempt – don’t join her too soon, thank her for liking your design but come on, you do know you need an honest, or rather, rationale input from the alien men species. Men don’t have to know what and how you made the jewelry, just ask him one question and expect “nice” or “not nice” as answer, after all the bride won’t get to see herself that much as compared to the groom, we got to take care of the groom’s feelings too (so that in the future, say on their subsequent wedding anniversaries, mother’s day, Christmas or Easter, they know who they can turn to for an easy way out).
  2. Prototype your pieces using cheaper materials – don’t break your precious metal such as silver or gold wires until you are sure it’s going to be useful, if you are going to use precious stones for your actual design, find something similar in terms of color tone and shape for your prototype pieces first.
  3. Photograph your prototype pieces – cut down on digital editing this time.You are not going to list this item in your online store and wait for someone to fall in love with it, you have a targeted customer this time so make sure your customer sees what they are expected to received. Wear the prototype to let her see how does it look like as in overall.
Forth: Execution
  1. Give them your account number, or create a listing for them to check out, ya know... whatever – just make sure they commit to the transaction. This is to protect your interest so be flexible about it, perhaps you would want to get the down payment first so that’s fair for both parties.
  2. Break your silver or gold, make your design.
  3. Send them to her.
  4. If time permits, ask her if she need any bridesmaid jewelry, or is her bridesmaid in safe hands.
If you are planning for your wedding, here some reference you can check out from Amazon. :P

I am off to the drawing board now, and I will keep you posted with the progress, so, stay tuned!

Handmade Jewelry Challenge, Wired Chinese Knot perhaps

DSC_4658
I was about to start working on a series of beach jewelry for the summer, but my dear customer, Tammy, contacted me for a new project. It’s a transformation challenge! This beautiful stone belong to Tammy’s very cute mother (trust me she’s cute, but I won’t show you what I saw from Tammy's Facebook (er you don't know what Facebook is? :P) profile of her and her cute mother LOL!), that according to Tammy, cute-mama said she would like it to be oblong instead or vertical as the original.
Here’s another view of the original look:
 DSC_4662
Handmade Jewelry: Goal
I am totally excited for this project!!! Although Tammy told me she’s not sure what stone is this but I think I can pretty much tell what it actually is when I get it. Hmm I don’t know what I will do about it and what will I do with it YET, but I am confident that it will turn out beautifully because I know myself well that, my goal – my ultimate goal with my handmade jewelry business, is to create something one could pass down! I am determine to make it happen, and i know I CAN make it happen. :P

*turning into Malaysian English slang*: SO, AH-YI PLEASE WAIT FOR ME!!!

P/S I am meeting Tammy this Sunday (hello babe, all the way from up North to KL, thank you for trusting me!), and I will work on this gems as soon as I got them. Can’t wait!
Stay tuned!

My Malaysia Online Handmade Jewelry Business and Live Coaching and Training

image

I received mails like this more than often that I would post them up every single time. Sometimes, ya know, I just want to keep these myself. I read these amazing E-mails over and over again and these E-mails are literary my Chicken Soup for the soul. I remember everyone’s name that had wrote to me, I learn their names by heart. I know one day I will fly, and I know I will call their names. Though every now and then I will allow myself to feel high for a little praise, this month it was Dr. Mary’s mail that have made my day. With her permission, I am adding this into my testimonials:
“I write courses and teach as well and I wanted to comment on your excellent well-written tutorial and thank you for sharing, at no cost, your beautiful design.
Mary”
I am thrilled with what I’ve been complimented. Thank you, Mary, for recognizing my hard work, all my late nights and tired squinted eyes paid off reading your E-mail, you have no idea how what you wrote had restore one’s faith. And… well, other than E-mail like what Mary wrote, I have people writing something like this too (click to enlarge the picture):image
“I like your handmade earring so much, is unique and attractive. May i know is it possible to attend some class to learn from you? can u pls let me know the fees of class, i am really interesting on this.
Thanks,
Wong”
If you are like Ms. Wong whom feels that my Wire Jewelry Tutorials that teaches you Wired Chinese Knots Jewelry OFFLINE isn’t enough, and are keen to learn it ONLINE AND LIVE from me – for making custom jewelry of your very own or, want to start a handmade jewelry business with minimal effort and capital, or, run an online business and see the world, like me – WRITE TO ME for more details, cause we are now planning to extend this online teaching business to live-coaching, I, personally, will teach you how you can utilize de Cor’s designs to adapt to handmade jewelry of your very own, with 100% of your own care and full attention, with your passion and with your love. My intention is simple, I do this because I can, and I want to.

Background of de Cor’s Handmades (Handmade Jewelry Online Business)
A little background of how I’ve came about my online business - I’ve gone through the process of how to start an online business with just USD$0.20, and made my first USD$10,000 in less than one year, and I think you should duplicate my success. So instead of just teaching you how to make my design(s) (you still can, of course, if you are dead-serious that you want absolutely nothing more than just my designs - I am more than happy to have you in class anyway), I am also keen to help you to find or identify how you can find your very own style and developing your very niche, and come up with your very own design, a design that’s completely yours, with just a little help (or push) from your mentor (which is ME) – everyone deserves a signature design, if you get what I mean. But let me be upfront and frank – I can’t afford to do this for free, so this is a charged educational program, so only serious enquiries will be entertained. And to start, I am only taking 5 students at this stage - I will only concentrate in grooming this 5 person before I move on coaching and training the next batch of students.

Who Should Take This Course
This LIVE coaching and training opportunity is only applicable for Malaysian and Singaporean at the moment for the time being, unless you are willing to travel and find your own accommodation and transportation though I can help booking – reason why I stressed about this part is because, this can NOT be an one-day training or course because there are too much to teach! Hello? Being successful is not an one day job, that I won’t lie to you, but you get to learn it the easier way, I am not saying that you don’t need to invest your effort, you will have to, my role is to coach and help you through it if you are unsure. I am going to make things transparent and easy to you by telling you of what I’ve done and which route I’ve took, of how I’d took advantages on of the current market trend so my business could ride on it instead chasing after it and watching just the tail of success. So on top of my head, it will be an at least THREE-FULL-DAY-COURSE. Full-day means you are going to see me from 9am to 5pm and if you can’t finish what I want you to do you can not go home (I am kidding).

One of the key doing right thing the right way is finding yourself a right mentor, in this case, can someone (which is ME, Corra Liew) that had just raised an online business with USD$0.20 capital and fetched USD$10,000 in one year have your attention? So other than learning my design to help you kick start your creativities, I am also going to “study” you and help you identify your strength and setting up your own niche, or to help you to finalize one signature design for yourself if possible. I am also keen to teach you what I’ve done to improve my creativities and photography skills (you will be interested to find out what did I do to myself to have steady hands that takes sharp photos), may be (I said may be) my lawyer friend will nod his head and agree to educate you on how to protect your designs when you are selling online as well as how you should deal with copyright or Intellectual Property issues when things go wrong – these are just part of it, and I am also going to feed you all kind of tools that I personally use (and still using) which helped (and still helping) me with the business, such as formula to determine my jewelry price, templates I use for my eBooks and for marketing purposes, and etc. I would also provide you a list of suppliers (I mean, HONEST and RELIABLE suppliers) of mine, as well as list of contact for great, great, few of the top Web designers in town that charge a completely reasonable price that would help you jump start your business by applying set of online marketing strategies..

Too many!!! I have to be more organized and do not overpromise and gosh this is HARD! Just bear in mind this is going to be a three full-day course and my goal is to hear you say “I am glad I have met you.” alright? How’s that sound? Haha!

Now last but not least, since I am self-taught online entrepreneur (I use the word “Entrepreneur” because I am not a fan of being a self-employed, the difference between self-employed and entrepreneur is that the latter get paid for the value they added to the society and for people they served, they (which is me), make money when they (which is me) sleeps, ride horses (no, really, I’ve got E-mail notifications from PayPal the day I went for horse riding in one of my relative’s house hahaha), and play. I am a sucker for that. I, am, a sucker for not having to be there all the time for my business and fear that if one day I don’t work for my business my business will disappear.

Why Education is IMPORTANT
I remember one of a phrase I’ve read: If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.
Like my favorite artist, Mr. Will Smith said: “too many people spending money they haven’t earned buying something they never need to please people they don’t like”, something like that and you get the idea. Investing to yourself can always wait – that’s what an ordinary person would tell themselves and that’s exactly why they stay at where they are.

Remember this:
“You always project on the outside, how you feel on the inside.”
Look at me designs, you will know I am a very focus person. For someone that focus cannot groom too many people at one time, and I look forward helping you to achieve your goal, you will have my attention throughout the workshop.

Take Action Before Your Seat is Gone.
If you foresee internet can be your world, internet business can work out for you, then this is for you. I remember when I start this I know absolutely nothing about it, as a Malaysian I don’t even know how I can cash out my earning. But today if you ask me, I would tell you I am glad that I’ve took the first step, and hence the rest is history. It would be a total different story today if I hadn’t, and I would probably asking myself just this question: “What did I do? When I can?”

So, Write to me, and remember to include following details otherwise your request will not be entertained.
Name:
Age: (I don’t mean to be rude but this is very important, I need to know this so that I could advise you on which jewelry making tool you might want to have it handy.)
Phone Number:
Address:

I will follow up with you of the course outline. Like I said, it’s going to be a workshop that would last at least three days depending on the finalized course outline, and, please, please only write to me if you are serious about signing up for the course, I appreciate your understanding. If you are keen to sign up, be quick – because there are only FIVE seats available at this stage.

Now go give it some thoughts and have fun considering – if you have been seeking for an opportunity and at the same time you are an employee, all you need to do is to sacrifice some of your golden time of day, i.e. 7pm to 11pm, to prepare, plan, build and groom your very own business while your friends or whoever it may concern are watching WaLaiToi or what not’s. If you have been thinking to start something, you either do something today to have something changed and gain something, or do everything the same way you did everyday and be okay with it for the rest of your life.
