Meeting Mr Sak at His Garden Office
Upon arriving at Bangkot international airport, my partner in Thailand, Lukman, drove me to meet Mr Sak, an influential business man cum investor (as well as business and community coach). We spent almost 3 hours going through many issues and ideas at his garden office.
Put aside the business proposal that we are bringing to him, he was so passionate to share what he has discovered when he traveled extensively in the last 6 months in many parts of the world. His disovery is mind-bogling to him and us.
Admittedly, he confessed that if he were to be adamant of his great legacy, he will be irrelevant in no time. Things have changed significantly. Many forms of doing business (and that include business textbooks and professorial lectures) are out of context.
Now, he wanted to focus on three verticals that are (new) education sillabus to prepare for the future, business transformation and investment and funding. He was firm that all of these are interconnected and cant be taken in silo. His new tagline is ecosystem enterprise focussing on PPP (people, profit and planet).
He mentioned about his new investment in looking at how to transform SMEs in a manner which is cheaper and faster i.e. sharing economy. This will be a new revolution. What intrigued me is his deep observation - based on big data and A.I. - is that many SMEs succumed to failure due to not enough money, no technology capacity and bad marketing (and distribution). I cant agree more. SMEs need help on all of these.
Towards the end of the meeting and perspectives sharing, I realised that humans can learn by looking at each other experience. Sometimes, you need to listen to others more to unlock your own potential. Mr Sak just did that. Now, he is more impactful. I also realised that he and I shared the share area of interest that is A.I. Not bad a concidence (and a choice of new hobby) at our age.
Just before the sunset, Lukman and I rushed for our late lunch and early dinner at 7pm local time. A clear tom yam sup at one of the best restautants in the area of 'Pattani village' in Bangkok was a good moment to digest all the heavy loaded insights from Mr Sak.

lunch office ideas 在 AiClay Facebook 的最佳解答
Fancy some late night reading? I've been asked to put up my blog post here instead, so here goes.
" Heart-to-heart: On working from home.
It's been quite some time I wrote in here.
There have been so many social networking platforms to write on (Instagram, Facebook, Twitter) and it's just so much easier to post on the go with my phone that sadly, I've neglected my oldest networking site, here. By the way, I post DAILY on my Dayre (it's a new microblogging app, please go download and follow me there! I update constantly about what's going on in my life and AiClay work there)
Currently, I'm waiting for my lunch to cook (a vegetable patty in the oven and eggs waiting to boil). So let me talk about something that I've been thinking about these few days.
When I first quit my full time job (a 9-6 desk bound job) and started working on AiClay, I faced a constant turmoil of emotions. When I was working, I hated the daily shuttling from home to work, squeezing in the train filled with mobs of robotic and depressing faces, waking up to my annoying alarm and never having enough sleep. The list goes on. Constantly, I craved for the comfort of my warm bed, dreaming of snacking while watching telly dramas, or just being home.
But this changed very quickly when I brought my office home. Or called my home, my office. Whichever way you want to see it.
Admittedly, I had more than my fair share of slacking at home when I first quit my job. I didn't know how to schedule my work, or what I could work on if there were no commissions. I bathed in my newfound freedom to wake up anytime I wanted to, and to take breaks without seeking anybody's permission. There were even days I just slept till noon, went for mahjong dates, or lazed in bed playing Candy Crush (yup, that was the craze then) for hours. I probably squeezed in a bit of working in my tight schedule of being lazy. -dry laughter.
You know how they say, too much of something is bad enough? (okay the Spice Girls said this) That was definitely true for me. I had too much freedom, and freedom means nothing when there was nothing to be free from. Taking breaks was meaningless because I wasn't working prior to that, going on holidays made me feel guilty, and weekends just meant that I was resting (again) with the rest of the working world.
I felt a growing sense of unachievement (is there such a word?) as the days went by.
Also, I was so occupied with having fun, that it bugged me when I couldn't find dates. I felt so trapped at home, ironic as home was where I so desperately hoped to be when I was working.
I tried to fill up my schedule with meeting friends, anything that could allow me to leave home. But friends had colleagues to hang out with after work, or meetings to attend. My boyfriend suffered the brunt of my incessant need to leave the house. I was asking him out everyday, and unreasonably I was expecting him to accompany me constantly. Our relationship was strained as I grew clingy.
And then, one day it hit me. Even though I was supposedly working from home, I hadn't actually been doing so. 90% of my time at home was NOT doing work, so how could I say I was working from home.
The process of getting into a schedule, and gaining self-discipline is long and not easy. But 4 years into a home-based business, I can now say I REALLY spend at least 75% of my time at home working. Even if I'm shuttling between appointments (with friends or business), I'm replying emails and marketing on my social networks as well. There were a lot of factors that contributed to this as well. For example, I converted my room into a home studio where it's a lot more conducive to work from. My bed is now a makeshift one, so I no longer have the luxury to just laze on bed in between tasks. Or the fact that I've been blessed with having kind strangers and friends share their ideas and opportunities with me, and opening up my mind about the potential AiClay can blossom into.
The most awesome change I see in myself, is that I no longer feel bored or unhappening even if I spend the entire week just working from home. How can I, when I'm busy working on exciting new projects for AiClay and discovering new potential challenges. Of course, I still love meeting my friends and family, and would fit in dates with them every once in a while. It's just healthy for my system.
So that's my story. Sorry if I don't make sense some parts, or if this hasn't really been helpful for you. But if you work from home, please share your experience thus far with me. I'm always happy to hear your stories. :)
Now let me go peel some eggs. :) "
