Love this Ai Otsuka song about Happy Days. =) Even though I've bought 7 of her Live DVDs and she always sings this song, I never seem to get tired of it due to the fun sheer energy of this song. =)
Well, life in Standard Chartered has been one heck of a ride over this past few months. Firstly, it does feel great to be working with a bank that I genuinely do believe in. Feels like a genuine bank that works hard in balancing protecting ourselves and at the same time do our best to provide a genuinely good package for the customer.
Unfortunately, I did not ever think I'd ever come to this day where as a sales person, I'm complaining about having too many customers. =P. Shock? Some people give me these stares of disbelief and even cheer at it. But well, somethings not right when your list of things to do each day just pile and pile and pile and you end up forgetting do so many little things and you get sarcastic customers call you and say things like 'looks like you're not interested in my business.' Sigh, the type of customers we face each day eh? Well, I guess I can't blame this customer coz I did forget to do something important for the customer.
Well, how am I gonna overcome this? Well, I think it just has to be one day at a time. One humble pie to eat at a time if I fail to live up to the customer's expectation, one task at a time, and I believe the most important thing I'm learning from this experience, is one prayer at a time as well to God who can help me achieve the impossible and do it well to glorify Him at the same time. Now, thats something that I really want to keep more and more in my mind especially when you're living in a sales world thats always telling you that 'You Can Do It!'. Well, I do want to and can do this, but wouldn't want to do it without God.
God, please help me to keep this in mind more and more each day.
I dream and live for the day where I can give an award acceptance speech and first and foremost thank my wonderful Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. (Like they do at the Oscars or Grammys!)
Some people ask me how can I be so positive? Well, how can I not be when I know that God's got my back and He is ever with me. =)
In You I trust and commit my busy busy life at SCB, Jesus Christ. Amen. =)
