It's been a year since I left the accounting industry and tried what's consultancy services could offer. And as I reminisce the past year, I listed down what makes me grateful about the career I chose:
1. Field work - when I s tarted working in 2011, I know in my heart I'm not the 8-hr office girl type. I got bored staying in one place. Its an answered prayer for me to have a job where I was able to travel while working and be with the places I've never
been.
2. Meeting New People - Or should I say meeting big time business professionals. Because of my
job, I met a lot of people who were not just an ordinary employees of the company but the owner
itself or someone equivalent. Some of them become my mentors and so I can
dial their number if I need help and vice versa.
3. Decision Making - I am overwhelmed every time the manager, or any officers of our
clients ask my opinion or resolution over the the issues they've encountered. It feels
like my decisions are relevant to them and that’s wow.
4. Cool Colleagues - I need to be honest that one of the major reasons why I love where I am now is
that, I am surrounded with people who push me to become better than I was
yesterday. Our dev team who taught me to become detailed in discussing an issue. Our very own service team help me a lot in the implementation. And I am glad that green jokes are not part of the any conversations in our office. That’s rare.
5. Continues Learning - Above all things, this is why am happy and contented with where I am. I can still recall my interview day when I was asked why I want to be part of the company. The very first I said was “I want to learn more”. My work isn't routinary. It challenged me everyday. As I meet new people in different places, I was
able to learn from them. I know that they are bigger, smarter, richer than I am. But I am truly inspired by how John Maxwell discuss the importance of people ahead of me “The best place to learn is where others are ahead of you”

If something needs to be done, do it right as you would if the Lord we're standing by your side. If you don't have time to do it right the first time., how will you have time to redo it?-Dr. Lucio Tan
