You will either step forward into growth, or step back into safety.

I’ve taken the step forward. There’s no turning back.
Well, for sure, I don’t wish to turn back, not even for a moment. To rest on my laurels or to advance forward, definitely the latter, even if it means venturing into unchartered waters.
Two weekends potentially burned in May, I’m not even complaining one bit. I hate punching numbers into the calculator, I hate looking at numbers, but suddenly, SiMSCI and Forex pairs are my daily acquaintances. I’ve yet to make them friends because I still find them very repulsive. Yes I prefer futures commodities, they are alot friendlier, I hate hate double hate Forex. But oh I’ve to grow to love, or at least, like, okay, or maybe just not mind them.
I realise the importance of, or rather, the necessity to know the products before I can market something when I was staring at an ad for SiMSCI seminars and not really knowing exactly why I should be telling clients/potential clients that investing in the SiMSCI indices is to “invest in Singapore’s future” (as I see in the pre-existing ad). I had to ask my colleague to re-explain to me (all over again) what buying a stock index like SiMSCI or Nikkei really means. I really have to brush up on product knowledge.
Crazy lot to learn, it never ends.
Off to the gym now!
