Time To Better Yourself

With restrictions being lifted and many Malaysians returning to some semblance of normality, now is the time not to return to our previous mindsets and routines.
From experienced business owners to job-seeking graduates, look at the ways you lived your life before and how it could be better and happier for you. Update your business with more digital solutions so that you can implement more modern processes or re-look at your career vision and ask yourself if it is truly something you want to pursue.
Here are a couple ways that you could change yourself, your business, and your life for the better.
Join A Charity
During these times of Malaysians coming together and helping each other, you might feel that you want to play a larger part in society than just a 9-5 worker.
There are a range of charities that need your help, from St John's Ambulance to animal shelters, and need your skills to further expand to help their chosen cause.
Take a look at which cause connects with your heart and soul and apply to join them to begin your journey of giving and volunteering.
Start Your Business
Don't worry, I am not asking you to quit your job and immediately start your unicorn business. I am asking you to look beyond the 9-5 trap that many people think is the only option available.
During this time, you might have truly seen your job and management in it's true form and realised that this "work-to-retirement" option is not for you and that you want to be your own boss.
Take that first step and join a business webinar that BFM or MaGIC are offering as well as check out online business courses to have the fundamental skills and perspective to start formulating your business venture.
Be An Empathetic Leader
You might have seen your workforce as just a crowd of people who are lucky to be in your employment and whose only purpose is to execute tasks.
Put your employees at the heart of your organisation to make their concerns, objectives, and personality an integral part.
They will feel closer to decision making and helping them better their interpersonal and professional skills and therefore be more valuable to your business, clients, and customers.
Invest In Your Passion
You might have always wanted to pursue a passion of yours. From painting to rock climbing.
The Movement Control Order might have shown you what you love and craving to experience.
Let go of those things in life that are holding you back and plan to connect with these passions. But please keep it responsible.
Research where to get the basic materials and skills and start preparing your life to have this new passion in it.
