Perform a one minute improvement task daily
This is one of the main conclusion I get from T.H. after attending his course at SIM for these past few days. His course is good, very informative and most importantly, he spurred me to do the above statement. It can be anything, like calling a friend, reading a good article. Anything that could help in your personal development. What I have decided to do was to read the commentary page in the Straits Times daily. I used to read the newspapers daily when I was in JC because of the General Paper subject. But recently, I was more on the net rather than reading stuff. Guess he is write. A person who can write and speak well will get them a job anywhere. His course made me realised that without a wide vocabulary, you cant write and speak well. And this made me recalled that a few days ago, when I was translating my boss's speech from Japanese to English, I had diffculties as my vocubulary is limited.
So.. main goal for the rest of the year is to improve my vocabulary and my writing and presentation skills... and oh.. I just bookmarked the Business Times for my daily one minute read.. :)
