#entrepreneurs

We actually need more people on social media who give exposure of thr real challenges in life. We don't need to put an end to social media but we need to put an end to trends and practices that are making it hard to live for others.

---

An example of this I have seen in the lives of some of my colleagues.

---

They live in an over expensive residential areas so so they have to dress up and carry themselves just the way their neighbours do. No matter what they have to buy branded attires and go to famous places that they can boost about in their circle.

---

And all of this is mentally and physically exhausting. And they've admitted this but they can't break the trends.

---

So we don't need to exclude social media but we need to include the right source of social media that we need exposure of. We need imperfect influencers and unsuccessful entrepreneurs who share how they failed and failed till they had some sweetness of success .

Long Answer: I recently started developing a crush that would never work out (First crush in almost 4 years, what a disaster). Also been thinking recently I might be autistic and that's kinda weighing on me as well. On top of this I have 2 exams coming up that I'm nowhere near prepared for. Couple that with my crippling fear of failure (to the point where I'm scared to ask someone how to use a new printer and have to hide in a toilet cubicle and end up having a panic attack in there.. over a fucking printer). Oh and the 30 or so rejections for part time jobs I've had in the last 5 or 6 months - I spent 3 years volunteering and as much as I would have loved to continue that I couldn't continue to give my time to unpaid work whilst barely having enough money for 3 meals a day as a student. I have a habit of over-thinking so whenever I feel down I stop to make sure I gather every reason why I'm sad and overwhelm myself with it, I always seem to fly to emotional extremes. Not being able to see my youngest granddaughter. Her mom is....terrible and we don't have contact. I can't even legally do anything because I am not actually blood related, but no matter what anyone says she is my granddaughter. I just hope her mom does not mess her up too much. I just wish I could see her.
I want to be an entrepreneur and novelist. Bottomline, I want a freedom, but I'm not sure yet if that's what I really want. Because in the past years I've been changing course from wanting to be a detective, a musician, an athlete, aaand more.
Plus, entrepreneur and writer are two hard things in my country. Entrepreneurs are started to be appreciated because the boom in tech startups and society has experienced the benefits from it. But writer? People labelled it as an underpaid job, some could even say "how will you feed your family?" if I'd say I'll be a writer. I know, a successful writer will get paid a lot. There are examples in my country for successful writers. But then, there are only few percentages of them. Plus, reading is not a big thing here. What's big here is when you are a person of high position in a company, or if you have a shitton of salary.
I have empathy for homeless people too. I acknowledge that often times they end up homeless from multiple circumstances that aren't always their fault. People assume all homeless people chose to be. It's not like that... unfortunate things happened to them. Now animals they are adopted/raised by their owner. It's no different than a homeless toddler. They're a near helpless product of their owners environment and they have no choice but to suffer with them unless they run off....

* Background information
You are going to become an entrepreneur so gather all the information about your industry ( field ).
* Take risks
Entrepreneurship involves taking financial risks and it is really necessary for you to take your decisions wisely . Stick to your decisions , stay persistent.
* Face challenges ; Believe in yourself
You will face many hurdles , people may start doubting your abilities but you need to stay strong , you need to overcome these obstacles , overcome self-doubt . You may fail once twice thrice or many times but always remember that failure is not defeat , it is just learning how to succeed. With every challenge comes experience and that experience will help you in the near future .
*Peer group
You need to know how to build work relationships with people ( other entrepreneurs or rivals) , they can improve your business (boost your business financially)
All the best :)

Kalau ditanya bagus apa engga, ya jelas gagasan yang bagus.
Cuma ya itu tantangannya, masih berupa gagasan. Butuh validasi lebih lanjut.

---

Kendala utamanya apa? Justru bukan di OKOCE-nya, tapi di rakyatnya.

---

Gue kerja di sebuah perusahaan yang memungkinan (bahkan mengharuskan) gue ketemu banyak entrepreneurs setiap harinya. Gue udah ketemu banyak mulai dari yang perusahaannya sudah stabil, startup, sampai UKM-UKM.

---

Yang bagus dan menjanjikan? Banyak.
Yang ngablu dan ngga jelas? Lebih banyak.

---

Di Jakarta ini, ada lho orang yang ngaku lagi bikin usaha, padahal intinya dia lagi nyari pinjeman buat nyicil mobil.
Bahkan ada kasus di mana dia minjem uang koperasi ngakunya buat didistribusiin ke UKM, tapi sama dia dibuat ngajak pacarnya backpacking.

---

Intinya, banyak yang mikir "ah buka usaha ah" hanya karena berharap duit duit duit. Padahal mindsetnya ngga seperti itu.

---

Jadi pengusaha itu bukan cuma soal buru-buru dapet duit, tapi bikin pola pikir dan perencanaan soal akan kemana bisnis lu berkembang, dan target apa yang lu kerja tiap tahun, atau bahkan tiap bulannya.

---

Itu tantangannya OKOCE.
Kalau pada akhirnya OKOCE hanya sibuk memberi pinjaman modal tapi edukasinya gagal, bisa jadi pinjaman yang dikasih sama program ini dipermainkan sama orang-orang.

Okay - time for tough love.

You DON'T know if you have it in you.

Raw talent comes a dime a dozen. I'm serious. If you start looking, nearly everyone has some saleable skill or other. Intelligence is common, entrepreneurs are sprouting up like mushrooms, everyone is planning to be the next hotshot. Whatever you are good at - thousands will ALWAYS be better than you.

---

Raw talent is NOTHING.

---

Hard work, though - that makes winners. Determination makes winners. People weep to their way to the top, darling - they just don't talk about it.

---

People will belittle if you fail - you'll hate yourself if you don't even try.

---

You can run from them - but can you run from yourself?

---

NOTHING fucking hurts more than knowing you failed because you didn't even try. You're young now, and think you have millions of years ahead of you - but if you die today, at this very moment?

---

What are you leaving behind? What is your story?

---

And people - well, they'll belittle you even if you succeed. It's what they do. Every word of approbation and admiration and praise you crave right now? It's hollow. It doesn't mean ANYTHING. If and when you do get it - you'll realize it makes no fucking difference to your life.

---

If your idea of success is determined by what other people think of you - you'll never succeed.

---

Statistically speaking - you may actually never make it. Heck, most of us won't.

---

They still fight - why shouldn't you?

Graphic tees. Animal-themed ones.

Bringing up topics such as extinction and endangered species in order to raise people's awareness of environmental conservation/living-being welfare sounds like a forever-good idea to me.

---

I see that the idea of promoting it through graphic tees is considered so-last-year-ly lame, moreover childish and 'norak', but most of entrepreneurs I know said,

---

"If you want to start a business, make sure it comes from something you like--if not passionate at--or at least you're fond of."

---

As a matter of fact, I actually only have two plain colored-tees--except for undergarments, of course--the rest are plain (polo) shirts and graphic tees, simply because I find graphic tees are simple-yet-still-fun-to-look-at to be worn anywhere, except for formal occasions.

---

I found a reference from Pinterest (directed to: https://mrstiggywinkles.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/wanted-alive1.jpg) about promotional campaign of Panda conservation.

" yes I do know I have brain and 1 million dollars would be good enough BUT ......... BUT if I have extra intelligence, extra smartness, extra sense of understanding , better IQ , extra cleverness , improved intellect and have more luminosity then I can get an advantage over others in the sense that I will be a better judge of things around me , have better understanding of matters , and have the cushion of extra smartness over them. And when I get so many advantages over others , it would automatically become much more easier for me to make big money in no time. After all that's what commerce is all about . What's better than 1 brain ? => 2 brains . What's better than 1 million dollars? => capability to make much more than just one million dollars. Money comes and goes within seconds , but ability to make money always stays with the brightest of entrepreneurs

Actually, the better question would be, "why would smart, rational people choose to create a risky venture, instead of decent, stable income in employment?"
Let's see some perspectives here.
1. Launching your own full-time business is the sole road to great wealth
A friend of mine, who have been working in FMCG for 10 years, currently residing in Jakarta Timur in a decent house with 2 cars, lamented that had he chose to create his own business instead, maybe he would have bought a house in Pondok Indah with 5 cars now.
Is he right? No. Statistically speaking, the odds are greater that he would still be living with his parents instead, with no cars at all!
They say that 90% of businesses will not be successful. Only ten percent will probably deliver huge returns and be on the media. Check the topmost answer here.
https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-truth-behind-9-out-of-10-startups-fail
It's very, very easy to overestimate your competence and luck, thinking that you'll be in the same spot of those 10%. But all in all, it's definitely not a rational move. Smart people is rational.
2. Smart people = successful startups. I'm smart, therefore I will deliver successful business!
Skills and business acumen are of course the basic foundation of getting things done. But the hard truth is that creating a successful enterprise have a lot to do with market timing, creating the correct business trade-off, knowing the right people, and basically being at the right time and place.
In order to overcome that, GRIT is more required than basic intellectual prowess. That, and being from a successful parentage/school/environment.

I heavily encourage you to be more critical in seeing glorified entrepreneurs in your personal life or media. Take a look at the following link, a compilation of startups graveyard: Startup Failure Post Mortem
https://www.cbinsights.com/blog/startup-failure-post-mortem/

If wealth is all you seek, gain employment and skills in a decent industry, get a position with equity compensation, while keep on living below your means and saving your income in combination of stable and high-risk investment instrument. Don't make stupid investment decision (buying too many cars, etc), and you should be in upper-middle class by 45 or 50, a good achievement by society standard.

Or maybe you could try to scratch that entrepreneurial itch, but don't shoot down other people who chose the employment road. They might be way smarter than you, you are simply just way crazier than them. A good type of crazy.

TIDAK ADA such thing as ‘detoxing’ di istilah kedokteran/medis. It is 1000% NONSENSE.
Detoxing – ide bahwa kamu bisa nge"flush" sisa2 dosa penuh kalori di perutmu dan membuat organ tubuh kamu squeaky clean.. is a SCAM.
“LET'S BE CLEAR",kata Edzard Ernst, Emeritus Professor of Complementary Medicine at Exeter University,"Detox sebenarnya adalah proses kedokteran untuk merawat pasien kecanduan narkoba".
Kata "DETOX" ini di rampok oleh para entrepreneurs untuk menjual FAKE program.
Kalau kamu tanya ke penjual detox2an itu, "toxin" apa yang mereka maksud bisa di detox itu, mereka ga bisa jawab. Kalau ditanya lebih lanjut soal biologis mereka ga ngerti.
FACTS:
• Badan kita auto detoxing kok, clean eating, banyak minum air, tidur cukup dan olahraga adalah cara detox yang benar.
• Juice dan sayur memang kaya akan vitamin dan baik untuk kesehatan. Tapi it has nothing to do with toxin..
• Berat badanmu mungkin turun, tapi itu karena dilarang makan.. karena kamu kelaparan.. bukan karena toxin..
• Berat badan yang turun mostly hanya masa air, gycogen dan isi perut sementara sehingga begitu kamu makan normal lagi berat badan yang sudah turun juga balik lagi.
• Jika disuruh minum jus doang ga makan, akhirnya kurang kalori dan tidak sehat.
• Jika berlangsung lama akan menurunkan metabolisme membuat kamu malah bisa getting fatter with less foods.

Saat membaca label, ada 4 hal penting:
1. Total Kalori

---

2. Kualitas Kalori (See Ingredients)
Percuma low cal tapi isinya banyak racun seperti:
A. Trans fat (kadang ditulis hydrogenated fat), sumber kanker dan segala penyakit.
B. Refined Sugar, sumber kanker juga, dan penyakit2 lainnya.
C. Artificial Flavor, Pengawet, dll.
D. Too much sugar itu lebih parah dari makan nasi putih. Jauh lebih parah. Baca ask di bawah, kami jelaskan kenapa.

---

3. Komposisi Kalori
Kalau bisa yang isinya jangan cuma carbs/sugar dan saturated fats.
Fats harus 0% trans fat, sedikit saturated fat, kalau polyunsaturated & monounsaturated mendingan.
Contoh: ditulis total fats 20g. Saturated fat 6g, Trans fat 0. Dari sini kita tau berarti sisanya 14g itu unsaturated fats, berarti okelah.

---

Bonus: Cek apakah sudah expired atau belum 😛😜

Wanna be more LABEL SMART?
Ini dari artikel di IG kami dengan hashtag #SmartDieter:
BE LABEL SMART #DapurfitsOriginal
1. Organic
• Organic = bebas dari kimia, pestisida, pewarna, dll.
• Organic tidak berarti diet atau membuat kurus.

---

2. Cleanse / Detox
• Tidak ada yang namanya "detoxing" pada istilah medis/kedokteran. Ide bahwa kamu bisa nge-Flush sisa2 dosa penuh kalori di perut kamu dan membuat organ2mu "squeaky-clean" adalah SCAM. Kata "detox" sebenarnya adalah proses kedokteran untuk merawat pasien kecanduan narkoba. Kata "detox" ini dirampok oleh para entrepreneurs untuk menjual bogus program.
• Kok berat badan bisa turun kalo cleanse?
Iyalah disuru minum doang gausa makan, coba minum coca cola 6 botol sehari tp jangan makan, pasti kurusan juga. Intinya cuma extremely low calories diet. Cepet turun, cepet naik.

---

3. Whole Grain
• Hati2 terhadap produk whole grain yang tinggi akan "sugar" dan "kalori" karena whole grain tidak berarti all you can eat.

---

4. Reduced Fat
• Banyak produk yang fat nya dikurangi, tapi gula nya ditambahkan.. jika yang dikurangi adalah "heart-healthy unsaturated fat" dan yang ditambahkan adalah "highly refined sugar", maka sebenarnya it is actually worse!

---

5. Reduced Sodium
• Reduced sodium bukan berarti low sodium, hanya 25% less sodium dibandingkan original productnya. Jika original productnya mengandung very high sodium, setelah di reduced pun masih akan high sodium.

---

6. Fat Free Yogurt (it is not sugar free)
• Again, untuk menutupi rasa yang jadi kurang enak karena fat nya dibuang, maka biasanya sugar ditambahkan.
• Hati2 jika yogurt nya menggunakan pengental yang berbahaya.

---

7. Sugar Free Chocolate
• Heavenly right? Ok asal jangan makan terlalu banyak ya karena tetap mengandung fat & calories.

---

8. Fruit Drinks
Slogan: "Made with Real Fruit" sangatlah "triickky!!". Memang mungkin ada sedikit buah di jus tersebut, namun jika kamu baca nutrition facts nya, mostly kandungannya hanyalah gula, high-fructose corn syrup, or flavor-enhancing chemical additives.
Biasanya fruit drinks juga terlalu tinggi kalori.

Bah pour les socialistes, il faut prendre l'argent des riches pour le donner aux pauvres, sauf que la somme qu'ils dépensent fait marcher l'économie qu'à court terme, l'essentiel c'est de leur trouver du travail et non de leur donner de l'argent comme ca. Parce qu'en prenant 70% des salaires des entrepreneurs ou autre, ceux ci ferment leurs entreprises, et donc augmentent le taux de chômage, puis après c'est un cercle vicieux, certains partent à l'étranger, donc la société de consommation s'affaiblit, et ca entraîne une crise encore plus importante, voire la faillite comme la Grèce
Mais Hollande a pas comprit que le terme "égalité" dans la devise "liberté égalité fraternité" c'était devant la loi, et non au niveau des richesses. Donc il essaye de réduire les inégalités sociales, chose qui aggrave la situation. C'est évident qu'il y a des plus riche et des moins riches. Puis on est forcément le riche de quelqu'un et le pauvre de quelqu'un d'autre. Mais y a beaucoup de choses qu'Hollande n'a pas compris ou ignore tout simplement :)

So here's a picture of my schedule for the first semester
Im studying
1. Math 1A: this is a calculus class,a prerequisite to the business school
2. UGBA10: this is a undergrad business school, another prerequisite to the business school
3. L&s c5: this is an entrepreneurship class, where we get to hear several entrepreneurs from the valley speak about their business, come up with a business model of our own, and meet with an entrepreneur of our choice (elon musk anyone)
4. MCB 32: this is a basic biology class which is a university prerequisite. Its called 'drugs and the brain' and we study about how the brain reacts to different types of drugs and studd like that.
5. German r5a: this is a language class which also also a university prerequisite. We'll study about german authors and write about their works. Pretty basic.

---

Next sem, im taking the second part of the german class (German r5b), and Economics1A, alongside Statistics20, and maybe a computer science class for the lulz.

Hell NO!!! Mohon baca #SmartDieter di IG kami @Dapurfit. Topik ini sudah sangat sering kami bahas.
Supplement adalah supplement.. bukan replacement. Organ pencernaan kita di-design (oleh Tuhan.. atau oleh proses evolusi..) untuk mencerna Makanan, bukan Liquids. Alasan kedua adalah, makanan dicerna dan proses pencernaannya membakar kalori. Liquids tidak.
Meal replacement = tidak sehat & slowing down metabolism.

Non, je n'ai jamais eu cette question.
Et étrangement, j'ai une bonne image des entrepreneurs de pompes funèbres, parce que quand ces gens font bien leur métier, ils ont un grand rôle, un rôle d'accompagnement, un rôle tout de même primordial pour les familles.
Et à l'inverse, je ne peux pas encadrer les pompiers, mise à part de rares exceptions.
Parce que les trois quarts de ceux à qui j'ai pu avoir affaire étaient des connards prétentieux et imbus de leur fonction, alors qu'ils ont en principe pour mission de secourir et d'aider les gens qui leur demandent assistance.
Alors comme je dis, j'ai déjà croisé une ou deux exceptions, mais pour le reste, il n'y avait franchement pas grand chose à sauver. Ceci dit, j'ai quasiment toujours eu affaire à des pompiers assez jeunes, ce qui joue peut-être un peu. Les rares pompiers cools que j'ai croisés avaient eux tout de même un peu de bouteille.
Sinon, pour le reste, je ne vois pas trop. J'ai déjà croisé un huissier hyper sympa, un urgentiste infâme, enfin voilà, tout ça pour dire que je crois que c'est surtout à la gueule du client plus qu'au corps de métier en somme.
Peut-être que ça joue dans la balance quelque part.

I love my engineering team.

But let me tell you something else now?

---

I don't care about being "something". Entrepreneurs or Dreamers (working in any field or any company) don't care about being "something". They want to be "everything". I am sure you don't want to be a small player in the market. If you are ambitious, you should own the market.

---

You don't need a degree to learn things. (Again, I am not saying that getting a degree is a waste of time) I always say that learn from anywhere. You can learn from the internet, you can learn from a college, you can learn from a person. You can learn from a book. LEARNING is important.

---

I have met Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. You know what theses guys have to say about life? "There is no end to knowledge. Keep learning. Don't confine yourself to the bookish knowledge"

---

You know how many young people message me every single day on emails/facebook/ask.fm. They ask me 1 thing? Should we dropout of school or college to be successful? You know what I tell them? NO! Don't be an escapist. The idea is not to be an entrepreneur, or be a high school dropout. You should aim to be a leader of your field. LEARN from anywhere my friend. Education is very important.
