I must be the luckiest girl in the world, ever.
All through my undergraduate days, I've sometimes looked back and my life and lamented at my lack of achievement. Sometimes, I can't seem to fall asleep at night, spending hours reflecting on what I should have done, what I could have done better...
I end up sitting through the night, trying to think of ways to "turn my life around" and configure plans to reassure myself that I'll be fine.
My lack of success, is perhaps more relative than absolute... But it has always been a concern I wanted to proactively address.
Which was why I was really honoured to be given a chance to prove myself in this young women leader's forum. An event so exclusive, only a few lucky souls like myself were given the chance to attend. So far, I've attended 2 forums, and sat through dialogues with community and business female leaders. Hearing about their success stories were deeply inspiring, exceptionally empowering to say the least. And I walk out of every session brimming with hope that perhaps, I'll succeed one day. I really got to thank FASS for putting me through this. It's only the beginning, but it's already given me so much hope and faith in the future, a potentially life-changing experience.
Best still, after reviewing my application and after reviewing my performance at the dialogue sessions, I was accepted into the mentoring program and the Executive Committee! They just informed me yesterday!!! And till this moment, I'm still in a state of disbelief! Where else can you get a chance to get a CEO of a bank or a prominent community leader as mentors?
AHHHHH! Please pardon my excitement people. I really wanted to share my joy!
Finally, finally, finally, I felt I've achieved something my parents would be truly proud of.
