$100!!

Just closed a student :-) Not only is it my largest sale till date its worth more than all my previous transactions put together. Which is kinda sad if you think about it. I had so many hopes and dreams for this and it never did take off the way I had hoped it would. The Big Boss Man recently told me that the one thing he saw lacking in me was "Fire in my Belly" the desire to meet deadlines. I was more laid back more content to let things happen and he said that that way, I would never be able to achieve much no matter which field I chose. In some ways, I had already been wondering if that was true about me and this direct pointing out only confirmed it for me. I looked back on the website venture or any other venture and saw that each time i started something, I never followed it through. I was content to let things happen.

This has got to change. After all, even the $100 student hasnt paid up. Only promised to.

Prototyping Prototyping

So I finally get my hands on one model. Its a beauty!! I've shown it off to a few people as well as to the lady who's helping me with the import tax part and even she liked it!! Minor hitches with respect to hardware required ( power adaptor, card reader) but both should soon be sorted out. Once all this gets sorted, then only Marketing and Sales is left. Wishful thinking na :-D

On the other hand, for the other company i thought prototyping and then manufacturing would be easier than this. However things hardly seem to have improved. I dont even have a single prototype and that's pretty sad considering it shouldnt have take so long. Its a pretty simple thing so why on earth am i taking so long??

Many things to work.
