i did not design these ceramic-turtles..
instead, i bought them as samples from a fellow ceramic-manufacturer..
a strictly-manufacturing set-up which also imported & supplied ready-made moulds..
i bought plenty of their ready-made moulds during my formative years in ceramic-business..

i’ve just finally finished re-writing my unpublished 2003-why-talk-about-failures-articles and linked them into my accidental business journey, PART-1.. and now obligating myself into backtracking my thoughts, memories & experiences to start building up content for PART-2..

So this is why, as i turned 39 yesterday, i’m writing down my thoughts and recollecting past failures and successes, trying to recapture the energy and zest that seem to be eluding me the past few years in the midst of personal tribulations and continuously economic slowdowns. I know I can [...]
