MBA and life?
It's been a while since i've last posted. I've been troubled with THE question lately.. what to do with life.. and apparently u can do a course on it! offered after milking every cent of your worth, by none other than the revered Harvard Business School. An unlikely candidate for such a course? see an article by the Financial Times in Money and morals clash.
I doubt i'm going to spend more than $100k on the course, and seriously doubt that they'll even consider my application, but to find such a question posed by such a prestigious business school has its consolation. It does remind us that whatever we do in life, this basic question will always challenge us. We may stand up to its challenge, or let it pass us by without putting up a fight. but the question will remain. the question is as certain as death itself. in the face of death, everyone is the same. race, culture, language, religion, will be humbled by it. just look at the diversity of the people mourning after the tsunami victims on its first anniversary.
my.. such a gloomy outlook on the year ahead. and i thought going out shopping before christmas may get me into the festive mood.. until i picked up the book "Before you quit your job"... i haven't had the courage to read the book yet.. i've got a week of holidays ahead of me to read it. this will be such an "interesting" holiday season...
Of course, i will not impose such negativity on my readers, so i sincerely wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
