#Part 2 Passion




Passion itulah yang kadang digamangkan diantara banyak orang. Bekerja karena kebutuhan hidup dan realitas, dengan gaji yang kadang pas-pasan. Yah itulah pilihan banyak orang. Mungkin sama kayak gue yang notabene nguli dan masih jadi babu orang plus muter otak buat cari sampingan bisnis travel gue. Sekarang gue amat sangat percaya apa apa yang orang kebanyakan katakan. Ikutin passion lo, maka duit bakal ngikutin. Yap excatly 100% itu bener banget.  Di part ini gue akan cerita kisah gue aja, Dan keajaiban apa itu namanya doa dan kerja keras.

Bangun bisnis itu gak gampang broh. Laksana buat sistem dan otak lo selalu berputar tiap saat. Dimana harus buat skema penjualan, sistem operasional, market research, dan analisa kompetitor. Bagaikan dari bangun sama tidur lo mikirin banyak hal. Yap kadang hidup banyak orang bergantung di pundak lo. Whatever the business is.. Make people believe it is not sure. Apalagi travel gue yang masih newbie dan independent. Semua mulai dari nol.

Tapi gue dapet satu hal, jadi pengusaha itu gak akan pernah berhenti belajar. Dimana akan membuat otak lo selalu tune-in dan berkembang terus. Singkat kata penuh tantangan. Untuk aktualisasi diri pas banget. Jadi pengusaha totally buat orang-orang di usia muda gue sangat-sangat salut luar biasa yang totalitas dan nyawa mereka ada disitu. But gue masih setengah-setengah. Living cost di Jakarta mahal jenderal. wkwkwk.... Sometimes lo harus muter otak buat cari sampingan kanan-kiri,

Pengalaman gue bangun bisnis travel dari nol ke satu alias tanpa modal sama sekali bukan mudah. Kadang enak kebanyakan orang. Enak ya lo jalan-jalan mulu tiap minggu. Bisa kesana kesini. Dalam hati gue senyum aja. Cuma jawab saya kerja dan service orang. Kita ini babu woiiii...hehehe...Dimana jasa lo mengumakan klien dulu, baru urusin lo. Ada manajemen kualitas yang harus dijaga, memuaskan orang banyak, menjaga kepercayaan dan komitmen. But always true that consumen is a king. Mereka tidak akan pernah mau disalahkan, Merasa sudah membayar jadi harus dapat pelayanan oke. very true !!

Follow your passion, is like driving your mind where wanna go. Lo yang nentuin mau kemana, dan menjalani hidup seperti apa. Mengikuti passion artinya lo berdiri diatas kaki sendiri, tidak bergantung hidup kepada orang lain alias ngerepotin. Tapi pada jalannya lo harus menjaga hubungan dengan banyak orang. Why ? Because of the success of business depends on networking and relation. So baik-baik deh sama orang ya.

Ngikutin passion bukan berarti lo jalanin bisnis atau kehidupan tanpa rencana. Success is a planning, mix with action, and let God does the rest. Bisnis dengan jutaan profit bukan tanpa kerja keras. Itu usaha tanpa kenal lelah dan dilakukan secara konsisten dan terus menerus. Dan berdoa pada akhirnya manusia bukan apa-apa tanpa keajaiban Tuhan. Kadang profit double digit yang bisa berkali-kali lipat gaji bulanan lo buat mupeng buat hidup hedon. But hey ingat roda berputar gak selamanya kita kaya dan hidup senang. So berhematlah, hidup sewajarnya, dan putarlah profitmu untuk investasi.

Percaya deh gak ada yang namanya sia-sia kalo usaha. Lo hanya butuh sedikit usaha lebih keras dari orang kebanyakan dan sabar lebih panjang. Penantian panjang selalu berbuah manis dengan proses yang matang. So decide what you wanna do being a worker or business owner or half worker half business owner like me. But remind the most important is time management and stay focus.

The Power Imbalance When a Diplomat Dates You

  I never imagined that I would find myself entangled in a relationship with a man who held the title of diplomat . There is something inherently powerful about that word — a sense of nobility, intelligence, and integrity. For someone like me, who has always prided herself on being independent, educated, and emotionally resilient, the connection initially felt affirming. I thought, perhaps, I had finally found someone who could walk beside me as an equal. But what I didn’t realize at the time was how easily a title can conceal deeper truths — emotional manipulation , power imbalances, and an unspoken hierarchy that slowly erodes one’s sense of reality. Our story began online, like many modern romances. Joel Runnels introduced himself as a diplomat stationed in Central Asia , working in human rights advocacy . From the beginning, our conversations were intense and intellectually stimulating. He spoke about his work with disabled communities, policy reform, and global diplomacy. The...

When He’s a Different Person Behind Closed Doors

  You’ve probably never heard of Joel Runnels PhD — but in certain circles in Minnesota, he’s considered a quiet hero. A legislative affairs director who has dedicated decades of his professional life to disability rights and working for Minnesota Council on Disability , Joel is the kind of man who shows up at public hearings, writes compassionate policy briefs, and speaks with moral authority about equity, justice, and the need to protect society’s most vulnerable. He works closely with the Deaf community , disabled children, and families who rely on state policy to survive. But I knew another Joel. One who existed far away from the polished conference tables and media headlines. One whose mask would fall the moment the doors closed. And I’m finally ready to talk about him. This isn’t an exposé for the sake of revenge. This is my truth — and it’s also a mirror. Because too often, the people we are told to admire and trust the most are the very ones causing silent destruction behin...

When the Mask Falls: What I Learned After Being Lied to, Cheated On, and Gaslighted by a Diplomat

There’s a unique kind of heartbreak that comes not just from personal betrayal, but from betrayal by someone the world sees as respectable — someone who commands admiration, speaks with poise, and lives behind the diplomatic veil of charm and composure. I never thought I would find myself entangled in the emotionally devastating web of deceit, manipulation, and betrayal — especially not with a man trained to handle international relations, negotiations, and cultural sensitivity. But behind the polished exterior, I discovered a pattern of behavior that had been repeated many times before. A man who had fathered five children with two different women, leaving behind broken trust, confusion, and emotional damage. This is not a story told out of bitterness. It is told out of truth, growth, and a deep desire to help others recognize warning signs — and to choose themselves, every single time. The Charisma Trap He was everything that looked good on paper: well-educated, articulate, intellige...
