The Sense of Kepepet


YOU just the sack from your job? If you have a goal so employers - do not want to pay people so forever - then you have reason to be grateful. For, this is the time you have a great time to start your business. 


Ten years ago, a patient Jaya Setiabudi not wait sack. He was himself the sack just four working days a year, and that is the first job after graduating college. He is a dream to become a strong businessman. He believed the friends who never says that he has the characteristics employers. What are the characteristics? 1. Do not like to wake up early 2. Do not like to be paid from hand to mouth; 3. dimarahi boss does not like. 


Thus, the new entrepreneurs start business itupun first. Capital money is not much, only 4.5 million savings. But he has another capital: network Pertemanan (he took the spare parts business, the trust suppliers of goods (he worked in the purchase and he would never be corrupted or play on a receipt), and The Sense of trapped! Jaya was calling his father that he is ready. Ready to do? Ready to go bankrupt, and he really is ready three months later when he experienced the first bangkrutnya! 


Jaya Berhentikah after the bankruptcy? No. Indeed, it can be concluded that loss, gullible, the wall is a vitamin that makes the resistance banting. He already proved that. Efforts to develop, advance, and chop a variety of areas. 


I believe that failure is the food required. There is a study of four young American millionaire who achieve success in the age of 35 years, a very young age. Their average of seventeen engage in business before finding a business that can bring them to the peak of success. Note that: seventeen TIMES! You can read the story in a book, Failing Forward John C. Maxwell. "They continue to try and find something to replace the klop for them," said Maxwell. 


Surely not a failure of the search. Not that the failure to make proud. But, never a failure of fear to keep trying. I believe, if we try then two possibilities: to fail or succeed. That's certainly better than not to try because there is no possibility, except one thing: we sure do not. How would succeed, if it does not try!

Not all employers like Jaya. He has the spirit to share. He believed that the spirit and the dream became entrepreuner alias must be transmitted. To me he never said that this lack of entrepreneurs, not to zero the percentage of the coma. In fact, he quoted Ciputra, should be four percent of the population of a country should be moving if the economy as a businessman want to delay the country. 


Jaya does not stay silent. For those who call themselves as a provocateur entrepreuner - I think this is a very suitable for him - he makes a variety of forums for the beginners meeting, the name Entrepreuner Ascosiation (EA). I never follow one of the meetings. A meeting which is very empowering and transmit enthusiasm to become entrepreneurs respite. First place is always moved. Usually chosen place of business one of the members. In the meeting that it is very possible business cooperation-cooperation (my time is given once a business card for sablon plastic packaging), joint venture capital, and help each other solve the impasse business, as well as stories from mencerahkan steps business members who have taken EA and successful. Things outside of business by the person who solved berkompeten. If there are new tax rules, then invited people from the Tax Office. I do not know whether Kadin, APINDO or other business associations have to do such things. 


"What is certain now many members and so EA is drawn so that other members of the association," said Jaya, to me one day. That means, provocation Jaya successful. And the only quiet, as the provocateur he is not running out to provoke the intellect as much as possible. End of years ago a book published by Gramedia Publisher. This is the moment new spirit of trying to transmit it. Arouse a book entitled: THE POWER OF trapped! 


I had to follow the birth of the book since the prin-prinan. My consultant did not become a kind of official recognition of the book, special entries - ah more appropriate Jaya reinforce the idea itself - about how the illustrations will be added. Jaya is a fact already know how the book would be translated. We involve Dalbo - Batam Post cartoonist - to use ilustrasinya. Jaya who have a good sense of art (note the cover of a book bak movie posters, this is he and his team who have their own ideas) is very like the cartoons tug Dalbo.

Stories on the more I write the introduction to Jaya's 116 page book on this. Not thick. But I guarantee the content is a move, and of reading is not enough. "Reading this book," Jaya said, "will not change your life. But, you must mempraktikkannya ... "Yes, so it should be. Senada with the title, I would conclude that what is transmitted Jaya Sense of trapped. That is the trust that he can be a most powerful motivator to encourage people to become successful entrepreneurs. If you are not trapped, then you must make as if you are trapped. 


Sentence-sentence Jaya in this book because it sugestif write directly from the experience. Men born in Semarang in 1973 this record have a knock Rp1, 8 billion at the age of 31 years. Think, it is concerned that the situation really is not concerned? Just like when he diwisuda as a bankrupt businessman first, he would not stop, turn it rationally. Work again? Or search for more investors? The first option is clearly not interesting for him, although in fact it is very easy to get. That step backwards. If it is select it, I hakkulyakin, sixth child of seven brothers will not have this company as seven at this time. Ten years after he sack himself, any business away from the light steel construction industry, a distributor of spare parts, network retail store food and drink, entrepreneurial consultant, consultant to the retail business. 


So, you can pray that your company does not expel you. 2009 was a year of weight. Singapore only foster the growth target minus 2.5 percent, due to the economic crisis in the United States. Slack, order down. And remember, 70 export companies in Batam objective is Singapore. That means the dismissal is not avoided. However, if you sack it, do not lament. This means that your opportunities to fly bak spring. You surely know the spring, right? If not dipepet, when not pressed, the spring will not stretch and that was the cause regangan thrust. Tuing! Melentinglah! 


PHK letter, I think you can read as a letter of notification that you received by the business world as entrepreneurs. Do not consider it as the trumpet of Resurrection trompet your life. And do not forget to read the book The Power of the trapped until I write the article is printed three times, 13 thousand copies have been terbeli, and is certainly more than the number of people who are contagious passion entrepreneuship Jaya. In the book there is an e-mail address is, its web site, also the phone number selularnya. Far as one I, as a provocateur Jaya very stingy for not science. ***
