PFL BCA - Valuable Person by MIC

Its me on the bus with my name tag.
See the tagline: VALUABLE PERSON
TRY NOT TO BECOME A PERSON OF SUCCESS BUT RATHER TRY TO BECOME A MAN OF VALUE

As one part of our PFL Training, it is compulsory for us to join the Valuable Person Training at Lor In Hotel, Sentul. The training will only be held for 2 days 1 night but I guarantee that you will get to learn a lot.

On the D day, you will need to be at Wisma Asia 2 by 6.30 AM latest or you will be left behind.

The journey only took 1-1,5 hours. It is quite close by.

This picture is taken the moment we enter the Hotel.
It is still on construction progress. It is still dusty and look incomplete.
Anyway, it is not a uniform given by the committee, we are buying the same polo shirt as our class 'code'.

We are allowed to bring our phone with us but I was too busy socializing and eating and taking selfies that I forgot to take picture of the hotel itself. I will put some of my selfies pictures, tho.

My overall impression of the training is that:

It was not exactly and eyeopening as I have personally know most of the material but it was quite a reassurance of the values that I have held.

The trainers' efforts and speeches are genuinely heartfelt.

They let us know by examples. Some of the examples are their own experience and some they let us experience it ourselves. I often felt their sincerity through those stories.

I learn to be thankful for every little things that I have; especially those blessings that I have taken for granted all this while.

This is the sort of training that every person should go to!

You will get a lot of things on this training. It was called experimental training. It will taught you how to be grateful for everything.

• For things that we often taken for granted like our eyes, limbs, and voice. Remember that God was never obliged to give us a complete body with good eyes to see the world,  voice to talk, or good ear to listen but He did. That is a blessing that we usually neglect. 

• For our parents and siblings. That we are still be given time and chances to be with them and share our happiness with them. That they are still alive and well is a blessing that we need to be thankful for, everyday.
• For our job and our financial situation. We might not be happy with our current job. We might be tired of routine and stress from our job. But we still need to be thankful that we still have a job where there are thousands of jobless people, dreaming for a chance to be in our current position. We need to be happy for what we are paid for and instead of complaining and being idle, we need to work harder to get an even higher pay and position in the future. Like I said in my previous post, "It doesn't matter where you start, what matters is how you will finish." =)

• For our dreams and hope. "We need to look down to learn how to be grateful, but we also have to look up to know that we can still thrive." this is one of the sentence that I have heard/read somewhere and it has left a mark in my brain ever since. We should be thankful that we are still be allowed to dream and hope and that we are taking all the efforts we have to make it into realization. We must not surrender to our fate but we have to fight to overcome it. 



A famous inspiring quote by our first president, Ir Soekarno:
"Place your dream as high as the sky... because if you fall, you will fall among the stars"

• And more things that I couldn't mentioned one by one.

There are lots of surprises and experiences that you should experienced for yourself and I will not let myself spoiling your excitement by giving too much information.

What you should bring:

• Toiletries (the hotels amenities is limited)
• Tissues (do not ask why. Just trust me and bring it)
• Towels, we have a hard time getting towels. We waited until over 8 pm to get the towel.
• Comfortable shoes or flat shoes, no slippers. There are some outdoor activities.
• Snacks for supper if you usually had one.
• Water bottle (I am a heavy water drinker.. so...)
• Money, at least bring Rp 100,000,- (trust me, you will need this)
• Clothes (2 or more Jeans trousers - no shorts, T-shirts/Polo shirts as needed, others as needed)
• Hair ties for you, girls with long hair.
• Hairdryer!!
• Jacket or cardigans (outdoor activities, remember?)
• Personal meds if you think you will need them.
• Do not need to bring any stationary, it will be provided.
• Open mind and ready to learn mindset.

You are ready to go.
Enjoy!

Oh and we are given a certificate too!!
Will upload the picture of the certificate later.
