Project X

This thing that I am onto right now, lets call it Project X, is really tiring my brain out. I’ve been thinking about it non stop since last week. I could not sleep well for two nights! Its not that I am worried, on the contrary, I am really excited about it. I’ve been thinking about how I can improve it, make it a success. On the other hand, what will I do if something goes wrong. I’ve been running the numbers over and over again. It looks too easy. Too good to be true! So to be safe, I listed down all the risk factors and its mitigation plans. Thanks to The Company for this training!

I think I am ready to conclude. This is an opportunity that I must not miss. I can only meet with the necessary parties next week as I will not make a decision or negotiate without the presence of hubby, or at least with someone else with me or I will be out numbered. At presence there are 2 partners involved and I will be negotiating against them. I need to push the price down further. I managed to reduce it by 10% so far. None the less, the initial offered price was already good! I have nothing to lose by accepting this 10% discount.

Because this sort of crept up on me, I have to do a crash course on certain areas to proceed with this. Thank goodness I will only meet with the parties next week. This gives me time to find out more about what I need to know. I just hope that they don’t go behind my back and let go the opportunity to someone else before informing me.

Wish me luck!
