  At first I thought I lazy to update my resume.  Then somehow, I manage to get my CV updated and my current JD very impressive, I think. 

  So I happily put up in some online job search thingy.  And then I bo liao, browse thru the available job opening.  Every job that I browse thru, I somehow feel that I am not ready, I am not the right fit etc.  On the whole, I just very jittery about job search lor. 

  Am I just too comfy in my current job?  Or have I stopped looking for a very long time?

  Or I simply scared for nothing?

  if really cannot, you will find out instead of suspecting... which will cause you a lot of angst and regret later..

  Every job description that I browsed thru, I sorta knew what is going to get involved. So when I secured one, I said fark it, and just go for it. Think of the perks thats going to come with it.

  some people who in a company for donkey years they cannot leave the job many examples. forever stuck in a company only learn things and terms in the company like kings and queens but go out die die. Some job hop but rarely dare go interviews, always friend intorudce all the jobs must work with friends if not cannot survive alone. Job work a few more and go interview. You will become interview expert and every interview like eating rice.

  You are getting too comfortable in the present job.

  Should you have the basic requirements for a job, then apply for it and go for the interview if called up.

  Nothing to lose.

  if you are ready for the job and u are able to do it then go for it.

  however if the  job is way too dangerous and u have seen may people seriously injured around you then look for safer jobs in civilised areas.

  You know, I had the exact sentiments just like you to quit my current job and drive taxis. But thinking it through, i would probably regret the move my entire life, hence i just shelved it.

  piles at the backside is a job hazard for taxis. Not gd la. I guess anyone who has worked in a job for a long time, in their comfort zone would feel very afraid to venture out. But just try la, if you think u have had enough. Dun deny youself a better job out there.

  1) Trading is a zero sum game.

  2) Trading contributes zilch to the economy.

  3) Mathematically, the gain of all traders over the long run = the gain of the market over the long run.

  4) Trading forex means you are attempting to beat the market maker at his game. Do you think you have billions to fight with him/her?
