Hi guys, this page is still undergoing a facelift in order to serve YOU better. In the mean time you can visit http://www.merryriana.org for my official website, and http://www.merryriana.org/blog to read my blog.

Thank you for your patience

“Success consists of doing the common things of life uncommonly well”

Many people wonder how they can become successful. This quote explains what becoming successful means in the most simple terms. Truly successful people have integrity, a strong work ethic, a desire to succeed, and tenacity to keep working even when it seems that things

aren’t going well. They don’t give up easily, rather they keep moving forward regardless of the number of times they are knocked back.

I can’t believe 365 days have passed. Today is already 1st January 2011.

2010 was definitely a great year for me. I still remember on 1st January 2010 I wrote in my blog that 2010 will be a breakthrough year for me. True enough, indeed 2010 was a remarkable year for me. Here are some reasons why

1. Being involved in many Women-related activities

2. Launched my very first Women-Only Programme – ‘Women Extraordinaire’  and ‘I am Woman’ workshop

3. Created positive impact for many people on various topics that I shared on my public seminars

4. Contributed back to society by sharing my thoughts and experiences at various Policy Forums in Singapore and also through my non-profit intiative, Project: Pay It Forward, for many schools and universities.  

5. Being blessed with tons of  M edia Coverage. I was featured every single month in various newspapers and magazines. Amazing!

6. Not to forget, being invited to talk LIVE on-air in various  R adio Shows

7. Received numerous awards too, My Paper Executive Look Readers’ Choice Award 2010, LG Life’s Good Ambassador, and Great Women of Our Time Award 2010.

8.  Being a firm believer in continuous learning, I set aside time to learn new skill, which is definitely important. I was very fortunate that my friends: Fabian Lim, Simon Leung & Jo Han Mok invited me and my husband to sit in their courses. In total, I invested 9 full days of my life learning the real secret of Internet Marketing from the Internet Guru. Great Stuff !!  

I also took an Image Certification Course. I’m now officially a Certified Image Consultant.

I teach color analysis, body analysis, face analysis, make up, and many others in my ‘I Am Woman’ public workshop.

9. Had fun with my Dream Team in MRO, Merry Riana Organization. :)

10. Enjoyed a long holiday with my family, my in-laws and of course, my dearest husband.

11. And last but not least, I’m proud that I was able to nurture my daughter, spent & enjoyed much time with her, and watched her grow with my own eyes, every single day.

There are many other great moments in 2010. It is definitely impossible for me to list all one by one. (You can refer to my previous blog post if you want) 

Oups… I almost forget one more great moment in my 2010. Someone actually painted a picture of me on Canvas. And that someone is my talented friend, Ocean Wang :)

Watch this video to see her beautiful painting 

I thank God for many amazing experiences that I had in 2010. And I thank YOU for walking this journey together with me. My loyal friends and followers from my Blog, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.

2011 will be a MIRACLE YEAR !  I believe there will be even more breakthroughs, more opportunities, more friends and much more Life’s Good Moments to experience & enjoy. 

I’m fully prepared for all that.

At this moment, I’ve already in the midst of some interesting and exciting projects. Can’t wait to finish and officially launch them to all of you

Once again,

HAPPY NEW YEAR, my friends !

May 2011 be a year full of joy and blessings for you and your family
