Making my own home furniture line. Still in progress,
seriously I dunno if it will be successful or not.
But I really wanna give it a try.
One day, on an unavoidable occasion, my competitor came up
to me...
Comp: I heard you are starting your own line?
Me: Yeah, just trying
Comp: Who do you hire?
Me: People from Java ---> this's a very mainstream
answer!
Comp: It will not work, trust me, you better stop it
You cannot beat
the pro-s. Just stop it. You will lose money
Me: Ugh, yeah, you are right. I just wanna finished what I
started.
Comp: Just don't start your own line. You won't survive. [he
kept on repeating few times]
Me: Thank you for your advice
I don't believe that my line will be completed flunk. It
will work, I just dunno how smooth it is gonna be.
I need to stay low, no point picking a cat-fight with the dude. Even if I win this argument, the only thing that changed would be our sour biz relation. Don't wanna waste my breath.

As I said before, I just wanna test the water. If I can do
it, why not.
The competitor, was trying to sink me every now and then,
VERBALLY.
Here is what I wonder, I can see how upset he is when he
asked me about the new line, he even complained why we rebuilt our shop (It was destroyed during earthquake, rebuilding is a common sense)
And I can see how satisfied he is when I said, “Yeah...
maybe it won't work.”
The things is, everything is said verbally...
When he said things won't work, my product doesn't
immediately gone to trash can
When I said, maybe it won't work.... It doesn't mean that
the production immediately ceased
We had tonnes of similar conversations, where he asked me to
just stop trying, step back and even... stop selling at all. He had bad business last year, he put the blame on me.
I was stuck for days with this dude. On each conversation,
he deliberately, without shame, wanted me to suffer.
Again, all words coming from his mouth. Just random voices
coming from his mouth.
Looking from another angle, I do realized how silly it is.

But then, I also realized, I might be in the same boat as
him... in the case of jealousy and sensitivity.
I find it very annoying when I see b*tches showing
themselves off on FB. Of course, I am not stupid enough to be bitter on FB. For
example: When I see the B writing, "Look at my post-pregnancy body, oh so
fat!" tagged in a super tight dress pic. It doesn't immediately changed me into a
fat whale. Those writings won't change anyone's body. Why do I feel jealous and
annoyed? WHY???!!!
I am totally aware of my feeling, I just can't help it.
