Over the past few days I have been jumping back and forth on the idea of me having to either do my MBA or get a job at Gulf Air.
And the case presented caused a lot of mental debate within me because on one hand I wanted so badly to have a job so I can start earning my own income instead of being a 27 year old shmuck who still lives at his parents home, taking monthly pocket money for his wage. And I still don't like the idea.
On the other hand, I also wanted to do my MBA so I can further develop my certification qualification from a B.A. (Hons) to an MBA in business administration. And I was already having a bad time with my past experience to stay in my previous jobs because everytime I started one I would fall sick and in the end resign to pursue health assurance. Not a pretty thing at all.
Some of you think that I should pursue the two together. Well, I would, but the thing is that either the MBA or a job would require full comittment from me and having either at the same time would cause an un-needed distraction and my energy to be droughted.
And since an MBA kind of gives you better options at choosing a career in the long term but a job is something that you could get kinda 'married to'. I have come to an important decision.
The pursuit of excellence is not merely a need but rather should be a habit.
That being said; I will be pursuing excellence through obtaining an MBA degree.
Anyone want to slap me?
Good decision, that way you can put more time on MBA. Where do you plan to do it, in Oman or abroad?
ReplyDeletethere's a college here in Oman that's delivering the full MBA program in affiliation with the University of Strathlclyde. I plan to take it up there.
ReplyDeleteI hear its an excellent place to obtain one, plus the fact that its fully supported by the Central Bank of Oman..
@ DevilishAngel: that's what I plan to do but not in finance. in general business administration.. because that's all that's available right now
