easter celebrations!!

2 great services on a saturday and i can't wait for the final easter service later at 11.00am!! this easter celebration also marks a benchmark for me, in serving as a security personnel.

i was pretty stretched by Bro Kok Yew when he decided to get me as his runner. he taught me so many stuffs that is extremely easy, yet 100% effective. he shared this with me, "to be an IC, you got to think like an IC"

its so true!! a leader is someone who takes charge and brings the people from point A to point B. a follower simply follows instructions and does whatever is given to him, anymore than that, they're unable to cope.

a leader looks after his man and is accountable for them too. he has to know their specific locations and assign them with duties. if a leader is unable to do that, then he wouldn't be able to release the full potential of the group assigned to him.

a leader, as an overall view, has to know his people well and has to work together with his people. knowing their strengths and flaws, the group depends on one another to work and on the leader's command, they establish.

a leader must be able to cover the basics even with little resources. a leader knows how to adjust with the situation and handle with sensitivity.

a leader must think fast, act fast and know whats going on, only than decisions can be made, risks can be taken and problems can be solved at the fastest possible time. without these available, its tough and one wrong move could cost everyone badly.

thank God i was given the chance and i was put as second IC for east sector. bro samuel threw me 3 other security personnels and told me that i'm in-charge of them. so bearing in mind what i just learnt, and had learnt before, i assigned them and gave them specific instructions.

thank God nothing serious happened and there wasn't much hipcups. but i believe that there's still room for improvement and so much more for me to learn from the leaders and security personnels.

thank God that Bro Kok Yew noticed me and kept me by his side during the first service, else i wouldn't have learnt so much from him.

from now on, i shall not think like a normal security, but like a security IC.
