Dear Dina, Zairi, Cer dan Nova. Sore ini, aku duduk ditempat yang sama dengan kursi yang sama seperti yang kita lakukan dua minggu yang lalu setelah Kelas Usaha Mikro. Terimakasih sudah sejauh ini mempercayai apa yang sangat sulit dipercya oleh orang pada umumnya. Terimakasih sudah bergabung sebagai tim di Kelas Entrepreneur. Dina, kau adalah orang pertama yang mengakui dan rela mengorbankan waktu dan pikiran untuk sekedar percaya dengan mimpi yang dianggap bodoh, bahkan oleh orang terdekat ku sendiri. Ketika aku menyampaikan bahwa aku ingin membantu banyak orang mengembangkan diri mereka, dan membantu diriku sendiri untuk memahami makna hidup dan kosep ketuhanan, kau adalah sahabat yang datang dan diminta mendekat oleh Allah. Meskipun cukup butuh waktu yang lama untuk menyampaikan maksud dan tujuan kita membuat Kelas Entrepreneur, sekarang aku sudah cukup yakin bahwa kau memahami mungkin 90 atau bahkan 100 persen tujuan kita. Aku akan banyak mengandalkan dirimu di perjuangan ini nantinya. Zairi, meskipun kita sudah saling mengenal lama tapi kita belum pernah telalu jauh untuk mencoba saling memahami lebih dalam. Aku merasa bangga dengan semua perjuangan yang telah zairi lakukan untuk menghidupi mimpi mu dan bertahan dengan melewati masa sulit dengan cara mu sendiri. Memilih untuk melewatkan kesempatan “nyaman” dari kehidupan yang selalu menggoda dan memilih jalan yang kau sebut “masa depan” yang telah kau definisikan sendiri. Zai, kakak melihat diri kakak disebagian dari perjuangan hidup mu. Tiga tahun yang lalu, kakak mengharamkan diri kakak untuk bekerja dengan orang lain. Kakak percaya bahwa menjadi Entrepreneur akan jauh lebih berfaedah untuk diri kakak dan orang lain. Kau tahu itu zai, konsep merubah dunia menjadi lebih baik akan sangat masuk akal diwujudkan saat kita menjadi Entrepreneur. Tapi konsep kakak untuk membuat bisnis sendiri dan tidak bekerja untuk orang lain terkalahkan hanya dalam waktu 3 bulan setelah lulus sidang. Kakak tenggelam didunia pekerjaan yang bila kakak tidak hati-hati bisa menenggelamkan mimpi-mimpi kakak seperti teman yang lain. Zairi mungkin tahu seberapa sulit kita harus berjuang melawan kebutuhan dunia yang harus dipenuhi saat kita mengejar mimpi menjadi Entrepreneur? Kau mungkin memiliki cerita yang tidak akan habis diceritakan dalam 1 hari untuk membahasnya. Disaat kita benar-benar merasa sendiri melawan ketakutan akan “bagaimana hidup besok hari” “apa yang harus dilakukan kali ini” “bisakah kita membahagiakan orang tua dengan cara ini”. Kakak hanya ingin membantu orang-orang seperti kita, ada ribuan bahkan jutaan orang lain diluar sana yang sama seperti kita, kakak ingin menujukan kepada mereka bahwa dalam membangun bisnis dan menjadi Entrepreneur itu bisa direncanakan. Kakak tidak ingin ketakutan semacam itu membuat mimpi mereka, teman-teman lain yang baru ingin mencoba menjadi Entrepreneur hilang dan hancur, dengan alasan itulah Kelas Entrepreneur hadir. Untuk membantu diri kakak sendiri untuk menjadi entrepreneur, dan untuk membantu teman-teman lain tetap memegang erat dan berlari mewujudkan mimpi mereka. Seperti halnya harapan kakak akan zairi yang menemukan mimpi zairi dan mewujudkanya. Kita harus membantu mereka, dan yakinlah Kelas Entrepreneur akan dapat membantu kita juga nanti, baik secara materi dan moral. Cer, kau adalah orang yang tidak pernah abang sangka akan hadir dan tertarik dengan misi ini. Ketika abang mengetahui bahwa cer adalah orang yeng memiliki mimpi untuk membangun venture capital suatu hari nanti, disitulah abang mulai memahami bahwa kita saling membutuhkan satu sama lain untuk belajar. Terkadang abang cemburu dengan semua kesibukan cer yang dilakukan saat ini, namun disitu abang juga merasa bangga saat mengetahui Cer jarang sekali bahkan mungkin belum pernah tidak amanah dengan tugas , kau bisa menghandle waktu dengan sangat baik. Tapi ini akan sangat jauh berbeda saat cer memasuki babak baru dalam hidup yang menuntut banyak hal, abang hanya berharap cer dapat memutuskan hal yang tepat saat itu terjadi. Seperti yang pernah kita bicarakan, pergerakan Kelas Entreprneur ini dapat menjadi bisnis social yang sangat besar. Saat ini, abang butuh bantuan cer untuk menyempurnakan pergerakan ini, mempersiapkan nya sesempurna mungkin hingga benar-benar layak untuk di komersilkan. Hi Nova, perempuan terkecil yang terakhir bergabung. Kakak terkejut dengan kemampuan nova untuk mengikuti pola pikir kakak. Nova bahkan mampu mengikuti tulisan yang membuat kakak tidak perlu mengkoreksi apapun, bahkan merasa itu kakak tulis sendiri. Maaf bila Nova pikir Kelas Entrepreneur belum siap untuk menampung ide-ide nova atau malah Nova merasa Kelas Entrepreneur dibawah ekspektasi Nova sesaat sebelum bergabung. Jujur kakak sering merasa bingung sendiri untuk mengelola ini, Nova tahu seberapa besar kebahagiaan kakak saat kita melakukan diskusi materi di Dangau Datuk minggu kemarin? Kakak merasa kehadiran kalian dan keseriusan untuk mebahas materi menjadi poin penting yang harus kita terapkan di minggu-minggu berikutnya. Hal yang perlu Nova tahu (dan mungkin juga zairi) bahwa sebelum kakak memulai Kelas Entrepreneur ini, kakak telah menemukan keyakinan yang sangat besar untuk peluang dan arah kemana Kelas ini akan dijalankan, hanya saja belum memiliki kesempatan untuk membagikanya dengan kalian berdua. Hal tersebut berupa fakta, alasan, pembuktian, dan peluang yang bisa kakak lihat dan akhirnya kakak yakini sebagai tujuan hidup dan misi Kelas Entrepreneur . Di Indonesia yang sebesar ini, dengan berjuta-juta unit bisnis yang dijalankan oleh orang-orang di Negara ini, terdapat lebih dari 56,000,0000 orang yang menjalankan bisnis di skala mikro (sangat kecil). Mereka adalah orang yang bermimpi membangun bisnis dan kerajaan kekayaan mereka masing-masing. Mereka ingin menciptakan bisnis yang semakin berkembang, namun mayoritas dari mereka tidak mengetahui cara untuk mengembangkan bisnisnya. Belum lagi orang-orang seperti kita, mungkin ribuan atau malah jutaan mahasiswa dan siswa yang baru lulus atau bakalan lulus yang bercita-cita mendirikan bisnis, namun hanya memiliki semangat bisnis, dibutakan oleh semnagat entrepreneurship, sehingga mereka terbakar dan “menumbur tembok kesalahan”, membuat kesalahan-kesalahan bodoh dan akhirnya menyerah dan memilih untuk mengubur mimpi mereka. Belum ada orang yang benar-benar peduli dengan mereka, belum ada orang yang ingin benar-benar membantu mereka. Kakak yakin Pendidikan Entrepreneurship adalah penididkan yang mereka butuhkan. Memang benar bahwa calon Entrepreneur selayaknya dan paling bagusnya belajar dari Entrepreneur lain, Calon pengusaha yang bermimpi untuk memiliki Perusahaan Besar harus belajar dari Pengusaha yang memiliki korporasi besar. Tapi, lihatlah, seberapa banyak pengusaha besar yang peduli untuk membagikan pendidikan Entrepreneurship terintegrasi untuk calon pengusaha lain, untuk lebih dari 56 juta orang yang sedang berusaha mati-matian dibisnisnya? Hanya 1 dari sepuluh, atau mungkin 1 dari seratus. Kakak memiliki mimpi Kelas Entrepreneur mampu membantu mereka, kita mampu menjadi solusi bagi mereka, membagikan pendidikan Entrepreneur untuk membuat mereka berkembang, dengan cara apa? Dengan cara menemukan kurikulum terbaik untuk memberikan pendidikan selayaknya seperti “pendidikan hidup” yang ditempuh oleh mereka yang telah sukses. Berat? Pasti. Karena kita sendiri belum pernah menempuh “pendidikan hidup” yang seperti itu. Tapi apakah mungkin untuk mempelajarinya? Sangat mungkin. Kalian tahu mengapa kakak begitu tertarik membaca buku biographi pengusaha sukses? Karena disitu terdapat ratusan trik dan tips yang dibagikan entrepreneur suskes yang mampu kita jadikan pedoman untuk menciptakan kurikulum, menyaringnya, menyusunnya, dan menguji cobanya di Kelas yang sedang kita jalankan saat ini. Hal itu yang telah kakak mulai dari 2 atau 3 tahun yang lalu, dan masih kakak jalani hingga saat ini. Mengapa ini harus dilakukan? Karena kakak tahu bagaiamana rasa sakitnya dalam memeperjuangkan mimpi besar. Kakak berharap kita dapat mengubah hidup orang satu persatu dengan membantu mereka mewujudkan mimpi besar mereka dengan pendidikan Entrepreneurship yang kita ciptakan. Tapi, kita harus bantu diri kita sendiri terlabih dahulu, menyelamatkan diri kita sendiri dulu, kakak berharap Kelas Entrepreneur ini mampu menjadi wadah kita untuk sama-sama menyelamatkan diri kita dan kemudian menyelamatkan orang lain. Ada satu hal lagi yang benar-benar menjadi alasan kuat kakak mengapa memilih Kelas Entrepreneur, ketidakpuasan kakak dengan sitem pendidikan konvensional saat ini. Kakak hanya merasa bahwa pendidikan konvensial belum cukup untuk membuat system ekonomi berbasikan masyarakat yang kuat. Belum cukup untuk membentuk karakter anak yang mampu menemukan potensi nya, belum mampu untuk menciptakan anak-anak yang memiliki tujuan hidup yang baik untuk dirinya dan agamanya. Kalian tahu, misi ini terlalu berat untuk kakak pikirkan sendiri, I need you guys because I know Bengkulu or even Indonesia need us. Aku tidak akan pernah bermain-main dengan ini, walaupun terkadang tingkah laku yang aku tunjukan terlihat tidak serius. Namun percayalah, ini akan menjadi bisnis social yang akan membantu banyak orang nantinya. Karena aku selalu tahu bahwa apa yang kita lakukan saat ini ditunggu oleh orang banyak. Semoga Allah memberikan jalan dan berkah untuk mimpi ini. Maafkan bila tulisan ini terlihat begitu berambisi atau malah terbaca berlebihan, namun aku merasa bahwa hal ini yang paling tepat untuk membuat kalian tahu seberapa besar aku membutuhkan kalian untuk membangun misi ini. Sekali lagi terimakasih sudah percaya dengan “mimpi bodoh” ini. Terimakasih telah membaca “tulisan bodoh” ini. Mari berproses bersama...!

Dear God,
Good Morning… I have been through tiring day in last 3 days. This exhausted come due to rush activity that I faced. This is mostly because of birth day celebration and hanging out schedule with friend. What should be noted is birth day celebration making me exhaust in and out but not with class. I got multiple explanation and alert from KE Squad Team about the dangerous of having birth day celebration. It took me to the one decision that making me feels so guilt. Should I not make any other celebration of birth day in my life? I hope you could give me direction to understand this concept fully. Let we talk other issue. I would like to tell you about the last class experience. I shared a theory about making a great product and creating customer proud through customer path that released by Markplus.inc. Somehow, due to good preparation, I could deliver the material and concept clearer than previous class. I taught about making great product by showing a formula of Value equals with benefit that customer get and price that cost customer. By having an example of Luis Vuiton bag series, i underlined the concept of Emotional Benefit that entrepreneur must create in every product. As we believe that a product not only bring functional benefit but also bring emotional benefit, we emphasize entrepreneur should to prepare and put correct emotional in their product. The product which could win customer heart with emotional benefit they will win the market. Then, the price will be no more mater and entrepreneur could have unfair advantage from their product. By writing this concept, I know that I should start to think boldly about our own emotional benefit that must be transfer and put as significant material in our Kelas Entrepreneur. I will put it in emotional Quotient in my own Kelas entrepreneur Learning Sheet. For the customer path explanation, I choose to have 5A Markplus.inc concept to tracing customer purchase process. This concept will help me to deliver clear message to all participant about what should they do to create emotional benefit. This concept brought stage by stage about giving emotional benefit to the customer. By understanding this concept, all entrepreneurs must do action to fulfill all emotional experience in each path completely. Entrepreneur should make customer aware with our product by having great logo, nice tagline, and great picture display. After that the customer must be appealed by giving educational info and other trick and tips or so on. It should be implement in other 3 stages left. It must be implemented to KE Class atmosphere as well. What I knew from the class as well are I put over anger by Dina evaluation. I have believe as well that to make participant talk one and other is interesting part. So it should be implemented to next class as well. Fortunately, I thought that I succeed to bring emotion in that class even thought is still not running to well. I bring anger to the class by spook with high tone about the responsibility to utilize day to upgrade self and business as well. I succeed also to bring good motivational story from success local entrepreneur to link to my anger. I will bring this such technique to show other emotion to them. What I do really sad is when Cer said that it is too hard to change student mindset and mentality, he had an idea to downgrade the standard. I got angry really. It was really essential think of why Kelas Entrepreneur making this journey. We would like help other people to change the way they think and the way they face their future by approaching them with entrepreneurial lesson. We should not downgrade the goals; we have to think the way to realize. I will do that things, and make them think to so. I know I should to talk to them in every morning about that dream, about that mission about that hope where Entrepreneurship can create better world for everyone. Bengkulu, 16 July 2018 Diogi's Little Home Dear God,
Hello…Thank you for today, my 24th of 13th July currently. Thank you for being my partner and the best companion. I lost my word but I can feel the huge love have just came to entire body and soul, and I know it come from my ayah and ibuk. I admit that in last previous year, our relationship is much more romantic than before, bolder. When I know, I am crazy enough to pursuing my passionate dream while they are growing not so strong anymore to face real world. Every chance I back to village and see the set of story that I have made at place that we called home, I realize I have not much time to make their proud of me and give them very precious leisure time. My ayah is still working in his little garden and do it all by himself. He wakes up in the early morning to cut his rubber tree and earn money to continue their life. Even though he show in surface that he is proud and happy with his stuff, I bet that he more need to spend leisure time at home and create something cool with his loving hobbies. My Ibu passed one of very difficult circumstance this year, because of her ill. She did operation in her womb 2 month ago. Saw My ibuk in pain is one of the worst thing that I have ever seen. If I may ask to you God, Please don’t give us this situation again. I will do everything f I may request. First wish, please give them long live and let them have opportunity to be around me when I can realize my dream to make them proud. I owe whole world to them, I would like to give whole universe as the return. Today is like other 13 July that I have through. I am still Diogi who know nothing about forecasting the day after tomorrow. I give all dream, mind, body and soul to you. As many as I ask to you to do a, to do b, to z for my life, I put all control and decision on your side. For all beauty that I face and I will meet , it com as such good memory to remember, as the great memory when I could saw one of the most beautiful waterfall in Thailand, having great sunrise time on beach shore, and strolling to new places and learn. I have never better. For all pain and hurting time that I found and I will find, it will make me a real human being who could learn and evaluate from mistake. Whereas, many tear and unseen scars made by that pain, I feel bless because I can find myself closer to know YOU more. The very special wishes in this birthday come to YOU, please be my best buddies everlasting, I beg YOU, don’t ever think to leave me alone. I am such a dust. God, I know that it I will be hard journey for me, the bleeding way are waiting to be through. As I declare to be Father of Entrepreneur and help people find their potential to create better world, I always start my day with bunch of enthusiasm and tons of fear. Sometime the fear beat me down and I sleep with tear. I could not estimate how many obstacles that I will meet. But, what I am happy of is I always find the way to get up and start to run again. I feel you guide me and direct me to right path before I lost. If I may wish for the third, please always give this such power to bear down my fear. I am still Diogi who asking many question and wondering everything. Surround by people who love us is nonstop mercy that you always serve for my day. Wonderful Family, Happy team, great buddies, adorable counterpart make me can explore thousand story from them. I feel grateful when I can find new lesson when I meet new people. I am wondering who will be my partner to face future, my beloved mother of my kids. It just happen about last two week before today, the idea to find great partner have been appeared. For the fourth wish, please close her to me and make my heart believe that I will not choose the wrong one. I just need the one who believe with my dream, and I believe with hers. May all wishes confirmed…! Happy Birth Day Diogi….! Diogi’s Room with bird morning singing Bengkulu, 13 july 2018 I and Cer went to meet someone last night. His name is Arif. He is one of our Kelas Entreprenur Usaha Mikro Student. He has courier online service by riding motor bike. He runs his business already for 1 year. Currently, he is stuck with his business due to very bullshit team who resigned and makes new business similarly. This issue has been told to me many times with different business owner. I know it is very hard issue because it related with human mentality ad business culture. Why do so hard to find a team for start-up? Do we need pay people with really high salary to find a good one? Can we just pay them with our dream and business mission? Can we pull them in? or should we just make very special SOP and attract the one who do really interest with us? I have no idea to answer, not at all. The speculation is the only remain. How could I learn about this stuff? I am still suffering with this issue. I do believe that it is all about find the perfect guy who believed with our mission. But, which technique that must be implemented to deliver the mission, deliver the story. I should find I know, maybe just need to try. The other case, I found a reflection in my own case in working area. I am as employee now in a shipping line company. I come to this business due to love of mission from the founder. I have an access to learn how to be real entrepreneur from the owner. I do really love when he tell me the story of building this company, share his mission and though, I am so glad when he shared like we are the part of him. Maybe this is what Steve Jobs say, get them involve, as significant one. Ask them to contribute. But, you know god..? Yesterday the one who in charge as consultant in this company asked us to attend very special and crucial meeting about founder request. You know what? The founder said that our performance really decreased, could not fast response of picking up their phone while we home, late reply email, and not really aware of group WA discussion. You know God, I feel that so. I admit that matter. I am to concern with KE this last 2 week. But what do I really regret is, the founder using third party to tell our problem, prefer this option rather than tell us directly. I feel I am not his partner anymore, I feel like I just employee totally here. I called this as reflection because I learn that to deliver something the one who you think as your partner please tell everything and share your dream to them directly, not using the third party, not using the bridge. The message will be not delivered clearly; the spirit will be not received. I hope will not the same mistake. Henceforth, as like I told to Arif (the one who we talk last night), we only have trial and error to find technique to deliver the story to create great team. We have a team now, and my duty is to make every team falling in love with my story and become partner who would realize the mission of KE, together. Once all trial that I think enough will be implemented and is still not working, I know that I choose the wrong person. God, please let me try. For the working matter, I will promise I will be good partner for him while I am learning. Because I know, to find the one who understand our mission is difficult and quite lonely. 5th July 2018 SSF Office, Bengkulu Dear God,
What a cool Sunday, I woke up this morning by the info that my nephew was born. My family contacted me already, I got 38 missed called. It seem like I was really tired last night because I could not awake even tens called in my phone. God, I feel so blessed because of new member of our family has coming. He is so lovely baby I bet. And God, I haven’t tell you the story that happened to me last two days. Previously, I think that I have good enough of intrapersonal intelligence. I felt that I can find many solutions for my problem by myself. I thought that I can motivate myself when I am down. Unfortunately, it is just me with my own judgment. I am not that good. Let I tell you, in the evening of Friday 29 June 2018, the confusion came to me. It was like I remembered all my mission of life then I compared with all that I have done. The equivalent of this comparison could not be met. My dream is so big and precious, my movement is too slow and could not be count as serious one. At that time, every questions and idea come suddenly to my mind. I feel so weak, my brain worked so rush and my heart could not support at all. I am in the lowest position, demotivated, I was dying. Confused. The problem was the same; I just realize to manage a team is not easy deal. I know many theories of building team but I have no trusted experience to do so. I have many things to think and many plan to execute, but I could not my team work hand to hand with me. I always think it was my team fault, they not sensitive enough while I was too sensitive to ask them do what I am thinking of. i felt like I almost give up, i forgot that’s all my fault. I decided to chat Dina at that time, to ask them, what should I do with my Kelas Entrepreneur team? I asked Dina to give me critics and advise to measure my leadership. Lucky me, Dina tell the truth, hes said that my command is always unclear, I cannot to bold to give them direction, I am to slow so they do slower. i have car crash in my face. So, I know that I have to change. Do you remember Entrepreneur learning sheet that I have created? I am using that worksheet to solve my problem, this worksheet is using by participant in Kelas Entepreneur Usaha Mikro as well. It is already 3 days after my “ideas attacked” problem and for me so helpful to arrange my movement schedule. How good it works? I don’t know. I will tell you after a week about the result yes. Now I have to finish this journal due to fulfill my tomorrow planning and today evaluation. Thank you god for this blessing day…! Sunday, 1 July 2018 Diogi village room |
