Four o'clock in the morning. The sun is only starting to ascend and brings forth with it the hope of a new day. It was still dark outside. Darkness still envelopes this side of the world but most of us are already preparing to embark in a battle. The proper application of the principles we had been taught will now be put to the test. Some are hurrying to go to the market and purchase the merchandise that they will be selling, sourcing out the cheapest yet the best quality of product that can be enhanced and then added up with a profitable margin. This is the beginning of the 41st chapter of the amazing race where patience, integrity, perseverance, and wisdom will be test. Patience to go hand in hand with charity to politely and professionally deal with the member of each group. Integrity that will be the benchmark of being fair and honest in dealing with business partners, suppliers and consumers. Perseverance that will serve as the fuel to go on enthusiastically despite of the challenges lying ahead. And, wisdom which will be the measurement and indicator of how much each student have grown up and learn with regards to the wise and sound business principles we had been taught. This is only the beginning, yet we can barely identify the ones who will stand out when this wonderful learning opportunity is over. Each team will deal with the challenges that will both comes from the inside and as well as from the external aspect that will dictate and help us learn and anticipate the intellectual business minded person that we will, or that we have to become afterwards.
