This post is a tribute to all the Work At Home Moms/ Stay At Home Moms out there, or those who wish to follow our footsteps! I wrote this post/ status in the WAHM FB group about a month ago and surprisingly it got quite a lot of positive feedback.

I hope it will inspire you as much as it inspired all the SUPERMOMS out there! Enjoy!


Izam Suziani
Salam Wahmies! Just nak berkongsi rasa gembira/ senang hati saya sejak resign dari gov isnin lalu. Saya mmg takut nak take the first step, tapi Alhamdulillah, once it's done, i feel so liberated! Tak sangka saya akan rasa happy mcm ni! I bukan nak ajak semua org berenti keje, dak.. I just want to say that you'll be happier when you follow your heart, especially bila nawaitu kita tu utk bersama suami dan anak2, dan utk mendapat keredhaanNya. Now i understand what it all means! Hijrah ini sungguh indah! And thanks for all the support! Korang mmg best!

    • Izam Suziani Ya Allah, kak Mahya MTarip, saya ni grad oversea, ada contract 10 tahun, keje gov 8y 7m, amik pencen. Kerja sgt berdedikasi. Tak pernah terfikir nak tinggalkan the service langsung. Mmg byk berkorban demi parkhidmatan pd pesakit2 saya. Family is always second. Tapi bila saya dah di-push to my limit, saya nekad tinggalkan semuanya. Resign 24 hours lagi! Bayar sebulan gaji saya lagi (ermm banyak tu). Walaupun saya 'rugi' dlm byk aspek, tapi bagi saya sayalah org paling untung di dunia ni! Duit boleh cari (for the first time saya bersyukur sgt saya ni keje sbg doktor! Kalau tak selama ni asyik nyesal je rasanya). Rezeki Allah ada dimana2. At least skrg ni saya happy, family happy, kalau saya keje kuat, duit masuk, puas hati. Kalaula saya skrg ni keje sekuat saya keje kat gov dulu, saya mmg dah kaya raya. But it's not all about the money! Bila kita buat demi Allah, insyaAllah the reward is super sweet!

    • Mahya MTarip betul tu. klu kita dipaksa keje sampai tahap yg memang kita terasa dipergunakan maka dr situ hati kita jadi tawar tuk teruskan keje kita. x apa. i'm proud of u.

    • Ayu Khairy salam Izam Suziani, situasi kita hampir sama..saya juga berhenti dengan notis 24 jam ..baru je berlaku 3 minggu yg lalu walhal saya baru je join firm tu dalam sebulan lebih..sebelum saya join firm tu, saya kerja dengan firm lain selama 7 tahun..memang offer dari firm tu tinggi, tapi sebabkan ada beberapa benda yang saya tak boleh nak terima (sebab masa interview lain, masa dah kerja lain la plak), saya rasa tak sanggup dah nak kerja dgn suasana macam tu..dan Alhamdulillah, suami amat la menyokong hasrat saya..time tu dalam fikiran saya 2 je..samada cari kerja lain atau buat biz. so, sebab suami saya mmg bekerja berkaitan dgn usahawan2 ni, maka, dia la galakkan buat biz kecil2an dulu...saya harap juga ia satu keputusan yg tepat ..semoga kita sama2 berjaya ye.. btw, saya tak pergi seminar irfan khairi tu sabtu ni sebab saya pergi seminar Intensive Advances Fesbuk Power 2012..saya harap pelaburan ini berbaloi ^_^

    • Izam Suziani Thanks all for your support. Tak sangka akan dpt byk feedback. Walaupun saya happy tinggalkan tempat kerja lama saya, saya masih lg bekerja dlm profession yg sama, tp dlm keadaan yg berbeza. So pada yg terpk nak leave the service, pls have a backup plan ye, make sure u have another job, or at least another source of income ya? Istikharah n doa byk2. InsyaAllah Dia akan tunjukkan jalan.. Amin

    • Lily Maznah Muas Tahniah Izam Suziani atas penghijrahan anda. Semoga ianya satu penghijrahan yg akan memberi lebih barakah dalam kehidupan Izam.
      My advice kpd mereka yg dah ready tapi belum "berani" lagi ialah satu nasihat yg seorang pernah bagi kat Kak Lily suatu masa dahulu:
      "Your career can wait, but your children cannot".

      Anak-anak akan terus membesar tanpa menunggu bila kita "ready". Jgn nanti bila anak-anak dah tak perlukan kita (once dah sekolah rendah, mereka akan lebih masa kat sekolah drp kat rumah dgn kita), baru kita nak meluangkan masa dgn mereka. Career boleh tunggu atau boleh cuba career yg baru yg lebih flexi. Rezeki kita Allah dah tulis kat Lauh Mahfuz 50000 tahun sebelum dunia diwujudkan, so akan ada untu kita di mana sahaja, asalkan ada usaha, insya Allah.

Happiness is...

It's been a week since i left my old job for 8+ years. I still can't get used to not being worried all the time yet! I'm still constantly thinking, worrying and trying to find something to do all the time *it's not easy being an adrenaline junkie*

At the same time, I'm trying to get used to my new role as a self-employed doctor, a full time mom when i wish, and a Work At Home Mom. I find myself still struggling to make ends meet. Time management is the skill i really need to master now!

The best thing about my life now is that I am in control! Fully. Freedom- it is the best feeling ever.

One thing for sure, I am the happiest person on earth now!
