A few weeks back, my friend Jennie S. Bev emailed me requesting me to write a foreword for her upcoming Bahasa Indonesia book Rahasia Sukses Terbesar (The Greatest Secrets of Success). A self-motivation book which is very interesting and impressive. The strong point of the book is it’s chiefly based on her own struggle and self-reform, so to speak, on how she achieves what she is now. For little intro about her see my post on Jennie as my Blogger of the Week.

Through reading the draft of her book, I was so impressed with her way of transforming herself. I feel as though I see my own personal struggle there only with a big differences: while she has gained and achieved so much; I achieve so less. Nevertheless, her book is a must for those who wants to see their personality improved.

Speaking of my intro, I’m a bit surprised to know through her email’s response that she’s so impressed with the foreword I gave. And I feel surprised even more that she also said it in her blog:

My beloved friend A. Fatih Syuhud, who is an Islamic scholar based in New Delhi, India, wrote the foreword, which is truly touching and sincere. (Thanks, Fatih, without your words this book might not have been as beautiful.)

Thanks Jennie for giving me a little role in your good book and your generous intention behind it. I hope it’ll be read by many Indonesian youth. Just for record, all revenue of the book which is supposed to be received by Jennie will be given away to charity for the needy Indonesian. Something everybody should try to emulate.
