Sometimes difficult to find relevance between education levels with success. Many of those who drop out or even just graduated from elementary school but can behasil in his life. While not the least educated high just mediocre. Most who succeed are usually because thinking is simple so that they can act effectively. Although the measure of success for everyone is a relative of the period to period and could be debated at length, but for me Harto Al Karim is one that succeeded mainly in the eye glass business. Simple indicator, he succeeded in changing the life that was once only a "mason" (the term Napier community for construction laborers), become a businessman who until recently able to hire approximately 60 employees. Digelutinya business was quite unique, namely create replicas of various types of aircraft, orders obtained ranging from private collectors, domestic airlines such as Mandala, Garuda, Buraq to foreign countries. Pak Harto close calls man born in Napier March 10, 1960 this simple philosophy of doing business armed with a legacy of the deceased person his parents, "that man is a human good that benefits many people ", something which to me is extraordinary for a man who only completed primary school in Makasar in 1974 this. It's also gone through for 9 years. When asked why run with the tone of a joke he only answered "I loved my teacher the same, so unfortunately that finish quickly." Thus he said innocently, started the conversation. This is the hallmark of Suharto. all as if faced with lightly, completely ordinary and simple. See, when I was invited into the event at the TPI he only commented "Oh ... I get into television yes", as well as my staff asking why their products are not given in order to increase brand value products. He simply replied "no problem, others can profit I also do not lose, we share with each other. " Thus Harto figure not only successful in business, but also managed to become what it is. Like most other Bugis people who love to wander, Harto set foot in Jakarta in 1980, and with his family worked at a company that makes military completeness attributes. Business replica of the new aircraft began in 1985 after previously had worked at an advertising company. Leading the effort replica aircraft arguably no coincidence because he and his friend had previously make souvenirs for Garuda passengers. But the new plane replica effort began after one of his colleagues obtain the actual tender was won by the other participants. However, because the winner did not commit, the procurement of miniature aircraft MD11 of 500 pieces of Garuda is submitted to a peer Harto then recruited him as a partner. "At that time I had absolutely no experience making a replica product this plane "recalls Harto. However, various obstacles successfully passed through, including the difficulty of finding materials and production capacity that slightly, but orders from other companies want done on time. Time passed and now Harto a lot of orders from within and outside country, including exhibition opportunities in Saudi Arabia. Harto experienced success today, as I mentioned in early writings is because of its ability to glance at opportunities that followed the way of thinking simple. Thinking philosophically simple means: realistic and see things with what it is. Although the look is simple but not everyone can do it. For Harto, simple way of thinking because of the possibility of obtaining education formal digelutinya not high enough, he even more get a "real education" from the association of daily life, something can bring him closer to the actual reality. When failure in various professions, he just said to himself that "maybe yet the time comes ", this is the case when asked about the brand and competitors, she just says "kualitaslah who will speak, and without competitors can never say someone superior. " For him the competition is a reality that must be faced and overcome is the ability proof that we really excel. Even more interesting, though has a turnover reaching millions per month, Harto have not thought about a special accountant and body shape business, because so far he is still under the banner of Ozi Aircraft Models (OAM), a company which continues to be individual. When asked various possibilities that will be faced by business in the future if it continues stand in the way now, he just said "I will any face shape, I never went bankrupt during the crisis, and I will learn from that situation. " For the layman, it may be somewhat difficult to explain the philosophy of business as Harto, but it is, they are still living it. For those of us who high level of formal education may be said that to think simple means ignoring the planning, but in many ways we are confronted on the fact that going fast so it is necessary not only accuracy but also speed decision. Harto even dare accept the tender offer which was won by his colleague from Garuda, whereas let alone the experience to make, just do not know the basic ingredients, but in This is where the challenge, Harto can successfully convince customers that it able to do what the commitment. How to think like this obviously is not easy, but at least there is some things that became the key word, namely: first, Flexible. This attitude is identical with the ability to accept risk as well as adapt quickly against any change, including failure. But flexibility is not means the act of speculative or understand risk as something that definitely occurred, because flexible means prism of reality. Second, the mental strength. These forces are not formed simply but through various processes. For Suharto, this is probably due to its spirit as foreigners (refugees) where there is no other choice in order to exist other than seek independent, self-confidence by not relying on anyone. This attitude clearly requires resilient attitude. Third, the Firm and realistic. Determining who is not much choice still not easy for Harto, because with minimal education especially Jakarta lost in the wilderness is clearly not profitable. Only firmness kenyataanlah deal that keeps them see the light albeit from a narrow slit. Finally, think simple and realistic as possible one key to success in the midst of complexity that we face today.
