The end of the year, 2015

Imagine, it is end of the year. It seems that it was just started, but today is 22 December 2015, where day and night equalized. In Taiwan, people believe, we should pray to God in this day as like as in Mongolia. I am still working on my dissertation, especially on questionnaire distribution.

Монголоос авах санал асуулга маань дуусчихсан, одоо харин Тайван, АНУ -аас авах асуулга маань нилээн удааширалтай байна. Би өгчидрөөс асуулга цуглуулах аргачлалаа өөрчилөж холбогдох хүн тус бүр рүү ганцаарчилсан е-майл явуулж байна. Өгчидөр 100 хүн рүү явуулсан бол, өнөөдөр 50 хүн рүү явууллаа, тэгээд 3 хүнээс л хариу ирсэн, гэхдээ, бөглөх боломжгүй гэсэн хариу ирсэн. Харин бусад хүнээс хариу ирээгүй байна. I should have 60 expert's respond (maximum) and 40 people (minimum). I am calculating how many people will answer to my questionnaire, and how much is the responded rate will be. I am assuming that at the minimum level, 1 person of 30 people will send me respond, so that I should send to 1200 people at the minimum. However at the maximum level of respondents' rate, if it assumes that 1 person of which 3 -5 people, then i should send to 180 - 300 people at the minimum. I am optimist, so I would be prefer maximum level, therefore, according to my assumption, I still need to send another 150 e-mails.

Another difficult task is literature review, I came in Taiwan on 27 October, since then, within 2 months of period, I read almost 150 articles, of which, I made citation from 95 articles. Which means, my reference includes 95 articles as of now and my literature review section is 35 pages. But I still need to add another 5 pages, so I still need to read more.

Third difficult task is Analytical hierarchy process, which is new methodology for me, where I should learn more and more.

However, I try to solve these difficulties with happiness without any stress. Consequently, the dissertation will end soon without any issues and problems, and with high quality. I am sure, i will reach to my goal by end of January' 2016. I am very much hope that 2016, will be the greatest year of my life and the fundamental base of my future long, happy - life.
