Why Bother If You Can Ignore?

2012-05-10T01:22:00.000+08:00

Have you ever been stalked before? Or be stared at, by some unknown and unfamiliar strangers around you? It's normal for you to be worried, but I think its no big deal. In fact, why bother if you can ignore? Just forget about it, you have a lot more things to be concern about.

For me, I always assumed they were looking at someone/something else, partly because I once smiled at them before but have been ignored. Save some embarassment and awkwardness to yourself, nobody wants to be in that situation.

I believe that person certainly needs attention from you, either you'll be greeting them first, otherwise, or end up awkwardly. When that person wants to talk to you, they will urge themselves to greet you. That's it. Unless that person is super shy or socially-quiet in real life.

Take this with a grain of salt. Some may prefer to stood out and ask. Maybe that person knew you. Maybe they were mistaken for someone else. Maybe they just like glancing with their eyeballs. Either way, don't simply judge them by their behaviour. There's nothing wrong at being good with everyone, even strangers.

How To Multitask Your Tasks, Efficiently

2011-02-15T02:32:00.003+08:00

I have learned my lesson, never delay any of your work! Its sucks to rush out our adrenaline to get the job done. Or worse, when something gets in the way. You probably thought that "I should have did this earlier, I should have done that"... etc. That sort of regretment matures us over time, but it is still depends on people though.

Let me highlight 3 key points which can lead us to a better multitasker. One: Responsibility. Two: Commitment. Three: Honesty. Note that I have been practicing these 3 key points and reflect it to my life, so far it feels great to be a better multitasker.

One: Responsibility. We should learn to be a responsible person. Well, its easy to say than actually to do, but take it easy. Time will tell, and you probably don't even notice that you're actually a responsible person when finishing up your tasks. Like when your boss assigned you a task to finish off by tomorrow. At first, you would complain (relax, it's normal). Then, once you start doing your task, you will automagically have the guts to finish it by tomorrow! Sure, rushes often produced a not-so-good results, but our next key points can transform it into not-so-bad! Read on.

Two: Commitment. When you do your tasks, any tasks, always spice it with commitment (even though you hate doing it). Commitment has always been the proven secret recipe that's best with our first key point, Responsibility. When you mix responsibility and commitment, it encourages your adrenaline hormone to do it right, in this case, your tasks. As a result, you'll end up with good results that matches no other!

Three: Honesty. Always remember, commitment don't just pop out to your mind without actually being honest to get it done. You will need your encouragement. Encourage yourself to be honest when you're doing your job. Once you start being honest to yourself, you would have the commitment and responsibility to finish off your task, efficiently.

There you go, three key points that you should master. Once you done that, you can multitask your tasks more efficiently, without actually draining your time unnecessarily. Try it, it feels good to get the job done faster, until there's one time I felt like I got nothing to do since all of stuff I need to do has already been made. Good luck!

I Can Survive With Just a Plate of Fried Rice and A Bottle of Water a Day

2010-03-10T17:37:00.000+08:00

Rising cost of living troubles everyone on earth (except rich guys). I have this one dilemma of not purchasing unnecessary goods. Like most people, they eat big and shop big (even when they realize their pocket gets thinner). I only buy stuff that I need, and spare some for stuff that I want.

There's a huge difference with what you need and what you want. People these days are extremely in need for money (like when you're given a compound of 30 bucks just for wearing jeans in campus). I was like, what the fuck! Do people really care what we're wearing? Its not like we're naked or something!

Every morning, I must have my breakfast with fried rice and a glass of mineral water. Then I can survive until the night without lunch and dinner. Just a bottle of water is sufficient for me. The same goes for weekends which I don't eat any rice!

The point is, do you ever thought your life as a student becomes worsen over time due to rising cost of living? I mean students live on a tight budget (and we don't necessarily depend on our parents for the money). Its all about spending them wisely. I actually have 4 digits in my account but I'm not the "go getter" kinda person. I usually accumulate it to buy the stuff that I want, cause I already get what I need.

Let me ask you. What is your daily spend a day? Would you dare to take my path even though you're able to make a better path?

You and Me, Is Just A Step Difference

2010-02-27T16:56:00.002+08:00

Meeting new people and expanding the friends of my network is one of the things I like to do. Involving myself in so many activities and doing so much things just pushing me further. But I once have this thought where if I only don't do this much, I would be so free and relaxed. Recently I have a short chit chatting with the Senior Principal Assistant Director of Development and Students Affairs Divison of Ministry of Higher Education in Malaysia, Tuan Haji Ibrahim at Dunkin' Donuts before his flight departure to Kuala Lumpur on 24 February 2010. He was attending the International Student Leaders Conference (ISLC 10') in Universiti Teknologi of Malaysia on that day.

A little talk with such highly positioned person, perhaps would be my very first time experience. In fact, I have been sitting with Dato', VIPs, respected speakers and of the very important person in Malaysia. We are having a short conversation. He told me that the reason I am sitting with him having a cup of coffee because I involved myself in such activities. He said that there are no big differences between me and him. We are just a step difference. He was explaining on how to make yourself stand out from the others while both having the same level of education and knowledge. "You have to make yourself to be better than those around you. There are not much difference between the No. 1 and No.2. The second placing is just slightly a step difference. If you didn't even bother to take the first step, you already lose the game. It is the first and the consequences steps that you have taken that places you No. 1."

Truly deep insights and meaningful words, perhaps I have taken my first step in knowing this much and it is time for me to take the next step and keep moving forward. I am not going to be left behind even if I hurt my leg or so. Most people fail and continues failing because they couldn't accept the mistakes they do during their journey. Keep moving forward is my next philosophy of my life to make myself standing above and further up of the distance.

Instead of Ask "What", Why Not Ask "Why"?

2010-01-07T13:26:00.002+08:00

It is a natural phenomena and becoming a norm in our society that we are so busy in our daily life be it searching for own or family happiness or pursuing own desire or keeping pace with the world. Many and millions of people read newspapers. And I think you are one of the reader yourself. But don't ever this question cross your mind when you are reading these media. What you are reading and gaining information is to know "What is happening to this World" Does anybody give a damn to find out "Why does it happen instead?"

The answer to that question for most people is a "No". Clearly, people read newspapers everyday and even at times when they are reading a false or manipulated stories given by media. In the end, it turns out to be chaotic when each starting pointing fingers on one another without knowing the truth behind and just simply rely on news from media everyday. Information and even knowledge, be it factual or fictional are always manipulated and even worse, giving wrong statistics and blindly trusting them will lead to unimagined consequences. What I am trying to tell you is, don't solely depend on one resources to judge everything. Get a piece of evidence, do more homework and you will find out which research is correct and which is false.

Let me just ask you this simple question and I can assure you that 80% of people don't give a damn to this question. "Do you know that 2009 economy downturn was the worst ever recorded in history? And do you know why?" Bet that everyone knows that the economy turns out badly these days but no one even bother to find out why. Strange huh?

Beware of 2 Way Mirrors!

2009-09-28T19:42:00.007+08:00

Do you know how to determine if a mirror is 2-way or not? This is not to scare you, but to make you aware. A policewoman who travels all over the U.S. and gives seminars and techniques for businesswomen passed this on. When we visit toilets, bathrooms, hotel rooms, changing rooms, etc., how many of you know for sure that the seemingly ordinary mirror hanging on the wall is a real mirror, or actually a 2-way mirror (i.e., they can see you, but you can't see them)? There have been many cases of people installing 2-way mirrors in female changing rooms. It is very difficult to positively identify the surface by just looking at it.

So, how do we determine with any amount of certainty what type of mirror we are looking at? Just conduct this simple test: Place the tip of your fingernail against the reflective surface and if there is a GAP between your fingernail and the image of the nail, then it is a GENUINE mirror. However, if your fingernail DIRECTLY TOUCHES the image of your nail, then BEWARE, FOR IT IS A 2-WAY MIRROR!

"No Space, Leave the Place" So remember, every time you see a Mirror, do the "fingernail test" It doesn't cost you anything.

Remember:"No Space, Leave the Place"

Ladies:Share this with your girlfriends, sisters, daughters, etc.
Men:Share this with your wives, daughters, daughters-in-law, mothers, girlfriends and friends.
