REVIEW YOUR YEAR 2010

REVIEW YOUR YEAR 2010

It is time to review your Year 2010.

Time to look back for the past year what target you have achieved and what you have not.

Of course for those that have been achieved, you would feel happy for the good reason.

However, you also need not be too distressed over what you have not achieved.

Instead, review them (those that have not been achieved).

They might be too unrealistic.

Some of them might not be achieved within a year.

They might have to be achieved in stages within 3 years.

You may find some reasons or some problems may just get in your way.

Take it as a lesson to learn and it will make a better you when you set your target for the coming year.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011 !!!!!!!

PROBLEM MUST EXIST

PROBLEM MUST EXIST

In life, there are always problems throughout.

When there are problems, we solve.

When we cannot solve, we seek help.

When help comes, they are solved.

When they are solved, we gain experience.

When we gain experience, we would become a better "us".

Problems are inevitable in life.

When there are no more problems, it means we would have never grown up again then.

So do not hope for "no problems".

Look forward to problems and solve them when they appear.

SMILE BRINGS YOU PEACE

SMILE BRINGS U PEACE

Every time you smile at others, there are high chances that they smile back at you.

It could also happen to those who think that you are their enemies.

When someone is just about to get frustrated, a smile could have extinguished the flare.

But please do not try it when someone is already frustrated enough that a smile could make things worse.

SMILE

SMILE

In my opinion, "Smile" is one of the most important activity on a daily basis.

Smile can bring you happiness and satisfaction.

Smile could also bring you peace.

Smile is also a very powerful weapon.

Smile can smoothen an uneven road ahead.

Trust me, SMILE now and look around you yourselves. Things will be different (to the better side) then.

COMPETE WITH PESSIMIST (PART 2)

COMPETE WITH PESSIMIST
MIGHT BE A LATE LOSER

You can be a sure winner if you compete with a pessimist.

But you just can't be happy too early.

If you keep on competing with a pessimist, you are sure a loser in the end.

A late loser indeed, as you do not get much out of competing with pessimist in the long run.

By competing with pessimist over time, it could reduce your desire to win over stronger competitor.

Remember, if you beat a stronger opponent, you will just get stronger.

So when you compete with a non-pessimist or an optimist in time to come, you could just lose out in no time.

Think about it.

COMPETE WITH PESSIMIST

COMPETE WITH PESSIMIST
FOR A SURE WIN

If you want a 100% sure win, you just need to compete with a pessimist.

The reason is that a pessimist does not expect to win in a any competition.

Hahaha .... !!!

But do not be happy too early.

Why ???

Watch out for Part 2 of Compete with Pessimist.

POSITIVELOG LOGO

LOGO FOR POSITIVELOG

Here comes the LOGO for this positivelog blog.

Multiple + in blue sky colour.

UPS & DOWNS IN LIFE

THERE ARE UPS AND DOWNS
IN LIFE

In our real life, there are bound to be UPs and DOWNs.

They are both inevitable in life.

Sometimes, they could co-exist.

Some people would just say while you are down in escalators and it breaks down, you are doomed.

Please DO NOT think this way.

Always remember, when you are downs, you can still walk up the idling excalators like they are normal staircases.

JUST TRY MISSING ONE BAD DAY

IF YOU DON'T THINK
EVERYDAY IS A GOOD DAY,
JUST TRY MISSING ONE

Sometimes, we feel tired after long working hour.

At times, we start to blame it to being a bad day.

Why don't you just try missing one bad day ?

It might helps to replenish your next day.

Of course, it should not be frequent, maybe once in a month.

Otherwise, you would take it for granted and would be missing all the remaining days.

I like this quote by Cavett Robert:-

NOTHING IS INTERESTING IF YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED

NOTHING IS INTERESTING
IF YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED

I always believe that there must be a reason behind something being a success or failure.

"Interest" is one of them what I would say.

You have got to be interested in something which leads to it being interesting in return.

Think of it yourselves.

Think of the things that are bothering you and those that are making yourselves happy.

It is always that those which you are not interested in, is bothering you so much that at times, making you feel that you are helpless doing it.

The above title quote is by Helen Clark MacIness

GAIN MORE OR LOSE MORE part 2

DO MORE GAIN MORE,

DO LESS LOSE MORE

(Part 2)

How do you find the part 1 of "Do More Gain More, Do Less Lose More" ?

I would suggest you do not complain on having more scope of works to do or "I am not paid for these additional works scopes", etc.

To me, any new or additional works being given are actually the opportunities to gain more, be it experience and/or one of the tools required in future or any upcoming events.

Do not have the perception of "they are not useful, I do not have to do that much, etc".

You will need it one day, and when the day comes, you will regret that you have not made full use to it and it is what I called "Lose More", instead of gain less.

GAIN MORE OR LOSE MORE

DO MORE GAIN MORE,
DO LESS LOSE MORE

Throw away the perception of doing more would gain more and doing less would just mean gain less.

It is just not gaining less for lesser work done.

It is instead losing more.

Times, Opportunities and even Opportunities Costs are missing from your Gain List.

I hope we can seriously think about this issue.

Hopefully, I can write more on this issue in these few days.

NO "IF ONLY"

NO "IF ONLY"

BUT "NEXT TIME"

Most people would always say "if only I have ......, if only I have not .......", when they have done somethings which are not to their expectation or somethings that they might have felt regretted.

But why don't we say "Well, It has all been done, Next time, we would know how to ..........".

Although they are just words, but it is one of the starting point to have positive attitude.

Attitude comes from Words initially and it would affect our actions to them.

So, keep up this good habit of saying "NEXT TIME".

OPTIMISTIC vs PESSIMISTIC on "NEW YEAR"

OPTIMISTIC vs PESSIMISTIC

on "NEW YEAR"


Dear All, another difference between being Optimistic and Pessimistic.

It is from quotes by Bill Vaughan.

 

It is really true.

Those who are pessimistic, really hope in hurry for the old year to leave.

And those who are optimistic, would be happy to welcome the new year in.

What a Comparison !!! It's Good.

YOU HARVEST WHAT YOU HAVE PLANTED

YOU HARVEST WHAT

YOU HAVE PLANTED

We always complain that why we can not be so successful as who and who.

But did we or do we have it in mind that we really would harvest what we have planted, whether in mind or in any action that we have taken ?

You do not always harvest what you have planted. However, you will never harvest if you have not planted.

You do not harvest sweet oranges if you plant an apple seed. And bear in mind that if you plant sour orange seeds, then do not expect sweet ones.

Any thought and/or action taken would affect your end product.

If your thought is always negative, then do not expect to gain anything that is positive.

So, start planting positive seeds into your mind NOW, and to harvest positive results SOON.

I AM POSSIBLE

I AM POSSIBLE; or

IMPOSSIBLE ???

Do not think everything or anything is Impossible.

Let your mind know that everything is possible.

Tell yourself that it is "I-M-POSSIBLE" and NOT "IMPOSSIBLE".



Always think that you are possible - i am possbile.

Everything is possible if you think it is and on the other hand, it is not if you think it is not.

WILLPOWER

"WILL" HELPS TO

ACHIEVE SUCCESS

Most people always think that once you have failed, you can hardly succeed.

Some people tasted failures in their childhood life and since then, they can hardly try.

What is failure ?

If you just give up after one or a few failures, how can you be successful ?

"Will" power plays a big role in this situation.

Your "will" is your only weapon that can help you achieve success after a series of failures.

Some people just give up as their "will" is not strong enough.

We have got to have a strong "will" to reach our target or achieve success.

SUNSHINE AFTER RAINS

THERE IS ALWAYS

SUNSHINE AFTER RAINS

Do not be afraid of problems coming accross your planning to success.

Problems are like Rains. Big Troubles are like Heavy Rains.

The Rains would not stay long. When that happens, Sunshine is just above you.

Why ? There is always sunshine after rains.

However, please do not take that for granted.

Because, sometimes there is rains after rains or you may face day-long rains, although after all the rains, there is still sunshine.

You have to push through this, otherwise, you might get sick and things will not go your ways, and by the time sunshine is out, you are still nursing your illness.

So, face you problems in a sunshine way. Do not always think that problems will not be solved.

ATTITIDE MAKES DIFFERENCE

AN ATTITUDE CAN MAKE
A DIFFERENCE

Sometimes, we all want to make a change - a change to a better stat.

When we are making a change, we are making sometimes to be different from the current stat.

These differences are important since we make changes for a better life.

I like this quotation by Winston Churchill, ........

DO NOT BLAME OTHERS FOR YOUR FAILURES

DO NOT BLAME OTHERS

FOR YOUR FAILURES

It is very often that some people would just blame others for their failures.

They would just think that someone else has got into their way and hinder their success.

For example, one singer release a new song and is not favoured by his/her fans. He/she starts to think and conclude that it is not popular because the writer of the song is not creative enough and/or the producer is not good enough with the production and etc.

In my opinion, if something just goes wrong, we should look at ourselves first and ask what has been wrong on my our ownselves and not to start to point at others first.

SUCCESS IS NOT DESTINY

DO NOT TAKE SUCCESS

FOR GRANTED

We have seen many people in this world who are very successful.

We have always thought that they are successful as they are talented, they came from rich family or they are destined to be successful.

Their success actually came with the sacrifice of their time and hardwork.

Therefore, if you think you are not gifted to be successful, put more hardwork on it.

And if you think you are gifted to be successful, you still have to work on it, ride on your talent and create more things out of it, and to be even more successful.

POSITIVE vs NEGATIVE in MANDARIN

POSITive (10) vs NEGATive (1)

in MANDARIN WRITING

We have always said that being Positive is better than or superior than being Negative.

It is also proven in Mandarin Writing. See below !!!

Positive in Mandarin Writing means TEN.

and Negative in Mandrain Writing means ONE.

Thus, POSITIVE has superior points than NEGATIVE.

And POSITIVE got it 10 points (Perfect Score) vs NEGATIVE on 1 point (is quite near Zero Score).

YOU ARE NOT THE WORST

YOU ARE STILL

NOT THE WORST

Do you always complain that you are in the worst situation in this world ? and that no one is more unlucky than you are ?

If you do, please STOP complaining about this anymore !!!

There are many people in the world that have come across even worse situation than you do.

They are many people who are still unable to feed their ownselves.

Successful people who found that they are suffering terminal disease in their early age stage.

Hardworking students who still fail in their exam.

Very poor children finding their food through garbage stand.

Compared to those mentioned above, the situation you are in is NOTHING.

So DO NOT complain !!! Keep working hard for what you have been pursuing for.

Not Tommorow, Not Later, But RIGHT NOW !!!

FACE STRONGER OPPONENT

FACE STRONGER OPPONENT

IF YOU WANT TO BE STONGER

Most people avoid facing stronger opponents.

Be it in a competition, through out the career path or even in the daily life.

A weaker person can be much stronger in a shorter period if they face a stronger opponent more often.

The weaker ones should be happy and more willing to face the stronger ones.

As the stronger ones face the weaker ones, their abilities and standards would seem to drop.

They are the ones who should avoid the weaker ones.

On the other hand, the weaker ones tend to improve in more aspects as they face the stronger ones.

Do not believe it ? Start to notice the people around you and you will believe what has been written above.

ASSOCIATE WITH POSITIVE PEOPLE

ASSOCIATE WITH POSITIVE PEOPLE


One of the way to be positive enough is to mix around positive people.

Associate with Goal-Oriented and Optimistic People around you.

You might not believe this but this is one of the way that makes you more positive from day to day.

The effect is slow and not immediate.

Although it is not noticeable, but once you are being influenced by the positive energy, such positive attitude would last long enough in your body and mindset to make you a perfect positive person.

BROADER SHOULDER

BROADER SHOULDER,
NOT LIGHTER BURDEN

I would always recommend to have broader shoulder, instead of asking for a lighter burden.

If you keep asking for lighter burden and keep asking why you are given so much tasks to carry out and complete, you will never learn much and will never be a successful person.

I would rather ask myself to have a broader shoulder.

Especially for those who are still young, they should get their body and mind to work harder and accept more challenge, which I mean broader shoulder.

Broader shoulder means more tasks being completed, which also means more experience in a short period of time.

You choose it. Broader Shoulder OR Lighter Burden.

MOVE ON

NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS,
MOVE ON

The earth is moving every second, the clock ticks every second.

While they are moving and clicking, good and bad things could happen.

Some may experience happiness, some may be suffering from sorts of troubles and problems that they are facing.

Whatever and however much you are being worried, you just have to move on.

Along the way, going through the process, it might leave some painful memories in you and there might be somethings that hurt you so much that make you keep thinking about such things.

But life will still have to move on. And if so, why do we choose to be thinking about those unhappiness ?

Move on with optimistic mindset now and treat every problem, pain and unhappiness as part of your experience and sacrifice that you just need to make your life better in the coming days.

OPPORTUNITIES IN DIFFICULTIES

THERE ARE OPPORTUNITIES
IN EVERY DIFFICULTIES

Do not always think about difficulties only.

Within any difficulties, we should always think whether there are any oppotunities beneath them and what are the possible opportunities.

Some people who are optimistic, when they face problems and difficulties, they would always think how to solve and find out any opportunities out of the problem.

However, for those who are pessimistic, they would only think that there are always problems and difficulties that can not be solved, or problems even solved would come one after another. And this cause them the opportunities which are just next to them.

I like this quote by Harry Truman :

"A pessimist is one who makes difficulties of his opportunities and an optimist is one who makes opportunities of his difficulties"

TO BE PERFECT BEFORE DOING IT ?

DO NOT WAIT FOR THINGS
TO BE PERFECT TO DO IT

It is good to be perfect and it is still good to be perfect in doing things.

However, if you spend too much time to make things to be perfect, it would not take you far as early as you can.

Lots of people always think it must be perfect before it should be carried out, it should be perfect before it is to be shown to someone else.

But they had spent too much of the time in trying to make things to be perfect before they actually started to do it.

I would say that we should do it once we are confidence that it is good enough to be done and not to wait till it is 100% perfect.

And along the way, we would fix it to be perfect.

EVERYDAY IS A GOOD AND HAPPY NEW DAY

EVERYDAY IS A GOOD
AND HAPPY NEW DAY

Forget how bad it was the day before.

After a good night sleeping in your favourite bed, you should start everyday with a good new day.

Treat every morning a new morning, everyday a new day.

Leave behind all the pieces of discouraging, frustrating and negative on to the day before today.

Why carry this heavy and useless luggage of negative stuff with you to the new fresh day ?

Live your life happily and start everyday with a GOOD and HAPPY NEW DAY, starting TODAY.

DO NOT COMPLAIN

DO NOT ALWAYS COMPLAIN

Do not always complain when you encounter bad things or difficulties.

Complaining would only lead to negative mind and thinking.

Although constructive and positive critics and feedbacks are good things to do, we have got to avoid excessive critics which could lead to negative complaints.

I still believe everything has its own good and bad faces and it is our own choice and decision to choose which side of faces to think about.

The way to solve it is to try to think the good things around it.

And you know what, it is still free of charge to think good and positive things in this realistic world.

ATTITUDE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT

ATTITUDE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN

TALENT AND KNOWLEDGE

Most of people neglect on how important Attitude is compared to Talents, Skills and Knowlegde.

For those who have realised this, do you know that this is also mathematically proven?

Let's consider alphabet A as 1, B as 2, C as 3 and so on till Z as 26.

It is not only higher in value, it hit 100 exactly.

Attitude is really a powerful weapon we need in real life.

POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE THINKING

THERE IS JUST BETWEEN
ONE LINE FOR
POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE THINKING

There is once a happy family; a father, a mother and two twin children.

One day, when these twin brothers were out at school, there is a break-in to this family house. The father and mother were killed by the burglars.

The twin brothers only come to know this unfortunate news when they reached home happily with their favourite ice-creams in hands. They were really upset over what has happened.

Twenty years passed, there is a serial murder case involving ten victims in five incidents. The murderer was arrested following the fifth and last murder.

The Inspector asked "Why did you do this ?"
The Murderer replied "I want revenge, My parents were killed in a break-in when I was just 10 years old. The murderers are still at large till now. I want to let others know how it felt by losing their parents cos I felt very bad living without my own parents"

The Inspector found out then that he is the Elder brother of the twin brothers and the younger brother happens to be his colleague in the same police headquarter.

Out of curiousity, the Inspector then asked tis colleague "Why did you decide to be a police ?"
Without hesitation, this younger brother replied firmly "My parents were killed in a break-in twenty years ago. I vowed to be a police, to prevent crimes and to uphold justice by arresting those who violates the law"

Twin brothers who have gone through the same misfortune, have chosen different ways to live. One is being positive and the other is being negative. It is really our choice and our thoughts to be either positive or negative.

NO WAITING, PLEASE

DO NOT WAIT,

BUT DO IT NOW

Do not always wait things to happen and then we carry out the next.

We have got to make it happen and carry out the next.

Things won't happen accidentally and won't happen by coincidence as well.

Things happen because of somethings else have happened.

So, stop the habit of saying "Wait till I have got  .........  or Wait till it is ........"

As quoted by William B. Sprague:-

     "Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot;
     but make it hot by striking"

By sitting on and waiting, we might have missed many opoortunities which are just in front of us.

OPPORTUNITIES ARE JUST NEXT TO US

OPPORTUNITIES ARE JUST NEAR US


There is an Assistant Manager who has been working very hard and smart. His boss also thinks highly of him.

One day, the Chief of one of the rival company approached this Assistant Manager and offered him Manager post. He agreed straight away and tendered his resignation to his current boss.

The boss was quite upset as he has long wanted this Manager to able to succeed him one day. He has also planned to promote him to Deputy Chief post the following week.

As this Assistant Manager has resigned, the boss has to promote the other colleague for the Deputy Chief post.

The Assistant Manager who has joined the rival company enjoyed being Manager. However, after a year, he was fired as the rival company was actually making use of him for clients contacts and setting up the management system. 

On the other hand, his ex-colleague, who has been promoted as Deputy Chief is now the Chief of the company as the Boss retired.

We have always been searching for opportunities.


We always see others who have been living better than us, how they have achieved and follow their ways to the success.

However, do we see the opportunies that are just within our own grab ?

Opportunities are everywhere and are just near us. But somehow, we tend to look for them on the opposite side.

THINK THE OTHER WAY ROUND

THINK OF THE THINGS YOU DON'T GET THAT YOU DON'T WANT

We always think that we have strived hard enough to pursue, go through the process and complete the journey to achieve somethings that we have long wanted.

But sometimes, it is really to no avail.

We start to think why everything just does not go smoothly, why we can not get what we really have wanted.

By thinking that way, it is only not be helpful to you, it would however make things worse.

You would start to think that all things have not gone your way smoothly.

And ultimately, depression is the worst that we would not have wanted to see.

Instead of thinking what you can not achieve what you have wanted, why not think the other way round that we also do not get what we have not wanted too.

There are people out there who live worse than us.

We should be relieved that we are not one of those who are really in deep troubles.

I like this quotes by Oscar Wilde :-

   "If you don't get everything you want,
   think of the things you don't get that you don't want"

LIFE IS CHOICE

LIFE IS CHOICE,

NOT OBLIGATION

Life is having your own choice, rather than an obligation to anyone.

Some people live in a normal living condition, but they are living happily.

Some people live in big house and are having high status and power, but they may not live as happily.

I think being happy is to live as what you wanted it to be.

Why forcing yourself to pursue monetary, power and status while you know that by living that way may force yourself out of the happiness zone.

Sometimes, I feel, are we really pushing ourselves too hard to reach all the exterior needs and neglect our own interior happiness.

Anyway, you know yourselves well and not others.

We should not have lived to show what others think we should have lived.

It is just not an obligation to others.

Live your Life and Happiness is just there within your grab.

TRY IT FIRST

YOU'VE GOT TO TRY

I believe in TRYING.

No matter what happens, no matter how difficult things are, we should try to do it, go through it and make it happens.

If we have not even tried, how would we know whether or not somethings can be done ?

Even if we fail in our first try, we should try once more, twice more, thrice more ............

I like this quote by Wayne Gretzky :

       "You miss 100 Percent of the Shots
        You Never Take"

It is true enough that we would miss all chances if we do not even try it out in the first place.

So, embed the word "'TRY" in your brain library NOW.

Start NOW in giving it a TRY on all things that you are going to encounter.

ATTITUDE MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

POSITIVE ATTITUDE MAKES

A BIG DIFFERENCE


Attitude is really important in our real life. and it has got to be a positive attitude.

Positive attitude would bring a positive working and living lifestyle to our real life.

Though the outcome may not be necessary as one has wanted (while being positive), but it would at least hinder any unwanted outcome resulted from negative attitude.


"There is little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative" 

 (Quoted by W. Clement Stone)

NO GOAL MEANS NO SCORE

WITHOUT GOAL,

HOW TO SCORE ???


As what has been posted by me earlier that we should have and set our Goal whether it is short-term or long-term.

If we do not have goal, we would not have made any great achievement.

So what even if we are talented. If we do not have Goal, everythings that are just in front of you would be nothing.

As in Football - If there is no GOAL in front of a Striker, He/She would never score even there is NO Goalkeeper.




I am new to creating a flash animation. Hope it is not that bad. Enjoy !!!!!

NEW CAMERA

MY NEW SLR CAMERA

OLYMPUS E-620

I have bought a new Digital SLR Camera Olympus E-620 with Zuiko Digital ED 14-42mm f3.5-5.6 and 40-150mm f4.0-5.6 lens kit.

There is a lot of things that are so wonderful in life that need to be captured.

I hope that I can do that with the use of this new camera.

Here is one of the image taken.

E-620 (with ED14-42 f3.5-5.6)

NO REGRET

DO NOT REGRET

Do no regret for whatever things that have been done.

As quoted by Victoria Holt:-

        "Never regret.
        If it's good, it's wonderful.
        If it's bad, it's experience"

If you could think this way, life would be so wonderful to you.

So, erase the word "regret" from your brain library now.

Accumulate your Experience and have a Wonderful day.

DO NOT EXPECT MIRACLE

DO NOT EXPECT

MIRACLE TO HAPPEN

Expect NO MIRACLE to happen.

Whatever you do, try your best.

Do not just do for the sake of doing and expect MIRACLE to happen.

MIRACLE should be the least thing that you should expect after you have done your very best.

PESSIMISM IS NOT HEALTHY

PESSIMISM IS BAD TO HEALTH

Pessimism is bad to health.

It is really bad both mentally and physically.

Being Pessimism for long time would lead to depression which could affect the mentality to work better and to live better.

Physically, immune system of the whole body would start to drop and would lead to lower ability to fight illness or disease.

Although being Optimistic would not necessary be free from illness and disease, it would however prevent and reduce the chances.

Anyway, being Optimistic does not require any monetary or power, it only need a little bit of effort than being Pessimistic.

FAILURE COUNTS

FAILURE MIGHT NOT ALWAYS
BE A BAD ISSUE

Failure might not always be a bad issue.

Sometimes, we, Human, need to be waken up by failures.

Be it to those who always fail in their field. Or Even to those who always excel in their field.

Imagine on those who never fail, they really do not and will not taste what failure is like. And they would never realise what could be learnt from failures.

Even worse for those who start to be more and more arrogant. They would think they are the best and start to look down on people. Sometimes, failure really helps and really wake us up.

NO TO ENEMY, YES TO FRIEND

MAKE YOUR ENEMY

YOUR FRIEND

When you create an Enemy, you lose a Friend.

When you make a Friend, you get rid of an Enemy.

So, make your every single enemy your friend now.

SHARE THE IDEAS TO OTHERS

DO NOT BE AFRAID OF

LOSING IDEAS TO OTHERS

"DO NOT COVET YOUR IDEAS"
"Give away everything you know, and more will come back to you"

(extracted from "It's Not How Good You Are, It's How Good You Want To Be" by Paul Arden)

Ideas are supposed to be shared.

Throw away the school-age behaviour when you start to prevent your classmates from copying your answers.

Share everything that you know to others and you will be left with nothing special.

This would force you to look for new ideas, which you will then share again.

So more new ideas will come back to you.

START THE NEW DAY BY SHARING YOUR IDEAS NOW !!!

AMBITIONS > TALENTS

AMBITION IS MORE

IMPORTANT THAN TALENT


"Talent helps, but It won't take you as far as ambition"

(extracted from "It's Not How Good You Are, It's How Good You Want To Be" by Paul Arden)

So what if you are talented since born. So what if you are a genius.

Ambition is still more important than talent.

Ambition would make you achieve what you could not have achieved.

VISION

VISION OVERCOMES PROBLEMS

Do not be afraid of  problems.

The reason Problems could not be solved are mostly due to smaller vision that we have.

A Bigger Vision would overcome any size of problems and difficulties.

Small Vision or even NO Vision at all would have caused the smallest problems to hinder you from becoming what you want to be.

ONLY ONE MORE PAIN

BEING POSITIVE IS JUST

ONE MORE PAIN AWAY

FROM BEING NEGATIVE

It is just One More Pain.

All you need is just another piece of Plaster.

THANK YOU

THANKS TO ALL VISITORS OF THIS BLOG

I am very Happy for the past week including today. The visitors have grown a lot since the first day I started this blog.

I would like to take this opportunity to say "MILLION THANKS TO ALL THE VISITORS OF THIS BLOG" to all the visitors.

The visitors do not only increase in number of visitors, but also increase in number of visitors from different Countries, across Five Continents (Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia and America).

This is really a great motivation to me.

Once again - THANKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS !!!

KNOWING

IT IS MORE THAN KNOWING


The word "Know" has appeared in my posts for many times.

I just want to stress that knowing is really not enough.

Like what has been quoted by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, German Playwright, Poet, Novelist and Dramatist:-

    "KNOWING is not enough, we must apply.
     Willing is not enough, we must do"

I strongly agree with this.

STARTING POINT TO THE GOALS

KNOW YOUR STARTING POINT

Before you plan all the strategies to achieve your Goals after you have identified them, there is one important thing that you really need to know.

That is "Know Your Starting Point".

Without knowing your Starting Point, all the planning and hard works would be drained off in time and it would affect your fighting spirits.

One very good example is that if you do not know where you are standing in, how would you reach your destination even if you are given a map ? How would a US map be helpful to you if you are in Canada ?

IDENTIFY YOUR GOALS

KNOW WHAT YOU WANT

To pursue your Dream, you might have several goals to achieve before that.

Identify your Goals. If you yourself do not even know what you really want, No one else would know.

And you have to be practical. Write it down on a piece of paper and keep it secured.

You could start with a short term Goal. Once you have achieved, then try to write more goals.

You have heard a lot of "Talk Only But No Action" and "Easier Said Than Done".

So the first action that you need is to write it down.

NO ANGER PLEASE !!!

DO NOT GET ANGRY EASILY


As quoted by Ralph Waldo Emerson:-

"For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of happiness"

Why be angry when we can choose not to ???

Tell yourself that even being angry will not change the situation you are in now.

Why not look from the other angle and try to forgive.

Remember !!! Being angry would just affect your own health and will not help in solving your problems and your unhappiness.

So fill up your new day with 24 hours of HAPPINESS every day.

STRETCH !!!

STRETCH BEYOND YOUR MEAN

Remember the quotes from John C. Maxwell in his "Be All You Can Be" book ?

We have got to be like Rubber Band - It is not useful until it is stretched.

So stretch yourself more, stretch beyond your current comfort zone.

- Leave your Comfort Zone
- Break through the Boundaries
- Face more Challenges
- Learn more Experience
- Build your Confidence

You would never know till you try.

HAPPY STRETCHING

PERSEVERANCE

DO NOT GIVE UP EASILY !!!


Learn to persevere. Do not give up so easily.

If it can not be done in one trial, then try more and more. Just like the Scientist, their inventions are all from trials after trials, failure after failure.

But they have one in common, they keep their mind going and persevere and results are what we have today.

Remember, mistakes are one of the stepping stones to the answer that you have long wanted.

Although results still call, the process is more important than results in long run.

TO HAVE DREAMS ???

DO WE REALLY NEED

TO HAVE DREAMS ?


In my opinion, we need Dream to be successful.

Imagine that if you do not even have a Dream, how would you have got yourself up to become successful ?

Not only we must have a Dream, we should be having more than one Dream. We have got to have Dreams after Dreams.

To have dreams is the most powerful way of getting yourself motivated, eventhough we all know that Dream is not the only tools that make us successful. However, we have got to have this starting basic point.

Once we have Dreams, we would then have plannings including identifying your goals along the way.

HAVE A DREAM

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN A DREAMER AND

A PERSON WHO HAS DREAMS


There are thousands and thousands of Dreamers but there are few people who have dreams. There is a world of Difference between them.

Dreamers talk much and do little. They may hatch up wild plans and ideas but you never see them happening. They lack discipline.

A person who has a Dream talks little but does much. You may not hear all about the dream, but if you watch, you will see it happen.

DO YOU AGREE WITH THIS ???

STRETCH WITH CHALLENGES

FACE THE CHALLENGES
AND STRETCH WITH THEM


Leaders STRETCH with Challenges


Followers STRUGGLE with Challenges


Losers SHRINK from Challenges


Just like a rubber band – It is not useful until it is stretched

(extracted from the book BE ALL YOU CAN BE by John C. Maxwell)

DO YOU AGREE WITH THIS ????

FACE THE OBSTACLES

TACKLING OBSTACLES IS A

PROCESS TO ADVANCE TO A

HIGHER LEVEL

BACKING OUT WHEN YOU FACE AN OBSTACLE ? THINK AGAIN !!!!
YOU MIGHT NOT IMPROVE SINCE

Most people just back out when they face an obstacle. They might no longer be able to advance since.

Why do we need to back out ? JUST FACE IT and TACKLE IT. You've got to settle the obstacle in front of you, and you will be able to cross over and advance further.

The most important thing here is the process - how you experience it when you face the obstacle. From this very first experience, you will then be able to tackle even harder-to-tackle obstacles.

Remember !!! Obstacles are always there for you. It is inevitable and you will never be able to run away from them. Therefore, simple words would be FACE IT AND TACKLE IT.

NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE

EVERYTHING

IS POSSIBLE

.... if you think it is

STOP THINKING "It is impossible for me to ..... "

Everything just could happen in this World. You've got to believe that nothing is impossible.

IF you yourself think it is impossible, then it shall be the end for yourself. So, stop thinking it that way. Tell yourself that if you persist and be confident, it could be achieved successfully.

I myself is a believer of "NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE". I am what I am today, how successful I am today, partly due to this belief.

"YOU YOURSELF"

YOU'VE GOT TO THINK

THAT YOU WORK FOR

YOURSELF AND BE

RESPONSIBLE TO

YOURSELF.... sometimes

WHY IS THERE SUCH AN INDIVIDUALISTIC TITLE ABOVE ?
STRONGLY AGREE OR DISAGREE ?

Some people work very hard and smart. Some just work very hard but are not efficient and creative enough. Some of them are contrary lazy in work and do not think out of box.

Those who have worked very hard but are not efficient and creative enough would always think that why the bosses are not appreciating their hard work. However, they would not think the other way round that the bosses need someone who can work efficiently and not working in long hours.

Those who have worked hard and worked smart would think that the world is unfair. Yes ! it is ! This category of employee are always given even more job scopes and more responsibilities. And they would start to think of this unfairness. But why is this happening ? IF the bosses think you are good, of course, they prefer someone like you to carry out more important things for them. Bosses would know, appreciate and reward you when time is right.

Unfortunately, some bosses really do not appreciate this. But you do not have to worry too much. Tell yourself that even if your bosses do not appreciate you, do not be upset. Tell yourself that You are working for yourself and your own future. If you are good, someone elsewhere would realise and appreciate you.

Lastly for those who are lazy in work and do not think out of box. You are the one who should worry much more. In the event of retrenchment, you will be first to be fired.

EXPECTATIONS

PERFORM ABOVE EXPECTATIONS

BEFORE YOU EXPECT MORE

Expect more from your Boss before you choose to meet or even perform above expectations ?

THINK AGAIN !!!

Bosses around the world would have the same characteristic where they expect more from the employee before the latter could expect more from them.

I agree with that, and that is the approach I was (before), am (now) and will be (in future) using through out my whole career path.

When I first stepped into the employment world, I told myself that I should and have to perform above expectations because I believe that if I perform above expectations, the Boss(es) would know and I can expect more from them.

Of course, initially, the words "expect more" would mean more job scopes to be given to me to perform even more above expectations. I believe they would appreciate my performance. Rewards will be flying over into me when that happens even not being expected by myself.

The best thing is that if they really do not appreciate it, It would still not be a loss to you. When you perform above expectations, it means you learn a lot more than what a normal person of the same period they are into the employment as you. A person with an experience of more than 10 years would not necessary be better off than a person with just three or four years of experience. It really depends on how much you are putting yourself into and how much you value-add to the company which include even youself.

I hope today's post is not so boring that you would not want to even read till the very last sentence.

Thank you for reading my post.

BE POSITIVE

BE POSITIVE

Hi everyone out there !

I am a person who would try my very best to be positive. Although I cannot be a total optimistic guy sometimes, I would still hope that everyone should not have chosen to be pessimistic.

In my opinion, it is a choice, rather than a born-to-be character.

I would not want to just post those so-called positive quotes to motivate. I hope to create this blog with much of simple, daily and relaxing posts with some of them are inspirational.

Hopefully, there will be some icons, animations, games and photos.

Thank you for visiting my blog.
