I have told people in my company that.. most of the time successful people is the kind of person that worry little about most things and put great effort and diligent focus on few things.
Some time these successful people do not even realise this fact... they are just going about doing their things... but this is actually what they are doing unconsciously. It is the reason that they are successful
So.. all i am trying to say that time is so precious... some people seems to be busy all the time but yet unsuccessful and going nowhere and yet some are busy all the time and seemingly achieving... and yet some amazingly busy but yet poised and calm and yet achieving much more than others....
The things is, despite of being busy... we have to check what are we busy about... ideally we should not be busy only one thing only. We should be busy doing things at perfect balance... there should be partition for example in work such of specific time for managing operation, time for managing policies and time for devising policies... as for people with general managing function.. there should be time to run operation, let say in the morning and time to run the sales in the afternoon...
Being smart with your time means you can fit in a lot of thing in your time slots and achieving great balance and living more fulfilled and more meaningful live..
Lastly, there should always be time for a cup coffee with your colleagues, staffs or friends...

Twilight zone - Knowing the unknown
Human has ego...but in actual they lives in fear and insecurity...
We may look tough on the outside... but we have many fear inside...
Some time the tougher they look... the more fear they have...
Naturally human knows what they know...
But out of ego and fear human just stick to the thing that they know..
It make them secure anyway knowing that they know some things...
But by doing this, they are limiting their potential and growth..
That is why sometime we can observe people who talks a lot and in actually there are nobody... it is because they look good but only talking on subject that they know best... it makes them feel secure anyway...
But to grow and become a better person..we need to know what we do not know...period.

Our potential... the unknown and the forgotten
We used to hear and say... this and that person has potential.
This and that person doesn't has potential...
Or we might heard things like .. he or she got the potential and it needed to be polished...
Well...it seems that certain person has potential and some don't.... huhu
I think that it might not be the case after all..
I think potential is not something that we found along the way and we may pick it up...
Potential is there from the very beginning...
It is already there the moment we were born..
Every body has it...you and me has it.. our children has it..
and it is shown the most when we are so very young...
It is just that not many potential are nurtured at the early stage..
Most are exposed and injected with fear, insecurity and environment i.e our parent, friends, relatives or even society.. that dictate the limit of our potential..
Most of us are played as victim...as the people around has been a victim before...
Though doing this is unintentional because they just fear for our future.. but unintentionally they limit and bury our potential.. with good intention of course..
Thus we are tune to have all this as we grow up..
Environment dictates that we are suppose to do this and that, to avoid and become this and that...
So, because of this, our once shining potential when we were a kid dims and gets buried deeper and deeper within us...
Thus all I am trying to say is that potential is always there within us... all we need to do is to uncover and dig it out from within us...
Some will ask and wonder how on earth are we going to do that....It is complicated as it is and I wont spend too much writing as there are actually many ways...
I guess what I can say is to start small...and all i can say is that try to be a better person and soon you will uncover it...

The thing about changes
Human needs to change to evolve..
Changes means growth...
If we are not changing, we are not growing...
But the thing about changes is that...
It will make you feels discomfort, confuse and some time uncertain..
Just embrace it and have patience in going through it...have a strong will..
This situation emerge because the old habit and practices have to breakdown first to give way to the new change to kicks in...you have to go through all this first before you reap the break through...
So if you want to change something and it is too smooth and pleasant... your are not undergoing the changes that you desire.. you are just looking at your old self in a different perspective.. that is all that you are doing...
But the real deal is.. no pain.. no gain....
and no change... no growth....

Just say it
Recently i had come across some experience.. basically i know what it is..
Then i bump into this book...
The saying is that..
"You can say whatever it is that you wanted to say as long as you say it with respect"
It goes on saying that "You can speak and express all you need to sayto anyone so long as it is languaged in a way that is respectful and allows the listener to protect their self worth"
Thus say whatever you want under these conditions, sincerely with good intentions, firm yet with humbleness... why not say thing if it can make a difference.
Words are powerful!.. it can be uplifting to you and to the person that are listening.. it can sting and hurts too!
Words reflect your character, your mood, you intention and etc. Words is the reflection of you mind and your probable reaction and action...words is who your are... If you want to be better person and leader.. improve your language and mind your words... else say whatever it is you want... period

We might as well.....
We work to find living
We spend much time working
If you add up the time commuting to work,
that is a lot of time!
The thing is whether we like it or not,
we are living human being and regardsless of any thing we need work to fund living...
The idea is..
Since everybody must work... we might as well love our job..
We do not want to later find out that our job sucks and we are just passing through everday just to pay the bills..that life is boring!
So if you have a good job in hand..embrace it, appreciate it and love it.. try to be the best and consistently perform all task with flying colours...and maybe be grateful if we are in a great organisation.
If you have a miserable job... hmmm... just quit and find a better job in a better organisation...
If you decide to move on... be persistance, have a lot of patience... changes will make you uncomfortable and sometime feeling unsecure... but over time give you will reap better reward definately!
Good luck!

The talk
We live in a world where the information is abundance.
We do not only have books as medium..
We have media, internet and etc
Being successful is about getting the most information
Be it market trends, be it the latest management practices.
But nowadays, it seem that everybody have that piece of information
People are talking and discussing about information.
Yet only few people succeed.
The reason is majority of people with the information do not know how to use it
Or rather they are just merely talker..
They talk about their resolution.. but all they do is just talk about it...
So dont be a talker, be a doer..
Rather that just talking about the idea or concept,
Find out how to make it work and do it..and most importantly commit to it!
