cuba kita bayangkan....sedang kita berjalan2 kita terlihat sebuah pokok mangga yang dari jauh buahnya melayut-layut, magga yang gemuk2 saiznya dan kekuningan warnanya....wahhh kita tentunya terpikat untuk menghampiri kerana ingin melihat dengan lebih dekat lagi.....
setelah mendekati kita dapati pokok tersebut terletak berdekatan dengan sebuah longkang yang mana airnya berwarna hitam dan berbau busuk...rupanya air itu datangnya dari pembentungan yang tidak sempurna yang mana airnya mengalir dengan laju.....
rupanya pokok mangga yang kita lihat mangganya kekuningan dan kegemukan tadi mendapat khasiat dan vitamin dari bahan2 kotor......tetapi yang peliknya pokok itu semakin menjadi2 buah magganya, semakin kotor airnya, semakin gemuk mangganya....
cuba kita kaitkan dengan kehidupan manusia dengan kisah pokok mangga gemuk tadi...
pernah tak kita tertanya2 kenapa orang yang tidak mengikut hukum2 ALLAH menjadi semakin kaya dan kaya, semakin rakus dan alpa, semakin jahat dan selalu menganiaya? kita tertanya2 kenapa semakin seseorang itu jauh dari ALLAH, semakin banyak kekayaan dan kenikmatan dunia dia dapat?
jawapanya sama dengan kisah si pokok mangga gemuk tadi......memang seseorang itu menjadi semakin kaya dan kaya walaupun melupakan ALLAH, kerana sangat mudah untuk ALLAH memberikan kekayaan kepadanya mana2 hambaNYA, tapi kita harus ingat sumber pokok mangga gemuk itu didapati dari air kotor...begitulah diibaratkan orang yang melakukan kemungkaran tetapi terus terusan mendapat nikmat adalah seperti pokok mangga gemuk yang mendapat air atau baja dari bahan2 kotor...memang sentiasa gemuk dan banyak mangganya...tapi tetap dari sumber kotor...
oleh itu, takpelah kalau pokok mangga itu tak gemuk tapi buahnya sederhana sahaja, tetapi ianya mendapat air yang bersih ataupun di bajakan dengan kasih sayang oleh tuannya...
the moral of the story.....kita fikirlah sendiri...hehehehehe...alkisah untuk hari ini...

how to make a thinker to talk and a talker to think?
so which category are u? a talker or a thinker?
there is no specific nor universal definition on those two, thinker and talker. however, let us presume that a thinker is someone who thinks before he or she talks, a thinker thinks and explores an issue or a matter deeper, in short he or she plans what to say, how to say it and when to say it.
whereas a talker talks...explores an issue or a matter while talking about it, gets idea and concept while talking and do more talking. im not judging saying that a thinker is better and a talker is not, but what im saying is that being just a thinker or a talker does not expand one's horizons or experience, being both is the best....but how do we make a thinker to talk and a talker to think?
it is important to make a talker to think and a thinker to talk as we are dealing with all types of persona in workplace, education institutions, our colleagues, our friends and etc....therefore it is important especially to leaders and educators in knowing how to crack those who have good ideas or judgements but choose to keep it inside their heads and keep those who talk too much to shut up and think about certain matters and think about it and come up with the necessary answers or ideas......confused?
i'm sure that we are facing problems with those who seem to know everything about the world by talking too much and at the same time refuse to listen, and also those who are actually knowledgable but prefer to stay silent...so the followings are some of the possible ways in making a thinker to talk and a talker to think:-
1. Sing a song to a thinker.....motivate them to sing, then they will sing along and just ask them what they think about certain issues or matter....' im sure you have a good idea and im sure that it will be a success once we implement your idea...' (^^;)
2. when a talker couldnt stop talking on certain matter, surprise them with a shocking expression or a statement....for example ask them to 'hush!.....they will immediately stop talking and then you can ask them...'so what do you think the right way to solve this problem other than you blabbering about the world?
so, you probably think that the abovementioned ideas are too crazy and inappropriate...however, give it a try sometime and you'll know what im talking about...heheheheeh...
personally i prefer to be a thinking talker....a talker who thinks...then i get the best of both worlds...a thinker who talks and a talker who thinks...so what say you?

aku tak pernah jeles..tapi kena paksa jeles
apa perasaan kita bila sebenarnya kita tak jeles, tapi kawan kita kata kita jeleskan dia bila dia dengan kawan perempuan lain?
apa maknanya tu? aku melalui satu pengalaman yang sangat pelik. Aku mempunyai ramai kawan lelaki yang baik baik dari segi tingkah laku, tutur bicara dan personality. Tapi aku juga mempunyai seorang kawan yang mana telah aku putuskan persahabatan dengannya...sebabnya biarlah rahsia...
apabila berbicara, memberi pendapat, menyokong penyataan seseorang kawan itu, aku sangat berkobar kobar dan bersungguh2, sehinggakan disalah erti sebagai jeles oleh seorang kawan aku yang pelik ni...
Dia berkali-kali dan berkobar-kobar menekankan yang aku cemburu terhadap kawan2 perempuannya...aku hanya boleh ketawa terbahak-bahak dalam hati...dan aku juga telah berkali kali menekankan yang aku tak pernah jeles, takkan aku nak jeles kat kawan aku sendiri? aku selalu berkata pada dia...kalau i jeles tak kemana pun, dia kata 'memang u jeles', 'kalau jeles mengakulah..'....
aku rasa macam nak menangis bila orang paksa aku kata aku jeles sedangkan aku tak jeles...waaaaaawaaaa...
pasal jeles tu aku tak kisah lagi, tapi aku kena paksa cakap kat kawan aku kalau aku suka dia....adoiiiiii.....kita tak boleh memaksa orang suka kita kan? tapi kalau kawan kita nak tahu jugak samada kita suka dia ke tak? aku pun dah pening.........lama2 aku tak nak kawan lagi dengan kawan aku yang pelik tu.......aku undur diri....aku cari kawan lain lah .....

senyuman saya tak berapa manis...
alkisah aku pergi ke kedai ingin membeli kasut idaman, kasut idaman dijual di kedai Bata...bukan vincci, taichi, kuaci, ataupun nichi.... dan jangan salah sangka Bata asalnya bukan dari Meru Klang, tapi Republik Chech...
setelah puas membelek kasut idaman selama 5 minit....aku memanggil promoter kedai tersebut...sambil tersenyum 45 sen, dia mengambil kasut bersaiz 6 1/2, aku pun dengan gumbiranya membawa kasut tersebut sambil menuju ke kaunter pembayaran....tapi aku disambut dengan muka Cashier yang juga aku rasa merupakan owner branch Bata tersebut seiras muka Arnold tak reti nak eja dikala bertarung aksi ngeri...
maka dengan selambanya aku memberikan cadangan....
'apsal muka masam jek? apa kata senyumlah sikit'...
tiba2 dia menjawab jawapan yang membuatkan aku tak terkejut langsung......
' senyuman saya tak berapa manis'
aku menjawab ' tak salah kalau senyum, tak manis takpe asalkan senyum'...
dengan selamba dia tetap dengan muka selenga dia....
nak aku sambung perbualan tersebut...akan menampakkan yang aku tak faham bahasa malaysia...maklumlah konon2 bahasa malaysia perkataannya panjang2, maka nak di pendekkan aku bertuturlah bahasa Omputih...
oleh itu...kesimpulan cerita aku ni sebenarnya hendak memberitahu tentang tingkah laku dan cara berkomunikasi oran2 yang bekerja di kedai2, tak kisah kedai kasut ke, kedai baju ke, apa kedai sekalipun...mereka melayan pelanggan seperti 'kalau nak beli, beli jelah, tak yang nak pegang2, belek2, tanya2, senyum2, manja2...'...paling best semua pelanggan di anggap sebagai berpotensi untuk mencuri...tu pasal kita tengok barang...diorang tengok tangan kita...hehehehehehe
tapi prinsip aku senang jek...aku hanya akan kembali ke kedai atau membeli barangan di kedai yang mana jurujualnya pandai berkomunikasi dan mengambil hati....
apakah perbezaan2 yang paling utama antara kedai2 yang menjual barangan yang sama?
1. Senyuman yang ikhlas;
2. Komunikasi yang pandai memikat hati pelanggan..
kalau sesiapa antara kamu berjumpa dengan orang yang kata 'senyuman saya tak berapa manis' maka jawablah dengan jawapan berikut...
' senyuman tak manis...tukar lah muka'- (jawapan kurang sopan)
'senyuman tak manis...tambah gula'- ( jawapan sopan lagi santun)
pilihan di tangan anda... (^^;)v

never say never....
have you ever wonder why you seem to attract what you do not want? why we keep on getting what we do not want...what we hate..what we despise.....
let's look at the most common sentences that we have said before :-
- I will never like that kind of guy..
- I will never buy those kind of clothes..
- I will never fall for her/him...
-I will never marry someone who smokes..
-I will never go there..
- Never in a million years, I will love someone like you..
- I will never buy those pair of ugly shoes..
- I will never be late..
- I will never change my work place, my way of living for someone like you...
so, what do you see? can u identify the common word here? yes it is NEVER....
but what happens if you take away the word NEVER...this means that every sentence is actually a positive sentence which wanting to do all those things...
the problem is that ...the brain does not understand the word NEVER...it captures, stores and visualises the subject of the sentence...for example...
- Never in a million years, I will love someone like you = In a million years, I will love someone like you.
- I will never be late = I will be late
- I will never change my workplace, my way of living for someone like you = I will change my workplace and my way of living for someone like you..
so, what should we do now if we do not want to attract the things that we do not want?
ANSWER:
Focus on what you want!!!!
keep on mentioning what you want, so the brain captures, stores, visualises and generates ideas for us to take action...then InsyALLAH we will get what we want...
example:
I will not/never be late = I will be on time
I will never fall for someone like him = I will fall for someone with the characteristics that I want/need
I will never marry someone who smokes = I will marry someone who embraces healty lifestyle..
I will never fall for him/her = I will fall for someone who loves me and understands me for who I am...
the point is....Identify what we want...FOCUS on what we want...Generate alternatives on how to get what we want...Evaluate the alternatives...make decision and take action...
the most important thing is that do not immediately say NEVER.......what say you?

jangan pernah tak mengendahkan kata hati...
kata hati......
jika tidak didengari...ia seolah2 bunyi ketukan tukul besi yang semakin lama semakin kuat bunyinya....
jika dibiarkan akan terjerumuslah kita ke dalam masalah yang tidak sepatutnya...
detikan hati yang pertama apabila bertemu dengan seseorang samada seseorang itu boleh dipercayai atau tidak selalunya benar....jika terdetik hati kita yang seseorang itu kelihatan tajam atau keras karakternya...itulah dia.....jika terdetik hati kita yang seseorang itu kelihatan lembut dan tulus...maka itulah dia..
telah berkali2 aku telah mengenepikan kata hati ku....akibatnya aku yang terluka...
sedangkan hati itu berdetik untuk menyelamatkan aku dari kekecewaan...
tapi apakan daya....aku pasti pertemuan aku dengan dia menjadikan aku orang yang lebih berhati2, bertanggungjawab dan berfikiran universal...aku redha....
setiap seseorang yang kita jumpa adalah cikgu kita...mengajar kita tentang kehidupan...mengajar kita tentang kebaikan dan keburukan..kelebihan dan kekurangan....
lain kali aku akan sedaya upaya mendengar kata hatiku...sekali ia terdetik yang negatif..akan aku tinggalkan ...
kata hati mungkin sangat subjektif...tetapi ia akan di bantu oleh akal untuk menentukan yang kata hati tadi benar atau salah....
kesimpulannya.....semakin bersih hati itu...ia pasti dapat mengenalpasti mana kebenaran dan mana kepalsuan...

Perception
One of my lecturers mentioned that our perception is our reality....hmmm how true..
We see things as we are, not as it is....which means that we allow ourselves to judge others while not taking any effort in getting to know things, people and etc....this goes back to the most fundamental reason which is that we just dont have the time to get to know people, things and whatever it is, therefore we rely on our own experience, stories from our friends and families in order to understand things and people...
as much as we despise those who judge others, we are subconsciously doing it....well, u and i will have to constantly remind ourselves not to make quick conclusions but rather see things as it is...dat is think about what will ALLAH think of us if we judge others with our limited minds...
in my lectures too, i constantly remind my students that it is unfair if we perceive others based on what and how we want to see things, therefore, it is of paramount importance to explore and search for information if we intend to talk about certain topic or matter....coz whatever we say and do...it reflects our personality...
what say you....

Islam concept of Salvation
The Islam concept of Salvation is primarily upon faith, in Islam "Those who believe and do good deeds"..
Our beloved Prophet (pbuh) "All actions are based upon intentions"..
In Islam, it is the 'belief that brings about the action'......
Allah says "The believers you will find praying" He does not say the people who are praying are believers'..
A good friend of mine once gave me a simple and yet deep answer...i asked her 'how do we know that our deeds and prayers are being answered by Allah?...she answered ' it is when we notice ourselves becoming a better person in our conduct'....hmmmmmm i told to myself...yup very true....let's think about this...

fuyoo...
everyday, we are being bombarded with superb, extravagant, mind blowing advertisements of products and services...perhaps it is a norm for businesses and companies to advertise in such a way that it will be embedded in the minds of consumers.. however when it comes to using the products and obtaining the services being offered.....most of the time it's about over promising...under delivering....what say you?
it's like what i always say..
advertisement macam fuyooooooo.....
services macam haiyoooooo.....
(^^;)v

peculiar friend...
i have a friend who is so peculiar in his actions and words dat ive come to realised that there are weird people in this world....i guess we perceived people the way we want it to be...not on how and what they are...think about it...
i'm working on a new song..
yup, now is not the time for me to work on a new song, but i need to write this song and concurrently completing my assignments...DSP, GBE and RM...huhuhuhu.....
the melody is still in progress...however i can only see the need to complete the lyrics first...
