Hehehe... I am surprised.

Dear Ezwa,

Hihihi...I'm writing this for you. I just found out that you leave a comment to wish me Selamat Hari Raya....Thank you very much. Really appreciated it walaupun lambat baru nampak that comment.

I am surprised because I actually don't expect anybody to masuk this blog since there's nothing much to see here and I am writing for my ownself...seronok sendiri.

Tapi bila ada orang leave comment alah...rasa segan ler pulak.....

Anyway, Ezwa...thanks. I really spent really less time to write for this blog or others blog. What to do...always busy with I also don't know what things...okay, let me figure out that portion yer :-)

Being sick

2 minggu lepas, I've been very sick. First got flu, cough. Then got fever and then gastric. Well, when gastric come in place, I've become so sick. Nak makan langsung tak boleh dan bila makan muntah....and when you cannot eat...then no life man...

It makes me realize of how important health is.....at the point when He took back your desire to eat, took back your health, then you'll knew of how precious a simple thing called health and a simple thing called appetite....

Since dah rasa sakit for almost 2 weeks and now still have that flu,I will certainly very much appreciate my health and try my best to take care of it.

The last time when I fall sick is somewhere in 1998. Wow....I certainly have good health and very seldom fall sick...ini sume rezeki tapi sekali dapat sakit...mak ooooi .....rasa cam nak mati dah. I just can't imagine how are those peoples yang suffer for more chronic punyer penyakit, get to continue their life..They must be very strong. As for me, kena sakit sket dah meraung cam nak mati, lum kena sakit yang lebih serious, mintak dijauhkan.

Anyway, setiap ujian tuh kalu dah memang jatuh kat kita pastilah ujian tuh yang memang boleh kita dihadapi. Need to believe that.

And for every single thing that you get, learn to be grateful. Every single thing is a blessings and don't be too late to bersyukur with all this blessings until the day when you don't have it anymore...

Yeah, everybody's gotta grow up sometime

Why can't I?

New notebook

I am writing today using my own notebook....wahhhh really happy :-) Got to go to bed.

Do you often feel envy?

Do you often feel envy? Yes I am!

 

At my work place, there's a guy, young, good looking, good body and born in a rich family. Emmm I was thinking to myself, how does it feel to be like this people? You're attractive, smart and rich and of course, you drive sports car. Will all these qualities, I think he can get any girl that he wants. So, I think the sun must be always shining, the skies must be always bright for this kind of person. I am envy L

 

But it is not that I am not grateful being myself and what I have but things must be really good and easy for these kind of people and that is why I am envy. For examples, when you attend an interview, if you’re good looking and with brain of course, certainly you will stood up among other candidates. It’s natural, everybody loves to see good things maa… but if you’re not good looking then you will have to really convince the interviewer or else you can beat the one with looks. This is what I think…But then yeahhh many people said that looks is not the only factor to be consider. I agreed, but then still having good looks is the advantages.

 

But anyway, I am envy of course, because I am not in the category of those having good looks….and I always wonder how it feels to be one them…ehmmm must be good neh…

 

Yelah…but that does not mean that I’ll go for plastic surgery :-/ and always remember, despite of having good looks, there are so many other things out there that could become your advantages, that could make you shine from others. So, if you don’t have the look, try and search for other qualities that will be your strength and focus on that strength!! I am still searching for my strength…no wonder I am so envy lohh…

Motivation - Three Ways to Motivate in the Face of Disaster

There are times in life when you will be staring disaster right in the eye. These are the times to either run away and tuck your head under a rock or use your situation as a motivational tool. When you are working with a group of people, it is even more important for someone to step up when struck with a disaster and motivate the group to go on. This may occur in your workplace or even in your family life. The motivator role is one that can be filled by different people at different times. If you are overdue to take on the role, consider learning these three ways to motivate in the face of disaster, just in case the opportunity presents itself. You will be ready to be the group motivator when you learn what to do beforehand.

Be Confident

The most important thing you 
can do during a disaster to motivate people is to present yourself in a confident manner. If you are at work and your team is about to lose a major deal for the company, just remain confident that everything will get done in time. With you putting off that confident vibe, your other team members will be able to stress less and get more productive. When they are working without the stress they will be able to accomplish more and you will likely meet that deadline. If you stress out yourself, everyone will waste time worrying and not working.

If you are at home and have a natural weather disaster or a family crisis, you will need to motivate your family just as you motivate your co-workers. Your family will need someone to be confident that no matter what happens, everything will work out. If a fire damages your home, be confident that you will find another place to stay while the home is repaired. If you are faced with a family death, show how confident you are that healing will begin and everyone will be able to deal with the death eventually. When disaster hits at home, it can be difficult to stay confident. Even if you are not confident, just pretend to be so your family will be motivated to move on and heal.

Lead by Example

A great way to show people that motivation can help a situation that could be disastrous is to lead by example. Show co-workers that even if you are having a work disaster that you will continue to do the best job you can. By voicing what needs to be done and by actually doing it yourself, you will be able to motivate them to do the same. When a team is lead by example they are strong and more productive. The same can be done at home. If your spouse has lost their job and you need to cut back on unnecessary spending, show your family you are dedicated to the task by not taking your weekly manicure.

Turn Up the Positive Attitude

It is proven that people can be motivated when influenced by a positive attitude. Ignoring the potential disaster is not a great idea. You can discuss it and be clear about what could happen if necessary. However, after the discussion, you should put it aside and get on with life in a positive way. Talk with positive dialogue and smile a lot. By showing that despite everything you will be positive, you will in turn influence those around you to be positive as well. When you have a positive attitude you will accomplish more than others with a less than positive attitude. Be sure not to overdo the positive attitude to the point where people dont take you seriously however. Practice adding just enough of a positive outlook to your normal attitude.

Use these three things when you are staring at disaster and want to motivate those around you. You might be surprised to know that while you are trying to motivate those around you, you will be motivated yourself. Concentrate on these three tips and remember to apply them in difficult situations. Remember that there will still be people who need to worry or grieve in order to get through situations. But, there will also be many people who are motivated by your confidence, leadership, and positive attitude.

FW: [warga_kilang] Motivation - Keep Your Eyes on a Goal to Stay Motivated

A good article on motivation I get from a yahoogroup.

 

Regards,

Rahayu


Subject: [warga_kilang] Motivation - Keep Your Eyes on a Goal to Stay Motivated

 

Motivation - Keep Your Eyes on a Goal to Stay Motivated

What will keep you motivated toward your goal? The answer, keep your eyes on it. Never lose site of what you are working toward. Look at the picture and the reward you will reap when you finally reach your goal. Goals seem so far in the future and so hard to reach unless you break them down into small steps that allow you to track your progress.

Action creates motivation, so if you want to stay motivated, stay actively working on that goal. The more you work on it, the more motivated it keeps you. In addition, remember, there is an attractive prize at the end, whether its weight loss, better health or a project you want to accomplish.

Setting goals in small steps can keep you motivated to continue toward the big project. Make the goals so they can be charted and you 

can watch the progress of what youre working toward. Make concrete goals that are measurable. If youre writing a book, set a goal to complete a chapter a week, or a day if you have the time to do it. Set a goal for the month such as I want to write 15 chapters this month. At the end of the month, you can look at your manuscript and see if you made your goal. If you did, make it a little higher for the next month. Stretch yourself but be practical. If the coming month has two holidays, three birthdays and two public appearances, then cut back on the goal so you can reach it. If your goals are set too high, it can be frustrating if you are not reaching them and you are more likely to give up. They also shouldnt be too easy, a challenge will keep you motivated to keep typing away on those pages with the end of the book in mind.

Are you having fun while working toward your goal? We need a break from a project, even if its something we want with all our heart. If you are working on a weight loss and exercise goal, vary what youre doing. If you always use a stationary bike each day, why not change the routine and map out a mile or two to walk in your neighborhood. They say variety is the spice of life and it can keep your motivation going if you change your timetable around a little bit. Are you used to studying or writing in the evening? Try waking up early in the morning and spending quiet time before the busyness of the day takes over.

Involve your friends and family in your project. You are more likely to stay motivated if you have told someone what your goals are. If you are exercising or walking, find a partner. It will make it much more probable that you will continue to walk at a specified time and go to the gym. If you fail to show up, your partner will motivate you to come the next time. You are held accountable to someone else. If you are working alone, if you decide to not exercise or not write, you will only have yourself to shake things up and give you the push you need to get started again.

Dont let discouragement take your eyes off the final goal. Sure, if were dieting there are going to be times when we fall off the eating plan. Instead of getting mad or discouraged, simply accept it as something that happens to everyone and go on to the next day. Dont get down on yourself or feel guilty or ashamed. Enjoy that dessert and remind yourself of the bigger goal of being in the perfect bathing suit by summer. Have you not worked on your graduate thesis for a week? Enjoy your time off, remember what youre working for, and work harder when you start up again.

Expect to reach a point when your plateau on a weigh loss program, get bored with the great novel you are writing, or get tired of depriving yourself of some wants to save for that dream vacation. When you reach that point, accept it, know that it happens to everyone and if you dont allow discouragement to set in, you can soon pick up where you left off.

Dont beat yourself up if you dont make your goals, set new ones, and keep your eyes on the final prize, that one big goal you have been working for and then enjoy your life.

You lead a balance life?

Have you ever think to yourself or ask yourself whether you lead a
balance life or not? Or to the Muslim, may be the right question is
whether you balance the "dunia" and the "akhirat"?

As for me, as a Muslim, no, not balance. I think I focus more on the
"dunia" things compared to the "akhirat" things. But why am I leading
this not balance life when I am totally aware that this "dunia" is only
temporary, akhirat jua yang kekal selamanyer.

And what did I do in my daily life to ensure that I've got the best
place in "akhirat" later? And how many % of my life did I spend on this?
Have you ever think of this?

The world is a temporary thing, it is an examination hall where you'll
sit for the exam and if you get good grade, you'll go to "syurga" and if
you don't, you'll go to hell. And I knew this right from the beginning
and still I did not study for the exam.

Isn't weird?

Yesterday - The beatles

Yesterday
(Lennon/McCartney)

Lead vocal: Paul

~~~

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be,
There's a shadow hanging over me.
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say.
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say.
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm.

Kasih ibu

Writing this for Komuniti OKU.

 

Assalammualaikum to all muslims members and Salam sejahtera to all non muslims members

 

Pagi tadi saya dengar radio Sinar dan dengar luahan hati Dr Kamal. Dr Kamal bercakap mengenai kasih ibunya terhadapnya. Tentang bagaimana ibunya meninggalkan dia di sebuah asrama untuk pelajar buta di Pulau Pinang ketika umur 8 tahun, dan ditinggalkan di bawah jagaan orang asing. Sebagai tanda protes, dia menghantukkan kepalanya ke dinding, kena 13 jahitan. Saya rasa saya boleh bayangkan perasaan ibu Dr Kamal ketika itu. Ibu mana yang ingin berjauhan dengan anaknya. Ibu mana yang mahu membiarkan anaknya keseorangan. Kalau boleh seorang ibu mahu anaknya sentiasa di depan matanya. Tetapi kerana dia seorang ibu juga, dia mahu yang terbaik buat anaknya dan kerana itu ibu berkorban dan merelakan perpisahan dia dengan anaknya. Kalau anda seorang ibu, anda akan tahu bagaimana perasaannya.

 

Dan Dr Kamal, ibu anda pasti sangat berbangga dengan anda.

 

Dan kepada semua yang masih mempunyai ibu,

Ibu anda mungkin bukan ibu yang terbaik di dunia, ibu anda juga mungkin bukan seperti yang anda mahukan, ibu anda mungkin banyak kelemahan pada pandangan mata anda dan anda mungkin kerap kali bertelingkah dengan ibu anda dan tidak faham mengapa ibu anda melakukan sesetengah perkara. Jika ini yang berlaku, anda tidak perlu memahami ibu anda, anda hanya perlu mengasihi dan menyokong ibu anda. Mungkin suatu hari nanti, apabila anda dapat melihat ibu dengan mata hati anda, melihat ibu dengan penuh kasih sayang, mungkin nanti anda akan dapat memahami ibu anda.

 

Saya hanya memahami hati ibu apabila saya sendiri bergelar ibu.

 

Dan sementara ibu masih ada, kasihanilah ibu, kerana walau macammanapun ibu anda, dia tetap punya hak terhadap kasih sayang anda. Dengan itu berikanlah hak ibu, bukan hanya pada hari ibu…..

I have abandoned this blog

Today, I felt lazy, bored and wondering what it's like if this is my
last day working with this company. Today, is my friend's last day here.
And today when I woke up in the morning, the first thing that came into
my mind is how do I felt if I were in my friend's shoes. Wondering, when
would be my last day.......

I believed, I need to go out too, I need to see new environment, see new
peoples, do new things....after 7 years, I am exhausted, not because of
the work but because of the environment may be...so in order to move on,
I need to tender my resignation and get out from here.

But that does not come in soon, as I have a lot of other obstacles
before I can make that 1 decision that may help to change my entire
life.

Anyway, life goes on, so I need to think of how to make my life a lot
interesting, exciting?? And life is about making choices...so, what am I
doing here?

Regards,
Rahayu

My lovely Adibah


I really like this photo of Adibah because she's looking at the camera, making her looks like a normal kid. It is very difficult to get her to look at the camera, of course she's blind. Anyway, really loves the photo and loves Adibah very much, of course. The world may not be for her, but paradise is a gurantee for her.

A walk in the cloud

A walk in the cloud

 

Emmm....lately I've been very busy, with work especially....no more time to spend on the blog. Anyway, last week, when I was at home at night watching TV, I've bump into a movie title "A walk in a cloud", Keanu Reeves is the actor. Hmmm the title sounds familiar....Then suddenly I've remembered, it was, more then 10 years ago, when I was in the first year in UTM. We have to attend English class and in this English class, we have buddy. This buddy functioned as a person that will listen to what we called as short essay that we used to write in the class. It was fun because I have Haresh as my buddy and he was handsome too.....

 

But then Haresh has to leave UTM, to a new college somewhere is KL area. After he left UTM, for a first few month we still keep in touch and one day we go out for a date. Hahahaha....I couldn't imagine going out with someone like Haresh, but then I did. And we watch movie...I wanted to watch "a walk in the cloud" but Haresh said he did not like that movie. Actually I did not know that movie is about what and I only know that Keanu Reeves is in that movie. So, on that day, we did not watched Keanu Reeves but we watched another movie that I can't remembered what the title is…..

 

The ironic thing is, after more then 10 years, I finally got a chance to watch that movie. And that night, I’ve watched “A walk in the cloud” till to the end. I hope one day I’ll meet Haresh, but I don’t think we will recognize each other, since we’re not so close in those old days and of course many things have changed since we last met. Anyway, I still hope that when we meet each other one day, we will knew each other or at least feels it in the heart J

Rahayu
