Time! Time! Time!

Assalamualaikum

1. Remember I told you about conference in Helsinki to make time slower? Most of participants were musician, academician. Where is Banker? Technocrat? Corporate people. They don't bother to improve quality of life because they don't have life!

2. I hope Abang MB deal go through so that he will have more time (for those who know only). Is that mean my experiment going success and the effect spill to other people? Wait and see..

3. I still got 24 hours a day like you all but then time is relative. You sit next to a beautiful young girl, 3 hours is nothing but you sit on fire, 3 second is forever!

4. If man really want something especially a woman, they can always find time for it. P Ramlee already tought us 40 years ago. Why not use the same desire to do other thing as well?

5. A carpenter was asked while he is sawing a wood, why not he sharpen his saw? He answered that he has no time to stop. That was long time ago. If now, he might being asked like this- why not you use machine? and he still answer the same. Are we like this carpenter? then why so many people using cash at toll machine while they can use touch n go? Why small portion only use internet banking?

And god knows better..

Time! Time! Time!

Assalamualaikum

1. Our challenge is to make time for things than we planned. It could be our chilly project or it could be time for our family. To make thing worst, most of us already have second job. I don't blame you. I know its a though job to meet month end. Me too but actually I don't care anymore about salary day. Yes, while we were younger, we're always looking forward for a pay cheque day. But after so many years, it doesn't matter anymore- not because of the pay cheque are much much bigger but because it remind us to settle our commitment which much2 bigger!



2. I read in newspaper recently about a conference in Helsinki on how to make time slower. At first glance I thought there are scientists who work hard researching how to make time slower. Actually what they mean is how to make our quality of life better. How true it is! I wish I was there..

3. Few days ago, I saw a young man riding his motorcycle on Plus highway. I was riding my bike too toward home in Kajang after a long day at office. You know KL-Kajang hiway is always jammed. While, I'm concentrating riding my bike, this fellow just simply using one hand to ride, while the other hand busying replying SMS! I'm not wonder anymore if just answering call, but he is typing a message! Are we really short of time?? And his wife (I presume) was at the back of the bike some more..

4. Steven Covey says there are four quadrum of time management base on our action:
a. Urgent, Important
b. Urgent, Not important
c. Not urgent, Important
d. Not urgent, Not important

Which quadrant you put your energy/ time more? Steven Covey says most people spend much time to settle a and b and less time for c and d. Eventually they become squeeze and stressed. He add that we should spend more on quadrant C, so that we can have more time in future and complete more tasks

5. I don't want to bore you with so much details on the hypothesis/ view/ opinion of all this motivator but I got a good news for you. Actually there is a way to get more time! I'm doing an experiment now and it looks fantastic! I'll share later on..

And god knows better..

Circle of Influence

Circle of Influence- things I can do to improve situation

Circle of concern - things I have no direct control

Assalamualaikum

1. Thanks Abang MB for your good writings. I think you should write more because you have talents and your writing style is simply great! I still remember once you said , we always think to change other people. Why not we look at ourself first and start to change from there. How true it is!

2. We go to work everyday and try so hard to change our staff. We get back home and try hard to change our wife and our children. We try to change our siblings. We try to change our neighbour, our community and so on and so forth. The list will never end. At the end of the day we feel so tired and upset. Eventually we found that we have no control over other people..

3. Only one person left to us to change. Ourself! Can we change this one person? Can we control him or her?

4. A beggar meet a succesful and merciful man at his office and ask for money. The successful man said that he can help the beggar that time but at the same time he want him to meet a great man who can really help the beggar forever. The beggar was astonished and being led to a small room with a huge mirror. He saw nobody and ask where is the great man? The successul man show the mirror and told the beggar only that man can help him forever! He gave the money to the beggar to buy some new cloth and food. That really touch the beggar and after three years he was changed to a successful businessman..

5. Steven Covey says -work within your circle of influence, not your cirle of concern. Your circle of influence will become bigger and bigger. How true it is! So friend, lets do it. Lets work on our circle of influence. It could be only ourselves right now! doesn't matter, give it a try and see whether Steven Covey tell us the truth or not. I bet he is. Don't tell me that you don't have circle of inluence at all! (actually many people don't have so they work on the circle of concern)
