Commit

Hey,

I've seen and met a lot of people with a great idea, they have a big dream, vision, and many ways to get it but they still burn their ass working for someone and do something that they don't like just to get them moving far away from their dream and passion. Do you one of them? I hope not, because it's SUCK. I have been there and I know how it feel, it's like you have a dream to climb Himalaya but you learn how to swim. Stupid isn't it?

I conduct a research, not a formal research with paper and expert tools but just a conversational research with many people that seems lost their dream. I've found out that their biggest obstacle is failed to commit with their dream. Their dreams just a fling or only because they read someone success story then they want to follow the person's way to success. That's not their dream but their way to get rich by following someone's passion not their own passion. Many people who failed in their dream not because their lack of ability but because they failed to commit or we can say lack of commitment.

Some people preparing a lot to get their dreams but no ACTION, they only prepare, prepare, prepare, and so on without the action to do it. They think too much and getting scared if their action failed to achieve "the dream". Time pass by and "the dream" become secondary in their life because they scared to take the first step to move along the road. When they think too much about how to create a perfect business plan or a perfect way to launch, some other people already start it. That's their own fault to thin too many without action. In here they failed to commit with their action.

I don't say that you don't need to think to get your dream, the point is you must do the action even the plan is not perfect, you can make it perfect along the way. If you don't get started then you are finished.

The dream looser always have objection with the condition that they need to achieve their dream. Some of my friend think that "If you don't have money then you can not make your own business" I think this it's bullshit. I have a business that I don't spend a single money in there. My business already run, I give the idea and I found a way to get capital without using my money. You just need to think creative, as long is not illegal you can get the money to make your own business.
Some of my friend also said "If I want to achieve my dream then I need to sacrificed my job" that's another bullshit. Why don't you find a job that going along with your dream?
I have a friend that have a big passion in diving, do you know where do he work? He work in Gili Trawangan Island located in Lombok, Indonesia as a diving instructor. at first He work as a staff that only give the equipment for the customer to dive, He learn a lot from there and commit to fulfill his dream to be able to dive in many areas in Indonesia without worry about the money. Now He is one of the few people in Indonesia that has a diving license and always get the time to dive in a lot of diving areas in Indonesia without spend a single penny. His customer paid all the expenses for Him and He get the equipment for free from the owner of the store He worked at. A few weeks ago I found out that He make his own Villa in Gili Trawangan for diver all around the world. AMAZING isn't it? It's the outcome of commitment

Controlling your own dream is much better that being control by other people dream.
O yeah the pictures at the top are one of the best view in Gilli Trawangan the place where My friend fulfill His dream.

Crazy

Hey,

When did the last time you do something "crazy" in your life? Come think about it I will wait..........

Okay, did you remember it? what it is? is it fun? do you remember every detail of the situation? Crazy in here is not like robbing a bank or do something danger for other people. I mean like party all night long, dancing in the rain, laughing your ass off with your best friend or a stranger, or something extreme like bungee jumping. The point is when did you do something so thrilling and exciting that pump out your adrenalin and make you can't forget that moment?

A lot of people who taking a breath in this world actually not life, they work like a zombie. They do something constant and loose their passion to make a different life even to make them or other people happy. Are you one of that people?
I used to be that people, but I change. I don't want to live in this happy place call earth for nothing. You are live for a purpose, the purpose is to help others, to make a change, to make a better world. It all start with your own existence. Make a little positive difference in your life day by day, then make a positive difference with your family, then with your neighborhood, then with your society, you will be surprised by the amount of positivity you make everyday.

Crazy also can be creating something that most common people says it impossible, remember when most people think that flying is an impossible way to do by human then suddenly BAM!! Wright brothers made a think that can fly, nowadays people call it airplane. Remember when Steve Jobs wanted to make a device so little that can play a lot of song then BAM!! he made an Ipod. Remember when many producer made fun of Beatles saying that people don't want to hear a band that sounds like that, then BAM!! Beatles become a legend. There's a lot of BAM!! that actually make our day like nowadays.

You can make a BAM!! too, create one and make your self great person. All you need is just thinking crazy, be positive, never give up, and enjoying the process. There's a lot of things we can do to make this world a better place. You just need to think!! It's your choice to be a great person or an average person or even a trash.


The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do - Jack Kerouac

Simple way to be Happy

Hey,

Nowadays a lot of people doesn't enjoying their life, they seems to burn their ass to make a lot of money and set aside their happiness. Maybe you did it also but you don't recognize it. We life in a world full of asshole and sometimes we let our feeling to be controlled by the assholes. Sometimes I feel that way also, I feel happy with my day but deep inside me I want something different that can make me happier.

I wanted to make a difference in my life and I hope my way to achieve that can inspire you to do it also. Creating happiness in your life doesn't need a lot of time, you can never too busy to create them. the simplest way to become happy is SMILE, don't wait another people to smile show them how.
Let your guard down.  Talk to someone you don’t know straight from your heart.  Compliment them.  Don’t anticipate awkwardness.  Just be you in that beautiful way only you know and give them the chance to smile and connect with you.
The more you smile at others, the more others will smile at you.  And life’s a lot more pleasant when everyone around you is smiling.

Second, GRATEFUL, appreciate all the good things that happen in your life, no matter how small it is. You are a wonderful creature in the world. I had wrote a post about Hellen Keller and how she survived in this world with her disadvantages in This Post  read it if you forget. Most of us have incredible family members, friends, other loved ones who love us back.  Learn to appreciate what a miracle that is.  Most of us have good health, which is another miracle.  Most of us have eyes, with which to enjoy the amazing miracles of sunsets and nature and beauty all around us.  Most of us have ears, with which to enjoy music, one of the greatest miracles ever.
Be grateful with you had and you will feel happy because of it, I've tried it so it's your turn.

Third, HELP, I don't know the formula with this, but believe me, if you help someone you will feel happy especially if the one that you help feel happy. Try to help the poor, orphan, and the need one. When you see them smile and happy then you will feel happy too. It worked for me and I can enjoying my life, it's a law of attraction the more you help people then the more people will help you and the more happiness lie within your life.

Fourth, ENJOY, yes simple and easy. Enjoy your moment now. Whatever you’re doing, regardless of the circumstances, pay attention and appreciate it.  Reading, writing, talking with a co-worker, walking, driving, eating, typing, running, biking, every little thing that you do in life.  These small moments make up a huge portion of your life.  They can be enjoyed if you open your eyes and ears, and pay attention to what you’re doing.  Happiness is found with steady awareness.

It's your life anyway and you are the only one who can make yourself happy or sad, it's in your brain, if you don't want to be sad then DON'T. Never let other people be the one that controlling your feeling it sucks and not worth it for your life.

Each morning when I open my eyes I feel so grateful because I have another day to be happy. Not every single event have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.

 Have a Happy Life

Communicate

Hey,

Have you ever felt left out from a community or friend zone? or maybe have you ever felt so lonely in a crowded place? Sucks right? it feels like you 're invited to a party but you only know the host of the party but not every one in there. The ambiance is good, the food and drinks are good, but you look like a complete retard because you can't socialize with others.

People live in a social community, it's a destiny that human is a social creature. We interact with others almost every time, in home, office, school, mall, cafe, in a public transportation, everywhere. So, communication is a part of our life and believe me it's so important that can determine the success of our life.

Believe me communication is so DAMN hard if you don't know how to do it, do you ever feel so awkward in the middle of conversation because you don't know what kind of subject that you need to talk with other person? or have you ever been so shy in front of new person or stranger? We describe "stranger" in here as a new person that you need to communicate in order to smooth your life. For example: your new partner in office, your girlfriend/boyfriend's family, your boss, your new client, your new community, people in the party, or people in a wedding party, or new client prospect. but  if you know how to do a smooth communication it then the conversation can be so exciting.

I will give you some tips to make a smooth conversation:

SMILE:

It's the easiest, simple, and free way to start a communication. Smile is a positive sign and almost every    people in the world will give feed back with smile also. Smile and give your hand to introduce your self for a new beginning of conversation, I always do this one when I "Hello my name is Emir Zakiar, I am from .........., what do you think of ................?" you can fill the blank with anything.
Let say you are in the wedding "Hello my name is Emir Zakiar, I am the friends of the bride, what do you think about the decoration of this wedding?"
Let say you are in a company gathering "Hello my name is Emir Zakiar, I am in FMU division, what do you think about the global market nowadays?"
If I already know their name, say their name first before your name in the greeting, I do this; "Hello, Mr/Mrs ........... I am Emir Zakiar, we met at ........ how are you?"
Name is a great sound for other people, they will feel happy if you said their name, it show that you pay attention to them.
and many other way to start a conversation. The key point is you need to be confident when you do it, don't forget to smile, it will give a positive energy to you.

Be Confident

How? at first I always find out the string that attached me from other people, in a company gathering the string is you work in a same company or in a same industry. In a party the string is you and the stranger must be know who the host of the party or the same interest with the music, maybe in the same interest of the lifestyle. In a seminar, the string is you and the stranger have the same interest with the topic of seminar or the speaker. When you talk to your client the string is the interest of the client with your product or the needs of the client and many other things can be the string in a conversation, you must find the string to start a good conversation.
Second, I always think that the person I wanted to have a conversation is also a human being. Sometimes we feel shy in front of our boss, our boyfriend/girlfriend's family, new partner and so on. I always see them as a human being, put aside the status of the other person but still talk in a manner attitude.

Keep Eye Contact

Keep your eyes focus when talk to each other, Have you ever felt being ignored by others? don't like it? so DON'T do it to others!!! eyes is the window of the soul, you can read people by look into their eyes. If you find it hard to keep your eyes focus then you can try to look between their eyes or you can see the color of their eyes. It actually easy to do it if you want to try it.

Be Curious

I always curious about the topic that we talked about, it will give you an endless conversation, but remember always see the other person body gesture, I will talk about body gesture later in another post, if their body gesture shown an uncomfortable sign then it's time to back off from the sensitive subject. Talk about another subject, never be an annoying person that seems wanted to know everything from the other, they have a sensitive subject that they protect from outsider. You still an outsider to them if they don't want to talk about it. remember it.

Listen More

We have two ears and one mouth so we can listen twice as much as we speak. Never make your audience feel you're talking too much and worse they feel you only talking about your self, they don't give a damn about your self, they also need to be listened. Listening actually a great way to know people, we can explore their interest, hobbies, lifestyle, and everything that revolve around them.

That's some of my technique to have  good conversation with others or even a stranger, have you ever talk to a stranger in the street. I had, I did it to increase my communication skill. It worked for me and I hope it will work for you. Try it, feel an adrenalin rush at the beginning but it will train you to become a person with good communication.

That's some of my trick to get a good conversation with other people, try it, you will be surprised with the outcome. Have a great communication skill is a tools to be a successful person, look around you, see with your own eyes who is the person that really success but lack of communication skill? I never found one. If you find one let me know.

Lucky

Hey,

Do you feel lucky? have you ever win a lottery worth like we say $10.000.000? have you ever go to a restaurant and get "congratulation, you are our 100.000 visitors, so you can eat whatever you want for free" things? have you ever get a brand new car or a nice house for free? or the simple thing is have you ever win a prize that been given by a bank or company?

I Never, am I unlucky? NO

Lucky people tend to see the positive side of their ill fortune.  They imagine how things could have been so much worse.  In example, I met a nice and happy person who get a car accident, he received 30 stitches in his head and his arm, his forehead need to get a surgery because it already swollen and bleeding so bad, I felt so sad when see him in the hospital. Did he felt so unlucky and sad? NO

Now, He always smile and said "I 'm so lucky that the accident didn't get my life and I can get along with my future life".

Another interesting example of this is how research suggests that Olympic athletes who win bronze medals are typically happier than their Silver medalist counterparts.  This is because silver medalists think that if they had performed slightly better they might have won a gold medal.  In contrast, bronze medalists focus on how if they’d performed slightly worse, they wouldn’t have won anything.

Having a positive outlook on life is way to get a luckier life. You can feel so much luckier when you see the world in a positive outlook. If your outlook on life is doom and gloom, then that’s all you’ll experience.  Fortunately, the opposite is also true.  You control your luck and your life by controlling your thoughts. It's all begin with the thoughts.

Look around.  Appreciate the things you have right now.  Many people aren’t so lucky.

Have a Lucky day.

Self Employed

Hey,

Do you know what you want in your life? in career? in the next year? the next 5 years? the next 20 years? Take a little time to imagine what your life will be in the future......


done?

Okay, what do you see your self in the future? what kind of job do you have? is it in a big, medium, or small company? or maybe you have your own company? hmmm interesting doesn't it to have your own company. We can say it self-employed.

In self-employed company you can express your idea, you can feel the thrill of competition, you get a lot of experience in the field that maybe you can't get it in the school or in work office. You can also have a flexible time because your hour work depends on your self. The best part about self-employed is generating passive income. Passive income is achieved by applying what you know into a package that can be designed and built once, and then repeatedly sold over and over again.  Finding a unique way to promote and sell this knowledge is the key. Many good things you can get in here, but not everyone can be success in here.

Self-employed success is not the byproduct of working your way up from the ground up.  It’s based on knowing what you want, understanding your abilities and implementing them diligently to achieve your goals.  There are plenty of people who get laid-off from their 9 to 5 day job and end up making millions in a few short years of self-employment.

I want to be frank in here. I am still working in somebody else company, but I have my reason. I want to learn a lot of thing in here, I want to get to know the real market is, I want to expand my connection in here. In the meantime I already started my own business, such as consulting and agriculture, little by little my business getting big. Remember how slow your progress, it's still much better than not do it. I will tell you the detail of my business later on.

So if you still working with someone else it's okay, just don't do it for a long time. Once you feel that you already have enough experience to do your own business BAM go out and be a great entrepreneur.

I always take a look at some of the success stories around me that emerged from nowhere.  These success stories were not initiated by people paying their dues to someone else’s initiatives.  These success stories revolve strictly around perception and choice.  The people in these stories know their capabilities, what they’re doing, and what they want.  Once people make this realization, and the conscious choice to act on it, the possibilities for success are limitless.

Failure is Good

Hey,

Have you ever feel like a looser? have you ever lost in a game? competition? had a fail subject in college? broke up with your love one? bankrupt in business? someone tricked you that make you lost your money even though you really trust this person?

I had

I will tell you the detail in my next post, in here I am trying to tell you that being a looser or make a mistake is a good things that could be happen in our life.  I learn so many from the failure that happened in my life. I am glad that I can become a better man because of this shit that happened in my life.

No matter how many I fail at least I can find the positive in the failure. If I failed to get a job, I ask the employer what the reason they rejected me so I can introspecting my self. If I lost a project then I see what going wrong in here, maybe my way of approaching  really bad or maybe my product is suck. I can learn a lot of things from my failure than my success.

Don't be afraid to fail, it's a circle of life. I know that it's so hard to do to accept fail. I was in a state of depression when my friend that I trust so much tricked me and make me loss a big sum of money.  I need a couple of months to forget it, get going in life and be great. It's no used to reminisce the past, you live in present and you run to the future. We use the past to learn the life for present, and we do great things in present for our future. That's the way of life. Be great and be fabulous in life so when you old you can say to the past "I am great now bitch!!" 

I always remember this one when I failed:

No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow you progress, you are still way ahead of everyone who isn’t trying.

Grateful

Hey,

I had a great holiday in the last two days, I went to Bandung. The great part was I can spend my holiday with my beloved wife and my lovely son. My son had his first swim in there. Really happy to see him swimming around and splashing water. It's a joy and he's a miracle for me and my wife.

In life, we seldom to compare happiness in term of wealth, I used to be that kind of person too. but after I saw my little family laughing and having fun, I felt that this is the real happiness and wealth will eventually come to you if you're happy.

I know that with money we can do whatever we want, but it never enough. If you don't be grateful with every little things that you have then you will life in fear searching for happiness that it's exactly already near you. Money, wealth, and health will come to you eventually if you're happy. SO BE HAPPY.

O yeah the picture in the top is my baby swimming around. Love it.

Have a Happy day.

Comfort Zone

Hey,

I kinda bored with my daily work, it's too monotone. I always do the usual job and never have the chance to do something different.  Sometimes I feel that my zone of work is too comfort or I can say that i work in comfort zone, and believe me IT SUCKS!! Have you ever feel this way? let me know : )

Comfort zone sometimes can be a reason someone willing to stay in one company and afraid to move to another company. Sometimes comfort zone make a businessman afraid to make another business or try different kind of business. Comfort zone is evil you know. it make us an average person and hard to make a progrees to be a better us.

Comfort zone is like you live like a bird in a golden cage, your master always feed you and give you water, your master always clean your cage and you only need to chirping a good melody and make your master pleased. You never see the real beauty of the world, you never fly away to the sky and see a great scenery from above.

A lot of people will make a different tomorrow, bitch please, do it NOW!! I will do it now, I want to be like a free bird, fly away in the sky, see a great scenery, meet another creature, and feel a new adventure.

Listen

Hey,

Nowadays, a lot of people tend to say and express what they thinking without think first. They said what they feel and just give a little attention to what others said. It sad you know, God created two ear and one mouth so we should listen more than talk more.

I have a friend who always talk and never listen to what people said to him, he think that his idea is the best idea. Maybe you have that friend, colleague, mate, or business partner that did that also. What did you feel? sucks right? You feel that the man or women didn't pay attention to your idea or problem, you feel that the person only wanted to listen what he or she wanted to listen. Talk when you ready to talk not when you feel that you must to talk.

Let get real now, listen more than talking. Sometimes a great person is the one who can comprehend the meaning inside the words that someone else talk. The key to inter-personal skill is to listening to what other people said.

I have a great quote from a great man, he said:

"I like to listen, I have learned a great deal from listening carefully. Most people never listen" - Ernest Hemingway.

Scenery

Hey,

World is a beautiful place to live. Many different places and many beautiful places. Sometimes I go around and take a break from my routine just to enjoying the view of this beautiful world.

Why don't you just relax and go out, see some scenery, see some beauty, enjoying life. It's a vitamin for your brain and soul.

LOVE

Hey,

In life, we need to balancing our work life and our love life. Don't you dare to spend your life only in work, it's sad you know.. It's a destiny for us human being to have love and to be loved.
Here are twelve simple reminders to help you keep them on course, I got it from Josh Liba.

1. All successful relationships require some work. – They don’t just happen, or maintain themselves.  They exist and thrive when the parties involved take the risk of sharing what it is that’s going on in their minds and hearts.  Open communication and honesty is the key.  (Read The Road Less Traveled.)
2. Most of the time you get what you put in. – If you want love, give love.  If you want friends, be friendly.  If you’d like to feel understood, try being more understanding.  It’s a simple practice that works.
3. You shouldn’t have to fight for a spot in someone’s life. – Never force someone to make a space in their life for you, because if they know your worth, they will create one for you.
4. There is a purpose for everyone you meet. – Some people will test you, some will use you, and some will teach you; but most importantly some will bring out the best in you.  Learn to see and accept the differences between these people, and carry on accordingly.
5. We all change, and that’s okay. – Our needs change with time.  When someone says, “You’ve changed,” it’s not always a bad thing.  Sometimes it just means you stopped living your life their way.  Don’t apologize for it.  Instead, be open and sincere, explain how you feel, and keep doing what you know in your heart is right.
6. You are in full control of your own happiness. – If your relationship with yourself isn’t working, don’t expect your other relationships to be any different.  Nobody else in this world can make you happy.  It’s something you have to do on your own.  And you have to create your own happiness first before you can share it with someone else.  If you feel that it’s your partner’s fault, think again, and look within yourself to find out what piece is missing.  Your partner can never ‘complete’ you because you are already whole.  The longing for completion that you feel inside comes from being out of touch with who you are.  (Read Stumbling on Happiness.)
7. Forgiving others helps YOU. – Forgiveness is not saying, “What you did to me is okay.”  It is saying, “I’m not going to let what you did to me ruin my happiness forever.”  Forgiveness is the answer.  It doesn’t mean you’re erasing the past, or forgetting what happened. It means you’re letting go of the resentment and pain, and instead choosing to learn from the incident and move on with your life.
8. You can’t change people; they can only change themselves. – Instead of trying to change others, give them your support and lead by example.  If there’s a specific behavior someone you love has that you’re hoping disappears over time, it probably won’t.  If you really need them to change something, be honest and put all the cards on the table so this person knows what you need them to do.
9. Heated arguments are a waste of time. – The less time you spend arguing with the people who hurt you, the more time you’ll have to love the people who love you.  And if you happen to find yourself arguing with someone you love, don’t let your anger get the best of you.  Give yourself some time to calm down and then gently discuss the situation.  (Read The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.)
10. You are better off without some people. – When you have to start compromising yourself and your morals for the people around you, it’s probably time to change the people around you. If someone continuously mistreats you or pushes you in the wrong direction, have enough respect for yourself to walk away from them. It may hurt for a little while, but it’ll be ok. You’ll be ok, and far better off in the long run.
11. Small gestures of kindness go a long way. – Honor your important relationships in some way every chance you get.  Every day you have the opportunity to make your relationship sweeter and deeper by making small gesture to show your appreciation and affection.  Remember, making one person smile can change the world.  Maybe not the whole world, but their world.  Your kindness and gratitude matters.
12. Even the best relationships don’t last forever. – People don’t live forever.  Appreciate what you have, who loves you and who cares for you.  You’ll never know how much they mean to you until the day they are no longer beside you.  And remember, just because something doesn’t last forever, doesn’t mean it wasn’t worth your while.

FACE it man!!

Hey,

Have you ever felt so depress? have an issue or problem that you think it's really bad that make you feel like a tuna in a can? Full of pressure and you only let it go and you feel that Time will changes everything?

Time won't changes anything!!! Remember it.

"That what people say, it's not true. Doing things changes things. Not doing things leaves thing exactly like they were" - Dr. House

Go face your problem, repair it, find the opportunity from it, learn from it, take granted from it. Life is like a roller coaster, up and down but you can open your eyes and feel the thrill or you can closed your eyes and missed the thrill.

HAPPY

Hey,

Nowadays, people rarely happy with their life, why?? We only life once so we must walk through the path in happiness. I found this one great article about How to be Happy.
It was conducted by positivity psychologist Sonja Lyubomirsky, she point to 12 things happy people do differently to increase their levels of happiness.

1. Express gratitude. – When you appreciate what you have, what you have appreciates in value.  Kinda cool right?  So basically, being grateful for the goodness that is already evident in your life will bring you a deeper sense of happiness.  And that’s without having to go out and buy anything.  It makes sense.  We’re gonna have a hard time ever being happy if we aren’t thankful for what we already have.
2.  Cultivate optimism. – Winners have the ability to manufacture their own optimism.  No matter what the situation, the successful diva is the chick who will always find a way to put an optimistic spin on it.  She knows failure only as an opportunity to grow and learn a new lesson from life.  People who think optimistically see the world as a place packed with endless opportunities, especially in trying times.
3. Avoid over-thinking and social comparison. – Comparing yourself to someone else can be poisonous.  If we’re somehow ‘better’ than the person that we’re comparing ourselves to, it gives us an unhealthy sense of superiority.  Our ego inflates – KABOOM – our inner Kanye West comes out!  If we’re ‘worse’ than the person that we’re comparing ourselves to, we usually discredit the hard work that we’ve done and dismiss all the progress that we’ve made.  What I’ve found is that the majority of the time this type of social comparison doesn’t stem from a healthy place.  If you feel called to compare yourself to something, compare yourself to an earlier version of yourself.
4. Practice acts of kindness. – Performing an act of kindness releases serotonin in your brain.  (Serotonin is a substance that has TREMENDOUS health benefits, including making us feel more blissful.)  Selflessly helping someone is a super powerful way to feel good inside.  What’s even cooler about this kindness kick is that not only will you feel better, but so will people watching the act of kindness.  How extraordinary is that?  Bystanders will be blessed with a release of serotonin just by watching what’s going on.  A side note is that the job of most anti-depressants is to release more serotonin.  Move over Pfizer, kindness is kicking ass and taking names.
5. Nurture social relationships. – The happiest people on the planet are the ones who have deep, meaningful relationships.  Did you know studies show that people’s mortality rates are DOUBLED when they’re lonely?  WHOA!  There’s a warm fuzzy feeling that comes from having an active circle of good friends who you can share your experiences with.  We feel connected and a part of something more meaningful than our lonesome existence.
6. Develop strategies for coping. – How you respond to the ‘craptastic’ moments is what shapes your character.  Sometimes crap happens – it’s inevitable.  Forrest Gump knows the deal.  It can be hard to come up with creative solutions in the moment when manure is making its way up toward the fan.  It helps to have healthy strategies for coping pre-rehearsed, on-call, and in your arsenal at your disposal.
7. Learn to forgive. – Harboring feelings of hatred is horrible for your well-being.  You see, your mind doesn’t know the difference between past and present emotion.  When you ‘hate’ someone, and you’re continuously thinking about it, those negative emotions are eating away at your immune system.  You put yourself in a state of suckerism (technical term) and it stays with you throughout your day.
8. Increase flow experiences. – Flow is a state in which it feels like time stands still.  It’s when you’re so focused on what you’re doing that you become one with the task.  Action and awareness are merged.  You’re not hungry, sleepy, or emotional.  You’re just completely engaged in the activity that you’re doing.  Nothing is distracting you or competing for your focus.
9. Savor life’s joys. – Deep happiness cannot exist without slowing down to enjoy the joy.  It’s easy in a world of wild stimuli and omnipresent movement to forget to embrace life’s enjoyable experiences.  When we neglect to appreciate, we rob the moment of its magic.  It’s the simple things in life that can be the most rewarding if we remember to fully experience them.
10. Commit to your goals. – Being wholeheartedly dedicated to doing something comes fully-equipped with an ineffable force.  Magical things start happening when we commit ourselves to doing whatever it takes to get somewhere.  When you’re fully committed to doing something, you have no choice but to do that thing.  Counter-intuitively, having no option – where you can’t change your mind – subconsciously makes humans happier because they know part of their purpose.
11. Practice spirituality. – When we practice spirituality or religion, we recognize that life is bigger than us.  We surrender the silly idea that we are the mightiest thing ever.  It enables us to connect to the source of all creation and embrace a connectedness with everything that exists.  Some of the most accomplished people I know feel that they’re here doing work they’re “called to do.”
12. Take care of your body. – Taking care of your body is crucial to being the happiest person you can be.  If you don’t have your physical energy in good shape, then your mental energy (your focus), your emotional energy (your feelings), and your spiritual energy (your purpose) will all be negatively affected.  Did you know that studies conducted on people who were clinically depressed showed that consistent exercise raises happiness levels just as much as Zoloft?  Not only that, but here’s the double whammy… Six months later, the people who participated in exercise were less likely to relapse because they had a higher sense of self-accomplishment and self-worth.

Come try it and I hope it will give you happiness to walk through the life.

Have a Happy day

CRAZY

Hey,

I had a crazy idea one time, it's make a new ending with one of the event in Indonesia, I made a new suggestion about the ending. I felt the ending always dark and simple, so I make a fireworks. Even though if my idea get rejected I will pay the fireworks with my own money because it worth it.

I was so happy when the committee agree with my idea, so we develop it and make the ending become happier and give the spectator a "WOW" event. It become word of mouth and the fireworks become the routine ending in the events.

Sometimes you need to make a crazy idea to show that you capable of the work. Take a sample with some of great people,
Bill Gates: He wanted to make everyone have their computer in their desk.
Thomas Alva Edison: He wanted to make a thing that can give light in the night.
Steve Jobs: He wanted to make a new experience in listening to the music.

"The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do" - Jack Kerouac.

I want to make a change in the world, so I will make a lot of crazy ideas, what about you?

Change it

Hey,

Change; simple and short word but it's so damn hard to do. In order to survive in this crazy world we need to adapt with the environment. I mean with environment is people around us, our colleague, people who interact with us, and everything that move around us.

A lot of successful person are the one who can change and adapt to environment. Let's take an example, nowadays twitter become one of the fastest media to gather information and selling product. Off-line become the new kick-ass way to gather profit. With the changing of technology, only the one that can taking for granted with this new technology will survive.

Make your self easy to accept change and take the benefit from it, you will succeed. Change come first to your self. Change your way of thinking and you will change the world.

"Change will not come if we wait  for some other person or some other time" - Barrack Obama.

Believe it

Hey,

I was wondering why all the great people in who lived in the past can make into history. They make a great idea and implemented it for the future. Some of them make many great ideas, let imagine if life without lamp. We must thanked to Thomas Alva Edison for the his great invention.

Don't forget Hellen Keller, when she was in 19 months of life she got a disease that made her blind and deaf. She learn her education from braille word. She learnt English, German, Greece, and Latin language all from Braille. In the age of 20 she attend Radcliffe college, branch of Harvard University and graduated and predicted magna cum laude. She made 12 books, and for the info, she made her first book in the age of eleven.

She established American Foundation for the Blind dan American Foundation for the Overseas Blind and traveling to 39 countries to talk to the president of each countries to make a fund raising for the blind and deaf people.

I always remember one of her quote:
"I am only one; but still I am one. I may not be able to do everything, but still I can do something" Hellen Keller.

So guys, remember that you are special. You come to this world to be something and to make a difference. Believe it and you will make a difference.

Have a Splendid day

Hey, Focus man

Hey,

I have some weaknesses aren't all the people also have weaknesses? I want to tell you one of my weakness is the lack of FOCUS. I have a  lot of dream and goal in my life, the sad part for being a man with many dreams is lack of focus.

This time I want to do plan A but suddenly I turn around and do plan B, it's the root of boredom. Let me give you example; I used to love about finances, in bachelor degree I took management concentrated in finance. I felt that this is my world. time goes by and I felt like average people in this kind of business. So I took master degree, I took magistrate of management concentrated in marketing. I like the knowledge in marketing. After I graduated I can't focus about the field that I'm going to take. LACK of FOCUS.

How I overcome it?

I create my dream, How I life in the next 20 years, 10 years, 5 years, next years. Who is my business partner, who is my peers, what kind of business that I take, and so on. Now I'm focusing not on the path that I will take but on the Goal, the path can be mixed and diversified.

"Some People focus on what they're going through, Champion focus on what they are going to"
