Old friend and Dale Carnegie

I was introduced to Dale Carnegie book by my friend Diya. I love her. Let me tell about her. I met her in matriculation centre of my university in 2002. She treat me very nice and talk to me and always answer my questions. She is very talkative. I am a person with a low self confidence, but the way she treat me make me felt very appreciative. I know a lot of things from her. She also do not show her arrogance even though her family is very well off and some of her uncles are very rich and have a high position in society. I believe now Diya has become a lawyer and hopefully a wife. But sadly, I iam bad at maintaining the relationship. I lost contact with her.

The thing is, before I met her, I rarely met a person that will treat me nicely. Only a few and coming to new place in that matriculation centre and meet her, I felt very grateful. Even my schoolmate that went to the same matriculation centre hinted to me that she do not want to be friend with me because she will loosen out the opportunity to meet with other friend? I do not think it's acceptable at all.

I always mislead to the thing that I want to talk about.

About Dale Carnegie book. in 2004, if I am not mistaken, I talked to Diya about the problems that I face, and she recommend dale Carnegie book and I can say it's a very great book. It's a book about How to Stop Worrying and Start Living, and I am really glad Diya lend me the book. The book is very informative and life awakening to me. One the phrases that I remember is that one of the reason tooth decay happen because that person is worry too much. Let's make observation, find an old people with a very good teeth (make sure it's real tooth) and ask how that person lead his life. And also do the vice versa observation. Find people that has bad and terrible tooth decay. Is the statement accurate?

As I always having problem with my tooth, so I start to take the statement seriously. I begin to have more happy feeling for me. Smile a lot and laugh a lot. Used to be I am very difficult for to smile, even during my high school in form 5, a teacher asked me " Don't you know how to smile?'

I must said that the statement is accurate, because since I felt more happy and trying to reduce my worry and sadness, I am having less problem with my teeth. Try it out, will you?

The importance of having right mindset….

Got it from a website, and share it here. These are quotations from famous people about hard work and perseverance and of course the right mind set.  It's fine to celebrate success but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure." ~ Bill Gates "As long as your going to be thinking anyway, think big." ~ Donald Trump "The last thing that people want to hear is the plain simple fact that the rich think differently [about money] than the poor ... They have what I call a wealthy mindset." ~ Robert G. Allen "If you work for money, you give the power to your employer. If your money works for you, you keep and control the power." ~ Robert T.

2012

My 2012 has been a great year to me, and for that I am really thankful to Allah. There has been ups and downs and each one of it has been very meaningful to me. I started 2012 with a new place of work. The task become easier compare to the last my place of work. Less demanding and less pressure. But well, each place has it own problems. I encounter mine. But I take it lightly because it is not the problem that can caused me to feel angry. Instead the problem has shown me that I actually have issue with people. Then,turn out what I have to do is to just smile, ignore and do what I think is right. Do not bother what people think, as long as I do my work passionly and I try to be friend with them. Then, I discovered things about me. Like actually, I am not that very patient person. I will get what I want. It just, do not test my patience. It could be that I answer you back, or I will ignore that person totally. Actually, I hate the rush of impatience when it comes. It not good. And I ...

Jump Into Conclusion

Are you kind a person who easily jump into conclusion? Ok, let say, you meet a person who her parking skill is bad, so, without knowing her, without even say hello, you just says this to her, ‘are you paying for your license ( means that you are getting your license not in right way by paying your instructor so that your license is approved ?) I stumbled this kind a person yesterday. Luckily I am not that  kind a person who can answer back immediately, or there might be war. Just because you have a good car (by the way, it just vios, many people have it, and it still belongs to the bank, and within 7 years, many things could happen) and mine is MYVI, which I am very proud of it, it doesn’t serve you right to say that, to jump into conclusion to sarcastically says that easily. You do not even know me. I found it very rude. I have been in this situation, unable to park when the place is too crowded, but instead of getting sarcasm remarks, that person, offer me to help. That is cou...
