Peribadi Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar Al-Bukhary

Petikan kata-kata
Y. Bhg Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar Al-Bukhary

L/belakang Syed Mokhtar

- Umur - 53 tahun
- Pendidikan - SPM
- Mula berniaga - 19 tahun (jual beli lembu dan kerbau)
- Kekayaan -RM1,425 juta
- Ke 7 terkaya di Malaysia
- Ke 32 terkaya di Asia Tenggara (Forbes)
- Antara syarikat miliknya - MMC, Pelabuhan Tg. Pelepas, BERNAS, Gardenia, DRB-HICOM dan Bank Muammalat
- Kereta - Proton Perdana
- Sumbangan sosial -Yayasan Al-Bukhary,institusi pengajian untuk 3,000 pelajar, Muzium Kesenian Islam, Kompleks Al-Bukhary, menaja kelas tuisyen untuk pelajar Melayu, pengindahan Masjid Negara, sumbangan RM1 juta untuk Tabung Tsunami dan menaja setiap tahun penghantaran rakyat Malaysia yang tak mampu untuk tunaikan haji.

- Bagaimana sumbangan sosialnya bermula - Bilamana ibunya menyuruh memberikan sebahagian elaun ( RM750.00) pertamanya sebagai pengarah syarikat beras kepada jiran yang susah. Sebahagian lagi (RM750.00) ibunya simpan. Selain itu, ibunya juga menyuruh beliau menghantar lampu kerosen ke surau-surau untuk menerangi kegiatan sepanjang malam bulan Ramadhan. Dari situ bermulalah pembentukan peribadi dan pemikiran Syed Mokhtar yang kita kenali hari ini.

1. Ada sebab kenapa saya bekerja seperti tiada hari esok. Agenda sosial dan kerja-kerja kemasyarkatan itulah antara sebabnya. Saya mahu meninggalkan warisan untuk anak bangsa yang kekal berpanjangan

2. (berkenaan know who) Bangsa lain tak mengapa tapi orang Melayu kena berdamping dengan orang politik sedikit-sedikit. Tapi masalahnya kita tidak mahu melalui kesusahan; banyak yang mahu senang dengan mendampingi orang politik semata-mata.

3. Tiada apa-apa rahsia. Saya ini hamba Allah biasa, budak dangau macam saudara semua juga. Tuhan jadikan manusia ini sama sahaja. Proses kematangan saya yang membezakannya. Saya percaya sesiapa pun boleh menjadi apa sahaja asalkan mereka berusaha dengan tekun. Tetapi tentulah ia memakan masa. Tiada jalan singkat.

4. Saya mengenali kekuatan dan kelemahan saya. Apa yang tidak mampu buat saya akan minta orang lain tengok-tengokkan. Saya melalui jalan yang susah tapi itulah jalan yang kekal.

5. Kita perlu menggunakan kepakaran mereka (bangsa Cina) kerana mereka jauh lebih maju dan mahir daripada kita. Apa yang kita kurang faham kita berkongsi dengan tujuan untuk belajar dengan mereka. Apabila sudah faham baru kita boleh menjaga kepentingan kita.

6. Saya sedih melihat sistem sekolah pondok di Kedah. Saya ada cita-cita mahu memodenkan sekolah pondok. Kita kena maju.

7. Saya terlibat dalam perniagaan ini kerana saya tiada pilihan lain.

8. Untuk memajukan perniagaan, memang kena banyak sabar dan kuat berusaha.

9. Tidak ada jalan singkat. Saya belajar tentang perniagaan ini sejak kecil lagi dan saya juga biasa kena tipu.

10. Saya pun suka kemewahan. Saya pun suka tengok dunia, ke Tokyo , New York dan London . Saya pun suka pakai baju elok. Tapi kita hendak bermewah setakat mana, hendak pakai baju banyak mana, hendak tidur dalam berapa rumah satu malam, hendak makan pun sampai larat mana ?

11. Dalam hidup ini kita sebenarnya tidak ada status; ada masa di atas, ada masa di bawah.

12. Ketika Allah memberika kemewahan, kita kena turun ke bawah, tengok mana-mana yang boleh dibantu. Allah beri rezeki melalui kita untuk kita tolong orang lain. Rezeki itu bila-bila masa dia boleh ambil balik. Jika ada orang korporat Melayu yang tidak mahu turun ke bawah mungkin kerana bayangan duit itu lebih kuat daripada yang lain.

13. Korporat Cina turun ke bawah membantu. Orang Cina ada pelbagai persatuan. Kita tidak ada; kalau ada pun berpecah. Orang Melayu kita tidak mahu bekerjasama kerana perasaan dengki menguasai diri. Sudahlah tak mahu berusaha, apabila orang lain berusaha mereka marah

14. Rezeki yang ada itu sebenarnya untuk orang lain. Memang dari segi hukum pun begitu. Kita kena keluar zakat dan fitrah. Tetapi zakat fitrah banyak mana sangat. Islam agama yang adil; ia minta sedikit saja. Oleh itu, kalau ada duit yang lebih ia seharusnya dibelanjakan dengan baik.

15. Saya tak kisah kalau saya tak buat semua ini. Saya boleh tak buat apa-apa dan balik ke Alor Star. Tetapi saya rasa hidup ini sia-sia. Orang Kedah kata kalau mati nanti mata tidak tutup rapat kerana tanggungjawab depan mata kita tidak buat. Orang lain ambil kekayaan kita, ambil hak kita dan pergunakan kita, kita masih tidak buat apa-apa !

16. Saya ada emotional attachment kepada agama, bangsa dan ummah. Saya bukan individualistik. Diri saya tidak penting. Pangkat dan gelaran ini kepada saya tidak mustahak .

17. Saya sedih media tonjolkan saya begini. Saya malu kerana orang Cina kaya beratus-ratus kali ganda daripada saya. Tapi saya tahu orang Melayu kalau hendak berjaya kena kerja kuat tidak kira siang malam. Kita ada kekuatan yang tuhan beri melebihi daripada bangsa lain. Tetapi untuk maju kita perlu berusaha.

18. Saya asal daripada tidak ada apa-apa. Apa yang saya tidak tahu saya belajar, minta tolong daripada orang. Saya tidak malu. Saya bukannya mencuri. Saya usaha sendiri. Sikap pemalas dan pemalu ini yang orang Melayu kena atasi. Kita kena berani kerana benar. Apabila kita dapat keuntungan dan rezeki lebih, bolehlah kita menolong orang.

19. Kaya itu bukanlah kepada diri sendiri. Kaya itu adalah kepada kumpulan perniagaan ini, kepada bangsa dan kepada orang ramai. Saya hanya memegangnya untuk sementara sahaja.

20. Saya tiada keinginan untuk menyimpan kekayaan ini untuk anak dan isteri. Duit ini tidak akan kekal. Saya percaya hanya perkara yang baik yang kita lakukakan akan kekal. Bukan duit yang akan melindungi saya nanti tapi apa yang saya lakukan sekarang.

21. Saya perlu terus mencari peluang dan perniagaan lain supaya kita terus dapat bantu orang lain mengembangkan diri masing-masing. Saya bukan buat semua ini untuk diri saya semata-mata.

22. Ada juga yang saya usaha tapi tak dapat dan orang tak tahu. Apa yang saya dapat itu yang jadi masalah kononnya Syed Mokhtar sapu semua. Bangsa lain memegang pelbagai kepentingan dalam ekonomi, siapa pun tak kata apa. Ini masalah orang Melayu. Di kampung orang Melayu berpecah kerana politik, di bandar berpecah kerana ini (wang).

23. Saya percaya kalau rezeki itu Allah beri kepada saya ia bukan untuk saya tetapi untuk orang ramai juga. Orang tidak tahu banyak syarikat yang saya ada ini gagal dan tidak maju kepada saya tetapi orang tidak tahu.

24. Banyak orang percaya bahawa dia mesti ada RM10 juta atau RM20 juta dalam tangan baru hidup boleh selamat. Ini yang menyebabkan mereka hanyut daripada menolong orang lain. Mereka lebih takutkan diri sendiri. Mereka lupa bahawa kekayaan tidak boleh membantu selama-lamanya.

25. Orang kata saya takda duit tapi banyak hutang. Orang berniaga mana yang tak berhutang. Tapi mesti tahu bagaimana hendak meminjam dan membayarnya semula. Ada cara boleh kita buat. Tapi sebelum berhutang RM100 juta mesti sudah fikir bagaimana hendak membayarnya balik. Mesti ada tanggungjawab. Banyak orang mahu senang tapi tidak ramai yang mahu bertanggungjawab.

26. (perasaan setiap kali mendapat rezeki) . Saya ini kata orang Kedah, lebai kodok bukan lebai pondok. Tapi saya tahu hal-hal asas. Kalau mahu saya minta terus dari tuhan. Tuhan beri manusia akal dan fikiran. Kalau hendak pakai baju dan seluar biarlah padan dengan badan.

27. Kesenangan yang saya perolehi ini datang dengan tanggungjawab (bila pinjam bayar balik dan buat amal jariah). Kalau hendak dibandingkan dengan bangsa lain, perniagaan saya ini tidak ada apa. Tetapi walaupun sedikit tetapi yang sedikit itu ada berkatnya.

28. Saya suka kalau nikmat sedikit yang saya dapat itu orang lain boleh berkongsi sama.

29. Saya kadang-kadang kecewa dan sedih melihat anak orang alim yang sesetengahnya lupa diri setelah mendapat kekayaan. Saya pun sama seperti orang lain suka hendak ke luar negara tetapi kita tidak boleh lupa kubur kita dan asal usul kita. Di kampung kita mungkin ada jiran-jiran yang perlukan bantuan .

30. ......kalau tidak mungkin saya sudah ke Haatyai dan jadi nakal. Saya manusia yang banyak buat kesilapan. Tetapi saya insaf, beristighfar dan jalan lagi. Sejak awal saya ada kesedaran mahu mengekalkan hak kita sebagai orang Melayu.

31. Saya kata kepada diri sendiri kalau kerana itu saya terpaksa bersusah sedikit pun tidak mengapa.

32. Kekayaan ini tuhan beri kepada saya untuk saya menolong orang lain pula. Saya percaya kepada keberkatan rezeki. Hari ini kita tolong orang, esok lusa orang akan tolong kita pula dengan cara yang lain.

33. Kalaupun tidak sanggup tunggu 34 tahun seperti saya berilah sedikit masa untuk faham selok belok perniagaan, Insya Allah boleh maju.

34. Kita jangan cepat putus asa. Putus asa boleh tapi kena cepat-cepat kuatkan semula semangat untuk bangkit balik. Jangan jadikan agama hanya satu tempat untuk kita bergantung apabila kita susah. Tanggungjawab ibadah adalah tugas seharian.

35. Lifestyle ? Saya tidak ada lifestyle yang kena masuk kelab sana dan sini. Tapi tak semestinya saya tidak boleh turun ke kelab. Orang Melayu kalau hendak ke depan mesti ada cara hidup yang fleksibel, boleh naik dan turun.

36. Lifestyle ini sebenarnya satu penyakit. Saya biasa pakai Mercedes tapi sekarang saya pakai Proton Perdana untuk sokong kereta nasional. Kereta itu pun cukup untuk bawa saya ke mana-mana.

37. Tiada sebab kenapa orang Melayu tidak boleh maju. Ini saya berani perang dengan sesiapa pun. Orang Melayu boleh maju . Kalau saudara jadi wartawan saudara kena tanam semangat suatu hari nanti mahu ambil alih akhbar ini. Tidak ada sebab kenapa ia tidak boleh berlaku.

38. Kejayaan dan kelemahan orang Melayu bukan disebabkan oleh bangsa kita dan agama kita. Ia berkait dengan sikap dan cara kita berfikir. Gigih, tekun dan tidak mudah putus asa merupakan kunci kejayaan kita. Tapi perkara ini kurang wujud dalam cara orang Melayu berfikir.

39. Tuhan memberi peluang kepada siapa saja yang bekerja kuat. Apa yang ada pada saya ini hanya usaha. Kalau anak dangau macam saya boleh, tidak ada sebab orang lain terutama mereka yang dari pekan tidak boleh.

40. Kita tidak usahlah selalu mengulang-ulang perkara yang boleh memberikan kesan psikologi negatif kepada orang Melayu (kereta dan rumah besar). Kita kena kurangkan bercakap tentang kereta besar dan rumah besar . Sesiapa pun mahu pakai kereta mewah tapi bukan itu matlamatnya.

41. Orang Melayu sebenarnya kena membantu diri sendiri, kena bekerja keras dan fokus.

42. Sikap merendah diri perlu sentiasa ada dalam diri seseorang walau setinggi mana pun kejayaan dicapai.

43. Apa yang saya buat ini (kerja-kerja sosial) semuanya bermula daripada didikan orang tua saya sendiri.

44. Saya sendiri berhutang sambil berniaga dan buat sumbangan amal jariah. Saya tak mahu tunggu hutang habis baru hendak buat semua ini. Saya takut kalau hutang habis saya pun mati dan apa pun tak sempat saya buat.

45. Saya biasa saja. Hidup saya tidak berubah, dari dulu beginilah. Saya terima apa saja nikmat yang diberikan oleh Allah. Tidak ada segelas air, ada setengah gelas pun saya bersyukur.

46. Kalau kerana sedikit bantuan itu mereka lulus peperiksaan dan hidup mereka menjadi lebih baik, saya sudah gembira. Saya tidak boleh buat banyak. Alhamdulillah, lebih baik buat sedikit daripada tidak buat langsung.

47. Saya tiada minat untuk beli kapal layar atau kapal terbang. Saya fikir kalau saya beli sesuatu biarlah orang ramai boleh pakai. Saya suka kalau saya beli sesuatu yang mahal, biarlah orang ramai boleh pakai.

48. Saya gembira dapat membantu. Saya mahu orang lain merasai (kesenangan) apa yang saya pernah rasa. Saya tahu bagaimana perasaanya. Saya kata kepada diri saya, apa yang saya dapat saya mesti beri orang lain merasainya sama. Jangan beri kurang, lebih tak mengapa. Itu yang membuat hati saya seronok.

49. Saya rasa saya ingin menyumbang lebih daripada ini. Saya kata kepada kawan-kawan ini baru warm-up saja; kita belum berjalan lagi.

50. Saya rasa kita terlalu banyak ketinggalan.

Kepada anak-anak ibu;

" Harta benda dan anak pinak itu ialah perhiasan di dunia; dan amal-amal soleh yang kekal faedahnya itu lebih baik pada sisi Tuhanmu sebagai pahala balasan, dan lebih baik sebagai asas yang memberi harapan"

(Surah Al-Kahfi: Ayat 46)

Freddie Anguilar - Anak (Malay version)

2011-11-14T08:33:00.001-08:00

Semasa engkau dilahirkan

Kabul sudah satu impian

Impian nyata kurnia Illahi

Engkau anak istimewa

Kebahagiaan ibu ayah

Bila menangis dan juga tertawa

Hai anak kau tak mengerti

Betapa mulia pengorbanan mereka

Memberikan kasih-sayang

Agar dapat menikmati dunia

Masa silih berganti

Kau membesar tak disedari

Cepat sungguh kau pandai bicara

Apa yang telah terjadi

Pada mereka kau derhaka

Mengapa begitu apakah salahnya

Hai anak kau tak mengerti

Betapa mulia pengorbanan mereka

Memberikan kasih-sayang

Agar dapat menikmati dunia

Kini kau telah tersesat

Hilang diri dan pedoman

Tak seorang pun yang mengambil tahu

Dan kini engkau menangis

Ibu ayah menghampiri

Walau kau telah terpesong jauh

Hai anak kau tak mengerti

Betapa mulia pengorbanan mereka

Memberikan kasih-sayang

Agar dapat menikmati dunia

Hai anak kau tak mengerti

Betapa mulia pengorbanan mereka

Memberikan kasih-sayang

Agar dapat menikmati dunia

Tak Seindah Wajah

Artist: S. M. Salim

Kusangka aur di pinggir tebing

Kiranya tebu di pinggir bibir

Kusangka jujur pancaran batin

Rupanya palsu penghias zahir

Kukira hati jiwa nurani

Suci seindah wajah terbayang

Kukira puji seikhlas budi

Kulupa lidah tidak bertulang

Di manis gula semut binasa

Kail berduri bersalut umpan

Di manis kata insan terlena

Kerana budi hamba terkorban

Inikah dia lakunan hidup

Di pentas dunia insan berpura

Tipu dan daya pencapai maksud

Budi dan harta merangkum noda

Aku MilikMu - Herman Tino

2011-11-10T06:50:00.001-08:00

Langkah kaki ku..
Makin longlai..
Kehausan di padang gersang..

Betapa nanti..
Aku rebah..
Burung gagak memagut tubuh..

Biar tanpa oleh ku..
Lembah lembah berair..
Bibir akan memecah..
Tangan juga berdarah..

Oh..... Ini baru cuaca dunia
Oh..... Akan lebih nanti di sana

Mati adalah pasti
Hidup insyaallah

Dian Sastro:
Disaat waktu berhenti... kosong
Dimensi membutakan mata, memekakkan telinga
Lalu diri menjadi hampa
Saat paradigma dunia tidak lagi digunakan untuk menerka*
Sadarku akan hadirmu, mematahkan sendi2 yang biasanya tegak berdiri

Yassin:
Ult li albi bissaraha (I'm opening up my heart with honesty)
Hayya nab'idil karaha (Let's avoid the hated and hatred)
Syakkireena a' kulli ni'ma (Let's remain thankful with what we have)
Ba' ideena anil fattana (Let's avoid all lies and sins)

Malique:
Merenungi luar jendela,
Mengagumi kebesaran yang Maha Esa
Ku menilai kehidupan dari sudut berbeza
Tak memadai hanya kecapi rasa selesa
Maukan harta yang mampu beli 1 semesta
Berpesta ke pagi botol bergelimpangan
Kekasih muda bukan takat berpegang tangan
Harta dan jamuan nafsu tidak berkekalan
Bila menjelang tua bukan itu jadi bekalan
Dan jangan puisi ini disalah tafsir pula
Bukan berkhutbah cuma betuli diri jua
Ingin hidup sempurna, aset nilai berjuta,
Saling tukar wanita, senyum dan mati tua.
Bakat dikurnia jangan disalah guna
Jangan kufur nikmat yang diberi percuma
Guna kelebihan untuk hikmah bersama
Jagalah nama hidup penuh pementasan dan drama
Ada berisi ada yang kurus,
Ada melencong ada yang lurus bukan semuanya tulus
Ada sempurna ada kurang upaya
Ada yang jadi buta hanya bila sudah kaya
Sebesar rumah bermula dengan sekecil bata,
Boleh hilang dalam sekelip mata
Ucaplah Alhamdulillah bukannya sukar,
Kerna semua yang kaya atau besar
Tetap Allahuakbar!

Joe Flizzow:
Jadikanlah ku tentera Fisabilillah
Yang tertera di kalimah harap memanduilah
Entah apabila persimpangan tiba,
Hidup penuh dengan rintangan harus kuhadapinya
Harapku tidak lupa diri bila gembira,
Dan cuma mula mencari kau disaat hiba
Ku cuma manusia penuh dengan kesilapan
Tapi bisa membezakan cahaya dan kegelapan
Tabah bila dihalangan duri onak dan cobaan
Teguh bila dicobakan pengaruh kuasa dan perempuan
Oh, Sentiasa legar diminda,
Dikejar dan dipinta dari zaman bermula hingga ke akhirnya
Ku mengerti siapa ku tanpamu disisi
Dan apa guna posesi juga posisi
Sementara ini cuma hanya puisi,
Nukilan tulisan dan bisikan isi hati
Mencari keterangan, menjiwai peranan
Menepati pesanan janji juga saranan
Alhamdulillah atas kurniaan rezeki,
Moga tidak leka dalam perjalanan ini

Yassin:
Ult li albi bissaraha (I'm opening up my heart with honesty)

Ahli Fiqir:
Aku yang memandang di dalam lubuk hati,
Mencari-cari zat rahsia yang katanya tersembunyi
Aku yang melihat, alam meliputi
Wujud menyertai lalu ku pindahkan alam ke dalam mata hati
Aku hakiki, aku mengerti segala yang terjadi, di langit dan di bumi
Gunanya tiada fantasi, pelik dan benar, qada' dan qadar kau berilah ku kekuatan
Agar dapat ku hindarkan segala kesesatan
Usah kau biarkan nafsuku terliur
Dari pandangan majazi ini,
Aku yang bodoh lagi hina amat benar merindui
Moga cahaya lailatul tak membutakan mataku,
Semoga segala puji tak ku meninggi diri
Moga segala janji dapat juga ku penuhi,
Moga dapatku menghadang tikaman dari belakang
Lidah setajam pisau, ku tidak akan risau dengan dugaan,
Cabaran sepanjang perjalanan
Ku pasrah ku akur 7, 8, 6 Alhamdulillah Syukur...

Yassin:
Ult li albi bissaraha (I'm opening up my heart with honesty)

Dian Sastro:
Sujudku pun takkan memuaskan inginku
'Tuk hanturkan* sembah sedalam kalbu
Adapun kusembahkan syukur padamu ya Allah
Untuk nama, harta dan keluarga yang mencinta
Dan perjalanan yang sejauh ini tertempa
Alhamdulillah pilihan dan kesempatan
Yang membuat hamba mengerti lebih baik makna diri
Semua lebih berarti akan mudah dihayati
Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah...

Terlalu Istimewa - Adibah Noor

Terlalu Istimewa

Ku tak tergambar wajahmu
Sinar mata itu
Lirik senyumanmu
Pesona yang membelai
Wajahmu bercahaya
Memberi bahagia
Tiap yang memandang
Hati jadi salju

Kau terlalu istimewa
Kasih dan sayangmu terpancar
Seikhlas tiada batasan
Terus membara
Terkilan rasa jiwa
Ingin ku lihat mu dewasa
Apa daya
Tuhan lebih menyayangimu

Ku pasti kau berbahagia
Duduk di sampingnya
Mendengar cerita
Sekadar rahsia

Kau terlalu istimewa
Kasih dan sayangmu terpancar
Seikhlas tiada batasan
Terus membara
Terkilan rasa jiwa
Ingin ku lihat mu dewasa
Apa daya
Tuhan lebih menyayangimu

Tak tertanggung rindu…
Mendengar suaramu…
Tawa mengusik jiwa…
Oh…

Kau terlalu istimewa
Kasih dan sayangmu terpancar
Seikhlas tiada batasan
Terus membara
Terkilan rasa jiwa
Ingin ku lihat mu dewasa
Apa daya
Tuhan lebih menyayangimu

Dugaanku - Ning Baizura

2011-07-18T00:03:00.000-07:00

Composer: Is / Lukhman S

Hati pedih menangis,
jiwaku yang suram,
malam yang panjang,
ingin aku bersendirian..

Merenung kehidupan,
memikir kesudahan,
pada siapakah hendak ku curah,
keresahanku..

Aku berpaut pada sejengkal tali cuma,
itulah yang ada sementara aku hidup di dunia ini,
inikah dugaanku,
inikah kesempatan,
haruskah ku terus atau membiarkan ianya berlalu..

Dekat didepan mata,
berat meluah kata,
terpendam segala apa dirasa,
sekian lama ini..

Apakah kita nanti,
tiada dapat serasi,
ataukah hanya aku bermimpi,
untuk memiliki..

Aku berpaut pada sejengkal tali cuma,
itulah yang ada sementara aku hidup di dunia ini,
inikah dugaanku,
inikah kesempatan,
haruskah ku terus atau membiarkan ianya berlalu..

Kesempatan yang datang tiada ketentuan,
puasku memandang di kejauhan tak kesampaian..
sering terbayang-bayang,
tinggi lagi harapan,
adakah kusempat atau pun tidak,
untuk bersamamu...

A Shoulder to Cry On - Tommy Page

2011-07-07T21:24:00.000-07:00

Life is full of lots of up and downs,
And the distance feels further when you're headed for the ground,
And there’s nothing more painful than to let you're feelings take you down,
It's so hard to know the way you feel inside,
When there's many thoughts and feelings that you hide,
But you might feel better if you let me walk with you by your side,

And when you need a shoulder to cry on,
When you need a friend to rely on,
When the whole world is gone,
You won't be alone, cause I'll be there,
I'll be your shoulder to cry on,
I'll be there,
I'll be a friend to rely on,
When the whole world is gone,
You won't be alone, cause I'll be there.

All of the times when everything is wrong
And you're feeling like there's no use going on
You can't give it up
I'll help you work it out and carry on

Side by side, With you till the end
I'll always be the one to firmly hold your hand
no matter what is said or done
our love will always continue on

Everyone needs a shoulder to cry on
Everyone needs a friend to rely on
When the whole world is gone
You won't be alone cause I'll be there (ooh)
I'll be your shoulder to cry on
I'll be there (I’ll be there)
I'll be your friends to rely on
when the whole world was gone
you won't be alone
cause I'll be there (ooh)
You’ll have my shoulder to cry on
I'll be there (I’ll be there)
I’ll be the one to rely one
And when the whole world is gone
You won’t be alone
Cause I’ll be there!

And when the whole world is gone
You'll always have my shoulder to cry on....

The Blindside Story

2011-07-04T20:23:00.001-07:00

Saya telah beberapa kali menonton filem ‘The Blindside Story’ yang mana pelakon utamanya ialah Sandra Bullock yang mememegang watak seorang usahanita di Ole Miss, Leigh Anne Tuohy. Filem ini adalah merupakan genre drama yang mana mengisahkan seorang usahawan wanita kulit putih yang mengambil seorang anak angkat yang berkulit hitam bernama Micheal Oher. Micheal Oher adalah seorang remaja yatim yang hidup terbiar dan tidak mempunyai tempat tinggal tetap. Pada suatu malam, dalam perjalanan pulang ke rumah, Leigh Anne Tuohy kebetulan terserempak dengan Micheal Oher atau dipanggil ‘Big Mike’ yang pada masa yang sama sedang dalam perjalanan menuju ke arah gymnasium dalam cuaca yang sejuk pada malam hari. Kesihan melihat keadaannya, Leigh Anne Tuohy mempelawa Micheal Oher tumpang tidur di rumahnya sebagai tetamu. Kesemua ahli keluarga Leigh Anne Tuohy telah menerima kehadiran Micheal Oher dengan hati yang sangat terbuka. Daripada detik itu, Micheal Oher terus tinggal menetap di rumah Leigh Anne Tuohy setelah diterima sebagai ahli keluarga yang rasmi.

Leigh Anne Tuohy telah memberikan pendidikan yang sempurna kepada Micheal Oher sehingga mendapat biasiswa untuk melanjutkan pelajaran di Ole Miss dan telah menjadi pemain American football yang terkenal sehingga sekarang. Di dalam sukan tersebut, Micheal Oher telah berperanan sebagai pemain pertahanan terbaik dan dalam masa yang sama mendapat keputusan yang sangat cemerlang di pusat pengajian tinggi sehingga dianugerahkan sijil dekan.

Filem ini membuatkan saya terfikir bahawa rupa-rupanya terdapat segolongan orang-orang Kristian yang sangat baik hati budinya seperti Leigh Anne Tuohy sebagaimana sifat-sifat yang sangat dituntut dalam agama Islam. Bukanlah bermakna saya menyarankan kita semua perlu mempelawa sesiapa sahaja untuk datang ke rumah kita untuk tumpang tidur. Pada saya apa yang berlaku pada keluarga Leigh Anne Tuohy adalah takdir Allah s.w.t. ke atas hamba-hambaNya tidak kita bangsa, agama atau warna kulit. Namun pada hemat saya, sikap dan hati yang terbuka Leigh Anne Tuohy harus diteladani oleh semua masyarakat tidak kira agama atau bangsa. Saya menyarankan anda semua tontonlah filem ini dan ambillah teladan daripada kisah benar yang telah diadaptasikan dalam filem ini.

Perbezaan antara Impian dan Berangan ialah:

Impian - mencengkam perasaan, hati berdebar, kemahuan yang kuat untuk mencapainya..!!

Berangan - hanya bermain diminda, hati tiada perasaan, kemahuan yang hambar....

Don’t Quit

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow--
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up,
When he might have captured the victor's cup,
And he learned too late when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out--
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

Masih belum sempurna..

Gerakkan Hati... Hati gerakkan...
Pandanglah aku.. aku lah dia..

kulitku tebal.. ku kebal.. ingatku kebal..
hanya berbual makan angin kembung perut mual...
resah dan tidak senang.. hidup tak pernah lenang..
ku schizo paranoia takut pecah tembelang

pecah tembelang... peta dah hilang...
bangau dah pulang... suara sumbang..

lidahku kaku tak selicin kuku
teman baikku buku
bini ku pena.. tak pernah lena
aku suka mengintai pantang ditenung
berakhir pertelingkahan dalaman
pasti belum

ikut gerak hati.. pena melayang
dilihat dua layang pandang
tak lah sekarang
takat meradang
tanya.. abang gedang, apa barang?
badan macam badang
main macam belakang parang

hunuskan keris musuh ada pistol
tradisi kekalkan adaptasi harus betul
tujuh baris keramat tujuh garis penamat
baik berpada biar jahat asal selamat

ramai saudaraku yang baik telah dipijak

awan mendung yang berarak
bawa tangis bawa resah

rebah rindu yang terkumpul

semua gerak dan kalimat
semua janji yang terikat
lebur disisimu

yo ijazah terbaik datangnya dari jalanan
dari pengalaman bercakap dan bersalaman
konflik motivasi cuba medatasi
positif dan benci jadi inspirasi pagi

peduli itu interpretasi basi pekakkan sebelah
halang biar keduanya muka cantik
soalan bodoh yang ditanya jadi melodinya
lebih hina dari zina

Hah.. lu bikin dosa ku bikin prosa
testosterone testarosa
citacita sosa kl kl kosa nostra
jalan berliku ku harung roller coaster
gah sentosa tiada penyesalan
luas pandangan jauh dah berjalan (tiada..)
tak sempurna masih ada kejanggalan (tiada penyesalan)
gagal merancang, merancang kegagalan

awan mendung yang berarak
bawa tangis bawa resah
rebah rindu yang terkumpul
semua gerak dan kalimat
semua janji yang terikat
lebur disisimu

kucing bawa tidur rimau bawa igau
masuk tempat orang bawa otak bukan pisau

naik bukit angkuh cakap ayah jangan risau
turun bukit pucat dengar tiga miaww
kucing bawa tidur rimau bawa ngigau
masuk tempat orang bawa otak bukan pisau

tolak pintu gua tiga kerat tenaga
kosong tak dijaga sampai datang tiga naga
ingat nak berlaga tapi tak kan boleh menang
menang dengan otak tak mesti dengan pedang

sebelum jadi bangkai ikan koi renang renang
pura pura salah jawapan untuk naik berang
panggil lima kawan atau biar pergi laju
risaukan pekara temeh kita tak akan maju
muka sama hijau hati siapa tahu
merah dah menyala pasti mati siapa mahu
gagap tiga kali bercakap benar saja
bulan terang ramai yang keluar buat kerja

panjat pokok buluh cari tukun air terjun
naik sampai nampak dah terpegun turun
tiga ular ikut lompat atau paut
kalau lari mati jika jerut maut

awan mendung yang berarak
bawa tangis bawa resah
rebah rindu yang terkumpul
semua gerak dan kalimat
semua janji yang terikat
lebur disisimu

puisi hati mu... hati mu puisi
palu hati ku palu hatiku

kulit tak besalin walau saling ganti baju
pandang sini pandang sini
ku berbahasa baku kata kata nahu
himpun jadi satu
mantera beradu dengan irama dan lagu

akhirnya sempurna....

When you were born into this world

Your mom and dad saw a dream fulfilled

Dream come true

The answer to their prayers

You were to them a special child

Gave 'em joy every time you smiled

Each time you cried

They're at your side to care

Child, you don't know

You'll never know how far they'd go

To give you all their love can give

To see you through and God it's true

They'd die for you, if they must, to see you here

How many seasons came and went

So many years have now been spent

For time ran fast

And now at last you're strong

Now what has gotten over you

You seem to hate your parents too

Do speak out your mind

Why do you find them wrong

Child you don't know

You'll never know how far they'd go

To give you all their love can give

To see you through and God it's true

They'd die for you, if they must, to see you near

And now your path has gone astray

Child you ain't sure what to do or say

You're so alone

No friends are on your side

And child you now break down in tears

Let them drive away your fears

Where must you go

Their arms stay open wide

Child you don't know

You'll never know how far they'd go

To give you all their love can give

To see you through

And God it's true

They'd die for you, if they must, to see you here

Child you don't know

You'll never know how far they'd go

To give you all their love can give

To see you through and God it's true

They'd die for you, if they must, to see you here

Dimana akan ku cari

Aku menangis seorang diri

Hatiku ingin slalu bertemu

Untukmu aku bernyanyi

Untuk ayah tercinta, aku ingin bernyanyi

Dengan air mata di pipiku

Ayah dengarkanlah, aku ingin berjumpa

Walau hanya dalam mimpi

Lihatlah hari berganti

Namun tiada seindah dahulu

Datanglah aku ingin bertemu

Untukmu aku bernyanyi

Untuk ayah tercinta, aku ingin bernyanyi

Dengan air mata di pipiku

Ayah dengarkanlah, aku ingin berjumpa

Walau hanya dalam mimpi

Datanglah aku ingin bertemu

Untukmu aku bernyanyi

Untuk ayah tercinta, aku ingin bernyanyi

Dengan air mata di pipiku

Ayah dengarkanlah, aku ingin berjumpa

Walau hanya dalam mimpi

Oh.. ayah....

Open Your Eyes - Maher Zain

2011-06-07T21:58:00.000-07:00

Look around yourself

Can’t you see this wonder

Spread infront of you

The clouds floating by

The skies so clear and blue

Planets in their orbits

The moon and the sun

Such perfect harmony

Let’s start questioning ourselves

Isn’t this proof enough for us

Or are we so blind

To push it all aside..

No..

We just have to

Open our eyes, our hearts, and minds

If we just look bright we'll see the signs

We can’t keep hiding from the truth and

Let it take us by surprise

Take us in the best way

Allah..

Guide us every single day..

Allah..

Keep us close to You

Until the end of time..

Look inside yourself

Such perfect order

Hiding in yourselves

Running in your veins

What about anger, love and pain

And all the things you’re feeling

Can you touch them with your hand?

So are they really there?

Let's start questioning ourselves

Isn’t this proof enough for us?

Or are we so blind

To push it all aside..?

No..

We just have to

Open our eyes, our hearts, and minds

If we just look bright to see the signs

We can’t keep hiding from the truth and

Let it take us by surprise

Take us in the best way

Allah..

Guide us every single day..

Allah..

Keep us close to You

Until the end of time..

When a baby’s born

So helpless and weak

And you’re watching him growing..

So why deny

What's in front of your eyes

The biggest miracle of life..

We just have to

Open our eyes, our hearts, and minds

If we just look bright we’ll see the signs

We can’t keep hiding from the truth and

Let it take us by surprise

Take us in the best way

Allah..

Guide us every single day..

Allah..

Keep us close to You

Until the end of time..

Open your eyes your heart and mind

If you just look bright to see the signs

We can’t keep hiding from the truth and

Let it take us by surprise

Take us in the best way

Allah..

Guide us every single day..

Allah..

Keep us close to You

Until the end of time..

Allah..

You created everything

We belong to You

Ya Rabb we raise our hands

Forever we thank You..

Alhamdulillah..

"Never blame other people including yourself"

'Whenever focus grow, energy flow'

What's area in life that make you happy?

Why are you happy in that area?

Why are you motivated so much in accomplishing your dream?

What you really want in your life?

Dream: must be 'focus' and 'clear'..!!

If current life (CL) = Blue print (BP) then you are happy

Guide to a Better Life - Randy Pausch

2011-06-01T19:21:00.000-07:00

POINTS ON HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR LIFE

Personality:
1. Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
2. Don't have negative thoughts of things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment
3. Don't over do; keep your limits
4. Don't take yourself so seriously; no one else does
5. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip
6. Dream more while you are awake
7. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need..
8. Forget issues of the past. Don't remind your partner of his/her mistakes of the past. That will ruin your present happiness.
9. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Don't hate others.
10. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present
11. No one is in charge of your happiness except you
12. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn.
Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.
13. Smile and laugh more
14. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

Community:
15. Call your family often
16. Each day give something good to others
17. Forgive everyone for everything
18. Spend time with people over the age of 70 & under the age of 6
19. Try to make at least three people smile each day
20. What other people think of you is none of your business
21. Your job will not take care of you when you are sick. Your family and friends will. Stay in touch.

Life:
22. Put GOD first in anything and everything that you think, say and do.
23. GOD heals everything
24. Do the right things
25. However good or bad a situation is, it will change
26. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up
27. The best is yet to come
28. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful
29. When you awake alive in the morning, thank GOD for it
30. If you know GOD you will always be happy. So, be happy.

You're Thinkin'
About My Baby
It Don't Matter If You're
Black Or White

I Am Tired Of This Devil
I Am Tired Of This Stuff
I Am Tired Of This Business

Your Brother
I Ain't Scared Of No Sheets
I Ain't Scare Of Nobody
Girl When The
Goin' Gets Mean

Protection
For Gangs, Clubs
And Nations
Causing Grief In
Human Relations
It's A Turf War
On A Global Scale
I'd Rather Hear Both Sides
Of The Tale
See, It's Not About Races
Just Places
Faces
Where Your Blood
Comes From
Is Where Your Space Is
I've Seen The Bright
Get Duller
I'm Not Going To Spend
My Life Being A Color

Don't Tell Me You Agree With Me
When I Saw You Kicking Dirt In My Eye

But, If
You're Thinkin' About My Baby
It Don't Matter If You're Black Or White

I Said If
You're Thinkin' Of
Being My Baby
It Don't Matter If You're Black Or White

I Said If
You're Thinkin' Of
Being My Brother
It Don't Matter If You're
Black Or White

Ooh, Ooh
Yea, Yea, Yea Now
Ooh, Ooh

It's Tough For You
To Get By
It's Black , It's White, Whoo

Standing in Eyes of the World - Ella

Pahit getir hidup...
dan pengorbanan
Terpaksa dihadapi,
demi kejayaan
Terdidik sejak mula,
tabah berusaha
Tanpa cuba melangkah,
tak ke mana
Di mana kau berada
Pencapaian tak tiba dengan mudah

Kini "Standing In The Eyes Of The World"
Hanyalah selangkah dari nyata
Keazaman membara dijiwa
Menanti saat bebas merdeka

Tiba masa kau melangkah gagah
Bersemangat ke arah matlamat sedaya upaya
Engkau terunggul
Wajar "Standing In The Eyes Of The World"

Harapan yang pernah terkulai layu
Kembali segar mekar bawah bayanganmu
Setiap manusia ingin berjaya
Namun tak semua miliki tuah
Engkau menghampirinya
Kesempatan telah pun tiba...

Kini "Standing In The Eyes Of The World"
Hanyalah selangkah dari nyata
Keazaman membara dijiwa
Menanti saat bebas merdeka

Tiba masa kau melangkah gagah
Bersemangat ke arah matlamat sedaya upaya
Engkau terunggul
Wajar "Standing In The Eyes Of The World"

Until the Last Moment - Yanni (Chloe&Nathan Pachenco)

2011-05-24T21:14:00.001-07:00

Mi Todo Eres Tu – Yanni (Until the last moment)

Only in this moment will my heart remain beside you
Only in this moment will our passions stay aligned
Lost in love's embrace is where our memories lie

Amar es todo dar...perdoname (forgive me too)
Es que no pense (it hurts in me)
And you

Juntos podemos seguir
Darle otro rumbo a esta historia
We give it from time but you and I
Survived through it all
Dime que puedes sentir
Que no termine este sueño
But this song in chance love has a chance
To prove what we knew all along

Somos dos sueños del tiempo
Baila conmigo en el viento
Desnuda tus sentimientos
Hasta el ultimo momento
Mi todo eres tu

Oh you!

Solo soy libre a tu lado
El miedo quedo en el pasado
Fulfill me now with this endless vow
To live as never before

Somos dos sueños del tiempo
Baila conmigo en el viento
Desnuda tus sentimientos
Hasta el ultimo momento
Mi todo eres tu

Hasta el ultimo momento...

One Moment In Time Lyrics
Artist :Whitney Houston

Each day I live
I want to be
A day to give
The best of me
I'm only one
But not alone
My finest day
Is yet unknown

I broke my heart
Fought every gain
To taste the sweet
I face the pain
I rise and fall
Yet through it all
This much remains

I want one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity

I've lived to be
The very best
I want it all
No time for less
I've laid the plans
Now lay the chance
Here in my hands

Give me one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity

You're a winner for a lifetime
If you seize that one moment in time
Make it shine

Give me one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time

I will be
I will be
I will be free
I will be
I will be free

Maher:
As I traveled through the earth
I can't help but notice
The symphony I hear all around
from the smallest grain of sand
to the faraway planets
to a flower put in roots in the ground
Every bird in the sky
Every rock and every raindrop
Says as it falls from the clouds
every ant, every plant
every breeze and all the seas
They all sing

سبحانك ربي سبحانك
سبحانك ما أعظم شأنك

ندعوك ونرجوا غفرانك

Mesut:

جل الله بكل كون الله
ألمح نور الله
وذكر ربي في دقات قلبي
يهتف بسم الله
خلق الله
صنع الله ما أبهاه

يا رباه يا رحمن

Always Be There lyrics - MAHER ZAIN

2010-11-12T20:28:00.001-08:00

Allahuakbar...

If you ask me about love
And what I know about it
I'll answer will be...

It's everything about Allah
The pure love to our soul
Who have created you and me,
The heaven and whole universe
The One that made us hold and free
The Guardian of His True believers

So when the time gets hard
There's no way to turn
As He promised
He will always be there
To bless us with His love and His mercy coz
As He promise
He will always be there

He's always watching us, guiding us
And He knows what's in our little heart
So when you lose your way to Allah
You should turn
As He promised He will always be there...

Could bring the sun from the darkness
Into the light
Subhanallah
Capable of everything
Should never feel afraid of anything
As long as we follow His guidance
All the way through a short time
We have in this life
Soon it'll all be over
And we'll be in His heaven
And we'll all be fined

So when the time gets hard
There's no way to turn
As He promised
He will always be there
To bless us with His love and His mercy coz
As He promised
He will always be there
He's always watching us, guiding us
And He knows what's in our little Heart
So when you lose your way to Allah
You should turn
As He promised to you He will always be there

Allahuakbar

Hero - Mariah Carey

2010-11-10T00:08:00.001-08:00

Songwriters: Kroeger, Chad

There's a Hero

If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are

There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive

So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

It's a long road
And you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold

You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive

So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

Oh ho, Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away, hey yea

Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time, you find the way, hey

Then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive

So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

That a hero lies in you
Mmm, that a hero lies in you

Lirik Insha Allah – Maher Zain

2010-11-08T17:36:00.001-08:00

Every time you feel like you cannot go on

You feel so lost and that you’re so alone
All you see is night
And darkness all around
You feel so helpless you can’t see which way to go

Don’t despair and never loose hope
Coz Allah is always by your side
Insha’Allah Insha’Allah Insha’Allah
You’ll find your way
Insha’Allah Insha’Allah Insha’Allah
You’ll find your way

Every time you commit one more mistake
You feel you can’t repent
And that it’s way too late
You’re so confuse
Wrong decisions you have made
Haunt your mind and your heart is full of shame

Don’t despair and never loose hope
Coz Allah is always by your side
Insha’Allah Insha’Allah Insha’Allah
You’ll find your way
Insha’Allah Insha’Allah Insha’Allah
You’ll find your way

Turn to Allah
He’s never far away
Put your trust in Him
Raise your hands and pray
Oohh Ya Allah
Guide my steps don’t let me go astray
You’re the only one who can show me the way

Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way

Insha’Allah Insha’Allah Insha’Allah
We’ll find our way
Insha’Allah Insha’Allah Insha’Allah
We’ll find our way
Insha’Allah Insha’Allah Insha’Allah
You’ll find your way

The Chosen One

In a time of darkness and greed
It is your light that we need
You came to teach us how to live
Muhammad Ya Rasool Allah

You were so caring and kind
Your soul was full of light
You are the best of mankind
Muhammad Khaira Khalqillah
Sallu ‘ala Rasulillah, Habib Al Mustafa
Peace be upon The Messenger
The Chosen One

From luxury you turned away
And all night you would pray
Truthful in every word you say
Muhammad Ya Rasul Allah

Your face was brighter than the sun
Your beauty equaled by none
You are Allah’s Chosen One
Muhammad Khaira Khalqillah
Sallu ‘ala Rasulillah, Habib Al Mustafa
Peace be upon The Messenger
The Chosen One

I will try to follow your way
And do my best to live my life
As you taught me
I pray to be close to you
On that day and see you smile
When you see me
Sallu ‘ala Rasulillah, Habibil Mustafa
Peace be upon The Messenger
The Chosen One

Sallu ‘ala Rasulillah, Habibi Mustafa
Peace be upon The Messenger

Listen to this beautiful song...

By: Maher Zain

I praise Allah for sending me you my love
You found me home and sail with me
And I`m here with you
Now let me let you know
You`ve opened my heart
I was always thinking that love was wrong
But everything was changed when you came along
OOOOO
And theres a couple words I want to say

In a time of darkness and greed
It is your light that we need
You came to teach us how to live
محمد يا رسول الله

You were so caring and kind
your soul was full of light
You are the best of mankind
محمد خير خلق الله

صلّوا على رسول الله
الحبيب المصطفى
Peace be upon The Messenger
The Chosen One

From luxury you turned away
And all night you would pray
Truthful in every word you say
محمد يا رسول الله

Your face was brighter than the sun
Your beauty equaled by non
You are Allah Chosen One
محمد خير خلق الله

صلّوا على رسول الله
الحبيب المصطفى
Peace be upon The Messenger
The Chosen One

I'll try to follow your way
And do my best to live my life
as you taught me
I pray to be close to you
On that day and see you smile
When you see me

Peace be upon The Messenger

Programming Yourself for Success

2010-04-20T08:10:00.000-07:00

Your mission statement is always written in the present tense, as though you have already become the person that you have described. It is always positive rather than negative. And it is always personal.

Program Yourself Correctly
Your subconscious mind can only accept your mission statement as a set of commands when you phrase it in the present, positive and personal tenses. "I am an exceptional salesperson," is a perfect example. After every sales call, you should quickly reread your mission statement and ask yourself if your recent behavior was more like the person you want to be, or less? As a top sales performer, you are always comparing your sales activities against a high standard and adjusting your activities upward. You're continually striving to be better. Every day in every way, you are deliberately working to become more like the ideal person you have envisioned.

Determine Your Mission Statement
Your goal is that, a year from today, when one of your customers has lunch with one of your prospects, and your prospect asks your customer to describe you in detail as a salesperson, your customer will recite your business mission statement voluntarily. The way you have treated your customer will have been so exemplary that your customer will describe you in the most glowing of terms.

Compare Yourself Against Yourself
Once you have developed a mission statement like this, you can read it, review it, edit it, and upgrade it regularly. You can add additional qualities to it and more clearly define the qualities you've already listed. It becomes your personal credo, your philosophy of life, your statement of beliefs and a guide to your behavior in all your interactions with others. Each day, you can evaluate your behaviors and compare them against the standard that you have set in this statement.

Shape Your Own Personality
Over time, a remarkable thing will happen. As you read and review your personal mission statement, you will find yourself, almost unconsciously, shaping your words and conforming your behaviors so that you are more and more like the ideal person you have defined. People will notice the change in you almost immediately. Over time, you will find that you are actually creating within yourself the kind of character and personality that you most admire in others. You will have become the molder and the shaper of your own personal destiny. After you have applied the ABC Method to your list, you will now be completely organized and ready to get more important things done faster.

Action Exercises
First, imagine that one of your customers was going to meet with one of your prospects. What would you want him to say about you? How could you behave with your customer to assure that he says these things?

Second, talk to yourself positively all the time. Feed your mind with positive messages that describe your goals and the person you want to be.

Teguran seorang student

2010-04-15T21:16:00.001-07:00

Semalam semasa tengah tanda kertas, saya jumpa mesej kritikan yang sangat tak profesional daripada seorang student. Kesian kerana bunyinya yang agak peribadi. Pelajar daripada section Kejuruteraan Electrik ini tidak berpuas hati kerana kurang latihan tutorial yang diberikan dalam kelas lantas terus menyalahkan lecturer (saya) atas kegagalan dan kemalasannya.

Setahu saya, di dalam nota yang saya berikan, terdapat begitu banyak soalan latihan tutorial tapi sepanjang semester ini, pelajar ini langsung tak pernah jumpa saya untuk bertanya saya tentang soalan yang telah dia buat malah beliau tak pernah langsung bertanya semasa di dalam kelas. Pada hal saya sering bertanya kepada para pelajar, "Ada apa yang tak faham ke?" atau "Ada apa2 soalan?".

Jadi apakah kesimpulan yang boleh dibuat terhadap pelajar seperti ini? Ini kesimpulan saya; pelajar ini:
1) Sudah biasa spoonfeed (sudah tentu sudah terbiasa daripada sekolah).
2) Tak independent atau tak pandai berdikari. Semuanya nak didepan mata.
3) Seorang yang suka tunggu dan lihat. Tidak ada inisiatif (memulakan dahulu sesuatu perkara) sebelum pensyarah mulakan. Ini adalah sikap seorang pengemis dan rendah harga diri.
4) Manja - oh maaf, saya belum pernah jumpa orang manja yang berjaya dalam hidup kecuali kalau dia berjaya dengan cara yang kejam!
5) Masalah komunikasi - tak pandai menegur dengan cara yang bijaksana jadi terpaksalah dia menegur dengan cara yang tak matang.
6) Terlalu banyak ciri2 negetif dalam diri..
7) IQ mungkin ada. Tapi EQ zero..

Kepada semua pelajar, kalau nak menegur orang, tolong tegur dengan cara yang betul. Cakap dengan penuh hikmah dan sopan santun; insya Allah orang lain akan terima pandangan anda. Ingatlah satu perkara. Orang lain tak akan kagum dengan kita hanya kerana kita tinggi ilmu, tapi mereka akan mengkagumi kita jika kita punyai personaliti yang matang dan pandai menghormati orang lain...

See u all at the top!

Seven Basic Principles

2009-12-20T18:52:00.000-08:00

Seven Basic Principles

Relationships can be extremely complicated, but to build and maintain quality relationships requires only a few basic principles. Let me give you seven.

Trust

The first is the principle of trust. All relationships are ultimately based on trust. To build trust, you always keep your word. You remain consistent and dependable in everything you say and do. You become the kind of person who is utterly reliable in every situation. You never do or say anything that can shake this fundamental foundation of trust upon which your relationships are built.

Respect

The second principle is respect. Taking time to deliberately express your respect for the uniqueness of an individual makes him or her feel very valuable and important. By demonstrating that kind of respect, you build and enhance the quality of your relationship.

Communication

The third principle for success in relationships is communication. In communicating well with another person, time is the critical factor. The value of a relationship can increase for both you and the other person depending on the amount of time that you invest. When you take the time to focus on the important issues of a relationship, you open the channels of communication. And when you listen attentively, calmly, quietly, and with total attention, you demonstrate the respect you have for the other person, and you deepen the level of trust between you.

Courtesy

The fourth principle is courtesy. When you say “please” and “thank you” on a regular basis to the people in your life, you make them feel better about themselves and about what they are doing. You raise their self-esteem. And alas, it is often with the people we care about most that we are the least courteous and polite. Emmet Fox once wrote, “If you must be rude, be rude to strangers. But save your company manners for your family.”

Caring

The fifth principle is caring. The greatest gift that you can give to others is the gift of unconditional love and acceptance. The kindest thing you can do is to refrain from criticizing, condemning or complaining to them or about them. Think of yourself as a people-builder rather than a people-basher. Catch them doing something right. Always look for ways to make people feel more valuable, more respected, and more loved. The three most powerful words in any relationship are the words, “I love you.” Repeat them as often as possible and in as many different ways as possible to the most important people in your life.

Praise and Appreciation

The sixth principle is a combination of praise and appreciation for everything that others do for you, both large and small. When you express your appreciation to another person for something they do for you, they feel better about themselves, and they want to do more of it. And there is a kickback effect that causes your own self-esteem to go up, exactly as if you yourself had been praised.

Helpfulness

The seventh principle for success in relationships is simply helpfulness, especially with those people with whom you live. Your constant willingness to step in and do little things to alleviate the burdens felt by your spouse and children is always appreciated and respected. This willingness to share, to contribute, to help each other is an important facet of lasting relationships.

Perhaps the most important thing you ever do in life is build and maintain long-term, happy, healthy, fulfilling relationships with other people you love and who love you. When you make everything else secondary to this central purpose, you will find yourself enjoying happiness and rewards in exponential proportion to the efforts you put in.
