Everything you gain in life will rot and fall apart. All that will be left of you and be remembered well is what was in your heart.
For some it will still be a continuos journey towards a long term goal.
For others it will be a new phase, a new start to achieve new targets this year.
Learn from the past, be stronger than the past, be more determined than the past, be smarter than the past.
Wishing everyone an extremely successful year ahead.
You HOLD YOUR DESTINY IN YOUR OWN HANDS.
Its “funny” that sometimes one is too shy to be proud of what they have or what they have accomplished.
Too humble ?
Well, sometimes, humility is not a strength.
Stylish and “classy-arrogance” may be needed to get noticed.
Believe in your YELLOW umbrella and “shout” to everyone that it is indeed the greatest colour and only those with exquisite taste can appreciate it.
2 points ….
– believe in YOURSELF & what you have
– a slight tinge of arrogance may be needed to promote YOU.
Finally, if you do not have a yellow umbrella, perhaps you should make one.
Did you see it ?
Did you seize it ?
Did you pounce on it ?
Did you even try ?
Can you create it ?
Are you chasing it ?
Or are you just sitting, waiting, procrastinating and just hoping ?
YOUR OBSESSION IN CHASING FOR SOMETHING MEANINGFUL IN YOUR PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONAL LIFE DETERMINES YOUR AGE.
SO HOW YOUNG ARE YOU ?
Stop talking ……
Stop endless discussion …
Decide !!
Start doing, take action
More speed more urgency
Modify along the way …
Commit to a deadline …..
Be accountable
Do not let others WAIT.
Customers do not like waiting ?
Do YOU ???
A reflection, a self evaluation.
Are you a shark ?
If you are , do you realize it ?
Or are you trying to climb trees ?
People can change.
Skills can be learnt.
But do also check out the “nature” of your SELF.
If you are a shark , then do not even try to climb a tree, for you will never beat a monkey.
And if you are a monkey, then do not even try swimming with the sharks in the ocean. You will be eaten alive.
And if you are indeed a shark, then behave like one too and not be a guppy.
WHO ARE YOU ?
***** **** and if you are a guppy, don’t pretend to be a shark too

FORGETTING.
A caption from the book
SELAMAT MENUNAIKAN IBADAH PUISI
by Joko Pinurbo
The easiest job to do is “forgetting”.
No need for intelligence. No need for education. Just a little thought.
That is why many people do not like calendars, clocks and writing. It inhibits “forgetting”.
Seemingly, forgetting feels good. Liberating. Temporary.
The main enemy of “forgetting” is “WHEN”.
The best friend of “forgetting” is “WHENEVER”
It is often too that WHEN and WHENEVER gets along well together.
(translated as understood by WL)
A task …
An action …
Someting you want to do …
SET A DEADLINE ……
Otherwise it will all just be a wish …a talk ….a dream …… that will never happen or just YOU giving empty promises to someone.
A commitment without a deadline means nothing.
Many people feel that they are listening well.
But their minds are already conjuring up answers even before they understand the real problem.
If you want to listen well, empty your thoughts first. Absorb and focus to what is being said. Have the sincerity to understand.
LISTEN WITHOUT ANY PREJUDICES.
Bear in mind you do not have an answer for everything.
And that’s entirely OK.
Listen to learn
Listen to understand
Listen to serve
Listen to solve a problem
Listen before you speak.
You will be more successful in selling if you listen better. Poor listening skills leads to wrong proposition and you will be wasting everyone’s time.
Not every customer is your customer. If you listen well, then you will also know when to walk away or when to keep quiet.
