Fairy tales of princess

Once upon a time there lived a king. The king had a beautiful daughter, the PRINCESS.
But there was a problem. Everything the princess touched would melt. Nobody would dare marry her. The king despaired. What could he do to help his daughter? He consulted his wizards and magicians. One wizard told the king, "If your daughter touches one thing that does not melt in her hands, she will be cured."

The king was overjoyed and came up with a plan next day, he held a competition. Any man that could bring his daughter an object that would not melt would marry her and inherit the king's wealth.
THREE YOUNG PRINCES TOOK UP THE CHALLENGE. The first brought a sword of the finest steel

But alas, when the princess touched it, it melted, and t he prince went away sadly.

The second prince brought diamonds.

But alas, once the princess touched them, they melted. He too was sent away disappointed.
The third prince approached. He told the princess, "Put your hand in my pocket and feel what is in there."


She felt something hard. She held it in her hand. And it did not melt!!! The king was overjoyed. Everybody in the kingdom was overjoyed. And the third prince married the princess and they both lived happily ever after.
What was inside the prince's pocket?



M&M's of course. They melt in your mouth, not in your hand. What were you thinking??



HUM SUP!!! go back to work

Salute Performance

I was not a big fan of asia football, tough ASTRO live most of the matches held in Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia, i rarely watch it until the final match held yesterday at Stadium Gelora Bung Karno at Jakarta between Iraq and Saudi Arabia. WoW,..to describe the performance of IRAQI players right from the kick off until the final whistle. Attacks after attacks by the Iraqi players and they never set to play defensively, spirited performance from defense to attackers.
What impressed me was the attitude and mentality of Iraqi players including the ever positive coach Jorvan Vieira who could land himself to South Korea in coming days to coach the South Korean football team. They overcome the obstacles, difficulties in their own countries where they have to train, played all the matches in neighbour countries Jordan and even face accomodation problem during the competition where they left stranded without room for few hours. Coach Jorvan only arrived in May to prepare the team for the Asia Cup 2007 with the ambition to reach the competition as far as possible. No one gives them any hope or majority of us that IRAQ will win the Asia Cup 2007 when the competition begins and even in the finals when their opposition Saudi Arabia one of the dominant force and a regular customer in the finale of Asia Cup competition. Let's hope this victory will bring cheers among the Iraqis and also bring back peace to the country.
My Salute to all the Iraqis players and to all the IRAQI citizens,...RAMOS!!!

Blonde and her VCR

today's is saturday and time to move the pace little slower and relax our mind. Some might still have to work just like my dad, whose been unlucky to stuck in the airport. i know all the damn frustration with our 5 star airlines, something that out of our control; complaint, shouting, anger will not able to change the events, at least to some extent it just brought some attention and awareness of the seriousness of the problem to the management. So time to cool down little bit with this yet another episode of blonde jokes,..here it is;


A blonde decides to do something wild she hasn't done before, so she sets out to rent her first X-rated adult video. She goes to the video shop and, after looking around for a while, selects a title that sounds very stimulating.

She drives home, lights some candles, slips into something comfortable, and puts the tape in the VCR. To her disappointment, there's nothing but static on the screen, so she calls the video shop to complain.

Blonde: "I just rented an adult movie from you and there's nothing on the tape, but static."
Shop assistant: "Sorry about, that. We've had problems with some of those tapes. Which title did you rent?"

Blonde says "It's called 'Head Cleaner."

When China's Chinese speak English

Hey..can you understand when Chinese in China speak "Chinglish"? Some can and some cannot depends on the person that you speak too,...DO we expect certain standard when we comes to cabin crew works in the sky? I bet most airlines do but I suspect not for one of many China-bound airlines, one of sure is the China Southern Airlines. Here comes the announcement by the very "standard" cabin crew:


"Good afternoon, Ladies and the German". This is your cheap purser Wang Lui speaking. On behalf of China Sudden Airlines, I would like to welcome you on board our Bowling 737 from Shenzhen to Qingtao. Members of my crew speak Chinese and other languages that you do not know. It is a great pressure serving you to-die. Should you need any resistance during the fright, peace do pest the call button. I and my gals are available to make you feel comfortable. Meanwhile, the airkwaft is going to FRY. Peace sit upright and keep you belt tightly fastened until dinner is served at five dirty p.m. Hope you would enjoy your fright with us. Funk kill.
Oh My God!!!Help me!! Hope it will enlighten and relieve some of your pressure at work..ADIOS>>>

Think outside the box

Well, the competition is stiff everywhere throughout the world that also include africa continent. We are talking about donations...charity, well...this time they really think outside the box...check it out yourself:






Self esteem is not a test

"This life is a test. It is only a test. If this had been a real life, you would have received further instructions on what to do and how to do it."Ever heard those words? When you first read them, it's almost a relief. "Whew! It's just a test."But when you look deeper, you ask: "Well what, exactly, is being tested?"Then you conclude: "Me. I am being tested.

"Well, what about me is being tested?Here's where it gets interesting. Cause when you strip away the veneer, it all boils down to:

Am I loveable?
Am I enough?
Am I worthy?
Am I deserving?

So if your loveability is being tested, then who is doing the judging? Who grades the test? If you're grading yourself, then there's no need for a test. Rather, it can be a self-assessment.That's called self-esteem.
Self-esteem is the estimate you make of yourself. And you're already assessing yourself every minute of every day. It's the definition of self-esteem. But self-esteem is not a test. No.

If life is a test, then by definition it must be graded by another. It could be your friends, your lover, your family, your church, your job, your co-workers, your paycheck, your car, your house... any number of things or people.Bottom line: it's an Outside Authority who's grading you. Some would say God is doing the testing.

My own conclusion is that God is doing the giving, not the testing. Either way, I see God as Supreme Authority, not Outside Authority. Huge difference.The sun shines for all. The sun is always shining. Everyone can bask in the sun. Also, return to the foundation of self-esteem. Which is:

I assess myself. I am the only one who determines my level of esteem. I decide.
I assess.I assess my honesty.
My integrity.
My level of conscious responsibility.
My level of trust.

That's the foundation of self-esteem..Do I have the courage to earn my self-esteem? Or will I hide in a lie? I get to decide. That's the greatest gift of all.

blonde and her painting

This blonde decides one day that she is sick and tired of all the blonde jokes and how all blondes are perceived as stupid, so she decides to show her husband that blondes really are smart.

While her husband is off at work, she decides that she is going to paint a couple of rooms in the house.

The next day, right after her husband leaves for work, she gets down to the task at hand. Her husband arrives home at 5:30 and detects the distinctive smell of paint. He walks into the living room and finds his wife lying on the floor in a pool of sweat.

He notices that she is wearing a ski jacket and a fur coat at the same time. He goes over and asks her if she is OK.

She replies, "Yes."

He asks what she is doing.


She replies that she wanted to prove to him that not all blonde women are dumb and she wanted to do it by painting the house.

He then asks her why she has on a ski jacket and a fur coat.

She replies that she was reading the directions on the paint can and they said, "For best results, put on two coats."

critical steps in sales success

It's been said often, "Some folks can't seem to see the forest for the trees." Perhaps that's true in any arena, but it seems that it's rampant in sales, especially when sales are down. Time after time, when sales start to fall we find sales people becoming so caught up in the "slump" that they fail to focus on the four critical steps to consistent sales success.


Sales people tend to be motivated by immediate gratification. Those who have been in sales successfully for years understand that seeds planted today come to fruition later. Although there are moments of immediate gratification, frequently the fruition will take time. Motivational speeches are, perhaps, that little nudge to focus them not on the slump, but on the outcome.


Let's define the four critical steps to sales success, in order to re-establish successful habits. Mind you now, once you read this you'll know just how simple sales success can be, if only you'll focus on these four items and ignore all other distractions.


Question One: If your income comes from sales, are you making as much as you want or need?


If you answered, yes - Stop reading! You obviously are practicing the fundamental principles that create success and reading further is a distraction. Go back to doing what you do best.


If, on the other hand, you answered No - then you don't have enough sales. Sales create income and not enough income equals not enough sales. Solution - go get more sales.


Now, I know from making hundreds of presentations to countless sales professionals, some of you are a bit perplexed at my simplistic approach. How, you say, do we just go get more sales? We'll get to that, but for now stick with me. The first step is increasing your sales volume - Simple. There is nothing hard about this concept. It is critical to grasp, however, because the solution is always to the left. That statement will make sense a bit later.


Question Two: If you don't have enough sales to support your income needs, then aren't you lacking in enough people to see - enough presentations or appointments?


This one seems obvious. If you are not generating enough sales volume either you lack people to see (enough appointments) or your closing skills need improvement. More times than not, the issue isn't just closing skills, its people to present to and close.


Let's look at this two ways: (1) if you are having trouble setting appointments from your leads (which, by the way is closing), then you will have more trouble closing the sale when you do make a presentation; and (2) inadequate presentations will always result in inadequate sales.


So let's look at our matrix thus far. Remember the solution is always to the left!

PRESENTATIONS = SALES = YOUR INCOME


Question Three: If I don't have enough presentations, then how many leads do you have in your pipeline?


Well, I don't know. Probably enough! Really? Ask yourself this question; do you suspect that highly successful business people guess at their income or assets? Better still, if you were having surgery tomorrow would you want the person administering the anesthesia to guess at the amount? Of course not! Then, why would you guess about your leads?


Let's go back...remember the solution is always to the left. Look at the matrix again.


LEADS = PRESENTATIONS = SALES = YOUR INCOME


So are those the four things?


No - those are three things that help to generate your income. Your income is the outcome and we've just identified three of the four critical steps to success. So what is the fourth?


Question Four: Since you've identified that lead deficiency is a problem, what's the solution?
Good question! Any building built on a weak foundation is subject to crumble. Likewise, any sales professional who misses the foundation of sales success will struggle and, likely fail. This foundation is prospecting.


True sales professionals do four things: (1) prospect for leads; (2) develop the leads they identify; (2) make sales presentations; and (4) close sales. Each of those represents the four critical steps to sales success.Remember the solution is always to the left!


PROSPECTING = LEADS = PRESENTATIONS = SALES = YOUR INCOME!


Sales success requires constant attention to the four critical steps to success.

appreciate our life

Moral of the story: To make money we loose our health and then to restore our health we loose money. We live as if we are never going to die and we die as if we never lived.

Friday, July 20, 2007

U don't know how good your life is...

if you think you are unhappy, look at them if you think your job is tough, how about him? if you think your salary is low, how about her?
If you think you don't have many friend's
you think study is a burden, how about her?

when you feel like giving up, think of this man

if you think you suffer in life, do you suffer as much as he does?
if you complaint about your transport system, how about them?

if your society is unfair to you, how about her?
" That which is beautiful is not always good; but that which is good is always beautiful"
Where can we go to find God if we cannot see him in our hearts & in every living being.









Blonde jokes

OK, so there's this blonde driving down the road in her brand new, candy-apple red, $125,000 Lamborghini. She's cruisin' about 95, radio blaring, having a great time. She comes up on this trucker who is carrying a double-wide home and is taking up both lanes. To her disliking, he is only going about 45. To get the point across that she wants to get past, she decides to tailgate him. So, she gets to within a foot of his rear bumper. The trucker looks back and sees her on his ass, and motions for her to get off of it, but to her it looks like a wave and she waves back. Since her first attempt was futile, she decided to get a little closer and begin flashing her headlights, hopefully making herself more visible in the process. Once again the trucker sees her on his ass, and this time motions for her to pull over to the side of the road.

The trucker steps out of his vehicle with a chunk of chalk and draws a circle three feet in diameter in the middle of the road. He instructs her not to move until he tells her to. Naive as she was, she agrees to it and steps inside it.

The trucker goes back to his truck and pulls out a 50-ounce Louisville Slugger. He walks over to the Lamborghini and beats it, and beats it, and beats it again. When he is done, all that is left is a brand new, candy-apple red, $125,000 pile of metal. Satisfied, he throws the bat in his truck and walks over to the blonde. When he gets there, to his astonishment, she is rolling around on the street laughing hysterically. He asks her, "Why are you laughing? I just beat the crap out of your car!!" She is laughing too hard to respond, but between giggles he can make out, "While you weren't looking I stepped out of the circle!"

Newly Wed Rules

A couple were married and, following the wedding, the husband laid down some rules. "I'll be home when I want, if I want, and at what time I want," he insisted. "And, I don't expect any hassle from you. Also, I expect a decent meal to be on the table every evening, unless I tell you otherwise. I'll go hunting, fishing, boozing, and card-playing with my buddies whenever I want. Those are my rules," he said. "Any comments?" His new bride replied, "No, that's fine with me. But, just understand that there'll be sex here at seven o'clock every night... whether you're here or not."

Unmask the Three Thieves of Peace

Following is a list for special Self-study to help get you started up the path of spiritual freedom. After a careful review of these peace stealing conditions, take time to make a list of your own. Keep it simple. Use casual observations of yourself and others around you to be a spiritual detective.

1. One of the first thieves of our peace is spending time thinking about what others are thinking about us. Can we see that the only reason we are concerned with what others may be thinking about us is due to an imagined fear that they may have some power to take away what we are clinging to for our equally imagined peace? Let go! No one has the power to take peace away from you. It isn't theirs to give!

2. Another thief of peace is building a "case" against anyone for any reason. No one can steal our peace, so finding fault with another for how we feel is like falling asleep under the sun and then blaming it for the burn we get! Drop whatever you have been tricked into resenting and watch peace return to take its place.





3. And last but not least, another common thief of peace is trying to measure ourselves. For instance, have you ever noticed how, most of the time, we cannot have a conversation with someone without walking away and measuring our own performance? Even walking through a supermarket we wonder whether people are looking at us or not, and then we act accordingly. Step out of these mental movies; their producer is the misery of self-measuring. Let go because you know that it's impossible to be self-conscious and also be at peace.





There are many other ways in which our peace is stolen, such as when we find ourselves caught up in the excited anticipation of something, good or bad, coming our way or in the endless comparison of our lives to those of others -- friends and strangers alike! Hoping to find a sense of peace in any form of comparison or anticipation is like waiting for a dark, overhead thundercloud to rain sunlight. We must aim to be this honest with ourselves in each moment.





For extra benefit, and as a way to amplify the impact of these lessons, take a piece of paper and write down on the top of it: "Known or Possible Suspects Who Are Stealing My Peace." Then make a list of those thoughts, feelings, habits, or beliefs you have that you think need closer observation. This simple exercise will help you to exorcise those inner thieves that are intent on stealing your contentment.

Say No to "Excuses"

So, we all have excuses in life that we fall back on time and time again. Maybe because of difficult upbringings, or hardships, certain beliefs have laid their imprint on you. Excuses keep you from venturing forward, in that they keep you safe from possible heartbreak. Having an excuse excuses you from facing the truth, while keeping you in your comfort zone. Maybe someone uses the excuse that they never have enough time. Sound familiar? Then, they create a lifestyle that feeds into this excuse. They keep extremely busy, they overcommit themselves, they take on far too many responsibilities. Then they tell themselves "See, I told you I never have enough time". Well their wish is granted. Others tell themselves that they will always be overweight, it's just in their genes. Because they believe this excuse, they continue to eat unhealthy foods and stray from exercise. Why bother, they tell themselves, if they are always going to be out of shape anyway. This plays into the victim mentality. Not very empowering.

What if you didn't have any excuses to fall back on? What if you took responsibility for all of your choices and all of the subsequent consequences? Would this make your life harder in that you would have to venture out there and face some of your fears? Or, would it make you stronger and more confident because you would be taking responsibility for all of your actions? You wouldn't be using excuses as your safety net. In order to move past your excuses, you first have to admit you have them in the first place. This is the difficult part. Once you've admitted that you don't need to be overweight for the rest of your life, then you need to do something about it. Something to think about.

Great Painting

A bottle that looks like it is coming out the side of the trailer.

The second is a canvas tote bag

The third is of Pepsi cases and they are all stacked on the ceiling, and the bottom of the trailer is empty

The fourth is of a truck with the windshield facing the back, and there has been a driver painted in the drivers
seat looking back over his shoulder to appear like he is driving backwards:

The fifth one is of an aquarium with fish swimming in it

The sixth one is of a bookshelf with books lined up in it, and a post it note with an advertisement

The last one is for Pringles Hot & Spicy. The side of the trailer has the appearance
of having been through a fire that has ravaged the truck's interior

Good Ads to enlight your weekend

















Sense of Humor

As the world move in fast pace, every country, government, private and public institution, every CEO, and people at large in this universe strive for their ultimate dreams, one might forget the importance of strong society around us. Few days ago, many might notice one of the country's major headliner, a mother kill her own daughter and then went to the police to report her daugther is missing. Is she insane? Do we play some part when this social problem occur? When prime minister keep stressing that we will achieve the Vision 2020 and so many other visions, social problem also keep increasing. Look at Johor, locals and tourists mainly from Singapore does not feel safe. To me, that was a shame to the country. Anyway, i seldom talk on the politics, i bring this out because i encounter one very "touching" advertisement from UNICEF...take a look:

So, start love your family members more, i know everybody in this world is busy but spend some time with your loves one, what if you're damn rich but not able to spend "quality" time with your family? There is no right or wrong, just my perception. Adios!!!

Are you prepare for success?

You have just won the lottery! Congratulations! This is exactly what you've wished for and you finally won! You are so excited. But, are you prepared? Do you have a great financial advisor picked out? If not, how will you choose one that you can trust? Do you know how you'll invest the money so it lasts and makes money for you to secure your future? Do you know how you'll upgrade your life and how much it will cost for each improvement? Have you envisioned how you might use the money to better mankind or the earth? Do you know how to think like a millionaire?

You've finally been selected for that promotion you've wanted for years. You are so excited: new title, fancy office, fat paycheck, and one of your perks is your own executive coach! (Okay, so I had to plug that one in.) Everything you've been working for has finally paid off. Are you ready for the hard work ahead? Are you ready for the increase in responsibility? Have you considered how you want to be known in this new position - your new brand - and how you want others to treat you? Have you developed your delegating, organization, and time management skills so you don't find yourself working 60 hours a week? Are you able to communicate your vision and the outcomes you seek clearly and effectively? Are you intimidated by titles and high-powered individuals or do you have the self-confidence and the ability to speak up for yourself when you have something to share? Have you learned how to handle your emotions with style and grace or do you still get ugly when you're frustrated or angry?

Perhaps instead of money or title, you've just met the man or woman of your dreams. You are so happy, so in love. Are you ready to be in love, in joy, and in happiness every day for the rest of your life? Are you ready to give up the single's life and stop "searching" and complaining about how hard it is to find someone...? Do you have the "space" in your time to spend with this person? Are you prepared to let go of control, of having things your way, and are you open to explore new possibilities that includes someone else? Are you willing to accept someone as they are without trying to mold them into someone you think they should be? Are you ready to embrace partnership and commit to creating an extraordinary relationship? This means, you have to be an extraordinary person and partner. Have you done the personal development work and are you willing to continue to work on yourself as you grow in love with this person?

Whatever it is you think you want, you need to prepare for success. Whatever your vision for success, while you are working on achieving it, you must also grow yourself into the kind of person you need to be in order to manage that success.

When you finally get what you want, you find yourself in new territory. What you had was familiar; whether it was comfortable or not, it was within your comfort zone and you were accustomed to living that way. When you achieve something new, be it a degree or promotion or new relationship, you have to "be" different. People struggle with this so much because mostly we know how to "do". But the reality is that if you have not experienced true love in your adult life and it finally knocks on your door, how will you recognize it? Will you be able to embrace it and then maintain this new way of life? If you've been broke for 30 years and now you're rich, can you handle the wealth responsibly so that wealth becomes your new way of life? What if you were finally healthy after 10 years of an illness? You will need to accept health as a new way of life and live differently now that you are able to be more active. Or what if you were finally thin after being overweight for 25 years? You'll be a different person; how will you handle the looks and attention from others? Will you be ready to embrace the "thin you"? Can give up the emotional baggage that comes with holding onto that excess weight and learn to appreciate your body and feel good about yourself?

Laughter is the Universal Language

"Laugh, and the world laughs with you..." Maybe instead of the fast-track, we should get on the laugh-track.

Many might argue that love is the universal language, not laughter. Can you look at someone and absolutely know that their thoughts are loving ones? Does everyone look the same when they feel love in its various forms? Not really. You can look at someone laughing and recognize it for what it is. Love is not always "contagious," but laughter often is.



What caused me to think about this is my friend's life partner whom I've known for nearly eight years. There are many good things I could say about him; but as many times as I'd been a guest in their home, he and I never really related. In fact, I'll make this about me and say that I just wasn't able to connect energetically with him...until the night of laughter mentioned in an earlier column, but from a different perspective.



The moment that linked our energies is etched into my mind. I was downstairs when he did something upstairs that sent me into bouts of belly-laughs. When I heard him respond to my laughter with his own, I literally felt the energy click into place. I walked upstairs and over to where he sat, both of us still laughing, and felt a wall between us lift. At that moment, it wasn't intellectual dialogue or commonalities that linked us, it was laughter, the great equalizer. I'm not going to say that we now sit and gab with each other like old friends; but both of us are aware that something changed. My own comfort level around him is far more relaxed.



We attempt many methods to connect with the diverse groups we share our planet with because it's not always simple with so many language and cultural (and perceived) differences. Perhaps what we need to do from time-to-time is find a way to laugh together. Difficult to imagine political leaders starting a serious discussion with, say, a Charlie Chaplin film where words are not needed. Maybe laughing for an hour with someone, seeing how much we have and might have in common, may cause both sides to pause before considering harming each other. We know that laughter heals. If we used it more often, we could possibly detoxify our individual bodies, minds, and spirits, as well as our global aspects.


Start smiling today!!Enjoy your weekend.
