stress is when you feel out of control. you're stressed because you fear that things might not turn out the way it supposed to be, but the world is full of uncertainty, so why stress? just do your best and get things in proper order and be well prepared to face uncertainties =)

big bang change?

changes are good. if changes bring fresh perspective, or could result in better and more effective environment. however, it will be dangerous if changes were to be implemented too quickly and dramatically. it would certainly cause rebellious among staff. an organisation wouldn't die because of a staff, but it wouldn't survive for long without staff and especially capable staff. being a new management, many factors should have been taken into account before implementing changes or restructuring plan. making change to an organisation is actually easy, just change the current way of doing things. if somewhere is not right, point a finger at it and yell change. sini tarak betoi, change. so.. lets see how The One is going to deal with all these messes he has caused. Perhaps all these were part of his plan, and curious to know what's next xD

现实

很多人说‘80后’的年轻人，大多数都承受不了大的压力。我认同这看法。我们这年代的人，不需为钱而烦恼。爸妈们都已经为我们的前途和钱途着想了。也许我们太依赖着父母亲吧。最近的富士康(foxconn)，我个人认为，某种程度上反映了这个现象。我们所用的，所穿的，那一样不是父母给的。单靠我的salary,要买车，买屋，供车，供屋，吃喝穿，实在不容易，如果结婚了，肯定饿死老婆‘浑’臭屋。

赚钱真的不容易。当我full time study的时候，看到一样喜欢的，就买。完全没觉得浪费钱的感觉。赚钱很慢，但用钱却非常的快。如果抵挡不了诱惑，肯定扑街。最近觉得自己的责任越来越大，身为儿子，身为一个成年人，已经23岁的我，还依赖着父母亲，真丢脸。

我有很多理想要追求，但没基础。理想和现实还有一段的距离。最近发现思想变了，有点踏实的感觉。做事也认真了很多。
为自己的前途，钱途和理想，在这现实的世界里更努力，更积极。

为了生活我可以忍，你可以看不起我，但不能侮辱我的人格，贬低我的理想，这我不能忍，我要证明我能做得到。

super epic... =)

college life is supposed to be fun. college is supposed to be the place where we learn how to face our future, it is supposed to be the place where we can build our network, it is supposed to be the place where we can share our knowledge and learn how to communicate with others.

ok, in reality it is not. not just college, but everywhere, every corner of the world, as long as got human at any place, politics follow. This fella dun like that fella, that fella dun like this fella. it could be a good thing, coz we have the inherited habit of competing with others. with this ability, we improve our society. oni if we use this ability in a correct way, or else it becomes a sohai habit.

Let Them Be a Boss
Give your employees freedom to do anything they want, but in compliance. Let them feel they are not slaves, but working a great job, as they are the boss of their own job.

Success Tips for a Manager
Good managers are always concerned about the employees. They not only govern the employees, and blame and criticize every job, but tell how to make a good team, work together, and improve the spirits of the employees

Fairness
When leading and managing a group of human beings, treating each member with fairness is a must. This way no one feels that there is favouritism by the manager.

Faithfulness and a listening ear
Hello, the habit of being faithful and giving listening ears to your staff promotes a good working environment and sustains quality leadership and management ability.

GM in an International Organization
Well good, and want to add to this topic of Good Leader and Manager. Must be friendly and motivated, and if you want to have a healthy organaizational setup, you must facilitate your worker who works under you. and you get all accomplishments reporting from that person. You must have a good relationship, but strict with work, and must keep yourself updated about your work and the performance of your team. Thanks

Management Success Tips
For me transparency is very important. I always do my best to keep my team informed, I want them to participate, I want their feedback, I never leave my team in the dark, especially when times or a situation is difficult. I know that it makes them feel as if they are a part of the solution and that what they say and think is important. I worked for many years with a manager who controlled me and never let me in on anything, I promised myself I would never be that way !!!
—MartineBerube

A Role Model...
I believe that a good leader serves as a role model to his/her team members. By showing them the right attitude and values towards work, they will unknowingly adapt the same attitude. What a leader knows doesnt matter much but by doing it is what matters the most.
—Guest jpe237

Share the work, yet be leader
Do not make them feel they need to do the job because they have to, but because they want to. I prove to them my own motto, "one heart,one team,and two hands" to achieve the common goal. No harm in being a role model; sharing the workload in the beginning for the sake of encouraging them). Be a good listener, respect their opinions, share and explain yours. However,always remember one thing: You are the leader.
—Guest Rajaa Skaf

Your employees dont just work for you...
You work for them as well. Without your best efforts they will never be successful. If you don't care about them, they will not care about you. Take the time to ensure they have the tools to succeed. Make sure they are trained properly, and that they have clear direction. If they need something, say a day off, do your best to give it to them and let them know why if you can't. Find that thing inside all of us that motivates them and give it a spark. Some people want to be challenged, others want a sense of ownership, others just want to feel appreciated. When your employees see that you are working for them they will return the favor.

Do the distasteful stuff first
Don't wait until the end of the day, do the distasteful stuff first. After all, that's what you are getting paid for. Procrastination can ruin your whole day. If you handle that performance counseling issue, or that complaint first, the rest of the day will be a piece of cake. You arrive at work rested and full of energy. That's the perfect time to take on the distatsteful taste, when you're operating on all eight cylinders. Your energy and enthusiasm wanes as the day goes on and by 2 or 3 in the afternoon, you are not operating at your peak. Your success in dealing with any issue is directly proportionate to the energy level you bring to the situation. Don't hesitate, deal with it with that first cup of coffee in hand! You won't be sorry.

Start from zero sen
I managed to be a manager for a huge tuition centre in Mersing, Johor Malaysia. Beginning from zero I distribute my advertisement from newspaper stall. From that I got the money and I managed to pay all of my capital and shop deposits. Now I got 6 workers. My students are always rising in numbers. I am so happy. I can relax and teach only 2 hours a day and got multiple rewards. I sell beverages and nuts to my students. I am planning to open students library and english centre. Lets come to my tuition centre.

Leaders vs. Managers
Everyone has the potential to be a leader and a manager. A leader looks for innovation and CHALLENGES the status quo. A manager looks for order and MAINTAINS the status quo.In EVERY job function there is a time to lead and a time to manage. Help everyone to understand this fundamental concept and your enterprise will fly, and meet today's enormous challenges.

seldom see mr david laugh so much before xD miss p3 class, mr david u rock~~~ haha
too bad not all were there, but stil had a wonderful night =)



photo session with mr david and the rest =)

All I am and all I know,

shows me I have far to go.

Yesterdays and tomorrows,

prove I haven't much to show,

for all the ways I've had to grow.

But, all my knowledge, I bestow,

upon a seed I plant below,

the earth and hope with hope against all hope,

that i can fix the hearts I broke.

And that I do not have to pay,

for all the dreams I chose to chase.

Because my lungs are chilled as I am winded.

Running in the cold too long but, I'm not thrilled that it has ended.

So I take the time to stop and watch the skies of faith and will so ever-splinded.

last day of march

So many ups and downs since i've started work. Didn't expect that I would have the chance to experience all the unexpected. Basically, everyday is a new challenge to me. No matter how nice I plan my work, there is sure 1 or 2 fantastic-bombastic event occurs.

I used to not-to-care my actions, I would follow my direction and my own style of doing things. I've never ever think of all the consequences of my action. I've never think of how others feel. Perhaps I'm selfish, in fact I am.

Just lost a friend of mine, and didnt expect that he would end his life like that. Didnt know him long though, 2 months+. But he is the only one in the company whom I respected the most. He is a 60 yrs old plus uncle. He was a bachelor and was staying alone. Due to closing down of the company and didnt get a sen afta being retrenched (thanks to the stupid fucker directors), he choosed to end his life. I used to advised him when he was still in the company, chit chat awhile with him before he goes for lunch and afta he back from lunch.

Well, I dunno how to describe my feeling now. I thought by sharing things out and nothing is unsolvable. But sometimes we do have to face the reality, and for the past 23 years, I've been living on my own imagination, thought everything also 'no problem'. Everything can cincai punya, everything also is tak apa punya.

But NO !!! Don't be optimistic, don't be pessimistic, be realistic.

I'm growing up everyday. THanks for the opportunity to experience all the abovementioned events.

If I have to climb the highest mountain to get what I want, I will learn how to climb, then I'll climb it. If I have to dive the deepest ocean to get what I want, I will learn how to dive, then I'll dive it. If I get disappointed because things did not appear as I wanted, I will learn how to accept it, then I'll try to accept it. At least now I have experienced how to swim, to climb and to dive and also how to accept everything that came from my effort. Then, I will try again to do better." Johni Pangalila

work experience

this week was my 3rd week of work, fyi, im currently doing liquidation for a hardware & machinery company near old town. The company is forced to be wound up by court order, after one of the shareholder presented a petition to the court. Basically, we took over the operation of the company, we are responsible to collect payments, pay off all debts and expenses, in short, we are the 'new boss'. There are 2 firms involved, Deloitte KassimChan and Rabin & Associates from KL. We are joint liquidators.

I'm with my senior for the past 2 weeks, but this week onwards, my senior will no longer with me, and i have to work alone there, directly accountable to senior partner and partner. Im nervous like hell, there are many things that i dunno, and im scared to ask my boss. Instead, i ask those employees there. Ofcoz, they look down on me, but i keep asking them lol.

Come to think of it, this was a great learning opportunity to me. I'm in charge of all the business transactions, collect payments from debtors, phone them up and chase for payment, being chased by creditors, pay salary, count stocks, secure the company premises and handle people there.

Handling people was the major challenge. The company has around 15 staffs including 2 directors. This company showed me the real world, the reality of the world. I'm being kutuk-ed gao gao there, luckily i'm not a malu or shy guy, still can take it, but what to do, many things i tak tau ma, like a blur small kid in client's office LOL. Im still learning, and i promised to myself, one day i will no longer bully or 'har' by others, neEeeh ~~~ LOL.

smile =)

work

Joined Deloitte on 13th this month, hmm first day itself also has many things to do. I'm still very blur in the office and in client's place, there are many things to learn, my seniors and managers have no time to give me training, I have to guide myself in order to catch up the flow of work. All i need to do is "observing and following". I worked 10 hours on the first day of work, I didnt expect that, I'm kinda overwhelmed by the geng jeong-ness and the pace of the office. Luckily my manager, principal and my seniors are friendly, we chat, we eat together and we work together. The Partner is frenly too xD

I have 2 days to calm myself down, have a temporary break, trying to figure out what i've done for the past 3 days and trying to figure out what to do next. Hope i can blend with the office culture >.<

Journey

From where I started to where I am today

The journey has been long & tiring

from nothing to some thing I am today

It’s not been an easy journey.

Tried with luck; Tried with hard work

Tried with destiny too

But nothing worked for me.

It’s not been an easy journey.

Found love but lost love too

Found friends but lost them too

Found money, even lost that one too

But the journey continued

Today I stand facing the world

It’s beckoning me to start all over again

While I miss my love

With whom I could start the journey again

I called up my love to join me again

In the journey of life that never concludes

Loser! ! She called me

The lesson of journey never concludes.

I want to move on without my love

Even without my friends & money

As life moves on; I move on with it

To a journey that never concludes

Walking alone on this path

With guts and determination

I want to continue the journey again

A journey where people would remember me

As the man who won million hearts
