Relax

Getting restless 'n lethargic at times. Whom isn't. Biting our fingernails, driving endlessly 'n beverages along the line. Our thoughts are playing Tom 'n Jerry with us. Like it or not, getting hold of this syndrome requires composure 'n a clear mind.

Setting our priorities, satisfying our whims 'n simply grabbing the next cup of coffee are clues to what we are aching for before we start the revolution again.

Sometimes, we don't realised how much we are involved in a certain task for a long spell of time too. We forgot to take time for relaxation. Over-indulgence because of our passion 'n desire. For instance, long tennis session, finishing up a dress one is making, thonging with tools at the garage or lovemaking throughout the night.

Taking time for relaxation works wonder. Time to contemplate, reflection 'n focus again on our goals. To be ourselves, contented with whom we are 'n happy with the things we have will once again put us on track. We no longer feel lost or wasting our energy 'n time on a wild goose chase.

It pays to indulge ourselves in light-hearted activities too like going out, browsing one's favourite magazine or offshore fishing. They increase our horizon 'n boost our confidence over time. Juggling our pastime will not only dish out the monotony of routines but encourage us to relax.

Take the path less-travel rather than knocking incessantly on a closed door (( :

At home

Sleep comes to mind. Many do otherwise. They are busy as ever. Work to be done in the kitchen. Tidy up the bed. Doing the dishes. Reading our dailies. And the comfort of talking to our love ones.

Fiddling with the gadgets is a new phenomenal. In the old days, we won't be surprised spending hours in front of the tube, cup after cup of coffee 'n sleeping relentlessly. How things have changed.

Daydreaming is the domain of outright laziness. For the learned 'n those whom are aware of the market right now, there are plenty of avenues to throng. No longer practical to hang loose for a spell of time, many have started 'n pursue their ambition even at home. Think of the interconnectivity with the gadgets at our disposal. And the hassle of closing a deal in the yesteryears. Dealings change hands at enormous speed for those whom is cutting the deal.

In developing countries, maids are employ to do housechores at minimal wages. This leave the household ample time to pursue things at home. Correspondence, conversations over the line, grapevines, wooing partners etc. And others i leave it to your imagination.

Family members taking turns to revolve their activity around the house can be arresting 'n hilarious at the same time. For the old guards, The Brady Bunch Show 'n The Watsons are a distant memory. You never know what is playing on people's mind nowadays as most are fiddling with their gadgets at home.

In the near future, home is like a working place too with all the equipments synonymous with an office environment. Houses with cctv can prove frivolous where staying in can be viewed by someone.

On the other hand, for the needy, staying at home means getting a good rest after a hard day's work. Relatively, the concept home in the dictionary no longer applies.

Home is where the heart is needs a new deliberation on how 'n what we perceive as a member of the household.

Hopefully, over time, progress 'n modernisation will preserve certain values we hold dear at home in the old days.

Love, care 'n understanding make our home sweet home (( :

Enough

We often mistaken them with giving up. Going in circles to make ends meet. In the name of survival one needs to move on. To cover the ground 'n finish our assignment.

Constantly looking for sources. Our creation will be lacking otherwise. Looking for ways to persuade our customers as to the project we are working on. Needs guarantee 'n worth the dollar. Think of it another way. How would you acquire money if you are working in the dark?

Meanwhile, let's muster all the energy we have available to foray into the future. They might deplete or even halt if we stop putting effort for a duration of time. Our detractors 'n potential clients alike might think we have lost interest in the project in question. Over time, conscience will tell us how important it is to carry on. A career recognise by those whom know you. Not whom you know.

In addition, reminders, phonecalls 'n follow-ups are essential to ensure connection with would-be customers. New effort, innovations 'n latest offerings which are deemed attractive need to be elaborated 'n acknowledged too. Assumptions are futile.

Let it be clear that our Clients know the availability 'n price of our product. Convenience 'n reachable too.

Last but not least, selling is most critical. No point spending an aweful time in creation but fail poorly when it comes to garnering support 'n sales of one's product.

From where would you gain funds for your upcoming project if not from the revenue of the present one?

Fiction

Yup i can provide a twist to a true story to make it much more interesting

Like cousin-made Chiengmai umbrellas instead of umbrella for a rainy day. Or i was stucked with my door jammed in a traffic congestion. Adjective-wise

Whereabouts of Annie is on the air or rather daddy is going out with my girlfriend. Proverbs

Depends on the story-teller, people whom love to read sometimes read between the lines too. Everybody knows that.

For the imaginative one, every page is a turner. With so many apps to work on mastery of a language is handy indeed. We can enter our whims 'n brand new ideas at the click of the mouse. Furthermore, by switching apps, we minimise the risk of materials going to oblivion.

Fiction or not, there is no clear lines in between for easy contemplation. Reporting 'n writing has become more challenging to the producer 'n mind-boggling to the readers. More so as people from all walks of like have become more evolved with exposure to both old 'n new materials.

For those with strong sense of awareness, the collusion of old 'n latest innovative ideas available to the masses provide easy fodder for mind-enhancement.

This of course doesn't spell the end of light materials make do for easy reading. The future of prints is looking bright as ever.

My hobby of reading certainly will go a long way 'n spare the distance ( :

Sick parents

One must be lying if he confessed never complain about sick parents at home.

One day we will be old too. But, i must admit due to our work commitments, tight schedule 'n shameful to say leisure time for ourselves, we usually lose our bearings when confronted with ill-health parents.

I bet there must be a lesson God wants us to learn when it comes to caring for the elderly. Selfishness comes to mind. Impatience with slowness 'n incessant mumblings are the norms.

As i grow older i realise how ill-prepared i am when it comes to this particular stage of life. Things like putting more emphasize on savings, thriftiness 'n some carings along the way would have make things better for my folks. Irresponsible too thinking of how sometimes i get carried away with the carefree life during my heydays.

I wish repentance at my stage will be just in time to care for my 73-year-old mom whom is quite sick at the moment. With medical care 'n sufficient rest coupled with a little token of love from myself, hopefully she will recover fast 'n back to pink of health.

God bless

Engineering

Mankind first invented fire 'n the wheel.

With complexity in daily life, they make do with more creative tool to pry, dig, turn etc. The human brain is hungry for many features in their creations. Aesthetics, forms 'n function. Let's beam to the present world we live in.

Latch is inadequate 'n locksmith came out with tattooed padlock 'n remote controls. Fuel driven to hybrid. Housing to condos. Steam engine to bullet train. I rest my case.

Not far-fetch to say that engineering has taken foothold in life itself like the human anatomy. Plastic surgery, drugs that induce moodiness 'n relationship gurus.

You must be a jughead thinking everything is what it seems. One thing leads to another. Pushing forward is essential or we will be left behind playing with old tools, old sentiments 'n lacking in self-development.

We need to find ways, new tactics 'n strategy to go about our conventional problem-solving skill in product creation, human relationship 'n our profession. That's what the latest buzz in engineering science is all about.

Gadgetry is a good example. We keep our friends in the pocket, switching channels without leaving the seat 'n sending mails without the postman.

Another instance is designer lawyers to get you out of a marriage(with money), dentist whom can do wonders to your teeth 'n the all-paid vacation trip.

I have a feeling there is more engineering marvel behind the scene. Pre-launch signs are imminent.

We just need a training eye to see out the genuine one.




Bahan bacaan

Di mana2, bahan komersial berunsur fesyen terkini, kesihatan moden, kereta mewah, novel2 generasi Y dan sebagainya dijadikan bahan laris.

Bahan2 ini dijadikan ukuran sejauh mana penerbit mendapat habuan. Pengusaha media seperti tv, majalah, buku dan jualan langsung tidak ada pilihan tetapi mengikut arus ini.

Para pengguna yang mudah jemu, tidak sabar menanti keperluan semasa dan terikut-ikut dengan kehendak masyarakat terkini memberi tamparan hebat kepada pengusaha.

Misalan, seorang pengusaha iks semestinya mendapat pengelolaan dari penaja jika ingin berjaya. Mereka cuma berada dalam kedudukan transit sebelum mencapai satu tahap di mana mereka mampu berdikari.

Soal mencari pengelola bukan terletaknya dengan siapa kita kenal tetapi pihak mana yang mengenal kita.

Sebelum kita mencapai matlamat sebagai pengusaha yang disegani dari kedudukan transit ini, kita seharusnya terus berusaha.

Majukan diri, tambahkan pengetahuan dan tidak mudah putus asa harus dititikberatkan untuk menentukan kesinambungan usaha kita dalam perjalanan ke destinasi seterusnya.

Di harap, moga2 di persimpangan yang akan datang, kita dapat apa yang dihajati Insya-Allah
