A Meaningful Story
The boy was the gem to this loving couple..
One morning the husband saw a bottle of medicine on the table. Being late for
office he could only asked
his wife to keep it in the cupboard.
His wife, preoccupied in the kitchen totally forgot the matter.
The boy saw the bottle, fascinated by its colour and drank it all.
Such huge dosages turned fatal to the child. He collapsed. The mother
hurried him to the hospital. He died.
The mother was stunned. She was terrified how she was going to face her
husband.
When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw the dead
child, he looked at his wife and uttered just five words.
QUESTIONS :
1. What were the five words ?
2. What is the implication of this story?
Scroll down to read.............
ANSWER :
The husband just said "I am with you Darling".
The husband's totally unexpected reaction is a proactive behavior.
The child is dead. There is no point in finding fault with the mother.
Besides, if only he had taken time to keep the bottle away, this would
not have happened.
No one is to be blamed. She had also lost her only child. What she
needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband.
That is what he gave her.
If everyone can look at life with this kind of perspective, there would be
much fewer problems in the
world.
"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."
Take off all your envies, jealousies, selfishness, and fears.
And you will find things are actually not as difficult as you think.

YOUNGER GENERATION
These kids are very good in maths. Tell them to work a month for RM500, after much consideration, they think its not worth their time. They dont care or dont want to work their way up the corporate ladder. They just want to jump out from a plane and land on top the corporate ladder!!.. How long do you think they can survive on the Directors' seat or CEO position? Ok, .. Manager's position... Do you think they know what makes a good leader? Do you think they know what is "managing a profitable business"...? Or better still, Do you think they know how to earn money? They are not getting enough exposure to lead a team or manage a company. Honestly, I think they dont know how to take care of themselves.
Alot of youngsters nowadays chose to be in the sales industry. Be it any sales. Whatever the company is selling as long as they are a SALESMAN!!! Why?? Simply for the freedom. They dont have to be stucked in an office the whole day. They can be with anyone they like, be it friends or enemies or lovers... or they can even go home for a good nap. They never taught of producing results. They always have an excuse. Excuses eg. dont know what the customer wants, dont know how to sell, dont know who to sell to, dont know how to handle objections... blah blah blah... How do they know how to overcome all these if they never do sales even though they are SALESMEN!!
Let me clear your doubts. I finally understood some of them. They just want to get paid. Ask them to fill up marketing reports and plan a week ahead, and you know what happen? They RESIGN!! They cant be tied down by it. They are too commited to their relaxed lifestyle. Payday gives them money for enjoyment. They dont want to prove themselves. They dont even know their own strength. They dont know themselves. They dont think about 10 years ahead, what will become of them. Would they have a family of their own? How much would his income be?
A saying goes like this : "If you dont want to be in the same situation five years from now, then first thing to do is change yourself " "You must first change yourself before you can change your situation" . Change your mindset. Set a goal for yourself. How could you change your situation if you dont change yourself?
A speaker once told us a story of her son. Her son is not serious in his studies. He does not care if his results are the best, just so long as he passed. One day, she realised that his results will not be able to get him into any Uni. Not even the local Uni. She thought carefully on how she should handle this situation. One fine day, her son was at home napping in the living room. She brought him the newspaper and woke him up. She talked to him about his results, alerting him of the consequences. Her son simply said "Its still a long way before i finished my studies. Why Worry, Mom?" She had anticipated his reply and prepared her respond for it. She said "Son, i want you to turn the newspaper to the Classified Ads. What positions in there do you see suits your results?" ... He browsed through the managerial post, then the executive post, the supervisory post, ... he didnt looked lower than the management levels.. His mom helped him to find one post which is so "for him"? Its a waiter post in a Hotel. She said "Son, see! I found you a job! You will be able to work in a Hotel. You will get paid serving your friends meals when they go there.. How nice? Now, you go to hotel for meals and drinks, dad and myself are paying for it, next time you dont need to pay to drink in that hotel. You get paid by them for serving customers." .. How about it? Why not apply for it and give it a try? Her son went very quiet. No comments. However, that afternoon was the last time she reminded her son of the importance of studies. He woke up from his fantasy life and was a changed man after that.
I guess the thoughts serving his own friends meals and drinks is not his cup of tea after all...........

Your Best match 3, 5, 6, 9. Good match 2
I AM BACK!!!!
I am back... because a message woke me up ..
The message reads "Every problem is a small problem" & "In the end we only live to be happy".. I am very grateful to receive this message from a dear friend of mine. Thank you..(i am sure you know who you are huh)
These two messages are short but the meanings are deep.. straight to the point too. Yupe.. we only live once, we dont know how long we have to achieve our goals, we should always greet every obstacles, problems with an open mind, think before we leap, try and try till we cant try no more and most importantly give ourselves happiness.
My grandpa is 96 years old, quite healthy for his age, he seldom uses his wheelchair, he always enjoy family gatherings with all his kids , grandkids, grandkids' kids (what's the term for this) .. he has out lived all his brothers. He happened to be the only one migrated to Malaysia. They all stayed behind in China. He didnt get any education. Married young. Has many kids, which means i have many aunties, uncles, cousins, nephews, nieces...etc. (still i didnt collect much during chinese new year) Even though he didnt get much education, but he has a mind for business and to have his money work for him.
I have great respect for him (which i think i ought to tell him so). To me, he is the most intelligent, steady (our local term for responsible person), quiet man, monitored the share market like a hawk, firm and strict with his kids. During the last recession , the share market drops drastically (like never before). Everyone stopped investing. They were worried, their money stucked, wasted and they are losing bit by bit of it each day. My aunty was a remisier then. She told us, during those bad times, she had only one customer. That customer happened to be her father, my grandpa. He took the opportunity to invest more. He monitored his accounts everyday. Never sold a single share. I'll leave it to you gals and guys to guess how much he made when he finally sold his shares..........
Now, this is one man who is not afraid to take risks. None of his kids dare to advise him on ways or ideas to make money or manage their company. None of them dares to make any decision without his consent. He is after all still the King of the house.
I should go to him for some business advises but..... his hearing is terrible even when he had the hearing aid on!!! bad reception...
One issue I know for sure... his kids visits him very often so that he's not lonely. Chat with him, or chatting among themselves while he sits in his chair dozing off because he's still in control of his property and money. hmmm.... I know my statements here may sound abit cold, sarcastic maybe but it is a fact. Money talks. A wise man once told me that money looks down on people, money chooses who it wants to be with. I am very surprise none of his kids are as successful as him. They dont live in poverty but none of them inherited his intelligence or make time or opportunity to learn from him. Its sad. At his age, he's still supporting some of them, even supported some of his grandkids through university. They even asked him for a car when they came back from University. They need transport for work. He also contributed for their weddings. Can you believe that? At his age, ..its like his children never grew up

TAKING LEAVE
I SHALL BE GOING AWAY FOR AWHILE TO FIND MYSELF.. THEREFORE I WOULDNT BE BLOGGING FOR THE TIME BEING. HOPEFULLY , I'LL BE BACK SOON TO SHARE MORE WITH YOU
TQ
Plans & Strategies
Anyway, what happen was I ran out of plans because I only had 2 or 3 extra plans but seems that I had more hurdles in my life than I hope for. I have to KaoTao (bow) to my destiny. I am not born with a silver spoon. More like work, and work your butt off. Back to my story, I used up all my marketing skills, not accounting skills because I suck at that category. Big time. A guy I met once told me he failed in his business because he hates maths, hates all the small prined figures in one sheet of paper.. I must admit he is one marketing master. He has the right product the right location for business the right crowd... everything from surface looks perfect. Till one day, his shop remained closed for days and later we found he and his whole family has moved away in the mddle of night!! It was very sad for all of us.. we all missed the food he served
So, in order for me to avoid all the ugly scenes, I have a few mentors and his story as a lesson I must keep in mind. Arming with these "shields", I am ready for my on going never ending of battle in my business , that is if I am not distracted by the unnecessaries. You see, I happen to be an emotional person. It sucks!! I can handle any problems except the ones link to emotional. It really sucks!! I tried to meditate but I cant concentrate. Everything is crowded in my mind. Gosh..... Worst of all, I regard betrayal from the person I placed my trust with, as a sin that's not worth forgiving. I know this is my weakness. I know if i learn to forgive I wouldnt suffer so much. But I also have this fear, if I forgive, then I forget, leads to me being absent minded and negligent, leads to me being betrayed again - worst if by the same person.. Any idea how i can improve so that I am bullet proof from this sort of unneccessary pain in my heart??

SUNBLIND FOR ADVERTISEMENT
Initial Setup of Sunblind
Ever since the construction for a Hotel started, our dobi business has dropped. After enquiring from customers and friends, we were informed our original signage is not clear. Some people dont even know we are a laundry shop!! Not only have the construction affected our business, it seems the whole stretch of shophouses are suffering because of it. They have even close up the road for their constructions convenience. We doubt they even apply for it. This is a public road, how can anyone just close it up??? Well, that's Malaysia for you.
Well, we decided to put up a sunblind for advertisement. Here its stated a Laundry Shop only, not even the shop's name; Daily Laundry, both in english and chinese, telephone contact and our website address. We hope to have good respond from this setup.
Our Sunblind fully setup ..... NICE???? BEAUTIFUL??Sunday, August 3, 2008
LOSE WEIGHT THE HEALTHY WAY
Let me share with all my readers how I lose 9kg in 3 months . That was about two and a half years ago.. I didnt fast and I am not a exercise fan.. Exercise is hard work for me. Even though , I do know, understand and want to do it because age is catching up...
Friday, August 1, 2008
HEALTH SCREEN
Do you know anyone who is not afraid of terminal illnesses?
Do you know anyone who does not bother to take medication for his/her newly diagnosed illness?
Do you know anyone who couldnt be bothered about their health?
Well, let me tell you what i know and understand so far....
On an average scale :-
those in their late teens to 20s feel they are at the peak of their life, nothing would ever happen , they will not end up in a hospital seeking treatments, surgery is out of the question too because they are too young. They often see and hear about older people landing up in hospital. But NO,... definitely, NOT them.. yes?
One true story.. a girl age 25 was admitted to a specialist hospital after complaining of acute stomach/abdominal pain. Her family and herself of course, never thought she would end up in the surgery room on emergency basis. Initially, they thought she was suffering from food poisoning... Hey!, NO!! After enduring the pain.... Really pain pain, ok?.. for 2 - 3 days, and after being poke with needles for blood tests and etc... and after being checked by few different doctors,.. they finally know whats her problem. She had a cyst in her ovary. Now, you tell me.. A girl in her 20s , has anyone in her family ever suspected a cyst in her ovary or even her.... Does it ever occur to her? She didnt cry much,.. she is a very independent and strong will person , because she did not want to scare her mom, who is by the way, has been crying her eyes out.. She is scared , she is lost , she dont know whats happening, what went wrong.. her 25 year old girl is having this problem at this young age...
Now, come the 30s.... sure, they are aware of illnesses around.. sure they care of their health, sure they would go for treatments, sure they are not naive to think nothings ever going to happen,.... but they are to busy or lazy to take action.. its always in their minds to go for check up but they just couldnt find the time and are too stingy to spent for such check up.. They always tell themselves they should go, but they also tell themselves to wait another day another day another day........... some are too scared to know the results..
40s,.. they can feel age is catching up . Their staminas are down , they easily feels tired , joint pains , migranes, backache... etc.. This are the group who would go for medical, be it mild pain or acute pain...
50s and above ....... What's there to explain?? Of course, they are at the age of taking good care of their health..
Everyone should take the opportunity and make time to go (this goes to myself as well).. There are many health screen companies nowadays but before you decide on which company, you should try to do a market research on company background, the actual tests to be conducted, and please check out your agents too.. Some are so into sales, they tend to keep some facts from their customers. The pricing for this companies can range from RM1,000++ to RM10,000++ . You'll be surprise to know some companies offering a cheaper membership scheme actually conduct more tests. Also, these machines are like computers.. they are often upgrade, always a better version every now and then. We must check when was the last time the pioneers upgrade their machines or bought a new model. Most of the pioneers charged more than RM10,000++ for memberships..'
HAPPY HUNTING....
MEN!!!
Oh well, ... that day for exercise will come..
She's having lunch with her husband at one of their favourite spot. There they always saw that lady there too. Why is it they only notice her and not others you ask yourself? She's chinese ,fair complexion, hair dyed blond in colour, in her early 50s. Her spouse is a indian malay, well to-do but not the good looking type. She caught her husband staring at her as she was walking out of the shop. She felt he was drooling, since they did smiled to each other and he stared at her back from top to heel as she left.
She couldnt get those image out of her mind but she knows well enough to seek clarifications from him now. She wasnt sure how he would respond. Would he be defensive and offensive, would he take it as a joke, or would he just brush the topic aside???.... She knows she has lost the kind of "bond" between both of them of late... maybe they both have changed..
On their way back home, she decide to ask him as tactfully as she knows how.. Well, she wouldnt know his respond till she try, right? she thinks to herself. She chose to ask in a joking manner, teasing him of the way he looks at older women.. Gosh, but that woman has got Style!! .. She may not be a beauty, but she's an eye catcher.. for her Style.
He of course defended and argued gently over it. Saying "nonsense, you're being over sensitive, you're framing me, how could you be so unsure of yourself when you are many times more beautiful than her, younger too ..."
By the end of the conversation, he demaded an apology from her !!! He said she's making him sounds like a dirty old man, accusing him of things he didnt do,... therefore, an apology is essential...
She couldnt believed what she heard!!!!! Of the nerves!!!
