I read this from a newsletter by BFM (Business FM). We always talk about persistence in Business. We always talk about how practice makes perfect. But what we don't really explain is the result that will come for doing so. Here it is..

While this presentation mainly to get the attention of the Americans, I can't help wondering how this would affect Malaysia and most of it's people who rather live in denial, being ignorant, and try to avoid any changes from happening to them or

OR if you have always believe that our local bands is never as good as just about anybody outside Malaysia..OR You are actually a fan and a music appreciator.

When you need to look for information, you Google it. When you need to learn more about anything online, you Podcast.BUT, that would not happen until you know what a podcast is. Maybe you're an Accountant, a Lawyer, a teacher or worst still.. a Politician where your field of work does not catch up with the ever growing WEB 2.0 technology for the masses. What would you do to catch up with the rest

Throughout life, you'll find many quitters. We're thought to be quitters. The idea of living happily ever after is actually living a life with no risk, not trying anything new and if there's anybody else whose life otherwise and being considered successful.. just tell yourself "he is just lucky".OK, I've been telling people otherwise but yet they use my life instead as a benchmark.

What's your life purpose? There's a reason to everything. Everything happens for a reason. But, do you ever thought about (I do mean really give it a thought..)the reasons behind all the things that you've done, your daily activities and whatever things that you may do in the future? Think about it. If every single life have it's purpose. What would yours be?If there's a reason to all the doings
