&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHFZwsWR0CONP7lhjQnS2QfKdFoYna_KHDQTXLFcHT-hc7fg9aIQLFfgKhFsc3JB-sgFULREw0HjTTWBB0X2GBZewbk3weZsH3ZV4bxmYgfm2Jk87Ph8tye6LFysNNTIa-hmPEiCPYQ1Fr/s1600/KRISIS-PARUH-BAYA.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; data-original-height=&quot;295&quot; data-original-width=&quot;295&quot; height=&quot;200&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHFZwsWR0CONP7lhjQnS2QfKdFoYna_KHDQTXLFcHT-hc7fg9aIQLFfgKhFsc3JB-sgFULREw0HjTTWBB0X2GBZewbk3weZsH3ZV4bxmYgfm2Jk87Ph8tye6LFysNNTIa-hmPEiCPYQ1Fr/s200/KRISIS-PARUH-BAYA.png&quot; width=&quot;200&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Sadar atau tidak setiap orang mengetahui bahwa kenyataan setiap hari usia kita terus berkurang, masa yang kita lalui tak bisa dihindari, berbagai pengalaman dari masa ke masa merupakan pengalaman transisi dari masa anak - anak ke masa muda, masa muda ke masa dewasa, masa dewasa ke masa tua, masa tua ke masa lanjut usia. Masa - masa peralihan atau puberitas ini sebenarnya hal yang normal, terjadi kepada pria dan wanita memasuki usia tertentu. Dimana masa anak - anak banyak waktu luang bermain masuk ke masa masuk sekolah, peningkatan akan pemenuhan kebahagian merupakan masalah yang akan di hadapi masa muda ke masa dewasa seperti mulai mengenal pasangan dan urusan mencari pekerjaan contohnya, berbagai faktor yang mungkin mempengaruhi memasuki usia 18 s/d 40, hingga sampai pada kebutuhan akan&amp;nbsp; stabilitas hidup. Penggambaran masalah transisi yang dihadapi tentu akan berbeda - beda, Seiring bertambahnya usia penyelesaian masalah ini cenderung terselesaikan di usia dewasa muda, orang-orang sudah lebih mapan dan stabil, seperti kekuatan fisik dan fisikis yang lebih baik, karir stabil atau usaha lancar dan pernikahan.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Keumuman memasuki usia 40 tahun keatas, merupakan periode pemenuhan kebutuhan yang lebih tinggi dalam kehidupan. Mungkin bagi sebagian orang telah menemukan makna kehidupan dengan nilai kreatif yang bisa di konversikan menjadi uang dan tercapainya tujuan yang di harapkan; membangun rumah, membeli motor/mobil contohnya, menikmati musik, memenuhi hobi dan mencari pengalaman melalui sesuatu yang baik. Atau malah sebaliknya keresahan dan kekhawatiran menginjak usia yang terus beranjak naik, pengalaman transisi yang berlebihan memicu perasaan yang tidak menentu seperti kekhawatir terhadap perubahan fisik, kemampuan perolehan ekonomi karena tuntutan situasi yang di hadapi tidak terelakan/dihindari.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Secara garis besar individu pada usia 40-an sudah merasa aman secara finansial serta merasa sehat dan bahagia, tetapi tidak semua mampu mencapai apa yang diharapkan sehingga dapat membuat mereka tertekan yang dirasa sebagai ancaman dan tantangan yang berat selama periode itu.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Diperiode ini seorang pria diharapkan sudah memiliki keluarga secara mandiri, memiliki usaha/karir yang jelas dan lebih bagus, karena sudah mempunyai tanggung jawab terhadap anak-anak dan orang tuanya maupun orang tua dan mertuanya yang sudah lansia serta tanggung jawab yang lebih tinggi terhadap lingkungan sosial disekitarnya. Setiap inidividu memiliki harapan yang tinggi, namun kegagalan dalam karir/usaha, pernikahan dari rencana yang diharapkan dapat mengalami tekanan dan depresi yang memicu timbulnya krisis yang serius dalam hidup. Periode krisis pada wanita semakin meningkat pada usia 37 keatas seperti perubahan fisik/penampilan, menopse, saat anak-anak tumbuh dewasa dan melanjutkan kehidupannya sendiri- sendiri, suami sibuk dengan karir dan usahanya, kesepian dan cemas. Lihat &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.blogger.com/di%20https://id.wikihow.com/Mengidentifikasi-Krisis-Paruh-Baya-pada-Pria&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;identifikasi paruh baya menyoal pasangan.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Pada periode ini banyak kemungkinan yang terjadi, seperti kegagalan untuk mengembangkan hubungan pernikahan sehingga mengakibatkan perceraian, karena faktor kehilangan karir, menurunya usaha mandiri alhasil adanya ketidakpastian dalam hal keuangan. Tuntutan keluarga terus meningkat yang seperti ini memicu akan terjadinya frustasi karena banyak hal yang belum dituju.Dampak krisis paruh baya dalam keluarga sangat berpengaruh. Peningkatan emosional dan frustasi yang muncul menyebabkan terjadinya konflik, kebencian dan rasa sakit untuk keluarga.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Pada periode ini juga merupakan salah satu dimana individu mendapat tanggungjawab baru itu perlu untuk menilai kembali struktur kehidupan sebelumnya dengan tujuan memperbaiki kembali.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Sangatlah penting untuk mengatur diri dan mengembalikan keseimbangan untuk bertahan dalam keadaan di situasi krisis. Meskipun membutuhkan waktu, beberapa individu dapat mengatasi rasa sakit dan ketidaknyamanan dengan lebih mudah daripada yang lain, namun upaya kemampuan mengatasi krisis tetap harus dilakukan untuk perkembangan. Dukungan sosial seperti anggota keluarga, teman sebaya, kerabat, sangat membantu untuk menghadapi situasi krisis. Kemampuan mengatasi krisis dapat menentukan apakah perkembangan masa depannya akan positif atau negatif baik secara fisik maupun psikologis. Pada saat pertahanan pribadi individu tidak baik serta ada penolakan dukungan sosial, dapat mengalami gannguan secara psikologis maupun fisik,&amp;nbsp; maka dari itu sangat penting untuk memahami dan memiliki kemampuan mengatasi krisis (Khosla, 2008).&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Pada masa seperti ini dukungan sosial sangat berpengaruh untuk melewati fase krisis sehingga individu dapat merasa hidupnya menjadi bermakna. Dukungan sosial akan memberikan rasa berarti bagi individu sehingga menimbulkan rasa bahagia yang akan tersimpan menjadi energy individu untuk mengatasi krisis, kemampuan mengatasi krisis ini akan membuat individu mampu melewati krisis dengan baik sehingga individu memiliki kebermaknaan dalam hidupnya. &lt;a href=&quot;http://eprints.umm.ac.id/40010/1/NASKAH.pdf&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Lihat sumber&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Islam meyakini bahwa setiap bayi lahir dalam keadaan suci, putih bersih ruhaninya dan tanpa dosa. Nabi Muhammad mengatakan : setiap bayi dilahirkan dalam keadaan fitrah. Fitrah di sini maksudnya adalah putih bersih tanpa dosa. Jiwa yang fitrah suci, memiliki kelembutan hati(kepekaan terhadap penderitaan orang), mengenal Tuhan nya dengan benar(tidak mempersekutukan Nya), takut kepada Tuhan, mudah menerima kebenaran,cenderung kepada kebaikan, menjauhi perbuatan dosa (yang mengotori ruhaninya), dan merasa tenang hidupnya.

Kemudian sejalan dengan perjalanan umur manusia, saat bergaul dengan manusia dan masyarakat, maka manusia sedikit demi sedikit mengotori ruhaninya dengan perbuatan dosa. Nabi Muhammad berkata :

Sesungguhnya ketika seorang hamba melakukan dosa, maka akan muncul noda hitam pada hatinya. Jika dia berhenti dari perbuatan tersebut, memohon ampun pada Nya, dan bertaubat (kembali berbuat baik dan menjauhi perbuatan dosa), maka hatinya akan kembali bercahaya. Namun jika ia kembali mengulanginya, maka noda hitam itu akan bertambah dan bertambah sehingga akan menutupi hatinya. Itulah yang dimaksud dengan noda hitam yang menutupi hati yang disampaikan Allah dalam surat Muthaffifiin : ?Sekali-kali tidak, sebenarnya apa yang selalu mereka kerjakan itu telah menutupi hati mereka.? (hadits)

Akibat dari hati (ruhani) yang telah hitam tertutupi oleh dosa itu menyebabkan seorang itu menganggap biasa perbuatan dosa itu dan tidak menyesalinya. Hatinya tidak tergetar lagi ketika ia melakukan suatu dosa.

Sesungguhnya setiap orang yang melakukan dosa untuk yang pertama kali maka hatinya akan bergoncang. Fitrahnya yang masih bersih menolak perbuatan dosa itu dan merasa bersalah. Pelajaran agama yang ia terima sejak kecil akan membuatnya merasa berdosa dan merasa bersalah melanggar larangan Allah. Namun setan terus datang dan menggoda dalam hatinya dan meringan-ringankan perbuatan dosa itu sehingga dia terus-menerus melawan suara hatinya yang masih bersih itu. Kemudian dia akan terus melakukan dosa itu sampai suara hatinya yang masih fitrah menjadi mati, karena hatinya telah tertutup dan menjadi hitam, sehingga dia tidak merasa bersalah dan bersedih lagi dengan melakukan dosa itu.

Manusia pada fitrahnya adalah (cenderung kepada) kebaikan, namun setan selalu datang dan menggoda manusia untuk berbuat dosa dan pelanggaran. Hati yang telah hitam akan terjauhkan dari Allah. Orang itu akan terjauhkan dari agama dan Tuhan. 


Bagaimana membersihkan hati itu dari dosa?


Yang pertama manusia itu harus merasa menyesal dan minta ampun pada Allah. Manusia itu harus diingatkan dengan baik agar ia menyadari perbuatan salahnya, menyadari kesalahannya lalu ia mau meminta ampun pada Allah dan bertaubat (berhenti dari perbuatan dosa). Kemudian ia harus berusaha membersihkan noda-noda hitam itu dengan melakukan perbuatan-perbuatan baik dan melaksanakan peribadatan peribadatan yang disyariatkan. Maka hatinya akan dibersihkan kembali dan menjadi cemerlang kembali. Al Qur?an :

... Sesungguhnya perbuatan-perbuatan baik itu menghapuskan perbuatan-perbuatan buruk (dosa). Itulah peringatan bagi orang-orang yang selalu mengingat (Tuhan). QS. 11:114

Peribadatan dalam Islam sesungguhnya merupakan usaha untuk memelihara kebersihan hati itu, dan menjadikannya lembut (peka), juga membersihkannya dari kotoran. Maka Al Qur?an menyebut sebagai Pendusta Agama, seorang muslim yang Shalatnya tidak memberi pengaruh bagi kelembutan (kepekaan) hatinya serta tidak menjauhkannya dari dosa-dosa besar. Ibadah shalat juga harus bisa menimbulkan hati yang dipenuhi hikmah, karena terbukanya hikmah Al Qur?an yang ia baca ketika shalat sebagai hasil komunikasinya dengan Allah.

Ibadah Puasa adalah untuk membersihkan hatinya dari kotoran-kotoran dosa, dengan berpuasa menahan lapar (dosa perut : kerakusan makanan), menahan dosa mata (melihat yang dilarang, mengundang birahi), dosa mulut(bergunjing : membicarakan keburukan orang, berdusta, berbicara kasar, memaki, adu domba, fitnah), dosa telinga (mendengar semua dosa mulut dan yang dilarang), dosa anggota badan (menyakiti orang, berkelahi dan melangkah menuju tempat yang ramai dosa), dosa kemaluan (zina, hubungan seks sejenis) dan dosa hati (iri, dengki, marah, dendam, bangga diri, tidak syukur, sombong, ingin dipuja dan disanjung). Maka dikatakan ibadah puasa yang berhasil akan bisa membersihkan hati seorang muslim ke tingkat sebagaimana dilahirkan dari rahim ibunya (fitrah, suci), dengan bantuan rahmat Allah pada malam Qadar.

Ibadah zakat adalah untuk membersihkan hati dari dosa tamak terhadap harta dunia. Ibadah (hati) Syahadat adalah untuk membersihkan hati manusia dari dosa mempersekutukan Tuhan dan menjaga fitrah manusia yang Tauhid. Ibadah haji khusus adalah untuk menggali akar agama Islam. Mengikuti tauladan nabi Ibrahim yang hanif (lurus).

Dosa, menurut Islam adalah perbuatan buruk yang tidak saja akan berakibat buruk baik terhadap ruhani individu pelakunya, namun juga  secara nyata terhadap individu itu sendiri maupun terhadap masyarakat. Perbuatan dosa dilarang karena bersifat merusak dan menghancurkan. Menyebabkan pertengkaran antara manusia, mengkasarkan hati, menjauhkan manusia dari Tuhan, merusak alam dan menghancurkan masyarakat.

Di dalam Islam terdapat dosa-dosa besar dan dosa-dosa kecil. Pembagian ini disebabkan pengaruhnya dalam merusak (hati manusia dan masyarakat). Dosa yang terbesar bagi manusia adalah dosa mempersekutukan Tuhan. Setelah itu yang termasuk dosa-dosa besar adalah : membunuh, berzina, berjudi, mabuk dan narkoba (khamar), mencuri, riba (bunga pinjaman uang, rentenir), durhaka pada orang tua, liwath (hubungan homo seksual), dosa-dosa dalam 10 Perintah Tuhan (kecuali hari Sabat). Dosa-dosa kecil adalah dosa-dosa selain dosa-dosa besar. Dosa-dosa besar lebih sukar dihapusnya disamping dosa-dosa kecil. Al Qur?an :

Jika kamu menjauhi dosa-dosa besar yang dilarang kamu mengerjakannya, niscaya Kami hapus kesalahan-kesalahanmu (dosa-dosa kecil) dan Kami masukkan kamu ke tempat yang mulia (Surga). QS. 4:31

Nabi Muhammad mengatakan, kesabaran dalam menerima bencana dan ketika sakit juga bisa menghapuskan dosa-dosa kecil.

Di akhirat, menurut Islam, kotoran hati (ruhani) akibat dosa-dosa inilah yang akan dibakar di dalam siksa neraka (murka Nya). Sehingga setelah hati (ruhani) nya bersih maka manusia akan masuk ke dalam surga (ridlo Nya). Semakin hitam dan sukar dihapus kotoran hati (ruhani) maka akan semakin lama seorang itu dalam neraka. Semakin sedikit dan semakin mudah dihapus kotoran hati (ruhani) maka akan semakin sebentar seorang itu dalam neraka.

Dosa mempersekutukan Tuhan adalah dosa yang sangat gelap dan sukar dihapuskan, oleh karena itu seorang akan berada dalam neraka untuk jangka waktu yang sangat lama sehingga disebut dalam Al Qur?an sebagai kekal (menurut hitungan waktu manusia). Al Qur?an :

Sesungguhnya Allah tidak akan mengampuni dosa mempersekutukan (Tuhan), dan Dia mengampuni segala dosa selain dari dosa itu, bagi siapa yang dikehendaki Nya. Barang siapa yang mempersekutukan Allah, maka sungguh ia telah berbuat dosa yang sangat besar. QS. 4:48

Al Qur&#39;an mengatakan bahwa setiap manusia akan memasuki neraka, kecuali para nabi dan orang-orang pilihan (jumlahnya sangat sedikit). Setiap muslim akan masuk ke dalam neraka untuk dicuci dosa-dosanya sesuai kadar kekotoran ruhaninya. Namun seorang muslim masih bisa berharap ampunan Allah setelah dosa-dosanya dicuci dalam neraka, kemudian bisa masuk ke dalam surga. Karena mereka tidak mempersekutukan Allah. Namun seorang yang mempersekutukan Allah, Allah tidak akan mengampuninya dan akan mengalami siksa neraka yang sangat lama (kekal).

?Katakanlah (wahai Muhammad) : Apakah aku akan mencari Tuhan selain Allah? Padahal Dia adalah Tuhan bagi segala sesuatu. Dan tidaklah seorang membuat dosa melainkan kemudharatannya (akibat buruknya) kembali kepada dirinya sendiri. Dan seorang tidak akan memikul dosa orang lain. Kemudian kepada Tuhanmulah kamu kembali, dan akan diberitakan Nya kepadamu apa yang kamu perselisihkan.? QS. 6:164

?Dan ingatlah, ketika Tuhan mu mengeluarkan keturunan Adam dari sulbi mereka dan Allah mengambil kesaksian terhadap jiwa mereka : Bukankah Aku Tuhanmu? Mereka menjawab : Benar, bahkan kami bersaksi (fitrah Tauhid).(Yang demikian itu) agar di hari kiamat kamu tidak mengatakan : Sesungguhnya kami adalah orang-orang yang lengah (lalai) terhadap hal ini (ke-Esa-an Allah). Agar kamu tidak mengatakan : Sesungguhnya orang-orang tua kami telah mempersekutukan Tuhan sejak dahulu, sedangkan kami adalah keturunan sesudah mereka. Apakah Engkau akan membinasakan kami karena perbuatan orang-orang sesat (sebelum kami)?? QS. 7:172-173

Berikut akan saya sampaikan ayat-ayat Al Qur?an dan Hadits (perkataan nabi Muhammad) sebagai tambahan yang berhubungan dengan DOSA. Dengan demikian pembaca bisa mengambil kesimpulannya sendiri.


-------------------------------------


Demi Dzat yang jiwaku berada dalam genggaman Nya, seandainya kalian tidak pernah melakukan dosa, maka tentunya Allah akan melenyapkan kalian. Kemudian Allah akan mendatangkan suatu kaum yang melakukan dosa, lalu mereka memohon ampun kepada Allah dan Allah mengampuni mereka. (hadits)

Setiap anak cucu Adam itu pernah melakukan dosa, dan sebaik-baiknya orang yang pernah melakukan dosa adalah orang yang bertaubat. (hadits)

[taubat : menyesali perbuatan dosa, berhenti dari berbuat, memohon ampun, menjauhi perbuatan dosa dan berusaha untuk tidak mengerjakannya kembali]

Dan orang-orang yang apabila mengerjakan perbuatan keji atau menganiaya diri sendiri, mereka ingat akan Allah. Lalu memohon ampun terhadap dosa-dosa mereka. Siapa lagi yang dapat mengampuni dosa selain Allah? Mereka tidak meneruskan perbuatan kejinya itu, sedang mereka menyadarinya. QS. 3:135

Sesungguhnya seorang yang beriman itu melihat dosa-dosanya seakan-akan dia sedang berada di kaki gunung. Ia takut gunung itu jatuh menimpanya. Sedangkan seorang yang berdosa itu melihat dosa-dosanya seperti lalat yang terbang di depan hidungnya. (hadits)

Janganlah sekali-kali kalian meremehkan dosa. Karena sesungguhnya ia bisa semakin bertambah dan menumpuk pada seorang sehingga menghancurkannya. (hadits)

[demikian juga masyarakat, dapat hancur oleh dosa yang telah menyebar merata]

Semua umatku diampuni dosanya kecuali yang melakukan perbuatan maksiat secara terang-terangan. Seorang melakukan kemaksiatan (pelanggaran larangan Allah) pada malam hari. Dan Allah menutupinya. Namun kemudian pagi harinya dia bercerita kepada temannya : hai Fulan, semalam aku melakukan ini dan itu. Sebenarnya dia di malam hari telah ditutupi aibnya oleh Tuhan nya, namunpagi harinya dia sendiri yang menyingkap tabir Allah itu darinya. (hadits)

Salah seorang dari kalian mendekatkan diri (di dunia) kepada Allah, sehingga Allah memberikan naungan kasih sayang kepadanya. Allah (di akhirat) bertanya [pembicaraan rahasia] : Kemarin (di dunia) kamu melakukan ini dan itu? Ia menjawab : ya. Lalu Allah bertanya lagi : Kemarin kamu juga melakukan ini dan itu? Ia menjawab lagi : ya. Setelah mendengar pengakuan jujur itu, Allah berkata : Sesungguhnya Aku telah menutupi aibmu di dunia, maka pada hari ini Aku pun akan menutupinya (mengampuni apa yang telah dilakukan). (hadits)

Jauhilah perbuatan-perbuatan keji yang telah dilarang Allah. Barang siapa yang merasa sakit akibat perbuatan dosanya, hendaklah dia menutupinya dengan tabir Allah dan bertobatlah kepada Nya. Sesungguhnya orang yang memperlihatkan catatan perbuatan dosanya kepada kami, niscaya kami akan menegakkan kitab Allah atas perbuatan tersebut. (hadits)

Berjanji setialah (baiat) kepadaku, untuk tidak mempersekutukan Allah dengan sesuatupun, tidak mencuri, tidak berzina, tidak membunuh anak-anak kalian, tidak datang dengan membawa kebohongan yang kalian buat-buat di antara tangan dan kaki kalian, dan tidak berlaku durhaka terhadap sesuatu yang makruf (baik,dianjurkan). Barang siapa yang bersedia memenuhinya, niscaya ganjaran Allah padanya. Barang siapa melanggar perbuatan-perbuatan itu, maka dia akan dijatuhi hukuman di dunia sebagai kafarat (penghapus dosa) baginya. Barang siapa yang melanggar salah satunya lalu Allah menutupinya, maka menjadi wewenang Allah. Kalau Allah berkehendak mengampuni, maka Allah akan mengampuninya. Jika Allah berkehendak menyiksa, maka Allah akan menyiksanya. (hadits)

Bertaubatlah kamu sekalian kepada Allah hai orang-orang yang beriman, agar kamu beruntung. QS. 30:31

Allah lebih gembira atas taubat seorang ketika ia bertaubat kepada Nya, dari pada seorang yang kehilangan untanya di tengah padang sahara, unta itu membawa bekal makan dan minumannya, dengan putus asa ia tertidur di bawah sebuah pohon, ketika ia terbangun ia mendapati untanya berada di sebelahnya, kemudian segera ia memegang kendalinya dan berkata : Ya Allah, Engkau adalah hambaku dan aku adalah Tuhanmu. Ia salah ucap karena sangat gembiranya.(hadits)

+ Wahai Rasul Allah, salah seorang di antara kami telah berbuat dosa

= Itu akan dicatat

+ Namun kemudian ia memohon ampun dan bertaubat dari dosanya itu

= Dosanya diampuni dan taubatnya diterima

+ Tapi ia kembali mengulangi perbuatan dosanya

= Itu akan dicatat

+ Namun kemudian ia memohon ampun dan bertaubat dari dosanya itu

= Dosanya diampuni dan taubatnya diterima

+ Tapi dia kembali melakukan dosa

= Itu akan dicatat, dan Allah tidak akan bosan sampai kalian sendiri bosan (melakukan dosa dan bertaubat)(hadits)

Sesungguhnya orang-orang yang bertaqwa (takut kepada Tuhan nya) bila mereka ditimpa kebimbangan dari syetan, mereka ingat kepada Allah. Maka ketika itu juga mereka melihat kesalahan-kesalahan mereka. Teman-teman mereka (orang kafir dan durhaka) membantu syetan-syetan dalam menyesatkan mereka, dan mereka tidak henti-hentinya (menyesatkan). QS. 7:201-202

Maka sesungguhnya Dia Maha Pengampun bagi orang yang bertaubat. QS 17:25

Taubat nabi Adam :

Ya Tuhan kami, kami telah menganiaya diri kami sendiri. Jika Engkau tidak mengampuni kami dan tidak mengasihani kami, niscaya pasti kami termasuk orang-orang yang merugi. QS 7:23

Wahai Aisyah, jika kamu melakukan dosa sekecil apapun, maka mohonlah ampun kepada Allah. Karena sesungguhnya bertaubat dari dosa hanyalah dengan menyesali dan memohon ampunan Nya. (hadits)

Sesungguhnya Allah kagum pada seorang yang berdoa : Tidak ada Tuhan selain Engkau, sesungguhnya aku telah berbuat aniaya (dosa) kepada diriku sendiri, maka ampunilah dosa-dosaku. Karena sesungguhnya tidak ada yang bisa mengampuni dosa-dosaku selain Engkau. Allah berkata : Hamba Ku ini mengerti bahwa dia memiliki Tuhan yang dapat mengampuni dan dapat menghukumnya. (hadits)

Takutlah kepada Allah dimanapun kamu berada (=bertaqwa). Ikutilah perbuatan buruk dengan perbuatan baik, niscaya dia akan bisa menghapus dosanya (noda hitamnya). Bergaullah dengan manusia dengan akhlaq (perilaku) yang baik. (hadits)

Bagaimana pendapat kalian apabila ada sebuah sungai mengalir di depan rumah kalian, dan kalian mandi di sungai itu sebanyak lima kali sehari, apakah masih ada kotoran padanya? Para sahabat nabi menjawab : Tidak sedikitpun tersisa kotoran. Kemudian nabi berkata : itulah perumpamaan shalat lima waktu. Allah menghapuskan dosa-dosa kesalahan dengannya. (hadits)

Seorang bersumpah : Demi Allah, Allah tidak akan mengampuni dosa si Fulan.

Allah berkata : Siapa itu yang berani bersumpah atas nama Ku bahwa Aku tidak akan mengampuni dosa si Fulan? Sesungguhnya Aku telah mengampuni dosa si Fulan. Maka hapuslah amalanmu karena ucapanmu itu (bersumpah tadi). (hadits)

Neraka dihiasi oleh hal-hal yang menyenangkan (syahwat), sedangkan Syurga dihiasi oleh hal-hal yang tidak menyenangkan. (hadits)


Wallahu a&#39;lam (hanya Allah yang tahu pasti)

Semoga kita diberikan kebijaksanaan..

&lt;span class=&quot;CommentLarge&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;Seni merangkai bunga dengan gaya khas Indonesia
 perlu terus dikembangkan. Selain bisa menciptakan lapangan kerja bagi 
perangkai bunga, seni merangkai bunga juga bisa menjadi daya tarik 
wisata.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Laretna T Adhisakti, selaku anggota tim artistik perhimpunan penggemar &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: windowtext;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;rangkaian bunga&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt; Mayasari Indonesia
 mengatakan, Jepang memiliki seni merangkai bunga atau ikebana yang 
dikenal seluruh dunia. &quot;Di negara tersebut, ikebana berkembang 
sedemikian rupa sehingga memiliki nilai ekonomi yang besar. Selain hasil
 rangkaian bunganya yang bisa dijual, d i sana juga bermunculan tempat-tempat kursus ikebana yang sangat diminati wisatawan asing,&quot;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Melihat potensi yang ada di Indonesia, lanjut dia, seni merangkai bunga gaya Indonesia mestinya juga bisa dikembangkan. Sebab selain kaya dengan aneka jenis flora, Indonesia juga memiliki akar tradisi merangkai bunga yang antara lain terlihat dari &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: windowtext;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;rangkaian bunga&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt; dan buah yang kerap dipakai dalam upacara adat di Jawa dan Bali.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Menurut Laretna, di dunia setidaknya ada dua gaya merangkai &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: windowtext;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;bunga&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt; yang dominan yakni gaya barat (Eropa) dan gaya Jepang. Dalam gaya barat, bunga dirangkai memenuhi semua sudut ruang vas sehingga hasilnya bisa dilihat dari berbagai arah. Sedangkan dalam gaya
 Jepang, bunga dirangkai dengan mempertimbangkan sudut tertentu. &quot;Dari 
dua gaya tersebut, kami dari Mayasari Indonesia kemudian berupaya 
mencari rangkaian bunga gaya Indonesia,&quot; ujarnya.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhimpunan penggemar rangkaian &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: windowtext;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;bunga&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;
 Mayasari Indonesia yang berdiri sejak 1967 akhirnya menemukan gaya 
tersebut dengan berangkat dari pola rangkaian kembar mayang di Jawa 
serta cane di Bali. Baik kembar mayang maupun cane dibuat dari rangkaian
 janur yang dihiasi dengan aneka bunga dan buah. Pola kembar mayang dan 
cane tersebut terus dikembangkan hingga menghasilkan rangkaian bunga 
Mayasari Indonesia.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hasil
 rangkaian bunga yang tidak pernah lepas dari janur ini pernah 
dipamerkan di Kerajaan Monaco, Perancis, Filiphina, Jepang hingga 
Amerika Serikat. Agar lebih memasyarakat, rangkaian bunga tersebut akan 
dipamerkan di Hotel Mustokoweni Yogyakarta.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;CommentLarge&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Laretna
 menambahkan, sampai saat ini seni membuat kembar mayang dan cane masih 
eksis. Namun seni tersebut perlu terus dikembangkan bersama dengan 
pengembangan rangakaian bunga gaya Indonesia. &quot;Jika terus dikembangkan, 
seni merangkai bunga semacam ini akan bisa menjadi daya tarik wisata 
seperti di Jepang,&quot; tuturnya.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Book Antiqua&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Sebenarnya Indonesia sangatlah kaya akan karya seni dan budaya yang 
tidak dimiliki oleh negara lain, dari tiap daerah mempunyai seni dan budaya masing - masing, tapi sayang akhir-akhir ini banyak 
karya seni dan budaya indonesia yang di klaim oleh negara lain, itu 
karena warga indonesia sendiri yang tidak mau menghargai karya seni dan 
budayanya, bahkan mereka cenderung menyukai produk negara lain atau luar
 negeri, padahal di luar sana banyak  negara yang iri dengan kekayaan 
seni dan budaya indonesia sampai-sampai mereka berani mengklaim kesenian
 dan kebudayaan negara kita.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Seni tradisional&lt;/b&gt; adalah unsur kesenian
 yang menjadi bagian hidup masyarakat dalam suatu kaum/puak/suku/bangsa 
tertentu. Tradisional adalah aksi dan tingkah laku yang keluar alamiah 
karena kebutuhan dari nenek moyang yang terdahulu. Tradisi adalah bagian
 dari tradisional namun bisa musnah karena ketidamauan masyarakat untuk 
mengikuti tradisi tersebut.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Berikut kami ambil 5 contoh kesenian tradisional Indonesia :&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
1. Kesenian Wayang&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSyomRK5oMJBY6MpNzoIO4yXb-7LpFfQwCNuXF3XQIU_35EPB-D-p0mSj6oFQA1uLgusXcvpmZkKfudoATHDjgw38s8zho6-5e4jiVHxYsUM5LzwAjwTx9p8Fen5aax0Yp4sZeFioTyiN3/s1600/wyg.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;200&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSyomRK5oMJBY6MpNzoIO4yXb-7LpFfQwCNuXF3XQIU_35EPB-D-p0mSj6oFQA1uLgusXcvpmZkKfudoATHDjgw38s8zho6-5e4jiVHxYsUM5LzwAjwTx9p8Fen5aax0Yp4sZeFioTyiN3/s200/wyg.jpg&quot; width=&quot;182&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Berasal dari kata wayangan, yaitu sumber ilham dalam menggambar wujud tokoh dan cerita.&lt;br /&gt;
Wayang merupakan suatu karya bangsa yang telah dikenal sejak1500 SM 
dan dalam perkembanganya bersentuhan dengan unsur lain dan terus 
berkembang sehingga menciptakan wujud dan isinya seperti saat ini.&lt;br /&gt;
Wayang berfungsi sebagai media penerangan, pendidikan, dan komunikasi masa,&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;georgia&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;wayang
 dalam bentuknya yang asli timbul sebelum kebudayaan hindu masuk masuk 
di indonesia dan mulai berkembang pada masa hindu jawa.&lt;br /&gt;  pertunjukan
 kesenian wayangmerupakan sisa- sisa upacara keagamaan orang jawa yaitu 
sisa-sisa dari kepercayaan animisme dan dinamisme.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
2. Kesenian Batik&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQUGkHXPo3zA9FW5wv_DaysiplXq1LsBhcXeKLahYqNeGS9iQcbhqOOSa0pRac4xQZ4KErLe6hKqKGB-DO15nBu5yc3pcexkq4ZiZRy5kRskqpWyl1MEP2s5V39i2EZwSHPm2sIXuFjxk9/s1600/batik.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQUGkHXPo3zA9FW5wv_DaysiplXq1LsBhcXeKLahYqNeGS9iQcbhqOOSa0pRac4xQZ4KErLe6hKqKGB-DO15nBu5yc3pcexkq4ZiZRy5kRskqpWyl1MEP2s5V39i2EZwSHPm2sIXuFjxk9/s1600/batik.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Batik adalah gambar atau lukisan yang di buwat pada kain dengan bahan 
lilin dan pewarna, yang menggunakan alat canting atau kuas serta teknik 
tutup celup. Batik dapat berupa gambar pola ragam hias atau lukisan yang
 ekspresif.&lt;br /&gt;
sejarah batik indonesia berkaitan dengan perkembangan  kerajaan majapahit dan kerajaan sesudahnya.&lt;br /&gt;
batik
 merupakan karya seni budaya yang di kagumi dunia,di antara ragam 
tradisional yang di hasilkan dengan teknologi celup canting. Batik 
adalah kerajinan yang memiliki nilai seni tinggi dan telah menjadi 
bagian dari budaya Indonesia (khususnya Jawa) sejak lama. Ragam corak 
dan warna Batik dipengaruhi oleh berbagai pengaruh asing. Awalnya, batik
 memiliki ragam corak dan warna yang terbatas,Namun batik pesisir 
menyerap berbagai pengaruh luar, seperti para pedagang asing dan juga 
pada akhirnya, para penjajah.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
3. Kesenian Reog&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGNUKNUa2FSZFiaXlaf2cAGzlztJgQK8Rql8P1cgvozzMNFPoXWF-OP73W9fCVxS0O5l7MOVi4aUVQ3kbsv8vG_VrO3DSnYKcRG0AlMHE4kypTHOdK7x1_KU5iIMeBJz3Tj6PC2UtX8cJW/s1600/reog.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGNUKNUa2FSZFiaXlaf2cAGzlztJgQK8Rql8P1cgvozzMNFPoXWF-OP73W9fCVxS0O5l7MOVi4aUVQ3kbsv8vG_VrO3DSnYKcRG0AlMHE4kypTHOdK7x1_KU5iIMeBJz3Tj6PC2UtX8cJW/s1600/reog.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Adalah salah satu kesenian budaya yang berasal dari ponorogo

sangat kental dengan hal-hal yang berbau mistik dan ilmu kebatinan yang 
kuat, reog terdiri dari topeng kepala harimau yang besar dan burung

biasanya di pentaskan dalam beberapa acara seperti pernikahan khitanan, 
hari-hari besar nasional dan lain- lain.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
4. Kesenian Angklung&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbsF9jrXS7266lwI8SPYoV9MC9fhB638exlvKZ52atW6ky0rPagzfXhXTgdRxLTnOOKcPuXkPEWVO1R-mlycyfayIUvj663wsIjabkR2riKFUUQJ6cCTOak2UwS4hU4rL6TktRGo8HcicB/s1600/angklung.jpeg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbsF9jrXS7266lwI8SPYoV9MC9fhB638exlvKZ52atW6ky0rPagzfXhXTgdRxLTnOOKcPuXkPEWVO1R-mlycyfayIUvj663wsIjabkR2riKFUUQJ6cCTOak2UwS4hU4rL6TktRGo8HcicB/s1600/angklung.jpeg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Adalah alat musik tradisional dari daerah jawa barat, alat musik ini 
terbuat dari bambu, dapat di mainkan sendiri juga dapat di padukan 
dengan alat musik lain,namun umumnya di mainkan secara massal.&lt;br /&gt;
instrumen angklung terdiri atas : angklung melody, angklung pengiring, 
dan angklung bass. musik angklung digunakan untuk sarana ronda malam, 
pesta panen, dan pesta perkawinan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dalam perkembangannya, angklung berkembang dan menyebar ke seantero Jawa, lalu ke Kalimantan
 dan Sumatera. Pada 1908 tercatat sebuah misi kebudayaan dari Indonesia 
ke thailand, antara lain ditandai penyerahan angklung, lalu permainan 
musik bambu ini pun sempat menyebar di sana.Bahkan sejak 1966, udjo 
ngalagena tokoh angklung yang mengembangkan teknik permainan berdasarkan
 laras-laras pelog, salendro, dan madenda mulai mengajarkan bagaimana 
bermain angklung kepada banyak orang dari berbagai komunitas.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
5. Kesenian Musik Lesung&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRArOXnyw2ctIS2NQfiI2L9sJsPSZajgotjCRP8CLcI6L_pDKuvpoTS_tuw_HChg7__L59FewGrnOa0YX2XN5eq5vKsi5875Fv2Cmp-QPkcPEro7IdMadg695-Nt7xvD60HFH9dxi_XuW5/s1600/lesung.jpeg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRArOXnyw2ctIS2NQfiI2L9sJsPSZajgotjCRP8CLcI6L_pDKuvpoTS_tuw_HChg7__L59FewGrnOa0YX2XN5eq5vKsi5875Fv2Cmp-QPkcPEro7IdMadg695-Nt7xvD60HFH9dxi_XuW5/s1600/lesung.jpeg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Berasal dari blora jawa tengah, lesung adalah alat untuk menumbuk padi. 
saat para ibu-ibu menumbuk padi mereka juga sambil berdendang 
(bernyanyi), lagu lagu yang di lantunkan biasanya lagu lagu jawa.&lt;br /&gt;
instrumen lesung terdiri dari : alu lantan dengan lesung.&lt;br /&gt;
Lesung
 sendiri sebenarnya hanya wadah cekung, biasanya dari kayu besar yang 
dibuang bagian dalamnya.Gabah yang akan diolah ditaruh di dalam lubang 
tersebut.Padi atau gabah lalu ditumbuk dengan alu, tongkat tebal dari 
kayu, berulang-ulang sampai beras terpisah dari sekam.&lt;br /&gt;
Setelah zaman 
kian maju, membersihkan padi dengan lesung ditinggalkan, karena di nilai
 kurang dapat memperoleh hasil yang banyak.Kini lesung tetap di 
lestarikan sebagai kesenian tradisional.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Sesungguhnya banyak sekali kesenian tradisional indonesia yang perlu diangkat dan dilestarikan agar budaya bangsa tetap terjaga dan tidak punah karena ketidak tahuan dan keengganan untuk mengenal dan melestarikannya.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;

Menurut Dr. Rinrin R. Kaltarina, Psi.,M.Si. Ada Empat Macam latah antara lain :&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&amp;nbsp;1. Ekolalia: mengulangi perkataan orang lain&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Ekopraksia: meniru gerakan orang lain&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Koprolalia: mengucapkan kata-kata yang dianggap tabu/kotor&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
4. Automatic obedience: melaksanakan 
perintah secara spontan pada saat   terkejut, misalnya; ketika penderita
 dikejutkan dengan seruan perintah   seperti ”sujud” atau ”peluk”, ia 
akan segera melakukan perintah itu.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Ada  beberapa teori yang menyebabkan 
timbulnya gangguan latah, yaitu :&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Teori Pemberontakan. Dalam kondisi 
latah, seseorang bisa mengucapkan   hal-hal yang dilarang tanpa merasa 
bersalah. Gejala ini semacam gangguan   tingkah laku. Lebih kearah 
obsesif karena ada dorongan yang tidak   terkendali untuk mengatakan 
atau melakukan sesuatu.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Teori Kecemasan. Gejala latah muncul karena yang bersangkutan memiliki  
 kecemasan terhadap sesuatu tanpa ia sadari. Rata-rata, dalam kehidupan 
  pengidap latah selalu terdapat tokoh otoriter, entah ayah atau ibu. 
Bisa   jadi, latah merupakan jalan pemberontakannya terhadap dominan 
orang  tua  yang sangat menekan. Walau demikian tokoh otoriter tidak 
harus  berasal  dari lingkungan keluarga.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Teori Pengondisian. Inilah yang disebut latah gara-gara ketularan.   
Seseorang mengidap latah karena dikondisikan oleh lingkungannya,   
misalnya gara-gara latah, seseorang merasa diperhatikan dan diperhatikan
   oleh lingkungan. Dengan begitu, latah juga merupakan upaya mencari   
perhatian. Latah semacam ini disebut ”latah gaul”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Syarat munculnya latah adalah adanya 
keterkejutan. Untuk mengurangi dan   menyembuhkan latah, ia harus bisa 
menemukan ketenangan hidup. Misalnya,   keluar dari rumah kalau orang 
tuanya kerap melakukan tekanan atau   berganti bidang pekerjaan jika 
pekerjaannya itu membuatnya stres.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Untuk menyembuhkan si latah, 
lingkungan memang harus berempati. Ada   penderita latah yang sembuh 
sendiri setelah berkeluarga dan hidup   tenang. Selebihnya, penderita 
dianjurkan melakukan latihan relaksasi,   meditasi, dan konsentrasi 
secara rutin. Kegiatan ini akan membantu   penderita menuju kesembuhan. 
Dan, sering-seringlah melakukan aktivitas   menyenangkan yang tidak 
membuat stres (Dr. Rinrin R. Khaltarina, Psi.,   M.Si.).&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Terapi puasa cukup populer di Eropa 
maupun AS. Kabar gembira lain, hasil   riset terakhir membuktikan puasa 
yang dijalankan secata tepat dan   benar, bisa berfungsi sebagai terapi 
bagi penderita latah. Ini bersumber   kepada fakta bakti bahwa pausa 
dapat membuat seseorang lebih mampu   menguasai dan mengendalikan diri.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZm8_PpT3RNBnJCdlHPLvFXnR2jLTFWYknEkQ46SAhdmkObKIp10xqiZd3CLSuasF_ojRfGHw3NqY-1X9DTQv1JKDYe2sgXq4L7wMJth-dFx4z8zeH_iq3zP1y0JIDAat5vLV35KQf-Zxh/s1600/termenung.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZm8_PpT3RNBnJCdlHPLvFXnR2jLTFWYknEkQ46SAhdmkObKIp10xqiZd3CLSuasF_ojRfGHw3NqY-1X9DTQv1JKDYe2sgXq4L7wMJth-dFx4z8zeH_iq3zP1y0JIDAat5vLV35KQf-Zxh/s400/termenung.jpg&quot; width=&quot;264&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Secara umum mengapa wanita sulit menemukan pilihan hati sebagai 
pasangan pria yang tepat untuk menjadi pendamping hidupnya adalah karena
 belum menemukan kecocokan atau karena kesalahan mereka sendiri. 
Kesalahan saat menjadi wanita single seringkali tidak disadari karena 
sebagain besar wanita yang termasuk golongan ini pada dasarnya merasa 
sudah membuang banyak waktu, tenaga, dan uang untuk menemukan pria yang 
tepat untuknya.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Berikut ini adalah 10 kesalahan wanita single saat mencari pria yang tepat:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Terlalu mudah jatuh cinta&lt;br /&gt;
Wanita
 yang terlalu cepat jatuh cinta pada pria yang belum terlalu dikenalnya 
cenderung memiliki hubungan yang kurang mulus dan tidak bertahan lama. 
Itu disebabkan karena ia tidak menilai si pria terlebih dahulu, pantas 
atau tidak untuk bersama dirinya. Selain itu karena sudah terlalu putus 
asa tidak menemukan pria yang tepat, wanita sering terlalu mudah 
ditaklukkan yang pada akhirnya membuat pria kurang merespek dirinya. Ia 
menjadi berada di dalam posisi yang lemah, mudah untuk diintimidasi dan 
diancam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Terlalu pilih-pilih&lt;br /&gt;
Seperti saat sedang memilih 
baju di mall, kamu tampak kesulitan memilih baju yang kamu suka. Kamu 
mendatangi suatu gerai lalu menemukan baju yang bagus, tetapi kamu lebih
 memilih untuk mendatangi gerai lain karena berpikir akan menemukan baju
 yang lebih bagus. Pada akhirnya kamu sudah membuang banyak waktumu 
tetapi tetap belum bisa memutuskan baju mana yang akan kamu beli. Begitu
 juga saat kamu memilih seorang pria, kamu menemukan seorang pria yang 
membuatmu nyaman, tetapi kamu lebih memilih untuk menunggu karena 
berpikir akan ada pria yang lebih baik yang mendatangimu. Dan hasil 
akhirnya kamu malah tidak mendapatkan siapa pun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Bersikap cuek&lt;br /&gt;
Kamu
 tertarik pada seorang pria yang melakukan pendekatan terhadapmu, tetapi
 kamu tidak memberikan sinyal bahwa kamu tertarik. Biasanya hal itu 
membuat pria mundur secara perlahan karena takut mengganggumu atau takut
 mendapatkan reaksi buruk darimu.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Tidak butuh pria&lt;br /&gt;
Kamu 
mungkin pernah mengalami pengalaman buruk bersama pria dan itu membuatmu
 berkata, “aku tidak membutuhkan pria!”. Tentu saja jika kamu tidak bisa
 menganggap setiap pria itu unik, maka kamu akan menjadi wanita single 
seumur hidupmu. Memang benar bahwa kebahagiaanmu tidak tergantung pada 
orang lain, namun jika kamu ingin memiliki pendamping hidup, kamu harus 
mulai mengubah pola pikirmu.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Tidak peduli pada penampilan&lt;br /&gt;
Bagi
 pria, penampilan seorang wanita merupakan penilaian yang cukup penting.
 Berpakaian buruk saat menghadiri suatu pesta atau hang out dengan 
teman, rambut yang tidak teratur, tubuh yang terlalu gemuk atau kurus 
tentu akan memberi impresi buruk pada pria. Jangan selalu berkata 
“jangan menilai buku dari cover-nya saja” sebagai sebuah alasan karena 
cover buku tetaplah faktor penting untuk membantu penjualan buku 
tersebut.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Sering berkata buruk tentang pria&lt;br /&gt;
Di era media 
sosial seperti Facebook atau Twitter, seringkali banyak wanita yang 
menulis kata-kata kasar tentang pria. Mereka tidak menyadari bahwa media
 sosial dilihat oleh banyak orang. Kebiasaan seperti itu akan menjadi 
bumerang bagi diri mereka sendiri karena bisa membuat pria menjauh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7. Menetapkan standar yang terlalu tinggi&lt;br /&gt;
Sah-sah
 saja menetapkan kriteria pria yang tepat bagimu, tetapi jika kriteria 
yang kamu tetapkan terlalu tinggi seperti pria terkenal, pria yang 
memiliki jabatan tinggi, pria yang kaya raya padahal kamu sendiri 
hanyalah wanita biasa saja maka kamu akan kesulitan untuk menemukan pria
 yang memenuhi kriteria tersebut.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8. Berkata buruk tentang mantan&lt;br /&gt;
Kamu
 selalu mengungkit-ungkit hal-hal buruk tentang mantanmu. Itu akan 
membuat pria menganggapmu belum dewasa, belum bisa melupakan hubungan 
yang dahulu dan belum siap untuk membina hubungan baru.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9. Bergaul dengan teman wanita terus menerus&lt;br /&gt;
Jika
 kamu hanya hang-out dengan teman wanitamu dan tidak pernah menghabiskan
 waktumu dengan pria, maka tentu saja kamu akan kesulitan untuk 
mendapatkan pasangan hidup. Kamu harus memberikan kesempatan pada pria 
untuk mengenalmu lebih dekat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
10. Belum siap untuk menjalin kasih&lt;br /&gt;
Kamu
 mencari seorang pria sebagai pendamping hidup tetapi kamu sendiri masih
 terlalu sibuk dengan pekerjaan atau masih mengalami masalah dengan masa
 lalumu. Ketika kamu sudah menyatakan ingin mencari seorang kekasih, 
maka kamu harus menyediakan waktu dan membuka hatimu untuk mengenal dia. &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;RSS&lt;/b&gt; adalah sebuah file 
berformat XML untuk sindikasi yang telah digunakan (diantaranya dan 
kebanyakan) situs web berita dan weblog. Singkatan ini biasanya mengarah
 ke beberapa. Teknologi yang dibangun dengan &lt;b&gt;RSS&lt;/b&gt; mengijinkan kita untuk berlangganan kepada situs web yang menyediakan umpan web&lt;b&gt; (&lt;i&gt;feed&lt;/i&gt;)
 RSS&lt;/b&gt;, biasanya situs web yang isinya selalu diganti secara reguler. 
Untuk memanfaatkan teknologi ini kita membutuhkan layanan pengumpul. 
Pengumpul bisa dibayangkan sebagai kotak surat pribadi. Kita kemudian 
dapat mendaftar ke situs yang ingin kita tahu perubahannya. Namun, 
berbeda dengan langganan koran atau majalah, untuk berlangganan RSS 
tidak diperlukan biaya, gratis. Tapi, kita biasanya hanya mendapatkan 
satu baris atau sebuah pengantar dari isi situs berikut alamat terkait 
untuk membaca isi lengkap artikelnya. (&lt;a href=&quot;http://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;wikipedia.org&lt;/a&gt;).

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
Getting a sports car is an investment since it involves a lot of money. If the person has enough money to buy one, then there are other things that a person can think about before driving it off the dealer’s lot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;•&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Sports cars usually have only two-seats. If you want to have more than one passenger then you must choose another style of car. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;•&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Cars come with different transmissions that can be from 5 to 6 speed or automatic. If you do not mind stepping the pedal then a stick shift will do just fine, however if you find this to be inconvenient especially in traffic, then choose a car with an automatic transmission.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;•&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Sports cars are built for speed and not comfort. If you decide to add a little comfort when driving the vehicle with friends, then the location of engine is another deciding factor before buying.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;•&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; A sports car is an expensive one that is two or three times more expensive than a regular car. If there is the possibility that you might lose interest in a sports car, then it is best to purchase a different style of vehicle available in the market – one that will retain it’s resale value so that you are not spending your money for just a ‘new toy’.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;•&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Since there are many brands of sports cars that are made locally and/or imported, it is best to test drive a vehicle to check how much horse power the car will have, or you desire, for the value before choosing that particular sports car...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;•&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Doing some research will help you get the best deal possible.&amp;nbsp; You can do this by surfing the internet or&amp;nbsp; going to a dealership for brochures. Auto magazines can also provide useful information to assess a vehicle’s performance, technical specifications and reliability.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;•&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has data on crash tests for certain vehicles. You can check with this office to ascertain the reliability of the car you are considering.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The sports car is truly one toy that is for the ‘big boys’. Finding one will take some time but it will all pay off when you are finally driving it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

Cars, in general, possess both form and function.&amp;nbsp; The designers did not compromise aesthetics with performance. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, there is something about sports cars that make them stand out when it comes to beauty. And we are not talking about external features only. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is more to physical features like, sleekness of the car, that determine its beauty. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are some of the characteristics that endear sports cars to car enthusiasts. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Sports cars have attitude at first glance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sports cars speak the attitude that they possess. They are not like mere cars whose presence can be ignored. They captivate the eyes of those who see them. They imply that thrill and enjoyment van be expected when their hands are those that control the wheel. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sports cars stand above other cars, that are seen very day, primarily because&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; the designs imply what they are capable of doing. A sleek look really matches a car with sleek activities. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Sports cars possess greater power.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Their power comes from their more powerful engines and has other specifications than other the cars have. A sports car can do more than ordinary tasks because of the features that only they possess.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Sports cars are made for driving pleasure. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ordinary cars make driving monotonous and boring, while on the other hand, sports cars primarily aim to give the drivers a &quot;high&quot; feeling of speed and control. Only sports cars can provide that need for drivers who seek adventure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sports cars bring the thrill back to driving. They express what other cars can not.&amp;nbsp; Sports cars are not designed just for practicality, but for pleasure too. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Sports cars are made for drivers who enjoy their ‘wild side’. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Drivers do have the need to express this ‘wild side’. Sports cars make any road a venue to satisfy those needs.&amp;nbsp; Only sports cars can match the “wildness&quot; that drivers innately have. For that reason, sports cars perfectly compliment the child in every driver.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Sports cars have evolved and improved through the years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Drivers appreciate the improvements that have been made to sports cars. You could say that sports car technology has infinite possibilities. The stereotypes of sports cars have long been debunked. Those limits have been crossed. The only thing that car enthusiasts can do is to watch as these improvements unfold before their very eyes. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Sports cars make their owners feel good about themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sports cars are lifeless. They cannot feel proud because they are beautiful, but their owners take pride in having them. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With all these things said about the intrinsic and extrinsic beauty that sports cars possess, only a person who does not appreciate their beauty and/or speed will not opt to get one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmVjmLICBsKfZSoIMMa9hRtwiEV0IeBd831f9zLGMOu4I0dSatIFsPM5YNfzFzeeMQOOuMBLNQDDiheq9rVGrSTWhCMwdUzPxeYF5TGYVro1OR_NvuhfxUn456G0vNLm8XQL-KAkLWbmMm/s1600/Budgeting-For-Emergency-Funds.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;200&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmVjmLICBsKfZSoIMMa9hRtwiEV0IeBd831f9zLGMOu4I0dSatIFsPM5YNfzFzeeMQOOuMBLNQDDiheq9rVGrSTWhCMwdUzPxeYF5TGYVro1OR_NvuhfxUn456G0vNLm8XQL-KAkLWbmMm/s200/Budgeting-For-Emergency-Funds.jpg&quot; width=&quot;197&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Emergency funds are considered to be a necessity as far as financial security is concerned, since it can provide one with financial resources that one can resort to and depend on when an emergency arises such that when one is sick and have the burden of paying huge medical bills, or unexpected home or major car repair. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When one has no emergency fund, one can be obliged to acquire debt on your credit card that might take several years to repay with interest that would later cost so much more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However by putting an extra thirty to fifty dollars every month in an individual “emergency savings account” one can be secured with what emergency the future may bring. In doing this, it is recommended that one regards the emergency fund as an additional bill, to be punctually paid each month.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, one can and should budget and allocate the extra money for emergency fund, as this is very significant when one refers to his “financial future”. Here, the goal is to create savings from budgeting your income; the emergency savings should ideally be equal to at least three months your living expenditures. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What&#39;s important is that you should steadily put a certain amount of money aside, and only use it for real emergencies. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not like an investment, the success of one’s long-term savings funds does not really count on the amount of return or interests but on placing a fixed amount of money away constantly and steadily so to have immediate access to it at all times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In spite of one’s financial status, the initial step in the process of constructing an emergency fund is by knowing where your money is presently being consumed or spent. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When one recognizes and determines where one’s earnings are spent, then it will be easy for one to choose and make a decision where to trim down expenses. In other words, budget.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Budgeting is putting or setting aside money for anticipated and unanticipated future use.&amp;nbsp; It is here that one sets up a goal so as to save.&amp;nbsp; So set an emergency fund as your goal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Checking, savings, money market accounts and “certificates of deposits”, are great places to keep one’s cash that might be needed on quick notice. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The amount saved from budgeting can either go to your savings goal, emergency fund or both.&amp;nbsp; One could utilize the money saved from budgeting financial expenses by saving half of it to your savings account and half of it for emergencies. This way, you achieve your goals in savings and at the same time put in funds for emergency use.&amp;nbsp; It’s your choice.&lt;br /&gt;

Budgeting your monthly expenses in order to get the greatest return on your income (and perhaps, even put aside some for saving!) doesn’t have to be extremely hard. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Various budgeting programs are available for use. Money management programs provide you with a usual package that allows you to enter your cash inflows and outflows, categorizes your expenditures, and at times, presents to you analysis of your spending behavior. Through these programs you can also input the various payments you have to make monthly, and subsequently track if you’ve paid your dues on time. Moreover, some programs also offer you a tax form draft that will help you make sure you’re not missing out on any dues or any deductibles, for that matter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another budgeting tool that you can utilize are coupons. Various stores and magazines contain coupons that you can use to get discounts on various products. Should there be a need to purchase a particular product for which you have a coupon for, you will end up saving a fraction of what you might have had to spend on a regular purchase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lists—whether on a piece of paper, on your cellular phone, or on your personal digital assistant (PDA) will help you keep focused on what you have to buy, and in effect, keep track of the purchases you make. A classic example is your regular grocery trip. Prior to making the trip, plan out the week’s entire menu and identify what food items and materials you need to purchase that are unavailable in your pantry. Then, make a list of other household items that you’ve run out of (or are eventually going to run out of before you can make the next trip to the grocery). Armed with these lists, you can go to the grocery and know exactly where to go and what you’re going to buy. Without these lists, you will walk idly along aisles, and will likely pick up various food items that you won’t likely need in the immediate future, or already have at home. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A filing system is perhaps one of the best budgeting tools you can have in your home. With simple, labeled file folders, you can put together your bills, your receipts, and whatever bank documents are issued to you when you save or pay. By putting together your bills, your credit card receipts, and the like, you are able to keep track of how much you owe and when your payments are due.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Effective budgeting tools are those that best address your needs as a consumer. Create your own budgeting tool or find a program to do it for you—just make sure it suits your lifestyle. &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvs_9KUeFbmVSnQjkPjXJj8e3L6eE6N4P0BOcpNpwZHY5L9XRBvFbSu9icatuN2EfSNccyT3KDivrwggkpduayMDiZb7xHWnjU0VgRWk8DICMGVzTQIY7u5KR7rR5faBrqvvC8anesAe7i/s1600/money-plan.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvs_9KUeFbmVSnQjkPjXJj8e3L6eE6N4P0BOcpNpwZHY5L9XRBvFbSu9icatuN2EfSNccyT3KDivrwggkpduayMDiZb7xHWnjU0VgRWk8DICMGVzTQIY7u5KR7rR5faBrqvvC8anesAe7i/s1600/money-plan.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
There’s nothing more we want than to be able to efficiently manage our money. After all, the money that we want to manage is money that is oftentimes, hard earned. This is where a budget comes in. A budget executed properly, should help you see where your money is going, get more utility out of every buck, and help you save some extra for future use. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first smart secret to a budget is to set a goal. What do you want to achieve? Do you want to correctly appropriate your income into bills payments? Do you want to put an amount aside for a big purchase or a huge investment? By having a goal, you will be able to shape your budget to best serve your interests. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Secondly, you would want to take note of where your money usually goes. This includes bills, major but regular purchases (like grocery costs, healthcare costs, and the like), and everyday miscellaneous purchases. Only when you list down where you know your money usually goes will you be able to identify which expenses you can do without. Once you’ve identified these regular expenditures, take into consideration what you can cut back on. How much do you spend on your daily caffeine fix in the morning? How much do you spend on newspaper deliveries to your front door? The measly $2 or $5 of these small purchases cumulatively translates to more than $3600 a year! Instead of buying your expensive latte or reading the newspaper on print, put aside the amount you would usually pay for these small routine purchases in a small container. You will be surprised at how much you’re saving out of your older budget.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Being indebted is a vicious cycle on its own. You’re talking about continuous payments, not to mention huge interest rates. The best way to deal with this is to pay the minimum on all of your debts in order to avoid paying extraneous late fees. Whatever cash excesses you may have, you can opt to add on to the payments you make in your biggest debt. This way, you are concentrated on getting the biggest debts first that cost you the greatest interest rates. Doing this progressively, you’ll be amazed at how much you’ll get off your huge debts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The last and most important step is to jot down the amount you earn the sum you spend. You can make use of computer cash management programs, or make database sheets of your own. Make a system that works for you and will help you keep track of your monthly budgeting progress.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7JuUekJGKbP2y63V2uweQUEGCIkzRrBY9zam9IiPK_ozKp98T9mGdfGWJnzhoZOWixECftCgGVqa1no6EsApndfmmwU_rJfS7R9o5qQOzJMz7lPN4-9MT6qk_dno9WqHmcgcz2GR-vtgP/s1600/a_Budgeting.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;214&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7JuUekJGKbP2y63V2uweQUEGCIkzRrBY9zam9IiPK_ozKp98T9mGdfGWJnzhoZOWixECftCgGVqa1no6EsApndfmmwU_rJfS7R9o5qQOzJMz7lPN4-9MT6qk_dno9WqHmcgcz2GR-vtgP/s320/a_Budgeting.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
A budget is basically a money plan, outlining your financial goals. Having a budget, you can well establish and regulate funds, set and achieve your financial objectives, and make advance decisions as to how you want your finances to function well for you. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The main idea in budgeting is for you to put aside a certain amount of money for expected as well as unexpected costs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply put, budgeting means an estimation of monthly home expenses basing it on previous expenses and bills. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The initial step to take in budgeting is to find out how long will your compensation last. Define fixed expenses like car payments, home rental, insurance, etc. Likewise follow up your expenditures thoroughly for a month so you can discover and understand where your funds are going. Through proper determination of your “spending patterns”, you can immediately identify solutions for effective budgeting. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For instance, when you have a steady monthly income of $4,000, you should subtract all your identified monthly bills from that income. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Other bills can be assessed and then subtracted from the amount of your income. The balance that remained after fixed costs can now be your budget in the household. Rather than allocating money for miscellaneous like gas, clothing, entertainment and groceries, financial planning will allow you instead to use proportions or percentages of it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The strategic solution in order for budgeting to be successful is inflexibility as well as flexibility; there are fixed expenses so payment must be an inflexible factor. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Budgeting will best work when very scarce omissions are made to greater limits. The idea here is to formulate goals and plans, then abide by it as much as you possibly can.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here are tips on how to budget:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Have good sense of money management.&amp;nbsp; Your attitude is essential. Reach an agreement and compromise and know the significance of reducing expenditures; it all involves a lot of sacrifice. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Plan your situation. Make a listing with your earnings to one side and your overheads on the other side. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Know the difference between luxuries and necessities. List down what you believe as luxuries, with it, split the list in half, crossing out half the list. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Practice frugality but with dignity. You can have fun with little or without spending at all. Rather than going shopping, play with the kids at the beach or at the park.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqXQ14WKCzyC480Vgv4SjgNLm0LB-TYHq3d_VhkgxNrhqxcsKEPUslepppb84BctVCe1ufhCIJg1WH7nHCOD-LiboULdySWp_PNaNsEEgqDkE8uu-uUfuuZ4kSsXCP2DZ0Rl1IH5WY8Iwz/s1600/method.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqXQ14WKCzyC480Vgv4SjgNLm0LB-TYHq3d_VhkgxNrhqxcsKEPUslepppb84BctVCe1ufhCIJg1WH7nHCOD-LiboULdySWp_PNaNsEEgqDkE8uu-uUfuuZ4kSsXCP2DZ0Rl1IH5WY8Iwz/s1600/method.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Saving is basically putting aside money or a way to utilize your present income for future use. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One saves for several reasons such as for a college education, buying a new car, for a new TV set you wish to acquire in three to four months time, for down payment on a home, or to provide for yourself when retirement comes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As much as there are several reasons for saving, there are likewise many methods in which one can save. In most instances, the best method can be determined by whatever plans you have for the future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Savings accounts. When saving for just a short period or for emergency purposes, consider opening a savings account passbook, as it is in this method that you can easily gain access to your funds. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Great for both long and short term savings, you can deposit and withdraw money to your account and earn interest, based on your average daily balance. A minimum balance is required to be maintained though, and you are charged with a penalty should you fail to maintain it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Checking account with interest.&amp;nbsp; Here one can benefit from checking account conveniences, while your deposits gain interests. Generally these types of accounts grants privileges such as limitless withdrawal and check writing, access to ATM and bill payments that can be done online. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This method typically requires a daily maintaining balance of at least $2,000.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Money market insured accounts. For long-termed goals, this method is ideal, as it generally offers a much higher rate of interest compared to a regular or standard savings account.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The interest rate usually is dependent on the amount of money in your bank account; larger balance means higher interest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; “CD” or Certificates of Deposit.&amp;nbsp; This is a savings method requiring you to “loan” your money to your financial agency for a certain time frame, usually ranging from thirty days up to five years. Here, the longer the time span again, means higher interest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Keep in mind that usually insurance companies offer better deals on interests compared to banks, so before you invest, compare rates first!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At certain times, when your goal is many years away, it can be a wiser decision to save money in a certain way that you are not drawn on using it other than the main reason for saving it. Deciding on the right financial agency such as a bank, credit union or insurance firm can bring about a lot of benefit in your finances. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

A lot of teens nowadays do not understand the value of earning and spending money. They were not oriented that investing is necessary even if they are still students. As parents, you play a crucial role in this area. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You should be able to teach your kids on how to save money. They should be able to understand the concept of money and investment as early as childhood. This will prepare them to learn money management, as they grow old. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here are some tips on how you can teach your children how to save money:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Your children should be educated of the meaning of money. Once your children have learned how to count, that is the perfect time for you teach them the real meaning of money. You should be consistent and explain to them in simple ways and do this frequently so that they may be able to remember what you taught them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Always explain to them the value of saving money. Make them understand its importance and how it will impact their life. It is important that you entertain questions from them about money and you should be able to answer them right away.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. When giving them their allowances. You need to give them their allowances in denominations. Then you can encourage them that they should keep a certain bill for the future. You can motivate them to do this by telling them that the money can be saved and they can buy new pair of shoes or the toys they want once they are able to save.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. You can also teach them to work for money. You can start this at your own home. You can pay them fifty cents to one dollar every time they clean their rooms, do the dishes or feed their pets. This concept of earning little money will make them think that money is something they have worked for and should be spent wisely.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. You can teach them to save money by giving them piggy banks where they can put coins and wait until they get full. You can also open bank accounts for them and let them deposit money from their allowance. You should always show them how much they have earned to keep them motivated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Money and saving is not something that is learned by children in one sitting. You should be patient in teaching them and relating the value of money in all of their activities. Children will learn this easily if you are patient and consistent in guiding them and encouraging them in this endeavor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Picture million dollar yachts, kayaks, electric boats and other watercrafts gliding through the Newport Harbor - and you have the Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade.&amp;nbsp; The parade features dazzling holiday&lt;br /&gt;
lights that light up the bay, amazing the nearly one million visitors that crowd Newport Beach and Newport Harbor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Over the course of 14 miles, the yachts and watercraft will amaze the spectators.&amp;nbsp; For more than 90 years,&lt;br /&gt;
the Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade has dazzled spectators and locals.&amp;nbsp; All along the beach, the parade provides views for restaurants, locals, private home owners, and even those on public beaches.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Along with the private boats, many charter companies&amp;nbsp; offer the chance for parade goers to participate in &lt;br /&gt;

A pier can be one of the most romantic places to go in the world.&amp;nbsp; If you doubt that, take a trip to the Balboa Pier in Newport Beach and you&#39;ll see first hand just how great a pier can be.&amp;nbsp; On any given summer night, this pier is enveloped in darkness by 10 PM.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While the average fisherman heads home when the pier is dark, life continues.&amp;nbsp; All along the pier, darkness does nothing but add to the atmosphere. Towards the end of the pier, you can see the neon lights of Ruby&#39;s Diner lighting up the sky, calling out to those on the pier.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Walking along the pier you can see many different lights illuminating the sky.&amp;nbsp; The Balboa Pavilion can be seen as well, adding to the already magical time that the lights help to add to the pier.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In many ways, the Balboa Pavilion is a sister attraction to the pier.&amp;nbsp; They were both built in 1906 and designed to attract people to the Newport area.&amp;nbsp; Even in those times, the pier and the pavilion helped to bring&amp;nbsp; travelers to the area.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Down the peninsula from the pier, the area has a &lt;br /&gt;
feeling that rivals days gone by.&amp;nbsp; For fishermen and&lt;br /&gt;
those that enjoy fishing, the Balboa Pier is simply&lt;br /&gt;
heaven on earth.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Looking to the south of the pier, you&#39;ll see the Newport Jetty and the bay entrance.&amp;nbsp; Main Street is right around the corner, adding a wealth of things to do to the pier.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even though some consider fishing to be secondary on&amp;nbsp; the pier, it gives fisherman that are there more room to fish.&amp;nbsp; For many residents of the area, the pier is where they began their life of fishing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When standing on at the end looking down the Balboa&amp;nbsp; Pier you&#39;ll probably be amazed.&amp;nbsp; The 920 foot pier is simply incredible to look at.&amp;nbsp; Walking down it is&amp;nbsp; great any time of year, especially at night when&amp;nbsp; taking a moonlit stroll.&amp;nbsp; For honeymooners or married couples, the pier beckons out for romance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Balboa Pier is open from 5 AM until midnight.&amp;nbsp; There are restrooms located near the entrance, with lights and fish cleaning stations located on the pier.&amp;nbsp; At the end of the pier, there is even a small restaurant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Located in the city of Newport Beach, the Balboa Pier is a must visit for anyone who loves fishing.&amp;nbsp; Even if you don&#39;t like fishing, the pier is great to walk at night or during the day.&amp;nbsp; If you want to see what piers are all about, make sure you check out the beauty and splendor that the Balboa Pier will provide you with.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Make use of your online power - through Internet marketing. Here are simple methods that you may employ to boost the visibility of your business without shelling out more than what you can afford. However,&amp;nbsp; these techniques need patience and some footwork to produce agreeable results. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Firstly, you need a website before you can make use of these low cost Internet marketing strategies. So go create one or hire a web developer. It will display your products and services. This will be used in employing the following Internet marketing techniques.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Affiliate Marketing &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is the process of recruiting a network of smaller websites known as affiliates to drive targeted traffic to a website. Ad copy and links will be provided by the advertisers. You will have to pay a certain percentage of the sales profit to your affiliates.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Links&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of your goals should be to attain a good ranking with search engines. One way to do it is through link building. This could be done through trading links to other businesses that are related with yours.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Newsletters&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sending out newsletters to your subscribers (those who signed up for your newsletters) will help greatly in establishing a good working relationship with your customers or prospective customers. It has to be short, sweet, consistent and written for a general audience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. E-mail Marketing&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As one of the best cost-effective Internet marketing tools, it stays as a very important method of keeping your customers aware of your products and services. Just make sure to avoid spamming or soon enough you will have to close down you business due to complaints. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Articles&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you put quality content in the form of articles in your website along with your products and services, search engines will have to index your website. Getting you website indexed by popular search engines means more traffic for you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgz7Y1Kh1bJJCRfARK1UXedduFe-0HG56WgxZgZWKhRTKqMr2Dv6OknkfKRiUFnWz0bpC_24eJoEPpb8tHJ6ZWYZN2Bw8ReH2BwpzE4gVMyyDf3xy5mMK3Np2B8AtF9Vym3iV_vn5sSfjWB/s1600/Effective+SEO+Comes+Cheap.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;200&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgz7Y1Kh1bJJCRfARK1UXedduFe-0HG56WgxZgZWKhRTKqMr2Dv6OknkfKRiUFnWz0bpC_24eJoEPpb8tHJ6ZWYZN2Bw8ReH2BwpzE4gVMyyDf3xy5mMK3Np2B8AtF9Vym3iV_vn5sSfjWB/s200/Effective+SEO+Comes+Cheap.jpg&quot; width=&quot;200&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Search engine optimization or SEO is the hottest way to drive targeted traffic to your website. Maximizing the benefits of a well optimized website will yield lots of earnings for the marketer. However, optimizing your site might cost you thousands of dollars if you are not skilled in this area.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But to tell you the truth, you can essentially get information on low cost SEO anywhere in the Internet. But only several really show you how to work out an affordable search engine optimization endeavor. And those few that really inform include this article. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Link exchanges&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One cheap SEO method that can get you best results is through link exchanges or linking to and from other web sites. Depending on the websites that you would like to exchange links with, this tool could even cost you nothing at all. Contact the author or owner of the web site you want to have a link exchange with. You will be surprised with the eventual spiking up of your page ranking using this means of getting your website optimized.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Write or acquire key word rich articles&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Writing truly informative and keyword-rich articles is one surefire way to make your Internet business more visible than ever. It&#39;s either you write your own articles or you get them from article directories that allow you to post these articles on your website as long as you keep the resource box or the author&#39;s byline in tact. Just don&#39;t stuff your articles with keywords that even idiots would get bore of reading them. The readability and freshness of your articles will still be the basis of whether your writers will keep on coming back to your website or not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Catchy Domain Name&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What better will make your target visitors remember your website but with a very easy-to-recall domain name. Something sweet and short will prove to be very invaluable. Registering your domain name is not for free. But creativity is.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Organize your site navigation&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Providing easy steps in navigating your site is one way to make your visitors become at ease with your site. This, in turn, will improve the flow of traffic to your website. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Low cost SEO is always evolving like any other approach in information technology. There are many methods that can very well land you on the top ten rankings of Google or on any other search engines. Some may cost a lot but there are methods that can give you the same results at a low price or you can even do on your own such as those mentioned above.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-ablog.blogspot.com/feeds/8326641211797598042/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://go-ablog.blogspot.com/2012/05/effective-seo-comes-cheap.html#comment-form' title='19 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3075170136764258202/posts/default/8326641211797598042'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3075170136764258202/posts/default/8326641211797598042'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-ablog.blogspot.com/2012/05/effective-seo-comes-cheap.html' title='Effective SEO Comes Cheap'/><author><name>Eman Sulaeman</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15567904000650611249</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgz7Y1Kh1bJJCRfARK1UXedduFe-0HG56WgxZgZWKhRTKqMr2Dv6OknkfKRiUFnWz0bpC_24eJoEPpb8tHJ6ZWYZN2Bw8ReH2BwpzE4gVMyyDf3xy5mMK3Np2B8AtF9Vym3iV_vn5sSfjWB/s72-c/Effective+SEO+Comes+Cheap.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>19</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3075170136764258202.post-650302725589851209</id><published>2012-05-26T16:13:00.001+07:00</published><updated>2019-04-10T18:45:22.072+07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="business"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="marketing"/><title type='text'>Two Basic Parts of a Low Cost Web Site Promotion</title><content type='html'>&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot; trbidi=&quot;on&quot;&gt;

Anybody could own a web site. Anybody could up sell their own products and services to their target audience. Anyone could try to promote their web site with a low cost. But there are not many web sites that have a truly successful web site with traffic all day through. What these individuals or companies lack is the most essential factor of success – a low cost web site promotion that really works.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you have been trying to promote your own web site and you have received traffic every hour, my hands are down for you. But for those people who need assistance, who does not have the patience to promote their own product and services, and lacks knowledge to properly advertise themselves, here are some guidelines to help you achieve success with a low cost web site promotion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Search Engine Submission and Ranking are the two basic parts to a low cost web site promotion. Both of the parts have the same effect on the market of the web site – for your products and services presented in your web site catches the people’s attention. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first inexpensive method of web site promotion is the search engine submission. This first part is the act filing information and submitting your web site to search engines. There are two types of Search engine submission – manual and automatic. For a low cost and effective web site promotion, automatic submission is ideal because after filling up the information, a software program would forward this information to other search engines.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The second money-saving web site promotion is ranking.&amp;nbsp; This refers to the numerical position in which your web site appears on a search engine, based upon the web site’s criteria. Some search engines rank the order in which your search results appear primarily by how many other web sites link to each page. The leading web sites on this order would eventually fulfill a low cost web site promotion. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Other types of inexpensive web site promotion you could use to boost up traffic on your web site are banner advertising, classified ads, text links and section sponsorship. Banner advertisements pop up above and below web pages, and sometimes in another window. Text links and section sponsorship may cost more, but these methods helps in promoting to your specified target audience. It wouldn’t harm your web site to try these methods. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Always remember that the effects of your not so costly web site promotion hits are increasing significantly each day.&amp;nbsp; Don’t waste time; find an effective and affordable web site promotion of your choice today.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-ablog.blogspot.com/feeds/650302725589851209/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://go-ablog.blogspot.com/2012/05/two-basic-parts-of-low-cost-web-site.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3075170136764258202/posts/default/650302725589851209'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3075170136764258202/posts/default/650302725589851209'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-ablog.blogspot.com/2012/05/two-basic-parts-of-low-cost-web-site.html' title='Two Basic Parts of a Low Cost Web Site Promotion'/><author><name>Eman Sulaeman</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15567904000650611249</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZRqGIYkRuuzumS1Pz1c7gSLOMbql7wc-LUagfYttej7yRXXr3A-it6x0h0Z5MdZCfxRafCp4W-IXB40M676BvVMlNjNDZ1C6zuV1IjB18UW3xAKCrgB-q5Q12A4sWxGmEca0BzdZI2KW_/s72-c/free-website-promotion.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
