Hi! Folks,

What are your writing tools used to maintain your websites? Which one matters to you the most ?

My previous Dell laptop lasted slightly more than 5 years old and I decided to retire it due to some technical flaws which resulted in it not being able to boot up. As such, I took over my eldest son's existing Asus A43, almost a year old and let him upgrade his unit to ASUS N56VZ-S4079V as he needs much higher graphic card. 

This latest ASUS N Series laptop not only represents an entirely new standard in ASUS  towards delivering much greater user happiness, in term of its designs.  It also features and focus on more attractive design and aesthetic appeal alongside the finest professional-grade audio offered on notebook PC. As a result, they are able to give users an improved and highly intuitive touch input that has been engineered to ensure greater accuracy, and an optional backlit keyboard purpose-built to provide complete convenience. All of these components are part and parcel of ASUS DNA and design thinking. 

Other distinguished features are as follow:-

I) incredible audio and advanced power

In addition to a wider range and improved clarity, N Series notebooks include a bundled subwoofer for extra-impactful bass, culminating in the finest audio on any portable PC.

Advanced display technology creates striking 150viewing angles, so full HD* looks better from any direction. These allow for better shared viewing of content by several people, and mean image quality remain uncompromised from almost any direction. Every panel offers at least 720p HD, and optional panels support full HD 1080p for even finer image quality with improved clarity, brightness, and contrast Clearer, brighter, more detailed, and far more vivid images that bring your computing to life in HD.

*Optional 1080p panel. Default screen offers 720p HD

IV ) Award- winning luxurious hairline-textured metallic design

The new N Series has secured global acclaim for its artistry, including a prestigious 2012 Red Dot Design Award. Its ripple-effect speaker mesh imbues an elegant look to complement the deluxe audio offered, while the precision-etched hairline metallic cover offers added accentuation via an illuminated ASUS logo.

GE 13 RESULT - HIDDEN TREASURE


GE 13 RESULT- HIDDEN TREASURE

I do respect the author's view.

However, I have a totally different view altogether.

Since we are the boss of these two servants, BN and PR. One is spending billions ringgit of my and your money, yet received only 5.2 million voters. Whereas the other did not spend our money and earn their money to run their ceramah and etc....

On top of the above, BN is using all the machinery such as mainstream  TVs and Newspapers yet lots of their heavy weights ended in a loss whereas on the PR's side, most of their heavy weights won the war with excellent strategy, effective and efficiency in gaining majority votes. 

To give a victory to BN without consideration of all the above factors. Then I am not a smart boss who evaluates our staff fairly and justly. 

My view is that I still prefer to engage a better, efficient and effective team to run my business. This is my choice. How about you?

Please put forward your view in the column, provided below.

Thanks and look forward to hear from you.

So, BN is still in power...
by Rosheen Fatima (Notes) on Monday, May 6, 2013

 I'm going to say something that most people are not going to like hearing, and I'm saying this because of the huge amount of black on my facebook wall.

Did you, any of you, really think that PR would sweep the elections? Put aside the dirty campaigning, and election tactics, did you really think PR would win?

From what i've seen over social media over the last few months, I thought that PR would win more seats. I believed that there would be a bigger change, I believed that the people would put into action what they were so vocal (online) about. But then I stopped myself and looked at the people in my social circles, the people I interact with online. We are a tiny, tiny middle class online savvy minority. It is because your social circle expected a certain outcome that you did too. But we do not represent the majority, and we don't even interact with them. Do you really expect to predict how they will vote? My father is Sarawakian, and I lived there for many years of my life. I lived in Kuching, but I know that in the interior and rural areas there are so many Malaysians who are not like you, who are not like me. Did I expect them to vote for PR, no. Did I expect them to vote for BN, yes. Why? Because that is all they see, that is what they know, the bribe money that they get means so much to them because they have close to nothing. And it's sad to say that that is the majority that we do not know.

So instead of turning your profile pictures black, if you really believe in change and the party you support, start planning now. Start the campaign to win the hearts of the people outside the urban areas, the people in the heartland. We know what's going on, they don't. Go talk to them.

And Malaysians, get to know the other Malaysia. Don't criticise them for voting the way they feel is right. Speak to them, get to know them, understand their plight, their needs, their wants. Then campaign to them, the urbanites are practically campaigning for you already.

And don't wait until a few months before the elections to campaign. Start now. Start fighting for measures to be put in place for a better electoral system now. Start making those in power more accountable for their actions. Start making your candidates accountable for the promises they made. Stop allowing mudslinging and racism and sexism to flourish in our government. You won't stand for it, make your candidate not stand for it. Make them fight for a proper democracy over the next 5 years. Then we can see a change. It doesn't happen overnight. it doesn't come with one day every five years. And it definitely won't come if you give up.

And make the change in you.

You want our politicians to stop being racist and sexist, then stop doing it yourself.

You want our government to stop being corrupt, then stop corruption in your own life.

You want cleanliness and transparency in our country, live clean, live transparent.
You are one of the atoms that make up Malaysia, don't ask for the changes that you don't live by.

Don't be a hypocrite and ask the people in power to be any different from you.

Take the small victories. No one ever said that the journey would be short or easy.

Did anyone ever think that PR would make inroads into the birthplace of UMNO, Johor? I didn't, but they did.

Did anyone expect 80% of registered voters to turn out to vote? I didn't, but they did.

In 2003, BN won 198 seats.
In 2008, BN won 140 seats.
In 2013, BN won (as of time of posting) 132 seats (with 6 seats uncalled).
So whatever it is, it is still a small victory for PR.
And now the question is what will the numbers be in 2018?

Gandhi took 32 years to fight for independence.
Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years in the fight to end apartheid.

And we've been trying for what 10 years?
Come on Malaysia, grow up.
Yes, you're sad, but a fight is a fight, it goes on.

Democracy doesn't happen overnight, democracy is a journey.

Just because there are hurdles and obstacles in your way doesn't mean you give up.

You train for the next race.
And maybe that one you'll win.

HOW TO TURN YOUR WEAKNESS INTO STRENGTH


HOW TO TURN YOUR WEAKNESS INTO STRENGTH

Many readers and listeners have shared very positive feedback with me after listening to my speech or  after reading my written speech, so thank YOU so much for your kind words and encouragement ! 


Some of you may desire to have new resolution for 2013 of having to turn your weaknesses into strength. Do you have any idea how to start ? Thank you.

Any weakness can be turned into a strength. Likewise, any skill you have can also be turned into an expertise. It all boils down to 3P, that are Practice, Practice and Practice. No doubts, Practice does not make Perfect, but Practice makes Permanent Improvement.

Have you heard of the 10,000 rule? I have heard from my daughter's prize presentation speech from her school's headmaster. It basically says that when you spend at least 10,000 hours honing a skill of any type, you will turn it into your expertise. Read more at the link below:-

You may have read or heard as how I have successfully turned my physical weak health into a blessing. It makes me stronger, better and sweeter; not bitter. I strongly believe that nothing is permanent except God and His words and everything change over time. Everyone of us may be born with propensities in certain areas, but these do not have to define us unless we do not do something on these. E.g., I wanted to be an accountant after my form 6 just because I am good with numbers and now I am a chartered accountant. However, I am born with zero abilities in other areas such as writing and speaking, but these do not have to define me either. This is because I begin to make effort and initiative to become a professional writer and speaker which I strongly believe are learn-able skills.
For example, people often ask me how I always accomplish what i wanted in life. Some people might conclude that I was born a writer or I have a natural flair in writing to be able to do what I do today. In fact this is not true. 

To put on record, I must admit that through writing consistently and persistently that I have improved; become sharper and more concise with my words. Lots and lots of writing I had done. I was never a writer; I was a science student in my high school, studied Accounting and Law in both local and oversea universities, subsequently worked in Accountancy firm before I joined corporate world for more than twenty years after I graduated.

I have started my career as a writer in several online media in 2008 and I have yet to publish any physical books. I am merely someone who runs several blogs and uses writing to reach out to the world, with the intention to repay those kind people and souls who have touched my life significantly.

In this connection, writing has merely been something I have developed in the past four years from being a non-skill to my current strength. Because I had persistently spent so much time in reading, writing and speaking, there was no way I could acquire this skill except to become better. By doing, I continue to be better with the feedback and guidance from my mentors.

People have also asked me how I came to be so good in accomplish so many successes through my academic qualifications, career and dreams. At one stage, I have even lost sense of my  purpose in life after I have fulfilled all of my dreams at that time. (Again, this is not something I think, just something people told me so.) Similarly in my writing, this was through lots and lots of practising. This included one-to-one coaching, self-coaching, coaching readers through my articles, through unlimited belief which I have acquired some time ago.

Let us give it a serious thought. I have actually done my dues and clocked more than 10,000 hours in both writing and coaching since the start of my journey. I started my blogs  in August 2008. Till now, I have literally spent all my time thinking about how to develop myself before I can help others grow, I have clocked in the required 10,000 hours since then! (10,000 hours = 5 hours a day x 360 days x 5 years!)

Regardless of your current status, financial position and background, what defines you depend on :-

(a) your dedication/commitment in achieving that particular desire and 
(b) your passion towards achieving it.

Your passion can generate the required energy to enable you to overcome all obstacles that come along your way to success. Needless to say that at the end of the day, the journey will not come smoothly. That challenges along the journey will eventually shape you to be better, stronger and sweeter, like the transformation process that every beautiful butterfly took.

To take up new challenge, always begin with the baby step, followed by full step before we take the leap step. It is normal even if you start out shaky. So, it is accurate to say that we can’t change what we were born with but we can change how well we become in something through rigorous practice and a wealth of experience. Naturally, the more time we spend on something, the better we will become especially with appropriate guidance. The point in case is to start clocking in our developmental hours and not wait for perfection because the latter is a myth.

Therefore, it is important that we invest our hours in it if we want to become better in something. If you want to excel in it, then we need to put an extra mile more than others.

Now, you can see why I continue to invest my time in writing, coaching, building my blogs, and helping others grow every day. This is the way to strengthen our mindsets, skills and knowledge. Knowledge is the potential power. With action, it will emerge to become power. Exactly like our muscle, we need to exercise to strengthen our muscle.

Just imagine being able to live life on a completely new level - a level that would allow you to demolish obstacles to your success and finally manifest the dream life that you have been longing for. Trust me, you can do this if you know how to unleash your mind's power with the above secret weapon I have just shared with you.

I strongly believe that everyone wants a life that is enriched, abundant and complete. So please share the above post if you feel it is helpful to you.
