这个月，果然是我一生中最可恶的一月。

我真的好累。。。。。。。。

何时才可休息。。。。

啊啊啊啊啊啊。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

Pass few mont h back, I think was around July (almost forgotten when I go korea) my company assigned me to Korea (Ahead Mobile HQ) for some architecture design discussion on a project. This was the 2nd time I take flight to a country which I didn’t understand thier culture and language and it just similar to the "pit stop" in "Amazing Race" show. Anyway, thanks to my ex-collegue, James for giving some tour guide as he went there before. hhhh….  Else I will be lost in South Korea…..

The flight departed from KLIA at 1.00am Malaysia time and arriving at the Incheon International Airport at 8.30am (Korea time). Once stepped out from the Airport, it just like Genting, cooling……

So, the very very first things, I did was dig out my Dell AXIM PDA and finding those map that James gave me earlier and I was suppose to go to "Gang-Nam Gu" (江南区). Taking the limosin bus from airport to COEX Mall take about 1 hours and with my PDA I was able find the service appartment which will be my stay in Korea for that weeks.

Korea, as we all know is a fast growthing country for mobile and telecommunication technology. I personally experienced it the technology, especially the DMB (Digital Media Broadcast) and WiBRO showcase in the korea annual ICT exhibition.

Nevertheless, my Sifu Seong Tae,big boss YD and Jacky will be the only 3 person that I can communicate using English. So, wherever they go to lunch or dinner just gonna stick to one of them in order to get the food I want hhhhhh…….. This working trip to Korea was a relax one as 110% of my brain working on the architecture with Seong Tae haha…… Another nice working experience environment.

Hmmm…talk about food and leng lui….. wahhhhh……. Food no need to say… Taste good and special …. Leng Lu i wor… able to catch a few in the exhibition only… mostly are show girls hhhh….. Some photos to share……

古巨基 - 爱得太迟 

我过去那死党早晚共对
各也扎职以后没法畅聚
而终於相约到但无言共对疏淡如水
曰夜做见爸爸刚好想呻
却霎眼看出他多了皱纹
而他的苍老感是从来未觉太内疚担心
最心痛是爱得太迟有些心意
不可等某个曰子
盲目地发奋忙忙忙其实自私
梦中也习惯有压力要我得知
最可怕是爱需要及时只差一秒
心声都已变历史
忙极亦放肆见我爱的见双至
要抱要吻怎黱也好
偏要推说要等一下次
我也觉我体质仿似下降
看了症得到是别要太忙
而影碟都扫光但从来未看因有事赶
曰夜做储的钱都应该够
到圣诞正好讲跟我白头
谁知她开了口未能挨下去己恨我很久
错失太易爱得太迟我怎想到
她忍不到那曰子
盲目地发奋忙忙忙从来未知幸福会掠过
再也没法说钟意爱一个字
也需要及时只差一秒
心声都己变历史为忙未放肆
见我爱见的双至要抱要吻要怎黱也好
不要相信一切有下次
相拥我所爱又花几多秒
这几秒能够做到又有多少
未算少足够遗憾忘掉
多少抱憾多少过路人
太懂估计却不懂爱锡自身
人人在发奋想起他朝都兴奋
但今晚未过你要过也很吸引
纵不信运你不过是人
你想很远爱於咫尺却在等
来曰别操心趁你有能力开心
世界有太多东西发生不要等到天

People are inttriguade when they see good things happening in lives or individuals, families and organizations that based on solid principles. They admire such personal strength and maturity, such family unity and teamwork, such adaptive  syneregistic organization culture.

And they immediate request is very revealing of thier basic paradigm. "How do you do it? Teach me the techniques". What they are really saying is, "Give me some quick fix advice or solution"….

They will find people who will meet thier want and teach these things; and for a short  time. They may eliminate some of the cosmetic or acute problems through social aspirin and band-aids.

But the underlying chrnics condition remains, and eventually new acute symptoms will appear.

THE WAY WE SEE THE PROBLEM IS THE PROBLEM…….

Quote from ….. Part One [Paradigms and Principle] - 7 Habits of Highly Effective People…… 

Hope it applies in our daily life no matter we are working, teaching, managing, relaxing etc…. And even me still learning it……. Wish to apply this to my current IT job or any other engineering related field you are in……

hmmm……Been study in MMU for 3 years in cyberjaya but still din manage to pay a visit to this Botanical Garden. A great scene and nice place for relaxing and enjoy the beaty of the mother nature.

Past 3 month, just manage to go there with my old gangs of friend (Fox, Yen Li,Chit Chit,Kee Leng, B Jun). We manage to jog and cycling there. Of  course lar… need to pay for the bicycle rental (RM3)….. Pretty much a nice experience for me  as Idin "screw up" the bicycle.

For those that really stuck at work and having some tention, is a nice place to go. For those who already bored "pak toh -ing" at MidValley, Pyramid, One Utama.. Should try out this place…..

Forget to mention, from there you will able to see Prime Minister Office, Residential Area
etc….

After that we have some shopping at Putrajaya Alamanda…

Hmmm…next episod may be i will blog about my experience in South korea……

Recently, I come across a meaningful article –> (Priciple  of 90/10) which just enlightened my tought  of  life. Thanks to my collegue (brother joey) for this article.

Sometime, things doesn’t turn out the way we want to be but just need to be calm or ‘lang jeng’ rather than being controled by the situation and turn out  frustration and piss off…..

Take a look of this article and read this oftenly when your mind is out of  control, it really works.

Discover the 90/10 Principle by: Stephen Covey
It will change your life (at least the way you react to the situations).

.
.
.

What is this principle? 10% of life is made up of what happens to you. 90% of life is decided by how you react.

What does this mean? We really have no control over 10% of what happens to us.
We cannot stop the car from breaking down. The plane will be late arriving, which throws our whole schedule off. A driver may cut us off in traffic.
We have no control over this 10%. The other 90% is different. You determine the other 90%.
How? ……….By your reaction.
You cannot control a red light. but you can control your reaction. Don’t let people fool you; YOU can control how you react.
Let’s use an example.

You are eating breakfast with your family. Your daughter knocks over a cup of coffee onto your business shirt. You have no control over what just happened.
What happens next will be determined by how you react.
You curse.
You harshly scold your daughter for knocking the cup over. She breaks down in tears. After scolding her, you turn to your spouse and criticize her for placing the cup too close to the edge of the table. A short verbal battle follows. You storm upstairs and change your shirt. Back downstairs, you find your daughter has been too busy crying to finish breakfast and get ready for school. She misses the bus.

Your spouse must leave immediately for work. You rush to the car and drive your daughter to school. Because you are late, you drive 40 miles an hour in a 30 mph speed limit.
After a 15-minute delay and throwing $60 traffic fine away, you arrive at school. Your daughter runs into the building without saying goodbye. After arriving at the office 20 minutes late, you find you forgot your briefcase. Your day has started terrible. As it continues, it seems to get worse and worse. You look forward to coming home.

When you arrive home, you find small wedge in your relationship with your spouse and daughter.
Why? …. Because of how you reacted in the morning.
Why did you have a bad day?

A) Did the coffee cause it?
B) Did your daughter cause it?
C) Did the policeman cause it?
D) Did you cause it?

The answer is “D".

You had no control over what happened with the coffee. How you reacted in those 5 seconds is what caused your bad day.

Here is what could have and should have happened.
Coffee splashes over you. Your daughter is about to cry. You gently say, "Its ok honey, you just need to be more careful next time". Grabbing a towel you rush upstairs. After grabbing a new shirt and your briefcase, you come back down in time to look through the window and see your child getting on the bus. She turns and waves. You arrive 5 minutes early and cheerfully greet the staff. Your boss comments on how good the day you are having.
Notice the difference?

Two different scenarios. Both started the same. Both ended different.
Why?

Because of how you REACTED.
You really do not have any control over 10% of what happens. The other 90% was determined by your reaction.

Here are some ways to apply the 90/10 principle. If someone says something negative about you, don’t be a sponge. Let the attack roll off like water on glass. You don’t have to let the negative comment affect you!

React properly and it will not ruin your day. A wrong reaction could result in losing a friend, being fired, getting stressed out etc.

How do you react if someone cuts you off in traffic? Do you lose your temper? Pound on the steering wheel? A friend of mine had the steering wheel fall off) Do you curse? Does your blood pressure skyrocket? Do you try and bump them?

WHO CARES if you arrive ten seconds later at work? Why let the cars ruin your drive?
Remember the 90/10 principle, and do not worry about it.

You are told you lost your job.

Why lose sleep and get irritated? It will work out. Use your worrying energy and time into finding another job.

The plane is late; it is going to mangle your schedule for the day. Why take outpour frustration on the flight attendant? She has no control over what is going on.

Use your time to study, get to know the other passenger. Why get stressed out? It will just make things worse.

Now you know the 90-10 principle. Apply it and you will be amazed at the results. You will lose nothing if you try it. The 90-10 principle is incredible. Very few know and apply this principle.
The result?

Millions of people are suffering from undeserved stress, trials, problems and heartache. We all must understand and apply the 90/10 principle.

It CAN change your life!!!
