Mindless is a good title for a magazine blog, as people don't like to think nowadays. It's true as there are so many more things, and choices available out there, people just want to get straight to the answer and solution fast, without spending too much time thinking. Furthermore that are many success stories available that can be used as templates to help you get straight to the point faster and better. For example I was reading a magazine. The first page layout was captivating enough to be used as template. In fact a whole magazine could be translated into a website. It makes perfect sense as all the layout and design work has been done. Now is time to tkae some pictures.


I find that I can write better in a comfortable space like Starbucks. Yee ha.

This is really cool. sitting on a comfy sofa at Starbucks at the curve with my notebook on my lap,and typing away. this is the epitomy of a good life where i can do my work in public are with the sight, smell and sounds. I can surf here as long as I want, as my battery or coffee permits. But think of it, this could be a good escapism on weekends particularly when I need to do some work or data crunching on my laptop, seeing there are still so many things left to be done. But initially, taking this step forward was not easy, I had to step out of my comfort zone, and take the trouble to pack my laptop with all the cable... so I can be here to do work. Now I can work in style, and comfort. And that's the way to go. This is a perfect space for blogging, and for simple photo editing job. Yes, this is definitely a great experience, and I expect to do more of the same in the near futre.

Earlier today I attended the Lean Factor talk finally. It was quite informative and the sldie presentation was well done. I thought the graphics looked interesting e, which helps create a posieve outlook. In terms of content, if I have learnt something ne. I guess... from what to eat, what to do, and what to think.

You are not a beggar in love. Remember that. You do not fear of being rejected. You pay the price to get what you want. at the end it is about what you want and the price you are willing to say to get it. What do you want. it is not what others think of you. You decide are prepared to change that. Yot are prepared to change all setbacks and misconception to get what yot want. You do not fear rejection because you are willing to pay the price to get what you want.

The guys came to my house to fix the aircon. I realised there are so many small parts moulded onto the plastic casing. All with its specific tiny purpose. Then i realised the curtain railings is another tool so is the clock. When i stepped out of the room

It has been sometime since i last checked my blood pressure. so out of the blue i decided to check today and found the reading was shockingly high at 173/95 and pulse at 124 (After taking my medication and some 10 hours later, my pressure has dropped to 140/81 and pulse 81, what a major difference!) I admit i was quite stressed since yesterday and have not taken my medication for the past two days. Such is the importance of health that i postpone all activities that may accidentally trigger it. It is important to do so as health comes first. You never know you may subject yourself to too much stress unconsciously. So it is good to take care.of myself and check my pressure at regular intervals to make sure everything is well balanced. I think one of the reasons i unconsciously stayed away from some activities and people for that matter is to avoid stress whichis a good thing. It is smart avoid stress at all times. Another part me you has to take over and take charge. Think about that.

Once you are up the ladder stay there don't fall back. All things are good. Believe in that. And climb higher as the ladder may take you. Don't miss your chance to be great. Feel worthy me success and be willing to accept yourself. Do what it takes to climb to the next rung not letting things slip.

Today i went for a food review at maya hotel. The food was great but what was even better i brought lyn along to write the story. i first saw her at mmi and then met her again at gis. That's when we exchanged numbers. Thought we had lost touch until yesterday when she replied my sms. Then today she showed tp with her cousin for the interview. It is good to make new friends:) which hopefully lasts.

This phone is great. I am still getting acquainted with it everyday. There are many surprises to unfold. Applications i can use to manage and upgrade my life. Journals i can use.to record my thoughts and observations. This is a simple phone with lots of benefits and potential and almost unlimited applications. I like it.

Another way i can use blogging is to share what i have learnt. for example after attending a seminar my mind is brimming with ideas. one thing i can do is to share about what i have learnt in a blog which is a refresher to me and which can benefit others as well. The truth is there is so much sharing to do . It shouldn't be a waste. One of the challenges is to keep the waste to a minimum. Always do that.

I am continually being amazed by this handphone and what it can do. Most importantly it is about freedom of expression. The fact that i can type freely and blog from my handphone shows how versatile it is. Yesterday i saw an ad on the iphone. It was very impressive indeed. But it all boils down to communications. Now that you have it. Then use it. Thats the power of communications. Come to think of it. I got so much power in my fingertips using this device.

About blogging i guess what stopped me in the past or even present is the lack me privacy. it is not about the lack of ideas or events but the platform in which you reveal those ideas. Of course typing into the computer is the easiest thing to do. But now with the handphone.hi can also blog using this device which gives me some form of privacy as i write and yet the meaning remains intact. About writing. It is a therapeutic exercise which helps redefine you. Because we have new thoughts everyday it is an important thing to express those thoughts as part of your self determining process.

Always celebrate the end result. For example in writing one of the best things is to be able to write articles in a blog as the end result. Holding that thought in your mind can inspire you to create the whole course or generate the energy for you to follow through. the energy to follow through starts with a single focus. This is the secret of champions.

Talk about rain, whenever it pains you feel stuck in a place because realistically you can't go anywhere. Is it the same in real life. sometimes we don't move because it seems unprofitable or impossible but try turning around and look at life in terms me action. What more action action can you take instead of less action. meatstse everything in life in terms of action. Just imagine a shooting gallery where you are on the other side armed with a machine gun. Whenever the person walks out the door the gun starts blazing. Put yourself in the shoes of the man and when the world sees you are not in action the guns will start blazing away.

-original message-
Subjecaey have not taken that important step to change. Their world would never be the same and they never would have tasted the fruits of success that came later on in life. Why do people stay present. It is because of responsibility. For example being a parent takes you to a whole new level of responsibility and presence as you need to think of others aside yourself. And be aware of things you were not conscious of before. The secret of life therefore is about reinventing yourself. That's what life is all about. They say that change is the only constant and if there is something that can make your life count is to change and hopefully the sooner the better. For others change is enforced upon them when something happens. When they have no choice but to face the realities of the moment and therefore forced to be present to what they were not conscious of before. In fact every crisis create the opportumity for us to be more present in life therefore, with this realisation i urge you to be more present in every area me your life from now on.

Life is about reinventing yourself is it not? Think of all the inspiring stories you have listened to . Isn't it about people who reinvented their lives and became more blessed and powerful than they could ever be if they have not taken that important step to change. Their world would never be the same and they never would have tasted the fruits of success that came later on in life. Why do people stay present. It is because of responsibility. For example being a parent takes you to a whole new level of responsibility and presence as you need to think of others aside yourself. And be aware of things you were not conscious of before.

Fight your way to the present. I think what stops people from living powerfully and independently is their inability to be present. For example my room is a mess and i have become unconscious about that. Until the need arise for me to clear it. Then i begin to become more aware. and it boils down to being present. Am i present to the present. Them i should eight back to the present.

I haven't watched astro for months and i was just thinking me what i have been missing particularly the fabulous documentaries on discovery channel, history channel and cnn. And guess what i got to enjoy all three channels and more on my mobile phone. I woke up tinkering with my phone last night and ended up subscribing to these channels. Woo hoo. now i not only get to watch my favourite documentaries i get to bring them wherever with me. Mobile tv is the latest addition to my phone. The past week has been a major discovery about my phone features. This is the ultimate gadget i have laid my hands on. The sides novelty of this machine plus the fact it is fully upgradable is well worth the price. Another thing left to discover about the phone is the satellite navigation. My next stop is to install garmin gps and this ultimate handheld tool will be complete. By the way i an writing this blog with mobile and posting it with shozu.

.For two months since i bought my nokia 5800 touch screen handphone l have hardly used it, due to connectivit.,y problems with my computer- everything from detecting the phone to linking to the internet. It has been a huge nightmare for me which involves me lugging the heavy computer to nokia and maxis centre a few times thinking it was the configurztion problem. Finally today i got th idea which came suddenly that i shiuld connect the cable to the source at the back of my computer. I did that and voila. It finally works, yippee!
