Create a Life, Not Just Life

"Your Successes and happiness are forgiven you only if you generously consent to share them.- The success and happiness will be very mean if you want to share with other people. "Albert Camus
To be able to simply live, maybe we need not bother to look for opportunities or thinking about how to improve the quality and benefit ourselves. However, as the most special creatures of God's creation YME, we are obliged to obtain meaningful life. We must do all it can. A wise proverb says, "Find a meaningful need and fill it better than anyone else. - Go for something meaningful, and use every opportunity that is better than anyone. "
There are several steps to make our lives more meaningful. The first step is to increase the willingness to learn. Humans have a remarkable mind, then use the mind to learn to make progress in life. We can learn from many things, among others is to learn to experience life, failure, everyday events, people and so on. So continue to increase the willingness to learn.
The second step of our lives so that more means are trying to do something to get closer to the desired dream. Work harder, more active or productive. This step is very effective in increasing the possibility of getting money, property or anything of value to humans.
One thing that should be used as guidelines that the hard work was not simply chasing 5 P, the power (power), position (position), pleasure (joy), prestige (the authority) and prosperity (wealth).Every effort is oriented only to the five it does guarantee success or even the result of abundant
modulus, but does not guarantee a pleasant end. An example is a fact about eight people millionaires in the United States who gathered at the Hotel Edge Water Beach in Chicago, Illinois in 1923. They are the people who are successful, but the tragic fate 25 years later.
One of them is Charles Schwab, CEO of leading steel companies at the time, which is Bethlehem Steel. But Charles Schwab total bankruptcy. So he was forced into debt to finance her life for 5 years before he died. The second was Richard Whitney, president of the New York Stock Exchange. But this man had spent the rest of his life in prison Sing Sing. The third person was Jesse Livermore, the king of shares "The Great Bear" on Wall Street. But he committed suicide.
The fourth person was "The Match King", Ivar Krueger, CEO of copyrights, who also committed suicide. Likewise with Leon Fraser, Chairman of the Bank of International Settlement, he committed suicide. The sixth is Hupson Howard, CEO of the largest gas company in North America. But he was mentally ill and being treated in a psychiatric hospital
until the end of his life. Arthur Cutton was previously the largest flour mill owners in the world, but he died in another country. Meanwhile, Albert Fall, the time he was a member of the president's cabinet
United States. But he died at his home in Texas when he had just come out of prison.
In this world not a few people who had been very successful, but languished in the last years of their lives. Their lives as if it does not mean though previously very wealthy. The best efforts it can make a big success, but that does not mean a guarantee of a final human life as meaningful.
Therefore the next step we have to do is to balance hard work with acts of kindness. A writer in the 20th century the French nationals, André Gide, it defines the good as follows: "True kindness presupposes the faculty of Imagining as one's own the suffering and joys of others. --
Real good is the ability to feel pain and happiness of others. "
Hard work balanced with doing good will result in high spirit to get more than what is needed.This was driven by a desire to be able to share happiness with others. In the end the good of the positive impact of the spirit of life, motivation, and progress
and economic attitudes. James Allen, author of a book called As a Man Thinketh says, "Thought and good deeds could not bring bad results; thoughts and bad deeds are not
may bring good results. "
By studying, working hard and doing good then we will be able to create a life far more meaningful. The steps as described above proved very effective also make a positive impression of ourselves is not easily forgotten. I believe that we still have a lot of opportunities and potential to obtain the precious lives wherever and whatever our job.

Live's to Give

On one afternoon when I got home from work by riding a motorcycle, I was served a little drama is very interesting, a little boy aged about ten years with very sigapnya sidelines overtaking vehicle density disebuah red light intersection in Jakarta.
With a package that enough diayunkannya blue bicycle, while distributing the packet, he greeted familiar everyone, from Tailor newspapers, street sweeper, until Mr. Tuna homestead police.
This scene made me interested, my mind immediately drifted to imagine what the child is given with the package, did he sell? "What if he sells a homeless may become permanent customers or ...??, To kill my curiosity, I followed the little boy until disebrang road, then I immediately greeted the child to whom I talked. De, "may my brother asked"? please brother, if I may know that just ketukang sister newspapers distributed, janitors, even begging the police officer, then what?, oh ... that little parcel of rice and side dishes kak, kak's why!, with a little surprise, as he asked . Oh .. no! , Brother Just interested in how you distribute the package, you look familiar and quite familiar with them. What you've known them? Then,
This little brother began, "First! I and my mother just as they were only a homeless ", every day working just a lot of people expect compassion, and the big brother live in Jakarta know that difficult, until we often do not eat, our daytime heat and nighttime cold plus our during the rainy season we were often in the rain, when we remember the first time, we were very, very sad, but after my mother opened the rice shop, our family life began to improve.
Thus the mother is always reminding me, that there are still many difficult people like us first, so if we are given a sufficient livelihood, why we can not share them.
That my mother always said "life should mean for many people", because when we go back to the Creator there is nothing we carry, just one that we bring the love of neighbor and the Charity and our good deeds, if today we can practice something good for many people, why we should delay.
Because according to my mother aged man is too short, today we have it all, but an hour later or tomorrow we are called the Creator, "What do we bring"?. The words of this little brother was stabbed my heart, at that moment I felt like a useless person, even I felt no more than a piece of junk is useless, than this little brother.
I have been feeling a great person with education and high position, but for something like this, I feel more stupid than this little boy, I am ashamed and very embarrassed. Well .. Lord, Forgive me, it was wealth, greatness and position did not take me to Thee.
Only the perfect love and faith and your hope to be with me who went to Heaven. Thank you little brother, you are my angel that brought me from my sleep.
(Love is patient, love is kind; he was not jealous. Does not demand its own way. He did not do that are not polite and did not seek its own way. He is not angry and does not save other people's mistakes. He does not rejoice because injustice, but because of the truth. He covers all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.)
Do the little things, by sharing this story with everyone, hopefully the results obtained from this small thing a big impact for many people.

Says Thank You

We are all happy when people appreciate us and the work we do. In many offices, we often see people showing off a thank-you card from their leaders, a special letter from the consumer, or a certificate of award (which may very old age). Appreciate the work!
Give thanks to your team members. Give credit for their successes and achievements. Say thank you when they managed to progress. You can do it in private, openly, in a written form, or in ways so creative. The people who appreciated his work probably would work better, too.

Show means showing respect for what you want and what you think are important. Without such feedback, your employees may be wrong to interpret what is acceptable or highly valued.
Research shows that people hunger for recognition. If you receive a sincere compliment or what had done well, they not only feel appreciated inwardly, but also produced its own pride among family and friends. This will increase their appreciation to you as a leader. Cycle and will continue to maintain morale. Once a level of achievement awards are given, employees will act and try to maintain the image they have managed to create. (RFM4)
- When was the last time you thanked someone in the ranks of your staff?
- When did you last time someone with genuine praise for his success get the job done so well?
- Today is who you think should get credit?

The Power of Subconscious Mind

"The greatest waste is in the graveyard, because the dead
before you can optimize your full potential. "
- Andrew Ho --
Humans have an extraordinary power to create
masterpiece. The greatest power in man is present in
mind. But we rarely proves the power of the mind,
because we often get stuck in a comfort zone or a particular habit.
Forever, so can not find a better possibility
or a significant change of fortune.
Have therefore higher targets to stimulate
strength in the mind. For a new target or targets that
think it will move us to implement
action. Especially if the target is believed to be achieved, then
who we will be better prepared to face the challenge.

After the new measures are more constructive work
up repeatedly, then we have unwittingly many
doing important things we arrived at hinga new zone, where we
managed to achieve the desired targets. That's why said
that humans have great potential in the mind
conscious. Power of the subconscious mind that can be generated through the 2
ways, namely: autosuggestion and visualization.
Autosuggestion
Our desires are important information for the mind
subconscious. For recorded strong desire in the mind
aware can be a huge driving force that will move the
ourselves to do something extraordinary. Desire
very large and recorded in the subconscious mind that is
called autosuggestion.
Autosuggestion should be done with a sense of trust,
inner emotions, concentration is on
positive object, and repeatedly. Furthermore, the mind under
realized this is what will dictate the movements of our bodies. Strength
caused by the subconscious mind is very powerful for some
used to do bad or good. Sometimes intentions
to do things automatically come from the subconscious
conscious.
Autosuggestion will knock consciousness (heartknock). Because it is done
repetitive and routine, at one time those words will
penetrate the subconscious mind. Then the subconscious mind Itupun pump
spirit. That energy can be utilized to realize the dream alive
us.
Perhaps this autosuggestion activities will be considered strange by the people
other. But that's one way to transform themselves from within.
Get used to hearing a positive mindset and make a habit -
constructive habits. So do not hesitate to make the culture -
cultural potential, fostering optimism and creativity.
There were 6 (P) instructions in the conduct autosuggestion, that is;
- Positive: at the time of autosuggestion, think about these things
Just positive.
- Powerful: done with full confidence because can provide
the power to do something extraordinary.
- Precise: the desire to be achieved must be able
described, because the subconscious mind can only make
by category.
- Present Tense: in the current form of desire, not a desire on
past or future.
- Personal: make positive changes to yourself first
first.
Visualization
If we want something then the subconscious mind will
describe what is desirable. By way of visualizing
first dream, created a lot of work
spectacular in the world. Marcus Aurelius Antonius, an emperor
Ancient Roman saying, "A man's life is what his thought
make of it - human life is how they think about it. "
Something that humans will always visualized easily recorded in
subconscious. Then came the power of the mind, which
act as liaison between the soul with the body. So
tubuhpun react with all the previous potential
never used, in the form of creativity or action.
Visualize the dream allows the entire dream is achieved by
subconscious.
God Almighty grant equal potential to
humans. There is no harm in imagining how berpotensinya self
we are to achieve your dreams. Here are some steps in
visualize the dream, namely:
1. Defining a dream
Defining a dream means to limit or standard will
dreams to be achieved. Then, draw all the dreams
as if you have deservedly reached that dream. Although
These actions seem simple, but from the picture that dream
we will try to do something to make changes and
finally can reach goal.
2. Specify a target date
Desired dream come true according to predetermined targets,
because dream without a target date will only be a dream for a moment.
Dreams with deadlines will drive awareness for not
hesitate to make changes. So start from today, Be the
best, do the best, and then let God take care the rest - Be a
best, do your best, let God disposes. Potential
we have seemed very fond, if not optimized.
3. Repeatedly perform
Re doing our means to condition themselves more often
will remember our dreams. If you often remember, the dream slowly
It will be embedded in the subconscious mind. When the message is
accepted by the SCM (sub-conscience mind), then he will move
ourselves to create a decision or makes us more
creative.
If the dream is more often imagined it could
doubling the power of the subconscious mind. Imagination
repeated this will indirectly stimulate the illusion will
remarkable fact about our potential as human beings.
So we are going to strive to achieve dreams
visualized. So it went on the power of the subconscious mind
worked and raised, until major changes occur in
us at a time .*

Animal Instink

"Progress, success and enjoyment that we can bury our reach into the cemetery called 'comfort-zone'."
A few moments before the storm tsunami hit Aceh and some other parts of the world, a victim in Aceh who survived tells of a newspaper that he had suspected the birds flying white. "Bad," he said as he turned toward the hill. True, a few moments later the water overflowing in front of my eyes. Apparently the animals have good instincts to the signs of nature. In Sri Lanka, as reported on CNN, is also rare to find dead animals, even human corpses piled everywhere. "No Elephants are dead, not even a dead hare or rabbit. I think animals can sense disaster. They have a sixth sense. They know when things are happening, "said H.D. Ratnayake, Deputy Director of Sri Lanka's Wildlife Department, such as
quoted by CNN.
Others again with what was reported the New York Post - Online Edition. Some volunteers also an animal lover who moved after the storm tsunami found precisely the fact that many victims are pets in the home, rarely found in victims of wild animals. "Wild animals seemed to sense the massive tidal wave approaching, and escaped to higher ground. But many pets refused to abandon their human owners, and livestock was often penned or tied down and could not escape, "said an a animal-welfare experts said such dutilis New York Post - Online Edition.
Interestingly, some reluctant pet owners to leave the house and died with his master. On the one hand can we understand this as a form of 'loyalty', on the other hand, I expected this, it's pet "went numb" kind of instincts than animals surviving in the wilderness. Perhaps they had too long been a pet that can not move from the "comfort-zone" it.
In some cases, progress has been made to create a setup man to himself. Like the fate of pets, humans had finally died buried with "progress" that was created on the ground called "comfort-zone" is. Humans forget, that they must remain friends with nature, to keep honing instincts.

Re-Defining Success

What the most desirable of all human beings? Answer only one: success. Success has been a need for any human beings on this earth. That's why people take a variety of ways to earn. One of them by way of formal education. Unfortunately, success is not something that can easily be achieved every person. The wise man always said, there is no success without sacrifice. There is no success without sacrifice!
Although success has become an absolute requirement of every human being after all not everyone has the same view about the meaning of success. Some regard it as wealth. This group generally devote his life to accumulate wealth. They see money as a symbol of success.That's why they became greedy and very deify money. Money becomes absolutely necessary oxygen for their lives.
Unfortunately people like this empty life. They are generally quick suspicious of others. Very difficult for them to think positively of others. If anyone tries to close, they then thought, "Maybe these people want to take my property." A Grand Master of wisdom once said people who come first property will not find the true meaning of life. "For where the treasure is, there are also heart," the advice of the Grand Master.
I do not deny that the wealth-money-especially important for life. Who would not need the money? A religious institutions and social institutions also needed money for its operations.How can we establish a place of worship without the money that is
donations from other people? Money is important but money is not everything. Money is a means to make our lives more meaningful. Both for themselves and others.
In addition to wealth, there are also people who identify with the calm life success. This group does not like all kinds. Some even tend to be passive and distanced himself from public life.This attitude is a choice and we can not
said it was wrong.
There are also people who identify with the success of fame. They are willing to take the long road uphill for popularity. Sometimes the long journey is very tiring, so some choose to practice shortcut ways less commendable, such as (sorry) to sell themselves. It was no secret that not a singer or movie star who once slept with the producer. Not all of those who take this path. I personally know many artists who continue to maintain his honor rather than exchanged for popularity.
Understand that success is usually synonymous with fame attested only in the early stages.Gradually, with increasing popularity, many are certain things happened that eventually makes a public figure (public figures) must refuse to understand this. For example with the corresponding loss of privacy because every move was monitored constantly by the press. Sometimes I am very sorry for myself to see how the life of an artist "diobok-obok" excessively by the media. The media always say that what is presented to satisfy curiosity readers or viewers. May have a point. To be sure, it is clear that success is not synonymous with fame.
Furthermore there is also a success with mendefiniskan health. This definition of me asking questions sometimes reflective, is not there so many people with the most excellent health, but his life is empty? They did not work and try to make life more meaningful.
So, what is the proper definition of success? I do not pretend to call themselves as experts had success because I still learning and find what the meaning of a true success. To be sure, I've read a definition of success that seemed interesting enough to refer us together. According to renowned motivator, Zig Ziglar, a true success covers eight areas of life, namely: happiness, health, financial (wealth), security, quality of friendship (has many friends), good family relationships, expectations about the future, and peace of mind. That is why we often hear people say that the rich do not necessarily successful, but successful people must be rich materially and spiritually.
However, success is not a final destination; success is a journey. Success is not a destination; Success is a journey! Yes, success is a journey! If we had managed to achieve a dream, we're still must go on. End of the trip is when we close our eyes and return to His presence. Motivator and leadership expert, Dr. John C. Maxwell always insisted that the trip was a success we are always doing what we should do. Essentially, follow the journey of success with the right and respect the process not the end result. How do you think?
