It’s funny how little things you say, small things you do, or the things that you don’t do, can cause a big hate on you.. Even without you knowing. And in most cases, other people are the ones that got hurt, not yourself.

be very careful with your mouth, extra careful with your actions, and choose wisely for things that you won’t/don’t/can’t do.

Beberapa hari yang lalu gw sempet denger iklan yang kocak banget di radio tentang kebebasan berbicara. Ceritanya tu jadi ada bawahan yang dipanggil oleh atasannya untuk mengutarakan uneg2nya tanpa disensor karena bawahan tersebut ingin mengundurkan diri, trus kocaknya lagi, pas lagi ngomong disensor dengan peep peep gt (itu bunyinya maxudnya) sampe 3 kali, trus dia nanya: “Lho.. katanya bebas bicara”.

Trus gw sebenernya bingung sebenernya itu iklan apa wakakak.

Well anyway, I believe in the freedom of speech, bahwa semua orang berhak untuk mengutarakan pendapatnya dengan cara yang sehat dan sesuai aturan. Seperti misalkan demo (demo juga kan a form of speech) atau yang simple aja la kayak nulis di blog ini. Yang gw ga suka adalah ketika sudah mulai destruktif dan menjurus ke SARA yang bersifat negatif. Tapi yah, berhubung semuanya relatif jadi agak2 susah juga si ngukurnya..

Moreover, karena pendapat itu bisa datang dari berbagai macam orang, maka pasti penanggapan orang juga pastinya bisa sangat berbeda, bahkan bertolak belakang walaupun membahas masalah yang sama. Which would cause problems like misunderstanding and conflict of interest.

Mengingat dan menimbang kalo pendapat tu kadang tidak bisa dinilai benar atau salah (especially when discussing something undone, like your future) maka kesalahpahaman bisa melenceng menjadi sangat jauh, apalagi kalo keseringan berasumsi. Just remember one thing, Opinion is not a Fact! karena opini itu relatif, fakta itu absolut (kecuali faktanya salah ehehehe).

Dari kesalahpahaman seperti itu, timbullah konflik, dan bisa aja kemungkinan jadi panjang, banyak yang sakit hati, banyak yang dirugikan, dikit yang diuntungkan.. But hey! that’s life. Makanya kalo kata Pak Stef si, jangan asumsi dan jangan sok tau, so we could at least minimize the damage of communication.

So as I have said in the above, I believe in the freedom of speech. Kalo pendapat gw tidak disukai ya bukan berarti kalo gw salah, dan kalo gw ga suka pendapat orang juga bukan berarti gw bener. Tapi kalo misalkan ada yang tidak suka pendapat gw trus memaksakan pendapatnya sendiri ke gw padahal itu bertentangan, nah! itu baru salah!

PS:
Orang pintar akan membalas argumen dengan argumen lain bila pendapatnya digugat
Orang bodoh akan marah2 dan bertindak kasar…

This goes for all bikers yang kl nyerempet ato tabrakan cuman bisa marah2 dan bilang: “Ini kan Jakarta Bung!”. Bleh…

Berhubung banyak spam ke blog gw dan gw lagi ga sempet ngurusinnya. Jadi semua comment ke sini bakal tertutup ke semua yang udah pernah commment aja. Mungkin nanti gw bakal pasang some anti-spam or sumthin tapi sekarang lagi ga ada waktu.

Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by the monarch of a
neighbouring kingdom. The monarch could have killed him but was moved
by Arthur’s youth and ideals. So, the monarch offered him his freedom,
as long as he could answer a very difficult question. Arthur would
have a year to figure out the answer and, if after a year, he still
had no answer, he would be put to death.

I could never really understand why all of my previous relationship ends at quite a short time, 6 months to the top if I remember correctly. It is not because they’re not pretty enough, smart enough, or understanding enough to sum it up, and I don’t think it’s a not-my-type matter either because all of them didn’t really have similar features except for their gender of course.

REMEMBER, YOUR MENTAL LIMITATIONS ARE OF YOUR OWN MAKING

For years, athletes attempted to run a mile in four minutes but it seemed to be a barrier that no one could overcome. Then on May 6, 1954, a British runner named Roger Gilbert Bannister ran a mile in 3:59.4 minutes to establish a world record. Soon, afterward, other runners broke Bannister’s record. Too often, we accept convetional wisdom as fact. Make sure you set your goals high enough. Don’t settle for less because of limitations you place upon yourself. Most of us never really reach the level of achievement of which we are capable because we don’t challenge ourselves to do so. Perhaps Rovert Browning said it best: ” A man’s reach should exceed his grasp, / Or what’s a heaven for?

The Secret To A Super Sales Career Sell anything, to anyone! The key to making more sales!
———————————

What does it take to climb to the top in sales? Why do some sales people make several times more sales than the others? What is the secret that all top sales people share?

The Guinness Book of World Records has declared that Joe Girard is, “The World’s Greatest Salesman.”

During his amazing career selling cars, Joe, for twelve straight years, sold more automobiles than any other salesperson. Period. In fact, as an individual, Joe sold more cars than most dealerships sell in total, and all of them at retail!

Coming from difficult and humble beginnings, Joe had been forced out of high school and fired from more than forty jobs!

But in 1949 things began to get better. Joe met a man who “took him under his wing”, teaching him how to be a successful building contractor. Joe became pretty successful, so in 1961 he contracted to construct several private homes.

Unfortunately, he had made the mistake of accepting the word of a real estate speculator that told him the area was to have a sewer system installed. Instead of checking things, Joe took the man’s word for it.

He soon found out it just wasn’t true. Individual septic tanks had to be installed for each house, which meant the homes became greatly de-valued.

As a result of the error, Joe lost his business. He found himself with no job, no savings, and $60,000 in debt. Oh, and it was also the Christmas season.

To make things even worse, on a cold day in January, Joe’s wife June tearfully told him there was no food in the house and the kids were begging for something to eat.

On that day, Joe Girard found himself at the rock bottom of the barrel.

Joe had a choice: Either see his kids starve or go out and find a job, any job! After begging and pleading with the manager of a local automobile dealership to hire him, the manager finally gave in and provided Joe with a small desk at the very back of the showroom.

Just before closing time that day, Joe’s first customer walked in. He said to himself, “There’s no way this guy is getting out of here without buying a car from me.”

Joe remembered that his hungry kids were at home, then he looked at the customer and saw… a bag of groceries!

Within a month, Joe became so successful at selling automobiles that the manager fired him! He was simply too aggressive and the other salesmen were very upset.

But Joe had finally found his calling, and it wasn’t very long at all before another dealership hired him, where he worked until he retired in 1978.

Recalling that very first sale, and explaining what made him “The World’s Greatest Salesman”, Joe says this:

“Want. My want. That was all I knew. And that want was enough to drive me to say and do enough of the right things to sell that customer a car. I am not saying that that’s all there is to it, then or now, but that is most of it.”

“If you want, and know what you want, you will have most of the tools you need to be a successful salesman. I mean that. Nobody can be a successful salesman without wanting. Wanting something very much. And the more you want, the more you drive yourself to do what it takes to sell.”

“Once I visualized that first customer as a bag of groceries to take home to my family, he was sold, whether he knew it or not.”

We might not ever become the world’s greatest in what we do, but we can become the best we can possibly be at it. It all starts, continues, and ends with one simple word: DESIRE.
