Masking phlegmatic

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
With the name of Allah, the most gracious, the most merciful..

I would like to recommend read the Personality Plus by Florence Littauer (ISBN 1-85424-509-0).

The book brief 4 personality type;

Choleric: This is the commander-type. Cholerics are dominant, strong, decisive, stubborn and even arrogant.

Melancholy: This is the mental-type. Their typical behaviour involves thinking, assessing, making lists, evaluating the positives and negatives, and general analysis of facts.

Sanguine: This is the social-type. They enjoy fun, socialising, chatting, telling stories - and are fond of promising the world, because that's the friendly thing to do.

Phlegmatic: This is the flat-type. They are easy going, laid back, nonchalant, unexcitable and relaxed. Desiring a peaceful environment above all else.


Positive and negative for each traits are;

  • A Choleric is focused on getting things done, but can run rough-shod over others. They are decisive and stubborn.
  • A Melancholy is a highly talented person, they have brilliant ideas, although sometimes they can paralyze themselves with over-analysis. Lists and "doing things the right way" are characteristics of this personality type.
  • A Sanguine gets on well with people and can get others excited about issues, but cannot always be relied upon to get things done. They love interacting with others and play the role of the entertainer in group interactions. They have a tendency to over-promise and under-deliver.
  • A Phlegmatic is neutral - they tend not to actively upset people, but their indifference may frustrate people. They try not to make decisions, and generally go for the status quo. They care about people and harmony.

Sales + Sold !!

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
With the name of Allah, the most gracious, the most merciful..

I am clueless when come to close deals.. To me, everybody can sell, as long as the person has courage to speak and talent to sweeten words.. But to close a deal needs more than words, that needs skills and luck..

It happened twice to me, where I failed to close deal with very potential client.. I flop in the last stage, clueless and let the opportunity passed by.. I cant find the right word to hint closing the deal, I failed to read client's body language to determine is it a YES or NO.. True, a lot more to learn...

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

lesson learnt

Do not send freak text to ex that will hold back to past..
Before above situation happen, do not put much drama and crap into the relationship

By the way, love is enough if that is appreciated..

Happy...

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
With the name of Allah, the most gracious, the most merciful..

There were time I felt lost because I did not thank Him. I keep on sabotaging myself by comparing the life I had in Middle East to now, both financially and freedom. My doubt, unhappiness and unthankful had slowdown my pace.

Alhamdulillah, when I was in midst of losing myself, in doubt of my capability, God has enlightened me in many ways.. He showed me options when I was stuck, He killed my doubt by inspirational stories people shared, both strangers and friends and most of all, He allowed me to think and act rationally.

I prayed to him, and He had answered..

First answer:

I met group of my respectful dad's friends, professionals in Middle East. It was a common session where we talked about current nation's development from politics, to economy, sosio-culture and last business. And comparison between Malaysia and Middle East was discussed. There are pro and cons living in Malaysia and living abroad, Middle East as reported in Media is still in unrest environment after revolution movement in few Middle Eastern countries, depreciated Middle Eastern currency as compared to Malaysian Ringgit due to pegging to USD and higher unemployment and inflation rate. Malaysia otherwise is still considered home by them except to few politics development which I will not discuss any further.

At the end of the session, one of the them approached me and politely suggested me to explore golf tourism market, with fact Korean and Japense travel to Malaysia to play golf.

Second answer:

I had a break fast reunion at Al Rawsha with my fellow MMU friends, my first meeting after graduated in 2006. Apparently one of them own a travel agency and does inbound and outbound traffic. We had a casual talk about tourism, golf tourism, local industry trend and suggested to list properties in my hand with them.

I thank Allah..

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I realise I need positive energy from surrounding,
And it is not fair if I do not contribute but to take,
I try to write positively,
So we can share positive energy,
Be inspired, push forward and never look back

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

To be an entrepreneur,
I have to be strong,
Mentally and physically,

Insyaallah

Perception

I sent email to few friends, to seek their advice before I went this far.. And a friend said, "preparing for the day is stressful, you need to plan with your partner, her family and your family... My advice, do not loose your temper.."

I must say, I almost loose it yesterday.. But it is not about collaborating... just something happened and in my view the situation was not necessary...

Anyway, I managed my anger in good way.. Yeay! I've grown up! Hahaha

Reasons..

Selling of D'Kediaman business
Selling of Puteh Laundry business
Focus on homestay and do marketing to 7 countries
Were company's cash control game plan

Just about I'm signing the Puteh Laundry deal
The last message received was bad
It was not as expected
And right now Im panicking
Just about I have my strength, that happened and tear them apart

For that reason I need my ego
To be calm and collected
To remain resilient and tactful
I need a new game plan, and I need that fast

Maybe,
The Laundry needs me to turn around the business
Before was miss managed by business partner
The money didn't "reach" the bank account

Everything happened for a reason
I accept everything that had happened
And want to move on


ps/- no regrets, i will never regret anything i do, that's a promise, and that's an ego i would like to keep

Insyaallah

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I need a staff at the Laundry Shop..
Know anybody? =)

after a long..

Final goodbye in disguise

What are words is Addie’s favourite song and was shared by him when we were in Brunei, a song with meaningful lyrics, and personally for me the song is more like a reminder..

“Meant what you say, period!” Do not make ridiculous promises.. Hahaha

I made few promises when I was young, err younger… Promises made from young puppy love..
I was attached to the promises made for almost 2 years before I was freed couple days ago..
I dreamed a final goodbye, both of us smiled and I know from there we had let go off everything..

She was beautiful on her wedding day, congrates and pray for your happiness..
I downloaded and play the song whenever possible, in the car by Bluetooth and on laptop streaming on youtube..

Ps/- attended the wedding, Addie said I played cool.. =)

I should

I know, I should not say anything bad about my country publicly, neither me nor the people get the advantage doing that.. The top people and outsiders will just look and laugh.. "Pity people.." they said..

But, people's voice should need to reach them.. I think*

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++


yeah,
we finally met..
=)

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Am preparing for borneo trip, that if the next week trip confirm..

heart of a lion, a tough fighter?

I watched as Westeners launched their air strike to Libya soil..

"No ground troop.." said the big man...

ps/- What different made to Libya from the attack, is the storyline remix of war in Iraq with different cast..

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I hate to have to work with lawyer firms..
They are used to argue on everything, even the small things...

Lawyer: Kita dah hantar dan ikut alamat di letter offer....
Me: Kalau dah salah tu hantarlah lagi sekali, end of the day, I tak dapat document tu... Perlu argue?
Lawyer: Ok

Dearest lawyers,

This is not a court...
Please be practical... =)

Jangan bilang tidak...

Location: NZ KLCC

I was introduced to a club entertainer by a friend.. She is from an ex soviet country, pretty I can say and her body language is very.... "naughty"

But, but... let us not judge her from her job... cos personally i think she is a good person.. she knows what she is doing is wrong BUT, her hard life in her country somehow forced her to do anything...

Given choice, i know she will choose different path.. Who would not, aite?

ps- she wore armani top and guess jeans that night

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

first time, first time

i had my first tutifrutti and it was deliciously fattening... this is how my first tutifrutti looks like


Guess how much i spent for below CK Jeans? It cost me MYR 10.. My first bundle experience was a lucky one... CK Jeans baby.. =)


I can say, the wedding was the biggest (in term of number of friends who came) and the first picture taken on stage at the pelamin in front of hundred guests... Hahaha sanguine will always be sanguine... =)

From colleague

I had dinner with a former colleague, a short meeting while she was transiting in KLIA from Denpasar (DPS) to Joburg (JNB)... A short short catch up, and we maximised that with GOSSIP and update...

She was one of many people I abused during my time in Dubai.. She was one of many people who did not take anything personal, who did not judge me as young comer to the industry, and we support each other.. especially on the report writing and follow ups.. To Marika, it feels wonderful to know a kind and positive person like you.. =)

I'll be hosting two friends from Dubai this coming weekend.. This is their first time in Kuala Lumpur and Im excited to show them around, a city tour to our prestigious landmark, a makan-makan time for our delicious food, and extend the Malaysian Hospitality from our friendliness..

ps- It turns out friendship still exists in working environment..
ps - South Africa famous product is the Rooibos Tea... http://www.rooibostea.com/
ps - I had tried the famous Appletizer, its like sparkling apple juice... slurp slurp

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

At time I wished, we can start all over again.. Like the first time we knew each other name, and the first time when I saw you smile..
At time I wished I saw the sign, that you needed me besides, and you cried in your sleep missing me..
At time I wished, I did not break your heart, I did not start hoping, and I did not say to you that I like you, and you look cute in that jacket..
But, most of the time, when that moment came to regret everything.. I knew you are happy with your man, the one who always understands you and be by your side..

Blue roses, often portrayed in literature and art as a symbol of love and prosperity to those who seek it, do not exist within nature, due to genetic limitations being imposed upon natural variance. Traditionally, white roses have been dyed blue to produce a blue appearance; in 2004, researchers have used genetic modification to create blue pigmented roses. A blue rose is traditionally a flower of the genus Rosa (family Rosaceae) that presents blue-to-violet pigmentation and also the Morganus Clarke sunflower seed disposition, instead of the more common red or white variety.[citation needed]


I was asked "What is the meaning of BLUE ROSE..."

Tentang tulisan ini, bukan sejujurnya yang di rasa
Mungkin ada yang terlihat, manusia melakukannya,
Cuma dari jauh perhati, tidakkan mahu menjaga kain di jemuran orang
Apa pelikkah manusia sekarang,
Nyatanya, bila kertas menjadi tuan dunia..

Antara hormat atau kegilaan,
Kuasa di tangan di cengkam hebat
Nahhh, muka kamu di sana sini
Di peti televisen mendapat anugerah angkara
Di hati surat khabar kononnya mempermudah urusan negara
Aku bertanya,
Siapakah kamu?

Hati-hati ya
Teluk minyak sudah bergelora
Apinya membara membawa perubahan..

Hati-hati ya
