an analogy..

let me choose basketball and football for this analogy

basketball:

just imagine.. u came to a new court.. alone.. u have no idea how they play.. they asked u to join them.. u agreed..
the game begins.. u as a point/shooting guard.. felt a bit weird not handling the ball..dont know where to run.. they dont know when to pass.. and so on..but u decided to play shooting guard on that day.. u communicate with the point guard n thing more or less sorted itself..

football:
now imagine.. a new pitch.. totally different style of play..u r a winger.. n they play like chelsea.. how awkward can that be?? but again.. u adjusted.. playing more like a forward.. kind of funny playing football without crossing it..

the common factor for both situation is that u can adjust. why? coz u know the games very well..

now imagine.. the 'adjusting skill is not there'
u constantly out of position.. ur passes r all wrong..
u r not as effective as u know u r capable of..
n feeling u r more of a liability than an asset..
most frustrating is ur team mates threw their hands up in frustration..
unpleasent

here's a catch: u cannot leave the pitch/court/team..
what would u do??

i wish i can be like him (i'm trying)

he is no other than the one and only rasulullah SAW.
he is THE MAN i look up to..
certainly honoured to be named after him..
the time has come for me to live up to the name..
a tall order to say the least..
but working towards it is a must..
he was a great leader
a great Muslim
a great man
a great friend
a great husband
a great father
a great imam.

more than that, he was described by a walking Quran..
Islam runs through his veins and arteries..
he lived it..
and my pledge is to continue that legacy..
i know it is not going to be easy..
but i must try..

i just hope that the world will except my flaws in trying to be him..
i wont stop!!
insyaallah.. (keeping hopes high)

HOPE

"Setiap usaha kita dinilai oleh Allah. Allah tidak menilai hasilnya, tapi Allah melihat setiap langkah kita menuju ke arah kebaikan itu. Sebagaimana firman Allah 'Dan orang yang berusaha dengan bersungguh-sungguh kerana memenuhi kehendak Kami, sesungguhnya Kami pimpin mereka ke jalan-jalan Kami (yang menjadikan mereka gembira dan beroleh keredhaan) dan sesungguhnya (pertolongan dan bantuan) Allah berserta orang yang berusaha memperbaiki amalannya,'.
Sememangnya susah untuk melakukan sesuatu yang baik, sebab itu perlunya istiqamah,"

YOU WILL FALL.. JUST GET BACK UP.. AND YOU WILL FALL AGAIN.. GET BACK UP AGAIN..
STAY STRONG.. STAY HOPEFUL..

*reminding myself and whoever choose to be reminded

februari

FEBUARI
Berfikiran abstrak Sukakan benda yang reality danabstrak Intelligent, bijak dan genius Berpesonaliti yang mudah berubah Mudah menawan orang lain Agak pendiam, pemalu dan rendah diri Jujur dan setia pada segalanya Keras hati untuk mencapai matlamat Tidak suka dikongkong Mudah memberontak apabila dikongkong Suka kegiatan yang lasak Emosinya mudah terluka dan sangat sensitif Mudah mempamerkan marahnya Tidak suka benda yang remeh-temeh Suka berkawan tapi kurang mempamerkannya Sangat berani dan suka memberontak Bercita-cita tinggi dan suka berangan-angan dan ada harapan untuk merealisasikan impiannya Pemerhatian yang tajam Suka hiburan dan sukan Suka benda yang bersifat seni Sangat romantik pada dalaman tetapi tidak pada luaran Berkecenderungan pada benda yang tahyul Amat mudah dan boleh menjadi terlalu boros Belajar untuk mempamerkan emosi.

*sume btl kecuali bab tahyul tu..

it could have been worse

i took quite a long walk with my mom from the bus station in front of carrefour subang jaya to SS15 to submit some documents..

during the walk, i reflects back on the difficulties i faced for the past 16+ months..
it was tough. very tough. i was complaining about it actually.

then, me and my mom saw a guy. he got weak knees n have to walk with a supporter. HOW KUFUR I WAS! at least i still can walk normally. can still run..

astagrfirullahal azim..

it could have been worse for me.. so i should be thankful with all i have..
alhamdulillah.. syukran ya Allah..

make good use of your brain

i was playing futsal late last night. well, we played on an abandoned tennis court with a cone at each end as the goal. hit the cone and you score. so some might want to call it street soccer.. never mind that.. i'm not going to write about the game..

we played using the 'kings stay' rule.. during the time when my team was not on the court, i walked around the court to keep my leg warm.. then i saw a couple just outside the court.. 'nothing' was wrong besides the fact that it was dark there.. then another girl came..

i ignored them as it was my team's turn to play..

it was about quarter to midnight when almost all the teams decided to leave the court..
after leaving the court.. they join the couple and the girl that i saw before..
can you imagine that?
its about 9 guys. and 2 girls. in the dark!
just think about risk of the girls getting raped by those guys for a sec.

i'm not saying that those guys are bad boys..

but girls.. please.. use your brain.. its dangerous.. no matter who the guys are..

love yourselves.. please..

the law of garbage truck

i got this story from one of my classmate.. i just want to share it..

How often do you let other people’s nonsense change your mood? Do you let a bad driver, rude waiter, curt boss, or an insensitive employee ruin your day? Unless you’re the Terminator, you’re probably set back on your heels. However, the mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus on what’s important in your life.

Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson. And I learned it in the back of a New York City taxi cab. Here’s what happened.

I hopped in a taxi, and we took off for Grand Central Station. We were driving in the right lane when all of a sudden, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, the car skidded, the tires squealed, and at the very last moment our car stopped just one inch from the other car’s back-end.

I couldn’t believe it. But then I couldn’t believe what happened next. The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, whipped his head around and he started yelling bad words at us. How do I know? Ask any New Yorker, some words in New York come with a special face. And he even threw in a one finger salute! I couldn’t believe it!

But then here’s what really blew me away. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was friendly. So, I said, “Why did you just do that!? This guy could have killed us!” And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call, “The Law of the Garbage Truck™.” He said:

Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they look for a place to dump it. And if you let them, they’ll dump it on you.

So when someone wants to dump on you, don’t take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Believe me. You’ll be happier.

So I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the street? It was then that I said, “I don’t want their garbage and I’m not going to spread it anymore.”

I began to see Garbage Trucks. Like in the movie “The Sixth Sense,” the little boy said, “I see Dead People.” Well now “I see Garbage Trucks.” I see the load they’re carrying. I see them coming to dump it. And like my taxi driver, I don’t take it personally; I just smile, wave, wish them well, and I move on.

One of my favorite football players of all time was Walter Payton. Every day on the football field, after being tackled, he would jump up as quickly as he hit the ground. He never dwelled on a hit. Payton was ready to make the next play his best. Over the years the best players from around the world in every sport have played this way: Tiger Woods, Nadia Comaneci, Muhammad Ali, Bjorn Borg, Chris Evert, Michael Jordan, Jackie Robinson, and Pele are just some of those players. And the most inspiring leaders have lived this way: Nelson Mandela, Mother Theresa, Ghandi, and Martin Luther King.

See, Roy Baumeister, a psychology researcher from the University of Florida, found in his extensive research that you remember bad things more often than good things in your life. You store the bad memories more easily, and you recall them more frequently.

So the odds are against you when a Garbage Truck comes your way. But when you follow The Law of the Garbage Truck™, you take back control of your life. You make room for the good by letting go of the bad.

The best leaders know that they have to be ready for their next meeting. The best sales people know that they have to be ready for their next client. And the best parents know that they have to be ready to welcome their children home from school with hugs and kisses, no matter how many garbage trucks they might have faced that day. All of us know that we have to be fully present, and at our best for the people we care about.

The bottom line is that successful people do not let Garbage Trucks take over their life.

What about you? What would happen in your life, starting today, if you let more garbage trucks pass you by?

Here’s my bet: You’ll be happier.

LOVE THE PEOPLE WHO TREAT U WELL.. AND WISH THOSE WHO DON'T TO DO WELL

i learned this on a football pitch

it was just an ordinary evening.. a huge difference is the players: 2 notorious players came to tag along.. no one expect it to be a good game.. those 2 are brilliant player.. but well known for their behaviors.. there's no need to mention about those.. i said to myself 'it won't be a fun game today with these 2 on the pitch' straight to the point,this is what I've learned: NEVER EVER CONCLUDE ABOUT ANYONE AFTER SEEING JUST 1 THING.. some of yall might prefer ' never judge a book by its cover'

yea its true they are not the type of boys that you would call good.. but playing wit them is a joy.. but that joy does not come easy.. as they do not play with the style i prefer.. what i did was TRIED TO UNDERSTAND THEM.. what kind of passes the will play.. what kind of passes they want..

then i played those passes.. i made myself available for their kind of passes.. although i does not feel comfortable doing it.. but it worked.. goals was scored.. he got the passes he wants.. although i don't get my type of passes, but at least i was not ignored.. and even when i did a few bad call, they forgive me.. coz they have reason to..

now just think what would happen if i did not tolerate?

i make mistakes too

the title tells how imperfect i am.. sumtime it frustrates me.. badly.. not the fact that i'm not perfect, but the fact that i replicate the same imperfections time n time again.. feel like a big looser coz after all the rahmat from god is re payed by mistakes n imperfections.. but 'never ever give up on allah's rahmat'.. so i guess that the best that should be done.. keep hoping.. keep praying.. keep trying..
