But what I really to share is the Top 5 reason why people blogging.It’s just my personal opinion and some of them based on my experiences.

1. Money

Believe it or not, lots of people blog not because of the popular trends that exist many years ago before there was video blogging (Youtube),social media (Friendster,Myspace and now Facebook) and micro blogging (Tweeter). I remember many years ago when blogging become a phenomenon, there’s a lot of free blogging sites such as Blogger,Wordpress,Livejournal and Blogdrive (just to name a few) available for users, many people including teenagers sign up for this account and eventually,writing a story about the life or a diary of their everyday life become a new hobby to everyone.
Things turn out to a huge different when Google bought Blogger, and become the turning point where Adsense, the world most famous making-money-online become successful and change at least 1 ordinary man a day to earn steady figures between USD100-USD300 a week, all around the world.
I’ll will writes more about autoblogging and other Black Hat tricks that people use in blogging, just for the sake of making money.

2.Branding

Who can deny the power of branding? Ask the fashion expert. What kind of shit is Burberry? Sounds like Burrrp-sounds-of-eating-the-whole-berry-farm. But its worth a thousand dollar for a piece of boxers.Yeah right, like you can attract a girl with the boxer even if you have needle d***.Okay enough with the nonsense.The power of blog is like a power of writing a press release. How often do people read an articles or give comments about the newest Burberry perfume. With all the details about what matches the new series of product with current trends,the unique bottle design,the smells and everything else until we scroll down and suddenly get heart fainted with the sales price.The existence of any writings about this new product is important as it can help the brand to stay in the market.In what we called ‘mind-trick’, people has a limit memory recall on certain things that is not an everyday routine (Exception if you need to wear perfume almost everyday and evertime), so whenever this Burberry articles is found either purposely or accidently,it will gave some visual effects that stays under your subconsious mind.The more of this type of articles is found everywhere,the more percentage of people around the world will have it planted in their brain and whenever small talk occurs about such topics, Burberry will suddenly comes out from their mouth.The bottomline is, this blogging thing will help keeps the brand circling around bloggers and readers, just like in real life where the same thing is actually happen,without our knowing.But apart from the real world, we actually got 2 kind of world talking about the brand.Yes, the cyber world.Not only that we have 2 world with different people, internet promise us that the articles is available 24 hours a day,anytime and anywhere.It can be found using search engine at anytime from readers around the world.Unlike publications which is limited to certain parts of the world, any blogs or even discusssion about such brands is borderless in information superhighway.Who can deny the most powerful word of the world, it’s FREE. Yes, go figure yourself and you know that for every advertising personnel in this life, God has answered their prayer.

Woops, I gotta chow.Need to get some sleep.
I forgot to edit this post, he next 3 reason will be added in my next post.

Commenting in somebody’s blog is proven to be one of the most effective method that works if you’re talking about getting more and more organic SEO traffic.Why? Well, with the development of anti-spam scripts in most of the comment post, people surely know that we’re not talking about some kind of toyol going out in the cyber world typing comments and leave his master’s links in order to get attention from readers.This is the real thing.We know that the real human who actually type his thoughts about such topics and if it can be something to think of,readers tend to have some curiousity about you and start to click the hyperlinks pointing to your site, which happens to let them gain more info about him or about such topics or ‘wise man says’. What do you expect? It’s a cyber world !

Here’s the 5 reasons why I comment on different blogs

1. I Get Traffic Back to My Blog – Commenting on different blogs is still the number one way to get traffic back to your blog. I have got most of my traffic from commenting on other blogs. I tend to use the name of my blog instead of my real name so that people already know what my blog is about.
2. I Get to Build My Brand – You can build your brand by commenting on blogs. Trust me, there are many people that just go through and read the different comments just like people do on You Tube. What you write is what a lot of people will remember you by just like the blog posts on your blog. So think before you comment.
3. Content Ideas – Usually you have to read the post before you can comment. Reading different posts on different blogs can give you a whole bunch of ideas for content. This has really helped me a lot so I have good ideas of things I can talk about to help bloggers. I know I can build a good blog since I have over 20,000 subscribers on two different blogs, but thinking of different things bloggers want help with is the hardest part.
4. More Subscribers – If your comments drive traffic to your blog then most likely the people have liked what you are saying and could potentially subscribe to your blog. I have got most of my subscribers coming from different blogs after looking at my statistics.
5. Becoming a Better Writer- Like I said above, you usually have to read the post before you can comment. Reading allows you to become a better writer if you think so or not. The more you read, the more ways you will begin to write articles.

Based on my explanation above, you might have feelings that I was right all the way about what I think of the strong benefits that good PR can give to us.The question is – Why should PR not be included in economic value? To explain more, Public Relation isn’t something that might be calculated in financial budget as something that can give profit in return.It’s not like Marketing department which has strong projection about what will the expected result can be achieved if certain campaign or method is being actioned within the timeframe.It’s also not like Human Resources, where companies spend a certain budget to advertise the employment and also employee training – both has calculated profit that can be measure through yearly employee evaluation review.I think I do no have to explain about Advertising budget, which is so common these days that most people even outsides from management skills level has a certain degree of understand how  good advertising will lead to better reception of product to the public.Do you know that in business rules, most company believes that advertising comes first after the quality of product ?

I can’t believe some people still consider that PR is worth included in Miscellaneous fees.

But after a day of exciting learning experiences, i feel something strange. It’s like, the more I try to run and chasing my dream, the more I feel that my destiny is something that was really near with me. Something that I should’ve known before. I wonder why FINAS was so closed to my primary schools,my secondary schools and even my home.I wonder why is it normal for me to see a TV drama or film production is doing their outdoor work, which I very often encounter such things. I remember there was TV production called ‘Jangan Ketawa’ did one of their episodes in my school when I was 11 years old.Suddenly it coming back to my mind in last 2 year, when my previous employer RHB Bank was having a annual dinner for my department in Royale Bintang, I was  the “Choosen One” to be on the stage performing spontaneous Spidey costume tricks, with the host at that night whose name is Dee, which happens to be one of the actor that starred in Jangan Ketawa.Damn, I was wearing a black tuxedo that night and he happens to joke around by showing his lust to a boy like me.That was in front of more than 100 crowd of my colleagues that knew me with my 5 years of unforgettable working experience there. I purposely avoiding any small talk that would makes him flash back all those moments in schools while talking to him.  That was a hundred of my objections of chances to be in anything that related with acting,filming or anything that related with broadcasting business.No, it’s not that I hate this business. I got so many friends,cousins and former schoolmates that involved in this and it’s like the TV drama and film are small for me, I can tell more than 70 % of the places that this film/TV production was shooting nearby places that are my stomping ground.Maybe it’s was me, who thought that having so much priorities and biggger than any fortune in front of myself, all the way before. But I didn;t realized so much things that were noted in Malaysia local fim scene history was happened around this particular area.

Ulu Klang,Setapak and Gombak, where the FINAS was built, P. Ramlee was lived (Taman P.Ramlee in Setapak as well as P.Ramlee Memorial Library) and other places which think you should be able to noticed, were all of my places where I grew up.But No, it’s not something that I proud of. I shall say I am the most stupid person by choosing things that were supposed to be “choose” at first place. But being stupid or the most stupid is not the issue.Is not what the decision that determine your stupdiness, but what are the output and outcomes, is the most important thing.But I also believed the theory applies to different things with different situation that must be consider. Procedures is better than results. Guess what? I got that from Winter Sonata, a love story from Korea. Yes, the love story is interesting but I don’t follow that much..And don’t even start with me! Heheh…just kidding. But from that you get the ideas of this – People see things that they only want to see as much as what they want to hear. Hmnnnn…. just imagine how TV can gave impact so much with different kind of ideas,philosophies and even your decision in life.

Take Care..

Want to be a genius? Just practise

WHAT do The Beatles, Warren Buffett, David Beckham, Mokhtar Dahari and Bill Gates have in common? They’re all famous, they’re all gifted, and they’re all geniuses in their own realms. More importantly, they have all reached the top by doing one thing – they poured their hearts and souls, their blood, sweat and tears, into achieving “perfection” through lots of practice.

Thomas Alva Edison once said, “Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.” Based on their research, Anders Ericsson and a team of scientists claim to know just how much perspiration is required to become a genius – apparently 10 years or 10,000 hours.

Ericsson writes, “A lot of people believe there are some inherent limits they were born with. But there is surprisingly little hard evidence that anyone could attain any kind of exceptional performance without spending a lot of time perfecting it.”

In his book Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell reinforces this point with evidence that geniuses simply become great through practice.

The Beatles remain the best-selling musical group of all time, but this success did not come overnight. Gladwell explains that the Beatles became so good because they played for hours and hours in the German underground scene in Hamburg, receiving little money or recognition.

According to John Lennon, they played eight hours per night, seven nights a week for 270 nights. In comparison, most bands of their time (and probably even now!) only performed one-hour sessions every week.

Mokhtar Dahari always pushed us to the limit during our training sessions.

Fortunately for the Fab Four, by the time they were ‘discovered’, they had performed an estimated of 1,200 times! Most bands today don’t even perform that many times in their entire careers. These 1,200 live practice performances really was the differentiator.

Buffett is widely recognised as the world’s greatest investor. But his success is the result of sheer discipline, hard work and lots of practice. He practised the discipline of “mental strategies” of investment for years and years, and became an expert in investments over time.

Beckham is no different. Famed for his lethal free kicks, he wasn’t born with those skills. He practised free kicks diligently to impress his dad at first and developed it into his trademark.

Said his former boss, Sir Alex Ferguson, the Manchester United manager, “He practised with a discipline to achieve an accuracy that other players wouldn’t care about.” After the usual practice session, Beckham would stay back and continue practising and practising – 500 free kicks a day, 180,000 free kicks a year.

That effort soon translated into an ability and talent that we called genius.

We know that Gates, a Harvard dropout, is among the world’s richest men because of his Microsoft fortune. But there is more to his story than meets the eye.

For starters, he went to an elite high school, with access to a computer. This was back in the 1960s, when many universities didn’t even have computers. This allowed him to do real-time programming as a 14-year-old.

Obsessed, he programmed eight hours a day, seven days a week. He skipped athletics, sneaked out after bedtime, hacked passwords, and told the occasional lie, just so that he could have more hours of programming. By the time he dropped out of college, he had 10,000 programming hours under his belt.

Think of teenagers who are computer whiz-kids. How do they become experts? With their short attention span, how do they learn? Observe them for a day and you will see them surfing the Internet, playing video games, and sharing everything they learn on blogs and YouTube.

Considering the hours they spend daily on the computer, it’s no wonder that they are so good with all things digital. Clearly, there is a correlation between time and expertise.

Greatness is only achieved through hard, painful, and demanding practice. “It can take 10 years or 10,000 hours of extensive practice to excel in anything,” says George Kohlrieser, the head of leadership at business school IMD.

“Mozart was six when he started composing, but his world-class compositions started at age 21.” Kohlrieser believes that talent and luck are important, but it is practice that makes the difference between being good and being great. So what does this all mean? We live in a world where we expect everything to be instantaneous. Maggi Mee, instant coffee, instant profits, and we even produce leaders by using the 1-Minute Manager manual.

Yet, to be truly exceptional and great, we need to put in the time. We expect world-class football players in Malaysia, and yet we start formal football training for kids at age 12, when teams like Everton start developing their Wayne Rooneys at age 4. And we wonder why we don’t see football geniuses?

There are no shortcuts. We can conclude likewise on leadership. Nobody becomes a great leader without working at it. To develop leaders, we need to provide our future leaders with early exposure and practice to leadership, possibly even in their schooling years. Why aren’t there leadership clubs in our schools that enable our kids to practice leadership?

There is a belief that if you’re good at something, it should be effortless. That unfortunately is baseless. To become a great leader, you need to notch up hours of practise. Even Jack Welch spent 10 years as CEO of General Electric, practising and practising before he finally got it right.

If you do the math, just three hours a day of practice for 10 years makes you an expert.

Just one problem: How do you practice business? Many elements of business, in fact, are directly practicable. Presenting, negotiating, delivering evaluations, deciphering financial statements – you can practise them all. And even the softer pieces of management, such as giving feedback on performance, coaching your reports and hiring the right people can all be practised.

I played football under the great Mokhtar Dahari. He was an intense coach, always pushing us to the limit during our training sessions. One day I asked him about the goal he scored against England. He replied, “I guess I was just lucky.” Then he said, “But, Roshan, you make your own luck. The more you practise, the luckier you get. So stop asking questions and keep practising.” I took his advice and before long, I broke into the state team.

Roberto Galeotti, president of Scoula Superiore, once said, “Genius is NOT reserved for the special few”. Then again, practice is never easy. If achieving great performance was so easy, it wouldn’t be rare. So, you want to be brilliant or a genius, just practice la. Hopefully, you have 10,000 hours to spare!

           It’s been a 5 years now since he has subscript to Metastock, a software programme that compiles all data from as long as 10 years back of the company daily,monthly and yearly shares perfomance chart.Now I get the ideas why technical analysis can get so exciting – by distributing a single line from the graph peakand analyze the moving of it, you can determine when will the shares will goes in maximum before its going down in a few month like you wish you should’ve sell it earlier before the your share prices can fall almost 80 % of your buying prices.It’s all a risk management skills and some novice will have to get a remisier to consult them before moving with any decisions.Some people might think it’s nonesense – why do invest in shares after knowing all thsese ridiculous fact?.

         Put it this way, a car driver has a same lesson taught in all over the world. Reds means stop,green means it’s a right to move on. All remisiers,stockholders,investment firms and any related people learns the same things and act upon it. The moving averages of the shares market perfomance graph is being watched by millions of people and when the red lights is flashing out after a few moment of alert, everyone will move to the same decisions.Other things that definitely take into consideration is rumours or newsflash about anything which consider positive or negative feedback from the current situation.To conclude it, the same colors of traffic lights and its basic rules were implemented everywhere and considered a global knowledge and thus, turns out to be a simultanoues reaction by any person at his different places at any time. In shares markets, the whole things is surprisingly, the same concept with the traffics lights lesson.

        Why you should read further? If you get what I mean, the drops of shares price of highly anticipated NYSE stock exchange like Microsoft,ExxonMobil,Citibank and etc, should gaves us the ideas of putting a few of our money for investment. Why? Just like the nature calls, everything’s down must go up. if it’s not in near or short moment to get back the profit, it must be rises and just like any oher investment, it takes time to tango.

       To strenghten my points there, please surf to this link Daily Wealth. Maybe this is the right time to have some faith on this share markets since they were not many times like now happens and this is where the bg boys got to earn their big bucks by selling their shares and gaining profits 5th time more than doing conventional business or your employee fund contribution. How often wars can happen and the big boys got the big cash just trading the Kuwait dinar into foreign exchange. Hmnnn… it’s tax free. Better think about it    I might get enough money to start a life with my wife to be… Stop, i need to find girl first…
