Value of 1 minute

"It is a team game dang it!"

During my board game workshop on Saturday. The students at Cyberjaya MMU just can't resist the temptation of firing their friends. After 45 minutes, out of 25 students only 1 student achieve the secret mission.LOL!

After 90 minutes, I'm glad that one table achieved all secret missions.

The session on Sunday was better.
4 teams actually have the hope to achieve their secret mission.
1st team achieved the secret mission after 75 minutes.
The 2nd team achieved it after 76 minutes, difference of one minute!!!

I awarded the 1st team a hamper as a reward. The 2nd team learned how valuable 1 minute is the hard way >.<"

Mat Cool





Forget about that monkey, lets look at something really cool!
It is a bangle + phone + wrist watch!
What a WIN!

"The difference however lies in the present concept being touted as a fashion accessory that can be crafted in the metal of choice; giving you the luxury of being, chic, sporty, or uber-rich. A projected light beam in the inner circle impersonates the rotary dial, but to dial a number you need to simply touch it. Quite interesting."

FRESH



New type of 'earphone' which passes the sound to your eardrum directly.

Rules of life

I was reading the foreword and first chapter of the book. I was so impressed with it I actually bought it. There is a first time for everything, this is the first book I bought regarding spiritual intelligence.

Rule One - You will receive a body.
Rule Two - You will be presented with lessons.
Rule Three - There are no mistakes, only lessons.
Rule Four - The lesson is repeated until learned.
Rule Five - Learning does not end.
Rule Six - "There" is no better than "here".
Rule Seven - Others are only mirrors of you.
Rule Eight - What you make of your life is up to you.
Rule Nine - Your answers lie inside of you.
Rule Ten - You will forget all this at birth.

(Carter Scott references this quotation:) "Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood." (Helen Keller)

Rule One - You will receive a body. Whether you love it or hate it, it's yours for life, so accept it. What counts is what's inside.

Rule Two - You will be presented with lessons. Life is a constant learning experience, which every day provides opportunities for you to learn more. These lessons specific to you, and learning them 'is the key to discovering and fulfilling the meaning and relevance of your own life'.

Rule Three - There are no mistakes, only lessons. Your development towards wisdom is a process of experimentation, trial and error, so it's inevitable things will not always go to plan or turn out how you'd want. Compassion is the remedy for harsh judgement - of ourselves and others. Forgiveness is not only divine - it's also 'the act of erasing an emotional debt'. Behaving ethically, with integrity, and with humour - especially the ability to laugh at yourself and your own mishaps - are central to the perspective that 'mistakes' are simply lessons we must learn.

Rule Four - The lesson is repeated until learned. Lessons repeat until learned. What manifest as problems and challenges, irritations and frustrations are more lessons - they will repeat until you see them as such and learn from them. Your own awareness and your ability to change are requisites of executing this rule. Also fundamental is the acceptance that you are not a victim of fate or circumstance - 'causality' must be acknowledged; that is to say: things happen to you because of how you are and what you do. To blame anyone or anything else for your misfortunes is an escape and a denial; you yourself are responsible for you, and what happens to you. Patience is required - change doesn't happen overnight, so give change time to happen.

Rule Five - Learning does not end. While you are alive there are always lessons to be learned. Surrender to the 'rhythm of life', don't struggle against it. Commit to the process of constant learning and change - be humble enough to always acknowledge your own weaknesses, and be flexible enough to adapt from what you may be accustomed to, because rigidity will deny you the freedom of new possibilities.

Rule Six - "There" is no better than "here". The other side of the hill may be greener than your own, but being there is not the key to endless happiness. Be grateful for and enjoy what you have, and where you are on your journey. Appreciate the abundance of what's good in your life, rather than measure and amass things that do not actually lead to happiness. Living in the present helps you attain peace.

Rule Seven - Others are only mirrors of you. You love or hate something about another person according to what love or hate about yourself. Be tolerant; accept others as they are, and strive for clarity of self-awareness; strive to truly understand and have an objective perception of your own self, your thoughts and feelings. Negative experiences are opportunities to heal the wounds that you carry. Support others, and by doing so you support yourself. Where you are unable to support others it is a sign that you are not adequately attending to your own needs.

Rule Eight - What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. Take responsibility for yourself. Learn to let go when you cannot change things. Don't get angry about things - bitter memories clutter your mind. Courage resides in all of us - use it when you need to do what's right for you. We all possess a strong natural power and adventurous spirit, which you should draw on to embrace what lies ahead.

Rule Nine - Your answers lie inside of you. Trust your instincts and your innermost feelings, whether you hear them as a little voice or a flash of inspiration. Listen to feelings as well as sounds. Look, listen, and trust. Draw on your natural inspiration.

Rule Ten - You will forget all this at birth. We are all born with all of these capabilities - our early experiences lead us into a physical world, away from our spiritual selves, so that we become doubtful, cynical and lacking belief and confidence. The ten Rules are not commandments, they are universal truths that apply to us all. When you lose your way, call upon them. Have faith in the strength of your spirit. Aspire to be wise - wisdom the ultimate path of your life, and it knows no limits other than those you impose on yourself.

Apple WIN


Apple completely understands the power of pricing, as every one of their products
sits at the premium end of their respective categories.

Take the iPhone. AT&T is paying somewhere between $500 and $600 for each
iPhone they sell. A good comparison is the products from RIM: analysts
estimate carriers pay around $400 for each Blackberry sold. Apple is able to
maintain a 20% to 30% price premium over the next class competitor.

This translated into big news in November when research firm Strategy
Analytics reported that the top handset maker in the world, Nokia, earned an
estimated $1.1 billion with 35% global market share, while Apple earned $1.6
billion with 2.5% market share.

Here that is one more time: one point six billion dollars in profit on two point
five percent market share.

FAIL returns
