AhYap’s Blog

Soufu ask me to take a look at Steve Pavlina’s blog. My first impression is, “Yucks, who need another motivation blog?”. So I challenged soufu that NO ONE will be reading this blog. From my perspective, people don’t want motivation, people only want quick-fix to problems. People don’t want to diet and exercise to slim down. People like products that can help them to slim down without exercising and without the need to stop eating. People don’t want to learn about investing, but prefer to be told exactly what stock to buy or using a fully-automated trading system…

So I bet with him that this site will not be as popular as Kennysia’s blog. So we check on the Alexa ranking.

Cibai, my first ‘gambling’ in 2007 lost to soufu (Yesterday a ‘chinese feng-shui oracle’ in TV said people who is born in the Monkey year shouldn’t gamble in 2007, seems like he is right. But I still think he is a sin-kar-lan because soufu is also born in the Monkey year. So if Monkey bet with Monkey, who will win?). Steve Pavlina site is ranked the 2,549th most popular site in the internet! While Kennysia is around 21,491th! Losing by 18,000 spots.

[sin-kar-lan: cantonis, people who talk cock like ahyap]
This ‘Steve’ guy immediately get my attention. I read his About Page and here is an interesting excerpt.

… he started over in college and graduated in three semesters with a double-major in Computer Science and Mathematics. Steve has run the L.A. Marathon, trained in martial arts, and maintained a 100% vegan diet. He can juggle, count cards at blackjack, …

[juggle: To keep (two or more objects) in the air at one time by alternately tossing and catching them.]

Now, this man is what I call, people who have the GENETIC. Do you have it? I am not as smart as him, if I am to write my about page, it will go like this

… AhYap started over in college and graduated in NINE semesters, extending one extra semester as he is unable to complete his required credits within 8 semesters. He completed the 1.5km run in school for 8 minutes and 48 seconds, awarded the grade of ‘E’ (most people complete the run below 5 minutes), trained in tae-kwan-do for 1 year but still unable to kick above waist level, and maintained a 80% vegan diet (finally something similar, yeah). He can’t remember his girl friend house phone number, can’t differentiate between stalagmites and stalactites when studying geography, can’t even win noobs in Dota after playing for so many hours … (BTW, soufu also cannot win the noobs, wahahaha)

Do you see? I don’t have the genetic!

… …

But Wait! Don’t pity (可怜，同情）me! People who always like to be pitied will always be a loser. People who like to pity others are usually losers as well.

- You screw up in something, someone (mother, wife, teacher, friend, colleague, dai-yi-ma…) come and pity you and tell you, “Honey, it is ok …” You immediately feel the love and connection. Screwing up doesn’t seems so bad now! Then the next time you screw up again, they come to pity you again… again and again… and you are now trained that whenever you need love and connection, you will subconsciously try to screw up. Don’t agree with me? What if you are successful? People around get jealous. They stay away from you or even talk bad about you. You don’t get the love and connection. So subconsciously you learn that being successful is bad and screwing up is good.

- People like to pity losers and jealous on winners. When they saw losers, they are happy! They feel like their life is not that screw up as somebody else is more screw up then them! They feel significant (重要性）. So they like to pity. If someone is better than them, they feel like a loser (insignificant). They hate to feel like a loser, so they prefer to pity losers instead of praising winners. So subconsciously, people are trained to pity losers and jealous on winners.

- Since people like to pity (to feel significant) and be pitied (to get love and connection), losers always stick together to reaffirm each other. When I screw up, another loser can come to pity me. Both of us are happy. When another loser screw up, I can go and pity him. Both of us are happy.

This is why cibailang says, “We live in a Cibai world!”.

So if you want to be a loser, go pity someone, or enjoy being pitied.

You must have heard of goal setting. I think it is boring and I hate it when books and seminars ask me to do so. Do you like it?

In a short seminar, the speaker ask us to bring out a paper and write down 10 things that we want in life, in 1 minute. So I just pretend I write something but actually I wrote nothing. Because in my mind, I am thinking, “Oh come on, don’t make me do this stupid goal setting again”.

*Surprise*Surprise*

He didn’t ask us what goals we set, nor did he motivate us get it … He just say this,

“Look at what you have written, many people don’t get want they want in life because they don’t know what the want!”

It’s like a smack on my head. This is not a goal setting session. Instead, he is trying to point out the fact that most of us doesn’t know what we want in our life. How can you get want you want if you don’t know what you want in life? Now to be honest, do you know what you want in your life?

Michael Dell knows he want to beat IBM in the PC market.

Bill Gates knows he want to dominate the software for PC.

Warren Buffet told his neighbor he will be a millionaire by 30. He is now the 2nd richest man in the world.

A goal is nothing but a decision. The 2nd chapter of Anthony Robbins’ Awaken The Giant Within talks about DECISION.

- You set a goal to visit Japan in 2007. Isn’t that you have made a decision to go to Japan in 2007?

- You set a goal to buy a new house in 2007. Isn’t that you have made a decision to buy a new house in 2007?

Now in 2006, I got pretty tired for my routine works for 3 years after graduation. I make a decision to actually rest for 1 year. (You can say I set a goal to rest for 1 year). And know what? I did rested the whole 2006 doing nothing productive at all!

What you decide for is what you get! I make a stupid decision to rest for 1 year and I really ended up doing nothing for 1 year. I did accomplished my goal - rest 1 year. But at the same time, I also wasted 1 year. And god, 1 year is a very very long time. If you make your girl friend pregnant, it only takes 10 months to see your baby. So you got marry her and prepare your wedding in the first few months, before her tummy come out. Wahahahaha.

- Make a good decision, you get a good result

- Make a bad decision, you get a bad result

The reason I pointed out that a goal is nothing but a decision is because, you might think that goal setting is unrelated to you. But you are WRONG! Every second in your life, you are making decisions. You are actually setting goals for yourself without realizing it!

What if you don’t want to make a decision? That actually means you have make a decision not to make a decision! Instead of leading your life with decision, you have decide to lead your life by conditions. So at the end, you have also make a decision. And that’s a BAD decision (like my 2006 decision to do nothing). You will get what you decide for!

This is what differentiate achiever (successfully people) and ordinary people (losers). Achievers make decisions every moment to lead their life. They decide what they are going to eat, what book to read, what job to get, what friends to make, what *NOT* to eat, what time to sleep, etc.

Ordinary people make a decision not to make a decision but let the conditions and circumstances lead them. So they go to the university that seems like destiny (命运） want them to go , they take the course that seems like destiny want them take, they meet friends that seems like destiny want them to meet, they have living style and eating habits that seems like destiny want them to have … Their job, their relationship, their health, their financial condition, their time … all are lead by life conditions.

A good metaphor for this is that if you are rowing a boat in the river. If you don’t decide where you want to go, you have actually decided to let the condition lead you. So the condition here is the flowing water. Most people don’t realize about this, until one day, they saw a waterfall coming 100m from them! And that is a personal disaster.

In real life, it can be losing your job at 40 with a wife and 4 children with $0.35 in your bank account and owning your bank $328,888 for the loan for your bungalow and big car. It can also be that your doctor told you, “I am sorry that you are diagnosed with lung cancer and you will only be living for another year”. Or maybe, I say to you “Congratulation, you are HIV positive!” (because you told yourself that you are a sales engineer, you have no choice but to ‘call chicken’ （叫鸡） along with your clients).

Friend, when you see the waterfall, it is already too late! At that time you can either blame (still doesn’t admit it is your fault) or learn something, but still it is too late!

You might hope that you had make a decision not to smoke even all your colleagues do. Instead of saying, “All my friends are smokers, so I have to smoke too” (lead by conditions). Or even better, decide to stay away from friends that have bad habits such as drinking and smoking.

You may wish that you have decided to eat differently, instead of thinking at that time, “My grandfather, my mother-in-law, my colleague, my friends, all people in Malaysia also eat like that!” (lead by conditions). Remember most of them had or will be meeting the waterfall! You can decide if you want to be like them or not like them.

You can decide not to have sex with the hooker. Just pay the bill for your client and wait outside (or pretend inside). Instead of saying, “I have no choice, that’s my job”. (lead by conditions). Or even better, decide to get another job!

You can decide in everything! What friends you want to make, what job you want to pursue, how you spend your time, how to spend your money, what hobbies to have, to smoke or not to smoke, 2 wifes or 20 wifes (joking, but still what you decide is what you get) … You can always say NO to something (your decisions), instead of thinking that you have no choice (the conditions).

If you really read my post until here, make decisions yourself and lead your life by your own decisions. Don’t let the conditions lead your life! Don’t say the phase, “I have no choice”! You always have a choice to decide what you want to do about something.

上过很多课程，读过很多书。他们会告诉你，“你们看那些成功的人，他们做东西都不是为了钱，而是为了兴趣。他们对自己的工作充满热情（Passion），他们热爱自己的工作，完全投入… 所以他们都有出色的表现，你们看Bill Gates对电脑的兴趣，看Tiger Woods对高尔夫球的热情，看Warren Buffet对玩股票的执著… ”

我想了很久，对他们说的有所怀疑。

今天你想要改变，你可能想自己出来做做生意，或尝试MLM或保险业…你可以选择为钱，或者为兴趣。

如果你选择为钱（而你现在又很穷），你成功的机会将是很高！你的痛苦（穷），将推动你去得到快乐（钱），你会愿意做你毫无兴趣的东西，因为你的目标根本就不是什么兴趣和热情，而是钱钱钱钱钱钱钱钱… 管他什么喜不喜欢见客人，卖VCD，煮猪肠粉，打冷电话，拉皮条… 赚钱的欲望会一直推动你，使你奋斗，努力。设在前面的目的地是‘钱’，用什么方法得到跟有没有兴趣根本没有关系。

成功的机会很高，往往都可以让你比身边的人更出色，更成功，更有表现。你可以说是有点出人头地，你的朋友和家人会比较看得起你。人人都会对你刮目相看。

可惜的是，当你到了这个地步，你想再更进一步的机会就很渺茫了，因为你之前的推动力（穷的痛苦）已经没有了，你追求的快乐（钱），也已经很足够了。你处身在“舒适境界”（Comfort Zone）里。你就会变成一个懒人。可是人家又不可以批评你，毕竟你懒的同时成绩单又比他们好。你不上不下，半天掉。这是你‘为钱’而工作的代价。

为兴趣的人，有热情推动，他们永远不会觉得累，因为他们每天都在做自己喜欢的东西。如果你的推动力是兴趣，你将会有两个结果…

1. 你成就自己的事业，做自己有兴趣的事情当儿又可以赚大钱！你成为下一个Bill Gates/Britney Spears.

2. 你一事无成，只能当一个一生无名的‘艺术家’/‘专家’！你可能一辈子卖kacang puteh, 在街边帮鬼佬画像，在cafe唱歌，在地洞弹吉他唱Hotel California乞钱，写没人看得书，写没人看的blog（像ahyap.com,连女朋友也不来看！）… 这就是你的代价！

说了一大堆，就是要告诉你，今天如果你想出来闯一闯，你可以选择为钱或者为兴趣。选择任何一个都有不同的代价和结果！

如果你一开始的目的就是想要成为下一个林梧桐（云顶创办人），或者成为李钟伟（世界羽球#2！Malaysia Boleh）… 你唯一的选择是‘兴趣’。只有‘兴趣’可以不停的推动着你，甚至越燃越猛，让你一飞冲天。可是你要记得，也要接受你选择‘兴趣’的代价！你可能只能成为‘林树桐’或‘李阳萎’！

选择为钱虽然不能成大事业，但毕竟成小事业的机会就高很多，让你爸爸妈妈老婆孩子脸上有光的机会就多了！Ben屎可能没有，Camry可能就没问题。Zakaria五百万的皇宫比较难,半独立洋房不难。每个月出国旅行不容易，一年两次没问题！

我的忠告是，开始时为钱，有钱了才来讲兴趣。

古人说，“一份耕耘，一份收获。”

你觉得呢？

我看到有人

一份耕耘，没有收获

惨一点的就

十份耕耘，也没有收获!

有些就

一份耕耘，三份收获

厉害点的就

一份耕耘，十份收获!

有些人

别人耕耘，我收获

有些就

帮人耕耘，给人收获！

古人说的不是很正确。

耕耘可以自己耕耘，也可以叫别人耕耘。

耕耘不一定有收获，有也不一定是自己的，通常是给老板的。

聪明的人，少少耕耘，多多收获； 笨一点的，耕耘比人家多，收获却比人家少！

可是有一点却是比较肯定的，就是

没有耕耘，就没有收获！

自己没耕耘，也没有别人替你耕耘，你聪明也好，笨也好，都肯定没有收获！

写这篇文章的原因，是因为看到很多人都抱着不用耕耘，却有很大收获的希望。

这种人“守株待兔”，每天发白日梦，希望有个机会可以在没有付出的情况之下，一夜成功（讲一夜发达比较好啦，“发达”比较敏感）。

买彩票啦，赌博赌马啦，问神拿神字啦…

相信“快致富”骗局，相信“南非高官的儿子”有4百万要借你的银行户口放一放，然后就给你4万块的佣金，相信隔壁阿婆的股票“内幕消息”…

有些听直销公司两个小时的介绍会就拿出几千块加入，然后以为不用作任何东西的情况之下，钱就会滚滚而来。有些还跟亲朋戚友借钱，有些就把爸爸妈妈，老婆老公，兄弟姐妹，全部一起拉下水，希望“有福同享”。结果呢？哭哭啼啼就有份。

（他们相信那些“画圆圈”的人，他们画一个接一个的圆圈然后跟你讲，“只要你找5个人，然后这5个人又再找5个人，这5个人又再找5个人…然后你的银行户口就会多几多钱，你可以买几辆S Class的 Ben-屎…”)

问题不是贪心，而是贪心却又不想耕耘。

对这种人我想说，“不要再发白日梦了，天下没有白吃的午餐！ 付出了不一定会成功，可是不付出就肯定不会成功。就算给你碰巧得到了也会很快失去，因为你根本就不是真才实料。”

最近在马来西亚本身就有很多的seminar，教人家怎样赚钱。有玩股票的，有销售的，有激励的 （NLP，成功学，催眠学，潜能学…么‘咚咚’都有），玩地产的，做Bis-ness-屎的，玩Fran-cai-屎的… 一大‘波罗’。

不是说这些seminar骗人，也不是叫你不要上，而是要你知道，没有一个课程你上了就立刻可以让你成仙！没有所谓上了几天课就可以飞那么便宜的事！你上了课只代表你拿到了幼稚园的毕业证书！你还要花很多时间和很多精力来拿你的UPSR，PMR， SPM，拿你的 degree, master 和 PHD！这样你才可能有所发挥，有所表现。上了课程只是一个很小的开始，你还要继续付出，付出，付出。你拿几天时间跟几千块出来，根本就微不足道，不算是什么付出。

我本身上过很多课，很清楚明白这个道理。我看到来上课的同学都抱着很大的希望（无端端可以发达的希望），然而我可以给你写包单，很多上了课一年后还是同一个样子，一点改变也没有。我上过玩Options的课程,要整4千多块。我一年多过后回去Gathering，有很多同学连Trading的户口都还没开！他问我的问题，就赤裸裸的告诉我他连老师教的最基本，他也不明白。 连幼稚园的毕业证书都拿不到，还想发白日梦赚大钱？没有亏完全部钱已经要偷笑了！

在这里给那些有冲动想去上课的人一个忠告（你有冲动，我不怪你，因为搞课程的人，都打着“上我4天课，你就会发达”的牌），除非你很有钱，几千块完全不算什么，你最好是想清楚，你是否愿意上了课以后还肯继续“深造”，继续花时间研究，练习，付出。如果不肯， 我劝你还是把钱和时间留给自己 （拿去跟老婆旅行或捐出去会比较有意义，不然就给我也可以）。

看到别人一夜成名，一夜发达，只是你的感觉。 你没有留意到他之前几千几万夜的付出和耕耘。当你还在发梦不用耕耘，却有很大收获的时候，人家已经耕耘了比你多十万八千倍！比？怎么比？

记住：

一份耕耘，不一定有一份收获。可是没有耕耘，就肯定没有收获！

I am not trying to debate who is right and who is wrong in this blog post. That’s a boring news in the newspaper. You don’t need to read what newspaper have to say, nor did you need to know what the politicians have to say, because everything has a *pattern*. This pattern is so predicatable that if it is about stock market, I will make millions everyday.

1. Newspaper will support Pak Lah

2. Barisan members will support Pak Lah (I mean their speech, conscience is not sure)

3. DAP, Keadilan, etc (i.e. parti pembangkang, diu what is parti pembangkang in English?) will say although they won’t fully agree with Mahathir, but the goverment has to address his concern.

Unfortunately, most ordinary people cannot *see through* most things (I am not saying you, you are very smart I know ^_^). They see everything as it. As what the newspaper says, as what the politicians say. And they believe in everything they said. They can’t see the pattern behind all these.

1. Politicians don’t give speech based on their heart but give speech base on the situation and benefit. Najib must 100% support Abdullah because his future rely on him (If he want to be the next PM, he need to support Adbullah, unless he don’t want to), so as other UMNO minister that is speaking everyday in newspaper. So do you need to read anything they have to say?

2. Now this is the nice part. When today is history, Mahathir will be called the trouble maker (or stubborn old man) and Pak Lah is the hero. But what if (WHAT IF), Mahathir win the fight and Adbullah have to give up his PM seat? Wow, that is the fun part, Mahathir will now become the hero and Adbullah will become the loser. The UMNO minister who condemn Mahathir before this will now stand beside Mahathir and praise him for his good job.

As I have said earlier, I am not debating who is right or wrong. I am just saying that people who have the power usually are the one who are “right”. While the one with no power will have to be loser. All people who rely on the ‘power’ people will keep telling everyone why the powerman is right and why the powerless man is wrong. But if the powerless happen to turn the table, the same group of people will immediately change their mouth and say the other way.

Winners are always the good guy and Losers are always the bad guy.

History is written by the winners. Losers have no right to write the history. And Winners will always say why they are right and why the losers are wrong. If a winner say he is wrong, he is really something-wrong.

Can’t agree with this? Everyone think that Adolf Hitler is an evil and US is our super hero. That’s is because US win the war. What if US lose the war and Adolf Hitler rule the world? What do you think we will be studing in our history text book?! Adolf Hitler will be the good guy and US will be the bad guy!

It’s not really RIGHT or WRONG itself to decide who is RIGHT or WRONG.

It’s the WINNER who decide who is RIGHT or WRONG!

Exactly 4 years ago in October 2002, I finally finished my 9th semester (extended!) in UTM and came home to Ipoh.

Although I enjoy my Uni life very much, there are really a lot of things that show that I am a loser at that time.

1. As a dean list student with a score of 96% on my final year project, I can’t find a company to take me for practical training, until the last minute Flextronics take me up as a pity.

2. I can’t graduate along with my other coursemates because I have to extend 1 more semester.

3. I wore my RM100 long-sleeve shirt that I bought for my graduation dinner and wear my RM50 handsome-yap tie, drove to Senai Seagate and waited 2 hours before it is my turn for the job interview. I screw the interview. The not-so-handsome who wear T-shirt and jeans got the job. Damn it!

4. Going after 3 girls, but all screw up. (note: screw up = failed, not screw in!)

What do I learned? (and you can learn if you want)

1. Doing well in academic and scoring 96% in your final year project doesn’t promise you anything in your future. It just make you feel more fucked up when you can’t get a job! BTW, I still keep my project here.

2. Should have study less and play more, go to mamak stall every night and visit JB every week! If academic result numbers mean everything, computer can select the right candidates on its own and interviews are not required.

3. Be a good boy can’t get you pass an interview. You got to lie your ass off, talk big and over promise. You have to pretend that you know everything. It doesn’t matter if you can really execute your job or not because you don’t even have a chance to execute anything if you can’t get the job in the first place.

To add a little juice to my explanation, after I graduated, I wrote 3 very long letters to 3 different banks begging them to approve me a credit card. All of them reject my application because I don’t have any pay-slips. Honesty and Be-A-Good-Boy is not the way to play the game. Shouldn’t it be easier if I just fake some pay-slips?

4. Girls? No comment. Ask playboy soufu to comment. Soufu, how many papayas have you pluck when you are in UM? Kekekekeke.

As all my friends know, I always invisible in YM and they can always buzz me if they want to talk to me. And there is one weird guy (give some face lar, call him ‘cute’ guy) who always send me weird messages (even he never see me online nor I will talk to him).
Today is the best

awak? awak rasa saya ni perlu ke dalam list YM awak? so kalau taknak tengok saya ader dalam list YM awak.. sila DEL .. tapi kasi tahu saya dulu .. so saya pon del awak… okay?

My response is the same, no respond.

I search though the history and here are some others

BEST MESSAGE - follow the link to read the article

http://www.meranti.org/meranti2/readarticle.php?article_id=18 << read carefully . Islam is not punishing ppl but using a really bad tactic of changing someone's religion is bad . (my english is not perfect)

I don’t want to comment too much about that article because it is about religion and I do respect people’s religion. Do read it yourself, esp on the ‘holy water’ part. The only thing I would say is that there are really a lot of weird (cute lar I mean) people in this world. And we really need to open our heart wider to accept them. And I hope they will accept us too because we will be weird too in thier perspective.

Went to bought Amanah Saham Wawasan 2020 this morning at 8.45am (a unit trust fund that have sound performance, around 6-10% per annum). Since I already got an account opened last time, I can just take a number and wait. My number is 34. For those who didn’t have an account, they have to queue up! Heard that the person who get the 1st place came at 6.00am. A young man at position 5 came at around 7.00am.

The best of the story is not how many people are queuing up or how early they came.

There are 100 people waiting to but the fund, but only 1 person manage to buy. Not even the second person! Fund sold off immediately after the first person completes his transaction. haha.

1. There are hundred thousands other people queuing at 808 banks (Maybank, BCB & RHB) and 662 post offices in the whole country to grab the fund.

2. BACK DOOR! Those who have ‘relationship’ with the bank might have been buying even before those who use the main door. ‘Relationship’ can be bank manager’s father-in-law, bank officer’s daughter, security guard’s friend, etc. Today, they said their server is offline and is not able to enter any transaction for the first 20 mins. Offline? Maybe at the back of the office a computer has already been connected and a staff is busy entering transactions for all the back door customers. When the are ‘managed to connect’, it actually means they have finish processing all the back door transactions.

People who know how to use back door and relationship get all the tenders, loans, agreement, license, promotions, grant, sales, etc.

Found a lot of old files in my computer. One of them being a coursework for my Digital Signal Processing (DSP). This is the subject that I’ve dropped along with my 4 housemates which end up that 5 of us have to extend for another semester! Totaled 4 and a half years in UTM. But then life is really good in the last semester. We have 2 weekdays and 5 weekends as we only need to go to class for 2 days a week.

I remembered I got an A for this subject. But then, when I found this in one of my file, I don’t have a clue what are they!

Graduated for almost 4 years now. And it is enough to erase almost everything that I have learned in my university. Time flies. I do miss my U time a lot. Hanging around mamak every night, driving to JB for shopping centers, movies and lots of food!, playing StarCraft with my housemate, clubbing in some cheaplak pub, walk around the dirty JB beach, sleep on the streetway of Orchart Road on Christmas, vacation at the Kukup fisherman village, keep checking the Bumiputra ATM to see if PTPTN has deposit money to us… life is so good when we are still students.

我的评语

1. 打人的人很笨，做坏人也不会做,尽然给人拍完整个犯罪过程,而且还不是偷拍的！笨。

2. 看戏的男孩子没LJ，看到女生被人欺负也不去阻止。到最后才出场，迟不迟点啊？

3. 被打的女生的确很可怜，更可怜的是，如果这件事不被揭发，她还会被欺负很多很多次！可能这也不是第一次了！而且可能也已经organize好了，时间地点都set好，还请很多观众来看好戏。这种人广东话叫做‘好虾’，意思就是很好欺负。这种人很多，很可怜。想一想，如果她发疯的和那个肥婆打架，她输了不要紧，就是要死牛的和她打个你死我活，告诉那个肥婆，“我不是你想象中那么好欺负的！” 你觉得那个肥婆以后想欺负她的时候，是不是需要‘避忌避忌’一下？
