The Art Of Negotiations

salam and good evening.
Thursday and Friday we learned about negotiations.
in this life, we must negotiate almost everyday.
children will negotiate with parents.
employee will negotiate with employer.
students will negotiate with teachers.
and so on.

Mr Hisham conducted this class.
when we negotiate.
win-win situation is very important.
we must flexible with our decision and must have BATNA.
BATNA is like we have back up things if negotiate fail.

when negotiate.
emotion must avoid because it will become the barrier.
not too rigid and flexible is important.

in this class.
we were asked to act in drama about negotiation.
1st day, the story line had prepared by Mr Hisham.
my group got story about landlord want to raise the rent.
so, my group must need to negotiate with landlord.
comments from Mr Hisham.
we were too emotional.
very very emotional.

2nd day.
we need to create an event.
i partner with Dhiya and we come with amazing story.
a story about doctor need to negotiate with his/her dying patient.
the doc want his/her dying patient to donate organs.
but, our story not come out when bail out.



owh, i need to be an actor.
for 2 story.
first with Nabila.
i need to negotiate with her.
about go to village during Hari Raya.




2nd is with Fadirul and Zaheerah.
about i as vocalist, want to going solo.
and this drama, we got best actor.
Mr Hisham gave us chocolate.




very happy and i learned a lot of things from Mr Hisham.
and, this day maybe the last day Mr Hisham teach us.
He is very best trainer.

Public Speaking

salam and good evening...
sex before marry.
this issue become worst from day to day.
one researcher from local university had conducted a survey.
he asked teenager age from 13-25 about sex before marry.
from 400 respondents, 300 of them admitted that they already had sex before marry.
and 85% from that 300 respondents not regret and happy when doing that.


this problem had become like cancer.
if we not treat well, it will kill our country.
what is the cause???
from my opinion, movies and dramas especially from western can be one of the cause.
when we saw movies, in romantic part, when man and woman want to show their pure love.
they make love.
more or less, this part will effect child and teenager.
they will think if we want pure love, make love is essential.


another cause is curiosity.
weird right, curiosity is like double edge sword.
it can bring good things and also bad things.
teenager or child that exposed that sex things too much.
they will wonder and want to try it.
and when they get opportunity.
you know... some bad things happen 


what the effects of these problem.
the increasing of baby dumping nowadays is the effect from this problem.
this child that born from illegal way always dis-acknowledge by their own parents.
and their parents will dump and kill their own baby.


the bad behavior and undisciplined attitude also will develop.
if teenager dare to against god rule (Allah).
dont u think they will against mankind rule.


and how to cure this problem.
i think morale and religious education in more important.
we must educate them at the early age.
our mistake is we educate them when there are too late.
when there are too late.
their mind just focus on how to enjoy and ignore most of advise.   

this is topic that i discuss during 'Public Speaking'.
this presentation is big presentation for individual topic.
my group, Pecah Mental must discuss about "Youth Social Problems".
and that some of my speech.

Mr Hisham said.
i improved and improved.
just i need to correct my pronunciation.
thanks Mr Hisham for that comments.

BEFORE THEY SEE YOU ALL...
such the cruel world right...
and there are interesting fact...
HR (human resources) just used less than 45 second to read your resume...

Meeting

salam and good morning...
last thursday... (09/12/10)...
we learned about meeting by Assoc. Prof Khir Mohd Ashaari...
quite standard module for entrepreneurs program like this...
so, i did not expect more about this module...

in addition...
i was quite an active student during undergrad life...
i was representative for my residential college...
so, every month, at least we had one meeting...
there is one day, i must attend two meeting at one day...
and if i not mistaken... there are a day that i have two meeting at the same time...
so, meeting is normal for me...

but, surprisingly... 
i learn a lot of things in this module...
i cant even blink my eyes and not even sleepy at all...
although his presentation quite boring... because dont have any activity...

what i learn from this module???
now i know that my previous meeting is not an effective one...
and i know the importance of meeting minute...
and now i know that chairman should not talking too much...
and i know that secretary is a tough job...
i also know chairman can reject by member...
i also know each meeting member just have one chance to speak out their opinions...
i also know the importance of notice of meeting...
and a lot of things...

what the purpose of meeting???
the only purpose of meeting is to find decision...
only to find or create decision....
and, the effective and efficient meeting happen when...
we can make decision without wasting to much time...
because time is money...

why there are lot of meeting not effective and efficient...
because their member dont know the purpose of meeting notice...
when you get meeting notice...
you also get the agenda and time gap is about 14 days...
so, you all have a lot of time to make research, analysis about the agenda...
it can shorten the time of meeting...
notice of meeting also importance and the decision on the meeting can be challenge is there are error in meeting notice...

actually... i am hate when get minute of meeting...
for me, it waste the paper...
but....
minute of meeting is very importance...
it can be a evidence if there are case is court of law...
and if someone try to manipulate it...
they will be jail if found guilty....

and there are lot of knowledge that i gain...
my mind now open about meeting and if i'll become a leader in organization...
i'll make sure that my meeting is effective and efficient...

see you later...

The Art of Public Speaking...

salam and good morning...
yesterday in BeST program...
we all learn about public speaking...
it was handled by Mr Hisham Ab Karim and Mrs. Syadwan Hanani...

a very good module so far...
it thought u how to deliver a good speech...
good speeches can attract audiences and enable us to deliver our messages appropriately...
it is very important if we want important things to say...

according to Mr Hisham...
there are several elements that we must consider before do a public speaking...
there are...
volume
 -not too loud or too soft when speaking...
- louder voice in large and crowded place...
  - raise and lower the volume to emphasize the point or show emotions..

Mr Hisham

rate
- not too fast or too slow...
- presenting new or difficult information may be done slowly...
- delivery should be faster than normal conversational speed (to avoid boring situation)...

emphasis
articulation
organization
word choice

that are few of element that one should consider before or when conduct a public speaking...

the tone of voice also important because it can show the mood or expression...
like... "i am tired"
it can be anger mood...
sarcasm mood...
frustration mood...
or anything depend on the intonation that we used...

in this module...
we are assigned to draw what in our mind at the moment we receive the paper...
i draw chicken... hahaha... because at that time...
i was thinking what to eat for the dinner...

after lunch break...
we were assigned to promoted or doing drama/ advertisement or something like that in front of class...
my group (Pecah Mental) got iphone 4 as the object and we agreed to dramatized a advertisement...
the story of my advertisement is about...
a family want to go to village...
and during the journey...
we use various application in iphone 4...
such as video calling...
GPS...
internet networking...
itunes store...
etc...
the comments that we received...
in logical world... our car may crash or we will involve in the accidents because the father (me), not focus on driving but always participate in children conversation at back... hahaha...

iphone 4













but... we learn a lot of things during this module...
and the lecturer give several tips for public speaking that are...
calm...
confident...
use simple words...
KISS (Keep It Simple and Sexy/Sensational)
Dramatize speech
Be Braze to make mistakes

How to Reach An Audience Through Blogging...

we know that blogs are now enjoying a widespread usage currently.
approximately one new blog is created in every half a second...
so, in one minute... there are about 120 new blogs in this world...




what is blog...
blog can be online diary... the owner or the author can input or write down their story, experience, mood at that time, what he/she doing, and etc..
we can say blog can be anything, its depend on the authors...

simply saying, blog is one of the cheapest, newest and easiest medium for everyone no matter what your status are, be it a politician, royal family, jobless person, normal worker, maid or students. this medium can reach and can be read all over the world as long as you have an internet connection.

now, everyone can be an author.

on a negative note, a blog can also can harm people... this is because when the author ignores the etiquette of blogging and use it as an attacking medium to another...

but, everyone can write (in this case, type), but not everyone can be good writer...
how do you defined yourself as good writer???
its depends how popular your blog is...
is it you have a lot of follower???
it is your comment box always have new comments???
and so on...

and how to make our blog is popular and everyone like to follow your blog everyday...
it is depend how you reach an audience through blogging...

in my opinion...
the important thing that you all must concern to reach an audience is writing skill...
we dont have be so formal or so informal because that can limit our audience...
if we can be between of formal and informal writing skill, we can reach a lot of audience can consist of formal peoples, informal peoples and between of formal and informal peoples.

writing skill not meant your story must be great every post...
but, how you all manage to write your story...
mean, your introduction...
your climax...
and your ending of the story must align well and dont make the audience dizzy when read your blog...
thats mean, the plot and story line must at synchronize well... 
the usage of good and catchy phrase also important...

writing skill also consist of your font in your blog...
the font must not too small because it can cause eyesore to audience...
the colour of fonts must not too colourful because it also can make your audience eyesore...
you must choose appropriate font, background and etc carefully and ask your friend opinion if you are not sure...

to reach the audience, the originality of the story also important...
usually, the original story always attract audience...
if you all copy paste the story, it will low the reputation as a blogger...
audience will not coming to your blog again and they rather go to blog that you all copy...

how to get original story???
usually, original story obtained from experienced or yourself need to find it...
the professional bloggers usually dont have job...
or we can say that being a blogger is their job...

what is it???
a real or professional bloggers will haunt for stories...

they got their stories from premier sources...
and dont depend on another journalist or writer...
and if you're always have information and publish it faster than anyone...
you can be references to other reader...

actually, there are a lot of things that a bloggers need to reach audience...
but, that requirements can be achieve when you start blogging...
if you'll find that blogging is very fun...
you achieve the most important part to be the bloggers...
and another knowledge will automatically is in your hand...

see you all later and happy blogging...

from the speaker that is Dr Nal... she is among the first batch that learned biology / biotech in Malaysia...

 
do you know that biology also have their spectrum...
i also dont know about that before...
biology can be divide into few colour that are...
red biology...
white biology...
green biology...
and blue biology...
 
red biology commonly biology that relate to health...
for examples: medical, pharmaceuticals, etc...
they used red colour to represented blood...


 
white biology...
maybe you all think about biology relate to Mahsuri Health right...
sorry but that totally wrong...
white biology is about industry in biology...
maybe got that colour for white collar job...


 
green biology...
what do you think???
yeah, thats right...
it is about agriculture...


 
blue biology is about all organisms in ocean...
ocean is blue right...
