Reflection by Faiez H Seiyal

The Almighty God is never be a discriminative. The problem is that we have put many barriers for ourselves development. We think that 10 hours of sleeping is must, we think that 3 times of eating is fixed requirement for surviving, we think that we could not work more than 8 hours per day. We have already been familiar with comfortable life, living with either air conditioner or heater. We think that we could not have a walk farther than 10 – 15 miles at once, because it is not humanly. Those kind of thinkings are the restriction for ourselves

For all people achieving success throughout the era are people who could define the norms, rules, habits by themselves. They spread their wing everyday, looking for the chances for benefiting potentials from their bodies, mind , and souls. If you want to grow, so you should emerge your comfortable zone. Spread your vision into the new horizon of lives. Challenge yourself with new things which have value of lives, then take a look for the blessing that God already gives to us. Actually, we have unimaginable capacity for achieving somethings. Our bodies, mind, and souls have incredible flexibility in adjusting to what we need. We could train ourselves in many ways.

The Almighty God gives us the unique abilities like this. That is we could train our bodies, mind , souls in any circumstances. It's flexibility is the only one gift in which Allah gives for human, not for other creatures

The ESQ - Ari Ginanjar Agustian

2007-04-08T20:07:00.000-07:00

The ESQ Power – Ari Ginanjar Agustian

We might have already familiar with the ESQ Power concept ed by Ari Ginanjar Agustian. To make an easy understanding I will call ESQ Power as Ari's concept. First time i read the Ari's book I feel so surprise with ari's concept. The impression which was emerged in my mind was a creative, unique, and smart one. In my opinion, Ari's concept tried to combine between psychology and Islam. At that moment i supposed that Ari Ginanjar was a trend setter of the new way of thinking. If we take a look for awhile that few people in Indonesia could be a trend setter or most of Indonesian are a follower. However,here Ari can be a trend setter of thoughts. Objectively i admire him as a good pioneer.

In first chapter of his book he tries to review about the obsolete idea of IQ. He mentions that IQ not anymore being the most important gift. Deliberately i use the world “gift” to emphasize that most people in the old decades assumed IQ as the most precious blessing from God. When parents will have babies, most of them beg to God for having babies with higher IQ. It might that they hope to have babies with Einstein IQ level. Their thought are simple because if their children have high IQ so their lives will be easy. In other words, having high IQ can guarantee what future will be. The bright future could be reached as long as we have high IQ. I'm absolutely sure that until now most Indonesian still assume IQ as the important gift for their children.

U Can If U think U can - Normant Vincent Peale II

2007-04-01T20:07:00.000-07:00

...When we could stabilize our emotions, our potentials for solving the problems could emerge easily.
There is contrary reason, why we should not afraid with problems because those are the accessories in most people lives. They are surely surrounded by problems because we live in the normal world. So be careful if you don’t have any problems due to you do not deserve to live in this world. There is interesting statement from Peale. He said “you should be afraid if you don’t any problems in this world, if you don’t have, you should go to your own room and beg to God. Praise and say God please, give me problems, I want you treat me like a normal human”.
This statement firstly looks so strange. However if we muse this, we could find the truth from this. The existence of problems is along with the existence of human being. It is like 2 parts that can be separated. Then we should realize that when people are bravely to live so they should ready be peppered by problems. The important thing is we should play in the wise, realistic, and effective lines.
In many parts of this book, a lot of stories are served well by the author. The stories are about the problems from the people in which the author met. Firstly, those people are collapse when they are fallen into troubles. They feel that theirs lives have ruined. Then the author guides those people how to react when facing those troubles. And finally, the author offers the possible solutions that might be. Here the author locates himself as a problematic consultant. He could help people who really need his helps.
The author used repetitive phrase. That is ‘u can if u think u can’. It is the core of this book or the main idea and could be said as the author’s formula. I said that as a formula because the author become popular because he uses the icon ‘ u can if u think u can’. In most stories in this book, the author always proposes this powerful formula for solving the problems. Then the author completes each story with the successful ending as consequences for implementing his formula. Its look that the author attempts to proof that his formula works well for many cases.
The whole book contains of the facts that we surely would face. Those are problems. When the problems arrive, we should remember the Norman’s powerful formula, YOU CAN IF YOU THINK YOU CAN.
Objectively or without any tendencies, I highly recommend all to read this book. We could pick many benefits from this book. The book are available in most book stores in Indonesia such as Gramedia, Gunung Agung , etc. Have a good reads and enjoy your reading.

U Can If U Think U Can - Normant V P - Part I

2007-03-30T01:28:00.000-07:00

The name of Norman Vincent Peale might be familiar in our ears, especially for everyone who concern about self development literatures. Many interesting books have been written by him. However, there is one book that impresses me much. It is “You can Think If U think U can”. Seems, it’s a simple phrase, but by this phrase the author can successfully develop into qualified book. Why it is called as qualified one because I realized it could influence the readers in the way of thinking. The book contains of many opinions of the author while are supported by a lot of real experiences. In my point of view, the objective of the author is encouraging the readers to don’t give up easily and always to thanks to God in all circumstances. Many problems usually make us depressing, stress, and give up. Mostly people sacrifice their mind only to think why these problems happen, not to attempt figuring out the solutions from those problems. Besides, they sometimes blame to God why he has the heart to giving those. They feel that they are the only persons who have suffering much. These feelings become an ordinary thinking in our environments.

In his book, the author tries to remind the readers, that we are not the loosing one. However, people who have more suffering are available much. He tries to emphasize that God’s gifts are already a lot then what we have loosing in. he proposes the other ways of thinking. He tells that we suppose to forget why the bad circumstances happen and don’t let these embezzle your mind. But we should think clearly that whatever the problems are, we still could solve them. Don’t be afraid to face the problems, but face those bravely, and then find out the best solution. When facing the problems, the first respond is, doesn’t regret anything but think wisely and keep try for smiling looks like nothing happen. In other words, we should stabilize our emotions if the problems come.

Starting from the guidance to identify ourself, followed by learning more from difficult environment and many failure experiences, then creating powerful vision, and ended by listing the the daily,weekly,monthly activities which could shore up our vision.

Reflection Two - Consistancy

2007-03-12T01:30:00.000-07:00

Hehehe wawan...

Feeling that u have learnt manythings....
Feeling that u have had more self confidence...
Feeling that u have experienced more

Yeah that is wawan.
Should I have those feelings? when where and in what circumstances...it's questionable from me and for me too. We have already known that those feelings are difficult to be measured, and relative too.

Let's set up a scenario ... when we are in embarrasing circumstances...for example our boss or our supervisor mocks us because in discussion we are lack of idea or asking some foolish question. At that moment , we'll feel that we are stupid one that haven't learnt anythings. sometimes we would depress and loss our spirit and our self confidence.
However, when we are in the situation that our supervisor show a proud for us because we have argue some good opinions. Our reaction would be positive, feeling that we've produced good thinking, feeling we've learnt more, and we would have more self esteem...

When u resume the scenario above. that feeling it's situational or dependent. in my opinion that feeling is normal, and for my current condition i still have that kind of feeling.
I think that we could improve that feeling and trying be confidence in all circumstances...don't lose ur spirit and still keep learn more from anythings and anywhere...

Oh God, sometime i feel i'm the lucky one. but sometime i don't know how to make benefit from ur blessing. Feeling vulnarable one because of many inputs , many thoughts , and many things. I'm on the way in my journey...journey to explore more and more experiences...i don't always think that those experience will be useful or not ...but sometime s believe there are hidden secrets behind those ...just my thought can't achieve...can't conclude to ...oh God the almighty one ...please give me strength stance to belive that.
