10 Cara Membina Motivasi Diri
www.iluvislam.com


Sebelum mengambil sebarang langkah, duduk sejenak. Tarik nafas panjang dan lepaskan sekali gus. Kemudian pejamkan mata. Beri salam kepada diri sendiri dan katakan, "Hai, engkau dijadikan bukan untuk berkeluh-kesah.” Kemudian bangkitlah dan cuba lakukan perkara-perkara berikut:

1. Perbaiki imej anda Cuba lakukan sedikit perubahan
Kalau selama ini anda tidak kisah kalau seluar yang dipakai sehingga seminggu dan tidak bergosok, cuba kali ini menukarnya selalu dan pelbagaikan warnanya. Jika anda wanita, tukar imej kusam kepada kemas. Elegan dan aktif. Perkemaskan juga wajah anda denga sedikit solekan ringan. Kenakan warna-warna ceria pada tubuh anda; pada baju dan tudung. Hiasi jari dengan sebentuk cincin untuk menambah seri. Jangan terlalu pendiam, tetapi jangan pula terlalu bising. Bersikap sederhana dan ringankan mulut jika orang meminta pendapat.

2. Lakukan senaman ringan

3. Senyum Senyum boleh mengubah segala-galanya.
Hadiahkanlah senyuman kepada seseorang, anda akan mendapat senyumannya balik.





4. Berfikiran positif
Berfikiran positif membolehkan minda anda mengeluarkan arus alpha iaitu arus kecemerlangan untuk membina kejayaan. Berfikiran positif juga membuatkan perkara yang sukar menjadi senang, masalah bertukar menjadi peluang, masa depan kelihatan lebih cerah dan insyaAllah rezeki pun akan meluas. Fikiran-fikiran positif itu adalah doa berpanjangan yang kita panjatkan. Selama kita berfikiran positif, selama itulah menjadi satu pengharapan yang amat besar terhadap ALLAH.

5. Dapatkan tidur yang mencukupi
Rungsing dan marah-marah kadangkala disebabkan keletihan akibat tidak mendapat rehat yang mencukupi. Tidur yang tidak mencukupi akan mencetuskan arus theta atau arus delta, dua arus kemunduran.

6. Luahkan pada seseorang
Anda memerlukan seorang sahabat ketika anda berasa tidak stabil seperti ini, bahkan dalam suasana yang biasa pun anda memerlukan seorang sahabat.

7. Curahkan di atas kertas
Curahkan semua yang merunsingkan fikiran anda itu ke atas kertas. Curahkan segala-galanya tanpa tertinggal satu pun. Kemudian bakar dan hanyutkan ke sungai. Terasa lega.

8. Bersedia untuk berubah
Jangan teragak-agak untuk melakukan perubahan. Jika orang lain boleh, mengapa anda tidak? Apa istimewanya orang lain, sedang anda juga makhluk ALLAH yang dikurniakan dengan pelbagai kelebihan dan keistimewaan tertentu.

9. Cari kegemaran baru
Sesetengah daripada kesukaan kita akan sampai kepada penghujungnya. Hobi juga begitu. Maka apabila anda mula merasakan hidup ini mulai kosong carilah kegemaran-kegemaran baru. Tidak salah bermain game misalnya, untuk melihat adakah minat anda boleh tumbuh di sini.

10. Bertegaslah
Bertegaslah dengan diri anda sendiri. Apabila anda mengambil satu-satu keputusan anda berpegang teguh pada keputusan itu dengan meletakkan sepenuh kepercayaan bahawa anda akan berjaya.

9 ways to get happy in the next 30 minutes by Real Simple Magazine

Found a good article.
Here it goes, How to be happy in the next 30 minutes.

In the next half hour, tackle as many of the following suggestions as possible. Not only will these tasks themselves increase your happiness, but the mere fact that you've achieved some concrete goals will boost your mood.


Jay Gosney
1. Raise your activity level to pump up your energy. If you're on the phone, stand up and pace. Walk to a coworker's office instead of sending an e-mail. Put more energy into your voice. Take a brisk 10-minute walk. Even better...

2. Take a walk outside. Research suggests that light stimulates brain chemicals that improve mood. For an extra boost, get your sunlight first thing in the morning. Find the best walking workout for your exercise style.

3. Reach out. Send an e-mail to a friend you haven't seen in a while, or reach out to someone new. Having close bonds with other people is one of the most important keys to happiness. When you act in a friendly way, not only will others feel more friendly toward you, but you'll also strengthen your feelings of friendliness for other people.

4. Rid yourself of a nagging task. Deal with that insurance problem, purchase something you need, or make that long-postponed appointment with the dentist. Crossing an irksome chore off your to-do list will give you a rush of elation.

5. Create a more serene environment. Outer order contributes to inner peace, so spend some time organizing bills and tackling the piles in the kitchen. A large stack of little tasks can feel overwhelming, but often just a few minutes of work can make a sizable dent. Set the timer for 10 minutes and see what you can do. In that time, take a quick look around the house and see how to get organized using everyday items.

6. Do a good deed. Introduce two people by e-mail, take a minute to pass along useful information, or deliver some gratifying praise. In fact, you can also...

7. Save someone's life. Sign up to be an organ donor, and remember to tell your family about your decision. Do good, feel good―it really works!

8. Act happy. Fake it 'til you feel it. Research shows that even an artificially induced smile boosts your mood. And if you're smiling, other people will perceive you as being friendlier and more approachable. There's no need to walk around in a constant state of worry. After all, what's the worst that can happen if you bounce a check or leave wet clothes in the dryer?

9. Learn something new. Think of a subject that you wish you knew more about and spend 15 minutes on the Internet reading about it, or go to a bookstore and buy a book about it. But be honest! Pick a topic that really interests you, not something you think you "should" or "need to" learn about.

How to make small talk

Came across this articles,
quite useful for me ;)

Small talk can be a big challenge, but a little preparation and confidence is all you need. As a skilled small talker you will come across as a more open and friendly person, compared to someone who doesn't say much during social situations. Just don't overdo it because then people will find you annoying and too chatty.


Step1
Practice. Converse with everyone you come across: cashiers, waiters, people you're in line with, neighbors, co-workers and kids. Chat with folks unlike yourself, from seniors to teens to tourists.

Step2
Read everything: cookbooks, newspapers, magazines, reviews, product inserts, maps, signs and catalogs. Everything is a source of information that can be discussed.

Step3
Force yourself to get into small talk situations, like doctors' waiting rooms, cocktail parties and office meetings. Accept invitations, or host your own gathering.

Step4
Immerse yourself in culture, both high and low. Television, music, sports, fashion, art and poetry are great sources of chat. If you can't stand Shakespeare, that too is a good topic for talk.

Step5
Keep a journal. Write down funny stories you hear, beautiful things you see, quotes, observations, shopping lists and calls you made. That story of the long-distance operator misunderstanding you could become an opening line.

Step6
Talk to yourself in the mirror. Make a random list of topics and see what you have to say on the subjects. Baseball, Russia, butter, hip-hop, shoes ...the more varied your list, the better.

Step7
Expand your horizons. Go home a new way. Try sushi. Play pinball. Go online. Paint a watercolor. Bake a pie. Try something new every day.

Step8
Be a better listener. Did your boss just say she suffers from migraines? Did your doctor just have twins? These are opportunities for making small talk.

Step9
Work on confidence, overcoming shyness and any feelings of stage fright. Remember, the more you know, the more you know you can talk about

One step at a time . Cant afford to loose more time anymore :(

i'm searching for a place call home~

I have a blog

Finally, I had a blog. i wanna express all my stuck feelings, thoughts and deliver it the right way. in more positive ways. unlike before.
What should i start first?

i managed to get a job already,( mind you nowadays it is quite hard to land on a job), a contract job which is good to me since a lot of me needs to be mended, to take care of, and of course to change to be a better me.

To be honest, i've started the job quite not so good, since right now i'm still recovering. Its hard to deal with mentally challenged people since they are so healthy and fit. But i'm glad i had been given this opportunity to improve myself (I hope so).

My biggest obstacles would be communication, and a stuck brain. I find it so hard to think at a time. I guess theres so much things that i need to take care of that really makes my brain goes freezed all the time.
