Contrarian

What is/are the truth(s) that you believe in which very few people agree with you?

Mine:
  • Eat alot a lot of fats, they are not harmful. Don't eat rice/bread/noodles/potatoes/corns/grains/wheats, they are not only not good but toxic.
  • Newspapers, tv news, social media news, radio news, and anything about news are not only as useless as rubbish, but as harmful as poisons.
  • Reading and "Knowledge" is overrated. They are not as good as you think. The people who read the most might be the stupidest and the most ignorant (drown by information)
  • Failure, "Just Do It!" and "Take Risks" are overrated. 
  • "Work Hard" and "Work Smart" are both wrong. 
  • "Planning" is the most useless activity on Earth. 
  • The smartest person in a gigantic company might be stupider than the dumbest person in a small company.
  • Economic inequality and income gaps are good things. They are signs of society's progress. 
  • Policy making, politicians, governments are all placebos. They don't change and improve society, they can't even affect anything. 
  • The current that you see = The past that you should have seen 30 years ago. The future that you will only see 30 years later = The actual current. 
  • "Ideas" is an euphemism for "Stupidity". Silence is an anti-euphemism for "Intelligence". 
  • If no one ever says that you are ridiculous, you are not doing things worth doing.
  • Good things are much worse than you think and bad things are much better than you think. Actively seek bad things instead of shunning them, don't actively seek good things (I don't mean that you should shun good things).
  • If you have not had a fierce conflict with the person in front of you, the relationship between you and him/her is superficial. You should anticipate conflicts not good times when you make a new friend/partner. 
  • the correlation between growth and pain is higher than 0.5 lower than 1
  • credentials are inversely proportional to reliability/trustworthiness. Beware of people with high credentials, and seek for people with low credentials 
  • advice that is the most useful for you are words that you hated the most and feel like disregarding the most (therefore not heeding them). advice that you like and you feel that they are profound and you feel like applying them straight are advice that is most useless for you. [Most of the time when we are looking for advice, we weren't looking for advice, we were merely looking for someone external to say something that we want to hear/to affirm what we have already thought]

End of The Life with Phones :(

Image
29th July 2011 Officially, I ended my career as a Marketing Executive (ME) in Teledirect Telecommerce Pte. Ltd. 3 months ago, simply surfing in Jobstreet.com, and simply clicking few jobs without studying much details (tikam only..haha) And dramatically, I got a chance for interview, and then get hired. Never thought i will work for such job in my life..sometime destiny and luck are really fishy XD Start from that moment, my hectic lifestyle started. I have to wake up at 6.30am everyday Take ride on the BEST transportation in Malaysia >>> KTM and went back home late at night.. And really live like a typical white collar, wearing formal everyday My task ? sell credit cards from Public Bank to customers through phones ! My first impression was : OMG..isit posible for customer to commit such thing through a phone call only? After a few weeks..I found the answer is, YES. Practice makes perfect. Faced lots of problems at first, some customers will hang up the ca

UKM-Law Interview

Image
Yes. Finally I’ve time to blog about this. After a week. Another important interview, after the interviews of JPA and Petronas at last year. An interview to UKM for enrollment into Bachelor of Law(LLB).Unlike the two interviews I went last time, I had done a lot of preparation and 'homework' before I go for the battle ! Because I know, this interview is important enough to determine my future, although it's just my second choice. But I really hope to get to study law. Depart early in the morning, but still almost late to there (due to critical traffic jam =S)..luckily it's 'almost' only~It is a campus located in Bangi, about 40 mins from my home. Faculty of Law - UKM My Name Tag..Lucky Number 39?=S After I had finished a simple registration procedure, we were called upon to enter a waiting room. When I just stepped into the room, a weird feeling came upon me, I felt stress and unwell...I saw lot of my competitors, all with face of confidence and intelligence. Bu

Regards to Datuk :)

Again, the outcome was totally same as Asian Game last year..or even the Beijing Olympic three years ago. Yes, sad to hear that again. When the shuttlecock clashed with the net, the hearts of all Malaysians broke. A very few secs determined everything, he disappointed 27.5 millions of people again. However, the process was totally different. Or I've to say, it was awesome. Compared to the past few times, he changed alot. From the thorough lost in Beijing until the undifferentiated lost in London today. Not only for the technical skills, but more happy to see that he has developed a strong mentality. Agree to one of my friends, the measure of achievement is not in winning awards. Yes, the truth is, he lost. But, he lost nothing actually. The only difference between them, is only the hand-preferred. Luck and faith play an important role. Some may be frustrated. Why is the history keep repeating ? Quote from the advice I got from my friends during UPU announcement,
