Decision

EVERYTIME CHOICES ARE MADE, OPPORTUNITY COSTS ARE INCURRED

Have you ever experience when you can't make a decision? Especially the decision that you think will affect your career and the whole of your life. I do, in fact I'm really in dillema. After a few months juggling pros and cons, I still cannot decide which one to choose. Getting opinions from my siblings and friends making me to have a really bad headache.

Sometimes I think I have made a wrong decision started from the beginning. Let say, at the first place I want A and I was offered to have B. So, I thought B was the best opportunity for me but at the same time I never released A because my strategy, it was for precaution purposes. But after went through many courses and listening to many opinions and views, I started to think it over and over again until I couldn't choose between A and B. This ia chance a of a lifetime, I might lose both if my decision is thought to be wrong by my Dean.

Eventhough, that I said I still cannot make a choice, but I did made a decision which is a mid decision between two. I thought that was the best decision and I would have more times to think. But I was wrong. For now, I think my decision is wrong the worst decision I ever made! I overlooked certain factors and consequences and it is really preasurred me. I regretted for the decision I had made. I should choose between two and not taking the middle way. My problem will be solved if I choose either or started from the beginning and never listen for what ever people said. Now, I'm quite helpless and not in the full spirit especially when people asking or talking about my undecided choices. Sometimes it is a phobia for when my friends open their mouth asking me A or B. Criticism will be made either I choose A or B.

Taking from my friend's words, life indeed is a survival. Making a decision is part of survival techniques. No matter how hard it is to make a decision, we still have to make a decision, we still have to do it. In my case, sometimes I just hope that fate will take me to whatever path it choose. However, when thinking back, I have power to choose. I have my mind to decide, I have strength to do whatever I choose to do, and I have a lot of things bestowed upon me by the gracious lord. So, why should I become helpless creatures just waiting something to be on them??? I have to decide but for now there is no result for my decision. He3x

Birthday

On the 26th July, I celebrated my birthday. Nothing special happened on that day except there were few things that really touched my heart. The thoughts and wishes from my friends and students. Thank you to all of you for reminding me I'm getting one year older. Thanks to Siti for your wishes and doa early in the morning, Kak Rusnah for your lovely 'paun', Fiza for your call and my former students for their wishes and Ferrero Rocher ( I think I'm a good lecturer coz my students remember what I said in class. He3x. My examples in the class for the topic of demand and supply and international trade are always Ferrero Rocher. That is my favourite chocolate and in fact I eat only two types of chocolates Ferrero Rocher and Hersheys. That was really an implicit example but my students understand explicitly). Lastly, I was really touched when Is (my bestfriend since i was in university) gave a long call from Sarawak, singing happy birthday with her husky voice ( she got a soar throat), but it was a really nice song I ever heard. Is, I think if you get bored with your job right now, you should joined AF lah. It is not a gift that is really important but the thought that makes me really happy. I'm truly happy on that day. Again, thanks to all of you for cheering up my day. Love all of you!.

WHAT IS HAPPINESS?

According to Webster’s Third New International Dictionary’, happiness is a state of well-being characterized by relative permanence, by dominantly agreeable emotion ranging in value from mere contentment to deep and intense joy in living, and by a natural desire for its continuation. "In the distinction between this term and its synonyms (i.e., felicity, beatitude, blessedness, bliss), it defines HAPPINESS" as the general term denoting enjoyment of or pleasure able satisfaction in well-being, security, or fulfillment of wishes.

Some students of education and psychology define HAPPINESS as the continued feeling or state of delight, contentment, and joy emanating from the permanent sense of self-goodness, goodness of life and goodness of man’s destiny.

Different individuals and groups of people may have different ideas with regard to the best ways of achieving happiness. However, there are several theories and speculations which many a people share as constituting the main sources of happiness. These may be classified as follows:
(1) Wealth
(2) Rank and position.
(3) Educational achievements (Academic and Honorary Degrees).
(4) Fame (i.e., in politics, arts, sports, science, etc.).

Wealth is, probably, the element mostly associated, if not synonymous, with happiness as many people think. This understanding so deeprooted in the hearts of so many, to the extent that almost everywhere people are engrossed in the acquisition of wealth. They look towards wealth as the primal constituent of happiness to the point that for them the two are entwined.
How happy are those men and women who own business empires, wide expanses of land and estates, large bank deposits, etc?

Many indeed are those people who own millions or even billions but are suffering from an almost permanent lack of peace of mind as a result of the fear they have over their wealth the fear of, say, political turmoils, market movements, wars, plunders, theft, etc. And not only does such fear lead to sleepless nights for these people but even tensions, mental anguish, heart attacks and deaths. You can see the example of Christina Onasis, Ferdinand Marcos, Nicolae Ceausescu and etc. Rich but unhappy!. So guys happiness is very subjective and depending on the individuals. Be happy of yourselves.

Be Yourself

"Your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think of you."


All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was. I accepted their answers too, though they were often in contradiction and even self-contradictory. I was naïve. I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer. It took me a long time and much painful boomeranging of my expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have been born with: that I am nobody but myself.

Don't Be Afraid To Be Yourself

In a world of comparisons

and conformity,

make your own statement

Honour your own truth

Have the courage to be yourself

Risk speaking your own thoughts

and claiming your emotions

Share your vulnerabilties

fears, doubts and insecurities

let other experience the real you.

Have the courage to be yourself

and realize that you are

a wonderful person.

Economist

The master economist .... must be a mathematician, historian, statesman, philosoper...He must understand symbols and speak in words....He must study the present in the light of the past for the purposes of the future - John Maynard Keynes.

I don't understand why a lot of my students dislike Economics subject especially those who are not in business school. Sometimes I wonder whether they dislike Economics because of the nature of the subject or because they dislike Economics lecturer? When I ask about it to my students, their answers; too many curves and graphs - difficult to understand, too many assumptions - tidak tercapai akalku berfikir, too many calculations - I hate calculation, too many theories - my study need more skills than theories and etc. Thanks God as far as I concern none of my students gave reasons because he or she dislikes the economics lecturer. One of my students from Diploma of Hotel Management asked me why he should learn my subject. For him, it just a waste of time and not related to his study and he is not interested. I gave reasons and examples to him why he should learn economics and I said to him " Believe me, if you still can't understand today why you should learn economics, one day if you are working in your field, you will find that you are using a lot of economics theories". He believed in what I said and scored A for my paper.
