“Liar Liar”

When I was kid, my parent always thought me that lying is bad. 'Liar will go to hell' that what they always said. That time, when I did something bad to them, at 1st I want to make up some stories, but at the end, I will tell them the truth. Maybe because of the 'hell' thing or maybe because of whenever I telling lie, I felt this some sort of feeling. Don’t know how to describe it but, it feels bad. Really bad. Believe it or not, I still feel the same feeling until now.

When I was in high school, I will turn green like incredible hulks when I caught people lying to me. There’s one time I beat up my junior for being a liar. I beat him hard. Real hard. Wierdo. That time I hate 2 thing.1 People lying 2. Not confirm situation. Who ever or whatever falls in this category will turn me mad. Real mad. But now, lie is part of the community and to make it worst, its part of life. People lie to survive.

Lets look at most common office environment. Marketing people, almost all of them are liars. Lie to the client to tackle BIG reward (One of the reason, why I hate marketing). But what to do, they lie for survive.

Politics; full of lies. Hard to find trusted man in politics. Based on my experiences (following my ex-boss campaign for his vote during election), no body can be trusted. Not single one. Today heard ‘A’ from their mouth, an hour later; it will be ‘B’. Damm politicians.

Early days even now, I still heard people said 'bohong sunat'.Is this type of lie exist? Not sure beb. But what I understand, this type of lie, like a small matter. Lies that only give tiny impact. Is it true? This kind of lies always has been use in relationship. No matter what kind of relationship; parent-sons, husband-wife, boyfriend-girlfriend.

Now, lies, bit by bit have been part of my life. Is it a good sign or bad sign? Not sure. But one thing for sure, I will not gave lies opportunity to take control of me. Until now, I still hate people lying to me, but the different from before, this time, I will not turn green.

"Getting Rich Or Die Trying : Part 2"

When u do your own bizz,u must have a mentor. Actually, in what ever u did, u must have a mentor because, u start from zero. My 1st mentor is my experienced. Even though, previously I’m working under people hat, I managed to 'steal' some knowledge of basic bizz flow. Not much, but enough for a start. But, to manage/maintain a bizz, u must know every aspect.

The most important thing, marketing. Yup, marketing. I hate this thing. Thank god, among all of my frenz, some of them did their own 'periuk nasik' & one of them, can be categories as success. He managed to develop back his own father bizz that nearly 'tutup', to better level. Now he can even support his whole family. As good as he is, he guide me through the process especially the marketing part etc.He once said to me 'Kenape, org nak buat bisness? Kenape kite choose to make your own business? It's not bout the money, its all bout passion'.

When i look back, all the tycoons did this because of they have passion. Syed Mokhtar Al-Bukhari, once nearly bankrupt, but because of passion, he managed to build back his empire. Lim Goh Tong, before he had Genting, he's already a made man. He put a risk by put all his assets to develop Genting.Even, some of his colleagues called him a mad man. But at the end of the day, who’s the man?

At 1st, when people asked me, what driven you? I said 'money'. Now, if someone ask, I will reply back 'passion'. Why? When u don’t have passion in what u do, it will failed. Trust me. Some says, passion can be developed. To me, that what i called 'bonus', because, the chance is 50/50.

Because of that, for a start, every pay- cheque that I got from my client, I didn't touch them.We didn't touch 'em. All, I put into my company acc. Why? Later, I don’t want people to know me as a single entity. I want them to know the company that own by me. So, I’ve to develop my own company 1st. Stage by stage.

But every plan has its flaws, so do mine. Because of my strategies, all my expenses covered from my saving fund. But never regret. So, to survive, I move to plan B while plan A in progress. I continue sit under others people wing in a mission to gathered more knowledge to accumulate wealth. So, if u asks me now ‘Are you getting Rich or Die trying?’ My answer will be in progress to getting rich but will not die trying. I’m +ly sure bout that!
