ROBERT T.KIYOSAKI

FAILURE

   In 1974, Robert Kiyosaki left the Marines, found a job as sales executive for Xerox Company. A fourth-generation  Japanese American, Kiyosaki was born and raised in Hawaii. After graduating from Hilo High School, he attended U.S. Merchant Marine Academy in New York, graduating with the class of 1969 as a deck officer. Later, he served in the Marine Corps as a helicopter gunship pilot during the Vietnam War, where he was awarded the Air Medal. Kiyosaki began doing what he went to school to learn, that is he worked on and traveled on merchant ships. The experience of traveling the world had a profound effect on him, and once experienced it made it difficult for Kiyosaki to return back to Hawaii. The voyages on these merchant ships would take him all over the world. He would be exposed to new cultures, new ways of life and extreme forms of poverty that cannot be found back in the United States of America. This taste of the world and experience of different cultures would lead him to a new path. Perhaps of giving back to his country for the opportunity to experience what he did or perhaps for the world he discovered and his belief that everyone deserves democracy and the chance to choose, and make something out of oneself, whatever the reason may be Kiyosaki was eventually drawn to join the United States Marine Corps and was sent to Vietnam.

   Upon returning to the United States of America, Kiyosaki was exposed to a whole new world. Instead of returning to Hawaii, Kiyosaki instead choose to go back to New York. Once there, he quickly began working for the Xerox Corporation which specializes in printing and photocopying. Kiyosaki worked in the sales department of the Xerox Corporation and was assigned the position of salesman. Couple of years later, Kiyosaki started up his own business for the first time. He made a moderate profit. It was Kiyosaki’s first venture in the business world and as an entrepreneur, he made some mistakes. But, Kiyosaki acknowledges that there were things that he was not aware such as patents and trademarks that hampered the degree of his success. The surfer wallets would eventually end up becoming a multi-million dollar product and Kiyosaki would receive his first real taste of what being an entrepreneur is all about. Not only just that but Kiyosaki learnt what being financially successful is about and the knowledge that it could be obtained. Besides that, Kiyosaki was so very close to hitting a home run off his first at bat.

 

    So his first venture in business was not as successful as only one could hope and dream, but none the less, experience is valuable, as the knowledge derived from it can be the deciding factor the next time around. So Kiyosaki continued his journey of an entrepreneur, continuing to venture off in new businesses and investment opportunities. The next business was almost similar in nature due to the targeted consumer as Kiyosaki’s attention shifted from Surfers and their wallets, to Rockers and their favourite heavy metal band t-shirts which the business was highly successful. Kiyosaki experienced financial success in the mid nineteen eighties with his second business venture in the rock music merchandise licensing. But with a change of trends, the mainstream turned away from the heavy metal and hardcore bands and began listening to different, softer music. His heavy metal t-shirt licensing business bankrupt and definitely in a bad place as it even left him homeless.

SUCCESS

   Robert Kiyosaki would get married during this time to Kim Kiyosaki, in 1984. Kim Kiyosaki was also an entrepreneur and would prove to be quite valuable in many ways. Not only being the love of  Kiyosaki’s life, a partner for life, she would also become a business partner. Not giving up the practice of investing in real estate and playing the stock market, Kiyosaki continued his business endeavors. Although, now Kiyosaki had much more time on his hands and he began to write during his time off. Feeling like he knew a secret and a talent to share knowledge, Kiyosaki continued his path as an educator, following the footsteps of his poor dad, as he also followed the advice and guidance of his rich dad in becoming financially successful. Kiyosaki found a way, a medium to fuse them both together, both talents learnt from both his rich dad and poor dad, for the benefit of people around the world. This is when Kiyosaki began exploring his ideas and concepts, synthesizing his knowledge and life experiences and began working on the writing of Rich Dad, Poor Dad. Although, Kiyosaki did not write alone, he teamed up with Sharon Lechter and together they co-wrote the first Rich Dad, Poor Dad book. That book would later go on to sell more than ten million books and become a bestseller. But all this success did not come right away or easily.

   Before getting Rich Dad, Poor Dad published, Kiyosaki and Sharon Lechter were trying to sell it to publishers. After being dismissed much, they published it on their own. Together with Kim Kiyosaki, the three of them founded Cashflow Technologies, Inc. Under this title many companies would come to be formed bellow it and the Rich Dad, Poor Dad series would become a brand that brought about much success.

Everybody knows about it but certain individuals only do this things..!

Benda ini selalunya dekat budak-budak kecil sahaja kita bagi tahu, lebih kurang macam mengajar mereka ini untuk kenali kehidupan dan mengajar mereka menguruskan diri. Tapiiiiiii sekarang saya mahu bagi tahu kepada semua orang, bukan untuk budak-budak sahaja.okeh?

Mula-mula, benda ini simple sahaja, lepas makan kena BASUH.. kalau dah malas sangat sebab perut dah sengkak, buat reminder dekat handphone.. jangan tinggal sampai berhari-hari, dah berulat habis dah time itu.. eg: saya ada jumpa seorang insan ini, time itu memang tak boleh bla.. dia masak maggi, lepas makan dia bangun dan terus tinggal.. dalam hati saya dia nak rehat kejap dulu kot.. tapi lepas 3hari, saya tengok maggi itu dah tak macam maggi.. saya tegur dia, saya takut dia tak perasan pasal maggi itu then last-last dia ambil magkuk yang berisi sisa-sisa maggi berulat itu dan terus buang ke dalam tong sampah. Sungguh dasyat kemalasan beliau..

Lepas itu, kalau nak basuh pinggan, senang sahaja, ambil sabun dan basuh. Tetapi before that, buang semua sia-sia makanan ke dalam tong sampah.. jangan buang dalam sink.. habis tersumbat sink tersebut.. bila dah tersumbat, kita semua buat-buat tidak perlukan sink tersebut dan cari sink lain.. memang tidak baik perangai di situ yeee.. eg: saya ada la pergi ke sebuah program dan saya ditugaskan untuk menjaga bahagian pinggan mangkuk.. saya bukan kena jadi tukang basuh pinggan mangkuk tapi saya kena perhatikan mereka-mereka ini membasuh pinggan mereka selepas selasai mengunyah.. lepas 5orang membasuh pinggan, sink itu sudah tersumbat.. Alhamdulillah syukur mereka sangat prihatin di situ.. dan saya terpaksa mengambil sisa-sisa tersebut menggunakan tangan.. baik sungguh mereka itu yeeeee.. bagi saya kerja, kira macam saya tak makan gaji buta laaa..

Yang seterusnya, nak cakap pasal sampah.. banyak sungguh hari ini cakap pasal sampah.. memang tak tahan dah pasal sampah ini.. mula-mula, nak buang sampah, pastikan tong sampah tersebut melengkapi plastic sampah yeee.. kalau dekat tempat public, tidak mengapa.. tapi kalau dekat bilik ka, rumah kita ka.. pastikan ada plastic sampah baru anda boleh membuang sampah.. haaaa, tetapi eg: anda pergi ke pasar malam dan membeli air yang berharga RM!.00/ RM1.20, bekas tersebut anda jangan buang terus.. kalau ada sisa-sisa ais, buang dahulu ais itu ke dalam sink.. kalau anda tidak membuang, nanti ais tersebut cair dan menjadi air yang melimpah keluar dari tong sampah itu.. satu bilik dan rumah anda akan berbau.. habis lah, nak tidur, study, tengok movie, semua terjejas kerana bau tersebut.. tidak enak!    

Ok, kita ke bahagian baju.. lepas pakai baju, gantung, jangan hentam terus atas katil.. kalu ye pun, letak dalam baldi.. senang kan..?? kalau anda mahu basuh baju, untuk mereka yang tidak guna washing machine, guna tangan.. anda kena perahhhh habis-habisan air tersebut sebelum gantung di tempat yang disediakan.. eg: saya duduk apartmen time belajar, maybe arkitek yang buat apartmen itu MC time lecture dia mengajar untuk membuat empayan baju.. jadi dia design tidak betul.. kalau saya hang clothes, orang atas punye baju boleh menitik dia atas baju saya.. sungguh best tengok keadaan begitu.. baju saya dibasuh 2x.. hehehe.. jadi orang atas tolong perah baju.. dan sesiapa yang hang baju dekat dengan baju saya, tolong jangan curi pengepit saya.. kalau anda mahu, datang ke rumah saya, saya bagi 1papan pengepit untuk kamu secara percuma.. ok..?? baju saya 3pasang dah diterbangkan.. jadi jangan mencuri lagi pengepit saya..!!

Lastly, to all buddies, please take care your hygiene.. tak elok jadi pengotor dan kurang etika.. Senang cerita, jangan bagi orang tegur banyak kali sangat, macam orang tidak reti jew… kk.. bye..

UNEMPLOYMENT PROBLEM

 The problem of unemployment is a world-wide reality. The developed countries like the U.S., England, France, Germany, Italy, etc. also suffer from this problem, but it is more pronounced in India. With the passage of time it has become worse. It has become a threat to India’s economic well-being and social development. It is one of the major causes of our poverty, backwardness, crimes and frustration among the people. India is the second largest country after China in terms of populations and man-power. But because of large scale unemployment there is no suitable employment for them. They are forced to remain idle.

            There are millions of young men and women waiting and waiting for job opportunities. This chronic problem of unemployment is not confirmed to any particular class, segment or society. It is all pervading. There is massive unemployment among educated, well-trained and skilled people, and it is also there among semi-skilled and unskilled laborers, small and marginal farmers and workers. Then there is underemployment. The jobs being created have miserably failed to keep pace with the ever increasing number of job-seekers. It is a problem which presents a great challenge to leaders, thinkers, planners, economists, industrialists and educationists.

            Our education system should be reviewed and changed according to our present needs. Like factories our universities, colleges and schools are still producing on a large scale, a rich crop of graduates fit only for white collar jobs in these offices. These graduates are fit only for such jobs as those of clerks, assistants, officers and bureaucrats sitting at tables in the offices. These educated but unemployed youths numbering millions and millions are a source of great anxiety and concern. Our education should be work-oriented. It should be such as enables a person to stand on his own feet instead of depending on others. It is really an irony that our highly educated and trained personnel like engineers, doctors, scientists etc. run after the government jobs. It is perhaps because of the education system started by the Bruisers long ago, which has totally lost its relevance and still prevails. They depend too much on the government and lack the courage and inspiration to stand on their own feet. There should be more and more emphasis on vocational education. There should be more and more technical institutions and training centers. Indiscriminate and unplanned admissions in colleges and universities should also be checked. Higher education should be reserved only for those who really deserved it.

            To alleviate this problem of unemployment and under-employment in villages a progressive employment scheme called Jawahar Rozgar Yojana was introduced in 1989. Over 440 laky families living under the poverty-line are likely to benefit from it. More such schemes are need to create gainful employment opportunities for scheduled tribes, scheduled castes and other backward classes and communities in the rural areas of the country. The rural unemployment has been a major contributory factor of this highest incidence of poverty in spite of our efforts towards development and industrialization.

COMMENT:

It's a recession when your neighbor loses his job; it's a depression when you lose your own.  ~Harry S. Truman~

When we heard about unemployment, we will feel like dying. We will worried about our own future, money, life, married, luxury and everything. But we forget to think about one thing…LUCK! Everybody have their own luck.

Steps to Soften the Price Increase Blow

Even the most sales savvy among us have had to fight back the nerves that materialize whenever we are faced with telling a customer about a price increase. Talking about it never makes for an easy conversation.
When discussing a price increase in a business-to-business environment, it is important to remember that our customers have probably had to have the same discussion with their own customers. A company exists only as long as it earns a profit and it can only do that if it delivers a quality product or service at the right price. This means that the key to any conversation about raising the price is to emphasize that such an increase will ensure product quality.
As you begin to prepare your strategy for communicating a price increase, ask yourself the following questions:

1. Does the customer take your product/service and add a standard percentage increase in price when selling to their customers?

If this is the case, you can point out that your customer will make more money by taking a standard percentage of a higher amount.

2. What percentage of the customer’s business is your product/service?

If the percentage is small, tell them that the amount of increase is only a small percentage of their total business. If the percentage is great, then you can emphasize that the price increase is necessary to maintain the level of product quality necessary for them to serve their customers.

3. Has the customer faced any other price increases from other vendors?

If so, try to identify what some percentages of the other increases have been. If yours falls into the low end, then you can point out how your increase is comparatively smaller than that of many others. If your increase is at the high end, you can either explain how yours is the only one you expect to take or that you wouldn't be surprised to see others coming back to take another round of price increases.

4. How does the customer view you and the products/services you sell?

If you have a quality reputation and record, then you can emphasize that the increase has been carefully thought through and it is only being taken to ensure continued quality. If you have a spotty record with the customer, then you should stress how the price increase will allow you to begin addressing some of the issues in question by allowing you to improve the overall quality of service they have been receiving. Naturally, it is important to make sure all comments are backed with a commitment to follow-through.

5. Will the customer raise an issue with the price increase?

Be prepared to show documentation of how your costs have escalated and how other companies are experiencing the same increases. (An example is the increasing cost of oil, which has forced any company that uses petroleum in the manufacturing or transportation of goods to most likely increase prices.)
When having this discussion, be sure to show empathy for the customer, but remain firm in what you're saying. If the customer senses any hesitation on your part, they will likely try to exploit it in the form of a price concession from you.
Also, be prepared to share steps that your company has taken in an attempt to avoid a price increase. This can include ways you've already cut costs or how the price increase is the only way to maintain the quality and service the customer expects. A final point to emphasize is the time lag between this price increase and the previous increase. Having information available concerning the rate of inflation during that specific time period may also help diffuse the issue.

6. Why does the customer buy from you anyway?

Knowing this will allow you to reinforce these points when talking about the price increase. You should also have ready at least two key needs of the customer that your product or service satisfies. Be sure all of your strategic information about the customer is up-to-date before a price increase is announced.

7. How much business is at risk from the customer?

We can sometimes get carried away thinking that if we raise prices, we'll lose the customer, even though this is rarely the case. Think through what steps the customer would have to take to move to another vendor. Many times the work involved in moving is not worth the effort, and thus the business is less at risk than thought.
Now that you have a price increase strategy mapped out, let's have a look at actually presenting the price increase to your customers. On the next page, Mark Hunter presents tips for presenting a price increase.

COMMENT: If the price increase, we as a consumer have to make sure that every time we want go for a shopping, we have already list down what are the important things that we have to buy. Avoid from buy unnecessary things because it full of wastage.

YOUNG PEOPLE AND CRIME

Adolescence and early adulthood are times of change when young people face new challenges, growth and increased vulnerability. Their behavior can be very visible and be a matter of concern to their families, to local residents, and the wider community.

WHY TARGET YOUNG PEOPLE?

Adolescence and early adulthood are crucial times in an individual’s life. It is when young people face new challenges, learn new skills, coping mechanism and lead more independent lives. During adolescence, many young people brave in taking a multiple of risks. In their teens young people may experience with drugs, drink alcohol while underage or drive vehicles without a license and before reaching the legal age limit.

RISK  FACTORS

1.       Substance use

2.       Early school leaving

3.       Gender (boys are more likely to offend than girls)

4.       Abuse – especially abuse during the transition to high school

5.       Unemployment

6.       Lack of supervision

Although some young people are perpetrators of crime, many young people are also victims of crime. The one of the examples of victims of crime is sexual violence. The sexual violence may occur in any type of relationship. Among victims age 18 to 29, two-thirds had a prior relationship with the offender. Research shows 6 in 10 rape or sexual assault victims said they were assaulted by the intimate partner, relative, friend or acquaintance.

   Besides that, early abuse is one of the victims of perpetrators. Although child sexual abuse before age 13 is not by itself a risk factor for adult sexual victimization or domestic violence, girls who were victimized before turning 12 and then again as adolescents (ages 13-17) were at much greater risk of both types of victimization as adults than any other woman.

   In a nutshell, as a young people, think wisely before do something is the most powerful ways to avoid from be criminals. The peaceful of a country is in the young people’s hand which behavior and education playing the most important roles. All the best to all the young people. Keep peaceful and live in happiest. 

COMMENT: youngsters! please be somebody that can make our country success. Being know to outsiders is something wonderful when it's comes to positive or good things. Study hard and smart, help our self, other peoples and  our country. GOOD LUCK.. ALWAYS HAVE OUR OWN TARGET.. =)
