Salam sejahtera ....
Hari ini saya bercuti...maklumlah cuti sekolah. Walaupun tak sempat nak bawa famili makan angin jauh-jauh pada kali ini, saya dapat juga bawa mereka pagi tadi ke Lake town Resort di Bukit Merah.
Budak-budak kalau dah dapat main air - tak ingat dunia lagi dah ....:-) Kalau zaman aku kecil-kecil dulu mandi sungai jer lah.... Kalau nak pi mandi sangat, paling sempoi zaman tur kena lah pergi ke Port Dickson atau Batu Feringhi.
Aku sempat juga belek-belek laptop lama aku yang dah rosak LCDnya malam tadi. Aku cadang nak pakai balik laptop tur dan sambungkan kepada deskop monitor yang aku sedia ada. Lagipun selepas maghrib tadi aku ke kedai perabut beli meja komputer yang nak aku letakkan kat dalam bikik aku aka setor....
Aku buka laptop tersebut dan aku check balik dokumen - dokumen lama dalam "My documents". Aku buka dokumen tahun 2003 dan dalam salah satu folder tur ada folder "My Stuff" yang selalunya aku masukkan semua slides yang aku buat seperti matlamat, wawasan dan planning aku di dalam tahun 2003.
Aku buka salah satu slide yang aku buat dalam tahun 2003 bertajuk "My Dream". Tur dia muka satu tulis .... "Be my own boss at the end of 2005". Dan aku buka slides demi slides... ak target pendapatan RM15,000 sebulan pada penghujung 2005 bagi membolehkan aku bersara dari kerja dan work from home !
Kalau di campurkan pendapatan sampingan aka residual aku dengan
Smart Naco dan
Public Mutual (Unit trust) untuk bulan Julai aku dah mencecah matlamat aku 5 bulan lebih awal !!!!!
Dan... aku tulis target aku tur dalam tahun 2003 semasa aku belum lagi buat unit trust dengan
Public Mutual (May 2004) dan juga
Smart Naco (April 2005). Sebab itu aku tulis tulis title kali ini seperti di atas.... memang aku FOKUS untuk mendapatkan sesuatu pada tahun 2005 bagi membolehkan aku bersara..... Alhamdullilah aku ketemu dengan Smart Naco.
Itu sebabnya kalau anda jumpa user "trend2005" biasanya itulah aku, Khairul Aza - yang memberikan sepenuh FOKUS untuk mencapai impian ku pada tahun 2005.
Di sini aku terbaca satu artikel tentang "intention" nie di dalam CoachVille Newsletter... baik aku sertakan di bawah ini untuk anda baca dan fahamkan... okay !

http://www.movie.ws/trend2005Setting Intentions by Maria Andreu
Recently, I found a list of intentions I’d written late last year. At the top of the list: become VP of Marketing and Communications for CV. When I wrote it, there was no good reason to think that would come to pass, but upon finding this old list I realized it had happened within 2 months of my writing it down.
The magic of the universe? Yes and no.
Looking over that list, I realize that many of the 10 or so things I wrote as my intentions for 2005 have become reality. Is it the miraculous and elusive act of putting things out into the ether that magically attracts them into our lives? On my more woo-woo days, I think so. Or is it the rational act of getting clear about one’s goals and keeping them front of mind, thus being more open to opportunity and clearer in one’s requests? On my more logical and “thinking” days, that’s the explanation I give myself. On days of balance, yin and yang, light and dark, I know the answer is both and neither. Logic, magic and intention fuse into the creation that is my life which I both author and receive, a gift from a smiling universe.
We chose this issue to feature the act of intention and deliberate creation because for many of us it’s a time of “getting back to business” after relaxed days of summer. As we shift gears into exploring our opportunities, our next steps, our desired outcomes, it helps to take a step back and look at the larger tapestry of our lives. What is it we are looking to create? What are we here to contribute?
Setting intentions is merely the act of deciding and making that decision known, be it to our friends, our coaches and accountability partners or simply in a whispered dream to the attentive universe. It is a statement of desired outcome.
Living a life of deliberate intention can infuse your existence with purpose, color and breath in a way that few things can. Rather than a mismatched collection of separate and random acts, a life lived with intention strings together all your actions and efforts into a cohesive whole that glows with meaning.
So what is your intention for today? What do you want to create?What about this month?What are your intentions for your business through the end of the year? The next 365 days? The next 5 years?
Taking a few moments to write the answers to those questions can radically alter how you experience the world. Henriette Anne Klauser in her great book Write It Down, Make It Happen (see the end of this article for a collection of suggested resources around intention), tells the story, similar to my own, of her 12-year-old son finding a two-year-old list of intentions while cleaning his room (I hope next she writes the book letting us know how to get a 12-year-old to clean his room). The list, long-forgotten, contained intentions for his young life that one by one had come true. This and many anecdotes in her book reveal the enticing possibility: what if is as simple as asking for what you want?
Again, in this I have both spiritual and pragmatic (and pragmatically spiritual) views on the subject. Too often have I been touched by the breeze of magic to believe there is a rational explanation for everything. And yet, it’s about much more than writing down your intentions and going off to take a nap. Intentions, in their gauzy essence full of hope and possibility, must be married with action plans and real effort to bring about results.
I love Amelia Earhart on this subject:
"The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward." Amelia Earhart
Intention is that decision to act, the pointing of your effort in that one focused direction. It’s where some of our modern “feel-good” intention work falls short. Yes, it’s powerful to state your intentions. Yes, manifesting is a force of the universe impossible to grasp with the limited faculty of reason. And yet, you’ll find that with everyone that has achieved their intentions (including the inspirational authors who write about intentions), behind the big dream is also tenacity, focused endeavor and determination.
I once heard a wonderful presenter say in a moment of levity, “The universe will give you about $2,000 in coaching fees a month if you decide to go with the attraction principle of marketing. After that you need to put some elbow grease into it.” Of course he was half kidding, since every successful person knows we often attract things without knowing exactly how. And yet we are mistaken to only hope and pray and intend. The other part of that equation is to listen with an open heart to what the universe says in response to your requests and then do those things, putting voice and action behind spirit.
I leave you with a quote that, besides its lyrical beauty, holds the key to all of your success, the marriage of intention and action. As you take the time over the next few days to create your future, keep it often in your mind and spirit and let its wisdom suffuse your being:
"Whatever you think you can do or believe you can do, begin it. Action has magic, grace and power in it." Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Be inspired!
