Your Future, Your Fortune

I would like to get some things straight. There have been people that I have come across with and by listening to their confessions and experiences, I just feel sorry for them. They just have a poor will power and they lack the power to make decisions for themselves.

The people who I am referring to are those who rely on fortune tellers, psychics and mystics. Please don't be fooled by them and get hurt emotionally in the process of doing so. If these guys are real they will be the first ones making a million bucks and living a life of their dreams, but rather they are making a million bucks out of you and from the people who are really susceptible to their suggestions.

These kinds of beliefs are personal and at the end of its up to you to what you practise or preach, but rememeber that at the end of the day your life, your destiny is based on the decisions that you make and not what others suggest to you or 'tell' you what to do. 

Can you image if Bill Gates had gone to see a 'fortune teller' way back before he started Microsoft? Can you imagine the fortune teller saying this to him: "Don't worry my child you will be a successful person and you will have a high flying job in the near future." Don't you think it is every persons dream to be sucessful in life and live their dreams? But the test always comes down to those who take action and execute their dreams and ambition, and this is something that many successful individuals have done including Bill Gates. He didn't rely on all the mystics and fortune tellers to sell him that he will start Microsoft. Common sense is not so common and it is they who lack this "common sense" end up becoming preys of such people.

I have come across individuals who relied on these alternatives rather then to be a master of their own destinity. As a result of these alternatives, they have ruined their relationships, their jobs and careers and some even commited suicide. This is true. Don't be a victim to all the 'spoofs and pranks'. 

If these individuals can proof their claims then maybe they should take up the James Randi Paranormal Challenge, where $1,000,000 shall be awarded to those who can prove their "powers" by experiment. Till today, I have yet to see anyone proof of these claims as well. I myself have come across such pranksters and when questioned, they tend to shun away and say this is the gift of god. Yeah right!

Why should he or she have such powers and not me? Shouldn't I be having such "powers" and "gift" as well as I am also the son of god just like you? At the end of the day it all comes down to one simple question: If you do not know what you want in life, then you will be heading no where. Success is a science, Period! You can control most of the events that are within your capability and what you think about, you can create provided you take action and work towards them. 

The problem is this that most individual do not know where they are heading and as a result they end up going with the 'flow' just like a dead fish that flows down the river stream into the ocean where everyone is. However, those who know where they are heading and know what they want in life are like Salmons. They swim against the flow and current; heading to their destiny and final outcome. And when Salmons reach their destiny, they die.  

However, we human beings are the same in perspective of a Salmon, where we can create the same results. The only difference is that we do not die when we reach our goals, but rather we can create and achieve more in life and help others around us.

Perhaps in the future if you feel like taking an "alternative" route to seek some "advice" from the mystics or psychics, perhaps you might want to ask the psychic in the video below first if it is worth it or maybe ask me and pay reward me with the money that you are going to pay the psychic ;) and all I need is to ask you is this: Do you know what you want out of life? If you don't then decide now and don't let others make that decision for you.


Don't say I didn't warn you... Because common sense is not so COMMON ;)

Google Me, Google You, Google Everyone

It's been 10 years now since they "officially" started and Google is clebrating their 10 year anniversary. The co-founders of Google: Larry Pare and Sergey Brin have build one of the most powerful search engines and business concepts of all time. It has been a great decade of achievement for the two co-founders as they have kept pushing all the boundaries and constantly innovating, improving and creating new roads ahead for many to follow. They are the true leaders in the modern day online search, advertising and business.

The avenues are unlimited, everyday new ideas are being created and many are beginning to follow. In the modern age of the world wide web and web 2.0, you can either be a leader in your field by creating something new or you can follow others and modify their  ideas (making sure that you do not infringe any copyright laws).

Google is a company that just does that. They started off with a search engine, where they hosted their first data centre in a 7' x 8' garage and transforming into a giant media corporation that hires an approximate figure of 20,000 employees. They have capitalise a huge success from all their ventures beginning from the search engine, ad words, ad sense, youtube, blogger, gmail and now the google chrome browser. 

All of these achievements were done in the past 10 years from their modest beginning and location of their garage of 7' 8' garage and jumping to their 1.5 million-square-foot headquarters called the "Googleplex" that is based in Mountain View, California. Not bad for such an effort! 

In fact, I was hesitant at first during the launch of Google Chrome, as the layout looked preety simple without any fancy design. But later after reading and receiving a few reviews from some friends in the industry, I decided to download and try the new Google Chrome browser. I am quite a loyal person and I was quite comfortable with my current use of Firefox after switching from IE and Safari, as I found Firefox to be a better browser personally. 

However, after I downloaded and installed the Google Chome browser, I must admit that it realy did surpass all my expectations that I had about it. Google stated on their website that the "Google Chrome is a browser that combines a minimal design with sophisticated technology to make the web faster, safer, and easier". And, so it is!

I am very impressed and it is definitely faster in its loading time compared to many other browsers. It doesnt have much of the 'fancy smancy' design, but the technology is great and easy to use. If you haven't downloaded the new Google Chrome browser, I would suggest that you do so by going to this link, get the browser and try if for yourself. I would definitely like to hear from you and what you have to say about it.
