Reader, Each of us are blessed with God’s incredible brain. Complicated network inside help in every activity we start from the absorption of information, processing up to sort out the best action for us. Without the felt we use each side of the brain simultaneously.

Actually our brains are divided into two parts. The two hemispheres of the brain responsible for cross-examination, the right brain hemisphere that is responsible for the body to the left and vice versa.

This means that when the right brain dominant person, the person tends to become left-handed or left active with body parts. The two hemispheres of the brain is identical but different functions. Each brain behave differently.

The brain is an organ of the body’s most vital and important for human survival. If humans are like a computer, the brain is the processor.

The human brain consists of more than 100 billion nerve, each associated with 10 thousand other nerve. The brain is a vital organ which is the control center of the central nervous system.

The human brain is divided into two and is limited by longitudinal cracks. Longitudinal slit is also called the great gap longitudinal or longitudinal cracks in the cerebral is a groove which separates the two hemispheres of the human brain.

There are benefits of integrated human beings have brains. With two surfaces surface becomes wider, which allows for growth and cooling. With the two hemispheres, the brain becomes a function of each.

Left-brain hemisphere and right hemisphere functions respectively. As quoted from Buzzle, Monday (07/06/2010), the following functions each hemisphere of the brain:

Left-brain hemisphere

The left brain is characterized by the characteristics associated with analytical skills, logical, sequence, objectively and rationally. With these characteristics, people who use the left-brain dominant tend to have a rational approach to life.

Left-brain dominant people are more interested in numbers, words or symbols. By way of logical thinking and rational, individuals with left-brain dominance tend to perform better analysis capabilities. For example in engineering or accounting.

People with left-brain dominance is experienced in planning, and these people rarely make preparations at the last moment.

Right hemisphere brain

On the other hand, the characteristics associated with right brain is intuitive, random, subjective, holistic (overall) and synthesis. With these characteristics, people with right brain dominant tend to be more creative than people are left brain dominant.

The fact that people with right brain dominance are more likely to love the visual aspect, so people rarely respond to these issues in detail.

Individuals with right brain dominance tend to be more creative and intuitive, both in the field of creative arts, as well as in other fields. The individual has the right time to prioritize the things that are difficult, because most of the decisions made at the last moment.

If two individuals are given a few cases, one with right brain dominance and the other with left-brain dominance, people with right brain dominance will start work without going through the instruction manual. Whereas individuals with left-brain dominance will do so through the manual, understand the concept, and then handling the case.

Mr Rabeder, 47, a businessman from Telfs is in the process of selling his luxury 3,455 sq ft villa with lake, sauna and spectacular mountain views over the Alps, valued at £1.4 million.

Also for sale is his beautiful old stone farmhouse in Provence with its 17 hectares overlooking the arrière-pays, on the market for £613,000. Already gone is his collection of six gliders valued at £350,000, and a luxury Audi A8, worth around £44,000.

Mr Rabeder has also sold the interior furnishings and accessories business – from vases to artificial flowers – that made his fortune.

“My idea is to have nothing left. Absolutely nothing,” he told The Daily Telegraph. “Money is counterproductive – it prevents happiness to come.”

Instead, he will move out of his luxury Alpine retreat into a small wooden hut in the mountains or a simple bedsit in Innsbruck.

His entire proceeds are going to charities he set up in Central and Latin America, but he will not even take a salary from these.

“For a long time I believed that more wealth and luxury automatically meant more happiness,” he said. “I come from a very poor family where the rules were to work more to achieve more material things, and I applied this for many years,” said Mr Rabeder.

But over time, he had another, conflicting feeling.

“More and more I heard the words: ‘Stop what you are doing now – all this luxury and consumerism – and start your real life’,” he said. “I had the feeling I was working as a slave for things that I did not wish for or need.

I have the feeling that there are lot of people doing the same thing.”

However, for many years he said he was simply not “brave” enough to give up all the trappings of his comfortable existence.

The tipping point came while he was on a three-week holiday with his wife to islands of Hawaii.

“It was the biggest shock in my life, when I realised how horrible, soulless and without feeling the five star lifestyle is,” he said. “In those three weeks, we spent all the money you could possibly spend. But in all that time, we had the feeling we hadn’t met a single real person – that we were all just actors. The staff played the role of being friendly and the guests played the role of being important and nobody was real.”

He had similar feelings of guilt while on gliding trips in South America and Africa. “I increasingly got the sensation that there is a connection between our wealth and their poverty,” he said.

Suddenly, he realised that “if I don’t do it now I won’t do it for the rest of my life”.

Mr Rabeder decided to raffle his Alpine home, selling 21,999 lottery tickets priced at just £87 each. The Provence house in the village of Cruis is on sale at the local estate agent.

All the money will go into his microcredit charity, which offers small loans to Latin America and builds development aid strategies to self-employed people in El Salvador, Honduras, Bolivia, Peru, Argentina and Chile.

Since selling his belongings, Mr Rabeder said he felt “free, the opposite of heavy”.

But he said he did not judge those who chose to keep their wealth. “I do not have the right to give any other person advice. I was just listening to the voice of my heart and soul.”

1. Useless waste of time
Honestly we understand that time holds an important role but often we fall on this. then how we can achieve a successful career if you do not use it as better.
2. Ignore available opportunities
we still remember the adage opportunity will not come twice. Let’s remember last year how many opportunities that we ignored, but if we could get it, of course we are in a different state now.
3. spending money unwisely
Let’s admit that we often do not fall on spending wisely, which is spending more based on a desire than the need. Our financial drain for the things that are not useful, but there are other needs are more urgent should be delayed eventually.
4. indulge lust ignore the hearts and minds
Lust like a wild animal. let it without control would make it even more wild and take whatever it wants. look around us many people fell for it. then if last year we often do this hurry up to conscious and control yourself with your heart and mind.

Learning from the past
OK we have done something stupid yesterday, immediately aware and develop steps to improve from now. made a mistake is a common thing because I think each person has done, but immediately got up and improve themselves is imperative. don’t let ourselves fall mired in secondary because it is only done by foolish people.

Year 2010 should be improved. This year everything should be better, this year should be more successful our career. here challenges and great opportunities are waiting for our answer. then do not sit on my hands, face and achieve it.
May God bless us. amin

As a child we often see these jobs as well dressed and looked beautiful and noble we set as a goal without first deepening. So cute and innocent we aspire to become doctors, engineers, teachers, employees, employers and we do not know the talents and interests are also our ability to our ideals? but why not nothing wrong is not it?

Why We Need ideals?
Ideals of the future is a picture of ourselves. These are the points that we believe ourselves as though still too premature, but this is the bright position (positive perspective) that we will strive for. And every effort will be devoted to achieving it.

He will be strongly reflected in our brains that will always be up whenever we remember. Let’s recall our answers when asked the teacher about our ideals. I still remember when I was in elementary school Mrs Enwilujeng asked me about it in the 4th grade, when I replied shyly to become an engineer. I still remember my expression of that time, all seemed eager to answer the question, of course, with the innocence of a child.

Now a few tens of years passed and I’ve been in a position not far away with my ideals, and you may not be much different with my back to wake begins with an end goal with an achievement might not be appropriate because many factors influence but certain ideals is one of the drivers of these achievements.
What about you ?

Ini renungan tentang betapa naifnya diri ini mengharap suatu datang tanpa banyak bersusah-payah, padahal sudah nyata tidak pernah ada hujan emas, juga tidak ada buah jika tidak menanam. Memposting suatu tulisan adalah ending dari suatu proses menulis. Sedangkan menulis secara rutin betul-betul sulit untuk diwujudkan karena menutut konsistensi yah… konsistensi menyisihkan sebagian waktu untuk menuangkan ide dan kreatifitas ke dalam tulisan kemudian diposting di blog kesayangan ini.

Proses diatas disadari sepenuhnya tanpa syarat dan juga mudah untuk diungkapkan namun menjadi begitu berat dipraktekkan. Aha ini jadi lucu dan pilu mudah menjadi sukar, ringan menjadi berat. Apa titik pengaitnya ? pastilah ia suatu sifat yang sulit dimengerti, berpengaruh besar membuyarkan setiap rencana, menggagalkan setiap cita-cita dan bahkan membatalkan keberhasilan, dialah sifat malas.

Wahai sifat malas dimanakah kamu bercokol di tubuh ini ? apakah kamu di darahku mengalir di sekujur tubuh hingga tidak ada bagian tubuh yang tidak terkena pengaruhmu ? atau di otakku mencemari kemampuan berfikirku sehingga kamu selalu ada di kerangka fikirku ? atau dimana ?

Dimanapun kamu aku tak peduli. Kini dengan sebuah resolusi perang aku akan mengejarmu memusnahkanmu atau paling tidak memenjarakanmu. Takkan kubiarkan prestasiku terbelenggu olehmu. Akan kuraih masa depanku tanpamu karena memang aku tidak butuh kamu.

Risk of business failure is commonplace in the world of entrepreneurs. If successful become entrepreneur in Indonesia, of course, will do well into the network expansion to foreign countries. Proverbial, failed 10 times in Indonesia could be a successful person than a dozen times in many countries.

One student asked about his business smarts to be able to penetrate the international level “Sir are you not afraid of competitors? What difference does it make doing business in Indonesia and abroad? Would not it be businessman in Indonesia complicated ? “, Said Bayu excited.

The question was greeted by vociferous other seminar participants. The applause that filled the arena. According Mr. Ci of course in any country can developed the business. Not only in the field of property as he does now. It means a lot of business opportunities that can be created. “If you can successfully become entrepreneurs in Indonesia, Believe you will be more successful abroad”. Mr. Ci calls his a thumbs-up.

“Indonesia is familiar with the complex bureaucracy. Matters such as business licensing process complicated, the cost is not cheap because they have to go through many procedures. What’s the difference, if constraints convoluted that we can overcome and still run a business to succeed, of course, will be the capital a very valuable experience. Neighboring countries such as Singapore and Malaysia makes it easy for entrepreneurs to make investments. “Well in Indonesia convoluted course we can succeed especially abroad, would be far greater.” Says Mr. Ci deck with laughter the participant.

Another intriguing question is also conveyed by Muhammad Hildan Student majoring in Information Technology of IPB once claiming 3 times failed business. “Mr. Ci why did my efforts not produce. Once a profit but instead of three times failed. “He asked.

According to Mr Ci failures are common. Therefore, before opening a business must take risks. The important ideas and business mission to be developed must be clear potential market. Measured risks and to innovate in an effort should be done. Because each region is also different market segments. You’re young got to go with the changing mindset. Not after graduation trying to find a job. You must create job opportunities. “He explained.

Mr. Ci also talked about the potential of untapped marine. Yet the wealth of natural resources became an important mainstay for Indonesia. In the world only Indonesia has the best natural and forest. Indonesia has thousands of islands and sea resources are varied. Imagine Singapore’s small states can become Asia’s largest importer. Singapore could have an income 15 times as compared to Indonesia when the country has no sea and forest.

All the raw materials from Indonesia and then processed later branded that country to be marketed again later. Why can not we, not strange because one of the reasons our country is still minimal principal entrepreneur. At least 25 years of our adult you will create 4 million young entrepreneurs in Indonesia. “Says the owner of 12 schools and 3 college.
