GOLD or CASH? Which one is a better saving for future?


Cash or Gold? Which one you choose? GOLD is the ANSWER for sure but when talk about gold, what will people say?

"Gold is expensive brother. It's only for richer!". 

This is a negative thinking. They say this without know the gold current price actually.

"There's not so much different lor. I don't want to waste my time to think about this".

Lazy will say this but thank God, i never hear my friend say this. Haha!!

"I know the price of gold keep increase.I want to buy it. Urm...I'll tell you later when I'm ready"

Brother, you have to move fast. Thinking is good but over think is dangerous! So, avoid it.

Most people know about GOLD actually. But they don't have enough facts and prove about this. So, i want to share about the history of gold price. Lets see how far the price of gold can increase by referring to previous years. Kindly please refer graph below. =)

Effective Presentation Skills

Presentation is a method to present any information to the audience and it needs "something to present" and "skills to present". Only an extraordinary presentation can present the information effectively. After watch the video presentation of steve jobs from Apple, i admit that he is a cool presenter and we should learn from this guy.

So today, i will tell you the skills of steve jobs presenting his product and this skills will make your presentation amazing.

1. Theme
The first thing that you must tell the the audience is the theme of your presentation. In example, steve jobs say something like this: "Today, Apple is going to reinvent the phone". We can see that he give his audience a reason to listen and that will attract the audience to focus on what he say.

2. Outline
Then, you must provide the outline of your presentation. This is what steve says in one of his presentation."I got 4 things i like to talk about with you today, So, lets get started!"

3. Open and Close the Element with a Clear Transition
Make the audience feel easy to follow your story with verbally open and close the element of your presentation. In example: "A perfect companion of leopard, that is the first thing i want to show you this morning".

4. Wow Your Audience
Wow! your audience and passionate about thing you want to talk with using words like:Amazing! Cool! Incredible! Unbelievevable!

5. Sell an Experience
It means you have to make numbers or statistics meaningful. In example, steve says: "we sold 4 millions iPhone to date. If devide 4 Millions by 200 date, that means 20 thousands phones everyday on average"

6. Make it Visual
What steve put in his presentation. Usually he just a little words but with big size and maybe 1 to 3 image per slide.

7. Give the Audience a Show!!
In example, steve put a thin Apple laptop inside a envelope. Then he open it at the stage. People does not expect that there are a laptop inside that envelope. This new Apple laptop is WoW!.

8. Rehearse Many Times
Show the audience the product, demo it!

9. Add "And one more thing" before end.
This is what you need to add at the end of your topic. Just add a new feature or product. This will give the audience an added bonus to use the product.


I hope this steps will help the reader to enhance the skill in presentation. Before i end this post, just want to tell you that you can Google "Garr Reynolds" for skills in presentation. This guy is a communication expert and the creator of "Presentation Zen". Thank you.

"ACTION PLAN" Untuk Menguruskan Projek - Basic

Assalamualaikum..

Hari ini saya akan berkongsi ilmu berkaitan dengan Pengurusan Projek atau Kerja dalam Penyelesaian Masalah (Problem Solving) iaitu ACTION PLAN. Kaedah ini boleh diaplikasi oleh semua org terutamanya pengurus projek, ketua projek dan lain-lain.

Action Plan ini boleh membantu kita untuk memastikan kerja-kerja yang perlu dilakukan dalam sesuatu projek itu siap pada masa yang ditentukan. Ia juga memudahkn kita untuk melihat sekiranya terdapat kerja-kerja yang tertangguh. 4W & 1H akan digunapakai dalam kaedah ini dimana What, Who, Why, When, Where, How. Cara-cara untuk menggunakan 4W & 1H ini adalah seperti berikut:
  • What (Apa) - Perkara berbangkit
  • Who (Siapa) - Tindakan ke atas siapa? Siapa yang terlibat?
  • When (Bila) - Tarikh atau masa untuk bertindak
  • Where (Di mana) - Tempat untuk bertindak
  • How (Bagaimana) - Cara-cara untuk menyelesaikan masalah itu.


Contoh:
  • What (Apa) - Ahmad must join team building program to improve skill in team work and to get good Ahmad (Ahmad perlu sertai program "team building" untuk meningkatkan kemhirannya dalam kerja kumpulan dan mendapat ahmad yang lebih bagus.)
  • Who (Siapa) - Ahmad and choosen employee (Ahmad dan perkerja lain yang terpilih)
  • When (Bila) - Date or maybe 2 times per year (Tarikh atau 2 kali setahun)
  • Where (Di mana) - Pulau Pangkor
  • How (Bagaimana) - Create Proposal for the program, Send the proposal, Approved,(Hasilkan proposal program, hantar proposal, proposal diluluskan)

Action plan ini perlu dilakukan dalam bentuk jadual supaya ia mudah diselia oleh mana-mana pihak terutamanya Pengurus Projek. Berikut adalah contoh jadual yang dihasilkan dengan menggunakan Microfoft Excel:

Coloumn "Status" adalah untuk ruangan status kerja sama ada "Done" (Siap) atau "Pending" (Belum Siap). Jadual ini boleh dibina dengan menggunakan Microsoft Excel atau dilukis sendiri. Saya mencadangkan ia dibina dengan menggunakan Microsoft Excel supaya dapat memudahkan penyelia untuk mengubahsuai dan ia nampak lebih teratur dan kemas.

"Header" nurullahz.blogspot.com dikemaskini.


Assalamualaikum..
Hari ini saya berhajat untuk mengemaskini blog ini. Tidak kira la tulis artikel baru atau edit template, yang penting saya perlu kemaskini blog ini. Jadi, saya mengambil keputusan untuk menukar header lama blog ini kepada header yang saya reka sendiri. Berikut adalah header asal blog ini.



Di bawah ini pula adalah header yang baru saya buat dan dibantu oleh esanstudio.


.
Di kiri header baru ini saya letakkan nama blog ini dan tulisan "show us the straight way" pula saya ambil dari surah al-fatihah yang bermakna "tunjukkan lah kami jalan yang lurus" dengan harapan dapat mengingatkan diri saya dan pembaca supaya sentiasa berdoa kepada Allah agar ditunjukkan jalan yang lurus dan benar, iaitu jalan yang diredhai.

Di kanan header ini pula saya isikan tajuk dan penerangan blog ini yang bermaksud kita sebagai hamba Allah perlu sentiasa mencari cahaya petunjuk dan keredhaan Allah s.w.t. InsyaAllah...
