It is amazing how our life and our reality really can play important role in the way we percept or visualize one thing. But there is one more extraordinary thing that we can learn..

Seeing as the blind sees. I wondered how some of the blind people let’s say like big man Stevie Wonder or  Ray Charles (was role featured by Jamie fox) can really impact a world with his creations. I believe that he has never thought of himself that he can be so determined and really successful when he found out he was blind. You can see how he is immortalized by his creation.

If you know the story of Helen Keller, she was the first deaf blind person to ever graduate from college. Things were not easy for her. If it were not for the Anne Sulivan’s great vision to see her pass through the tough times. I believe we will never see Helen name inspire us today. But thanks to Anne Sullivan who sees things as the blinded. Understanding a deaf and blind girl and teach her to be a winner is not easy.

I got myself today a simple enlightment.. I have to see things not just in reality but also see things as if I were blind. When I meant blind does not literally i need to poke my eyes till got bleed out but truly envisioned myself in position of impossibility. In position where i want my life to be in the future is very important. I know where I am today is the result of the decision that I made in the past. And sometimes not always that things that you do not wish do affects you like disaster or even some tragic incident.

If you are in position of impossibility, i want you to simply close your eyes and imagine yourself that you have triumphed. You are the champion and there is nothing feel better than conquering it and enjoying it where will you be. Grab that feeling of accomplishment and see it as you turn the table around.

Make believe that there is nothing impossible for you to be in that future and be a total WINNER!

I truly hope the best for all of our lives! Cheers

After 5.5 hours in flight time from Jakarta to Hong Kong finally I arrived. It was pretty long flight but is all good. I was here 12 years ago when it was under British Colony. Things changed last time I was in the airport that had to land surrounded by skycrappers

Now HK international airport has moved to much bigger space and more facilities the immigration is not that tight like it used to but price for local food has changed. Taxi cab cost me around 400hkd to my hotel in wan chai area.

Wan chai also known for the susie wong area surrounded by bars and clubs. Strategically located I found a lot of local food with reasonable price.

On the first day I met my Internet buddy Dr. John Chan, he arrived exactly after I checked in and we had a good chat and thanks to his hospitality
I know my way around a bit

the difficulty if you just bring mobile device like what I used to write this section then you be looking for paid service that can cost you around 20 hkd for 24 hour service. Finally I got connected and was so happy thanks to public wifi network called pccw. You can get your prepaid service from 7eleven. oh one more thing my indonesia mobile provider has also network called people and I can send and receive text MSG awesomely without the need to do any setting configuration.

my first late lunch I had local hong kong fried rice and followed by BBQ pork and crispy skin pork rice. yummy, am going out now for gym in my hotel and tomorrow I will be heading to Macau

see ya on another lost in translation Hong kong edition

It had been a few days since I wrote another post again. I thought that some season in my life has been really over the rainy days and dark time seems revisited me with new kind of twist. I do know that this phase of life I can pass through this time. It is not easy! Until…

This Sunday, It’s Interesting Outlook on The Dark and Daylight. I can really take deep lessons from it. See I do not know if you notice that our life has cycle. That cycle can put us on the TOP and DOWN time. So what’s so important about our cycle of life? Before I get to that… Let’s see what CYCLE that I am talking about and why should we be really understand it.

Our life consists of many aspects like Physical, Emotional, Relationship, Finance, Spiritual and keeping balance to get all 5 main aspects is not and easy job! seriously I had been long enough to endure the cycle some of us while we are young we do not understand why things happen and for what reason.

I reminisce the time when I am not on my peak condition, it is a time where I feel I am alone and only time that can bring me to pass and show me there is a glimpse of ray of hope that can make me smile again.
I am talking about the time when I had only U$30 in my bank account and I realize that I had to do something with it again. I never like how that felt but I assuredly can say that was not an easy time to understand. I need the cash to make me survived the daily living cost. I had a few moment like this similar like back in 1998 and around 2003.

Nothing was right in my life but I persist and got through that dark tunnel of my life. Another time of mine, was when I decided how my love life (yeah, I do fall in love). I do not know why this part seems so important other than money but now I know that we are not a creature who made to be single all the time. We need to partner with somebody who ready to support your vision in life and make it to the next level of dating called relationship then take matters into serious hand called “marriage”.

Nope, I am not into marriage stage but I do realize that things happen for reason and sometime those dark times make us realize nothing can be done much unless we really take time to reflect and stay still. For me it’s getting connected to higher power that I called GOD. I am a believer yeah I am, my life has never been the same but also am a man who can fail.

Tough times or Bad Times Happen To Good People or Person That You Care So Much. But life is not always sad or down all the time. You need to actually understand that when a person is in stage of darkness, we all longing for a new ray of light in our life. That ray of light make us see the best in us near future time. Your current situation may not be the best situation to go through at the moment. But keep on having new better vision and future and I know you will pass through it.

Here is what certain in life “Death” nothing can be more certain but that’s later after we finished our greater purpose why we are here. In life other things that are certain are like “People Come and Go in Your Life”, “Door Of Opportunity Knocks In or Closed For You” “Breathing Fresh Air or Drowning In Some Conflicts” and more to that. Come and Go, Open and Close, Breathe In and Breathe Out, Put On and Put Down, Sun Rise and Sunset. More you can add some cycle that happens repetitively in your life. You can not avoid this but you can learn how to use and enjoy each cycle.

It is like enlightenment in my time, when I had someone who is so closed and ready to lay down your life then she left me was not an easy time. Truly learning to be committed and accepting her decision was something that I have to respect. I know I had to struggle with time of my singlehood, relationship that has been nurtured for the past 30 months gone ashtray. As one of us stopped fighting and gone for some other new life venture, which was not really my choice. I tried to fight it back and rebuilt it. But what’s been broken sometimes become a monument to remind me that I have had to learn it.

I’ve had to close a lot of chapter in my life and what I endured was not easy, I still struggle through it like eating the bitter pill I know I had to go through this stage so I can be a grown up man. This was the darkest time in my life. Being a responsible man who take charge of his destiny and fight the fate is a big job!

Making it to the end, I see a ray of hope now. I get better now after a heavy damaged shocked situation. I will never learn to walk on my next two feet if I never had to crawl before. I will never learn to be grateful of what I have until I lost it. Sometimes unheard cry is the best therapy of your life in state of darkness. No one listen to it, except God. Why God sit and do nothing?

Actually He is there.. when friends come and give you word of encouragement (that’s God way of saying how much He cares). When you got a pat in the back and they tell you to get up again, or the whole new perspective of life that you got that’s a wisdom that you should enjoy it more and more. I thank for the new ray of hope that shone my life and changed me to become a better person and bigger heart and fight life to next level.

In conclusion, dark times is the time where time seems so long and get so toughed. Hang on the new ray of hope is there to build you up and make you a better person. During this time, discovering and enjoying the process is the best way. Nothing can be done more except sowing goodness to your current situation. helping people and what they need: attention, energy, monetarily

daylight times is the time where you feel the joy comes in the morning and fresh air of hope and you see that you can go through the tough times without understand why is it there for you. Also it is a time of reaping, you will see how every aspects of your life get in line and becoming one fine line that you can walk on it and jump on it.

Men’s Life Cycle has to endure the best of both times to understand truly what life is. I know that when I am in my low time, I want to fly higher till I forget how low I am. When I am in sad, I want to be happy. When I am worries I know that I have assurance that my life is safe and time is the one that makes me see it. When I am sick I know I want to be healed through times and love.

I can never say enough how I love the life that is bestow upon me, once I understand this I am ready to fight to get out of my darkness and reach the light. Have Faith for Greater Glory!

Never Never Give Up On Life! Learn From Your Down Time and Get Up Again! Be Awesome !Enjoy The Process and Celebrate The Event …Your Internet Buddy, Dee Ferdinand

Technology is amazing. I can remember when I have my first MP3 player it was called Creative Zen.
I love it, the compact and mobility and fits my hand’s palm is what I think is truly amazing with mono screen.
It seems that it has been the gadget that people looking for. iPod first started with the black and white screen. The capacity and its ergonomic design is what appeal to mass and the easy to manage music library using its own proprietary software iTunes.

I just got myself an iPod Touch.. seriously I was not looking for MP3 feature or being stylish or gadget must have. But I found another interesting feature that will help me to control and watch over my business online. The new iPod Touch loaded with version 1.14 has one interesting feature to download mail, browse the internet using its wifi feature. iPod touch is not blackberry so if you are thinking to be charged for every time you use the network then this gear is not what you wanted.

I do like iPod Touch as it gives me mobility, and being really convenient. I can bring this gear anywhere in the world without being too bulky like ordinary laptop with 22 hours music playtime, and 5 hours playback for video fully charged. This truly businesstainment gadget, setting up the gadget is also easy I got wireless protected area at my home with some MAC address restriction. I need to look up for the iPod MAC address, it is easily found under the settings icon then go to about then there is machine id in this format 00:xx:00:xx:00

A few drawback that it does not have a FREE software for you to read DOC files or PDF files to do that you got to upgrade to version 2.0 which will cost you about U$9.97 (Not much but worth it) from there your iPod once connected to the internet can download relevant application paid or FREE without doing the jailbreak.

I do not recommend to do jail break if you want to actually lose your warranty by doing it. A few useful application that I downloaded after I upgrade version 2.0 are Wordpress (Update your wordpress hosted blog or your wordpress.com blog), twitter (you can twitter), facebook (you can chat and update your friends profile) so far I am enjoying my gear and am ready to take off around the world :) Thanks Mac you just made my day!

In my journey as Internet Business Owner, the single popular word in online business world is called “Internet Marketing”

When I learned and researched about this is interesting how a lot of people perceive it. In my own terms from what I see Internet marketing is a technique on how to market a product or service to mass online. The technique is used by every company that sells from tangible goods, retails, lottery, gambling, adult novelty, lifestyle goods. From service like car repair, dentist, copy writing, graphic design, audio voice over, and many more. As you can see that Internet has become a lifestyle and marketing in general is what required from every company to master.

Internet Marketing (IM) is a range of technique from market research, understanding AIDA and SWOT, problem solving, then in practice doing keyword research, SEO, creating product that helps market, bring traffic, build customer interest list. These are part of the Internet Marketing in General.

IM is not Network Marketing. Network Marketing is kinda different, I don’t really quite comfortable with the idea a company just pay us after we made our referring sale that we are paid small amount after we made 2 sale or 4 sale. It is just ridiculous.
The company needs you! and if they say you don’t work for a 9 to 5 day job. I can say that you work indefinite time for this MLM or network marketing company. And the compensation plan is not any better than your 9 to 5 day job.

I do not have problem with Network Marketing / MLM but when they come to the scene and acknowledge themselves as an Internet Marketing that’s what totally wrong and misconception. I can tell you that Internet Marketing is a techinque or like a methodology for one to market on the world wide web. Let’s see how does Internet Marketing in general do their practice

Internet Marketing in genereal target certain group that has interest which most of the time is like Make Money Online, Work From Home, Home Business, Online Entrepreneur, Stay At Home Dad, Working Mom at Home. Once a person or a company understand the common problem of what’s out there for this certain market group. They can offer solution by offering the relevant information then they come about creating product (Product Creation Stage) from here a few stuff is being developed hiring a copywriter, graphic designer, sales letter copywriter. The next part is to setup a being or identity (find a good domain name, reliable hosting) and upload all the necessary material.

The key to these whole product promotion is being able to drive traffic to your product /service website and build it consistently.

The other important factor is product / service delivery. What kinda product they get and also how long does it take to get into the hand of your customer. And gaining feedback. Roll the process over and over.. it is the same like conventional business but the different you do it online

I just watched how easy it is to actually manage my daily activities especially since I am a social networking activist. Yeah, I do facebook daily and make friends a lot there and even lived up my reputation as an Internet Biz Owner.

From what I learned so far that managing social networking is not easy. You need to register yourself and takes several steps to get yourself registered properly. Imagine how many social networking sites that you need to sign up and get yourself to do similar steps over and over again.

Once you register you also need to login often to actually enjoy the benefits and grow your social network and being active taking a lot of our daily time. I have limited how I really work and try to work efficient. I just read one of the tech magazine that feature FLOCK . Seriously, I was asked to download it and give it a try. Then realize it is great! It does update all the status of facebook notify me of every friends’ update

I also do blogging at my personal site and I see that flock has a nice xmlrpc system. And if you do photo (Picasa, Flickr) and video posting (Youtube) then you would see this as alternative to really put your effort in minimum with maximum output. For your information, if you use flock you can try to forget firefox browser as it is run using this awesome mozilla browser engine.

Let’s flock it baby!

Have you had a memory that you want to treasure?

By the time you are doing back up and selecting which photo should go to your album or to be printed.
Then you select a wrong images the one that you wanted got deleted and you left out with just the ugly ones.

These photos were so precious as you have just taken your way to capture the moment when you went travelling. So what can be done next? You lose hope and wish that you can reset time and not doing the
stupid decision to delete all. And you got the whole day to be a bad day.

Don’t get down yet. My father just went from trip to Japan and he got over 2GB to be backup and most of them are mp4 videos in AVI format. So I told him to make a backup but he accidentally deleted the whole 2GB of videos with my mom memories. Ah he was panicked and I said I do not know how to recover but I do
remember when you delete something some fragment are there until you create another photos.

So here I am, did search on google and found a unique 2 free software. Yeah you read it right they are free and amazingly I did recover the whole 2GB with around 5% loss is better than nothing at all. So I do want to share this 2 great tools if you like it and feel that these guys have done a great job. Donate please ;)
You can’t exchange memory with what they have shared here.

Recover the “accidentally” lost moment… and never do the same kind of mistake!

Here is what i used for recovering the accidentally deleted photo:
I used this:  PC Inspector Smart Recovery
For how to use it and the step by step instruction check this link here

or you can also use this Recuva.

Both software by the time this article was written is under FREEware! You don’t pay any cent for it!

I feel very obliged to share a lot of insight about making the right decisions in life.
Is never easy. Your right decision can make you in bigger problem than what you already have.
Your right decision can lead you to loss a lot of friends.
Your right decision can be the determining factor that a lot of people can be against you.
Your right decision can be the one single element that makes difference between failure and success.

Let’s assume you have made the right decision than the result was not like you expected. It was a total
failure. What can you do? I’d suggest change your strategy. A lot of people making a decision based
on current situation. Have you ever turned the table around? What do I mean?

Have you ever made decision based on result ? Whatever result you want to get you made your decision that can achive the result that you have set. A lot of us walking in the journey of life flow, whatever will be then will it be. It creates our life as a creature of circumstances, we do not take control of the process and event in our life but rather we are becoming victims.

We blamed our current situation as we become a victims of our own decisions. We tend to blame others for our failures. It’s funny when everything goes wrong we tend to blame but when everything goes right or smooth we forget the people that has helped us getting there.

How about if you were born in challenging situation ? Challenging financial situation, disability, racial discrimination, unwanted born by your natural parents. Can you still change your future ? Yes, there is no doubt to it. But is not easy, also nothing is impossible.

Norman Vincent Peale shared something so powerful, he has a very profound quote:

“People become really quite remarkable when they start thinking that they can do things. When they believe in themselves they have the first secret of success.”

First secret of sucess. Is to change your thinking then believe in the new changed thinking. And make decision and taking action based on the new thinking.

Have you ever felt that you started with a lot of challenges? I have had that experience when I started my entrepreneurial journey it was one of the lowest time in my life emotionally. But I kept on targeting on what I wanted in life. I do see a dot of hope that I can actually approach further and see that I am getting closer to my target of what I wanted in life.

Carl Bard is pretty unknown for his inspirational quote but read here:

“Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.”

The famous philanthropist, TV talk show host “Oprah Winfrey” did not start his life smoothly based on abused and all that she should have ended up become a wreck. But she did something in her past that has made her a very fortunate person that can help and inspire others for better life. Her interesting quote:

“Every day brings a chance for you to draw in breath, kick off your shoes and dance.”

Most of us stay where we are in comfort zone, if something not happening that means we fail to realize and take action. Bryon Pulsifer says this:

“You will never reach your goal until you start to take action, any ac
