Two friends (Madhavan and Sharman Joshi) embark on a quest for a lost buddy. On this journey, they encounter a long forgotten bet, a wedding they must crash, and a funeral that goes impossibly out of control. As they make their way through the perilous landscape, another journey begins: their inner journey through memory lane and the story of their friend- the irrepressible free-thinker Rancho (Aamir Khan), who in his unique way, touched and changed their lives. It's a story of their hostel days that swings between rancho's romance with the spirited Pia (Kareena Kapoor), and his clash with and oppressive mentor, Viru Sahastrabudhhe (Boman Irani). And then one day, suddenly, Rancho vanishes... Who was he? Where did he come from? Why did he leave? The friend who influenced and inspired them to think creatively and independently, even as the conformist world called them three idiots. Where is the original idiot now? Finally, in misty mountains of unparalleled beauty, the find the key to the secret. Three Idiots is comedy of ideas that is a provocative as it is funny, as wildly entertaining as it is insightful. A laugh-riot that talks about the most important of human pursuits: self-actualization.

Benefits of Reciting Various Verses of the Holy Qur’an

Some actions are to be performed after the completion of every compulsory prayer and these are called Ta’qibaat. Out of the numerous actions that have been recommended, there are a few verses of the Holy Qur’an that have also been prescribed and carry much reward if recited after the daily prayers.
The following is a list of the verses that should be recited and a note of the reward gained for the recitation of each one.
1. Ayah ash-Shahada (Surah Ali-’Imran: 18-19) In the commentary of Majma’ul Bayaan, it is narrated from the Holy Prophet that those who recite this ayah make a covenant with Allah (S.w.T.) and Allah always fulfils His covenants. If this ayah is recited after every prayer, then Jannah is guaranteed to the reciter.
2. Ayah al-Mulk (Surah Ali-’Imran: 26-27) It is narrated that the Holy Prophet (S) once advised one of his companions, who was in debt, to recite this ayah after every prayer and then supplicate to Allah (S.w.T.) for the repayment of his debts saying that even if the debts are equal to the entire land on Earth, they will be repaid.
3. Ayah al-Kursi (Surah al-Baqarah: 255-257) It is narrated from the Holy Prophet (S) that there is no barrier between the person who recites this ayah after every prayer and Jannah except for death ie. he will be taste the pleasures of Jannah immediately after his death, and only that person will be able to recite it who is pious and righteous.
4. Ayah al-Madhkurah (Surah ar-Rum: 17-22) Whoever recites this after every compulsory prayer will get a reward equal to drops of rain and grains of sand. The Holy Prophet (S) has highly recommended the recitation of this ayah especially during the early morning and evening times.
5. Ayah as-Sakhrah (Surah A’araaf: 54) This should also be recited after every prayer. The benefit of reciting this ayah is that it acts as a protection from Shaitan. It is said that the one who recites this ayah is protected against the plots of Shaitan even if he is alone in the desert.
Other recitations are also recommended, for example, it is said in a narration that whoever recites Surah at-Tawhid after prayers will wed a Hur-ul-Ein in Jannah. It is recommended that Surah at-Tawhid be recited ten times after every prayer and this leads to being forgiven be Allah (S.w.T.) and being blessed with the good of this world and the hereafter.
For the sake of brevity, here is a list of ayaat and Surahs that are also recommended to be recited after prayers:
a) Surah al-Ahzaab: 56
b) Surah al-Baqarah: 285-286
c) Surah al-Kahf: 109-110
d) Surah as-Saffaat: 1-10 and then the last three ayaat.
e) Surah ar-Rahman: 33-36
f) Surah al-Hashr: 21-24
g) Surah al-An’aam: 1-3
h) Surah al-Falaq, an-Naas, ar-Rahman al-Qadr, al-Fatehah, Ya Sin, al-Waaqiyah, al-Mulk, ad-Dahar and an-Naba are all recommended.
Verses to be recited before sleeping
It is narrated that whoever recites [Surah al-Fatir: 41] before going to sleep is kept safe from the collapse of his home on top of him. Imam Ali (a.s.) has said that if a person recites [Surah al-A’araaf: 196] and [Surah az-Zumar: 67] before going to sleep, he will be safe from drowning (if he is sleeping on a ship) or burning (in his home).
Recitation of [Surah al-Kahf: 110] is good for making a person wake up at a particular time. All that has to be done is to make an intention of the exact time you wish to wake up and then recite this ayah before sleeping. Surah at-Takathur is also recommended and the Holy Prophet (S) said that whoever recites it before sleeping will be saved from the horrors of the grave.
Recitations specifically for Thursday nights and Fridays
It is recorded that if a person recites Surah Bani-Isra’il on Thursday night, he will meet the 12th Imam (a.t.f.) and will be among his companions. The one who recites Surah al-Kahf will die a martyr and will be raised with the martyrs on the Day of Judgement.
Whoever recites Surah Saad on Thursday night will be blessed with good in this world and good in the hereafter to such an extent that nobody except the prophets and those who are very close to Allah (S.w.T.) will get a similar reward.
If Surah ad-Dukhan is recited on this night, all his sins will be forgiven. He will get the reward equivalent to that of freeing a thousand slaves for each letter he recites and seventy thousand angels will pray for his sins to be forgiven. The one who recites Surah al-Waqi’ah will be counted from the friends of Allah (S.w.T.). The other Surahs that have been recommended on Thursday nights are Surah an-Naml, al-Qasas and Hamim Sajdah.
On the day of Friday, the Surahs that are highly recommended are Surah al-Ikhlaas, an-Naas, al-Falaq, at-Tawba, al-Kahf, as-Saffaat, ar-Rahman, an-Nisaa, Hud and al-Qadr. All these carry great reward and should be recited if possible. Imam Ali (a.s.) has said that whoever recites Surah an-Nisaa on Fridays will be protected from the torments of the grave. The one who recites Surah Hud will be counted with the prophets and messengers and his sins will be forgiven.
The benefit of reciting Surah al-Kahf is that all sins of the past week are forgiven. Imam Ja’far as-Sadiq (a.s.) said that if a person recites Surah as-Saffaat on this day, he will be protected from all calamities and misfortunes. The one who recites Surah ar-Rahman will have a shining face on the Day of Judgement.
It is also recommended to recite [at-Tawba:128-129] and [al-Hashr: 21-24] on Friday mornings.
Recitations for increase in sustenance
It is narrated that writing Surah al-Mu’min at night and then keeping it in one’s place of business increases sustenance. Keeping Surah al-Hijr in one’s pocket or tied to the arm is also a means of increase in livelihood. Surah al-Qaari’ah should be worn around the neck and Surah al-Waaqi’ah should be recited every night to stay independent in terms of earning an income. Reciting Surah adh-Dhariyaat every day also increases sustenance.
Writing [al-Fatir: 29-30] and keeping it at the place of trade also acts as a means of increase in income. Keeping [al-Jumu’ah: 4] together with your goods for sale brings blessing and keeps the goods safe from damage. Drinking water in which Surah Yusuf has been dissolved (after writing) also increases sustenance.
Verses that help to quickly repay debts
As mentioned earlier, ayah al-Mulk [Ali-’Imran: 26-27] should be recited for those who wish to repay their debts. One should recite this ayah and then supplicate to Allah (S.w.T.) that he wishes to repay his debts and seeks help for doing so. For the same purpose, the last two verses of Surah al-Baqarah should also be recited after every ‘Isha prayer.
The recitation of ayah al-Kursi after every prayer and reciting Surah al-Waaqi’ah 41 times are other means of getting divine assistance in the repaying of debts.

ABOUT CHAS
I first began painting as a hobby more than 20 years ago, whilst working as an electrician.

I took inspiration from the works of David Hockney and John Piper and experimented with different mediums, from watercolours and gouache, before finally settling with bright, bold acrylic. I love the intensity of colour the acrylic gives, often building up 4 to 5 layers of paint to achieve the depth of colour I like. In 1994, I became a full-time artist and began working from home.

I used to live on St George's Quay in Lancaster and whilst painting one evening, a hot air balloon came floating down the river. I took a photograph and decided to use it in one of my pictures. Over the years, hot air balloons have become a constant in my work and people are often disappointed if I do not put any in a picture.

I continue to be inspired by the people, architecture and landscape of Lancaster, Morecambe and the surrounding area. I also have a passion for the sea and for boats. I love travelling to Devon or Cornwall, watching the fishing boats and visiting beautiful harbour towns such as Dartmouth, Dittisham, Salcolmbe, Coverack Cove and Porthleven.

I am represented by galleries locally and also in Devon and am fortunate to have collectors from New York to New Zealand!

As I have a considerable waiting list for commissions, I rarely get chance to exhibit original paintings, but I do have an annual exhibition every November at the Ashton Memorial, Williamson Park, Lancaster showing retrospective work, a small number of original paintings and all the Limited Edition prints. I have been having this show now for 11 years and it has become quite a social event, often seeing more than 1500 people over the weekend.

I also work in local schools, painting murals with the children and doing art workshops. The children love painting and it's fantastic seeing them get excited about colour, shape and design.

I hope you enjoy looking through this gallery of prints and maybe, they will make you feel happy too!

You can find my work in the following galleries:

The Crescent Gallery, Bare, Morecambe
Town House Gallery, Morecambe
Town House Gallery, Lancaster
Baxter's Gallery, Dartmouth, Devon
Janet Bell Gallery, Beaumaris, Angelsey

nlp, meta model.. ilmu baru untuk saya praktik

dari blog fuad latip


kesedaran .....


===========






Di dalam Neuro Lingustic Programming NLP, terdapat satu teknik yang dikenali sebagai ‘Meta Model‘. Teknik adalah bertujuan untuk memerincikan sesuatu masalah agar mudah untuk diselesaikan.
Contohnya, jika saudara mempunyai masalah perasaan tidak suka dengan kawan saudara sehingga tidak bertegur sapa atau ingin memutuskan perhubungan, cuba perincikan dengan beberapa soalan seperti:
1. Sikap yang mana pada rakan saudara yang saudara tidak suka?
2. Sebelum ini hubungan saudara baik atau tidak dengan rakan saudara itu?
3. Apa yang membuatkan saudara benar-benar terasa dengan rakan saudara itu?
dan pelbagai lagi soalan-soalan yang lebih spesifik untuk mencari punca utama saudara tidak suka dengan rakan saudara. Percayalah, akhirnya barulah saudara ketahui sebenarnya masalahnya cuma sedikit sahaja dan tidak perlu sehingga putus persahabatan.
Meta Model Di dalam Doa
Berapa ramai di antara kita yang benar-benar tersentuh jiwanya ketika berdoa? Sejauh mana kita terasa diri ini adalah hamba ketika berdoa kepada Allah?
Saudara, jika saudara gunakan teknik ‘meta model’ saya amat yakin saudara akan mengalirkan air mata tanpa sedar ketika berdoa. Malah tidak mustahil saudara juga akan menjadi seperti saya akan terus sujud tanpa sedar setiap kali berdoa. Juga pastinya diri kita akan rasa terlalu malu untuk memohon perkara lain yang kita inginkan daripada Allah.
Bagaimana mengaplikasikan meta model ketika berdoa?
Langkah 1
Untuk bahagian doa yang pertama, perincikan segala apa yang saudara miliki samada masa lalu dan juga masa kini. Komunikasi pada Allah, ucapkan terima kasih pada Allah kerana memberi semua rezeki yang saudara perolehi. Sebutkan satu persatu rezeki yang saudara perolehi dengan jelas.
Ya Allah, terima kasih ya Allah kerana menjadikan aku berada di tahap aku sekarang ini. Engkau telah kurniakan isteri/suami dan anak yang dapat membahagiakan diriku ya Allah. Engkau telah berikan aku kerja yang baik di saat orang lain diberhentikan kerja ya Allah. Engkau berikan aku makan sedap setiap hari ya Allah. Engkau beri aku ilmu setiap hari ya Allah.
ya Allah Maha Kaya Engkau memberikan aku kesihatan. Aku boleh jalan ke sana sini dengan isteri/suami dan anak-anak ya Allah. Semalam aku pergi bercuti ke ….. ya Allah. Engkau gembirakan hati kami ya Allah. Engkau tenangkan hati kami ya Allah. Seronoknya ya Allah.
Engkau beri aku rezeki kereta untuk kami jalan ke sana sini. Kemudian semalam kami pergi membeli belah ya Allah. Engkau beri aku rezeki berupa wang membolehkan aku beli baju isteri/suami dan anak-anak ya Allah. Engkau beri aku nafas ya Allah. Engkau beri aku masih boleh makan apa saja yang aku inginkan ya Allah. Banyaknya rezeki yang Engkau berikan kepada ku ya Allah.
Di atas ini adalah contoh doa yang tidak lagi benar-benar spesifik. Saudara spesifikkan sebanyak mungkin agar kita benar-benar terasa banyaknya sebenarnya nikmat dan rezeki yang Allah telah berikan kepada kita. Spesifikkan sehingga ke tahap cth: ya Allah Engkau telah izinkan aku makan nasi ayam tadi ya Allah. Engkau beri nasi ayam yang sedap ya Allah. Terima kasih ya Allah ……….
Langkah 2
Untuk bahagian ini, saudara perincikan pula segala dosa-dosa yang pernah saudara lakukan daripada yang besar sampailah ke sekecil-kecilnya.
Ya Allah, aku solat subuh lambat pagi tadi ya Allah. Aku lebih utamakan kerja aku daripada diriMu ya Allah. Aku marahkan orang ketika memandu tadi ya Allah. Aku jarang mengingati diriMu ya Allah. Teruknya aku ini ya Allah. Bodohnya aku ini ya Allah. Lemahnya diri aku ini ya Allah. Ya Allah, aku lebih suka tengok tv daripada segera bersolat ya Allah.Aku suka menonton hiburan-hiburan yang melalaikan ya Allah lebih daripada mengingati diriMu ya Allah.
Ya Allah, aku marah anak aku tadi ya Allah. Aku marah disebabkan kesalahan yang kecil sahaja ya Allah. Aku menyakiti hati suami/isteri aku tadi ya Allah. Mereka juga makhlukMu ya Allah. Aku berlaku salah dengan makhlukMu ya Allah. Maafkan aku ya Allah.
Langkah 3
Memohon maaf dengan Allah setiap kesalahan yang dilakukan. Minta maaf dengan sebenar-benarnya. Bertaubat kepada Allah dengan sebenar-benar taubat. Tidak akan bahagia dan tenang jiwa selagi kita tidak bertaubat pada Allah.
Langkah 4
Memohon segala apa yang diinginkan daripada Allah. Memohon dengan mengikut protokol doa yang dijelaskan sebelum ini.
Pengalaman saya melakukan doa mengikut teknik meta model ini, saya tidak mampu meneruskan langkah 4 ini. Terasa amat malu pada Allah kerana terlalu banyak yang telah Allah berikan kepada saya tetapi banyak sangat kesalahan yang dilakukan pada Allah.
Lalu saya tidak mampu untuk memohon kepada Allah. Saya cuma mampu berkata :
“Ya Allah, aku memohon kepadaMu segala kebaikan untuk diriku yang mana kebaikan itu adalah yang terbaik disisiMu. Hindarkan aku dari menjadi hamba yang lupakan diriMu. Ingatkan aku sentiasa untuk mengingati diriMu ya Allah. Wujudkan perasaan cinta kepada diriMu di dalam hatiku ya Allah”
***
Saudara, lakukan doa menggunakan teknik meta model dan saudara pasti akan menitiskan air mata sehingga saudara tanpa sedar akan sujud kepada Allah. Saudara akan rasa diri ini terlalu jauh untuk mendapatkan redha Allah. Terlalu banyak lagi ibadah yang perlu dilakukan dan terlalu banyak kesalahan yang perlu meminta keampunan Allah.
Sentiasalah ingatkan Allah dengan berkomunikasi dengan Allah. Komunikasi merupakan faktor utama mendapat CINTA Allah dan juga mewujudkan rasa cinta pada Allah di dalam hati kita. Komunikasilah….komunikasilah dengan Allah.

doa dan usaha untuk solat awal waktu

dipetik dari blog fuad latip


untuk renungan dan amalan saya sebelum mati / ajal menjemput saya.....


dekat rasa nak mati.. adakah aku bersedia?


======================



Mengapa solat awal waktu? Apakah kelebihannya?


Saudara,


Apabila azan dilaungkan maka frekuensi azan akan dirambatkan keserata tempat. Frekuensi azan ini akan merambat ke sekitar dan mampu menjadikan fikiran sesiapa yang mendengarnya ke tahap theta yang paling rendah (deep theta). Untuk memahami tentang frekuensi, sila rujuk artikel frekuensi yang saya jelaskan sebelum ini di sini.
***

Saudara,

Air merupakan salah satu makhluk Allah yang mampu untuk menurunkan frekuensi gelombang otak ke alpha dengan cepat. Kerana itu apabila kita berada di dalam keadaan marah, kita diminta untuk mengambil wudhuk agar kita menjadi tenang.
Begitu juga jika anak menangis. Kita boleh sapukan dengan air sambil meminta izin pada Allah dan berkomunikasi dengan air itu sendiri. Air juga makhluk Allah dan kita meminta bantuan air sepertimana kita meminta pada manusia. Ingatlah semua benda di dunia ini adalah makhluk Allah. Milik Allah.
Juga lagi jika kita berada di dalam keadaan stress akibat kerja yang banyak atau juga stress kerana study (baik untuk mereka yang sedang membuat PhD), minumlah air yang banyak. Air boleh menenangkan stress.
Mohonlah agar diberi ketenangan daripada Allah kerana Allah adalah pemilik kepada air dan diri kita. Mohonlah juga kepada air atas hubungan sesama makhluk iaitu kita dan air.

***

Berbalik kepada solat awal waktu.


Apabila azan dilaungkan maka azan tersebut mampu menurunkan frekuensi otak sesiapa yang mendengar azan tersebut ke tahap theta yang paling rendah (deep theta). Apabila kita mengerja solat ketika ini dan ditambah dengan adanya wudhuk, maka frekuensi fikiran kita akan mampu turun sampai ke tahap theta ataupun sekurang-kurangnya alpha yang paling bawah (deep alpha).
Ketika ini pastinya menjadi mudah untuk mencapai tahap khusyuk.
Deep theta + Alpha = theta atau deep alpha.
Jika kita solat di tengah atau di akhir waktu, maka kemungkinan besar frekuensi otak kita akan kembali ke beta Maka agak sukar sedikit untuk mencapai tahap theta tersebut.

Jika kita bersolat di masjid atau surau secara berjemaah, maka lebih mudah otak kita turun ke theta kerana dari masjid dan suraulah azan dilaungkan. Sebab itu kita lebih mudah mencapai tahap khusyuk jika bersolat di masjid atau surau di awal waktu.
Maha Besar Allah yang menjadikan sesuatu itu tidak ada sia-sianya.

***

Saudara,


Marilah kita berkomunikasi dengan Allah meminta agar kita sentiasa bersolat di awal waktu. Jika kita malas, atau ada lagi kerja yang ingin dilakukan, maka berkomunikasi dengan Allah dengan memohon keizinan untuk solat lewat waktu.
“Ya Allah, aku ingin buat kerta dahulu ya Allah. Aku ingin siapkan sedikit sahaja lagi kerja ini. Aku minta kebenaran padaMu ya Allah. Izinkan aku solat lewat”.
PERCAYALAH. Pengalaman saya berkomunikasi dengan Allah sedemikian rupa TIDAK akan membawa kepada apa-apa kejayaan. Hati dan jiwa saya serta tubuh saya secara automatik akan bangun dan terus mengambil wudhuk untuk mengerjakan solat. Permohonan saya untuk lewat solat sentiasa menemui KEGAGALAN.


***


Saya masih mengkaji hubungan jumlah rakaat dengan frekuensi fikiran. Semoga Allah sentiasa melimpahkan ilmunya kepada kita semua. Ameen.


amin.........

Designing Research for Publication

Designing Research for Publication

Anne Sigismund Huff Technische Universität München







It is easy to be paralyzed by the possibilities and responsibilities of academic work or distracted into one fascinating alley after another without cumulative insight. Even when well underway too many scholars sink into necessary details and do not complete the less inviting tasks that are required to engage the attention of others.

Designing Scholarly Research addresses efforts to avoid these and other pitfalls. It is written especially for those early in their careers who must quickly master the basic mechanics of research and publication if they are to succeed as academics, and for those who try to assist them.

Phronesis

http://www.ttpsoftware.com/phronesis/





In developmental psychologist Robert Kegan’s research he has observed people developing through six stages of self. Other researchers have made similar observations. However, these same researchers have observed a tendency in a majority of people to arrive at a personal ceiling of development that is short of the higher levels.

Most of us simply never reach our developmental potential.

Moreover, Kegan asserts the order of consciousness arrived at by most of us is typically not sufficient to cope effectively with the demands of life in our modern world. Must we settle for a world created and overseen by mediocre minds or is there some way beyond our current species-wide inadequacy of awareness?



Phronesis presents the story of how an ‘alchemy’ that our brains perform in making a series of life-changing transitions may be our best hope for encouraging individual and collective mental development.

Tidak Ada Tuhan

menarik dari sini


http://www.fuadlatip.com/v1/2010/05/tidak-ada-tuhan/


Seorang tukang gunting rambut sedang menggunting rambut seorang lelaki. Mereka banyak bercerita dan tiba satu ketika mereka bercerita tentang ketuhanan.

“saya tidak percaya adanya Tuhan”, kata tukang gunting rambut.

“oh, mengapa tidak percaya adanya Tuhan?”, lelaki itu membalas kata-kata tukang gunting rambut itu.

“Begini, cuba saudara perhatikan di persekitaran kawasan kedai ini sudah cukup membuktikan bahawa tiadanya Tuhan. Jika Tuhan itu ada, pasti tiada sakit, tiada manusia yang bermasalah, tiada manusia yang hidupnya melarat dalam kemiskinan.

Jika Tuhan itu ada, tidak akan ada semua kesusahan. Saya tidak dapat membayangkan Tuhan Yang Maha Penyayang akan membiarkan semua ini terjadi jika benar Tuhan itu ada.

Lelaki itu hanya diam. Dia tidak mahu memberikan apa-apa balasan kerana dia tidak mahu terjadinya pertengkaran pendapat.

Selepas selesai rambutnya digunting dan membayar upah kepada Tukang gunting rambut, lelaki itu keluar dari kedai itu. Sebaik sahaja keluar, beliau ternampak seorang lelaki yang tidak terurus rambutnya. Rambutnya panjang dan sangat kotor.

Lelaki itu masuk semula ke kedai gunting rambut lalu berkata kepada si tukang gunting rambut.

“Wahai tukang gunting rambut, saya sangat yakin kali ini bahawa sebenarnya tiada si tukang gunting rambut.”

“eh, habis tu saya ini siapa? Saya berada di depan mata kamu sebagai tukang gunting rambut. Bagaimana kamu katakan tidak ada tukang gunting rambut?”, Balas tukang gunting rambut.

“Tidak ada tukang gunting rambut. Jika ada, bagaimana boleh ada seperti lelaki di luar sana yang mempunyai rambut panjang yang tidak terurus dan kotor?” lelaki itu menunjukkan lelaki berambut panjang dan kotor itu kepada si tukang gunting rambut.

“Oh..itu salah lelaki itu sendiri kerana dia tidak mahu datang ke kedai saya. Jika tidak pasti saya akan gunting rambut dia dan bersihkannya.”, jawab si tukang gunting rambut dengan yakin.

“Jika begitu bagaimana saudara katakan Tuhan itu tidak ada? Sedangkan saudara dan mereka yang ditimpa kesusahan itu TIDAK PERNAH CUBA MENCARI DAN DATANG KEPADA TUHAN? Tidak pernah cuba memohon kepadaNya untuk berada dekat denganNya.

Oleh kerana itu banyak yang sakit dan ditimpa kesusahan di dunia ini sedangkan Allah SWT itu Maha Penyayang.

Si tukang gunting rambut terdiam dan terpaku kerana tersedar selama ini dirinya tidak pernah mencari Tuhan yang sebenar lalu mengatakan Tuhan itu tidak ada.

Semoga ada manafaatnya dari cerita di atas.

I turn on the tap and the water flows.
Don’t know where it comes from,
Don’t know where it goes,
But it’s clean and clear and it never runs short,
So I never ever give it a second thought.


PART 2:

I walk to the stream in the heat of the day.
It’s a long, long, long, long way.


(PART 1 and PART 2 together)

Same stream where we wash each sheet,
All our dirty clothes and our hands and feet.

Same stream where the crocodile
Drifts and waits for the careless child.

Same stream where we sometimes gloat
At the bloated body of a floating goat.

Same stream where a mile uphill,
The cows do things cows always will.

Same stream with the same old stink,
Nothing else for us to drink.

Same stream where the grubs and worms
Fight for room with a million germs.


(PART 1 and PART 2 together)


ALL:
It’s a long, long, long, long way.

improve Empathic Listening

This technique has helped me a lot and can give AMAZING results.

(Stephen Covey)
(Indian Talking Stick)
(Empathic Listening)
(Covey)
(7 Habits Of Highly Effective People)

© Franklin Covey & Stephen R. Covey



Nice mnemonic presentation of 7 Covey Principles of Success, because i think i got them:
1-Be proactive (think and get going)
2-Begin with end in mind (big picture end game)
3-Put first things first (prioritize, say no to interruptions)
4-Think win-win (try to help everyone you engage with)
5-Seek first to understand then to be understood
6-Synergize (1 plus 1 = 3 once you use all principles)
7-Sharpen the saw (take time now to sharpen tool to save time in long run).

you never listen

what happens when a person is mad at you and say,

" you never listen....."

am I ? is he/she right? what should or will I do?

Do you recognize this phrase? How familiar are the complaints of "How many times have I told you?" or "I feel like I'm talking to a brick wall!" These are the timeless cries of frustrated parents everywhere. Such expressions are all too familiar to moms and dads who feel that they aren't getting through to their children. Yet, parents may be surprised that their children feel the same frustration in talking with them. In fact, children are just as likely as parents to complain that they aren't being heard.1

Most of us would agree that communication is a two-way street. But, we may forget that there's a lot more to communication than expressing ourselves. Sending a message only works if someone else receives it. This is where listening comes in.2

How can parents do a better job of tuning in to what their kids are saying? To start with, we need to realize that, just as communication is more than talking, listening is more than hearing. Children need to feel that they have a parent's complete attention. So, when your child starts to tell you something, stop what you're doing and look at him. Make comments to show that you're working to understand what he's telling you.3

Patience is important, too. Jumping to conclusions, rushing to judgment, or launching into a lecture can make a child wish she had never brought up a subject. Convinced that you just don't get it, she may go off vowing not to approach you again. Give a child a chance to express herself comfortably. In a national survey of middle school students and their parents, more than half of the pre-teens said their parents don't always give them a chance to explain themselves.4 You'll have plenty of time to offer advice. Restraint also increases the chances that she'll take your advice.

Consistency is a key to communication. Good listening habits are important every day, not just when a serious issue comes up. When kids know that parents are willing to hear them out, discussions—even about difficult topics—become easier.5 You and your child won't always agree. Still, keeping the lines of communication open gives you a chance to find out how a child sees himself and the direction he may be taking.

Parents can help children become good listeners. If you're a good listener, it's likely to rub off on your kids.6 As a parent, you will benefit as you find your child paying more attention to what you say. As children become better communicators, they develop skills that will benefit them for life—in school, in personal relationships, at work, and as parents themselves.

You can increase the surface area of a solid by breaking it up
into smaller pieces (see also nanoparticles).
A powder has the largest surface area and will have the fastest reaction rate.
This is why catalysts are often used as powders.

In the reaction between calcium carbonate and dilute hydrochloric acid

HCl + calcium carbonate calcium chloride + carbon dioxide + water.
HCl(aq) + CaCO3(s) CaCl2(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)

calcium carbonate may be used in the form of marble chips.

The reaction rates can be compared using large marble chips,
and the same mass of small marble chips.
The reaction can be followed by plotting the loss of mass against time.

The reaction rate is faster (the slope is steeper)
for the reaction with small marble chips (greater surface area).

Note that the final loss of mass is the same for both reactions.
This is because the same mass of calcium carbonate (marble chips) will
give the same mass of carbon dioxide whether the chips are large or small.
The smaller chips will just do it more quickly.


http://www.gcsescience.com/rc9-increase-surface-area.htm



Increasing the Surface Area of a Solid.

A solid in a solution can only react when particles collide with the surface.
The bigger the area of the solid surface,
the more particles can collide with it per second,
and the faster the reaction rate is.

Ion Analysis : Testing for Anions/Cations

http://www.revisioncentre.co.uk/gcse/chemistry/ion_analysis.html

Testing for Cations

Cations are positively charged (+) ions. There are 2 basic tests for them:

• Flame test
• Adding NaOH (aq) to solution of ionic compound

The flame test involves a clean nichrome wire first being dipped into a solution of Hydrochloric acid. This is then dipped into the solid powdered compound of the metal being tested. This is then held over a Bunsen Burner and the flame colour is observed.

The following results are gained for each ion:

• Na⁺ - Yellow flame
• K⁺ - Lilac (light purple) flame
• Ca²⁺ - Red flame
• Cu²⁺ - Blue / green flame

The second test of adding NaOH (sodium hydroxide) gives a coloured precipitate. The colour of this precipitate reveals which ion is present. The following results are gained for each ion:

• Ca²⁺ White precipitate - Ca(OH)₂ (s)
• Cu²⁺ Blue precipitate - Cu(OH)₂ (s)
• Fe²⁺ Green precipitate - Fe(OH)₂ (s)
• Fe³⁺ Brown precipitate - Fe(OH)₃ (s)

To detect the Hydrogen ion (H⁺), which is not a metal, but still has a positive charge, Universal indicator can be used, which will turn red. (because anything with the hydrogen ion in it is an acid)

======

Testing for Anions

Anions are negatively charged (-) ions and there are many different tests for them. The following table shows the tests and positive results:

Ion	Test	Positive Result
Hydroxide (OH-)	Add an indicator (red litmus) or add an acid	Litmus turns blue or test tube becomes warm
Sulphate (SO4-2)	Add Barium Chloride solution	White solid
Carbonate (CO3-2)	Add an acid	Gas given off which should be CO2 (test with limewater)
Chloride (Cl-)	Add acidified solution of AgNO3 (aq)	White precipitate
Bromide (Br -)	Add acidified solution of AgNO3 (aq)	Cream precipitate
Iodide (I-)	Add acidified solution of AgNO3 (aq)	Yellow precipitate

metallic BONDING chemistry gcse ks4

BONDING

Metallic Bonding

This occurs in metals and is when electrons are given out from the metal atoms to make a "sea" of free electrons in between all of the metal atoms. These free electrons hold the metal as a mass together. This is known as being a giant structure.

The free electrons present make it possible for electricity to be transferred easily because the charge is carried by them. Because the metal atoms have lost electrons, they have a positive charge.

http://www.revisioncentre.co.uk/gcse/chemistry/bonding.html

Ionic Bonding

This occurs typically between a metal and a non-metal (from groups 1 + 2 and 6 + 7 on the periodic table). The metal atom loses electrons which are taken by the non-metal. Therefore, the metal ion produced has a positive charge and the non-metal ion is negatively charged.

Sodium (metal - group 1) + Chlorine (non-metal - group 7) ----> Sodium Chloride (NaCl)

In the example below, the sodium atom has lost an electron to form a positive ion. The chlorine atom has gained the electron lost from the sodium to form a negative ion. The NaCl molecules are arranged in a giant structure to form the substance more commonly known as Salt.

Covalent Bonding

This is when electrons are shared between atoms. Covalent bonding occurs between non-metals due to the fact that all of the atoms need to gain electrons, so they have to share.

Common substances that covalent bonding occurs in: Water (H₂O), Hydrogen gas (H₂), and Methane (CH₄)

maybe she is the one who needs to do solat hajat.....

hmmmmm

think and still thinking....


to my daughter keep praying that you get your answer........



love you...

tempe story

i read it before and again today at here


the conclusions;;;



Morale of the story:
In everyday life, we often pray, and "forcing" God to give us what we think is the most suitable for us. And if our prayer is not granted, we feel abandoned, disappointed. But, God knows best what is most suitable for us. Never place any bad feeling or intention to God and believe His plan is PERFECT.

When God grants us our prayers, He listens to us,
When God delays granting our prayers, He is testing us,
When God doesn't grant us our prayers, He has a better plan for us.

God is perfect and He gives the best to us. He may give something we do not like and as a human being, we kind of like the nice and the things we want not knowing it may be the thing that is bad for us. So when God gives something not of our wish, take it with full acceptance for God is all-knowing.

Do not despair, as God's love is every where.



"...it may be that you dislike a thing and the same is good for you, and you love a thing and the same is bad for you: Allah knows but you do not." [2:216]

For Allah is the best disposer of all affairs. =)




for me. let me say thank you Allah.... as many as i can. please Allah and thank you.

perihal belajar

Setiap orang perlu sentiasa belajar. Belajar tidak akan tamat sehinggalah kita berhenti di persimpangan, samada ke syurga ataupun neraka. Titik persimpangan itulah yang dinamakan kematian.

Bila mahu belajar, hati perlu terbuka. Minda perlu bersedia untuk mempertimbangkan gagasan baru atau memperteguhkan apa yang telah dipelajari. Ramuan untuk belajar yang berkesan ialah melalui guru. Kedua, melalui pembacaan. Ketiga, melalui pengalaman. Alahai… banyak cara untuk belajar jika kita mahu belajar.

mengalami masalah hutang

Sejak krisis kewangan tahun lepas, yang dicetus masalah loan rumah (sub-prime) di Amerika Syarikat, tidak sedikit yang mengalami masalah hutang. Sekiranya keadaan begitu nazak, sehingga kita susah hati tak dapat tidur malam, disyorkan amalan-amalan berikut:


AMALAN MALAM:

M1) solat sunat taubat, 2 rakaat, kemudian

M2) solat tahajud, sekurangnya 2 rakaat, kemudian

M3) baca Surah Yasin, kemudian Sura al-Waqiah Sura al-Imran keseluruhan-nya (atau ayat 26-27 21x), kemudian

[Bacaan Sura al-Imran lebih tepat berdasarkan hadith mengenai mereka yang sudah jatuh miskin - Abdullah ibn Masud (radiAllahu anhu) said, ‘What an excellent treasure Surah al Imran is to the pauper when he recites it in prayer during the last part of the night’ [Darimi 3264/A]

M4) solatul hajat, 2 rakaat, di ikuti doa dilepaskan dari ikatan hutang serta ditindas pemberi hutang.

Doanya (bersandarkan hadith, dari kitab Hisnul Muslim, atau Perisai Muslim) di sini:
http://www.makedua.com/display_dua.php?sectionid=38

Maknanya: YA ALLAH, aku mohon perlindungan dari Engkau, dari susah hati dan kesedihan, sifat malas, bakhil, dan penakut, dan dari beban hutang dan kezaliman orang lelaki (penagih hutang).





‘O Allaah, I take refuge in You from anxiety and sorrow, weakness and laziness, miserliness and cowardice, the burden of debts and from being over powered by men.’


M5) solat witir, 1 rakaat, kemudian tidur atau tunggu solat subuh. Dan sebaiknya solat subuh berjemaah (untuk lelaki) di surau / masjeed(kerana akan dikira kita bertahajud seluruh malam)


AMALAN SIANG-NYA: berikut:

1) Salawat sekurangnya 100x sehari

2) Istiqfar (atau Tasbih Yunos) sekurangnya 100x sehari, tetapi sebaiknya (kerana nazak) 2,000x sehari.

Rupa Tasbih Yunos di sini:
http://www.rawatansihir.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=776

Lakukanlah amalan malam dan siang selama 7 hari berturut-turut, insyALLAH selepas 3-4 malam akan diberi mimpi panduan serta jalan dari arah yang tidak disangka-sangka

Jangan lupa semak pula amalan lain yang menghalang doa seperti menelek, simpan tangkal, tengok aurat orang keliling kita atau dalam TV/majalah, dan makan benda-benda kotor etc:

role of head teacher

http://www.childcarelearninganddevelopment.com/


What role does each person have in the workplace?

Head Teacher

* School’s financial management including all essential duties and financial controls are undertaken. Managing and administering the School’s budget.
* Manages and provides leadership and direction including aims and targets established by the Governing body.
* Philosophy and curriculum of the school.

Why should children's development be holistic and how is each area interconnected?

Why should children's development be holistic and how is each area interconnected?


Holistic is all round development Physical cognitive social emotional


Holistic means interconnected or complete; when a child learns to walk they begin to learn about consequences, trip -fall over- get up. Speech is connected to communication which connects to knowledge of the environment etc. By ensuring a fully rounded appraoch a child becomes confident in their surrounding and their abilities.

=====================

Holistic means the whole person, physically, emotionally, spiritually. It is simple when you look at it, if a child's needs are not met it is harder for them to learn. If they are hungry or sick for example they will not feel like playing. We teach as well as provide for them and just generally take care of them and love them.




====
k2d45
holistic development is looking at how a activivity can support a child in all developmental areas. for example

threading( cereal necklaces)

communication and language

* using mathematical language i.e shorter/longer etc

children must be able to understand what is expected

personal social emotional

* sharing resources participating enjoying and achieving cooperating
can take end product home


physical

* fine motor skills hand eye co-ordination manipulation skills


cognitive

* listen to instructions counting adding measuring comparing

THIS IS JUST A EXAMPLE ACTIVITY BUT CHOSE ANY ACTIVITY AND THEN FILL THE DEVELOPMENAL AREAS IN LIKE ABOVE. JUST THIS ALONE WILL ANSWER K2D45. IF DONE CORRECTLY.

..



an easy way to look at this is trying to fit an activity into just one area of learning - it can't be done !!

So for example an activity like making paints up would cover K+U (what happens to the powder paint when you put water into it) CLL new words/language that may come up as you are talking about colours/cause and effect, PSE co operating with others, Phys skills needed to mix paint,pour the water etc, maths (how much water, more, less, enough etc) creative - using imagination what will happen do you think, etc etc.

The importance of play in children's development

From an early age, play is important to a child's development and learning. It isn't just physical. It can involve cognitive, imaginative, creative, emotional and social aspects. It is the main way most...



the role of play in child development is huge, children learn though play and each toy or object or friend or experience in play helps another developmental stage for example role play or fantasy play provides imitation skills, social skills, imagination skills all this helps them learn and grow. sandpit play provides maths and science concepts eg measuring with the buckets, counting the sand castles, and heaps more. social play provides interaction, cause and effect, engages in conversation skills


The importance of play in children's development

pupils enjoy reading more

Primary pupils enjoy reading more and feel more confident about their reading skills than secondary pupils (NLT, 2005).

literacy level

One in five children in this country leave primary school with literacy levels below those expected of an 11-year–old.

children develop at widely different roles,but in broadly the same sequence.

children develop at widely different roles,but in broadly the same sequence.


children develop generally in the same sequence such as babies learn to roll over before they sit up for example and children say single words before they string two or three together in early sentences but its important to understand that children develop at different rates,children of the same age may not all reach the milestones at the same time or some might walk early but talk late but they generally develop in the same sequence roll, sit up , crawl, walk etc.

more or less

More or Less

To most people, progress always means "more." Quite a few worthwhile developments, though, have resulted in "less."

There was once a marvelous invention called the "horseless" carriage.

Then came the "wire-less" telegraph. And now the "cordless" telephone.

Credit cards foreshadow the "cash-less" society; electronic funds transfer systems, the "check-less."

Much progress attended the arrival of "water-less" printing -- better known by its Greekish name, "xerography." (The law of unintended consequences has prevailed. Thus, nearly submerged in a paper deluge, we turn to ubiquitous personal computers electronically networked together. The office of the future might indeed be "paper-less.")

The "feather-less" chicken didn't work out very well, but the "seed-less" grape did.

Some say the "bark-less" dog and the "smoke-less" cigar wouldn't be bad ideas for their neighbors and spouses, respectively.

So, why not the "motor-less" cycle?

Future

In varying degrees, all persons are futurists.

The future is illuminated only by opinion. There are no facts about the future.

Debate is the ineluctable activity of the futurist.

An analogy serves no purpose in speculative controversy except to illustrate an agreed-upon point.

Think seriously about principles. Make your assumptions explicit. Invent a future. Then find a debating partner.

Be suspicious of all utterances that start out in the first person singular. The least reliable source of the common experience is oneself.

You want the common experience? Watch daytime television.

An average is just one measure of "central tendency."

You can drown in a lake the average depth of which is one foot.

Watch those "bimodal distributions." The average American has one breast and one testicle.

People often see in the future what they think ought to happen, not what they think will happen. It is easy to contaminate prediction with advocation.

Surprise-free projections can turn to mindless extrapolation. According to early predictions, all adult women by now should be employed as telephone operators.

"Those who ignore the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them." Taking this literally can be foolish. Time is the great innovator. Consider each option on its own merits.

"We did that before and we got into trouble." Yes, but (1) did we do it right? (2) If we had not done it, would we still have gotten into trouble? (3) Even more trouble?

Don't forget, for every "because-of," there is at least one "in-spite-of."

Thinking hypothetically in the past tense is injurious to the mind. Thinking hypothetically about the future is all you have.

The law of unintended consequences will always prevail.

The futurist must think unthinkable thoughts about social dislocations, about a world without petroleum, about nuclear winter, about...

development milestones





Infancy and Toddler (Birth to 3 Years)

Physical Development

(Birth - 1 year) - The development of control and mastery over one's own body in
both gross and fine motor skills is the infant's primary physical task, culminating
toward the end of the first year in walking.

(Age 1-2 years) - The infant perfects the gross and fine motor skills that emerged
during the first year by developing balance, coordination, stability, and an improved
ability to manipulate objects.

(Age 2-3 years) - The child develops increased strength and uses motor skills to
master challenges in the environment, such as bicycles, stairs, balls, playground
equipment, eating utensils, crayons, and other objects. The child is developmentally ready to master toilet training.



Cognitive Development

(Birth - 1 year) - Cognition begins with alertness, awareness, recognition, and
interest in visual, auditory, and tactile (touch) stimuli. As motor development
improves, the infant begins to explore and manipulate objects and develops a
rudimentary understanding of their properties. Infants develop object permanence
toward the end of the first year.

(Age 1-2 years) - The emergence of symbolic thought is central to cognitive
development. This results in the ability to understand and produce language.

(Age 2-3 years) - Perfection of language skills and the use of language to
communicate with others is the principle cognitive task.



Social Development


(Birth - 1 year) - The most important social task is the development of attachment to the primary caretaker, most often the child's mother.

(Age 1-2 years) - The child develops affectionate and trusting relationships with
other family members and with adults outside the family. The child can also be
engaged in simple games and play.


(Age 2-3 years) - The child develops rudimentary relationships with other children,
which are usually characterized by "parallel play," that is play in the presence of,
rather than in interaction with, other children. Children also begin to imitate social roles at this time. Toilet training represents a significant internalization of social rules and expectations.



Emotional Development

(Birth - 1 year) - The development of basic trust, a derivative of the positive
attachment between the infant and the primary caretaker, occurs during the first
year. This is a cornerstone of emotional development.

(Age 1-3 years) - The primary developmental task involves the development of
autonomy, which includes mastery and control over oneself and one's environment.
Children develop a rudimentary self-concept, experiencing pride and pleasure at
being "good" and embarrassment, shame, and distress at being "bad."
