CONFLICT CAN CREATE IMPROVEMENTS
Conflict is an unavoidable fact of life, but how we deal with it as a leader is the key to how it impacts the rest and ongoing operations of the organization. As leaders, we have a responsibility to effectively manage conflict quickly and to keep it from spiraling out of control. The leader must demonstrate professionalism, courtesy, and fairness in all situations and especially when dealing with conflict.
Reflecting on what had happened few hours back, I am not sure whether the problem was solved. Frankly speaking, the meeting has actually created another problem. It has invited unpleasant atmosphere which is yet to reach its end. Call me a sceptic if you wanted too..
That is the underlying danger which if it surfaces later would ultimately become the 'silent killer.' Reason being is that, we have not decided on what ground shall we move on from now on. We were only assuming that everything would be fine without seeking for justification or establishing any form of 'MoU' (ceh!); whic I think IMPORTANT!!
Whatever the future might hold, shall we face any predicament of any sort, let's pray that it would be wisely tackled; not emotionally handled. And I do hope that this dispute would be an eye-opener for some (though I hardly think that that somebody would ever CHANGE..)
Peace!! :P :)
Psychologist, Nicoleta Cramaruc
- Identify the type of the conflict - this first step is very important because each type of conflict (interpersonal conflicts, intergroup conflicts, interest conflicts, value conflicts, relationship conflicts, emotional conflicts) needs a certain strategy.
- Be aware of the aggressive responses and their consequences, also of the alternatives - aggressiveness generates just aggressiveness, only finding out alternative ways to react to the violence you can stop the boomerang effects of the violence.
- Face up the conflict rather than avoid it - you have to be aware of the negative consequences such as irritability, tension and the persistence of the problems, if you avoid the conflict.
- Respect yourself and your interests, but also the other and his interests - everyone must have a positive self-image and the proper respect so the insights on the conflict to be realistic. The approach based on respect always eliminates inappropriate tactics.
- Accept and understand cultural differences - people around you are from various cultures which imply different ways of thinking, dressing, beliefs and values. So something that is obvious and right to some of us could be otherwise for other ones.
- Make the difference between interests and “taking stands” - the positions of some people could be opposite even if their interests are not. For example, two people want the same object but each one is interested on some part or advantage of it.
- Explore personal and other’s interests to identify common ideas and compatibilities - when you analyze not only your but also other’s attitudes, it increases the empathy between you and the probability to find out a solution to the problem.
- Consider conflict interests as a mutual problem that can be solved by cooperation - if you can’t identify a way to the mutual gain, at least set up some rules for the mutual understanding.
- Communicate and listen to the other - try to put yourself in his position, efficient communication is an important element for finding a constructive solution. Active listening has to be the primary and only behavior in a conflict because it helps to find out other’s opinion.
- Be careful to elements like subjectivity, subjective perception of reality, thinking stereotypes present in a conflict - generally, subjective perceptions and judgments make hard to reach the empathy. Further on, there is an obvious tendency to assign aggressive intentions to the other.
Don't be a fool
Suffocates
Your arrogance
Asphyxiates
You turn yourself a black sheep
Your history would not be a legendary
I don't know to whom and to what you should belong
It was a mistake to get to know you
Once my heart was filled with endless gratitude
and only that once
How much you have bothered my life
Amazes me
This is not what I dreamt about
I am no longer a fool now
I dream
Where are the colours?
Where are the butterflies?
Am I displaced?
Blanketed by darkness
Eaten alive by this dimness
I am now lost...
Light a candle someone,
Please..
Please...
This I just a dream..
Yeah,
THIS IS ONLY A DREAM,
Not more than a dream..
Let it remain a dream..
The fallen
I fall,
Stumbled and all puzzled.
I have to swallow
Not my accomplishment,
Not my feat or triumph,
But my defeat.
I am now crushed,
And officially a trash...
This one too, dedicated to you...
Pejam Matamu by Dato Siti Nurhaliza
Kau dan aku
Di waktu itu
Cuba meniti titian
Lalu tersungkur
Kita tertawa
Kini semuanya
Kenangan saja
Dan kita telah dewasa
Engkau pun berjaya
Aku di sini bhagia
Reff #
Dulu engkau
keseorangan
Kerna kealpaanmu
Oh... puncanya
hilang arah tujuan
Bersama beriring
Melangkah seganding
Setiap detik kau tempuh(inya)
Dengan nafas kesungguhan
Dengar bisikku
Temanku
Genggam tanganmu
Pejam sekejap matamu
Lihatlah cahaya menunggu
Gapailah setiap cita mu
Dan kenal isi kulit mu
Kan ada hidup yang baru (2x)
Yang satu
Bermula di sini
Takkan hilang nanti
Bersatu teman abadi
Kan terus sejati
Menciptaa lagi memori
Seindah biasa.. Dedicated to my dearest Cohort 3
Thinking of attaching the song inside. So unfortunate that my ICT skill is reasonably poor.. Too bad, huh..
Jalan pernah takut ku tinggalkan
Saat bintang tak mampu lagi berdendang
Saat malam menjadi terlalu dingin
Hingga pagi tak seindah biasanya
Takkan mungkin kita bertahan
Hidup dalam bersendirian
Panas terit hujan badai
Kita lalui bersama
Saat hilang arah tujuan
Kau tahu ke mana berjalan
Meski terang meski gelap
Kita lalui bersama
Ku tak bisa menrubah yang telah terjadi
Tapi aku akan menjanjikan yang terbaik
Agar kita tak pernah menjadi jadi
Meski beza dermaga untuk kita berlabuh
Pernah kita jatuh
Mencuba berdiri
Menahan saki dan menangis
Tapi erti hidup lebih dari itu
Dan kita mencuba melawan

I thought it was mine
Slowly sunken,
Drowning,
My dream shattered,
Can I dream once more?
Streaming in tears I shall not,
I must continue on tenterhooks,
Steadying my grasp,
Inviting new promising probability.
For once,
I thought it was mine,
And it is not meant to be mine,
YET!
But,
I ought to be importunate,
For later,
In future,
It would certainly be mine.

I am a kaki bangku..
I was from the stadium just now. Normally, I went straight to the hostel after jogging for 3 or 4 rounds (for the meantime). And it was out of my evening routine. Just now however, I took a different route. I went to the sports arena and there I was sitting from a distance watching and observing people showing of their skills; kicking, dribbling so forth. It seemed like people were enjoying themselves playing futsal, basketball, squash and volleball.
U cant imagine how intensely I wish that I could be anyone of them. Deep down, I have the feeling to just walk into one of the courts and ask them whether I could join them. But, I have no gut realizing that I am a kaki bangku.
I just find no fascination at all in sports. I did try to play football with the guidance of my closest friend. I admitted that somehow I found it delightful. Once in a blue moon, ironically, I also found myself enjoying the good football or badminton or any other matches. But, it is momentary.
I would rather keep mum when the focus of a conversation is sports-related. Even worse, I would slowly drag my foot away. Not having A SKILL in any sports makes me feel less manly. I found myself incomplete, imperfect and curtailed!
Anyhow, I have to sweat my dilemma out. That's why, I make jogging a habit. I go to the gym intermittently too. Would those be considered as a part of sports after all?
There is something
Washing my soar, purplish heart,
Draining my tainted entity away,
I need to feel re-purified,
All this while,
Maybe I have been thinking too much,
Maybe I have been asking too much,
Maybe I have been giving in too much,
Let me now squeeze in some place for my soul,
To be alive and start kicking again,
And to find a LIFE
I could now feel it,
There is something abuze in the air.
Dark tuxedo
His lips are tightly closed,
His eyes are snugly shut,
He is in his perfect composure,
So smart he seems,
Departing to a new arrival,
He has now gone forever,
In his brand new, dark tuxedo.
You have to know that you have a friend
Call a true friend an IDIOT if you wanted too.. Foolishly waiting for you no matter what you have done to his or her life, no matter how much damage, no matter how badly ruined his of her life; a true friend would always be there, patiently waiting. That is the wonder of the heart of a true friend that I hardly own.
I was once afraid of making friends. I would undoubtedly be such a stupid-arse if I did. I tot it would be too risky to be emotionally attached to anybody. Life would not just stop there regardless of whatever has taken place. Let me quote my very own quoatable quotation. "Through mistake I learnt, through you I walk steadily." So, dare yourself. Enrich your life. Things happen and each comes with a momentous reason. Let's learn and never stop learning. For once u have fallen, u now that there would be handful of hands reaching out for you and surely would lift u up. It is important to know that you got a friend. Let's unleash the art and the mystifying journey of a FRIENDSHIP..
Welcome back!!
And you are now finally home,
Emptiness is now fading,
My soul may forever stop searching,
All it needs is yours to make it complete,
And to make things happen,
Illuminating and transpiring in this world of magic,
Friendship is not just a term,
It is more than life than just plain camaraderie,
Welcome back..

People change
Break free
Letting my mind wanders,
Allowing myself to be observed by the motherly nature,
Seeking peace in peacefulness,
Wanting solace in serenity,
Making myself fluid,
Needing to break free,
To get myself ready for any new possibility.

Walter is now bald
There I was, inside QQ Cut. I told the hairdresser that I want to have Beckham's as suggested by Kim. She professionally got it done. Then, I insisted that I want my hair to be shorter. She reluctantly followed my order. Instead she was trying her best to convince me that the Beckham's suit me the best. But, I urged her to go for 3. (0 =botak, 1= 0.1mm , 2=o.2mm, hair left, maybe). She was evidently reluctant. I then told her that I have made up my mind, that I was certain and that it is what i want. Still not convinced, she asked me to sit back and give it another consideration. I told her to just get it done. I heard a weak yes from her. She started off with my right half and asked me to look in the mirror. Owh my!!! My eyes were teary and I could only smile. I shrugged and asked her to proceed.. How else then? And now, I am hiding it under my snowcap. Hahahaha...

My Way to Pump That Extra Baggage Out
2. No rice policy
3. Drinking Natural Clenx Tea plus Madu Liar after each meal
4. Walk to the hostel after lecture
5. Less red meat
6. More vege and fish
7. Drink plenty of plain water to assist natural detoxification
8. Avoid outing otherwise I would end up in KFC, McD so forth
9. I need passion and sheer determination
10. I need you to guide me through and remind me of my mission
Inferiority Complex
The other day, I went for CNY shopping with Robin at Mid Valley. We practically went into each and every shop that we tot wd offer us a very appealing collection. After walking in and out of each apparell outlet, surprisingly, our hands are still moving freely. One of the biggest shopping malls in Malaysia is unbelievably unaccommodating.
Actually, Robin has a lot more choices than I do. Robin ya ngegeh bah! Just kidding..The real problem is that none of the T-shirt or shirt that I like fits me well. Have u ever seen a rice sack before? Huh.. Now u get me.. I lost every chance to show off my good taste in fashion.
Well, it may not be so much of the physical attribute that worries me the most. Let I put some more better insight into this very narrow perspective of mine. Maybe it is not INFERIORITY COMPLEX that I am experiencing. Maybe I am health conscious. Am now seriously working to lose extra pounds. Just wait for the result maybe in these two-months. U may start counting now.. Let's see how serious I am..
Let go
For your heart would be aching, throbbing
Don't you pretend any more
For it would be injurious, damaging
Don't you play with words,
For the hope you are building is untrue,
Don't you clutch on my hand,
Loosen your grip,
Let me go..
For it is the best for I and YOU..

Waking up to the blue sky
Makes my heart sings euphorically,
The cold wind
warmly welcome my soul and body to this fantastic reality,
Tenderly carressing my skin,
So light I feel and so bouncy I seem
In ecstacy,
Sliding on a dazzling rainbow,
Hoping to find a golden pot at the other end,
But such I shall not find,
On a brilliant day.
So selfish I may sound,
Wanting to double the sparkle I now see,
I better take it slowly,
One step at a time,
Enjoying the blessed morning I shall be,
Unwrapping the ultimate gift of tranquility,
Slowly and steadily,
To the rhythm that promised me glee.
When you walk away
When you walk away,
Life has lost its wonder,
I lost my direction,
I can dream no more.

Easy vs Difficult
By John Deru
Easy to get a place in someone's address book
Difficult is to get a place in someone's heart
Easy is to judge the mistakes of others
Difficult is to recognize our own mistakes
Easy is to talk without thinking
Difficult is to refrain the tongue
Easy is to hurt someone who loves us
Difficult is to heal the wound...
Easy is to forgive others
Difficult is to ask for forgiveness
Easy is to set rules
Difficult is to follow them...
Easy is to dream every night
Difficult is to fight for a dream...
Easy is to show victory
Difficult is to assume defeat with dignity...
Easy is to admire a full moon
Difficult to see the other side...
Easy is to stumble with a stone
Difficult is to get up...
Easy is to enjoy life every day.
Difficult is to give its real value...
Easy is to pray every night
Difficult is to find God in small things...
Easy is to promise something to someone
Difficult is to fulfill that promise...
Easy is to say we love
Difficult is to show it every day...
Easy is to criticize others
Difficult is to improve oneself...
Easy is to make mistakes
Difficult is to learn from them...
Easy is to weep for a lost love
Difficult is to take care of it so you wont lose it.
Easy is to think about improving
Difficult is to stop thinking it and put it into action...
Easy is to think bad of others
Difficult is to give them the benefit of the doubt...
Easy is to receive
Difficult is to give
Easy is to keep friendship with words
Difficult is to keep it with meanings
Easy to read this
Difficult to follow
