On effort...

Achtung:  Bahasa Rojak Alert!!

Off late, I have been giving, making and discussing about effort.

I give 100% effort to key in certain task that I do not wish to talk about it here.

I make effort to stay patient and calm in the course of keying in the task.

Now I am talking or rather typing about effort.

The only thing I can say about effort is...use is with cautious.

Let us look closely about effort in different perspectives.

In work.  

Pro- We should give 100% effort. In  my line or any other line pun, kerja mesti sungguh-sungguh. Tak boleh main-main. So, you have to give like your 100% commitment and not just your best-effort. Macam Streamyx tu..haha. If we have given our full commitment and effort, hopefully everything we get out of it is halal. But, I know, its easier said than done. There are times when we take our job for granted. 

Cons- Tapi ada situasi yang apa yang saya cakap ni tak boleh nak apply.  Macam cikgu, sekarang ni kalau cakap pasal SPPBS sume akan melenting. Because, despite our serious effort to get into the web, most of the time we fail. Macam sia-sia tunggu depan laptop tu.  So, dalam kes ni saya rasa..if you wait more than 10 minutes for the thing to load, don't wait. You are wasting your precious time. Shut your computer down and get a good sleep. Get up at 3 o'clock and you might be lucky then.

Life, Love All In One.

Pro- Be it work or life, the rule is the same. Usaha sungguh-sungguh. Man jadda wa jada. Orang yang berusaha akan berjaya.  If, I said if thing is not working out the way you want it but you have tried your very best Allah the Almighty surely have something better for you. Kalau dah usaha tu even gagal pun perasaannya lain.  We won't be having the thought like "kalaulah aku usaha lebih sikit hari tu".

Cons- This is applicable especially in relationship. I might not be the correct person to talk about this but this is from my observation or may be own experience here and there. Kadang-kadang kita suka sangat dengan sesuatu atau seseorang hingga buat kita buat apa saja untuk mendapatkannya. If it's a relationship, we would do anything just to stay in it.  Something to ponder upon, is it really worth it to hold on to and give all your effort in holding on to it?  If you think that you are putting in more effort than the other party than may be it's the sign that he/she is not worth it.  May be he/she does not appreciate the relationship as much as you do. And the best way of knowing if he/she is really worth it or not is by letting go. Janganlah gunakan siapa berusaha dia akan berjaya tu. Some things are just not meant to be. No matter how hard you try.

In simple word, you have to know when and to what extend should you give your 100% undivided effort. Berpada-pada saja.  Cautiously. Some might say, peduli apa..just ignore the risk and take the fall...but just make sure it's worth it all. Remember, (orang kata..bukan saya kata) effort is only effort when it begins to hurt. Be smart and calculate the risk. If it's worth it then cubalah hingga berjaya. If not then macam saya kata tadi, Allah tentu dan aturkan yang lebih baik untuk kita. All the best. To us. To me.

 

What count is not the number of hours you put in, but how much you put in the hours
