991

I called 991 this Thursday. It was the first time in my life to call this number.

I was riding my motorcycle to my office. It was around 8:25p.m.. When I was at Lebuhraya Codrington, the junction of Penang Island Hospital, I heard a scream that followed by a cry. I slowed down my motorcycle.

I saw somebody was lying on the road and the body was bleeding. I called it body here because I couldn't recognise whether the body is a male or female. I stopped my motorcycle by the road side and called 991 at once. 

The call was diverted to emergency unit. After I had told them the location and some other details, they passed me to the ambulance. I was fed up that time because they should have passed me to the ambulance when I said the body was bleeding. Due to this, I had to tell the ambulance the exact location again! It was just wasting our time.

Then, I walked over to have a look at the victim. She was an Indian woman but the girl crying was a Malay, so I guessed she was her daughter. Many people rolled their sleeves up to give a helping hand. Some of them moved her motorcycle to the road side while others were assisting the victim. She couldn't move, I believed there were injuries on her limbs and head. 

I didn't wait there any longer since I was still rushing to my office. I hoped she would get well soon.

天生我必有用？

Yo，上个星期四，我跟我的同事，T.M.C.出席了一场“栋笃笑”。其实一开始我也不知道那究竟会是一场什么讲座，我的上司邀请我去，同时希望我携带一些朋友参加。我约了好几位，但是最终只有T.M.C.一人。

开场后，我才了解当天的主题。不过没有关系，因为我全场笑到爆！因此我把它当成一场现场版的“栋笃笑”。主讲师是来自柔佛的Simon Pua。他的口才很好，slideshows 也不错，唯一美中不足的是时间不够，所以他就以机关枪一样的速度来呈现。可是，这并不损整场演讲的精彩度。

或许Simon以前是auditor吧，因此他给的例子都跟我现实的写照很像！悲哀啊，笑死我了！好了，今天的主题“天生我才必有用”。我想请问大家，这句话对吗？其实，并没有所谓的对与错。真正的答案就视乎你当时的心境吧！

对我来说，这句话是对的。但是，倘若可以像主讲师那样给它稍微修改一下的话，那会更好！怎样？是不是很好奇主讲师给它如何修改一番了呢？好吧，马上为大家解答，“天生我才，自己用；不好用，才给别人用”！我当时真是爆笑一场。相信，我不需要在这里为大家一一解析当中的意思吧！

其中，他提到“穷爸爸，富爸爸”的“E.S.B.I”。“B”和“I”暂时还不是我的阶段，但是那是我的目标。现在很多人都在“E”。“E”代表什么呢？它代表帮老板实现愿望。很多人都不愿意“S”，尤其是accountants或auditors，因为他们被他们的专业影响，过于prudent。但是，“S”是为自己实现梦想啊！

每次我问人家梦想时，大家十之八九都很有理想的，但是却不愿实践它，只是在那儿瞎谈。需知道，“天下没有免费的午餐”。你甭想不付出就可以得到某样东西，难道你不知道“不劳而获”几乎是不可能的吗？别天真了！

为何不趁年轻时出来闯一番？趁大家commitment还不多，何不给自己一个实现梦想的机会？反正，我们的文凭又不会过期的。都说了嘛，“天生我才，自己用；不好用，才给别人用”！

你甘愿当个员工吗？你知道工作分为四类吗？第一种，高风险、低收入。这类人最为可怜，他们是“三怨人”。何谓“三怨”？即怨老板、怨政府、怨自己！他们总是怨老板吝啬；怨政府不修改法令帮助他们；还有怨自己当初为何不努力读书。

第二种，低风险、低收入。这群人便是打工一族啦，他们是“三等人”。即等加薪、等花红、等假期！这类人每天只会埋头苦干，为的只是月尾拿薪水，年尾拿花红，还一直暗算着假期的到来。何苦呢？为什么不抬头看看这世界？

第三种，高风险、高收入。这群人就是生意人、投资人。他们是冒险一族，他们情愿砸一笔钱来投资或者做生意。成功的话，就会被赞眼光独到；失败呢便被贬为不切实际！而最后一种人呢，则是低风险、高收入。这类人便是推销员。读到这里，你究竟是属于哪一类人呢？而你又想成为哪一类人呢？

吃苦，你们怕吗？倘若你怕吃苦，那你就一辈子吃苦；如果你不怕吃苦，那你就辛辛苦苦前几年，幸福舒服一辈子。读到这里，你又是否愿意吃苦呢？给你自己一个机会，好好静思一下。想想你的梦想，想一想你现在的前途。

在我结束今天的部落格之前，容许小弟给个问题大家思考。“努力与选择，哪一个比较重要？”大家不妨踊跃参与，同时也可以联络小弟，大家来个交流、面谈。
