10 Rutin Pagi Yang Dilakukan Oleh Seorang Jutawan Akhirat

Dipetik dari emel Dr Azizan Osman.

“Apakah 10 Rutin Pagi Yang Dilakukan Oleh Seorang Jutawan Akhirat?”

Jika kita ingin lihat samada kita bakal menjadi seseorang yang berjaya dalam jangka masa panjang, cuba perhatikan adakah kita mempunyai rutin pagi yang bagus, sihat dan produktif.

Salah satu perkara yang mengesahkan rutin pagi saya merupakan rutin kebanyakan mereka yang berjaya terutamanya jutawan ialah ketika saya bertemu Robin Sharma, penulis buku laku keras "The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari" serta billionaire pemilik Virgin Airlines, Sir Richard Branson di satu forum di Toronto baru-baru ini.

Di dalam forum tersebut, saya hadir bersama 140 orang yang berjaya di dalam pelbagai industri mereka dari 45 buah negara dalam dunia dan di kalangan kami merupakan multi-millionaire, billionaire dan philanthropists serta business leader.

Di antara perkara yang kami bincangkan atau kenal pasti adalah tentang apakah yang dilakukan oleh mereka yang berjaya setiap hari? Apakah perkara utama yang mempengaruhi kehidupan kami serta menjadi kunci penting untuk kejayaan kami dalam tempoh jangka masa panjang.

Dan di sini saya kongsikan salah satu perkara utama yang menjadi asas utama kejayaan mereka yang berjaya adalah rutin atau ritual mereka setiap pagi dan suka saya berkongsi dari segi perspektif rutin seorang jutawan akhirat (Dan mudah-mudahan dunia akhirat) :-

1. Bangun awal pagi seawal 4 pagi dan paling lambat 5 pagi (Sebab itu penting untuk tidur awal 9   malam selewat-lewatnya 10 malam)

2. Mandi kerana ia menyihatkan tubuh (Ini juga sunnah Nabi saw)

3. Solat taubat, tahajud, hajat dan istikharah (Ini rutin setiap awal pagi) / Solat tasbih 4 rakaat (Perlu bangun awal lakukan ini, sekurang-kurangnya 4 pagi) / Solat Witir (Dan ini perlu selesai 10-15 minit sebelum azan suboh)

4. Baca beberapa surah atau juz' Al-Quran atau amalan wirid-wirid yang baik sementara menunggu suboh

5. Berjemaah di masjid atau berjemaah bersama keluarga

6. Pastikan solat fajr 2 rakaat sebelum qamat untuk solat fardu suboh, ia adalah 2 rakaat solat sunat yang lebih berat timbangan amalannya dari dunia dan isinya (hadis)

7. Selepas solat membaca Al-Quran atau wirid-wirid tertentu sementara menunggu matahari naik untuk solat sunat Isyra' bila matahari naik.

8. Minum pagi / sarapan

9. Exercise untuk 30-60 minit (Mendengar bahan audio yang bagus ketika exercise)

10. Solat dhuha (Selepas exercise dan mandi)

Sekiranya anda belum mampu lakukan semua di atas, anda boleh lakukan mana yang anda mampu sebagai permulaan. Rutin jutawan bukan Muslim tidak banyak beza kecuali bab amalan kita sebagai orang Islam. Biasanya mereka akan lakukan meditasi seperti yoga atau taichi seawal 5 pagi dan exercise, membaca bahan bacaan ilmiah dan menulis perancangan hari mereka.

Saya mencadangkan anda menulis perancangan hari anda pada waktu malam sebelum anda berehat.

Ini hanya guideline untuk anda dan saya telah memulakannya sejak tahun 2001 lagi, cuma di perkemaskan over the years dan disesuaikan dengan tugas harian seperti ketika travel atau mesyuarat awal pagi.

Hidup kita yang best bermula dari awal pagi, ambil sarapan yang sihat dan makanan seperti raja di pagi hari.

*Ingat:-

1. Jika anda mahu membina hidup yang berkualiti, anda boleh mulakan sebahagian dari rutin di atas atau mengikut kesesuaian anda. Jika tidak mampu buat semua, jangan tinggalkan semua. Dan cuba lakukannya dengan baik terutamanya ketika hari cuti.

2. Jika anda bekerja, adjust rutin ini.

3. Kejayaan bermula dari rutin, habit atau disiplin over the years dan kejayaan tidak datang secara  insiden.

Jika baik amalkan, jika tidak abaikan.

Semoga perkongsian ini boleh memberi manfaat kepada yang membaca. Terima kasih Dr Azizan Osman!!!

Happy New Year! This Year Believe In Yourself And Achieve Everything You Deserve!

Healthy Eating: An Islamic Perspective

Alhamdulillah, this weekend had the opportunity to do a bit of research for a project that we're doing with our brother Johan in Langkawi. It's a great opportunity to collaborate with our brother and the best part is because it is a huge project to showcase the connection of Islam as a way of life not only on the basis of what is taught in the Quran and Sunnah but also how the actions and teachings can be justified through science in terms of the benefits. The goal is dakwah so that people can see the truth and be guided. But most importantly for ourselves is the opportunity to discover and learn the greatness of Allah. InsyaAllah.

Today, I am excited to share some info on healthy eating! But from an Islamic perspective. I came across this great blog and it had a good article so I thought it would be great to share it here. So hope you get something out of it, InsyaAllah. Enjoy...

Healthy Eating: An Islamic Perspective

By Hafiz Mohammed Zahid

Why it's essential for our physical and spiritual well-being

To live in Islam is not merely preparing for the Hereafter, but also to live a complete way of life right here in this world. Hence, the question of healthy living, which has become a much-discussed issue nowadays, is not new to Muslims.

From an Islamic perspective health is viewed as one of the greatest blessings that Allah has bestowed on mankind. It should be noted that the greatest blessing after belief is health.

Health is indeed a favour that we take for granted. We should express gratitude to Allah for bestowing us with health, and we should try our utmost to look after it. Allah has entrusted us with our bodies for a predestined period of time. He will hold us to account on how we looked after and utilised our bodies and health.

The Importance of a balanced diet
Various verses and texts within Islam promote the eating of healthy wholesome food and eating in moderation. Allah clearly states in the Quran:

"Eat of the good things which We have provided for you. (2:173) Eat of what is lawful and wholesome on the earth." (2:168)

A healthy nutritious diet must also be balanced, in order to maintain the balance that Allah has established in all things, this is addressed in the Quran when Allah says:

"And He enforced the balance. That you exceed not the bounds; but observe the balance strictly; and fall not short thereof." (55:7-9) 

As we know, eating excessively causes harm to our systems. Many ailments are related to uncontrolled eating habits such as, diabetes, vascular diseases, stroke, heart attack etc. It has been said that the 'stomach is the home of ill health' and is usually responsible in some way to ill health. Islam teaches us to eat moderately:

"Eat and drink, but avoid excess." (20:81).

Over indulgence and wasting of food are further dissuaded in the Hadith of the Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him):

'"No human being has ever filled a container worse than his own stomach. The son of Adam needs no more than a few morsels of food to keep up his strength, doing so he should consider that a third of his stomach is for food, a third for drink and a third for breathing." (Ibn Maja)

Physical and spiritual well-being
At a physical level, the Qur'an and the sunnah encourage healthy eating, and at the same time forbid all substances that cause bodily harm: intoxicants, drugs, and so forth. Fruits and vegetables, dates, yoghurt, milk, natural honey, black seeds, and the like are especially emphasized for their nutritious quality and health benefits.

From a spiritual angle, controlling our diet trains us in self-control. When food is spread out in large delicious quantities and there is a temptation to gorge ourselves, we are required to control our appetites and develop a sense of moderation in eating.

With regards to moderation, Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said: "Muslims should be people who eat only when they are hungry." That is to say, unnecessary snacks taken in between meals should be avoided. The Prophet also said: "It is good to be always a little hungry." Thus, over-eating can be avoided.

Fasting in Ramadhan, apart from the spiritual and other self-control benefits derived from it, also has health benefits. It cleanses and relaxes the stomach and gives it a "rest from work" for about 16 hours a day for a month once a year. Other than the Ramadhan fast, Muslims are urged to undertake voluntary fasting as much as they could at any time throughout the year. Some Muslims make a point to fast every Monday and Thursday following the Sunnah (practice) of the Prophet. Fasting also enable a Muslim to lose fat and unnecessary weight.

What we should be eating
Many of us want to be fitter and healthier but have no energy for exercise at the end of a working day, or time to plan nutritious meals throughout the week. However just a moderate increase in your activity levels and a small decrease in energy taken in from food could make us healthier, happier, and more productive. Improving your diet and daily exercise is not as daunting as it sounds.

It is recommended by nutritionists that to have a healthy diet most people should be eating:

• More fruit and vegetables
• More starchy foods such as rice, bread, pasta (try to choose wholegrain varieties when you can) and potatoes
• Less fat, salt and sugar
• Some protein-rich foods such as meat, fish, eggs and pulses
• It's also important to eat a variety of foods to make sure we get all the nutrients our bodies need.

Top 5 practical tips to stay healthy:

1. Start the day with a good breakfast - Eating breakfast can help curb the cravings for the wrong kinds of food and maintains a steady blood sugar level throughout the morning period.
2. Never skip lunch - Skipping lunch leads to a drop in energy levels, alertness and coping ability. It can also slow metabolism which is self-defeating if you are trying to lose weight.
3. Drink plenty of water - Water re-hydrates the body much better than sugary fizzy drinks. If you are dehydrated you're likely to feel tired and have a headache, which will slow you down.
4. Replace chocolates with fruit or a low-fat yoghurt - This will reduce your day's calorie and fat count significantly and ensure that you are taking in more vitamins and nutrients.
5. Ideally try to eat slowly and stop when you're full.

Timbang 30 Orang Setiap Hari...Itulah Kisah Inspirasi STS Oktober 2014!

Syukur alhamdulillah pada 26 Oktober 2014 (Ahad) yang lalu kami berpeluang menghadiri Kuala Lumpur Success Training Seminar (STS) dalam Bahasa Melayu di Hotel Berjaya Times Square. Secara jujur memang dah lama tak pergi event. The last one being Leadership development Weekend @ PGRM Cheras.

Banyak perkongsian yang diterima dan yang paling menyeronokkan adalah STS kali ini menggunakan format yang baru di mana ianya bermula pada pukul 11:00 pagi dan berakhir pada jam 4:30 petang. Ianya ringkas, informatif dan padat!!!

Kalau nak tengok gambar dan follow boleh pergi FB page STS KL at https://www.facebook.com/KualaLumpurSTS

So di sini just nak share info yang dapat so that boleh jadi rujukan diri sendiri dan orang ramai semoga boleh memberikan manfaat kepada kita semua, InsyaAllah.

Masa tiba, HOM sedang berjalan dan sedang sesi perkongsian income. Kemudian guest speaker untuk hari tersebut dijemput iaitu Sr Exec Pres Team Dr Khadijah Md Jadi berusia 52 tahun dan sudah 10 tahun maan Herbalife products! Dr Khadijah bertanyakan 2 soalan:
1. Can YOU buy health? - No!!!
2. Can YOU buy a car? - YES!!!

Understand that health is an investment. So kita semua mesti buat pelaburan untuk kesihatan kita.

STS bermula dengan tayangan video, Ready Go Now. We love this video! You can check it out at the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRBdQha84v4

1st Segment adalah perkongsian dari Millionaire Team - Mazlina. Dia berkongsi tentang produk khususnya inner and outer nutrition. Dia berkongsi tentang apa yang dipelajari semasa wellness tour baru2x ini. Dua perkara yang paling penting adalah:

1. If you don't take care of your nutrition than you are not taking care of your engine.

2.  Water for your body is like water for a washing machine!

In short, make sure you get good nutrition and drink a lot of plain water!!!

BMI is not a good indicator for your body. Two person can have the same BMI but one is healthy and the other is not healthy. You need to know your body's fat, muscle mass and water. Those are more important readings.

Herbalife promotes ideal weight, ideal shape and ideal skin!!!

As usual, perkongsian tentang semua produk asas herbalife iaitu F1, F2, F3, aloe vera, tea mix, omega 3, calcium plus dan NW.

Tea Mix kita cuma 6 kalori per serving!!!! Almost like plain water!!!

Seterusnya perkongsian tentang outer skin. Perkongsian yang menarik perhatian saya adalah tentang shampoo aqua fresh kita yang tidak mengandungi paraben dan sulphate. Rupanya kalau kita baru mula guna aqua fresh dan kita lihat rambut gugur atau keras sebenarnya rambut kita dalam proses detoks!!! Sangat luarrrrrbiasa!

Segment kedua disampaikan oleh Liyana Saiful. Perkongsiannya amat santai sekali menunjukkan betapa mudahnya untuk kita memperkenalkan Herbalife kepada orang lain. Asasnya tetap sama iaitu Guna Produk, Pakai Jenama Herbalife & Bercakap Dengan Ramai Orang!

Di bahagian Daily Method Operation (DMO) dia telah menjemput 2 orang utk berkongsi. Seorang wanita dan lelaki.

Wanita berkongsi tentang bagaimana menjemput orag ke Fit Club. Apa yang dibuat adalah dia akan jogging di taman berhampiran dengan kawasan perumahan. Setiap kali dia akan tegur orang yg jogging di sana dan tanya kenapa jogging. Kemudian dia akan jemput ke Fit Club dengan memberitahu lebih seronok buat aktiviti beramai-ramai. Matlamatnya adalah utk dapatkan nama dan HP utk hantar jemputan melalui whatsapp. Berdasarkan numbers, setiap 12 org yg dijemput, 2 orang akan datang.

Perkongsian DMO kedua adalah dari seorang lelaki dari Teluk Intan, Perak yang menggunakan DMO Nutrition Club atau NC. Menurutnya setiap 10 orang dia timbang dia akan dapat 6 orang join program. Ayat yang digunakan adalah saya tidak jual produk, saya cuma jual program. Suatu yang berbeza! Perkongsian yang paling best adalah apabila dia diberi amanah untu timbang 30 orang dalam satu hari. Sampai orang ke 29 dia tidak dapat closing seorang pun! Tetapi, alhamdulillah orang ke 30 dia terus closing 1000VP!!!

Apa yang kita boleh belajar adalah, tanggungjawab kita adalah hanya untuk berkongsi, selainnya Allah SWT yang akan lakukan untuk kita. InsyaAllah ada jalannnya.

Segment ketiga adalah tentang Marketing Plan yang diterangkan oleh Ustaz Mus'ab. Ringkas dan padat di mana penekanan diberikan kepada Senior Consultant iaitu 500VP atau 35%. Semua orang boleh capai! paling best recognition on stage siap dapat sijil!!!

Last sekali Dr Khadijah punya sharing. Basically dia punya message you need to choose whether to become a winner or a loser in Herbalife.

InsyaAllah we all want to be come winners in life! Semoga Allah SWT permudahkan untuk kita semua.

JT Foxx - Continuously Reinvent Yourself!

Alhamdulillah, thank you Allah for giving us the opportunity to celebrate Hari Raya Korban with our family this weekend. We had a great time catching up with our family.

Before that we had the opportunity to meet JT Foxx in person at the Sheraton Imperial in KL as he was in town conducting a 2 day work shop. We thought that we should check it out. We could only make it for one day as the next day was AidilAdha.

So, I'm just going to share some of the stuff that I put down. We had a lot of notes from the session which we feel was very informative and exciting. But then that's what you need to be to become successful.

A little bit about JT Foxx, he's 33 this year. Became a millionaire at 24 through properties. Founder of Mega Partners. He is brilliant in leveraging his brand. he has a thing about his ties. He is Canadian and amazingly he used to be a stutter. He has been proclaimed as the next billionaire!!! The other things is that he is tall!

So here are some of the stuff that I got.

Actually I had a whole bunch of notes but seems to be misplaced. Need to work on that.

His session is basically how to improve your business.

Firstly understand that today it is a BENEFIT driven market place. People are looking for the BENEFIT. So you need to ask how can your business BENEFIT your customer.

Than you need to provide WOW service to them. How? This is be making sure that the little things are done.

CEO stands for Chief EXPERIENCE Officer. What kind of EXPERIENCE are you selling?

Your BRAND and REPUTATION is everything. Who are you & why should people care. You need to control your REPUTATION. Control it or die!

Sign up your name dot com to protect your brand and your name. Upload and share great testimonials about yourself.

In business you need to know your numbers. How many do you need to make it work.

Be aware of where the money will come for strategic growth. What are your profit centers.

Are you getting attention? It's better that other people is selling you. What kind of exposure do you have? Are you chasing the business or are they chasing you? YOU need to be going after both the rabbits and elephants!

The key to success is to continuously reinvent yourself! Ask your self 2 questions.

#1 - How can I be the BEST?
#2 - How can we make this BETTER?

Remember that YOU are a marketer first. Everyday is about marketing yourself to the world!
