Calm your thoughts and be peaceful. Know that all is well, all the time.
This moment is already the best it can be, and is everything it can be. Accept it and move forward.
Do not fear the worst, for your thoughts of fear give great power to whatever it is you fear. Instead, sincerely expect the best and you create the best.
Know that the positive possibilities are always present, and your eyes will be opened to them. Everything that is, can be put to good use in moving toward your highest vision for life.
As life unfolds in each moment, new opportunities are being born. No matter what has already happened, choose to create the very best you can imagine.
This is the day that you have to work with. Live with peaceful purpose, and use it to create a magnificent world.

Don't waste a lot of time making judgments about what you have. Instead, put it to use.
Stop complaining that it's not enough or that it's not fair. Just get busy and make the most of it.
Fighting against what already is, will only slow you down. Instead, make good and productive use of what is, whatever it may be, and you'll find many ways to move forward.
If you wait until things are perfect before taking action, that day will never come. Use what you have, as flawed and imperfect as it may seem, and you'll soon be making massive improvements to it all.
Don't worry about comparing what you have to what others may or may not have. Just concern yourself with doing the best you can do.
Start from where you are, with what you have, and persistently do what you know you must do. There is no limit to where you can go.
-- Ralph Marston
Jawaban pertanyaan diatas ada 2...
yang pertama : pilih Facebook + Twitter karena lebih mudah aksesnya... Ini semua karena pakai iPhone... Di iPhone saya sudah ada native apps facebook dan twitter (twiterrific)...
Update status dan photo langsung dari iPhone membuat lebih sering akses FB + Twitter... Dan bagaimana dengan Plurk ? wah kayaknya yang satu ini gak ke pegang tuh...
yang kedua : pilih nge-Blog... ya karena memang dari dulu sudah jadi blogger jadi yang kudu nulis... sambil menunggu ada orang yang buat native apps MovableType / TextPattern untuk iPhone...
Kedepannya mungkin saya akan memikirkan untuk menjalankan micro-blog saja... atau mengunakan satu aplikasi untuk memposting ke beberapa tempat...
Ok deh, sampai nanti...

When you don't feel like doing what you know you must, that's the best time to go ahead and do it anyway. That's when you can break through your old habit patterns to a new level of focus, performance and achievement.
That first step will require you to go against your natural tendency to put it off until later and to stay comfortably where you are. So how do you get beyond that?
Use your power of visualization to do two things. First, use your thoughts to make it even more uncomfortable, even more painful for you not to take action.
Next, visualize in great detail all the positive and desirable rewards you'll create by going ahead and getting it done. In your mind, make it so compelling to take action that you cannot avoid doing so.
Many times in the past, you've successfully avoided action by telling yourself why you can't or why you won't. Now, choose to use that same power to tell yourself why you can and why you will.
You control the awesome power of your thoughts. And with your thoughts you can successfully visualize yourself into action every time.

Stop waiting for the task to get easier. Waiting will only make it more difficult.
Go ahead and get it done. Then you can move on to something even better.
The effort may indeed be difficult and painful. So it's best to have that effort behind you rather than in front of you.
Imagine how great it will feel to have it done. Imagine being free of that little voice in the back of your mind that keeps nagging you about it.
You cannot avoid the pain of effort. You can either prolong that pain by procrastinating, or you can get it done and get it over with.
Start right now to get it done, and soon you'll have it finished. Get it done, and delight in the glorious feeling of freedom and accomplishment.

Be truly decisive by acting on your decisions. Decide what you will do and then get started on it right away.
The sooner you take action the more you'll accomplish. Once you decide to do it, begin immediately.
Commitment is more than just a mental exercise. It's not a commitment until you back it up with action.
Once you have invested some effort, the goal is no longer a vague, far-away concept. You have begun to make it real.
When you start by immediately taking action, you're naturally going to continue taking action. Put momentum on your side right away, and you immediately have a powerful ally.
Make your decisions real and present in your life, and give them the energy they deserve. Act on them right away, and truly make them happen.
-- Ralph Marston

Don't just generalize about what you wish to achieve. Don't just have a vague idea about where you would like to go.
Tell yourself exactly what you expect of yourself. Make your goals vivid, clear and precise.
Whether you are traveling around the block or across the ocean, your destination is always a single, specific point. The only way you can reach that point is by clearly and unambiguously defining where it is.
The same is true for every destination you seek to reach, whether it is a place, a person, an object or a set of conditions. When the goal is clear and specific, filled in your mind with all the color, the texture, the sounds and the feelings, you'll surely be able to work your way there.
Success is largely a matter of deciding upon every little detail of what you wish to achieve. For each detail you envision provides you with an additional pathway to your goal.
Know what you seek, and know it with richness and precision. For that's exactly what you'll achieve.
-- Ralph Marston

What is the path to true happiness? How far must you go to find happiness?
You need not go very far at all. For happiness is always inside you, ready whenever you are.
No object, no person, no circumstance will make you happy. You are always happy when you decide to be.
The good things in life do not cause happiness. It is precisely the other way around.
Allow happiness to flow out from you, and the good things in life will surround you and fill your world. Choose to be happy, with no conditions imposed upon that happiness, and you'll create the ideal conditions for your life.
Happiness is a beautiful gift you can give yourself no matter what. Give it freely and it will change your world.
-- Ralph Marston

Give your goal a feature that will vastly improve its chances of being fulfilled. Give your goal a deadline.
A deadline provides a firm boundary for your efforts, yet it does not limit or constrain those efforts. On the contrary, a deadline will focus your efforts toward a single point, giving them more power and practical effectiveness.
Without a deadline you can exhaust yourself and still not arrive at any meaningful accomplishment. A deadline compels you to prioritize and to expend your best efforts in the most meaningful direction.
With a deadline, you are constantly reminded of how valuable and precious your time is. You're able to see resources and opportunities that would otherwise remain hidden.
A deadline encourages you to do the best you can with what you have. And that's a skill that reliably leads to great accomplishment again and again.
Give yourself a deadline. And get the job done sooner rather than never.
-- Ralph Marston

You have time. It is now.
Think of something that is truly a priority for you. And know, without a doubt, that you can find the time to get it done.
Of course you're busy, and your time is valuable. That's why it is so important to make sure you use your time to achieve the outcomes you desire.
Simply being busy won't really get you anywhere. Being effective, in a way that's meaningful, is what will take you places.
Achievement takes time and you have the time. As each moment passes, grab the immense value that's in it by using it to move your world forward.
There is plenty of time in this day to take action. Choose right now to stop making excuses and to start making progress.
-- Ralph Marston

What can you do when there seems to be no hope? You can keep going.
What's the best option when you feel like giving up? The best option is to keep going.
How can you respond when circumstances are acting against you? The most effective response is to continue working your way forward no matter what other factors may be present.
All that you know is based on past experience, and yet the future does not equal the past. For right now you can take action to determine that future and to change the way things will be.
Though it can be easy to give up, remember this. When you're at the point of giving up, you're also at the point where maximum value can be created.
If you feel like giving up, then you have nothing to lose and everything to gain by continuing to push forward. Keep going, for the reward is closer with every step you take.
-- Ralph Marston

At the heart of all value in your life is the purpose of your life. No person, no group, no situation, no series of events can take that purpose away from you.
Everything to which you assign value, has that value because it expresses or resonates with your purpose in some way. The value that lives at the core of all value in your life, grows ever stronger no matter what.
If it feels like something valuable has been lost from your life, that is only because you have become too focused on outside events and conditions. Calmly and confidently let go of what does not really matter, and reconnect with your authentic living purpose.
The momentary expressions can indeed be wonderful and beautiful. Yet they will always come and go, clearing the way for your true purpose to be more richly fulfilled.
Without purpose, you could have all the material riches of the world and they would mean nothing. With purpose, you can create value, meaning and sweet fulfillment out of even the most challenging circumstances.
When you are driven by true purpose, anything is always possible. Whatever may be happening on the outside, let the value from inside lift your world ever higher.

No matter how much joy you've known, there is always more joy to be experienced. Each moment brings new possibilities for adding richness to life.
The best days of your life are never behind you, unless you choose to see them as such. For no matter how life has been, there will always be opportunities to experience more goodness.
Everything you know about has already happened, so it can be very easy to view life as nothing more than what is receding into the past. Yet life is infinitely more, because life is now.
By all means, hold firmly to the goodness you've already known and carry it forever in your heart. At the same time, open yourself fully to the positive possibilities that are yours right now.
Now is the moment to live. Now is the time for all that can be.
The sun is just now rising on the bright golden possibilities of this day. Life's great and beautiful promise is now.

Padahal nge-blog itu enak banget... saya malah sering mem-posting kan tulisan si Ralp... Inspirational... Banyak orang yang datang ke website aku, lebih banyak melihat portfolio saja... memang sih vikingkarwur.com posisinya di Online Showcase dari seorang Freelance Web Designer aja... Nah, rencana ke depannya Blog aku ini mo dibuat 2 dan dipisahkan domainnya...
Look back on your life up to this point and you'll quickly see that many of your worries and concerns were completely unfounded. So why do you still insist on cranking out those worries at every turn of events?
How many times have you looked back on an occasion with the regret that you didn't simply enjoy yourself? There's nothing you can do about those past regrets, but there's plenty you can do about right now.
It's ridiculously easy to enjoy life, no matter what the situation. It's just a matter of letting go.
Let go of the worry and anxiety, of the anger and envy, of the need to be right and the need to control everyone else. Let go of the need to have everything your way.
Underneath all those layers of need and worry and negativity, there is pure joy. When you simply accept what is, and choose to enjoy the goodness in it, life can be wonderfully rich and beautiful.
Stop worrying and fighting so much, and start enjoying a little more. Give joy some breathing room and it will flourish in your life.

You are a natural-born achiever. That's why focused effort feels so good and so right.
Trees grow toward the sky because that's what trees are meant to do. Storm clouds drop rain across the land because that's what clouds do.
You create new value and solve problems because that is what you are born to do. You make valuable use of opportunities to achieve because achievement is part of who you are.
Whatever else you may possess, you also have a diverse and powerful set of tools for achievement. You can observe, interpret, adjust, respond, prioritize, and imagine.
You can learn valuable lessons in one situation and put them to effective use in another, completely different arena. You can build and teach and cooperate and integrate the best of what has been into a vision of what can be.
In short, you are destined to achieve. Get your excuses, fears and doubts out of the way and allow that destiny to fully unfold.

Even the smallest accomplishment has great value. Because it sets in motion a positive momentum.
Once you begin to create value, you easily and naturally move toward creating even more value. The best thing about success is that it provides greater opportunity for even more success.
Go ahead and start small, and if you're unable to start small, then start tiny. The point is, do whatever you can with whatever you have, and that will be plenty to get you moving in a positive, productive direction.
There is always something you can do. There is always some small step forward that you can make right now.
Your ability to accomplish does not get used up. In fact, the more you use it, the more powerful it grows.
Create a little bit of success, and experience how great it feels. From that positive, empowered place, there's no limit to where you can go.
