How To Negotiate
Here's what you need in order to negotiate properly:
1. Buddhism.
Leave any desire out the door. This means no expectations, no dreams, no goals. Let it all go. The opposing party would want to exploit any and all desires you have.
I realised that money is not everything and I mean that in the most non-cynical way. In fact, the greed or desire for money will make you lose money. Only when you allow money to come to you would you be able to make any significant financial progress.
2. Realise that you are not a slave and can walk away at any time
"You don't have to be nowhere forever" - Delirium, The Sandman Comics.
If things don't happen, or happen, the world will not stop spinning, and I mean that in the way galaxies spin or maybe the universe spins. I don't know that shit.
3. Finding true happiness is finding true wealth
If money or sex is no issue, and we have an over-abundance of food, then what is true wealth?
True wealth is time and happiness. The time to allow yourself to be happy. Happiness doesn't come from others or from things or from circumstances. Happiness is an absence of desire.
Let go of everything and be the wealthiest man alive. Or dead. Nobody cares.

Kesedihan Pertama 2016
Isu-isu luar bandar lebih 'humble' dan realistik daripada idealisme melancap yang laku di bandar-bandar.
Persoalan orang luar bandar, sejak dahulu lagi - bolehkah mereka makan hari ini? Kalau ada ahli politik datang, apa yang mereka dapat?
Bukan semua orang kampung bodoh, sepertimana tak semua orang bandar pandai atau stylish. Ramai je orang bandar bodoh lepas tu pakai mekap untuk pergi parti mabuk tengah malam buta pada waktu tengahari terik, pastu cair macam pondan menangis sebab kalah Ratu Jambo.
Orang luar bandar juga tahu pasal delayed gratification - bersabar untuk kepentingan masa depan.
Dalam erti kata lain, korang semua bodoh dan aku sorang pandai. Hidup aku! Hidup aku! Hidup aku!
