Taken from Robert Kiyosaki’s book, a lot of people can come out with a better hamburger(product) than McDonald’s but can he sell millions like McD. I doubt it.

Having a product without a system can be fairly compared with having to-do list but not doing it. Like having a dream but not striving towards it.

Right now, my small business can be described as a system because instead of selling product, I’m offering service, which is a system itself. However, almost all of the work is done by myself. According to Kiyosaki’s book, I’m still in left quadrant which comprises of employee or self-employed (I should have made a post to explain this in greater detail). To be in right quadrant, I must get out of the system by delegating the work to others. This might results of lower income for myself, but I will have more time focusing on other stuff, like how to expand my system.

I’m now on my mission to ‘hire’ some of my friends who might be interested in this. Actually working with people that are close with you is not really a good thing. I remember a proverb at my own site that read something like this: dinner with family, business with strangers. This is a very true advice as when you have family/friends as your workers, you will be having other conflicts beside business matters. It’s not actually bad thing to have them around but just be prepare for problems that it might create. This journal might describe the problem a bit more.

Summary of my journey today:

• Own your system, don’t be inside it so you can focus to expand it
• Family/friends might have more issues than business-related

Almost every xbox360 owners seem to talk about it and now it has surpassed 1 million sales, crowned itself as the fastest selling title for xbox360 games. To be honest, I never like violent, full of gore games (on Live I just label my GamerZone as recreational). So I thought, how would you consider violent as recreational? I even felt disgusted reading reviews from a games magazine which depicts Gears of War in great detail.

Motivated to experience the ‘killer game’ for xbox360, I picked it up one day and play it for the whole day which I rarely do. One word for it, AWESOME! The gameplay is revolutionary, graphic is the best, voice-acting is absolutely worth to hear and blood is something lovely in this game. I played the game split screen with my roommate. I thought it would be half-fun but it seemed to be the opposite. So we finished the game in 2 days, despite of classes and assignments. The way Marcus quickly move in his bulky armor and with big gun and how he shoots the enemies without even looking are uber cool. I also like how this game ingeniously combined both 1st and 3rd person shooter.

I want to describe the game in greater detail but I’m sure you could find better reviews with more vocabs on the net.

It’s 12.45pm right now and I’m not even thinking to go to 1pm physics class today. I want to start my holiday early. It’s the holiday for turkey, said my Circuit lecturer.

I need a plan for this 5-day holiday. How bout playing xbox 24/7? maybe not. I have this kind of weird symptom. I love games very much but playing for more than a couple of hours make my head dizzy, no matter how much I like the games.

For Naruto Fan, I have something for you. I found a nice picture of Naruto and Hinata from Deviantart. It was in white background so I edited it to black and applied some dreamy blurry edges to Naruto and Hinata. Voila! It becomes one of my favorite wallpaper. I hope you will like it, or love it or gotta have it. (Cold Stone Ice cream sizes)
