"In life, we come across all kinds of personalities! As humans, we often focus on those who are negative or toxic leaving, it difficult to appreciate those who are positive and healthy. Seeking out individuals with healthy, positive traits, however, may do a lot of good. The more we can surround ourselves with those who are positive and healthy, the more we may model those positive behaviors.

Below, are some of the personality traits we admire most in people. Although we could probably list a dozen characteristics, these seem to be the rarest or most difficult to find "

6 Personality traits to admire and acquire

Selflessness- In a world where many people don’t have the time or the interest in others, selflessness is a quality that seems to be less and less common. People can be selfless in the time they give, the ability to listen, their level of patience and the love that they give. Those who are giving and generous in nature have the power to make others feel loved, appreciated and special. While those who are self-absorbed tend to do the exact opposite.

Tolerance- Those people who are tolerant make us feel comfortable with who we are and special as individuals. All of us are different, and many of us have quirks and idiosyncrasies. After all, these differences make the world go round. Having the ability to accept people for who they are and not expect them to be who we want them to be is important in life, happiness and in the health of our relationships.

Genuineness- Having the ability to be real, authentic and honest is unique in a world where we put so much emphasis on the superficial. Feeling comfortable in one’s skin and being true to one’s self is one of the most beautiful traits one can possess. To have a REAL relationship with someone requires honesty…it requires hearing and giving input or feedback that may not always be popular…it means having the strength to tell it like it is and to not be afraid to face the consequences for doing so…it means loving people for who they really are…deep down…and not for what they appear to be.

Sensitivity- So often we are focused on what is important to ourselves that we can forget about those around us. Those who are sensitive are often thoughtful, appreciative and loving, in a way that makes you feel understood, valued and respected. Often, sensitive people are also self-aware, making them mindful of how they impact others with what they do and say.

Integrity- Call me cynical, but I think this characteristic is especially difficult to find. In a time when people will do things that are underhanded to make an extra buck, expose their personal lives to the public so they can be famous and do what feels good in the moment without necessarily thinking of the consequences, integrity is a characteristic that is especially unique today.

Humility- Whether someone is super-smart, extremely talented or drop-dead gorgeous, there is something extra special about them if they don’t come across as though they know it all the time. Humility in those that possess extraordinary traits make others feel special too.

cara mudah JIMAT DUIT

Antara cara-cara paling mudah dan praktikal untuk JIMAT DUIT
(setelah kajian sendiri selama beberapa hari, maka inilah tips2 yang difikirkan paling praktikal :) - ditujukan untuk diri sendiri juga :p )

1. Beli barang pada harga borong
beli barang secara pukal atau pada harga borong di pasaraya-pasaraya besar ('hypermarket') kerana harga yang lebih rendah serta banyak manfaat atas sebarang pembelian.

2. Beli barangan 'second-hand' atau lelong/jual murah
pada harga yang kurang dari separuh atau jauh lebih murah, tetap mendatangkan pulangan memuaskan / lebih baik.

3. Berbelanja pada musim promosi dan 'mega sale'
ambil kesempatan pada masa ini untuk berbelanja kerana pada waktu lain mungkin harganya dua kali ganda!

4. Kitar semula atau 'recycle'
membolehkan anda dapat wang poket lebih, di samping menjaga persekitaran agar lebih bersih

5. Beriadah di tempat awam
boleh jimatkan duit anda dengan berjogging sendiri di tempat-tempat rekreasi awam, daripada membayar beberapa ratus ringgit sebulan untuk keahlian di gym :p

6. Kurangkan hiburan, banyakkan bacaan
duit tengok wayang atau konsert yang kurang perlu- lebih baik simpan untuk beli bahan bacaan yang bermanfaat seperti majalah ilmiah / novel yang bermotivasi dan berinspirasi

7. Kurangkan makan di 'fast-food restaurant'
selain harga yang lebih mahal, makanan segera sebegini kurang elok untuk kesihatan anda :)

8. Masak dan makan di rumah
cara terbaik untuk jimat duit! :)

9. Rancang perjalanan dan jimat petrol
kurangkan berulang-alik ke sesuatu tempat atau gunakan pengangkutan awam. Selain itu, pastikan kenderaan sentiasa berada dalam keadaan baik bagi mengelak penggunaan petrol lebih banyak.

10. Semak bil utiliti bulanan
kaedah ini amat praktikal. Kumpulkan bil-bil utiliti anda seperti bil elektrik, telefon, internet, air dan apa-apa langganan bulanan. Ini semua untuk semakan dan penilaian semula sama ada ia berbaloi / diperlukan / sebaliknya.

11. Jimat letrik dan air
most logical reason why :)

12. Guna kad kredit dengan bijak
bayar tepat pada masanya dan anda akan memperoleh beberapa manfaat atas sebarang penggunaan.

13. Bayar bil 'online'
jimat duit, tenaga dan masa dengan lebih praktikal.

14. Berhenti merokok!
Obviously, ketagihan ini hanyalah perbuatan yang merugikan duit dan kesihatan. Boleh juga membawa kemudaratan kepada orang lain di sekeliling kita.

Maka, renung-renungkanlah dan selamat praktis! ;)

Kesedaran dan keyakinan yang teguh

"I am a traveler seeking the truth, a human searching for the meaning of humanity and a citizen seeking dignity, freedom, stability and welfare under the shade of Islam. I am a free man who is aware of the purpose of his existence and who proclaims: “Truly, my prayer and my sacrifice, my living and my dying are all for Allah, the Lord of the worlds; no partner has He. This, am I commanded and I am of those who submit to His Will.” This is who I am. Who are you?"

Imam Hassan al-Banna

Nasihat hidup bahagia


Barangsiapa menginginkan teman, cukuplah Allah menjadi temannya.

Barangsiapa menginginkan kekayaan, cukuplah qana’ah menyertainya.

Barangsiapa menginginkan nasihat, cukuplah kematian menasihatinya.

Barangsiapa menginginkan harta simpanan, cukuplah Al-Quran menjadi barang simpanannya.

Barangsiapa yang tidak cukup dengan keempat-empat hal ini, cukuplah neraka baginya.



"Ya Allah... Tunjukkan kepada kami yang benar dan jadikan pilihan kami mengikuti yang benar itu. Dan juga tunjukkan kepada kami yang tidak benar dan permudahkan kami meninggalkannya."

Collectable or collector's item
from the perspective of a publication or printed items

A collector's item is one which is made without the intention of special interest but due to rarity or uniqueness, sometimes - a production fault, human error, or other events, becomes sought after due to its rarity in these circumstances. Occasionally, a series of circumstances will take place that result in an item from a collectable series becoming valuable and sometimes sold for substantial amounts of money.


A collectable is typically a manufactured item designed for people to collect. In this respect, they are distinguishable from other subjects of collections, which may also include a publication or printed items, or items manufactured for purposes other than collecting (e.g., stamps).


Some items designed for other purposes, such as tickets, posters or even entry or backstage passes, become so popular among collectors that they are later marketed specifically to that audience. A special price for certain posters or stickers is a good example of this phenomenon since any event or concerts were originally intended to be organized as a special occasion, rather than focusing on producing or merchandising collectables.
