People Buy Things For Reasons

today i woke up at 8am.
well, my sore throat seems to be not getting much better as i still hope it will "cure" itself if i drank a lot of water everyday.
anyways, i just quickly get myself prepared and went to work.
around 9.10am i arrived KL Sentral and did not buy any breakfast this time.
then i just do my so call "working related" stuff as i still haven settle some "marketing plan" activity.
somehow i did feel that it is not easy think of a "creative idea" as it might looks like copying some other people idea and enhance it with our idea.
during the afternoon, i walked to Brickfields with my superior and just feel the food was quite expensive too at there where i just ordered the "Lu Rou Fan" (gravy pork) that cost about RM9 including one Chinese tea.

we just have a little conversation since i feel there might be some "generation gap" but i do like his sharing.
well, 10 years ago when he was having a Degree in Malaysia, the salary earned can achieve RM2K+ and that time it is consider quite a lot but now seems to be still the same yet the living expenses keep increasing.
therefore he just say don't know how our generation now can survive or want to buy a house at young age.
besides, i do saw a girl that really look alike with the girl i like when i was eating nearby there but sadly it is not after looking quite close.
anyways, i just feel that i need to get "forced" in order to "die out something" whereby my deadline for the marketing strategy planning is at tomorrow afternoon and this make me used a lot of "brain juice" while writing and researching a lot of information.
around 7pm i make a move from office because tonight my "life schedule" was quite rush.

while i was sitting at the train on my way to back Klang, i saw a blind man that "gave me some hope" to be grateful in life whereby even though he was blind, he did not give and worked as a blind massage as i saw his uniform was something like Blind Persons' Association.
around 8.05pm i reach Klang KTM and waited 10 minutes for my father to fetch me.
then i arrived back home at 8.35pm and mother cooked some noodles as my dinner since i did not eat anything after "punch out" the card from the office.
the reason for me to back hometown is to get the £300 pound (RM1500) cheque pay to Sheffield Hallam University and RM200 pay to Tunku Abdul Rahman College and this feeling is like last year as below.
besides, i still need to find my Diploma and Advance Diploma transcript because i couldn't find it at my KL house as the deadline for SHU application was at 22nd or 23rd February 2013 if i am not mistaken.

anyways, i do feel thankful to parents as they help me to pay half of it together with all my "Angpao" (red packet) money during Chinese New Year.
therefore i can say i am officially "broke" now and it is true that my brother said there is no use to tell other's people about how "poor" you are now as it was not their concern.
around 9.40pm we make a move from home and i reached Klang's KTM at 10pm.
somehow i did feel a quite pity when saw an old uncle picking up plastic bottles/cans from one dusbin to another dusbin.
besides, my sister phoned me to chat while when i was waiting the train to arrive at 10.25pm.
well, i just feel that the reason why i feel "poor" easily was because looking at other's people earning in the surface without looking in deeper about the effort they used.

as an example, when i see my sister seems to be earn a lot of $$, but i did not know that she need "support" don't what IT bank's technical stuff from 12am to 4am after working hour at some specific days.
somehow i just spend my time reading those marketing book that i borrowed from Tarc Library and reached KL Sentral at 11.20pm.
then i just took LRT back to Wangsa Maju and arrived there at 11.55pm.
luckily the "taxi" (cab) did not charge me extra when exceeding midnight (12am) but i do have some feeling that the KL Sentral LRT seems to be quite "tricky" because if the LRT arrived at 11.30pm, most of the people will need to take taxi to back home which might cause "double charge" when pass midnight.
finally i arrived back home at 12.10pm.
while reading back my yesterday post, i do feel quite "funny" when there is so much grammar error.

it is because i don't really have much time to check it for second time whether got typo error or any mistake where i just click publish after finish writing most of the time when writing.
at last, i just feel that the world is all about advertising as everyone is promoting something no matter what products it is including myself.
well, we need to understand that people buy things for reason, not because of us.
recently someone said that they were afraid to market things online because a lot of the information that they wants or plan to sell was already available for free that is quite true and how should we look at this problem with a positive attitude?
first of all, NOTHING can sells by itself as it is not because you have it on your shelf or website, it does not mean anyone will buy it.

even if it is free, most of the people will treat it as "free" and totally under value the information which possibly treat it as "worthless" because they get it for free instead of buying.
therefore the success of selling require a lot of reason for people to buy it and one of it was you need to give better to your prospects on every REASON you can think of to buy your product so they can pick the one's that appeal most to them.
next, NOTHING is really "FREE" anyway or too good to be true. (except maybe air, water?)
actually there is a lot of FREE information on the Internet but does it really FREE and i start to feel that it is not consider as free.
for example, you might not notice some of the "information" already been paid through advertising dollars and some cases it will still cost you TIME to search for the information.

remember, TIME is even more valuable than money because you can't make any more when your time ends.
some people like information delivered by words, audio sound waves, newsprint, magazines, books or read it on webpages.
so you must ask yourself that why should people buy your information on the Internet out of all of those million or billion competitor's website out there and the answer seems to be CREATIVITY.
well, the answer seems to be you need to find a way to re-package it by the way your customer wants it delivered in order to make yourself a profit because you can't lock-up a content as it is meant to be shared and, if you can, make a profit from it in more ways than one.
seriously i feel that when i reads more, i realized that i have learned more and can related all things that happened to me last time.

for an example, last time i did accept to write a sponsored review for just only RM20 per post for Propwall as it is like just happened yesterday although it is dated 2009 as shown below.
through this experience, i realized how the website owner use other's people resource to promote themselves as if you know Propwall, iBilik and Car Sifu is all seems to be same owner whereby i just can envy his successful story and i still remain complaining/whine my life after so many years had past.
moreover, i finally received $100 USD from promoting the adult products but deduct tax as shown below.
it is because at first i thought they are cheating/scamming as i did not receive any reply after sending few day continuously to ask about it.

anyways, it is proven that it is real and i just feel happy when know it is real but if think on the negative side, it might not good to promote such product.
however, now i might understand why some blogger say they can earn few thousand extra a might by just spending one hour writing.
for example, if one day i can earn 100$ from writing one post, 30 days = 100$ x 30 = 3000$ which is equal to RM9,000 by just spending some time to write?
somehow it is easy to say than do because it was my first time to receive so much $$ especially when i was "poor" recently.
in conclusion, i hope that any reader's who reading this will not misunderstood that i the reason i blogging was to earn money (although got a little now) but i will try to be myself as i can say 95% of my post is not sponsored and it is all based on my "passion" on writing my life everyday. (since not much people care mah, then hope got a little blogger friend care for me loh)
hopefully tomorrow the Tarc Admin's staff will get ready my transcript as i have requested earlier and i really don't which this will be the obstacle for me to proceed SHU UK as i had delayed a year.
on the other hand, my coughing seems to be getting worst like having "vomit" feelings, maybe it because i am over addicted with blogging as this post was finish writing from 1.40am to 2.45am, yet i still need to wake up at 7am+ tomorrow?
in fact, I am "playing my real life game" in a hard mode compare with those rich people.
