Those who knew Jobs and worked with him closely, they will claim,Jobs known as unapologetic personality, brutal and had a cruel way of leading his employees to the breaking point.

However, if we play the rules too strictly , we are going to be manipulated by the mastermind that adore for power in their life.

Every human being is discourage to obey the rules or perform their own rules too strictly as it will lead the "mastermind" to fool us in order to achieve their needs and power. The people that acttain high position in a community known as the master and at the lower position, called as the puppets. Besides, in this article, the writer also remind us to beware of this people because, they have the power to manipulate others.

                                           

However, every human has their own rights to do and has their own right to act differ from others, it is  can be considered acceptable as long as it is not against the norms and value of the society itself.

Thinking Folly was written by Eckhart Tolle who were the well known writer on that particular time.The excerpt was taken from his best known work entitled "The Power Of Now". For the introduction, this excerpt explaining on the power of thinker and how the idea itself will affect their life. 

In daily life for instance, almost everyone tends to think from the smallest issue to the biggest issue. Thus , it will create an opaque screen of concepts, labels, images, words, judgments and definitions that blocks all true relationship. Sometimes it would be very bad and high risk for yourself ; I've was thinking my friends are not worship of our relationship and only giving depression. The self-evidence that she made from the earlier statement was only block herself from mingle around with them.  This shows that the thought creates illusion of separateness, and totally separates other too.

                          

Then you will "forget" by the self judgement or self evident. meaning that you can no longer feel this oness as self evident reality. In simplest way to describe is, you may think it's true even you don't even know whether it's true or not. Besides, thinking has become a disease . This is because, people don't usually use it, but it controls their mind without unconsciously identified. Based on the article, it was consider as its slave. Because, people being possessed without knowing it "overload imagination''.

According to the great scientist Albert Einstein have reported that "creative breakthroughs came at a time of mental quitetude". It's good since the mind is essentially a survival machine, that will be used in order to receive, analyze, storing and produce the data , however, not all of the ideas are creative. According to Einstein, "plays only a subordinate part in the brief, decisive phase of the creative act itself". meaning that, don't think too much , but not because you don't know how to think. Just know how to stop thinking.

The conclusion is, life is simple if we can make everything simple especially in "thinking" . Thus, the creativeness does not come in a critical or forced minded , but feel more free and no-stress. Insya'Allah there will be a great ideas appear.


                         

Eventhough there are some arguments in this article which is "if such friends make us unhappy, why do we keep them?" However, In a 2009 study Holt-Lunstad and graduate student Briahna Bugelow Bushman have concluded that "you may not give up on your frenemies if you know how to manage it and start with controlling your own behavior and being the kind of friend you'd want others to be."

The conclusion is, try to be the best for everyone is the sweetest thing to do because an evergreen memory is the sweetest memory to recall when we are getting older. The simplest way to describe is to do the good thing is the result  for the future .

FACEBOOK or FACE THE BOOK? which one does a person preferred the most? Facebook is one of the largest social networking with huge numbers of followers. Besides, the tagline of the Facebook itself  "connecting the people," showing that the advantages of signing up a Facebook. In fact, lots of people from a different country agreed that by having Facebook they can connect easily with their friends, family and even with their long distance relatives. However, a technology reporter from New York Times "Jenna Wortham" has stated that "Joining Facebook isn't cool. You know what's cool? Quitting facebook ".

Based on her article , facebook is the unnecessary thing to have because , it can give harmful towards your privacy life. According to Amanda Lenhart, the teenagers, children and families researcher . She has stated that  the facebook tend to have a general sense of trust in others and also in institutions. For instance, people are typically update their status, such as "currently Im at Kemaman Kopitiam" and who knows maybe this will be your last facebook's update. In simplest words, if you were kept posting the location that where you will be around, there is a huge possibility of a person like "Jack the Ripper'' will look for you, and it will give harmful to yourself. 

Besides that,  people also tend to have a bad relationship with others . This is because, they will keep online during their free time . For instance,  they will isolate themselves indirectly without they notice it. This could be happened when they are too much spending their time on this social network, and there will be a huge gap between themselves and the societies around them. Besides that, in this article there is a view from Asleigh Elser which has said "I wasn't calling my friends anymore, I was just seeing their pictures and updates and felt like that was really connecting on them" These words are showing that she felt they are connecting between each other , thus wasn't it looks like a fake connection?  Yes it does . 

So, the conclusion is with or without facebook it is not a big deal, because in my opinion,  it will bring lots of advantages to the wise users and disadvantages to the poor users. 

Adolf Hitler was the greatest dictator on earth. He was a leader of the Nazi Party. I find out that a book written by him "Mein Kampf" or "My Struggle" is a book that had all details on his plans.Hitler had explained to the German people, that the Jews was holding their money and wanted to kill the Jews as long as they are willing to follow him. That's the only way to get back their money. In my opinion, he was planning to take over the German, by eliminating the Jews and using German people to establish his leadership and removing the Jews from the society. Besides that, after the world war 1 , Hitler plays his role as a leader by trying to speak out to the Germany while the country still in despair and at the same time, he's trying to rebuild the society itself. He put the blame on the Jews, for examples, the Jews are the cause of the lower Germany economic sector. He's trying to convince the people to fight for their right as the Nazi party aimed for.

Based on this quote, "by fighting off the Jews, I am doing the Lord's work" it's clearly shown that he puts the hatred on the Jews, however some people said that even he had killed the Jews and people were taught to see him as an evil, but apart from that he also had  a virtue . How and why? is it because he just left some of the Jews that not to be killed?? as for me , he just left the''Zionist''and the conclusion, it's been called as "world conspiracy " . 

Critical literacy : I found out this subject is quite interesting, especially when our beloved  lecturer , Madam Zalinda teaches us by using her own method (videos, images, powerpoint etc) so that we are able to pay attention during the lesson and  makes this subject more interesting . Besides, the best part of this subject is, when we are able to know which and what type of brain that we often use. Whether right brain side? or even left brain side? Well, to simplify it people who are in a right brain side more towards holistic thought, creative, intuition, good in music and art too. Not to forget , a person in a left brain side are more to logical thinking, analytic thought,and also doing well in mathematics and science too.This is my opinions, right brain side and left brain side have their own advantages and benefits . As for me, right brain side they are more creative , and they like to use their imagination towards something and since, they are too holistic sometimes they will predict what will happen next in order to see as a whole and aware of something I guess. Besides, left brain side are usually using  an evidence in making decisions and they are more to calculation or calculating. They also love to argue on something until they satisfied with the answers. Lastly, whatever it is just be yourself and feel free to do anything as long as it consider as the right things to do .
