Arnold’s 6 Rules to Success

1. Trust yourself

Many young people are getting so much advice from their parents and from their teachers and from everyone. But what is most important is that you have to dig deep down, dig deep down and ask yourselves, who do you want to be?  Not what, but who. Figure out for yourselves what makes you happy, no matter how crazy it may sound to other people.

2. Break the Rules

Break the rules, not the law, but break the rules. It is impossible to be a maverick or a true original if you’re too well behaved and don’t want to break the rules. You have to think outside the box. That’s what I believe. After all, what is the point of being on this earth if all you want to do is be liked by everyone and avoid trouble?

3. Don’t Be Afraid to Fail

Anything I’ve ever attempted, I was always willing to fail. So you can’t always win, but don’t afraid of making decisions. You can’t be paralyzed by fear of failure or you will never push yourself. You keep pushing because you believe in yourself and in your vision and you know that it is the right thing to do, and success will come. So don’t be afraid to fail.

4. Don’t Listen to the Naysayers

How many times have you heard that you can’t do this and you can’t do that and it’s never been done before? I love it when someone says that no one has ever done this before, because then when I do it that means that I’m the first one that has done it. So pay no attention to the people that say it can’t be done. I never listen to, “You can’t.”  I always listen to myself and say, “Yes, you can.”

5. Work Your Butt Off

You never want to fail because you didn’t work hard enough. Mohammed Ali, one of my great heroes, had a great line in the ’70s when he was asked, “How many sit-ups do you do?” He said, “I don’t count my sit-ups. I only start counting when it starts hurting. When I feel pain, that’s when I start counting, because that’s when it really counts.” That’s what makes you a champion. No pain, no gain.
But when you’re out there partying, horsing around, someone out there at the same time is working hard. Someone is getting smarter and someone is winning. Just remember that. Now, if you want to coast through life, don’t pay attention to any of those rules. But if you want to win, there is absolutely no way around hard, hard work. Just remember, you can’t climb the ladder of success with your hands in your pockets.

6. Give Back

Whatever path that you take in your lives, you must always find time to give something back, something back to your community, give something back to your state or to your country.

Remember these 6 rules. Trust yourself, break some rules, don’t be afraid to fail, ingore the naysayers, work like hell, and give something back.

Spotify, Cara Asik Streaming Musik

Spotify, Cara Asik Streaming Musik

Awalnya dulu sih pengen cari radio internet yang lagu-lagunya bagus, soalnya bosen juga dengerin koleksi lagu di harddisk, en akhirnya malah ketemu satu program music yang lumayan keren. Spotify!

Berikut ini deskripsi Spotify dari Wikipedia

Spotify is a commercial music streaming service providing digital rights management-restricted content from record labels including Sony, EMI,Warner Music Group and Universal. Launched in October 2008 by Swedish startup Spotify AB, the service had approximately 10 million users as of 15 September 2010 about 2.5 million of whom were paying users. Total users reached 20 million by December 2012, 5 million of whom pay a monthly subscription fee that varies based on locale.

Music can be browsed by artist, album, genre, playlist, or record label, as well as by direct searches. On computers, a link allows the listener to purchase selected material via partner retailers

As of December 2013, free Spotify music streaming is now available on all mobile devices and on desktop computers for unlimited durations. Features like offline listening and ad-free playback are only available for Premium subscribers of the service

Emang apa asiknya pake Spotify ini?

1.       Sound quality tiap lagu terjaga – pernah dong dengerin mp3 yang kualitas nya gak begitu bagus, disini hal itu jarang banget kejadian karena rata-rata kualitas lagunya bener-bener bagus, dan meskipun gak bisa diatur equalizer dari playernya (ato saya yang emang belum tau caranya :D) tapi  built-in playernya bisa produce suara yang lumayan kok

2.       Listen to the most updated music, kadang kita yang suka dengerin lagu (terutama western) gak tau lagu apa yang paling asik buat didengerin dan lagi trending (terutama lagu-lagu baru). Disini ada fitur top list tiap negara yang bisa jadi patokan, ato kalo mau dengerin berdasarkan mood kita juga bisa…karena emang ada fitur playlist buat itu…

3.       Lagunya banyak banget! Karena emang ini worldwide service jadi cakupan lagunya juga luas banget, bahkan ada lagu-lagu Indonesia meskipun gak terlalu banyak. O ya…disini juga bisa kita gabungin lagu yang kita punya di harddisk (local files) dengan lagu-lagu yang ada di database spotify.

4.       Masih banyak lagi :D

What You Need to Consider…

1.       Karena ini music streaming, brati ya harus konek internet (meskipun ada fitur offlinenya) ya hati-hati aja yang internetnya masih pake sistem kuota, emang gak banyak sih data yang kedonlot…tapi kalo dengerinnya nontstop ya sama aja (perhattin juga yang inetnya agak lemot…mungkin bisa dihindari biar gak jengkel waktu dengerin lagu n malah putus2)

2.       Kalo pake yang non premium service (kaya saya J ) kadang aka nada iklan di jeda pergantian lagu…kalo yang pake premium pasti beda

Jadi ya udah…gitu aja….silahkan coba spotify kalo tertarik…dan kalo bisa add saya ya J
