My Recent Books

This morning, visited the Popular Book Fair 2013 at Kuala Lumpur Convention Center (KLCC). The place was so crowded with thousand over visitors. It shown that Malaysian generally are book lovers and this is a good sign as people wants to improve themselves. To cope in this competitive world, what better to read more books to upgrade ourselves, isn't?.


I bought two books, one is called "I Move Your Cheese" by Deepak Malhotra and another book is "The Carrot Principle" by Andrian Gostick and Chester Elton.

I started reading "I moved Your Cheese", it is a translation version in Mandarin, I should look for the English version, but I guess is too late. 

Just a glance, the book is talking about 3 mice that trapped in a maze that controlled by someone else. Many mice worked so hard looking for their cheese but often, the cheese always been moved. They're living by a set of rules governed by someone. Life isn't that way ? 

Me too is like living in a trapped world controlled by someone else. In life, we are continue looking for cheese, but often enough, we need to submit to the rules which dictated by others, sometime, we get a bigger piece and be happy, but sometime, we get a smaller piece or even nothing. 

life is like a big maze, everyone is subject to certain rules, whether you like it or not, life goes on? 

I am very keen to start reading this book. I believe it will inspire my life. Let start reading ......



The other book that I bought is called "The Carrot Principle". This book is specially written for Manager to learn about managing people. The most challenging task as a Manager in an organization is dealing with people. Yes, people is most complex beings with difference competency and attitudes. How to inspire and lead your people? I am still learning ... somehow clueless ... despite the fact I have many years of experiences as a Manager.

Hai ..

Yes, time to get help.

The Carrot Principle sounds interesting. I believe it will help me to accelerate the people's performance in my organization ... let see ..... but first, I must complete the book.


Do you notice something funny with these two books ?

Life is somehow strange ....

Ironically, the two books are contradictory in nature ... one telling me as a mouse to look for way out from a maze. But another book is telling me how to be a good maze master to keep my mice in order and to performance their works.

Lols ...

hahahaha...

Can't wait to start !!
