Managing Performance: Becik Ketitik, Ala Ketara (Local Wisdom 7) Cerita Motivasi dan Inspirasi Nomor 1

Oleh: Agung Praptapa

Dalam dunia kerja kita sering menemui orang yang nampaknya biasa-biasa saja tetapi miliki karir yang bagus. Dilain pihak, ada orang yang cerdas justru tidak terlampau cemerlang karirnya. Mengenai hal tersebut orang beranggapan bahwa itu semua bergantung pada sebagaimana hebat seseorang “me-market-kan” diri sendiri. Seperti halnya suatu produk, sehabat-hebatnya produk kalau kita tidak dapat memarketkan dengan baik akhirnya produk tersebut tidak laku juga. Sedangkan produk yang biasa-biasa saja tetapi marketingnya bagus dapat laku dipasar. So, it is about marketing! Dengan demikian, apabila kita memiliki produk yang bagus yang disertai dengan marketing yang bagus tentunya produk kita akan laris di pasar. Demikian pulakah bagaimana sesorang berkarir? Kapasitas diri dan marketing menjadi kunci? Dalam konteks bagaimana seseorang “laku” di pasar karir, hal tersebut boleh dikatakan benar.

Namun hal tersebut kemudian menimbulkan beberapa pertanyaan. Yang pertama, kalau benar bahwa prestasi kerja bergantung kepada bagaimana seseorang memarketkan dirinya, maka orang dengan kapasitas dan kinerja yang terbaik tidak ada jaminan akan mendapatkan prestasi kerja terbaik pula.

Superiority Comes from Character, Not Blood

by Harun Yahya Darwin's portraying human beings as a developed species of animal and his presentation of some races as not yet having completed their development, and as species closer to animals was intensely dangerous and destructive in human history. Those who took this claim of Darwin's as their guide mercilessly oppressed other races, forced them to live under the harshest conditions, and even exterminated them. Bryan Appleyard, author of the book Brave New Worlds, explains the tyrannical mentality underlying racism, and the results of it, in this way: The point is that once people decide you are a lesser creature for whatever reason, either superstitious or scientific, there appears to be no limit to what cruelty they may inflict on you. And they are likely to inflict that cruelty feeling fully justified, because it is but a small step from believing another human being is inferior to believing that he is bad, dangerous, or threatening to 'superior' beings.

Aqeedah: its Meaning and Importance

by Dr. Abdul Aziz Al-Qari, Introduction One narration states, "You are going to a people from the People of the Book. Let the first thing that you call them to be the worship of Allah. If they acknowledge Allah, then inform them that Allah has obligated upon them five prayers during their days and nights." [Al-Bukhari, Muslim] This hadith is clear. It does not require much of an explanation. The Prophet (peace be upon him) applied this principle in his practical calling to Islam. He stayed in Makkah for thirteen years to teach the people iman and to educate his Companions on this point and to correct the beliefs of the people.

Abdullah ibn Umar said, "We lived during an instant of time in which one of us would receive faith first before receiving the Quran and when the surahs were r...

Moral Degeneration

by Harun Yahya What we refer to as "moral values" are the concepts introduced by religion that make life beautiful and rewarding. Whenever these values are distorted, we face a really disturbing picture in society. First of all, in an environment where no rules and limits are observed, "lawlessness" prevails. In this system, everyone lays down his own rules and principles, based on highly variable criteria. In the ignorant society the basic principle that is applied is not to go to extremes in social conduct and hence not to incur any reaction from the society. It is wholly acceptable to do anything wrong, as long as it is not publicly disclosed. Ignorant people deliver speeches about virtuous conduct and morals, or severely condemn those who hold a contrary view. However, they themselves violate these values when they are convinced that nobody sees them. This is actually the main basis upon which their philosophy rests. They never think that God surrounds them all ...
