No matter what..! Never forget..! Never give up..!!! Life is Just a Race to Succeed..!!

“Greatness is not in where we stand but in what direction we are moving. We must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it—but sail we must and not drift, nor lie at anchor.”
― Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On!' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”
― Calvin Coolidge
----------------------------------------------------
Apa pun yang terjadi... Jangan pernah lupa... Jangan pernah menyerah...

“Kehebatan bukanlah terletak pada di mana kita berdiri, tetapi ke arah mana kita bergerak. Kita harus berlayar kadang-kadang searah angin dan kadang-kadang melawan angin—tetapi kita harus berlayar dan tidak hanyut, atau berlabuh.”
― Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

“Tidak ada di dunia ini yang dapat menggantikan ketekunan. Bakat tidak akan mampu; tidak ada yang lebih umum daripada orang-orang yang tidak sukses meskipun berbakat. Kejeniusan tidak akan mampu; kejeniusan yang tidak dihargai hampir menjadi pepatah. Pendidikan tidak akan mampu; dunia penuh dengan orang-orang terdidik yang gagal. Hanya ketekunan dan tekad yang mahakuasa. Slogan 'Terus Maju!' telah dan akan selalu menyelesaikan masalah umat manusia.”
― Calvin Coolidge

THE NORWAY EFFECT:

On Christmas Eve in 1969, Norway discovered one of the largest offshore oil fields ever found. A small nation of fishermen and farmers was suddenly staring at extraordinary wealth. What happened next looked almost boring.

Norway did not splurge. It did not hand out easy money. It did not let oil wealth flood the political system. Instead, it did something rare in history: it resisted.

It had seen what happened elsewhere when resource wealth arrived without discipline: corruption, inflation, inequality, and the slow decay economists call the resource curse. So Norway built a wall between resource wealth and political temptation.

In 1990, it created the Government Petroleum Fund. The idea was simple: profits would be invested globally, the government would spend only a small share, and the rest would be preserved. Then came the hardest part: keeping the rule.

Election after election, crisis after crisis, Norway held to one principle: this wealth also belongs to citizens not yet born.

The fund bought broad stakes in the global economy and waited. That patience changed everything.

Today, the fund is worth ~$2 trn. For a country of ~5.6 million people, that is extraordinary. More striking still, much of that wealth did not come from oil itself, but from long-term investments.

Norway turned a finite resource into enduring national strength.
It now owns ~1.5% of listed companies globally. In other words, a share of global prosperity flows back to future generations of Norwegians.

The Norway Effect: the power of saying no to short-term gain in order to secure long-term stability, dignity, and resilience. Norway’s great insight was not geological. It was moral. It understood that real leadership is not extracting the most. It is preserving enough, investing wisely, and building systems strong enough to protect people long after the resource is gone.

So here is the bigger question:
• What would the global economic, social, and environmental outlook be if all nations embraced The Norway Effect?
• What if countries took from the ground what was truly needed for their own essential needs, and where possible to support less resource-rich neighbours, while directing the gains into stronger futures?
• What if fossil fuel wealth were used not as a machine for endless extraction, but as a bridge to a more sustainable civilisation?
• What if resource wealth funded cleaner energy, healthier communities, better education, stronger infrastructure, and restored ecosystems?

The climate crisis is not only a scientific challenge. It is a test of wisdom.

The question is not whether humanity has enough intelligence, technology, or capital. It is whether we have the courage to choose restraint over immediacy, stewardship over greed, and future generations over short-term applause.

The greatest legacy any generation leaves is not what it consumed.
It is what it preserved, what it built, and what it made possible for those who come next.

When will the world wake up to electing/ejecting leaders who have no genuine interest in anything other than their own interests and control on power to protect them from their criminality. How many innocent lives must be sacrificed and tax dollars spent before these maniacs are impeached, indicted, convicted and cast into a cell for the rest of their lives. Even a common burgler is locked up within weeks. These leaders are committing murder and robbing nations of billions in plain sight, yet seem to be impervious to accountability. The system is not broken. There's simply a lack of courage to do the right thing by those who can and cut these monsters down once and for all.
------------------

Kapan dunia akan tersadar dan mulai memilih/mengusir para pemimpin yang tidak memiliki kepentingan sejati selain kepentingan pribadi dan kendali kekuasaan untuk melindungi mereka dari kejahatan? Berapa banyak nyawa tak berdosa yang harus dikorbankan dan uang pajak yang harus dihabiskan sebelum para maniak ini dimakzulkan, didakwa, dihukum, dan dijebloskan ke dalam sel seumur hidup mereka? Bahkan seorang pencuri biasa pun dipenjara dalam beberapa minggu. Para pemimpin ini melakukan pembunuhan dan merampok miliaran dolar negara di depan mata publik, namun tampaknya kebal terhadap pertanggungjawaban. Sistemnya tidak rusak. Hanya ada kurangnya keberanian untuk melakukan hal yang benar bagi mereka yang mampu dan menyingkirkan monster-monster ini sekali dan untuk selamanya.

Many people in the West have been conditioned to see Muslim prayer through a lens of fear, suspicion, or political propaganda. A Muslim praying five times a day is too often portrayed by media and political rhetoric as something radical, threatening, or extreme. That portrayal is deeply unfair.

I am not Muslim. I am Buddhist. But I have spent many years reading and learning about different religions, and what I see in Islamic prayer is not hatred. I see discipline, devotion, humility, surrender to God, and a repeated call toward peace, compassion, and moral responsibility.

Far too often, even common Islamic expressions are twisted and weaponised by people who want to create division. Words and practices that are sacred to over a billion people are too often presented as symbols of danger, when in reality they are part of a faith tradition centered on reverence, community, mercy, and accountability.

We should stop allowing ignorance, fear, and political agendas to define how we see Muslims. We should judge people by their character, their actions, and their humanity, not by distorted stereotypes repeated so often that people mistake them for truth.

The more I learn about the world’s religions, the more convinced I become that ordinary people of faith, including Muslims, are not the enemy. The real enemy is deliberate ignorance, dehumanisation, and the constant manufacturing of fear.
___________________________

Banyak orang di Barat telah dikondisikan untuk melihat salat Muslim melalui lensa ketakutan, kecurigaan, atau propaganda politik. Seorang Muslim yang salat lima kali sehari terlalu sering digambarkan oleh media dan retorika politik sebagai sesuatu yang radikal, mengancam, atau ekstrem. Gambaran itu sangat tidak adil.

Saya bukan Muslim. Saya seorang Buddha. Tetapi saya telah menghabiskan bertahun-tahun membaca dan mempelajari berbagai agama, dan apa yang saya lihat dalam salat Islam bukanlah kebencian. Saya melihat disiplin, pengabdian, kerendahan hati, penyerahan diri kepada Tuhan, dan seruan berulang menuju perdamaian, kasih sayang, dan tanggung jawab moral.

Terlalu sering, bahkan ungkapan Islam yang umum pun diputarbalikkan dan dijadikan senjata oleh orang-orang yang ingin menciptakan perpecahan. Kata-kata dan praktik yang sakral bagi lebih dari satu miliar orang terlalu sering disajikan sebagai simbol bahaya, padahal sebenarnya itu adalah bagian dari tradisi iman yang berpusat pada penghormatan, komunitas, rahmat, dan pertanggungjawaban.

Kita harus berhenti membiarkan ketidaktahuan, ketakutan, dan agenda politik menentukan bagaimana kita memandang Muslim. Kita harus menilai orang berdasarkan karakter, tindakan, dan kemanusiaan mereka, bukan berdasarkan stereotip yang menyimpang yang diulang begitu sering sehingga orang salah mengira stereotip tersebut sebagai kebenaran.

Semakin banyak saya belajar tentang agama-agama di dunia, semakin yakin saya bahwa orang-orang beriman biasa, termasuk Muslim, bukanlah musuh. Musuh sebenarnya adalah ketidaktahuan yang disengaja, dehumanisasi, dan terus-menerus menciptakan rasa takut.
