Last week, I was a part of a war game for a launch of one of our product in China and one of the risk that was identified as BBS, blogs.
We all aggreed that negetive opinions in blog could spiral into something big and hence damaging. The logic being people dont say good things about anything in their blogs but use it to talk about something they didnt like.
It got me thinking as to why do we talk sponteneously about bad things as a natural tendency? Even I have done it before to crib about the bad service provided by Fed Ex and KLM in Manchester.
I guess when we a good experience, we feel great about it and feel thankful; and joyous about it in a personal way. Our own good experience is a unique experience and we rationalise in out mind that I as a person had something for that good experience to have.
However, when we have a bad experience, we feel powerless against a big company and evenif we wish to sue it, we know we cannt. Hence, we use our blogs to creat bad advertisement for that particular company as a means to damage it and have some revenge.
Hence, I have now decided to talk about good experiences conciously henceforth.
This was not the only decision I took sitting in my warm room in cold Shanghai.
May be because Im a cancerian, may be because I grew up on chairty of my uncle and aunt, I have this abiding fear and insecurity about future which makes me want to save every penny I earn. God has been very kind to me and I believe I have managed to save some decent amout but everyday I revise the saving target upward. It creat distrurbance in out family and I have decided to pray everyday and dont interfare with Prinx on her shopping anymore. Rather, I will pray for properity to flow in our life in abundance and I believe this will happen soon. Prayers are always answered. God is great!
Its 11.40 pm now, this posting is from Chaingi airport. Im on my way to Durban on an offician trip. Before coming, I told Sheena that Durban is rumoured to be unsafe. After five minutes, he came and told me that we would buy the car in Manila and I dont have to go out to buy it and I should stay in the hotel. Such a nice boy he is, our dear Shenna. God, please bless him in abundance for good health, education, a great comfortable life and anything that he desires.
