Different between Ron95 and Ron97
RON means “Research Octane Number” and it refers to the ability of gasoline to auto burn inside the engine. Simply say, RON97 is harder to burn compared to RON95.

Higher octane number oil is basically designed for high performance vehicles such as sport vehicle and racing vehicle. Why is that so? This is to avoid premature ignition of oil inside the engine because of auto ignition, which happens before the spark plug ignite the fuel. This phenomenon is known as knocking. Knocking is unwanted, because it will reduce engine performance.

Not all vehicles require high octane number petrol. You may check your vehicle fuel requirement (usually at vehicle guide book) or you may get information at the back of the fuel lid cover.

Traffic Light Theory

A man is taking taxi to a place that not too familiar. Along the way, he encountered 5 or 6 consecutive traffic red lights. Seeing reaching the junction soon, eventually still ran into a red light.

This man casually say: “It’s bad luck! Stop consecutive at the red light”.

The driver reply with sincere smile: “Don’t be sad! God is fair, we are always the first can go when green light is on!”

In your life journey, you’re always facing both red and green lights. Red light is let us slow down to think and plan for next step. And life’s journey is not blindly move forward without a proper planning.

How to Build Branding for Website

Is online brand really important for website?

Why someone prefer buy coke instead of any other drink?
Why do people pay higher price for Apple’s Iphone?

The answer is branding effect. All these companies have successfully built brands in such a way that they have something different than other competitors. Let’s take another example, you can easily establish a restaurant that looks like McDonalds but will it be McDonalds in the consumer’s eye? Of course not, because McDonalds has built a strong brand in consumer’s mind.

Backup is Your Second Life

To my loyal visitors, I know you should encounter error when visiting AnyGreatIdea.com within these few days. This is due to the web server files are corrupted with unknown reason. I was communicate with relevant party (hosting company), they feedback the server is in well condition, they suspecting my website had been hacked by someone. The worst case I might lost all database in my website, my entire efforts to build up this “Ideas Database” might be gone…..

Oh….no, I am stunned when receive this news. My mind is keep asking myself whether am I do “BACKUP” of database before? I trying hard to recall back my memory, searching everywhere in my PC, hoping can get back my previous backup. Eventually I was so lucky to found my backup copy…..thanks god

After this incident, something I learn is “Backup is really important for life”. Backup is not only applied to computing, but it can be applied to everything in your life. For example, why people buy insurance? Insurance actually like a backup to cover a part of loses in case any disaster happen.

In Business, “Backup plan” devised for a specific situation when things could go wrong. Some people call “Contingency plan”, or “Plan-B”. So…do you have your Plan-B? Well, you MUST have a Plan-B ok?

Chilis Theory

People who sell chili, it is always come across the same question from buyer,

“Is your chili spicy?”

This is tricky question. If answer “spicy”, perhaps buyer is a fear of hot and leave immediately; If answer “less spicy,” it might be buyer is looking for hot spicy chili.

The well-known method is separate chili into 2 groups, spicy and less spicy. Where this is basic theory from study book. In real life, there are many other solutions or even better solution.

When the buyer asking, I will answer “deep colors are spicy, light colors are less spicy” then let buyer to choose for themselves. By doing this, I don’t need to spend time separate those chilies. Further, my statement is more flexible for different situation. For instance, I even can tell the buyer

“smaller size are spicy, bigger size are less spicy”
“shorter are spicy, longer are less spicy”

My idea today, there is always more than one solutions, just think out of the box and you can make the different.

Traffic is King, Content is Queen

Most of you managed to create great content for your websites yet failed to get a respectable number of visitors to view your content. Basically, great content is only effective to retain visitor who have already visited your website but it never help you to bring new visitors to your website.

This is mean your website traffic is the “king”, and content is just the “queen”. Of course you need both to survive and continue growth your website. Yeah, the real King is marketing your website. See my previous post under “internet category” to get more info for how to get traffic to your website, how to tell the right people about your great content.

In most time, your website was rejected by lots of people is not because your content is bad, but is actually you didn’t targeted the right visitors to your website. In short, learn marketing, become persistence (never give up) and you will succeed in creating a famous website.

Technical Analysis vs Fundamental Analysis

There are 2 type of analysis methods for investor use to analyze financial market. It is “Fundamental analysis” and “Technical analysis”.

Fundamental analysis
Is a method of evaluating the value of a company, the share price, by researching and examining the corporate financial statements, the business itself, industry outlook and etc…. Conventional wisdom dictates that the price of a stock that is trading for less than its intrinsic value should rise and the price of a stock that is trading for higher than its intrinsic value should fall. Fundamental analysis assumes that the market has perfect information and investors will act rationally based on the information.

Technical analysis
Is a method of evaluating future price of a stock based on statistical analysis of past behaviors of the stock. Behaviors of stock include trading volume, moving averages, price trends and other types of charts. Technical analysis assumes that the price chart frequently anticipates news and other fundamental events before they become public knowledge. It is used by market analysts to identify the beginning of an uptrend, entry point, beginning of a downtrend and the exit point.

In conclusion, both analysis method have their merits and should be used at the right times. As a good investor, you must make use of both analysis methods to help you success in your investment.
