How to keep your self motivated?

I have been working since 8.5 years in my professional life and there were times again and again when I wanted to just finish with my dreams .. forget about it and go wander streets..

How ever; I manage to ponder some points for every one out there which can help you keep your self motivated, no matter what the circumstances are!

So Here you go:

1) Get rid of distractions

Block your Facebook account or better temporary close it if that helps.

If you want people in your surroundings to be quite while you work and they are noisy make sure to tell them as most of us don't communicate and just keep hating the other person. Better; ask your manager to allow you to change the place (if you are the lucky one)

There can be many other distractions but all you need to do is to some how true to your JOB!

2) Achievable Goals

Make sure to make achievable goals

Don't think you can achieve all in one day, you cannot work can never be finish; make sure your goals are achievable with in stipulated time

3) Always remain positive

No matter what happens, no matter your manager gave you shit, be proud of your self and always try to be the best with your work. If its healthy criticism just take it and be better. If you think they are wrong then don't react as the time will come when you will proof them wrong!

4) Award yourself

Be Proud, be happy, when ever you achieve your goal, make your self like damm man you are good .. reward your self!

In the end, will say only one thing:

"BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO BE"

Nokia Pakistan Becomes the Top Brand on Facebook with 1 million fans

What is fan page and why creating a facebook fan page for your business?

In today's world facebook page works as a primary level communication with your customer. In the past web page was enough but today two way communication matters most. In addition to 2 way communication facebook page empower your customers to share the new models with their friends and family via their facebook account, so you getting publicity of your product for almost nothing. Expert says and I quote "The biggest advantage of facebook fan page is that it deepens customer relationship".


Nokia Facebook FanPage now have a Million Fans in less 10 months. What does it means? It means, It is now engaging Million Pakistani fans via their facebook and making sure that they getting all the latest information, deals and any other happening with Nokia Pakistan. Interestingly one of my friend says that he updated a feed back via Nokia Pakistan page and he got response immediately. (isn't that we all are looking for?) Currently Pakistan have around 7.5 million facebook users and Nokia is now able to cover 1 Million of them which is a big achievement.

Current trend and statistic in Pakistan:

Haseeb Ihtisham, Head of Marketing - Nokia MENA says:

“We are thoroughly pleased with the growing excitement around Nokia Pakistan on Facebook. For us,
achieving 1 million fans of our Facebook page is a proof that Nokia continues to deliver an exceptional
communications experience to consumers. It also reflects the fact that Nokia has been able to
successfully connect with Nokia fans across Pakistan on a personal level,”

Djuice Apportunity Closing Ceremony - 2012

Event started with introduction of djApportunity which is same that empowering our youth to create more and more apps and giving them platform a global exposure and resources, thus helping them in all possible ways to make sure they become successful.

Some facts about this year programme of "App mein kitna hay dum" This year most of the apps were submitted by students from Karachi University. 83 apps were completed and were submitted and all were registered. 1700 plus registrants from 8 universities of Pakistan. I personally think it will cross 140 next year.

After this lot if intro's the guy running the show kept the event interesting on tried his level best to keep event interesting lol.. kher moving forward Panel discussion on "Future of mobile Apps" very interesting questions and answers.

After that a competition to find all the QR codes was there. Scavenger hunt and one of ma buddy won!!!. Moving forward quiz and later gift ceremony to those who were able to sell most of the apps or were able to make quiet interesting apps and then food.

Overall it was a marvellous job by DJuice team, I believe they hired Lane12 as their digital company.

My live tweets from the event:

In the end, I believe Djuice / Telenor is doing an amazing job to contribute in the echo system and I am just surprise that other giants from the same industry are not following them yet!

Muneeb Iqbal - (Ricky)

Why you should buy DID numbers from DIDx?

Why should your company buy DID numbers from DIDx and not from tons of other DID seller out there?

One of the most prominent reason is that DIDx is the pioneer when it comes to DID numbers. DIDx was the first one to come up with an idea of one platform for the convenience of buyers and sellers.

The biggest advantage of buying numbers from DIDx is that you just need to sign agreement with DIDx and you will be able to get your hands on numbers from all the Tier1 Telecom Companies out there? Let's now look at the picture if DIDx was not there? shall we?

If DIDx was not there then ABCTel.com who is smb void provider have to go to XO, Level 3, Biggest provider in Germany and other places. Negotiate a better price with them, Interop with them, Signing document with them after which only you will be able to purchase numbers from them. Once you will purchase number its not necessary that you have ready customer waiting for you, so you will keep on paying them wether your numbers are sold or not.

DIDx gave all of us a convenience where by signing just one document with DIDx you will be able to purchase the numbers from all the companies via DIDx. Bonus part is that you will be able to show DIDx numbers on your web site by integrating our API on your website.

So what are you waiting for? welcome to DIDx family in advance!!!

N9 the pricing set for N9 is  PKR. 52,000/- with 16GB and is now available in White color. The good part about colors is that now you don't have to worry that much about scratches because even after the scratch the color will remain same as there is no paint job this time

Some of the key features for N9:

MeeGo OS v1.2 Harmattan - Linux based
Gorila Glass -  Anti-glare polarizer they say this glass is used in fighter copters
Weight only 135 gm
BuiltIN NFC now this was really cool, touch other device which is NFC enabled and there you go its paired and Henri said its also cross platform enable meaning doesn't matter if other device is not Nokia the nfc technology will still work

Over all, its a good phone and I think one should buy. Pictures below:

HyperStar in Karachi!

I wanted to share this post because I was very excited to see this huge mart in Karachi

The other day me and my friend were passing from Afridi INN in Karachi and we were going towards hotnspicy roll corner and we saw this HyperStar Logo which resembles carrefour logo. I was like what the hell, why I didn't knew about it and then I saw many cars going inn and we decided to go as well.

Kher jee, we parked the car and went inside the mall Dolmen City where HyperStar is opened and then I saw the counters and I was convinced carrefour have to do some thing with him and I asked one of the employee bhai is this carrefour or hyper star? and his replied was yes; its a merger b/w two and I am still not sure wether he was right or wrong

Moving forward, we started from the electronics section and we spent 3 hours surveying store and we were like very nice now we don't need to waste our time in electronics market and ask for discount e.t.c. because the BEST possible pricing with best possible deals was available there so my tension of going to Electronic market was over. I saw the pricing of shaver and LCD and I know there was a difference of 1000 rupees with free delivery by HyperStar to any where in Karachi. Same goes for Spice market, Auto market and I was finally able to see Red Sniper Fish there which I was not able to find any where easily and such huge CRAB for (Crab Lovers) :)

So Guyz what are you waiting for they have outlet now in Karachi and Lahore go check out and now you don't need to go to any other market!

The Beard Poem -

I have not written this poem but I liked it so much that I wanted to share this on my blog:

the Beard Poem
Post by abdulrafiq on Sept 17, 2005, 7:42pm

THIS POEM WAS WRITTEN BY A BROTHER....CARRY ON READING YOU'LL KNOW WHAT I MEAN, ITS ABOUT A BEARD....

Context of poem

I came to eat dinner in my halls of residence one day last year when two sisters started laughing at me;I had some food stuck in my beard. They went on to innocently and honestly mock my beard saying it was messy, unnatural and unhygienic. Little did they know the rage that I felt as a result of this and I channeled this rage byunleashing my anger through my pen and out came this poem.

I performed this poem in the Leicester University/DMU Islamic Societies and Eid Celebration and it was received with much laughter and acclaim - Alhamdulillah. Due to popular demand and many requests I have decided to type my poem up and email it to my friends in Islam. Let me remind you all not to be offended as this is no fatwa or religious statement - just a funny poem that spontaneously was produced as a result of my unfortunate experience...

Tushar (12th March 2001)

Glorified be He who beautifies women with long locks of hair
And Men with long beards
There is beauty in the beard
Aye, there is beauty in the beard!
When the lion roars all the animals submit?
For the lion is the king of the jungle
The lion with its glorious mane
And a Muslim man grows his mane in pride
Showing the rest of humanity that he is to be respected
Can one imagine a lion without its mane?
Nay, thou canst not!
Then imagine a man without his beard

Woe to worldly women who mock the beards so!
Desiring husbands with clean shaven faces
Woe to women who mock the Prophets Sunnah
In the name of hygiene, neatness and smooth texture
Indeed the women of this world cannot like the beard
But she who wants Paradise adores the beard!

A beard is a gift given to man
Something only he can grow; a woman never can!
When he ponders, he gently strokes it;
When he eats, it stores food;
When he is with kids, they play with it adoringly;
When he is with his wife, she fondles it lovingly;
When the enemy see it, fear is struck in their hearts!

Ah! there is indeed beauty in the beard!
All the Prophets had beards - yes they did!
Muhammad had a beard - so big! so big!
All the companions had beards - o yes! o yes!
All the sages had beards - I know! I know!
All the wise have beards - tis true! tis true!
All the pious have beards - you see! you see!
All the Muslims have beards!? - if only! if only!
Who did not have beards? The kafirun!
Who had clean shaven faces? The kafirun!
Who grew their moustaches? The kafirun!

"And what did our Prophet order?" I here you ask
He ordered us to lengthen the beard and trim the moustache!
Lengthen the beard and trim the moustache!
What greater reason that this can there be
The fact that our Prophet told us to see
That we make ourselves appear to the world
As full bearded men with honour untold
O Muslim brother! Why do you desire to look like a woman
When your blessed facial hair is the differece between you and the opposite gender?

O poor Muslim brother! Why do you imitate the kafir
Instead of following the Prophet of Islam?
O silly Muslim sister! Why are you so blind?
Infatuated with Bollywood actors who have no mind!
O wretched sister! Are you not scared of your choice?
You would rather have a feminine monkey instead of an exalted manly ape!

So indeed I love my beard
And adore the curls and tangles
Which no oil, gel or superglue can ever straighten
My glorious long, curly, messy, fluffy beard!
The playhouse for kids;
The envy of Malaysian people
And the beloved of Allah!
I maybe rejected by worldly women because of this hair on my face
But who care! For my Mum loves it and she puts all such sisters to disgrace!
Be patient Muslim brothers, who shun the trendy look for a Prophetic pose
Paradise with the wide eyed Houris is our final abode!!!!!

Oh ALLAH, I almost sold you for a quarter!

I just got this and I wanted to make sure to share it!

Brothers and sisters in Islam,

Several years ago, an Imam from out-of-state accepted a call to a Mosque in Houston, Texas.

Some weeks after he arrived, he had an occasion to ride the bus from his home to the downtown area. When he sat down, he discovered that the driver had accidentally given him a quarter too much change.

As he considered what to do, he thought to himself, 'You'd better give the quarter back. It would be wrong to keep it.' Then he thought, 'Oh, forget it,
it's only a quarter. Who would worry about this little amount? Anyway, the bus company gets too much fare; they will never miss it.

Accept it as a 'gift from ALLAH' and keep quiet.' When his stop came, he paused momentarily at the door, and then he handed the quarter to the driver and said, 'Here, you gave me too much change 'The driver, with a smile, replied, 'Aren't you the
new Imam in town?' 'Yes' he replied.
'Well, I have been thinking a lot lately about going somewhere to worship. I just wanted to see what you would do if I gave you too much change. I'll see you at the mosque.'

When the preacher stepped off of the bus, he literally grabbed the nearest light pole, held on, and said, 'Oh ALLAH, I almost sold you for a quarter.'

Our lives are the only Quran some people will ever read. This is a really scary example of how much people watch us as Muslims, and will put us to the test! Always be on guard -- and remember -- You carry your IMAN on your shoulders when you call yourself 'Muslim.'

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

Important Security tips for linux

1) Use strong Passwords: We can't stress this one enough: Use strong
passwords! One of the first actions many people do when after they install
their PBX, is often to create a phone extension with an easy password. Avoid
using short or weak extension passwords. Please remember to use passwords of
at least 8 characters, including a mix of upper and lower case along with
digits. Remember to change them periodically every 2-3 months at most.

2) Public Internet: Avoid leaving your PBX systems, ATA Adapters and IP
Phones open to the internet. Do not use DMZ mode on your router and do not
forward ports to your equipment, unless you absolutely know what you are
doing. This is only needed on specific cases, and only leave it open to the
internet if you have experience on how to properly manage security on
equipment that is open to the internet.

3) Asterisk Tweak: If you are using an Asterisk based PBX, add the
following line to the sip.conf file under the [general] section and issue a
reload
alwaysauthreject = yes

What this parameter does, is that it will always return an authentication
error instead of a .404 not found:., even when the extension doesn't exist.
This steps-up the difficulty for brute force scanners when they are
attacking your PBX.

4) Trixbox, PBX In a Flash and other web interface based PBX: Change
the default password. Different flavors of PBX installs come with default
administration passwords. Make sure to change the default passwords
immediately after your installation and also make sure the web interface is
not reachable from the internet.

5) PBX Dial Plan: Do you make international calls? If no, do not allow
international calls to be placed from your PBX. In Asterisk, remove ._011..
Or .00_. . Never use ._... If you are only calling a few countries on a
regular basis, enable these countries only. For example: The only country
you're calling is UK? Only configure _01144. In your dialplan.

6) Use additional caution while travelling: Do you plan on using a soft
phone at a random internet cafe? Make sure you remove your login details
after using it, and uninstall the software if possible.

7) Asterisk and Fail2ban: As an additional step you can install an
additional security tool such as fail2ban, which is a free brute force
detection system, it scans the log files of your PBX and then takes action
based on the entries of those logs.

Shoe attack on Zardari - Serves him right!

Finally after so much curses and talk talk talk.. One man was able to protest practically in Birmingham on our great Zardari. Zardari is the president of Pakistan, a president who cannot cancel his trip in the times of crisis in the country. Pakistan is currently facing worst floods and need every thing they can to get out of this crisis. Not to mention history of Pakistan doesn't show flood in Pakistan with such density in the past.

I still remember there was an earthquake or flood in china and their president was on the spot with in 2 hours helping people and making sure an action is being taken to fix the situation and what did our AKA did? went on an official trip of Europe in times of EMERGENCY in the country.

Well history repeats it self, yesterday Mr Bush was loved by his people and loved by whole world so much that a guy in Iraq throwed shoe on him, similarly now a days no one can deny with Zardari's popularity who recently demanded 10% from Bill Gates for opening a software house near Gawadar, so much for being a president :)

Well coming back to our topic, finally a Pakistani elder had guts to throw shoes on President Zardari during his speech in Birmingham. This guy showed the true voice of every one in Pakistan!

Here you go with the interview of that guy taken by Geo:



You know what, Life isn't all the beautiful but we all have to take a stand. Current president is no good for the country and I guess now we all know that because of the halaat in our country. Taxes on every thing :)
May Allah shower his blessings on Pakistan and help us get rid of corruption. Pakistan Zindabad!

Do you hate Some One?

I got this via forwarded email and wanted to share it on my blog:


A Nice story with a good moral. Please go through.

A kindergarten teacher has decided to let her class play a game.

The teacher told each child in the class to bring along a plastic bag containing a few potatoes.

Each potato will be given a name of a person that the child hates,

So the number of potatoes that a child will put in his/her plastic bag will depend on the number of people he/she hates.

So when the day came, every child brought some potatoes with the name of the people he/she hated. Some had 2 potatoes; some 3 while some up to 5 potatoes. The teacher then told the children to carry with them the potatoes in the plastic bag wherever they go (even to the toilet) for 1 week.

Days after days passed by, and the children started to complain due to the unpleasant smell let out by the rotten potatoes. Besides, those having 5 potatoes also had to carry heavier bags. After 1 week, the children were relieved because the game had finally ended....

The teacher asked: "How did you feel while carrying the potatoes with you for 1 week?". The children let out their frustrations and started complaining of the trouble that they had to go through having to carry the heavy and smelly potatoes wherever they go.

Then the teacher told them the hidden meaning behind the game. The teacher said: "This is exactly the situation when you carry your hatred for somebody inside your heart. The stench of hatred will contaminate your heart and you will carry it with you wherever you go. If you cannot tolerate the smell of rotten potatoes for just 1 week, can you imagine what is it like to have the stench of hatred in your heart for your lifetime???"

Moral of the story: Throw away any hatred for anyone from your heart so that you will not carry sins for a lifetime. Forgiving others is the best attitude to take!

True love is not loving a perfect person but loving an imperfect person perfectly!!

DIDXchange Members Empower Users with Phone Numbers from a Most Livable Country New Zealand

Auckland, New Zealand, March 14, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Super Technologies, Inc. via its wholesale DIDXchange service has announced the addition of the New Zealand phone numbers to 16,200 telephony service providers' DIDX marketplace.

New Zealand is a developed country that ranks highly in international comparisons on human development, quality of life, life expectancy, literacy, public education, peace, prosperity, economic freedom, ease of doing business, lack of corruption, press freedom, and the protection of civil liberties and political rights. Auckland, one of the wholesale phone number areas available on DIDXchange, is fourth on the Mercer's Quality of Living Survey 2009.

CLECs, VoIP companies, mobile operators, MVNOs, and other wholesale level IP communications providers are able to sign up, complete a six step interop, terms and SLA. This instantly interconnects the active member with thousands of other providers in 170 nations with access to DID phone numbers from New Zealand, but also 63 countries and over 6000 cities, with choice of pricing, plans, features, quality level and vendor.

“In 2010, our aim is to help our wholesale clients to not waste time and effort in securing the IP communications needs of their users. The provider of the New Zealand DIDs is offering the right price, high quality and great features of .99 USD cents/month with 5000 minutes included. The vendor has a good rating of 4. We love the idea that our clients' users will have the opportunity to have a presence in such a beautiful and prosperous area of the world, New Zealand, via a phone number,” stated Suzanne Bowen, vice president of Super Technologies, Inc. and its DIDX service.

The DIDXchange makes available the sale and purchase of wholesale DID and DDI via a unique portal for each member and also via the free API. The portal has a BUY DID function with standard and advanced search, announcement of specials on DIDs like New Zealand and conferences and tradeshows. It has a knowledge base, local number porting tools, DID tester, reports available for XLS download, call log lists and more.

"Some may not understand what a user can do with a phone number of a country that the user is physically in. It provides the most inexpensive way to have a local presence in the area important to the user. It makes it where those who live in that area who are important to the user, will not hesitate to pick up the phone, call the local New Zealand number, and it rings the user who bought the number," commented Nauman Ibrahim, Manager Carrier Relations for Super Technologies, Inc. “These New Zealand phone numbers can be directed to a SIP/IAX point anywhere in the world. Didx strives to provide the best quality, reasonably priced DiD numbers on wholesale in a variety of formats and choices. Users will realize that there is no need for a landline.

Zong new offer 2 Numbers one Sim [Comparative Analysis :)]

I was going through different forums today and found out Zong has launched a new service with the

name of Chine-Ease .. my anxietiness forced me to go on their web site and read more about the

service .. to my surprise the title of the page http://zong.com.pk/zong_chine_ease.html says

UNTITLED now such a big company not taking care of this mere stuff.

Not complaining just want you all to send them complain / suggestion to fix this, like I did.

Coming back to the offer they are making Chinese number on your Pakistani number where you can

easily recieve calls on your Pakistani number when some one will dial a China number or vice versa.

The pricing goes like:

Incoming calls to any other the two number will cost you 10 rs per minute
Outgoing calls within China 10
Call to Pakistan 25

Now, why would I go for such offer where I can buy a Chinese number for $5 a month and 7 cents a

minute for calls on my cell phone number in Pakistan from http://www.virtualphoneline.com

Rs 420 per month and around PKR 7 per minute to recieve call on your Pakistani number, not to mention  the sms rates and all other rates will be normal or you can get a Pakistani number for $1 per month on your Chinese number where Rs 84 / month and $0.029 (Rs 3) per minute.

So why would I bother going for China Ease package :)

Thank you Virtualphonelineline.com you made my day!
