Sumber Pemborosan Tiap Hari

http://id.she.yahoo.com/sumber-pemborosan-tiap-hari.html

Tanpa sadar sehari-hari kita melakukan pemborosan. Kenali apa saja hal kecil yang bisa berpotensi menguras kantong Anda secara diam-diam.

1. Telat bayar tagihan
Denda dengan jumlah yang kecil memang kesannya sepele. Tapi lama-lama tak terasa akan menjadi banyak. Usahakan selalu tepat waktu dalam membayar berbagai tagihan listrik, telepon, Internet, sampai kartu kredit. Gunakan fitur pengingat di kalender ponsel, bila Anda tipe pelupa. Jika lembar tagihan belum datang dan tenggat tagihan sudah dekat, sebaiknya hubungi perusahaan bersangkutan untuk mengetahui jumlah tagihan. Apalagi untuk kartu kredit, terlambat bukan hanya membayar denda, tapi juga bunga. 

2. Pembelian yang tidak masuk akal
Sering wanita membeli pakaian yang terlalu besar dengan niat membawanya ke tukang jahit. Atau sebaliknya, terlalu kecil dengan harapan suatu saat akan pas di badan setelah diet habis-habisan. Percayalah, hampir sebagian besar kasus ini tidak akan berakhir sesuai rencana. Kemungkinan Anda terlalu sibuk untuk membawa baju tersebut ke tukang jahit atau tak sempat melakukan diet sehingga baju tersebut hanya akan menjadi penghuni abadi lemari Anda. 

3. Terlalu sering makan di luar
Ini merupakan pemborosan terselubung yang tidak terasa. Bukan berarti Anda dilarang makan di luar atau ngopi-ngopi bersama teman usai bekerja. Tetapi ketahui batasan Anda dan jika sudah melebihi jatah bulanan, mau tak mau kompensasikan dengan mengurangi pengeluaran lain. Misalnya sesekali membawa makan dari rumah untuk makan siang di kantor atau berkumpul bersama teman-teman di rumah ditemani cemilan dan makanan buatan sendiri. 

4. Biaya ATM 
Seringkali Anda harus dihadapkan pada situasi tak ada ATM bank pilihan Anda dan terpaksa tarik tunai di ATM bank lain. Sesekali memang tak ada salahnya, tapi jangan dibiasakan. Jika Anda harus naik dari lantai dasar ke lantai 6 untuk menuju ATM bank Anda sedangkan di depan mata ada ATM bank lain, jangan mudah tergoda. Usahakan menarik uang sebisa mungkin tanpa biaya. Pelajari penawaran dari bank Anda. Beberapa bank menawarkan transaksi gratis dengan syarat tertentu. 

5. Pembelian impulsif 
Diskon atau promosi kartu kredit seringkali menjadi titik lemah para wanita saat berbelanja. Promosi beli satu dapat satu ekstra, potongan harga jika berbelanja dengan jumlah tertentu, atau hadiah spesial dengan pembelanjaan khusus seringkali merupakan penawaran yang sulit ditolak. Memang kedengarannya klasik, tapi apakah Anda benar-benar membutuhkannya? Jika Anda belum bisa membayangkan menggunakan benda tersebut lebih dari dua kali, sebaiknya lupakan saja niat membeli. Bayangkan ada berapa barang di lemari Anda yang belum pernah dipakai, bahkan sekali pun. 

6. Benda sekali pakai 
Karena ada acara olahraga di kantor, Anda memaksakan diri membeli celana olahraga baru atau membeli gaun berwarna emas agar sesuai dengan tema pernikahan kawan. Lalu apa yang terjadi setelah acara tersebut? Biasanya benda yang dibeli hanya menjadi penghuni lemari. Maksimalkan kreativitas dan koneksi Anda dalam hal ini. Apakah kakak ipar atau sahabat Anda punya benda yang dibutuhkan sehingga bisa dipinjam? Coba lihat kembali lemari Anda siapa tahu ada beberapa benda yang bisa “didaur ulang”.

7. Menggunakan kendaraan untuk jarak dekat
Pergi ke supermarket yang jaraknya hanya dua blok dari rumah tentu tak perlu menggunakan mobil atau motor. Usahakan berjalan kaki atau naik sepeda untuk menuju tempat yang masih terjangkau tenaga. Selain mendapat manfaat karena gerak badan, Anda juga terhindar dari pemborosan yang tidak perlu dengan menggunakan bensin serta kendaraan untuk jarak yang bisa dicapai dengan kaki. Selain hemat, Anda juga membantu mengurangi polusi akibat asap kendaraan. 

8. Pemborosan alat listrik 
Matikan peralatan listrik atau lampu ketika sedang tidak digunakan. Ini terdengar sepele, tapi baru akan terasa saat Anda membayar tagihan listrik. Untuk apa menyalakan pendingin ruangan saat Anda tak berada dalam ruangan tersebut. Matikan lampu halaman segera saat matahari mulai bersinar. Penghematan penggunaan listrik ini, selain ramah lingkungan juga ramah dompet.

Tips Berdoa yang Gak Membosankan


  1. Ada banyak orang malas berdoa dengan alasan gak pinter berkata-kata dalam doa. Yah...kalau mau ngomong, ngomong aja ama Tuhan sepeti teman, bapak atau orang terdekat kita dengan yang gak terlalu puitis.
  2. Gak usah bertele-tele karna Tuhan tau kog apa yang hendak kita ucapkan.
  3. Sebelum berdoa minta damai sejahtera-Nya dulu, mungkin kamu lagi emosi, patah hati, atau punya dendam. Doa disertai amarah itu sia-sia.
  4. Bersyukur dulu, ingat yang baik-baik dan have fun ma Tuhan. kalo ingat yang jelek langsung minta penghiburan dan solusi dari Tuhan.
  5. Kalo capek banget dan ngantuk banget, tetep doa yang isinya bersyukur aja buat hari yang melelahkan karena rasa syukur kepada Tuhan akan mendatangkan berkat yang besar.


Tips menjaga Iman


  1. Kendalikan emosi dan hawa nafsu.
  2. Kenyangkan rohani setiap hari dengan firman-Nya.
  3. Perkuat prinsip untuk hidup benar.
  4. Perbuat dan perkataan firman Tuhan.
  5. Pandang ke depan melihat masa depan yang dijanjikan Tuhan.
  6. Bersandar pada Tuhan bukan pada manusia.
  7. Berkumpulah dengan orang-orang beriman.
  8. Percaya diri dalam Tuhan.
  9. Minta agar Roh Kudus yang selalu memimpin hidup kamu.

Tips membaca Renungan


  1. Kalok malas baca pagi, siang ataupun malam juga boleh. pokoknya dalam satu hari harus ada makanan buat rohani kita teman. :)
  2. Jangan membaca Renungan disaat malas, ngantuk, menghayal ataupun terpaksa kali.
  3. Tanamkan dalam hati kamu bahwa renungan itu adalah makanan rohani yang harus dimakan. kalo gag rohani bakal mati dan jadi budak iblis loh. :(
  4. Buat jam khusus untuk membaca renunganplus doa jadi kamu juga mendisiplinkan diri secara gak langsung.
  5. Baca jangan sekedar baca, renungkan dan lakukan.

"The Story Of Us"



I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us,
How we met and the sparks flew instantly,
People would say, "They're the lucky ones."
I used to know my place was a spot next to you,
Now I'm searching the room for an empty seat,
'Cause lately I don't even know what page you're on.

Oh, a simple complication,
Miscommunications lead to fall-out.
So many things that I wish you knew,
So many walls that I can't break through.

[Chorus:]
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room and we're not speaking,
And I'm dying to know is it killing you like it's killing me, yeah?
I don't know what to say, since the twist of fate when it all broke down,
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now.

Next chapter.

How'd we end up this way?
See me nervously pulling at my clothes and trying to look busy,
And you're doing your best to avoid me.
I'm starting to think one day I'll tell the story of us,
How I was losing my mind when I saw you here,
But you held your pride like you should've held me.

Oh, I'm scared to see the ending,
Why are we pretending this is nothing?
I'd tell you I miss you but I don't know how,
I've never heard silence quite this loud.

[Chorus:]
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room and we're not speaking,
And I'm dying to know is it killing you like it's killing me, yeah?
I don't know what to say, since the twist of fate when it all broke down,
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now.

This is looking like a contest,
Of who can act like they care less,
But I liked it better when you were on my side.
The battle's in your hands now,
But I would lay my armor down
If you said you'd rather love than fight.
So many things that you wished I knew,
But the story of us might be ending soon.

[Chorus:]
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room and we're not speaking,
And I'm dying to know is it killing you like it's killing me, yeah?
I don't know what to say, since the twist of fate when it all broke down,
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now, now, now.
And we're not speaking,
And I'm dying to know is it killing you like it's killing me, yeah?
I don't know what to say, since the twist of fate 'cause we're going down,
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now.

The end. 

"Speak Now"



I am not the kind of girl
Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion
But you are not the kind of boy
Who should be marrying the wrong girl

I sneak in and see your friends
And her snotty little family all dressed in pastel
And she is yelling at a bridesmaid
Somewhere back inside a room
Wearing a gown shaped like a pastry

This is surely not what you thought it would be
I lose myself in a daydream
Where I stand and say

[Chorus:]
Don’t say "Yes", run away now
I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the back door
Don’t wait or say a single vow
You need to hear me out
And they said, "Speak now"

Fond gestures are exchanged
And the organ starts to play
A song that sounds like a death march
And I am hiding in the curtains
It seems that I was uninvited by your lovely bride-to-be

She floats down the aisle like a pageant queen
But I know you wish it was me,
You wish it was me,
Don’t you?

[Chorus:]
Don’t say "Yes", run away now,
I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the back door.
Don’t wait or say a single vow,
You need to hear me out,
And they said, "Speak now".
Don’t say "Yes", run away now,
I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the back door.
Don’t wait or say a single vow,
Your time is running out,
And they said, "Speak now".

Oh, la, la
Oh, oh
Say a single vow

I hear the preacher say, "Speak now or forever hold your peace"
There’s the silence, there’s my last chance.
I stand up with shaky hands, all eyes on me.
Horrified looks from everyone in the room
But I’m only looking at you.

I am not the kind of girl
Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion
But you are not the kind of boy
Who should be marrying the wrong girl

[Chorus:]
So, don’t say "Yes", run away now,
I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the back door.
Don’t wait or say a single vow,
You need to hear me out,
And they said, "Speak now".
And you’ll say "Let’s run away now,
I’ll meet you when I’m out of my tux at the back door.
Baby, I didn’t say my vows,
So glad you were around
When they said, "Speak now". 

"You And I"



You and I
Hold me tight
You and I
Gotta fight
You and I
Side by side
You and I
Say good-bye
You and I
Feels so right
You and I
Holding tight
You and I
Side by side
You and I
For the rest of our lives

Every night
We're all alone every night
My only hope
Is the light
That's shinning from inside you
'Cause you believe
In what we are
You believe
In what we'll be
Give me strength
So I can stand beside you

No truths to confirm
No lies to deny
Too hopeless to care
We're too scared to cry

You and I
Hold me tight
You and I
Gotta fight
You and I
Side by side
You and I
Say good-bye
You and I
Feels so right
You and I
Holding tight
You and I
Side by side
You and I
For the rest of our lives

Cast a side
To an anguished street
Criticized
For what we believe
If we hide
Maybe we can make it through this
Is it fair
To be burned away?
Is it fair
That we live this way?
Victimized
For a life we didn't ask for

No truths to confirm
No lies to deny
Too hopeless to care
We're too scared to cry

You and I
Hold me tight
You and I
Gotta fight
You and I
Side by side
You and I
Say good-bye
You and I
Feels so right
You and I
Holding tight
You and I
Side by side
You and I
For the rest of our lives

You and I
Hold me tight
You and I
Gotta fight
You and I
Side by side
You and I
Say good-bye
You and I
Feels so right
You and I
Holding tight
You and I
Side by side
You and I
For the rest of our lives 

"I Think Of You"



When I'm down and all alone
When nothing seems to matter
When I lose my hope
When I'm sad and confused

When it all gets turned around and 'round 
I can't seem to reach for solid ground
When everything I've believed in seems untrue
All I have to do

[Chorus]
Is think of you 
I think of you and it's gone
Like you chase away the storm
Making it all okay
I think of you
I think of you and I'm strong
And I know I can go on
It's like you set me free
When life gets the best of me
I just think of you

Now I know what love means
And whatever life may hold for me
Through the fire
Through the rain I believe

Cause there's nothing I can't bear
Knowing that you will be there
If I fall I won't break
Through it all I'll make it through
Cause all I have to do

[Chorus]

And when I think I'm all alone
I can't see the way to go
Lost in the rain of my own tears
To wash away the pain and fear

[Chorus]

For the good times and the bad times
I just think of you
Cause you know you get the best of me
I just think of you 

"For You I Will"



When you're feeling lost in the night
When you feel your world just ain't right
Call on me, I will be waiting
Count on me, I will be there
Anytime the times get too tough
Anytime your best ain't enough
I'll be the one to make it better
I'll be there to protect you, see you through
I'll be there, and there is nothing, I won't do

[Chorus]
I will cross the ocean for you
I will go and bring you the moon
I will be your hero, your strength
Anything you need
I will be the sun in your sky
I will light your way for all time
Promise you, for you I will

I will shield your heart from the rain
I won't let no harm come your way
Oh these arms will be your shelter
No these arms won't let you down
If there is a mountain to move
I will move that mountain for you
I'm here for you, I'm here forever
I will be your fortress, tall and strong
I'll keep you safe, I'll stand beside you, right or wrong

[Chorus]

For you I will, lay my life on the line
For you I will fight, hmmm, for you I will die
With every breath, with all my soul
I'll give my word, I'll give it all
Put your faith in me
And I'll do anything

[Chorus]
Promise you, for you I will
