- Think as well about When. Those "How" and "When" would help you to realize the note to achieved task.
- Record your random ideas as leads of innovations.
- Whenever you have an idea, turn to it to tangible achievement and value. Invest it.
- dump all you ideas here where your blogging is your reliable journaling.
- I will not allow myself to destroy myself or to let me sink in the deep shit hole.
- I will show myself and I will prove to myself that I can do it. Remember that whenever you have challenge to overcome.
from my diaries - self dialog
- When Bill Gates will leave the world, he could proudly say that I contributing in creating better world than the one I grew up in. Can you claim the same?

Some of previous writings - ambitions
Ambition:
"
- If you can touch the cloud, why you are living in the slum and the garbage land.
- There are so many pleasures and gains in the life so why you are not looking forward to harvest them and get them.
- Life is running and withdrawn unconsciously and gradually and smoothly between your hand and the best years of your life have already almost gone. What else are you waiting for to "really and effectively and seriously" start.
"
Problems are only challenges to be addressed
Breeding my mind
I could think as well about MBA or work related objectives or planning for personal corporate objectives.

Time as a continuous pressure
Innovation is changing the world
Facebook as news transporter
Technology, Wrokforce and working time
Technology and implementation of the innovations can contribute as well in improving the safety record. Manless rigs and office managed operations are already available technology but the mentalities of the CEO's and the decision makers are still on-site dependent minds.
Gastro-Culture
Having my current work assignment in Indonesia has given me good chance to explore so many new recipes in this mosaic of ethnics and cultures.
Whenever I check the menu, I'm searching for the weired and new items.

Internet as an effective weapon in the political struggle
This has triggered me to gather some thoughts about the best way to create effective and influential political campaigns launched from the internet.
- Technology could be effective weapon to uncover the brutality and the corruption of the government.
- Innovations have the potential to change the world.
- Picture is better than thousands of words. Mobile camera can be an amazing and effective weapon in struggling and facing of the corruption. If everyone has put that in his mind when he sees wrong doing and he ceases the chance to take photo of it, this could awaken millions of people. That what happened exactly in the case of Khaled Said. Someone managed to take photo of his smashed head and his broken jaw.
- Languages should be very simple and very close to the layman and the average people. Words have to be picked very carefully. Buzzy and formal words will kill the message.
- The campiagn started from Facebook and spreaded to the street. It is challenging to mobilze the Egyptians because of their deepened negative nature.
- Campaign has to be spreaded gradually from the narrow circle to the wider circles.
Meaning; the messege spreaded from Facebook to the talk shows and to the independent Internet Egyptian news portal and after that to the independent press.
- Creative and out of the box ideas have to be used in combating and resisting the harsh and aggressive dictatorships.
- Bulk SMS's to the mobile community would be major spreading to slices of community never approached even.
- Printed papers, posters.
- Emails to the whole email community.
- International talk shows like Aljazeera listening post.

Health care economics from the preventive medicine perspective
Combating the pollution instead of building hospital has the state of the art. I would spend fraction of this money on the pollution and the root causes.
In Egypt we built specialized hospital for children cancer mainly from the social philanthropy.
Everybody was talking proudly about this achievement and how it is equipped with the state of the art medical equipments and well trained staff.
I would perceive the whole matter from totally different angle. Firstly no one asked himself why we have this increasing trend of the cancer sick children. No one requested to go through root cause analysis of the problem and trace it to the fundamental causes.
This has to be concluded from medical surveys and statistics which can identify any pattern emerging in the public health and trigger investigation through systematic root cause analysis and pin point to them and the root solutions.
There is no any bit of rationale behind supplying the people with polluted drinking water and sub-standard processed food and heavily polluted air and after that requesting people to donate millions to build medical facilities to cure them.
The planning and the economics of the whole health care system should be re-designed to give priority to make people healthy and to prevent the spread of diseases rather than giving the priority to the treatments.
IF you we investigate many of the medical diseases and sickness, you will find that they are preventable.
We should encourage and provide incentives to the people who are maintaining their health because they are saving the budget of the people from spending it on their treatment.
For instance, we can provide them gym equipments or free tickets to outdoor activities and so on..
In short, instead of waiting for the fire to ignite and to escalate and interfere at this late moment by brining the heavy trucks and the huge fire extinguishers and the fire fighting squads, fight the lit.
Instead of spending millions on bronchitis treatment, plug filters to the cement factories to reduce the fumes. Spend fraction of this money on the public transportation so people will not use their cars wherever they go.
Instead of spending millions on treating the cancer, educate the people about the carcinogenic substances and how they could avoid it.
Instead of spending millions on diabetes, educate the people about the balanced meal and the importance of fibers and reducing the meat…

Blogsphere .. I wish I could give it more time
I was struggling to gauage the value of blogging against other activities like reading and my scientific notes and work creativity times. I found out that blogging still should have its own time which is really invested time and not wasted time and that was proven by the potential progress at several fronts.
Imagine now if these blogs will be available thorugh more portable and handy means like your iPhone or iPad. Definetely when this level of accessibility will come you will find the current model of journal writers will be replaced by different generations of bloggers and writers who write without boundaries.
In the authritarian countires , the press is totally hijaked by the governments and the writers are the cosmetic surgeons of these corrupted governements where they are their arm for shaping the mind of the people and deviate the public opinion to their interests.
The accessible blogsphere will break these monopoly on the press and will make it accessible for everyone.
Health Journaling
Should I create new blog page for this specific purose. I will think about that.
Google Health .. The amazing discovery of today
But for myself I liked the idea and I decided to create my own health record and make it digital and online for me and the family.
For no specific reason I thought about web site probably dedicated for hosting the personal health records and surprisingly I found out that Google has already created Google Health. This guys are astonishing. They are expanding their domain to cover each single aspect of our life.
Of course I created my Google Health profile. Later after experiencing it I will talk about my impressions about the service.
Preventive medicine
Each penny spent on the prevention will save hundreds of it spent post the disease.
Health resolutions
Increase the amount of fibers, vegetables and fruits in your meals.
When I was recalling my record of previous meals I found out that we as family hadn't have emough amount of fruits and it was the forgotten item in our meals.
Vegetables were barely OK and portiens were more than the accepted levels.
Monitoring the meals will alert you whenever you have unhealthy pattern of your food.
I'm glad that I'm regularly executing my previous resolution to drink more water. Now I need to to sustain this as a habit. and increase the fruits and vegetables.
Yougurt also needs more attention.
So since sometime I was eating two yougurt cans in daily basis.
Workout resolutions
During my stay here in the hotel and since the hotel dones't include any gym facilities I collected from the Internet very good ideas about the non equipment home workouts and I 'm exercising them on front of TV where I decided I will no stay on front of TV any more and it will be totally workouts on front of it.
Personal health record
In conjunction with my obsession to record and document everything, I’m planning to convert them to digital files and retain them as well.
It is very valuable to track my health and to take the required decision to improve it by the time.
This will include the following;
- Medical documents.
- Prescriptions.
- Vaccination records.
- Annual checkup reports.

Google universe
Yesterday I was checking on the internet the football world cup schedule and I wanted to embed it in my calendar. The available option I found was direct embedding of the schedule in iGoogle using new gadget for the football leagues including the all famous football leagues int he world in iGoogle. Actually I didn't know iGoogle before but it was really another cool utility from Google in the personalized web pages where I can aggregate several key web information boxex in one page. This will increse the productivity. I consider iGoogle and Google reader are one of the most productive utilities which really can improve the productivity and the information capturing in very short span.
iGoogle as well was full of gadgets whihc is unique value for all these open source platforms where it is open for the developers so they can unlimitedly develop their applications and gadgets on them.
I found alos the world cup schedule posted on the Google calendar and adjusted to my selected time zone which was different from PC purposely.
Eventually, I ended up with using two new applications, iGoogle and Google calendar where both have provided me with significant values.
This incident shows how Google is smartly withdrawing the customers to their universe of cloud applications.
If all these applications will be accessible someday with Android, then you can start to link the dots and figure out the gigantic business model of Google. Universal portability of their applications and full dependecy on their applications everywhere for personal and business usages.
How to improve your blogging
- The tools of expressions are very variable and till now I'm depending only on the textual expression. I can increase the bandwidth of my expressiont ools to include as well the photos, videos, drawings in my blogging. Drawiing s for example can be very expressive and now I understood why some diaries included drawings. It can be very effective part of the psychological exploration of the innner soul and improve the efficiency of the expression.
- Typing speed to be improved based on the rigth ergonomics.
- Think more deeply throughout your daily life to create seeds for our ideas to explore the life and yourself ad mature these ideas throughout the time.
- record notes in your mobile about the blogging subjects to avoid forgetting them.
More fluent and more efficient thinking
I'm becoming more fluent and more organized in my phrasing so the improvement in the written and verbal communication really is worthy the time spent on the blogging. This by itself is very valuable results from the blogging. Blogging as well is enriching my mind with ideas so now when I talk to people I have wider base of ideas about the subject of life where I thought about them befor and I have perspective and opinion toward things.
Crowed wisdom
The efficinecy of the crowd wisodm by expanding the crowed and encourage each member to effectively participate and provide the all required facilities to stimulate their minds and to educate them about the problem.
Some statistical tools can be utilized to measure the process and to convert it to quantitative results like histogram of the ideas and sorting them based on the most agreed and most suggested or the most economic or most affordable or most achievalbe or most creative.
So mnay cases can be addressed by the crowed wisdom so for instance the oil spill.
BP is struggling to plug the blown well and obviously the problem wasn't addressed before and it needs totally out of the box solution. Crowd wisodm will stimulate hundreds, thoiusands or even millions of brains into the problem and this will have the potential to widen the space thinking and creativity to its limits.
Now the problem only discussed within very closed circle of special matter experts but sometimes the out of box ideas can be effectively contributed by the non experts.
In business also, so many challenges can be addressed by the crowed wisdom. If the company managed to effectively include the widest circle of employees to contribute and participate in solving the company challenges, then thye could come up with very non traditional and creative and out of the box ideas for their business.
Other ideas as well will not be wasted but they can be reserved as ideas tank or reserve to be assessed and utilized when the appropriate time comes.
Political role of internet
Can internet play effective political role in the reforming and the struggle against dectatorship? Or it is just information flowing from useless person to another useless person. Probably the theory behind the influence and the impact of the internet and the wieght is based on the the flow of information to the widest circle and this will increase the probability of the effective people to contribute and the weight and the significance will be based at the end of the day on the power and the ability to change of the people. I'm trying to analyze the role can be played by the digital media to combat this brutality incident and what is the underlying dynamics of it.
So the analysis will be very helpful to understand the process and the evolution of the effect and how can we maximize the impact.
The following are some lessons learned;
- Each additional voice is creating a bit of momentum and entrenching and deepening the effect.
- The aggressors are afraid from the voice, so the voice is counted. They are using threatening to mute the people to eliminate this momentum.
- There is a critical mass and the point to reach this critical mass to influence and to impact.
- Widen the audience base as you could to increase the possibility of influence.
- The communication channels are, internet based, TV-based, Press, Cell phones.
- In the struggle for a major cause you need to use all these channels.
- Use each single avenue of communication since you can afford to loose any possible mementum.
Social networking
Facebook someday will be like O2 or AT&T where will be the communication company through the internet for the full multimedia communication. The smart phones and the mobile access to the internet will boost the accessibility to the social networking.

Value of blogging..organizing my thoughts...stimulating my mind
New money resolution
Statistics
Statistics is amazing tool where we can discover a lot of hidden patterns and relationships either causations or correlations between the different variables. The value of statistics increase whenver we don't have full understanding about the underlying dyanmics and the underlying dertminsitic math governing the phenomenon. Only statistics in this situation can convert all these tons of data in more meaningfull and understood information.
The progress of a country can be measured by their progress in statistics. The key principal value and objective about statistics is the measurement which is the inital process in any imprevement and in any planning.
As LEAN procedures state that the first task to improve any process is to measure. Statistics as well is about measurement.
Each society whould have huge statistical database and the all planning should be based on it.
Good progress in my resolutions
In the weekend I already executed some of the listed tasks like the payslip spreadsheet to track my income salary. This byitself includes several valuable and positive values. Firstly I benifited from my friend advise when he told me he is doing that since a long time now and it was so efficient process for him whewre he can estimate and evluate each single item in his payslip. I was almost illiterate about some of the items in my payslip as part of my financhial illiteracy and as part of the major nagtive point of money illitaracy an dmany careless and money non appreciation attitude.
I consider this step is a major step really in my life to cure this negative point and part of the psychological treatment.
I remember since I was hired as an employee 11 years ago I was the last one who counts his salary where I was paid by cash at this time and not deposited in my bank account.
The same habit was there.
So that's why I'm so satisifed now about initiating this process and I'm really cosnidering it major step.
I will improve and devlop this spreadsheet by the time and I will link it with the aother spreadsheet to be created about my expenses.
My long objectives to have full complete personal finaince and accounting system to track all my financhial life.
Portability
So
iPhone
iPad
iPod
MP3 Player
all of them are targeting the key selling point which is portability where portability is directly correlated to productivity in our mind.

Microscopic analysis for each of my life aspects
Now ignorance is not accepted and I have to operate my head on every single aspect of my life and each single task I'm doing.
Anatomizing and scrutinzing my personality
Anatomizing and scrutinzing my personality
Personalizing my blog and self centering my consciouness
Self-respect
1) Healthy life, where I deicded to regularly exercise and being in Balikpapn for this bussiness trip will be good chance to intensify my workout sessions and to get rid from this ugly tiny belly.
2) I want to increase as well the frequency of taking scientific notes related to my work. Though till now I'm not succesfull to maximize the rate and frequency but I will certainly do that at once by more commitment and raising its priority relative to other recreational staff.
3) Achieving my idea about video recording some know-hows of the upstream oil and gas softwares and publishing them on the internat. I'm really enthusiastic about the idea to contribute in democratising the knowledge. I will do it for two applications now DUG and OpendTect.

Work assignments are scientific research for me
New idea, don't ignore because it might be the next million dollar idea.
Passion about innovative and creative ideas
Take care about this emerging passion like very soft growing infant
Passion for recording them, then do it , don't damp yourself.
This may create the promising idea about audiovideo library for Geoscience and upstream softwares where the textual description of the manual will be totally replaced by video recording.
Materialize your ideas to something valuable
Like submitting them to Intouch or publishing paper just to conclude something tangeible and called achievement for your ideas and effort.
Ideas for investment
First idea; consulting services for the open source development. this could cover the support and services for several open source packages or ecosystems or development kits or API so working asapplication serviceprovider. So we have now several open. The scope of this consulting firm can manage all these development kit for the upstream EP.
Understand the idea and innovate it and program it.
It may suggest as well workflow.
So the client has the workflow. I will streamline their workflow.
So for example let's identify thier bottlenicks and we will streamline it.
Or let's get user feedback about requested enhacements and let's survey them about the most important ones and this will be programmed.
LEt's understand the user problems and time saving and effort saving.
Programming Cycle Time
Can we really convert the programming environment to opensource and everyone can do his programming. Can we program our workflow steps and generalize them to general data type.
The cycle time between the idea and the program is the innovation.

Threatened by our ignorace
So the response should be on the contrary. like what?
It is new opportuity to learn something new. This is golden opportunity to utilize my head in new hoirozn and I will cease this ooprtunity. I really feel gratefull that I've this chance and I will overuse to get the most out of it.
I will have chance as well to expand the technology to new territory.
Aggregating the knowledge
Passion for Deep thinking about eachtopic and subject in mu life
It is becoming like mission of my life an this was drasti and dramatic transition of my life from the superfacial engagement and careless and unserious engagement with any subject and the shallow appraoch and the low effort and the careless approach to the serious engagement.
I head today in the Sony ads that taking care about the details leads to the perfection.
Sciecne investigation is all about details and thinking about the micro-details of the subject.
That's what I will do.
So for example, Let's examplify things because bastracts are easily forgettable. When you examplify things and put them in very details roadmap and very details steps youwill be able to achieve them.
Like checklist for the safety and all these details instructions.
So you received request from the user about OFM plugin.
Put your head into each word came out from him, like OFM, plugins, OFM-Petrel workflows, production optimization, well trajectories, and think deeply about each one of them as complete subject and even read about them where this deep thinking about each point is creating huge curiosity and can be filled about continuing the effort to respond to this curiosity.
Another passion is expanding the territory of the technology and the smart best practices by encouraging the user more by showing him the value of implementing that in his daily life and saving his effort to more smart tasks.Finally inovative solutions in our knowledge base and really creative and innovative ideas to the other community. That's exactly whatI'm looking after.
Grwo those passions
Grow increasingly and exponentially those passions.
Passions for Reading national geographic. Grow these passion day by day. Don't ever damp yourself. Keep doing it. Dedicate the time for it. Continue till it became deep habit in your soul.
Passion for Deep thinking in my work assignments. It is about exploring everyday new horizons and new piece of land and information. It is about fitting the puzzle together piece by piece and bit by bit.
So I found joyfull and happiness in doing that by this deep thinking I really enjoyed going deeply in understanding things to the fundamental level of it. I hate now this superfacial and shallow engagement of it.
Innovation passion and creativeideas passion.
Organizational skills passion
Information passion and information hungry passion.
Excerise passion and fit passion.
Gadget passion andtechnology passion.
Expanding the territory of technology and knowledge passion.
Work Assignment..Think Deeply
Deep and grasp understanding about the all aspects of your work task.
Innovative approach for doing it
Perfect accomplishment of the task in hand.
Maximize and enrish and expand our knowledge about it widely.
Deep thinking about it to the fundamental core and the fundamental elements of the case.
Each tiney single word will be analyzed and comprehended and expanded to the wider knowledge.
Scoping my blogging pages
Firstly to imporve my english fluency avd writing. This by itself is a major value in my life where the impact is tremendous and significat. Bloggin is the excellent practice area for my writing skills and written communication skills. No wonder that the the written communication skills are essential skills and qualification required by the companies because of many works tasks are depending on the writing either the business writing or the technical writing.
Business writing in the form of emails or reports and the technical writing in the form of technical reports or papers.
Another point for blogging is the career journalng where I'm reocrding and commenting on my work activities and work problems and issues but not from ht etechnical point of view. This helps me in my career planing, trigger my mind to think about my career. Again this is very valuable in the career planning in the short and the mid/long term planning.
