Lucky Me?
I've never had a fruitful relationship wif
luck.
When something bad happens to me....luck would always be one of the main contributing factors...in this case, bad luck.
When something good happens...it's always good luck!
So luck becomes an easy excuse if ever I need to describe my failings and successes. If I fail....it'll be "no luck" or "bad luck"......and I succeed in something..."good luck" would be the main factor.
I used to think that luck is closely associated with fate. If I am fated to achieve success, then good luck is "automatically" bestowed upon me by the powers that be.
But now, not anymore......
After all I've been thru in this rollercoaster life of mine, I realize that luck starts and ends with me. I have to create my own luck.
So to everyone, at a point in time when you feel that success had been achieved and you feel like giving all the credit to the streak of good luck you're in....do take a deep breath, take a step aside and ponder for a moment.....retrace the steps you've taken to get to that point........the paths that you had chosen....the doors you opened....
Not sure if you get my point......but it's all in YOU! Whether you realised it or not.....you're one who took the risks, performed the work needed, opened the doors to be where you are now!
So the next time you achieve success, don't credit good luck! Congratulate and credit yourself for the job well done.....

His Road Trip
In August 2006, a subconscious decision to be involve in a singing competition proved to be the catalyst for a life-changing event in his life. Zai was offered a recording deal that fell through.
For more than eight months, this shy and taciturn amateur musician embarked on a journey of self-discovery and learning: to write, produce and sing, in his debut mini album “KeagunganMu” which was released on 1st September 2007.
A chance encounter with Yazri (Merah) a couple of months later was another turning point in his short music career. Together, they produced a radio single entitled “Lelaki Baru” which debuted on Ria 897FM on 1st September 2008. “Lelaki Baru” was a success and Zai achieved his 1st ever No 1 hit.
Z'Baks Bio
Zaibaktian is devoted to his family and friends first in his life. “One of the most important things that my family and friends has taught me is the value of love,” he says. In his music adventure, Zai explores love as it relates to the most important facets of his life: Family, friendship and faith.
“I started from scratch,” he says, “And the most valuable experience in that is being able to consult musicians with abilities that far surpassed my own to guide me in my music journey.”
On love & life being the major driving force for his music pursuits, Zai aspire to inspire:
“In life, love exist – between God and His creations, for a man and a woman, parents and children, and even between friends,” says Zai. “It is a powerful force, not for its own sake but for how it moves the people who love and the people who are loved.” For Zaibaktian, his music adventure thus far is the fulfillment of a dream and a definite breakthrough in achieving a lifelong dream.
