i can't imagine life without Al-Quran

I can't imagine life without Al-Quran.
Al-Quran literally means recitation. Al-Quran is holy book of Muslims by Allah to the Prophet Muhammad. We as Muslims believe that the Qur'an is spoken directly by God to the Prophet Muhammad through the angel Gabriel, gradually over 22 years, 2 months and 22 days, or an average of 23 years, starting from the 17th of Ramadan, when the Prophet was 40 years until his death in 632.

I, as a Muslim, can't imagine life without the al-Quran.
Al-Quran with many benefits in life will not be forgotten or abandoned.
I am very grateful to Allah, blessing mercy, I can fell joy of life with Al-Quran. happy when together with Qur'an. heart and soul very peace if reading the Qur'an. very unfortunate if they are Muslim's not heeding the Qur'an and not take benefits the Qur'an in his life.
So many miracles when we are close to the Qur'an often read it, understand it and practice it in our daily life.
I think, what would happen if life without the Qur'an? How is life in the future if no Qur'an as a guide to life?
We live, there must be a hint, like us who want to sea. We will be lost if we do not bring a compass.
Similarly life without the Qur'an, we will be lost.
Especially in this present age, many deviations that occur and we must need guidelines of life, Namely Al-Quran ( for Muslims).

How to Give a Speech

to give a speech we must know the steps.

steps1: preparing the speech  

a) pick you massage.

Your speech should be able to summed up in a sentence, maybe two. 

This is what your speech really boils down to: it's what you'll start off with and what you'll return to at the end.

b)know your audience.

This will determine the entirety of your speech. So know your audience.

c) Don't ruminate about negative thoughts.

Think of what you will gain, overcoming the fear of public speaking.  

d)Research your subject.

If your subject is you, congratulations!But if it's not, get to researching. The pros and the cons!

e) Use stories, humor, and metaphors.

A speech that's full of dull, meaningless statistics and facts probably won't get you anywhere with any audience

f) Use striking adjectives, verbs, and adverbs.

g)Jump right in. 

When a speech goes viral on YouTube, you know it's good

Don't talk about painting -- get right in there and start creating an image for them. They're there for your speech, not how you felt about it or how you feel now. Hook 'em from the get-go by starting strong outta the gate.

h)Write it out. 

Because forming a speech in your head is a lot of work. Write it out, see how it transitions from point to point.

You should have a clear introduction, body, and conclusion

steps2: practicing the speech

a) Write down your main points. 

now that you have everything you want to say figured out (and hopefully on paper), write down your main points. 

Get to the point where you're comfortable delivering it just with the notecard. The more comfortable you are with the speech, the more it'll show when you're delivering it.

b)Memorize it.

If you have it memorized, you can make eye contact with your audience and worry about the icing on the cake, like gestures and inflection. Don't stress if you don't have enough time -- but if you do, take advantage of it. If your mind blanks, you can take a look-see at it and go right where you need to.

c)Deliver it to someone.

Delivering it to someone helps you get used to someone looking at you while you're talking. Public speaking can be pretty terrifying, so having a practice audience will help calm your nerves.

d) Practice in front of the mirror and in the shower.

Really, you should be practicing wherever you can. But these two spots will be particularly useful: Practice in front of the mirror so you can see your body language. and then Practice in the shower.

e) Time it.

You probably have some idea of how long your speech. Try to get it comfortably above the minimum and comfortably below the maximum.

steps3: Delivering the Speech

a) Think about your posture and body language.

Standing like you have a fig leaf over your crotch is not the way to give a captivating speech.Your speech conveys a certain amount of emotion, right? You use your hands every day to express emotion.

b)use props

This should be used carefully, though. Don't whip out a different prop every sentence. Stick to one really effective prop, like the brain.

Use them sparingly, but effectively.

c)Know when and how to use pictures.

A powerpoint can be a great addition to a speech (for certain topics, at least).

Use graphs to illustrate your points, especially if they're hard to understand. Pictures can be more memorable than just being told factoid, regardless of how pivotal it may be.
    Don't face the pictures when you're talking! 

d) Select people in your audience, don't scan.

Make eye contact with a person over here, a person over there, etc. Draw them in one at a time instead of making them all feel glossed over. 

e) Vary your tone.

. In general, sure, you should talk at a calm, understandable rate and speak with clarity.  Show emotion in your tone, don't be afraid to chuckle a bit or show a bit of grief or frustration. You're human. Your audience is looking for a human connection, not a robot spitting words at them.   

f) Don't forget about pauses!

There's just as much power in the pauses as there is in the words.Take your speech and literally write in the pauses if it'll help you. Once you have it down, you'll be able to feel where the pauses will go.

g)Conclude by restating your message and saying a simple, "Thank you."

You've gone through the speech, and now it's time for your conclusion. Keep it to the point, lock eyes with the audience, thank them, smile, and get off the stage.

Finish, and good luck to give a speech :)

  

     

   

Cooking is my favorite

Assalamualaikum guys. I want to tell you a little about the skills that I have. No, actually not skill, but more favorite only :D

 well, now I'll tell you a little about my favorite in cooking. Cooking is a must for women, why? Because the woman is future wife to husband and children. That is why women should be able to cook, in order to revive her husband and children. heheh
Okay, cooking is my favorite time of high school. Cooking for me is very pleasant. Although some people say the cooking was not pleasant, because dealing with a stove, cooking utensils, and certainly her cooking is very troublesome and discolor the kitchen alone. But for lovers of cooking it is a natural thing, and even got used to things related to cooking. Time of my old high school very often cooks at home, even though I cook is not cooking restaurant. I'm trying to cook a very simple meal beforehand. Try the little things as a beginner. Time high school I had dreams of becoming a chef, because of my love of cooking. Try to imagine it has a restaurant and become a chef therein. It's nice to think I was. For now I am still trying to learn to cook again, so that later can become a chef reliable. Aamiin
My passions in cooking I have not applied anywhere, I just cook at home usually. And sometimes I'm not in the mood to cook. Cooking just my activities at home and also just helping the mother at home.
For now, I'd like to improve my cooking. In syaa Allah, one day I would become a reliable and well-known chef. Aamiin.

Enough until here and thank you :)  "this is just a story that is not really a special skill that I have". heheh
Wassalamualaikum.
