Eyesight VS Foresight! 視力與視野!

Image
I've been waiting for it for the longest time! After Tortor evolved into a butterfly and flew off, I've been looking foward to another caterpillar on our plant everyday! So, this morning, when Mum shouted, "The caterpillar is eating up my plant again!", I was so excited and ran out to look at my new pet and my sister, Qiqi commented, "Who waits for caterpillar and keep as pet?" Well, my answer was, "I didn't see a caterpillar, I saw a butterfly!" That makes me thought of what my super idol leader shared over the weekend. Most of us have eyesight, but not all of us have foresight. When something is presented before your eyes, do you see it in the state it presents itself or you can see what comes after that or where this is bringing you? You possess eyesight, but do you have foresight? 我等你等了好久! 自從陀陀化為花蝴蝶飛走後,我每天都盼望我們家的盆栽會出現下一隻毛毛蟲! 所以,今天早上當媽媽嚷嚷著,"毛毛蟲快把我的葉子吃完了!”,我興奮地衝出去迎接我的新寵物。 我妹妹,琪琪開口問,“誰會等待毛毛蟲把它當作寵物?” 我的回...

Success is all about TEAMWORK! 成功的關鍵就在團隊合作!

26/02/17 :- Success is all about TEAMWORK! 成功的關鍵就在團隊合作! I'm not supposed to be dragon boating, because my bazi says I should avoid water. I am an introvert, I'm not into sales and probably won't do well in it, so I should not be in MA. Well, but to change, you have to step out of your comfort zone. Push through the challenges and obstacles, you would emerge a better person! Through the dragon boat training, I've seen many similarities with MA. Being in the sport, all the team members are in the same boat with one goal in mind. So is being in MA, we are one team, one dream. In dragon boat, there's only one correct way to paddle and all we have to do is to master that one way. Then rowing would be a breeze and you don't feel so shagged after the race. However, it takes time to master that ONE way. Just like in MA, there's only one way to do this business and that is the MA's way. If we are able to understand the wh...

Finish what you started! 有始有終!

12/01/17 :- Finish what you started! 有始有終! Chapter 15 of  Why We Want You To Be Rich" by Donald J.Trump and Robert T.Kiyosaki - What did you learn from your mother? Finish what you started! In my younger days, I've started many things and gave up half way. If not for Mum, I would not be able to drive my car around now. I passed my TP on my 3rd try. I was ready to throw in the towel after I failed the 2nd time. I'm truly grateful for her encouragement back then. Ever since then, I always remember the feeling of passing my TP. Whenever I feel like giving up on things I've started, I remind myself how it would feel like if I do not give up and carry on trying till I succeed. I enjoy having success and even crave for it. Challenges are fun to me, breaking records get me going. However, since I try my best not to give up what I've started, I've also learnt to take on my tasks with caution. If I know or predict that I would n...

離家,是為了回家。。。We left home seeking to return one day…

Image
22/11/16 :- 離家,是為了回家。。。 We left home seeking to return one day… 今天聽了夥伴的夢想板,感觸良多。 加上回想起上個星期六,帶了母親一同去參加女神,董宥均的地方研討會,眼淚不禁在眼眶打滾。 当下,就想到這句話,“離家,是為了回家。。。” 有多少親人朋友從馬來西亞來到新加坡工作,為的就是能賺多一點錢拿回家讓家人過好日子。 但是,甚麼是好日子?錢,要賺多少才夠? 之前就看了一份報導,如果說你每三個月回家一次,假設你父母還有三十年與你一同共度,是否發現你只能多見他們120? 那么,在假設每一次回家三天,其實你剩下與他們相處的日子只剩360天,比一年還少! 我們很多人都很安逸,尤其是居住在新加坡的我們。 大多數人,從沒想過,有一天你的老闆可以毫無理由叫你馬上收拾走人。 試想,頓時你會變成怎麼樣? 是否,已經做好準備,有了備胎? 就算有的話,是否足夠? 沒有人想要失敗,但是卻有很多人不願付出努力去爭取自己想要的。 沒有一件事是容易的,但是你真的要沒有嗎? 如果,現在放棄了與家人的相處是為了將來所有的時間都能陪他們,你是否願意? 但是,以這些放棄的時間來打工,加班,光做一些沒有產值的事,到頭來很抱歉,你或許與家人的時間已到此為止。 當你父母離開後,若你也有自己的家庭,依然重複你這幾年在做的事,你只會得到同樣的結果。 每天都走同樣的路,永遠不能帶你到不同的地方。 在你離開的時候,你的孩子也即將重複你的一生。。。 今天的你,是否在為將來奮鬥,所做的一切是否能為你帶來財富,時間自由,健康的體魄來陪伴你的家人? 若還沒有,是時候好好深思這問題了。。。 我感恩自己已經做好準備並為母親與我未來的小家庭努力奮鬥。 家族翻身從小小的我開始。。。 Heard our partner shared her dream board today, emotions filled my heart. To add on, I have just brought my Mum along to attend my goddess, Stacy Tung's local seminar over the weekends, tears welled up i...

Pressure and Resistance - 壓力與阻力

壓力是推動力! Pressure motivates people! 阻力是爆發力! Resistance creates power! 19/08/16 :- 壓力是推動力, 阻力是爆發力! Pressure motivates people, resistance creates power! Do you work well under pressure? What do you do when you are faced with resistance? I used to be boiled down by pressure. In the past, with a little resistance, I tend to quit. However, due to experience and perhaps as age catches up, things are no longer the same for me now. Most importantly, I am currently hanging out with the right groups of positive people. With the awesome energy and right attitude, I move forward with direction. Though it may not be easy now, I know in time to come, all these is going to be worthwhile. What do you do when you get cold water splashed over you nearly every week or every now and then? Do you get discouraged or move on? You are the only person who can fight on for your own success. Similarly, you are the only one who can decide that you should fail. Do not let others de...

Whatever you do, it will eventually affect those around you - Choose wisely! 你所做的,終究會影響到身邊的人 - 謹慎地作選擇!

She has been the best supporter for 4 years. 她已當了我這 4 年來的最佳支持者。 31st July 2016 marks my 5th year in helping to raise funds and create awareness for the children at Children Cancer Foundation by taking part in Hair for Hope. However, my Mum has decided to join me for the first time! I'm truly so proud of her! Just last week, I had dinner and a heart to heart talk with my lyrics classmate, Christine aka Shang Rui. Few years back, she decided to come and work here in Singapore. Initially, her parents objected strongly. However, seeing the positive changes in her whole family ever since she came here, she never regretted making that decision. This was what she said, "I never expect the little decision which I made will affect my family members that much." She said something else which my idol, Stacy Tung has mentioned before too, "If by working harder, my parents/Mum can enjoy more and faster, I am willing to do just that." Coinciden...

Who are you accountable for? 你對誰有責任?

Image
16/04/16 :- Who are you accountable for? 你對誰有責任? I've invited my whole family to be present during my 1st dream board presentation, . For a simple reason; my dreams are all about them. Since young, other than being a devoted guy in love, I'm well known for my short span interest in other stuff and give up easily. That was why I've choose to invite my family to the presentation, it's like letting my team be the witness for my promise to them. Many would have heard the analogy of doing the same thing for 21 days and it would become a habit. The chances of giving up after that get reduced significantly. Since 01st Aug 2015, after I've make an important decision to start planning for myself and change the life I am leading with the actions I've started to take, my family has gotten used to the changed me. Going out till at least 10pm to fight hard for my dreams after I've knocked off from my day job has become a norm to my family members. Howev...

Words - Make or break! 言語 - 廉價的代價!

Image
19/03/16 :- Words - Make or break! 言語 - 廉價的代價! Words which you said, can make or break somebody. Sometimes, it is just for that moment. Most of the times, it lasts for a lifetime. From "Men are Lunatics, Women are Nuts", it was said that the average woman speaks around 5000 words per day whereas the average male speaks around 2000. How many of those words do we actually remember? How much do we prepare ourselves before speaking them? More often than not, we do not remember what we said nor do we have any preparation before speaking them. Yet, we neglect the effect it would have on the listener. Throughout my life, I've heard many things which others have unintentionally spoken. However, they have a deep impact on me till now. As I have been motivated by the positive feedback and was disappointed at the negative comments given, as far as I can, I try my best to only speak of positive encouraging words to people around me now. Howeve...

Robert Kiyosaki LIVE in Singapore!

To achieve success, you must be willing to grow and change to become who you need to be. ~Robert Kiyosaki 为了取得成功,你必须愿意成长与改变,进而成为你需要成为的人。~罗伯特清崎 Went for Masters of Wealth seminar yesterday at RWS, Sentosa. I love seminars like these where you learn a great deal from most of the invited speakers. Here's sharing some of the important learning points I took back from the seminar :- Financial freedom is like a soccer game; play it as early as you can. Do not wait till you are 40 to start playing. The golden years where you are young and fast would have been over. It would then be a struggle for you to be financially free. PLAY FAST AND PLAY HARD before it's GAME OVER and the CHANCE IS OVER! Actions determine who you are and words describe who you want to be. Fear is a choice, we need to stay focused and stop procrastinating. If you have no money, you don't wait till you have money to take actions. That day would never come. Go out and take actions to earn your...
