<br />
Part of her training was for the trainer to share his methods of earning a million dollars at a rate of x times.<br />
<br />
He began by asking the participants whether they would want a million dollars? The training room was silent for several moments.<br />
<br />
The trainer asked again,<br />
<br />
"Would any of you like to have a million dollars in your hands RIGHT NOW?".<br />
<br />
There was a slight murmur, but no one put their hands up.<br />
<br />
Then, the trainer whipped out a dollar note and waved it in the air and asked the question whether anyone would like to have this dollar in his hand, please put up your hand. A few hands shot up and the trainer than proceeded to walk up to the fastest individual who shot his hand up and he got that one dollar.<br />
<br />
"Would anyone like to have five dollars?" asked the trainer and now many more hands shot up and the trainer proceeded to give his five dollars to the one who shot his hand up the fastest.<br />
<br />
And, this went on for ten, twenty, fifty and a hundred dollars. The training room was in a frenzy!<br />
<br />
After he gave the one hundred dollars to a very enthusiastic participant, the trainer asked everyone to calm down. Then, he asked, if anyone would like a million dollars and proceeded to wave an envelope in the air. The training room erupted into chaos! The trainer asked that everyone please be seated as he has spotted someone who shot her arms up the fastest and went over to her to bring her up on stage. The trainer led her to a chair and he sat opposite her. He than asked her what she would do with it. She described what she is going to do with it and she smiled widely. There were even tears in her eyes.<br />
<br />
The trainer than hand out that envelope to her and she took it BUT the trainer did not let go. He than asked why should he give her that million dollars and why did she deserve it? And what has she done to deserve that million dollars.<br />
<br />
The trainer eventually did give that envelope to her but asked her not to open it yet. He than surprised everyone that every participant in the room is going to get an envelope that (supposedly) contain a million dollars. The trainer asked that every participant promised not to open the envelope until he gave the signal to open it.<br />
<br />
After the signal was given, every participant opened the envelope and what they saw was this:<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
The question, is:<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>How did the participants reacted? </li>
<li>Were they pleased? </li>
<li>Were they angry? </li>
<li>Were they reflective? </li>
<li>Were they surprised? </li>
</ol>
<br />
<br />
Then, the trainer began to explain the whole "game".ABHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00398722644526459728noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6896298459550876128.post-64979994042275139152015-12-13T18:03:00.001+08:002015-12-13T18:04:42.919+08:00I Found A Magic Button! <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Folks!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, I think that I should create a Successful Time Table:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Of course, this is just a guide and I am determined to do what I have listed. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now, a <b>S.M.A.R.T.</b> goal comes to mind. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ok, that will be next. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hmmm..... am I procrastinating? </span><br />

<br />
I have this habit of using only $300.00 on food and drink per month. Which means that, I'd only spend $10.00 per day. If I have any extra for that month, I'll keep that money for my savings.<br />
<br />
This year, today, I took out the usual $300.00 for the month of January 2014, and I looked at my ATM Transaction Receipt.<br />
<br />
Then a wish came to me, that if I could, I would want $596.98 turn to $596,980.00!<br />
<br />
Is this possible?<br />

<br />
I came across a unique marketing tool that uses a fake USD 1 Million dollar notes as flyers or name cards.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDH0YwS5R9fniOc6MlxATSUFxmdIbIZS2zcG-Hq5Bv_2FSmUyTvGSmSnwxzAHJlFcRK7NEahARYrgKTmzPoJjBZzKvOJsTofOi8MsC_UfTIqyM04fpSX91a0NHRgHYZiJPvklah6p49dM/s1600/million(front).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDH0YwS5R9fniOc6MlxATSUFxmdIbIZS2zcG-Hq5Bv_2FSmUyTvGSmSnwxzAHJlFcRK7NEahARYrgKTmzPoJjBZzKvOJsTofOi8MsC_UfTIqyM04fpSX91a0NHRgHYZiJPvklah6p49dM/s1600/million(front).jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I got these images many years ago from a website of a company that would print them for you with the marketing slogan of your choice or even made them blank so that you could use your own printer to print them yourself. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
At that time, the printing company would print and ship them out to you at 50 cents a piece and they'd only take minimum orders of 250 pieces. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So, what I did was I took the 2 images I got from their website and erase the words out so that I get the picture below. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgA4rTqNcG0itqKGcUmRG6uusVuBJ2z28O1jfgpwCMrBMT_SuqKu0Y7ydRuxz8jU0VBrXUQRlpz3LMfYHqpSCWwu0OsPJXYvZrvoZIUXBuXR6LL8-YTr0O9aCnXpvokfxJ5KpvX5YQ5FAI/s1600/million(back)_blank.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgA4rTqNcG0itqKGcUmRG6uusVuBJ2z28O1jfgpwCMrBMT_SuqKu0Y7ydRuxz8jU0VBrXUQRlpz3LMfYHqpSCWwu0OsPJXYvZrvoZIUXBuXR6LL8-YTr0O9aCnXpvokfxJ5KpvX5YQ5FAI/s1600/million(back)_blank.JPG" /></a></div>
<br />
Than I use Microsoft word to paste 4 of the images on one page, and type the words that I wanted on the back of the fake notes and used a good color laserjet printer to print them on an A4 sized paper on the front and on the back.<br />
<br />
You can do the same for yourself with the pictures that I have provided here.<br />
<br />
Cheers!<br />

<br />
Sometimes, we need to reflect in order for us to know whether we are moving closer to our goals.<br />
<br />
It is what a pilot of a ship would do as he steers his ship towards his objective.<br />
<br />
Reflections is like the pilot looking at his compass and make small changes or 'trims' so that he does not go off course.<br />
<br />
Here is a list of 20 questions that everyone interested in personal development should ask oneself every Sunday so that he knows that he is moving towards his goals and not away from it and does some trimmings in order to steer his energies and focus towards his outcome.<br /><br />

<span style="color: #343434; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Georgia;">At the cusp of new beginnings many
of us take time to reflect on our lives by looking back over the past and ahead
into the future. We ponder the successes, failures and standout events
that are slowly scripting our life’s story. This process of self
reflection helps maintain a conscious awareness of where we’ve been and where
we intend to go. It is pertinent to the organization and preservation of
our dreams, goals and desires.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
I found out that I seem to update my Facebook more than I update my Blog.<br />
<br />
So, go to my Facebook: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/aliefhamdani">www.facebook.com/aliefhamdani</a> for near daily updates.<br />
<br />
This blog will still record my Journal of Earning Consistent 4 Figure Income per Month from the Internet.<br />
<br />
I found out this year that the average income of Singaporeans is $3,070.00 per month or $36,840.00 per year.<br />
<br />
It appears that I am earning below this; thus I am a below average earner.<br />
<br />
By, God! May I find "hidaya" that it is not the money that I earn that will sustain me; but Allah (swt).<br />
<br />
I once heard that Allah does not care if a man is rich or poor in material wealth but He raise the man's status because of his knowledge and his "eeman".<br />
<br />
May Allah shows us The Guidance to the Way.<br />
<br />
Ameen!<br />
<br />

One whole year of not posting anything on my Blog! <br />
<br />
<br />
Well, 1 year and 6 days... But who is REALLY counting, eh?<br />
<br />
<br />
Actually, it was my goal of 2011 of not posting anything on my Blog. Just to see if I could do it. <br />
<br />
<br />
I guess that it is possible. Ha ha ha...<br />
<br />
<br />
Funny that if it was a goal like this, I can do it; but if it was a goal of making a five figure income doing something I love, I bet I'd fail!<br />
<br />
<br />
Imagine that I set a goal that is like this one - not posting anything on the Internet - and it is to earn five figure income every month for the rest of my life, wouldn't that be peachy, eh? <br />
<br />
<br />
I tested something out this morning as I performed some prayers and I told myself that this is a stupid life, over and over again, and that I was feeling stupid, breathing in the stupid air, listening to the stupid noise of the MRT, etc etc... Basically saying to myself that everything that I am experiencing is stupid, therefore, I am having a stupid life. <br />
<br />
<br />
Then, I switched the word stupid with <b>blessed</b>, and something something strange started to happen. <br />
<br />
<br />
I started feeling blessed. <br />
<br />
<br />
I was beaming! <br />
<br />
<br />
A smile developed on my face. <br />
<br />
<br />
Everything looked clear as if a fog has been lifted. <br />
<br />
<br />
Is this THE secret? <br />
<br />
<br />
THen one thing leads to another and then I remembered the story of The Blessed Tree.<br />
<br />
<br />
It is on my Facebook(www.facebook.com/aliefhamdani) and Please go there to read more about it. <br />
<br />
<br />
Ironically, the pictures that I posted on Facebook is a tree that if full of green leaves. The video on YouTube with the imminent Islamic Scholars and Thinkers shows a tree with just a few leaves. <br />
<br />
<br />
I wonder if this means something?<br />
<br />
<br />
This tree out in the middle of a God forsaken desert symbolizes a witness to the existence of The Seal of The Prophets. <br />
<br />
That this tree once took over the task of the cloud that was providing shade to someone of great importance. <br />
<br />
<br />
That this tree once feared is now reveared and God let it lived until this day to provide a witness to His Grace and Mercy. <br />
<br />
<br />
May we, ourselves, be like this tree: Responsible, Resilient, Rare. <br />
<br />
<br />
Welcome, 2012! I await the date, December 12th! <br />
<br />
<br />
May God have mercy on our souls!<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
IF BEING a mother is like running a company, then the end of the year is probably a good time to release one’s annual report.<br />
<br />
This year, Manic Mummy Corporation is proud to announce a profit of x units of happiness.<br />
<br />
Productivity is up, with the full deployment of an extra employee named Lucien, aged 14 months, taking staff strength to a total of two. The company invested 100 per cent of its output in staff welfare and development. This investment is expected to mature in 18 years.<br />
<br />
Among the senior management, there has been some reshuffling: Co-founder and chief executive Manic Mummy expanded her portfolio this year to include finance and public relations (that is, she took a parttime job outside the home); co-founder and president Supportive Spouse has been promoted to group chairman as a result of a popular vote by the workers’ union.<br />
<br />
This internal shake-up resulted in some rumbling among the employees at first – some warnings, suspensions and other disciplinary action had to be meted out.<br />
<br />
But, fortunately, nobody was dismissed or retrenched.<br />
<br />
In any case, our employees – who require the bosses to serve them, and not the other way round – have tenure and cannot be fired for life.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, the star performer of the company, one Julian, aged 4 1 /2 years, has won himself a corporate scholarship to kindergarten next year.<br />
<br />
He will be on study leave, but is expected to still supervise Lucien and helm departments such as Practical Jokes, Silly Gags andWisecracks.<br />
<br />
In the year 2011, the corporation is confident of generating revenue in excess of y units of joy. Operating costs, however, are expected to go up exponentially, as employees have indicated a preference for more sophisticated equipment like Training Organised Yard Supplies (Toys).<br />
<br />
To answer queries from interested shareholders, we are enforcing a hiring freeze, as two employees seem an optimum number.<br />
<br />
Manic Mummy Corporation remains devoted to offering the best in cutting-edge, original motherhood research and experimental methods – ranging from how to entertain a kid who complains he is bored every two minutes, to how to ignore him.<br />
<br />
Along the way, the chairman and CEO have learnt a few valuable lessons about human resource:<br />
Be very patient with your employees. Ours are more accurately termed “juvenile interns”, as<br />
they are highly unskilled; come with no contracts, manuals or guarantees; are prone to breaking down frequently; and respond only to repeated, specific instructions.<br />
<br />
But some soft coaxing can go a long way with them.<br />
<br />
The carrot and the stick must be used in tandem.<br />
<br />
Here at Manic Mummy Corporation, our staff package and benefits are more generous than those of many rival companies, but we can also come down like a ton of bricks on employees who seriously offend.<br />
<br />
Fine-tuning and balancing the use of incentives and corrective actionmust be a top priority.<br />
<br />
Pleasing the public and other shareholders (for example, caregivers, relatives, friends and teachers) can be tricky. Often, they have conflicting advice and opinions on how to stop the employees from revolting.<br />
<br />
Take feedback on board, but do not be afraid to steer an unpopular course.<br />
<br />
Foster a stick-like-glue mentality in every member of your organization.<br />
<br />
Each person is responsible for the conduct of another’s. United we stand, divided we fall.<br />
<br />
There is only so much you can delegate.<br />
<br />
Rare is the company leader who can go it alone. Appreciate your co-founder and partner.<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading and supportingManicMummy Corporation.We look forward to serving you further next year.<br />

I read with shock that John Reese(the guy pictured above), the Internet Marketing world version of Roger Banister, of the 4 minute mile, has abandoned his Internet Marketer's dream lifestyle to a life of a Minimalist!<br />
<br />
His worldly possessions is now packed in this:<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;">I'll admit it. I'm a bit weird. I always have been. ;)<br />
<br />
And maybe you are too, and that's what makes us<br />
"special." Or at least that's what our moms always<br />
told us.<br />
<br />
I like doing "experiments" on myself. I think it's<br />
a great way to grow as a person and to learn more<br />
about yourself -- which can help in one's personal<br />
or business life.<br />
<br />
I once read how Leonardo Da Vinci slept only<br />
about 3-4 hours a day by taking short 20-45 minute<br />
naps throughout a 24 hour cycle.<br />
<br />
Many years ago, I tried my own sleep experiment<br />
after I found myself pulling a lot of "all nighters."<br />
<br />
I decided to go every other night without sleep.<br />
<br />
So I would stay awake for stretches of 30-35 hours<br />
straight and then crash for 9-12 hours. I got a lot<br />
of work done by doing this.<br />
<br />
And I was able to do this for about 3 months straight -<br />
sleeping only every other night.<br />
<br />
There was only one problem... it put me in the hospital.<br />
<br />
It had weakened my immune system and I ended up<br />
with a bad case of vertigo. Horrible, horrible stuff.<br />
I was basically DIZZY all day, everyday, for about<br />
2 weeks until it finally went away.<br />
<br />
So I, obviously, went back to a normal sleep schedule<br />
and refused to pull "all nighters" anymore. I had bad<br />
insomnia for a long time but eventually got over it.<br />
<br />
If you're pulling all nighters and going without sleep,<br />
I recommend you don't. It's just not worth the damage<br />
it can do to your health.<br />
<br />
But I've done many other "full immersion" types of<br />
experiments on myself over the years, and most of<br />
them didn't have bad health results - thankfully. :)<br />
<br />
My point is... you can learn a lot about yourself if<br />
you take yourself out of your normal comfort zone<br />
and really 'challenge' yourself by trying little experiments<br />
and personal challenges.<br />
<br />
AND I'M DOING IT AGAIN.<br />
<br />
Check this out...<br />
<br />
I just finished selling (or giving away) all of my personal<br />
possessions.<br />
<br />
Not too long ago my life consisted of a massive 6-bedroom<br />
house (with many rooms I never even went into!) and<br />
5 cars. Yes, FIVE cars. I'm a car guy, what can I say. ;)<br />
<br />
I had accomplished what many consider to be the<br />
"American Dream." I had the huge house and all the<br />
toys. The Lamborghini, Ferrari, BMWs, a Rolex<br />
collection, an expensive wardrobe, amazing furniture,<br />
a massive home theater, a 1,000 gallon saltwater<br />
aquarium, the works.<br />
<br />
And now I have NONE of it. And I'll explain why in<br />
a moment...<br />
<br />
Here are some "quick facts"...<br />
<br />
For the first time in over 20 YEARS...<br />
<br />
- I don't own a car.<br />
<br />
- I don't own any furniture.<br />
<br />
- I don't own a TV.<br />
<br />
- I don't own any books.<br />
<br />
- I don't own a huge closet full of clothes.<br />
<br />
AND...<br />
<br />
- I don't have a HOME. Not a house,<br />
or apartment, or anything.<br />
<br />
By now you're probably thinking...<br />
<br />
"John, what the hell are you doing!?"<br />
<br />
I decided to do all of this because I wanted<br />
to do a new experiment on myself...<br />
<br />
It's a challenge of MINIMALISM.<br />
<br />
If you haven't yet heard about minimalism,<br />
or read anything about it, you should. Not<br />
only can it (I believe) improve the quality<br />
of your life but it can also make your business<br />
a lot more profitable.<br />
<br />
Minimalism is essentially focusing only on<br />
the 3-4 most important things in your life<br />
(or business) and ELIMINATING THE REST.<br />
<br />
There many opinions on minimalism and how<br />
to apply it, and some approach it differently.<br />
Do some Google searches for "minimalism"<br />
and you'll find lots of great blogs about it.<br />
<br />
It's really a growing 'revolution' of sorts.<br />
<br />
I don't agree with everything he teaches, but a<br />
decent book you can read is "The Power Of Less"<br />
by Leo Babauta; and he's someone with 6 kids.<br />
That will get you started.<br />
<br />
Everyone will have their own take on minimalism.<br />
But I'm willing to bet you can benefit from it.<br />
<br />
WHAT I HAVE LEFT...<br />
<br />
So you're probably wondering, if I got rid of<br />
all that stuff, what the heck do I actually have<br />
left? And how will I live?<br />
<br />
Here's a full list of the only things I now own...<br />
<br />
- A small 28L backpack (that holds everything below)<br />
<br />
- 5 t-shirts (4 short sleeve, 1 long sleeve)<br />
- 1 pair of jeans<br />
- 1 light jacket<br />
- 2 pairs of shorts<br />
- 1 pair of running/trek shoes<br />
- 5 pairs of boxer briefs<br />
- Assorted toiletries<br />
- Clothesline & large ziplock bag (for washing clothes)<br />
- 1 MacBook Pro 15"<br />
- 1 64GB Wifi iPad<br />
- 1 iPhone 4<br />
- 1 Livescribe Pen & small notebook<br />
- My passport & credit cards<br />
<br />
THAT'S IT. That's all the 'stuff' I own. ALL OF IT.<br />
<br />
Here's a photo of my backpack (with everything in it)<br />
except for my 15" MacBook Pro which is in the photo next to it:<br />

<br />
But it's also important to note...<br />
<br />
I still have all of my money and investments. I didn't pull<br />
a Christopher McCandless ("Into The Wild") and burn all<br />
of my money. This experiment isn't about that. So I still<br />
have all of my businessess (and their assets) as well as<br />
a valuable .COM collection, etc. etc.<br />
<br />
But as far as personal "things" go, I currently only have<br />
what I listed above. I'll explain more as to the "WHY"<br />
in a just a second...<br />
<br />
WHERE ON EARTH WILL I LIVE?<br />
<br />
The answer is... Everywhere.<br />
<br />
I am just going to travel the world non-stop for awhile.<br />
It may be for a year or for 10+ years. I don't know yet<br />
and that's part of the adventure. I have structured<br />
things so I can travel the world INDEFINITELY and plan<br />
to do so for a very long time.<br />
<br />
As many of my long-time subscribers know, I love to<br />
travel. I've been to every continent in the world except<br />
for Antarctica. (And hope to visit their soon.) But even<br />
as much as I love to travel, I was only taking a few<br />
trips a year. So now that's all going to change.<br />
<br />
BUT TRAVEL ISN'T THE ONLY REASON I'M DOING THIS...<br />
<br />
Here's what I've discovered about myself...<br />
<br />
My level of happiness all comes down to my level of STRESS.<br />
<br />
And my stress level is mostly due to having the feeling<br />
of being OVERWHELMED. I had so many possessions<br />
to manage and so many things going on in my life that it<br />
was making me a bit crazy. (More than I already am.)<br />
<br />
I found that my CREATIVITY has really suffered because<br />
of this. It's like the brain only has so much available RAM<br />
like a computer, and everything we own and do and manage<br />
takes up that space. It doesn't leave a lot of room left for<br />
creativity.<br />
<br />
So essentially, I wanted my brain back.<br />
<br />
I wanted to have what I call "Freedom Of Thought." I want to<br />
have so few distractions and things taking up space in my<br />
brain that I'm free to use as much of my brain as possible to<br />
think of exciting new ideas and fully appreciate new<br />
experiences.<br />
<br />
* I did also realize that all of that "stuff" that I thought was<br />
the "American Dream" was mostly based on EGO. But<br />
that's a discussion for another day.<br />
<br />
As many of my customers already know, late last year I<br />
started a new company to develop Video Games. It's been<br />
a dream of mine for many years and I finally decided to<br />
pursue it. Well, this new business (along with other projects)<br />
really demands maximum creativity from me. So I wanted<br />
to try this new 'experiment' to give myself the best chance<br />
at being able to come up with amazing new ideas.<br />
<br />
AND IT'S ALREADY WORKING.<br />
<br />
I'm currently on Day 3 of my journey. I moved out of<br />
California about a week ago, then spent a few days visiting<br />
my family in Florida, and then 3 days ago I 'officially' set<br />
out on this "Minimalism Adventure" and flew up to<br />
Toronto, Canada (where I am now) to visit my good friend,<br />
Dean Jackson.<br />
<br />
In the first 3 days, I've already come up with some<br />
unbelievable new ideas for my businesses. And this<br />
is only just the beginning.<br />
<br />
I would like to challenge you to look at your business (and life)<br />
and see how you can apply the Pareto Principle (80/20 Rule)<br />
and eliminate the things that aren't essential to your goals --<br />
or things that take away from the more important parts of<br />
reaching your goals.<br />
<br />
I recently deleted my personal Facebook account (that had<br />
5,000 'friends') and it was one of the best things I ever did.<br />
<br />
I was finding that Facebook was one big waste of my time.<br />
I was logging in multiple times a day and it was robbing me<br />
of time I should have been spending on more important<br />
things.<br />
<br />
Don't get me wrong, I think Facebook has decent marketing<br />
uses, but I think for most entrepreneurs it's better used<br />
for brands (with Business Page accounts) than as a personal<br />
account. For me and all of the businesses I am involved<br />
with, Facebook does not fall into the "20" part of the 80/20<br />
rule. PPC, SEO, buying media (which includes Facebook Ads),<br />
and other strategies out-produce it by a massive amount.<br />
But that's a rant for another day. ;-)<br />
<br />
After recently telling someone about what I am doing<br />
they said...<br />
<br />
"But, John, I gotta tell you... it really sounds like you're<br />
just running from life."<br />
<br />
To which I replied...<br />
<br />
"No, you don't understand, I'm running TO life."<br />
<br />
Okay it's time for me to go and pack up my stuff -- even,<br />
though, it only takes me about 5 minutes. ;-)<br />
<br />
I'm heading to Europe for a few months tomorrow as I continue<br />
on my journey.<br />
<br />
I'll be in touch soon.<br />
<br />
Yours For Online Profits,<br />

<br />
Today is the 1st of July, 2010 and it is the first day of the second last quarter of the year.<br />
<br />
Today is going to be the day where I will be more focused on achieving my short term goals(within 3 months) like:<br />
<br />
1. <b>Health </b>- I'm committed to develop a 6 pack abs.<br />
2. <b>Financial </b>- I'm committed to be able to save $1,000.00 per month.<br />
3. <b>Personal Development</b> - I'm committed to be a Certified NLP Practitioner.<br />
4. <b>Business </b>- I'm committed to build a successful education and people development business.<br />
5. <b>Family </b>- I'm committed to spend more quality time with my beautiful wife and daughter by going back to Malaysia 2 times a month.<br />
<br />
Also, part of successfully achieving point number 3, is to complete the 7-Day Mental Diet Challenge that is developed by Adam Khoo of AKLTG.<br />
<br />
It is a 3 part process and one of them is to read aloud the <b>Success Creed</b>:<br />
<br />
<i>I have the power to choose. What I choose in life is what I get.</i><br />
<i>What I think is what I get. I move in the direction of my thoughts.</i><br />
<i>I think I can, I can. I think I cannot, I cannot. </i><br />
<i>I think big, I become big. I think small, I become small.</i><br />
<i>I think positive, I become positive.</i><br />
<i>I think negative, I become negative.</i><br />
<i>I think hate, I become hateful. I think love, I become lovable.</i><br />
<i>I become what I think about. The me I see, the me I will be. </i><br />
<i><br />
</i><br />
<i>For things to change, I must change first.</i><br />
<i>Whatever I can conceive and believe, I can achieve.</i><br />
<i>If it is possible for others, it is possible for me. It is only a </i><br />
<i>question of strategy.</i><br />
<i><br />
</i><br />
<i>I focus on my goals and take action towards them constantly. </i><br />
<i>There is no failure. There is only feedback. </i><br />
<i>I will change my strategy and do whatever it takes to succeed.</i><br />
<i>I will make today much better than yesterday. </i><br />
<i><br />
</i><br />
<i>I shall pass through this world but once. Any good thing that I </i><br />
<i>can do, or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let </i><br />
<i>me do it now and not defer it for I shall not pass this way again. </i><br />
<i><br />
</i><br />
Part 1: I an committed to take 5 minutes to read my <b>goals</b> aloud and with passion.<br />
<br />
Part 2. I am committed to take 5 minutes to read my <b>personal mission statement</b> and the following statements will magnetize my mind towards achieving success.<br />
<br />
A good friend coach of mine has added these statements that will help me further:<br />
<br />
<i>I love and approve of myself and I </i><br />
<i>trust the process of my life.</i><br />
<i>I life in the present moment, joyous and free. </i><br />
<i><br />
</i><br />
Step 3: I am committed to only entertain empowering thoughts that put me into a resourceful state. The moment I have a negative thought/question, I will:<br />
<br />
a) Re-frame it into something empowering.<br />
b) Ask a powerful question to focus on the outcome/solution.<br />
c) Change the sub-modalities/physiology.<br />
<br />
These are things that I am committed to do and I feel that more better opportunities are going to present itself from this time forth and that I only have to simply make an informed choice of what would be the best path to go to.<br />
<br />
If I could not do the above, then the 7-Day Mental Challenge will reset and I will have to start all over again.<br />
<br />
Cool!<br />

<br />
Anyone heard of someone who became a millionaire at the age of 14? <br />
<br />
He calls himself a Reallionaire.<br />
<br />
Check it out:<br />

<br />
Can something like this happen in Singapore? <br />
<br />
It is like a mother's dream, right? <br />
<br />
To bring up a child who made a decision to change his life of poverty to <br />
<br />
a life of plenty. <br />

<br />
Just a "whym" and "fancie" that I write this.<br />
<br />
As I went through a 'participative' session of <a href="http://www.adamkhoo.net/go.php?offer=alief72&pid=8">Patterns Of Excellence</a>(POE) as opposed to a 'coaching' version, I found out that my true powers were still very latent and that I simply need to go let it "flow" that there is enough energy left in me since the "dawn of time" that I can influence change in just about anything or anyone with awareness.<br />
<br />
What a whole bunch of 'gunk' above eh? Ha ha hah....<br />
<br />
During my own Time-Line Re-imprinting, I saw that I was King Leonidas.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwe1FUkHlkjmUEc9fPIIrA7HjPXS_XjAtyaMKRPraz_gErhMfVXdNu1zh3A27OGhD0H9PZJ2CDdbhEeoAKb2s12yDZIn7qGGq8B3xsGfSG_T2YoDwEv63vxIbgi_TBj2gAHItoGy5G_k0/s1600/gerard_butler300.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwe1FUkHlkjmUEc9fPIIrA7HjPXS_XjAtyaMKRPraz_gErhMfVXdNu1zh3A27OGhD0H9PZJ2CDdbhEeoAKb2s12yDZIn7qGGq8B3xsGfSG_T2YoDwEv63vxIbgi_TBj2gAHItoGy5G_k0/s200/gerard_butler300.jpg" width="150" /></a></div><br />
I found out that if I were to go to this "place" I saw that I was on a gold colored road to a building that looked like the Greek's Acropolis, and that the surrounding was a golden stretch of wheat, ready to be harvested.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAYHGIMXR2isBuFj0DG8FYy0v1OIzijCcdhPKnJsWdT1k2d-JsAj5ljwajpeYy27iRMndk-pwQ59r5iVFMQdXjUfcY1lriR4vwp7t3b2FFpz9dH5OnaT7uKIOAsrsfXIOPTLC1GMIcx2E/s1600/acropolis.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="133" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAYHGIMXR2isBuFj0DG8FYy0v1OIzijCcdhPKnJsWdT1k2d-JsAj5ljwajpeYy27iRMndk-pwQ59r5iVFMQdXjUfcY1lriR4vwp7t3b2FFpz9dH5OnaT7uKIOAsrsfXIOPTLC1GMIcx2E/s200/acropolis.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>Acropolis<br />
<br />
</div>It was like a scene from the Gladiator movie where The Gladiator was walking home to his wife and son.<br />
<br />
Mine was similar, but my building was a huge one with greek pillars supporting it's heavy roof; just like the Greek Acropolis.<br />
<br />
When I walked up to it's heavy oak doors, it automatically opened and I saw inside my 300 Spartans all in gear but with their helmets cradled by their sides and all eyes looking at me intently.<br />
<br />
I was so touched by this vision that my current body could not take this and it convulsed with tears and soft weepings.<br />
<br />
In my time-line, I felt brave and proud of my 300 and my Captain; Artemis, calls out to me:<br />
<br />
"Welcome home, oh, our King!"<br />
<br />
More tears and convulsions racked my mortal body.<br />
<br />
I walk towards them and I saw them smiling and nodding their heads with approval as I came closer, and as they part to let me walk through, I was shown my throne made of gold and comfort. The seat, crimson red of unknown origin.<br />
<br />
I walked up to this imminent chair and turned to look at my 300. My brave 300. My lions!<br />
<br />
No need for words as our minds simply linked somehow and we all nod with approval.<br />
<br />
Smiling our appreciation of where we are.... Finally.<br />
<br />
Then I decided to turn towards my Queen's chamber and my 300 went to their own women.<br />
<br />
My Queen and my child. My "Omega" and my R.<br />
<br />
Enough said. Here is where I stop... for now.<br />
<br />

</div><div>Friends,</div><div><br />
</div><div>Imagine that you had to get up at 5:30am everyday and you had to reach work by 7:30am and work ends at 1:00am or 2:00am, everyday. </div><div><br />
</div><div>Would you still continue doing the job?</div><div><br />
</div><div>Imagine that you have only 5 - 10 minutes lunch or dinner and food and water is prepared in plastic lunch-boxes plus boxed soft-drinks.</div><div><br />
</div><div>Would you still continue doing the job?</div><div><br />
</div><div>Imagine that you have to stay back after the participants of the event would go home till 1:00am or 2:00am so that you and the other coachs can discuss in what manner of way can we help them be aware of their de- limitating patterns and how to approach them most effectively so that they will find it within themselves to change. </div><div><br />
</div><div>Imagine that when you did this job, you would have touched the lives of many people in attendance where they will have learnt from you skills that will benefit them in society; for example Speed Reading Skills or Whole Brain note taking strategies or Power of State.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>Would you still continue doing this job? </div><div><br />
</div><div>Imagnine that there would be some participants who, no matter what you did will always return back to their old patterns. </div><div><br />
</div><div>Would you still continue doing the job?</div><div><br />
</div><div>Imagine that you will get very tired, frustrated, hungry, sleepy etc etc in this environment and that may make you want to quit.</div><div><br />
</div><div>Would you still continue doing the job?</div><div><br />
</div><div>Imagine that many participants of such an event would come up to you and thank you for being their Coach of Excellence and that their journey has brought them many learnings and realizations and that what I did, makes a difference in other people's life. </div><div><br />
</div><div>How would you still not do this job?</div><div><br />
</div><div>Today is 8th June 2010 and I have just survived a week of the above mentioned (ie) 2-3 hours of sleep every day since 27th May 2010 until 4th June 2010; which ended at 1:00am. </div><div><br />
</div><div>I had just completed a successful I Am Gifted (IAG) - Junior (Age 7 - 12) Camp at <a href="http://www.akltg.com/">Adam Khoo Learning Technologies(AKLTG) Pte Ltd</a>, and I am feeling so fulfilled and empowered. That at the instant I allow myself to go back to any one of the times that I was there, I would tear.</div><div><br />
</div><div><a href="http://www.akltg.com/">AKLTG </a>is like a second home to me and I consider it as the "safest place on the planet". </div><div><br />
</div><div>It is SANCTUARY to me. </div><div><br />
</div><div>I wish that every man, woman and children would get a chance to enter it's doors and step out an improved person. </div><div><br />

</div><div><div>A person that makes a difference in other people's lives. </div></div><div><br />
</div><div>My mission in life is to improve the quality of other people's lives through acts of courage that is aligned to my childhood dream of becoming a fireman(Captain) when I grow up. </div><div><br />
</div><div>One of the most important values of a fireman is to save as many people's lives when in time of crisis. To allow people closest to death to get a second chance in life. To show them a ladder of opportunity when the building they are in is engulf in flames. </div><div><br />
</div><div>I see myself as that warrior-of-fire where I slice through ignorance, dis-empowerment, and chaos. </div><div><br />

<br />
</div><div>I AM WARRIOR FIRE, WARRIOR A! W.A!</div><div><br />
</div><div>Pehaps that is why when I went thru my time-line re-imprinting, I see through the eyes of King Leonidus and in front of me was my Spartans of 300. </div><div><br />
</div><div>My "teacher" says that that 'dream' was just my representation of what was the real: that is I was The S.A.W. and my 300 was the companions. </div><div><br />
</div><div>That gave me goosebumps!</div><div><br />
</div><div>So, back to the real, I am going to attaract opportunities where I can masterfully serve my abilities to mankind so that they see the path and walk on it boldly and towards the truth. </div><div><br />
</div><div>I must do this and I will begin it with me being at peace with the within and so will the without also be at peace. </div><div><br />

<br />
Here it is:<br />
<br />
<object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9zSVu76AX3I&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9zSVu76AX3I&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />
<br />
And one of his favorite quotes:<br />
<br />
"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." - Michael Jordan"<br />
<br />
So, the lesson here is that in order for one to succeed, one sometimes MUST encounter <i>failures. </i><br />
<i><br />
</i><br />
And that one must re-frame <i>failures</i> as <b>feedback </b>or <b>learning experience(s)</b>.<br />
<br />
Sometimes some "Lions" gives really good advice to their "cubs" isn't it? <br />
<br />
More interesting videos in the upcoming post!<br />

Cheers! <br />
