Supremacy is a philosophy that one is superior to others, so dominate, control or rule those who do not.

It is to be of the highest in rank or authority; paramount; sovereign; chief.

Every nation has something which they regard themselves as the chief, be it food, people, language, unique resources and even military might.

USA is the current chief in military ability due to Nuclear power, but not the highest, because it is sharing the number one position with Russia, because before USA it was Russia whereby Rome was one of the first few countries to win numerous battles in war thus of the success and rich heritage around the world with the little bits and pieces of heritage left behind.

Before Russian (Rome civilization), it was the Greek history of ancient Greece civilization which inspired Rome. Than later comes Adolf Hitler who than made Germany a supreme country back than.

Back to the subject proper, supremacy can be found in France too for its nuclear abilities thus the reason why USA will not do anything against European nations which are on par with them. Thus USA can easily declare war with Iran and other small countries, due to military abilities.

It is the supremacy here that is the primary reason for having war. The fear of the next rise in another supreme country in terms of military abilities especially in terrorist which is Iran as well as another country which is in loggerheads with USA is China, the communist country, self-sufficient and need not even rely on USA for nearly everything if I am not wrong.

Look at the way USA is trying to discuss, persuade these countries and imposing sanctions on bilateral ties, it’s all about business, profits, having a smaller competitor is way better than allowing a fellow competitor to surpass you putting yourself at more risk. It’s all purely business and politics, using treaty to ensure that they can profit from other respective countries.

Looking beyond military, Japan was also one a ‘supremacy country’ in military during WWII but thanks to alliances of fellow European nations, Japan is back to its own humble beginnings due to treaty agreements. But that has not stopped Japan’s supremacy; in fact it is a blessing in disguise. Japan is the most high tech countries in the globe, thanks to the war treaty, they shifted their focus to the financial sector thus it is the second strongest country with China catching up closely behind at third due to currency reasons.

Egypt is has it’s own supremacy too and that is in the preservation of bodies, mummification and pyramid structure which is still a mystery to date on why it is able to help preserve mummies back then.

To succeed with a big bang and buzz allowing neighbouring nations or competitors to acknowledgement requires skill, supreme skills, ability and unchallenged niche.

Shao Lin Shi in China is another supreme in the martial arts, whereby it integrates all different forms of martial arts into the present Shao Lin Martial arts with the help of the marital arts masters in the records of history.  Bruce Lee is another chief in martial arts, being the first yellow skin to be honored by Hollywood.

India is another country, without wanting to copy Hollywood, it come up with Bollywood to feature their own films and industry over taking Hollywood in terms of movie production per year showcasing their own supremacy without following and instead start by leading and opening a new trail.

Supremacy is the way to go, if you don’t know what is your strengths, follow another person who knows their strengths and work closely with those people, and one day you will be considered as one of the co-founders of whatever is going to be the next supreme industry be it business, military, technology, science or others.

“Be the best at what you can do and constantly upgrade yourself to be the supreme leader of your niche” – That’s what I would say and tell to anybody who decides to take on entrepreneurship. Be the leaders and not the followers.

Disdain is to look upon or treat with contempt, despise or scorn a feeling of contempt for anything regarded as unworthy.

It is not a pleasant state of mind to look down on something, somebody or ourselves. People who do embrace disdain, are the people who are complaining of no money, money not enough, get a job work hard and get paid; those kind of mentality are what makes the majority of the population.

On the other hand, the successful and wealthy people accept themselves, and have admiration for even more successful individuals wanting to be like them, thus the rich always hangs around with one another while the poor does the same also.

People, who look down on themselves and others, are not helping themselves and instead is dragging themselves gradually into poverty social circle, restricting themselves of each of our own rightful wealth and success.

Every single one of us are winners and champions, the moment we were given lives in the womb, we were already champions because we beat the other millions of sperm and thus life was formed.

Success is not determined by birth, family, social status. If you seek success, it will be yours eventually if you work hard and are committed to doing so.

We should not listen to non-constructive comments and hang around with people who are not helping each other to improve ourselves. We should hang around with people who are honest, straight-forward with feedbacks so we can learn and improve everyday and every second.

Average people of the majority is contented with living in a unrealistic world thus they only think of study hard, work hard and get paid, depriving themselves of the possibility of success.

Think and act like a champion, and one day, you will emerge as a champion in your own niche with passion as your fuel to success.

Reflect is to reproduce, rebound, mirrored and to give back or show an image. When we look at the mirror, it gives us a reflection of ourselves with an image of how we look.

It also serves as a form of mediation to reflect on one’s virtues and faults. Whatever we do reflects what we learn from our own family upbringing and education we learn. It is an aspect or impression of how well or poor we do in anything, for an example, the project’s success reflects well on your abilities.

Reflections are what we see around us everyday but how many times do we actually slow down our pace and take a look at our past actions and reflect on how we can improve ourselves for the better?

No many people do self reflection in fact, instead of doing so, they blame others, taking their own faults and claiming it to be others by implicating and pulling others into the picture via expanding and fault finding like a amplifier or loudspeaker to make everybody know what is happening.

Blame is like the junior of reflection, whereby from reflection than will we gain wisdom and improve while the former will only increase our problems.

By mediating, which the monks does regularly, they attain a higher level of wisdom and intelligence thus they are free from corruption, greed and money despite the major influence on capitalism throughout the world and yet Buddhism or the Shao Lin Shi in china is still going strong and has greatly influence many other nations and individuals to join if not to learn about it and even Americans are learning marital arts from China which is the spark to USA’s interest in China whereby white skin start to change their views about the yellow skin. I am not being racist or anything but it is just facts which we all have to accept, with Shao Lin Shi’s acceptance and willingness to share etc, it is what open the window to sharing, mutual beneficial win-win situation etc. It is only when we ignore all those skin colour, religion practice and accept one another that allow us to gain wisdom and intelligence beyond what schools teach.

Mediation is a art, it is something that can be taught, self-learned and picked up easily as long as the person is interested in learning it, with mediation, seeking the inner peace, thus reflecting on their past actions and coming to a truce with whatever they are doing to walk on a path of improving themselves regardless of the sins they did in the past.

It is to admit and agree totally that it is their own fault for the whatever situation they are in presently based on their past actions. Than with mediation, do soul searching and look back in their mind and see themselves on what exactly did they do, how they do it etc. It is like piecing up all your past memories together and watching the memories unfold themselves in your mind like watching a movie of yourself as a lead and learning from your own mistakes.

Everybody will surely be able to do soul searching at the one critical point in our own lives and that is when we are at the brink of death, either when we are about to die peacefully, or from accident and being rushed to hospitals (touchwood) etc.

It is something which we all can do everyday, every second as long as we want to do it. The catalyst to success starts from reflecting on yourself and martial arts is one way which we can cultivate both mind body and soul.

Female is any living organism, it can be plants, animals, reptiles or man. I will be writing about ladies in particular today as a classification.

Ladies fall into various different classifications. Virgin or non-virgin, young or old, rich or poor, all of them have got their own terms.

Young virgins are called girls usually used to describe child or adolescent. Old virgins are called maid and generally women is used to identify adult females regardless of age. (Source from Wikipedia)

Woman is a term which ladies used in the past to describe only for girls who have had sex, but these days it is no longer this way teenage girls having casual sex to satisfy their early puberty due to chemically processed food, external influences and curiosity. Instead, woman is used to describe ladies who are matured in thinking, know their priorities, and taking responsibility for their own actions unlike teenage girls.

A clearer classification of woman for themselves is that a woman who is married, with a blissful family and has given birth to a baby than only will she be considered as a completed woman. It does not stop there, in fact woman seeks to climb the ladder like males do, and thus the next higher position is to become a businesswoman.

Businesswoman is one who can excel and juggle between the differences in handling people especially the different gender communication and rapport in teambuilding. To be a leader leading a group of people is what everybody regardless of gender seeks, to be the leader of the pack.

There is another higher level and that is to become a successful businesswoman who is recognized by both genders and not just leading guys in her group with their hearts completely against a female leader. It is not gender biasness, but it is time tested and proven that guys are objective and will draw a line clearly unlike ladies who might bring their personal feelings into the business thus making a biased decision. It is in the genetics that nobody can alter but with practice, ladies can overcome this obstacle.

Carolyn Kepcher, the co-star of Donald Trump’s “The Apprentice” is the perfect example which leads me to the highest position in the corporate ladder that any woman can climb.

Successful businesswoman is a lady with a blissful family with kids (a son and a daughter), successful in business negotiation, building businesses, brings in projects and revenues for the business and is independent with the ability to be given complete authority over a business. She knows when to be the businesswoman, housewife, mother, colleague and as a friend.

All of the above are skills essential for any ladies who aspire to climb up the ladder, instead of demanding for it using the women’s charter in Singapore Law to their advantage at the expense of the company and their increase their colleagues workload (for ladies residing in Singapore) which doesn’t works in business which is why politicians and businessmen always cannot co-exist and work in partnership because their thinking is different.

If you’re a lady, and wants to learn from a successful business woman, you can read up more about Carolyn Kepcher, she has written a book “Carolyn 101: Business Lessons from The Apprentice’s Straight Shooter” with clear instructions on how she went on from employment to doing business with Donald Trump.

If you’re a guy who wants to know how to spot a potential successful businesswoman for business and other reasons etc, that book is a good choice too. It not only tells you how a woman should work like in business and also how they can work with guys, if you’re worried about the competition for the next manager position in the company, you will definitely need to read this book. In fact it is a must for you to read it so as to prepare yourself for incoming businesswoman who means business.

Law is a system of rules put in placed and enforced through a set of institutions.

It is the principles and regulations established in a community by some authority and applicable to its people, whether in the form of legislation, or of custom and policies, recognized and enforced by judicial decision.

With the rules in place, it helps to help people, business in place to deter them from administering any harmful or deceptive actions resulting in losses.

It is a intelligent system to control and maintain order. At home, school, work or in business, there are always rules and regulations to follow, depending on the seriousness, basic rules will be set for home and school for basic needs whereas at work and business, laws are usually used to control, reduce and prevent theft of confidential business secrets, recipes and fraud charges against both employees and employers keeping the interest of the business in place where profits is the key.

It reflects the way which we want to live our lives. With the help of law, it maintains the social order of how we live our lives, similarly likewise in nature; there are both predators and preys who also follow the natural survival instincts to prey and eat just enough and protecting themselves too.

If we want to survive, we need to learn the rules of engagement, in business, there are such rules which are not written in any books except for the one book which I have mentioned previously in earlier blog entries.

Everything in the world is about rules or laws whichever way you call it. Follow the rules and practice and you will be fine to live a long shelf life like products manufactured from factories. Just follow the standard practice and nothing will go wrong. Add and try being innovative and you risk putting yourself at risk and health complications, reducing your own life span.

Example: Man likes to be unique, such as having tattoos, piercing; playing punk act like gangsters only to flee at the sight of police, doing things that the society just rejects which includes smoking, gambling, drugs consumption, raping, prostitution and many others, all of which falls into the grey area and can be a double edge sword if used correctly.

Law is used everywhere and anywhere like a net casted all over covering all the way from the sky to the land and even the seas. 法律以经捕下了天罗地网，就算你是天之骄子也难逃法网，想逃也逃不掉。No matter where you go, you have to learn rules of the community and environment which you are engaging yourself into, and do so to survive, not to commit suicide like the robbers, scammers, who thinks they can outsmart the law but they are in fact just denying and tricking themselves that it is possible, but few years down the road, they will still end up being caught, if that is so, why still even bother to try their luck?

Instead of testing the system, why not ride on the system like a surfer surfing the waves like a champion, if you can’t beat them, join them. Don’t believe it, you better do. Simply said, just try swimming against a huge wave and see what happens. Perhaps that hard reality might knock some sense into those silly individuals.

Festival is an event staged by local community centers on the unique aspect of the community.

There are many types of festivals across the globe, from religious to arts, food, entertainment and seasonal festivals. The most talked about regardless of nationality will be the various religious festivals of respective countries.

Time and time again, religious festivals have being board cast on television shows numerous times and showing different types of religious cultures and festivals. Christianity and Buddhism are the most commonly featured on the media due to the yearly festival across the world.

Media telecast of religious festivals is to neither a good nor bad thing, it’s just another piece of news and allow people to get updates for people to follow up with.

Buddhism has quite a number of religious festivals that has being shown on television and in other media channels. With its deep roots and influence from all around South-East Asia, all the way from China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Iran, Afghanistan, India, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Myanmar and in Singapore. With different religious practice and worshiping of different gods, generally we are all from the same roots, Buddhism just that our way of celebrating festivals might deter from among ourselves.

The scale and magnitude of how a country practice their own religious goes to show how united they are actually. I’m not trying to promote any religion here, but just that I was watching a Chinese show this afternoon and it help me understand the importance of culture, generations, unity,

Celebrating festivals is good way to build bonding, unity and getting to know one another of the same belief. Example like what I watched in the show, the dragon boat festival also known as the 端午節(Duan Wu Jie) is a good way to let people among the community interact with one another.

Dragon boat festival is especially successful in this aspect. Due to the involvement of lots of people, competition among respective dragon boat teams (different communities pit against each other) thus getting to know and understand respective cultures thus encouraging mutual understanding.

With a common celebration, it is not limited to a small group but it is done a big scale. Making of the dumplings in the kitchen increase the family bonding when the cook, and the assistances on a small scale.

Within a community, the village will work towards preparation for the dragon boat festival, all the festive practice; beliefs will be passed down to the next generations with participation and involvements thus strengthening the bonding among them.

Beyond community level, they cheer each of their own community to spur each other community to fight for the dragon boat championship thus increasing the tolerance for other communities with a common goal united as one.

Organizing a festival is hard-work but the rewards far exceed the cost of the festival strengthening themselves with their own country’s identity, culture and unity.

That is something which we all can learn from, to understand each other’s religion and practice instead of condemning and trying to stir up conflicts which results in only more signs of trouble etc.

Tolerance and mutual understanding is the way which we all should work towards together as a whole. Like wise in business, instead of trying to cut each other’s throat with reducing profits, getting into a price war competition, why not work together, spilt profits, and have win-win situation?

At times, when I read and watch news and getting to know businesses trying to fight for a bigger slice, it just amuse me to know how much they lack in terms of mutual respect and cooperation.

Most businesses outside are just dumb in my personal perspective, why can’t they learn a simple thing like cooperation like the politicians, government, helping one another? Although it’s true that businesses are making much more money than politicians, but they are killing each other instead of helping one another.

Businessmen should instead learn from entrepreneurs who are successful than businessmen themselves.

Festival is the way to go, respect, tolerance, and understanding is needed to build a relationship and a mutual beneficial business for profits and not losses seeing red figures.

Multi-tasking is the ability to carry out more than a task at the same time. Often it means doing two to three tasks at the same time.

It not only saves time, increase efficiency and productivity and help businesses reduce cost such as hiring more employees with the work load.

Man are very good at multi-tasking, in fact we do it so well these days that we forget that we are even doing it and it’s already an basic instinct in some of the people.

People created computers as a tool for additional multi-tasking to help with communication, calculations, presentations, entertainment etc. Technology is the leverage that man has created to do multiple multi-tasking at the same time.

A frequent example will be using msn or facebook messenger with conversion whereby you can talk to many individuals at the same location right in front of your computer without having to move or use additional equipments.

These days’ performers and celebrity artists are also multi-tasking to for commercial and financial reasons.  Look at the past, do singers dance generally back in the old days? No they don’t, in fact they just depend on purely singing skills to whoa the audience and the crowd.

These days, singers not only have to sing, they have to dance, and come up with creative and interesting dance moves that will whoa the audience. The focus have shifted that these days, the singers are no longer like singers of the past, their singing skills aren’t as good as their seniors from the past.

In the past, singers can sing none stop because they have master the skill of breathing while singing, thus they will never ever go breathless, but listen closely and attentively to singers, even popular singers these days in live concert; they lack the basic skill of breathing control. With multi-tasking they have already ignored and thrown away the basic fundamentals required of a singer, and they focus only on packaging, while editing the breathlessness away in albums with the help of technology.

Multi-tasking is a good habit, but don’t let it become your obstacle and ignore the core basic fundamental skills.

Focus is the key.

Imagination is the ability of forming mental images, sensations and concepts in a moment when they are not perceived through sight, hearing or other senses.

It is the products of imagining, a conception, and mental creation, often a baseless or fanciful one. It can work together with ideas and the key to imagination is to think without any restrictions or barrier such as worries about the ability to carry out the plan via financial means and network or influence etc.

It is to think and reach for the impossible that challenge the mind to eventually come up with something with time that is more practical via team discussion and brain-storming meetings.

It is psychology, the power of reproducing images stored in the mind under suggestion of associated images or recombining former experience in a new creation of new image directed at a specific goal of solving a problem with a solution.

Start dreaming, and talk about it, who knows one day you might have come up with your own vision which can help you become the next bill gates, imagination is the start and catalyst of a vision that can help you make a fortune from it.

Idea is something that comes to the mind before one starts to think. It often comes constructed in our minds representational images, objects; it also can come from concepts, an art piece or abstracts.

Such ideas can usually earn us lots of money if taken into application towards the right purpose and intent. People who have ideas should immediately jot down the ideas, and amplify it to become a business proposal and profit from it. Ideas are free, so monetize those ideas, everyone has brains, so make good use of the brains and make money.

Instead of using hands and hard-work to make money, why not start learning on how capitalize on our own resources, the brain for monetization?

If you are not convinced, look around you, your scope of people, and the financial situation of people around you. Are the people who are wealthy doing all the labour themselves or are they passing the workload to the employees as they work on new ideas to come up with new innovative and creative products for more profits and to capture a bigger market share?

If you don’t know of any successful people around you, the next closest people you can look to is your superior, does he/she talks more, do more sales using speech to close more deals making clients happy or does he/she does more manual labour like average employees like you and I?

The prime example that everybody will experience will be the food and beverage industry. Do you often see waiters and waitresses talk and interact with the valued regular customers more or do the supervisors and captains talk and interact with the clients more? Are you the waiter and waitress doing more hard-work labour or is the supervisor and captain doing more hard-labour?

Answer is straight-forward. To succeed, we do not need to depend on hard-labour in exchange for money, all that we need to do is to think of ideas and monetize those very ideas which often comes free of charge with the exception of those businesses paying people to comes up with ideas that it example designers etc.

Put on your thinking cap and have a notebook plus a pen by your side at all times. No ideas are stupid, you just need to refine and commercialize your ideas for profits. Make sure you protect your own ideas from theft at all times.

Control is to exercise restraint, dominate, command and to eliminate and prevent something or someone getting out of hands. Example controlling a forest fire, restraint a dog with a dog leashes to deter it from going against the owner’s direction.

Be it wealthy or poverty, everybody needs to exercise some control in them.

People in poverty will have to exercise restraint over poor money decisions and better manage whatever resources they have for survival.

Wealthy individuals will have to control their spending as well as investments to limit their losses and increase their profits.

How to win the game and succeed is another issue, but controlling our own financial statement and knowing how to do it is important to everyone if they don’t want to live and suffer in misery filled with money woes each day and home becomes a war place.

There are lots of issues, emotions which we need to control, being successful means there are even more things to look at so if you exercise lots of control over positive things and people, you should be seeing your profits increase with time, if you’re seeing it, than it is time to relook at what are you in control of and what to give up control over so as to switch and learn what you should be controlling yourself to move forward and upwards.

Control and exercise self-restraint when needed.
