Battle is the contest of strength and merits of individuals in a hostile engagement in any environment.

It is not simply a fight, instead it consist of many other factors and hopes pin onto that single or group battle of participants where dreams, hopes, dignity, reputation and pride are on the line.

Emerging victorious from a battle with valour is the pride of the winner representing not only himself, and also the coach, people who believe in the contestant/fighter, the same race and even the country he is representing.

When a contestant is selected, he no longer represents himself but represents all the people and is wearing the national flat in a battle. Living the dream and living up to the nation’s reputation, pushing themselves forward at times even if they themselves want to surrender at times.

That is when moral support, motivation, cheers works on the contestant who represents their dreams to push on and fight harder than before the results are announced.

In the technology era, there is no longer the physical battle. Instead it has all switched to the use of media, wanting to emerge as the winner in respective fields to be acknowledge as the global champion without engaging in fights which is also known as politics.

There are two concurrent wars happening in every single country on earth, the war of politics and government fighting on two fronts but using the same soldiers.

The top cabinet ministers are the politicians wanting to establish themselves as the good person helping other nations in need thus they go for bilateral ties and treaties with respective nations with mutual beneficial terms.

On the other hand, the same cabinet ministers are fighting their own battle with the civilians who are their boss and may pass the rights to run the country to another political group if they fail to satisfy their needs which are employment and ensuring everyone gets paid.

This is what I myself view as a losing battle, one person cannot fight on two fronts, moreover they don’t even understand what the external nations wants with their own country and there they are trying to win on both sides and are sinking on both ships with each leg stuck in a ship each, sinking along with them.

What kind of battle are you up against with? Who are your competitors? Are you representing yourself or your parents or even your own organization? What is it that you seek? Before you even have the desire for battle, what is the purpose?

Battle is the same in business, fighting everyday for profits, sales, clients, and with the objective in mind to win and emerge victorious thus growing rich, affluent into big companies and businesses.

Are you rich or in the process of making it? How do you plan to strategically move yourself up there and where are your alliances? Identify all these to increase your odds of success.

If you don’t plan, you plan to fail.

Failure is not a option but a chance to do self-reflection.

Competition is the rivalry for supremacy, it gives incentives for self-improvement.

Competition is more serious than compete alone despite being the same word but with different meanings. Competition is far more intense, especially in tournaments and in business. The most recent and much talked about prime example will be Formula 1World Drivers Championship.

Leading the pack is legendary Michael Schumacher with a total of seven championships and has come out of retirement and back into the drivers’ championship quest for his eighth champion title and more.

Following behind closely Jenson Button, Lewis Hamilton 2009 and 2008 champions respectively, together with former Ferrari team-mates Felipe Massa who was guided by Michael Schumacher when and Fernando Alonso  a two time champion in for 2005 , 2006 who replaced Kimi Räikkönen the 2007 champion.

With Michael Schumacher back into the drivers’ seats, the competition will only get more intense and that’s when there are more joy and happiness, despite the strong competition.

It is only when chances like this to pit against a legend that excites competitors and this is a good example of friendly competition for the quest of honor and glory to beat Michael Schumacher for personal achievement.

It is only when you pit against the best, than you can be the best of the best to be one of the elites at the top of the ladder.

“An achievement is a bondage. It obliges one to a higher achievement.” – Albert Camus.

Compete is to outdo another for acknowledgment, prize and supremacy. It is the rivalry of two or more parties.

The most competitive industry in the employment sector will be Wall Streets in the USA. If you don’t know anything or what it does, watch Channel News Asia “Chinese woman succeeding on Wall Streets” and you will get what I mean.

In employment, it is the most competitive employment for employees where sky is the limit, and like what is said in the show, anybody who can survive in Wall Street for at least a year is already earning more than others. They have five times higher wages than others in the world. A hedge fun manager can easily earn up to a billion dollars of wages if he/she is successful.

In business, Forbes ranking list is the most competitive place for businessmen and entrepreneurs. In the past, being a millionaire will be sufficient to be among featured in the Forbes List, since few years back, Forbes List has changed and it takes at least a billion to climb into the list, thus the competition is intense.

Unlike employment, business is easier and much more fun and happening, if you enjoy what you are doing, something that is your passion, you are already ahead of your competitors because there is no classification between work and play for people who are working on their passion as business thus passion is a critical factor in business.

Competition is everywhere, it is the survival of the fittest for our own lives, we cannot depend on anybody except ourselves for a living, no even our parents, although parents are willing to give up their lives for us, but that is something that’s not good.

We should learn from the wild rogue nature of animals and beast, the instincts are kept inside each and everyone of us and will only surface in desperate times for survival. Clueless on what I’m talking about, watch Okto Documentary shows and you might learn about related stuffs.

Wild animals only protect their babies until they are fully independent and able to hunt on their own before leaving them on their own and carrying on with their own lives. This is seen and practiced by Western countries which is good but not in Asian countries thus contributing to Asian weakness in survival instincts.

Go for more natural outdoor sports and advantage, you don’t need to go into the advantage and sports full time, just a one time experience will do if you can catch and remember the feeling, experience at the back of your hand and recall it easily. If not, put in some effort into it and experience what nature and what is required for success.

Entrepreneurship is all about independence, and it come from freedom, breaking away from parents, care and protection and standing alone by yourself beating the odds and be the champion.

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.

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.

Perfect is a word used to describe flawlessness and completeness, everybody and business aspire to be perfect but there’s no business or person who is perfect and it will not be possible.

The only way to be as close as getting perfect is to aim for perfection, excelling in products, customer service, before, during and after sales service including delivery, information counter, food etc.

To work towards perfection, is a uphill task but it is not impossible, with each feedback and complaints, there will always be rooms for improvements and thus to space to perfecting any business or person character and behavior.

To strive for perfection, is equivalent to aiming of the highest proficiency in skill or excellence in art or in a trait. In order to be close to perfect like a champion, first have to face a lot of obstacles, hurdles and learning to go against the tide and waves.

Like a deserving champion surfer paddling against the huge sea waves, duck dive together with the board to avoid being washed away by in incoming wave, and emerging in the after wave, sporting for the big signs of a big wave and working hard to ride top of the wave before surfing inside the barrel and coming out still surfing on the board before the barrel of close in on the surfer.

An occupation which can integrate both passion and business together, work towards perfection is  property, whereby the wealthy land developer builds his/her own dream home with the state of the art high tech facilities and amenities that everyone dream of.

In order to first learn the skill of perfection, we first have to learn to eliminate our own negative habits one by one which will take a long time, but it’s a worthy bargain with nothing to lose and a lot to gain with time.

There isn’t anything which is perfect, but we can work towards perfection and perfecting ourselves, environment any other things as long as it is within our abilities.

To succeed, master the skill of perfecting something, not to be perfect.

Shortcut is a shorter, quicker way to reach your destination on time if not early. It is a method, a procedure or policy used that reduces time, energy or effort to accomplish something.

Life is about moving ahead, enjoying the process. Growing up need not be boring following what we are expected to do, molding and fulfilling the regrets of our parents, siblings or even friends ambitions or dreams. It is all about yourself and yourself only.

The moment you descend onto earth from birth, you have the rights to rule your own life the way you want it to be. But the rights are only given to those who deserve the rights, to qualify for the rights to rule and own your own life, you have to first prove yourself and your own worth to others by being successful, so others who are weaker will and must submit to the stronger leader and be kept under their wings like it or not. It’s just the natural order of society, be it man, animals, reptiles, insects, germs etc.

Anybody who prove it, make it big are the true champions who earn the rights and respect to set their own rules for others to follow. Look at the government across the globe, most have earn their rights to rule the countries from the political ladder climb, with the votes entrusted on the president to do the right thing and making sure they deliver on their promises else they will not stand a chance to renew their term as a president.

Life is all about winning, being self-sufficient, learning to help one another. The more people you help, the more you benefit which is why in both religion regardless of countries, they all believe in their own god that the god/deity will help them and attain happiness in any situation or at least seek a inner peace in their hearts.

If you seek to learn and find shortcuts, what are you waiting for? I’ve being writing so much, you can just contact me, and I’ll show you where, how and who to learn from. Satisfaction guaranteed if not money back guarantee on condition that you’re committed to put in the hardwork and effort to grow together.

If you want to have shortcuts, learn from people who already know the shortcuts, don’t ask people who knows nothing (how you check for this, see what results, life they are living, and you’ll know), the only exception is when they know so much like me, but no results yet, you need to believe in faith and take calculated risk.
