Technology is the usage of knowledge of tools, techniques and crafts to communicate for convenience especially over long distances.

Modern technology has replaced old traditional media such as telephone, text messaging or short message system (SMS) and even blogging ever since the introduction of mirco-blogging which is more related to giving updates of personal details than to share ideas and thoughts.

No matter how much innovation and creativity are being created with modern technology, age old communication face to face will still be the strongest form of communication.

It is only when discussions are carried out in person, than are they able to melt or iron out disagreements, differences in thinking, ideology, principles, objectives, agenda before unanimously agreeing on a share vision for mutually beneficial terms and conditions.

While technology has increase the bonding of friends without meeting up in person, it only is able to tell us in one single aspect of communication which is the thoughts of what is in our mind that is written in social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and many other social websites or even gadgets such as 3G phones etc.

The benefits of meeting up in person for discussion has got more benefits in fact which most civilians will not notice either way because only businessmen or owners will testify to those benefits.

In a person to person boardroom, group, or private meeting, there are many other ways in which we can communicate and understand both parties’ interests clearly without many words used.

Within a short effective one hour group discussion of meeting, there will be discussions, disagreements are ironed out instantly without waiting increasing the lag time. The tone, facial and body expression will tell the receiver even more details about the real intentions, thoughts and observations during the conversation thus making an accurate decision as compared to a casual discussion online.

Social websites can create the common bond, but it is the bonding of trust and chemistry that is only created during inter-personal interaction that brings the gap one step closer to one another.

Technology at the end of the day should be used as a secondary communication channel only for keeping in contact with people who each of us are not really close to, but primary communication still stands and is technology proof, interpersonal communication is still what works best.

It’s a fact; if not why would couples want to meet in person to know the other half instead of meeting, chatting with each other online until the critical stage of marriage than meet. It is a fact which we cannot deny and cannot escape; bonding is created only at interpersonal level and not via technology usage.

Embrace technology and put them to good use, but do not let it be used as an excuse not to meet friends in real life. Communication is what holds people together and it should be done in person.

Language is a system of study for both encoding and decoding of information as communication process.

There are many different variations of languages, from pictorial diagrams, to words, calligraphy, verbal, visual, body and even natural weather predictions and even the use of symbols in some instances.

Man has multiple systems for information processes such as facial, visual, verbal, hearing, body and emotional communication plus breathing rhythm if in close body contact.

Animals on the other hand especially in the marine life have an extensive communication channel which is a common language in different species. It is similar to man having a common language such as English across the globe. Having watched “Water Colours Part 2 of 3”, with a new knowledge of how colour works.

While fishes cannot talk, they compensate it for their brilliant variety of colours. The colour as a language of communication is the same among all the reef animals in particular those animals that does cleaning.  The colourful display of colours and the ability to change colours is how marine animals in particular those living near the coral reefs and sea bed communicate with one another, colours is the language, used by shrimps, fishes, octopus, squids and rays.

Different body parts of colours serves different purposes, either for survival, sex or to allow other cleaners to clean off parasites from their body. Changing of colours represents the appreciation the cleaning services, and for acceptance of partner for the opposite sex during the mating season for fishes.

Colour changes also happens when the fishes are growing up, having completely different colour and body shape so as to remain completely different from the adult fishes to reduce the association and competition thus increasing their chances of survival living next to the adult fishes.

Man also communicates, but unlike the marine animals, we express ourselves more through body language and via sound. While we cannot change our colour, our body also grows more developed as we grow into adulthood, having either more muscular body for  or more curves which increases the sex appeal and attraction from the opposite gender.

Master the art of understanding language, the system of communication via different means so as to increase your chances of survival and to grow up stronger without putting yourself at risk as you grow.

Reduce risk and increase your odds of survival by mastering the language in different variations not limited to only speech.

Foundation is the basis or groundwork of anything.

To learn to walk and run, we first have to learn to crawl and balance by standing on our own two feet.

To speak a variety of language and dialects, we first have to understand how to talk and communicate.

To do business, we have to learn accountancy which is a advanced mathematics derived from basic mathematics of add, subtract, multiply and divide so as to calculate profit and loss.

For good health, we first have to ensure our body constitution is in good health with the help of traditional Chinese medicine via herbs therapy.

Building a building requires a strong solid foundation, the portion of building’s structure that transfer the weight if the building into the ground strata so as to remain strong.

Healthy relationship between family, relatives and friends requires a strong foundation of trust and bonding too, which is cultivated and built since young by celebration events and gatherings.

Like wise, marriage and boy-girl relationship is all about emotions handling which is needed in everything which we do, in presentation of business, family communication, health, and the passion for language learning. The love for learning and doing anything keeps us moving forward and always improving for more.

Driving a car requires the basic understanding of both theory and practical knowledge and experience too.

Like a tree in nature, it starts small, grows deeper as it grows taller from a small tree to a strong tree sufficient to stand and withhold itself against strong winds with its deep roots spread all over thus it is not easy to uproot a tree.

Whatever we do, we need to stick to the basic foundation, so never ever belittle the minor details which is a necessity to start the learning curve. It is the catalyst to success.

Loss is the failure to make good use of something, the failure to preserve and maintain. It is the failure to keep, get or have something; to bear the loss of robbery for failure to safe keep your money and valuables.

Every business, individual will suffer losses regardless of how big or small the loss is, but with each loss, there is always a lesson to be learned from experience so as not to allow the same mistake to happen ever again.

Lives are lost when natural disasters strikes, causing homes, farmlands, to be damaged, and people suffer both financial and physical lost of homes and wealth plus food.

Foolish lives are lost when people without proper thinking commit suicide thinking that their problems cannot be solved which is untrue. Every problem originates from the cause, the root, plug and root of the problem and it will be solved. People commit suicide when they feel the problem is beyond their control, coward acts and signs of being selfish passing on problems to family members and love ones.

Businesses suffer losses when financial crisis strikes, a chain of events beyond their control happens and everyone suffers. The only crisis prove method is to be self-sufficient, grow your own food, have your own property on your own land and depend on solar energy which is possible but it requires lots of wealth to make it possible.

If you are always incurring losses regardless of what you do, be it in relationships, getting duped, in businesses being tricked into signing agreements to give up certain rights or ownership or money, it’s time to re-look at the process, and reflect on why such losses always and never fail to crawl back up on you sticking to you like a leech sucking your health, wealth and life away from you.

If you’re clueless, get this into your head, the mind. You are the cause and effect of it, if you want to stop the same repeating experiencing similar unpleasant events, than start from inside outwards.

Stop using, talking, communicating the way you used to, ask people for advice, get a proper coach, relearn how to handle work, human relationships, handling rejections, how to view at problems, how to deal and cope with difficult problems.

There are a lot of things to learn, if you don’t and is unwilling to accept the fact that you suck at handling yourself, selling yourself, than you deserve to be duped and being abused because you show and tell others with your behaviors announcing to the people and environment around you that you’re weak in any other ways. The strong will always walk over the weak, which is why bullies are all around.

Learn to change, accept your problems, and deal with them, if you don’t, whatever happens to you before, will happen to you again if you don’t want to change. This applies to all areas, regardless of relationship, business ventures, health, mental well-being, EQ, IQ and communication.

Do you always want to be a position destined to be a loser losing everything and everyday no matter how hard you try? If that’s the way you show to others, you reap what you sowed.

Example like supermarkets, they always say trolleys go missing every month, damaged etc, that’s because they didn’t make any effort in preventing those events from happening. If you put a stop to customers wanting to leave with a  trolley full of products, it is going to help business save thousands of dollars with just hiring a few full timers to stop and prevent customers from buying more than what they can carry themselves.

By allowing customers to make their problem the business problem, than the business owner who knows the problem but doesn’t do anything to stop it deserves to suffer a loss and the loss just increases, when people recognize that the company can’t be bothered with small minor issue.

No matter what you do, do the best within your abilities to reduce your chances of incurring loss and come up with solutions to increase your profit while reduce the loss to double, triple your profits.

Stay positive regardless of whatever situation and positive results will find you soon enough.

Who do you want to be? A loser or a WINNER?

Cooking is the preparing of food for consumption.  It is a mastery of skills, handling, experience of using the fire, water, ingredients, mix and matching of different food to come up with a excellent display of dish with nice presentation for both visual, and mouth-watering tasting sensation.

Cooking requires positive discipline, organizing, tidiness, cleanliness, budgeting, creativity and sensitive sense of smell, taste-buds, hearing and sight. It’s not simple to master it, but when you master it, the same skills which were used to help you cook up a nice table full of dishes will help you greatly in the process of becoming wealthy if you correctly apply it and convert it into financial and business disciplinary education.

How a person cooks directly reveals his/her attitude and working style. It’s similar to wealthy businessmen playing golf to determine their business partners and the deal etc. Cooking is just a part of the consideration factor. Still, if you want to get wealthy, learn to play golf, they have their reasons for playing golf.

Cooking and the cleaning up part will reveal a person’s attitude and thinking to clearing up a mess of his/her own. The preparation of the dishes will reveal how hardworking and meticulous a person is in details which translates to business customer service. The presentation of the dish, layout etc will reveal to you how a person present and sell him/herself to others. How they eat the food will reveal how much table manners, respect they have to their elders, parents and friends.

Mastering cooking will not help you to go from rags to riches, but not wealthy. It will help you improve yourself, have more discipline etc. To be wealthy, you need to learn a lot of other related education to succeed; it’s more about the mindset which determines your success, so work on it.

You can get rich from cooking, but when you’re rich, you can’t stop cooking else your money will stop which is the difference between getting rich and getting wealthy. Wealth is accumulated even when you do nothing; it’s just a result of what seeds and hard-work you put in previously that allows you to reap the fruits of your hard labour in the past which not many people will know of.

Cooking encourage communication, discussion among family members. Advice and experiences are shared on the table during dinning or at a tea-break session with a common interest in food, the universal language regardless of boundaries, thus it is the easiest method to break the ice, increase the family bonding etc.

If you want to instill discipline into a spoilt brat, throw him/her into the kitchen and just make sure they don’t burn the kitchen in flames will do. Stand by their side, offer advice, not nag, and let them do what they like experiment it, taste the difference, than advice are much appreciated, rather than immediately saying No to this, that whatever is wrong, than they get the expected answer without first tasting the bitter, burnt food dishes which they should taste.

Cooking is a great way to teach children as they grow up and be independent to cook for themselves and family members if all are staying together sharing the fun process, enjoyment and happiness of cooking.

Communication is a conversation which everybody does; in fact every single living organism does it. The ability to communicate to each other if done successfully gets the results expected.  Failure to communicate efficiently will result in nothing but failure.

Communication is a conversation with many different interpretations and understandings based on respective experiences with different individuals. What you understand from this might not be what he/she understands of this.

I was exchanging a short messaging service (SMS) with a friend (F) of mine, having seen the contents which show signs of being a complete newbie in multi-level-marketing (MLM) I than decided to show it to my partner (M) who may not have the same understanding and teaching which I had so I communicate and exchange ideas behind every single message exchanged in the process between my friend and I.

With every reply I got, and the response I intended to type and sent, I discussed it with him (M) and both him and I realized that we’re thinking from different perspective because his experience and what he learnt was different from what I learnt coming from different background etc.

At times, I stick to my preferred reply methods, while at times I adopt his idea and method which M would use to reply to the same response I receive from my friend F. With each response received, I was able to predict the reply I expected it to be due to experiences in lots of similar conversations and backing it up with reasons, thus both M and I learnt from this simple SMS discussion which was live.

Through this simple discussion, I realized that M was thinking just the way accordingly to what was commonly taught in such MLM business trainings. While I on the other hand learn from both MLM trainings and enhance my learning deepen it with reading self-improvement books thus the different in thinking.

The exercise was a great success. Though it was a simple one, but we both learnt the differences of each other and had our ideas exchanged, messaged crossed over to each other and understood it which aid in our learning process. With the same response (questions from F), different replies variations came out from M and I so it was a triple win situation.

First win, I managed to convince  F to join me, second win, M learn the way I analyze and reply to a question and third, F got to learn of a better opportunity to learn from millionaires instead of learning from ordinary people who aren’t having successful testimonials to prove their ability to generate wealth.

If you like to learn from millionaires, contact me using the contact page and I’ll get back to you shortly.

Fyi: This is a limited unique real-life business learning opportunity to pick up skills from millionaires, not one not two but three direct millionaires as uplines guiding us. To top it up, the business is lead by a well known successful multi-millionaire with a purpose.
