Money

posted by ryan

Chinese New Year is coming, which represents a new Chinese Lunar Year welcoming the zodiac Tiger this year. Every Chinese New Year, Chinese will practice certain beliefs to keep the wealth inwards to the home rather than outwards.

There are taboos during Chinese New Year. Like for instance, sweeping is not allowed during the Chinese New Year period, if there’s really a must to sweep, than it must be sweep from outside inwards to the home so as not to sweep away for God of Fortune.

While everyone is preparing for New Year and welcoming the god of fortune, most of the people however, will not open the door even if god of fortune is knocking on the doors. Those who open the doors will be given and be blessed with fortune and prosperity.

Majority of the people in Singapore have being trained and bought up to look, think and plan only for short term. All that they see and ask of is money, only real hard cash is what they want, they don’t want opportunity which requires hard-work. All that they wish for is money to fall from the sky just like a game played in television shows annually, shaking the money tree in game shows.

Money comes in many variations. It can be in gold, silver, jade, antique, home, insurance savings plan, investments and businesses. It can also come in a form of a business opportunity. An opportunity to be trained by the rich, wealthy millionaires who knows the secrets of doing a business successfully greatly reducing the risk of loses with their valuable experiences.

New Year Resolution is a wish that everyone will make, but only a minority of the people will actually welcome anything opportunity that comes their way. Most of which either give reasons which are excuses to turn away money or tell the opportunity to wait for them, thinking it is their right to get rich and the opportunity must wait for them.

This kind of thinking is completely wrong, but suitable for respective nations, who wants to groom a large pool of civil servants, but I view them as slaves slogging hard for the rich without having a justifiable income for their efforts.

A bull who works so hard, will still be a bull after many years of hard. If working hard is really the proven way to get rich, than the third world should be richer than us already but why are they poorer than us?

The answer is simple and straight-forward: make the right choice choose the cash machine wisely before working hard to grow that cash machine.

Do you want to continue servicing your cash printing machine, or do you want to build a bigger, better cash printing machine with a New Year? If you’re working in the same job, have the same pay, doing the same thing which you have being doing for years, nothing have changed and like wise same for your income over these years and it will remain stagnant for years to come and even is losing in value thanks to inflation which is happening.

Inflation is the number one factor why the rich is getting richer while the poor is getting poorer. Without using the same tools which the rich are using to get rich, the poor will only get poorer because their tools are rusty, broken and not efficient to make more money.

Money is only possible if the poor is willing to change their tools (thinking) and adopt (follow) what the rich do (business investments) instead of slogging (planting a bean sprout) as compared to the rich who’s working hard too in a different way (panting durian trees) looking ahead for the long term continuous income once it ripens and bear fruits.

Here’s the difference: The poor use a green bean to plant a bean sprout with each bean, there can only be a bean sprout which is exchanging an item for an item.

The rich is smarter: Using a durian, to plant a durian tree, for the first twenty-years, there will be no fruits, and required constant care, attention and fertilizer as nourishment. After the twenty-years is up, when the durian tree is ready with deep roots, the rich (famer) will than no longer be required to care for the durian tree as it is ready to stand on their own producing rich quality and quantity of durians with zero effort from the twenty-one year onwards reaping the fruits of labor than sharing it with the people who assisted him during those difficult years.

Earning money is easy, exchanging time for money. Building wealth is much more difficult like planting a durian tree, but success will only belongs to people who are not only hard-working but also smart in making the right decision as to what kinds of seeds to plant and looking ahead of the benefits of planting the right seeds.

If you want to work with millionaires in printing money right now, don’t hesitate, contact me now and I’ll show and share with you what seeds I will be planting, and how I know it’s going to be the next durian tree. Success belongs only to people who makes the right decision and seek proper guidance. I’m learning from millionaires, and so should you. Join me as we go on a journey planting and farming durian trees.

Action

posted by ryan

Action, a simple instruction yet it’s so hard to put it into application.

The route to success is so simple yet it requires so much discipline to put it into motion and have the momentum to keep it going.

While it will require lots of self-discipline force us to step out of the comfort zone, and do what we want but yet seems like a up-hill task, it requires as much commitment comparable to the discipline make things happen.

Whatever happens, it happens for a reason.

To succeed, sacrifices have to be weighed upon, measure and place the various options on the weighing scale and determine which option carries the heaviest weight and priority and act accordingly.

When something is lost, than only will be there gain in return. Maybe the gain in return may not seem significant at first but with time and appreciation, the gain will compensate the lost and surpass the previously sacrificed options made in the decision making.

Success is as simple as breaking down big scale projects into smaller projects and than further break them down into simple steps and set a daily target and goal to complete a simple achievable task on daily basis to keep the success element daily, gradually improve the number of successes daily and you’ll be on your way to achieving bigger success.  As simple as it sounds, it requires ourselves to not think about anything in mind and follow Nike’s slogan Just Do It!.

Without my mentor’s push, I guess I myself will also not be writing this blog even to being with. Having said my point, it’s good to have a mentor to just give a simple push/nudge in the right direction to get things started and the rest of the steps/actions are solely up to us.
