Music

posted by ryan

Music is the expression of ideas and emotions using rhythm, melody, harmony, tones and the use of sounds. It is produced by either instruments or living creatures.

It is a form of communication especially useful when a person is lonely or calls for help. Music in different tempos and rhythms are only understood by people within the music industry for their secret communication channel.

It expresses not only the feelings and emotions of either an individual or a group of people, it also brings across the ideas which have fused together with music to another person who understood the language.

While portable music devices and music are downloaded every second and shared over the internet, did anybody question if they themselves the listeners or audience is just listening to music for the seek of keeping up with the trend or is it what they really like?

Looking back, from the age of just radio, to walkman, disc-man, FM receivers, MP3, iPod, mobile phones with storage capabilities for music to palm tops MP4s and subsequently 3G phones which replaced all of the previous products in the market, music has come a long way and transformed in the mediums of how it is being played.

Business evolved, money and profits are made in the process, business owners and clients get rich and poor in the process respectively as both sides are happy with the end results it produces.

Music was once what we listen for relaxation, but as I look around the people in public transport, people are more and more reliant on music as a getaway channel to de-stress. So much so that they are always dependable music, listening if not blasting music into their ears, some which can even, be heard at the end of a single MRT cabin on the other side.

It is a luxury, for relaxation, but over dependence on music will become addictive and trick audience to believe that they themselves are in a tricked believe world of their own. Music accordingly to their own preference, is a reflection of the freedom, and boundaries which each individual seek.

Night clubs, pubs are just a temporary getaway place to relax, but with the portability of audio devices, people over relax themselves to the extent they no longer think correctly, and is showing signs of health complications such as mild deafness, grumpy emotions, inability to control their anger, reluctance to speak and communicate except to smooth themselves in the retreat of blasting music to their ears, jamming up the mind, making themselves in a condition less desirable.

Night clubs is a great place to relax, as it is a once a week, a month kind of places for people to distress, but with the increase stress at work, and at home, patrons are visiting such night spots frequently.

Is it a testimonial of false deception, temporary de-stress and put yourself into danger with intoxication of drinks, drugs and sex; one-night-stands, flings or just for sweet revenge to get back at your partner who is a playboy?

Whatever music you’re listening to right now, ask yourself if it is doing you good or putting you within an arms length from danger itself?

Is music helping you get rich or poor? Why not consider profiting from music instead of listening to music meant for the masses?

The secrets to get rich is to know what you want and need, and not to follow other people’s direction and help business owners fulfill their needs and desire for profit at the expense of your putting yourself in danger at arms length.

Music is be meant to be enjoyed and appreciated but not as a hideout or temporary getaway.

It should not be used as a mean of escaping from reality by blasting music to our ears to trick ourselves that we are happy as long as there is music. It is deceiving and will only do more harm than good.

It is not to be used as a escape from problems, instead, it should be used to help us face the reality as the phrase said: “Be prepared to face the music”.

Friends

posted by ryan

Friends are people who we are attached to with feelings of affection with friendly relations.

Friends come and go as we grow and age. The fact is that the older we get, we should have come across more friends as compared to previous when we were young, but why is it on the contrary that we were much happier as a child playing with our friends.

Looking at our present self, as adults, is there any body whom you can really consider friends? People who share your both your worries and joy plus the special moments of laughter together.

As a child, we have limited friends, but it is those limited friends but are quality friends whom we can share our joy, happiness and worries bonding together easily without worries for backstabbing, credit stealers, spies or trickery. It is such a pure decent and simple friendship as a child.

Adults literally and technically have less than a handful of people considered to be friends. Who do you speak do when you are lonely at night and cannot sleep? Is there someone who comes to you mind that you want to speak to but is worried if your privacy may be compromised if you share it with your friend who works and have common friends as you?

As we grow, the purpose and desire eventually exceeds our basic need for friendship, thus closing door to communication, and with peer pressure, society pressure for survival, we lose contacts with people whom we once were closed to and become acquaintance.

While I was typing this post, than realized that it is possible to still have friends whom we can trust but only on condition that both parties absolutely have no common friends, thus in this situation, it wil purely be a heart to heart talk, without worries that secrets will be spilled and passed around eventually becoming the gossip topic of the work place or conversion topic among your friends.

Thinking back, as a teenager, it was when I started to understand friends, and starting to know quality friends. Either gender will do, just so as long as he/she is there to companionship, to play, to talk, and go out together.

When I was twelve years old, I got to know a friend in a tuition center with Chinese Development Assistant Council Program at Hong Wen Primary and few months later we met again in the same secondary school and in the same class. It was than at that moment, we both became instant friends at first sight, no questions asked. That best friend relationship lasted only a year plus before it subsides into close friend status.

Soon after another classmate became my best friend, in the same group of friends in the class due to same topic and recreation club but it wasn’t long before being replaced by another person as we both travelled back home on Mass Rapid Train together back after school. While we may share different interest and subjects, but at least we share something in common, the heart to accompany each other in silence without talking. That was when I understand true friendship. Be it happiness or sad, as long as somebody is there for you, no speech, it’s the thought and presence that matters most.

After secondary school, we each went our separate paths, but still remain as close friends despite no longer having any common topic. When I got into polytechnic, it was when I really got to know and make friends with females, on much closer terms as compared to secondary school whereby I do not speak to females other than school work related.

Thankfully I had a good wonderful first year with Republic Poly in Tanglin Campus in both terms with different but wonderful classmates which remind me of my primary school days. Happy without worries or having to worry about no common topic as we all shared the same thing in mind, how to spend the day in class acting intelligent and hardworking but in fact we are just playing games, watching videos online which was fun.

Sharing games, nice videos, food topics and even on how to penalize each other in presentation so as to score high marks for ourselves, but nothing personally, all those penalizing of each other surface and stays only within the classroom, in particular only during presentation time at the question and answer fifth presentation which compromises of five groups followed by sixth presentation (model presentation) by the facilitator.

During poly days, I got to know a person from Friendster in year 2005, and it wasn’t long before I found another true friend who I can speak my mind out, only that this time, that person was a she as compared to previous three times he among the secondary group of friends.

Text messaging each other deep in the night when we had difficulty sleeping if not just wanting somebody to talk to. Thus I would just cycle over and chat before returning back home to sleep. That did not last long either, it spread over two years plus, but technically counting the number of days, its less than a month, but what makes it so memorable was the connection and trust with secrets. Not long after, due to education parted ways. Gap widens like in earlier years in school.

Thinking back, have we ever had any trusted friends as adults to speak to? Seriously at present moment, I cannot think of any. As we each pursue our own dreams, vision, work or education, spreading our wings, walking closer towards the path of loneness and pretending to be friendly to each other to climb higher.

Like-wise in business, at work, while we all desire to find real friends, but in fact it is running away further beyond our reach at the expense of money for survival just to fill our stomach. Adults have little to near zero true friends. Most of the people befriend each other just for a hidden agenda to climb and gain support from colleagues for pay rise and nothing more than it.

Where can I find my next true friend? Or will it forever just be a dream only? Perhaps. .. Another lonely night with nobody to talk to.

Laziness

posted by ryan

Laziness is the lack of desire to expand effort. It is to appear sluggish, slow moving, resistant to work.

It is a psychological problem that manifests itself in our own mind. By repeating telling ourselves that we are lazy, one day you will notice that you will tell others yourself and confirm yourself from your own mouth that you’re a lazy bone thus pushing and avoid any job or work which can be a hassle.

Laziness derives from the word lazy, but there’s a slight critical difference between these two words which dictionary and schools don’t talk about.

Laziness is a problem while being lazy is a catalyst to speed up productivity and efficiency at work for finding shortcuts. Once you start working, you will realize the difference. A shortcut is needed to reduce time, effort and to increase profits for minimal effort made.

People who practice laziness, will have a harder difficult lives and living in a environment filled with problems created by their own laziness.

People who are lazy are making lots of money. Look at your employment, do they do the work themselves or do they pass or divide their workload to the group to minimize the time spent on a project. Just do a simple comparison, is it easier for a group of people to complete a project or just a individual to complete a project? When workload is spread out, the workload decreases and thus profits are made in the process.

Another example will be for the sales people. Are the people bring in sales for companies and allow the business to profit earning more or is the employees doing the administrative work earning more? Ask and you will notice the difference. People who bring in the bacon and pass the job or work to others are earning more money, while the doers are making just average income doing not as productive things as compared to bringing in profits for the company. Nevertheless, administrative employees are just as important, if not the job or work will not get done if nobody takes up the job.

To be wealthy and successful, you first have to learn to become a lazy person finding shortcuts without reducing the profit margin or to increase any problems comprise safety at work.

Once you find or have created the blueprint, you have found yourself a winning formula which can bring you wealth and it all starts from the mind, put on your thinking cap. It is like selling a franchise business, you hold the master key, you just sell your franchise model to investors who want profits from the business, collecting royalties from every investor who is using your system.

To master the art of being lazy without having laziness in your mind is an art, a skill that must be learned and applied correctly and it all starts with your mind. So stop being a lazy bone and start thinking.

Steel

posted by ryan

Steel is made up of Iron and Copper, with different treatments; it translates to different toughness of steel depending on the purpose it is manufactured for.

It has many properties and benefits and most importantly it is recyclable, flexible enough to be made into anything, from cars, to bridges, buildings vessels air planes, all requires steel. Without the invention and mass application of steel into daily lives, it will not be possible to even talk about profits and wealth.

Having watched documentary which talked about steel thus the topic for today, are you tough enough like the steel? Do you have what it takes to have balls of steel?

In business, entrepreneurship, it’s all about profits, money, wealth and flexibility. In manufacturing business, it is all about the steel first which allows countries to prosper, war to be made safer with the use of high grade steel in armored vehicles. It is used in the core frame of our daily lives.

Earth is running out of steel, and has estimated of only twenty-seven billion tons of steel left thus recycling of steel started eighty years ago due to shortage of steel. With the shortage of steel, manufactures are taking substitutes and mining the components out to made steel from hematite as a substitution.

Like wise in business, if we want to profit, we must learn to be like the steel, with so many properties and benefits of the steel, suitable for all types of use, under the process of heat treatment, water cooling, heating again, tampering followed by welding to form into different grades of steel.

If we want to profit and be wealthy, we need to learn to bend it like steel, the properties of steel under the processing treatment, use strategies and reuse skills which can be applied to any business, platform to increase profits. To have the balls of steel, we first need to have guts to choose our own path, stick it out till we make it there.

Ask yourself what is your passion, what choices do you have, what skills do you currently possess, and what additional skills do you seek to learn and apply?

For entrepreneurship to take place, flexibility is crucial, embracing change and keeping up with times is important, but sticking to the basics and your true talents is the best choice and decision you will ever make.

The lifestyle you will lead depends only and solely on the type of employment you are in, the passion which you have in your heart. If you are unhappy with your employment, have no passion for anything, than it’s time for a change, if you want to, else remain happy and be contented to have a stable employment with fixed income.

Just do what you like, but ask yourself if that’s really and truly the life you desire.  It is better to die trying than to die regretting.

Management

posted by ryan

Relationship is an association of two or more people which is based on different purpose and bonding. It may be based on for business interactions, social commitments, interpersonal or intimate relationship.

Different purpose of relationship requires different methods of handling, and understanding how it works is the key to solving the root of the problems should it surface.

The root and basics of relationship management is to look at the difference between how a man and a woman handle relationship.

There is a common saying “Men can forget but they cannot forgive. Women can forgive but they cannot forget.”

During a courtship, there is both positive and negative behavior which we can learn from relationship. Relationship management is just like a business and it requires time, effort, commitment and collaboration from both parties to work.

In the process of the courtship, it is sweet, once the courtship is over and grow into a relationship before it evolve into a either a break-up or marriage followed by everlasting love if not separation followed by divorce.

The spectrum of transition of relationship is all about business transaction these days due to the change in culture and influences. Romance; love; commitment; responsibility; accountability ; management; operations; protection; expansion.  It is all about the cycle before it duplicates itself or it dies off.

Romance is sweet like an appetizer, a small dish to stimulate a desire for more.  It can be of in all flavors depending on the person’s character and personality. It is the selection of which appetizer is suitable for you like choosing a partner.

Once you take your pick, you start to taste it, the taste lingers in your mouth, either your taste buds accept it if not reject it. If you accept it, it starts to go inside, making you hungry wanting more increasing your appetite. It is the courtship whereby you want to consume it, but it just does not want you to know what the next dish is. With anticipation, the desire grows, like in a courtship, from hands to shoulders to waist, hips, kissing and other intimate actions translating romance into love.

Love is when you start to have the taste of the dish, and you ask for more, wanting the next dish to be served fast. Short light kiss becomes French-kissing and it proceeds further with hands into the picture. Like you start off with different breads, applying either butter or jam just simply hands and or with just a butter knife. As you progress, you start using tools to consume more and the tools get more, which is when intimacy increases and clothes start dropping piece by piece.

Commitment is when the main course get served, finally you see the dish in front of you, salivating, starts drooling and you can’t wait to consume the main dish. It is whereby clothes are completely removed; all you see in front of you is the naked body. Alluring, sexy with a sense of curiosity of how it will be like.

With a slice of cut on the meat, you put it into your mouth, its equivalent to making a commitment, a promise to your partner that you will stay by his/her side. Soon as you consume the main dish, you start to fell the slight fullness in your stomach. As foreplay moved into intercourse, the promise is made and commitment sets in.

Having finished the main course, the rest of the course can be predicted, with the delicious dish already served, whatever dish coming up next is just lighter in flavor then the main course which was just finished. Like after the intercourse, ejaculation sets in, satisfaction in both parties. The customer decides to stay till the end of the course, while the cook is happy that the customer enjoyed the main course.

With that, responsibility takes places. You will start discussing how nice the dish was previously, and perhaps next time your choice of dishes if you were to come back again. Similarly like how ladies like to hug their partners after it, lying on their partner’s chest or in the arms, looking into the eyes, smiling happily, chatting about the feelings during the intimate physical contact.

Accountability sets in soon after, like the dessert that’s coming up next, it can be of either hot or cold dessert to tantalize your taste buds usually ending with sweet desserts so the customer will come back for more. Like a happy couple resting in the comfort of each other, either one waking up slightly earlier to prepare breakfast for the other partner, leaving sweet memories and closing the chapter leaving wonderful and pleasant memories, allowing the couple to make plans for marriage.

Management is the bills of the whole set breakfast/lunch/dinner. Settling the bills, checking if the bill is right for any overcharging like a couple in bliss, planning for the next session with budgeting involved now.

Budgeting includes the promise and if the partner is responsible for his/her actions before a second and three set meal can be consumed together. Discussed wisely, the budget only gets sweet and larger with more commitments and responsibilities like choice of restaurant, if want to upgrade to a higher class restaurant paying for the service and ambiance similarly to discussion of settling down for a family.

Operations is how the restaurant runs the after sales service, the methods which they will offer to give you reasons to patronize the restaurant or their service again. It is when the partner shows his/her attention, care and concern for each other to make it work and have the relationship running smoothly without any food scraps getting stuck in between the teeth.

Protection is whereby restaurants come up with new dishes, promotions to attract and retain their valued customers. This is when business rivals surface allowing the customers to chance to taste other recipes and dishes. This will be when partners come up with new tricks such as new image, choice of clothes, some teasing, and new positions and change of environment to entice their own partners to stay faithful and loyal to each other.

Expansion is when the business is doing well; restaurant owner decides to open another outlet via franchise model duplicating their success. It is whereby both partners planting and wants seeds to be planted in the farmlands. For males, it’s to get the female pregnant, for females, it is to get married and the cycle continues, this time on the baby inside the womb.

Transactions are happening everyday, every second, how you run the business and how much you profit depends on you and nobody else. Learn management skills, it is the skill that is applicable to anything and everything.

Have a profitable business and a happy marriage. =)

Fellowship II

posted by ryan

Fellowship is the friendly companionship between friends, family and people and members in the same company, corporation or guild. It is the association of people having similar taste and interest who has form a group together.

It can also be based on a foundation for having awards and benefits for being in a corporation or guild working towards a common goal or purpose hand in hand together with helping one another.

There are two types of fellowship; one is purely for profits (money); the other one is for friendship and association and membership of a exclusive group.

Fellowship for money happens and forms when a group of like-minded people bond together, working hard to earn more money in the shortest period of time possible to satisfy their desire and needs thus they resort to fast quick methods etc which only makes them more busy without the time to enjoy their new hard earned money. Have money but no time to spend the money.

Fellowship for friendship is the one which everyone should be looking for. It is the building of alliance of respective individuals each with their entrepreneur business ideas working their own ways. In time to come, when individuals succeed, they who know each other previously and have help support one another in need, will become a force to be reckon with, building wealth, assets and lots of time to spare.

That is the secret to wealth and success, seek to form an alliance of like minded individuals, and encourage one another, so when companies are erected with each successful individuals, there’s more benefits to working together with trust that’s already built, and less time spend on unnecessary selling and negotiation about the details. Trust is the way and how things work. Abuse it once, and kiss goodbye to it forever.

If you have no idea what I’m talking about, read up this book on Starbucks, “Pour Your Heart Into It – How STARBUCKS Built A Company One Cup at a Time” by Howard Schultz and Dori Jones Yang.

Inside the book, it focus on getting to associate and know the right people to expand the business, some of which are partners whom they worked with together in the past.

Ask yourself what’s your passion, find and join a exclusive membership of an association of individuals each with their own vision but at the same time encouraging one another towards success.

The wealthy and successful people gets more wealth together with more time to spare while the poor gets more work load with less time to spare and it means to get busy and not time to spend the money he/she earn.

Do you want to be have both time and money (wealth) or do you want to have money but not time?

Pick either one of the above and work hard. Make the right choice, and choose a right mentor who can help you to succeed yet allowing you more time to increase your wealth by building more sources of income with one time effort, multiple times of profits.

Passion

posted by ryan

Passion is a powerful emotion, a feeling or desire, a strong or extravagant fondness and enthusiasm for something. It is the immersed emotion and enthusiasm that allows hobbies to stay alive and keep doing it without expecting anything in return.

Passion is a interest in whatever a person does, be it a job, hobby that he/she does for a living and is so enthusiastic about it that they do not mind working over time, not getting paid for doing what they love.

An example will be to be involved in a relationship, younger teenagers these days get into boy girl relationship for various reasons, of which most are due to immaturity in mindset together with their curiousness on how it feels like to be in one.

Boys go into relationship for pride and ego, not wanting to lose out to their peers, they just want to find a easy partner and do whatever they want with sweet talking a girl into the trap in some cases.

Girls get into relationship to be loved, to seek attention from her partner to compensate for her lack of attention and focus from both her parents.

Don’t believe me? Just look back and think about it. In the passed, boy-girl relationship only starts around sixteen to eighteen years of age for the earliest if not matchmaking for marriage purpose.

Teenagers are able to follow the natural genetics order of growing more mature than look for relationship because they get the attention, care plus love and concern from their parents back than when there was it was still possible for a family to depend on a sole bread winner to support the family.

These days, thanks to competition, both parents have to work hard, less family time together, lack of love, care and concern is the crucial factor leading to boy girl relationship. Just look around the students, those born and blessed with loving parents who pay attention to their kids will not have the need nor want to even get into a relationship because their body, the genes knows that it is not yet the time for romance. Its within everybody in our blood.

Passion can help us to succeed if applied correctly. Artist for example as an occupation is a great example for people to integrate both their passion and art work together as one, so they don’t mind the low pay and lack of exposure from local markets.

Once you identified your own passion, things will get done go smoother for you even if you face obstacles, it will be resolved in a matter of time often it goes away with a new idea that pops up in your mind.

I blog and hang around forums to discuss and share tips in those medias because I enjoy what I am doing without bothered for the returns. When you start giving, you will somehow receive back something, it does not need to be in monetary forms. It can be happiness, sense of satisfaction that just gets you moving and wanting to help more people.

Blogging initially was plainly for a replacement of their personal diary which started few years back, and soon it evolved into a fashion trend and evolved into technology with people jumping in without knowing why they even want to be part of it.

From blogging to micro-blogging with the introduction of Twitter, those doing blogging are considered out-dated. I don’t really care about it, because they are following the trend, exposing their personal lives daily activities to strangers, letting them know of their actions, throwing away their privacy rights which is silly.

Mirco-blogging just to get updated, it is more of a self-expression of our own thoughts than to be silly enough to post pictures, activities that will attract predators to prey on gullible individuals brushing with law.

Passion is the enthusiasm, not a fashion fad but a fashion trend which will go on and on with the right results. Bloggers who had the right thoughts about the origins of it, used blogging to start doing their own business and succeed, of which those featured in newspapers are single young mummies and its something which people should learn from.

Don’t follow others for wanting to be in the bandwagon of crowd not to be left behind. Instead why not think about how to brand and sell yourself? How you can profit from your passion, with the correct advice and guidance, everything is possible as long as you are willing to take a step forward and learn from people who has the related skills and ability to share with you.

Starbucks is so successful today because the CEO is so passionate about offering top quality coffee.

Donald J.Trump is so successful because he enjoys doing what he likes and that is to build properties just like his dad.

Bill Gates is successful because he made his vision into a reality with the help of his mom.

Facebook founder Mark Elliot Zuckerberg started the social media site as his Harvard controversy of the project which started purely just to keep in touch with his classmates.

If you want to be the next successful individual, find coaches and mentors who will guide you along by the hand. I’ve found my mentors, have you found yours yet?

If in doubt about yourself and your passion, fee free to contact me and I’ll get back to you shortly after. Either way, you can leave your comments just right below.

Find your passion and live your life without regrets.

Seek happiness in whatever you’re doing and not to be in misery doing what you detest most just for money.  Passion will lead you to wealth and successful with the right mentor coaching. Work will only lead you to a fraction of money.

Spot the difference identify your own passion and work towards it.

Freedom

posted by ryan

Freedom is the ability to do anything without being held back by the powers or ability or influence of anyone.

It is the ability to do as we wish without any limitations or obligations.

The older and wiser we grow up with time, the more freedom we seek. Freedom comes with a price, a heavy expensive price.

Expensive price is the reason wealthy and successful businessmen than can have the freedom.

People who are poor are trapped in their own invisible prison they built themselves. Working hard for a job, just getting paid peanuts, benefits being utilized greatly by employers it’s like rearing an elephant that can do so much work but only feeding it the required food and nothing additional beyond their diet.

People travel to break away from their barrier or prison which they built themselves. When they can’t afford for luxury items and expenditure, than will it be of a misery for such people.

When they are not able to fulfill their goals or give up, their determination changes to despair and with that feeling engraved in their mind, they than resort to negative methods to get what they want or they pay more than what they can afford to resulting in crimes and bankruptcy.

What hobbies you like determines the lifestyle you will live. It is similar to a pet owner buying a pet which he/her likes. With time and observation, you will notice that it is not coincidence that a pet owner purchases a pet displaying similar behaviors and habits like their owner. It is like a spoilt brat is all due to the failed upbringing of their parents who failed terribly to discipline and instill proper education to their children.

Look at the older generation of uncles in Singapore, those people who enjoy keeping singing birds in cages, taking them out on weekly basis to an area for singing birds to sing and show off their birds to others, thus making friends, deals of transaction etc. Hobbies to me are not only a simple affair, it is the reflection of your inner desire, the subconscious and your thinking, it has to do with psychology.

If you seek an expensive hobby and have strong desire and urge to realize it, than network and meet up with successful businessmen who can help you achieve your dreams of realizing your expensive hobby. It is only when you speak up your true desire, than your mind will really take it into serious consideration and the natural law of attraction (as shown in The Secrets) will automatically comes to you with opportunities, provided you must grab it tightly.

Only when you hang around with people who have attain such results deem impossible by many, than the odds of success increases and is on your side, because the successful people will not only encourage you, but also give you a helping hand when you show with actions and trust with time and commitment, the delegation to helping yourself first before anything else.

To the successful and wealthy businessmen, anything is possible as long as you work towards your goal whereas for the poor people, everything is impossible and beyond their reach plus the common phrase they always say, don’t be crazy, stop day-dreaming which only put them one more step closer to living with regrets and misery.

Do you want to fly like the eagle in the sky or do you want to craw on the ground like a centipede cutting each others throat for survival? Be magnificent and be admired or be a beautiful poisonous creature that nobody wants to avoid?

Posers

posted by ryan

Posers are people, who put on a false, fake impression of success, who are actually in financially tight situation.

People want to look good, have big cars, house, live in style, walk with style and want to look like a rich person who can easily be done, but they cannot and will never ever mimic a wealthy person filled with nothing but success with an aura surrounding successful wealthy people. Anywhere they walk, heads will turn even if they are in causal attire, eyes will be cast on these individuals and their presence is felt.

Look at the society we are living in right now, so many posers using ‘fake’ products to pass off as real products wanting to look good and feel good.

My definition of ‘fake’ is those brands and labels that are genuine products but they cater to general majority with average price tags yet wanting to give people the look and feel of a luxury brand which is impossible. No matter how hard these brands try, they will never ever get there, thus it’s why I say ‘fake’.

Just talk to any one who wants to buy a car, brands will be replaced with characters as precaution of lawsuit.

Question: What car do you like? F or S?

Response: I will choose S, just pay lesser, put on turbo, and pick up speed already faster than F. Why be so stupid to pay so high for F when I can have S running faster than F?

When I hear this type of conversation, inside my mind, I only see them as hypocrites who not only want to deceive themselves but also trick others into believe it is.

I feel that it’s not even worth comparing, a low class brand car comparing against a luxury sports car which cost at least a million. There’s nothing to compare to being with, but the poor people just want to have, ego thus they make such a comparison which to me only rings one word “losers” inside me and I’m sure I certainly don’t want to be associated with such people.

Just look at the car industry, how many low class affordable car brands are coming up with designs that portrays class, and wants to mimic the style of the luxury branded cars? There are many but they can keep trying and they will never ever able to reach there, solely because they are bluff themselves that they are living the lifestyle they desire by just seeking a look-a-like not knowing how to go about achieving it, nor accepting facts.

Cars are for the middle class status people.

Low class status people also have their own ways to tricking themselves not wanting to accept reality which is why they are always the group complaining asking for help expecting to be helped without first helping themselves.

Look at a average family. People who wants to assume a higher status in the family, will start to buy bigger television, bigger cups, bigger house upgrade and taking bank loans to stretch their loans to just nice afford it wanting to look like they deserve and have no problem paying it but in fact are struggling miserably. I will spare the details since I myself am from a middle class lowest level status, but I once used to be a middle class, with high class status family relatives.

Having experience all different classes of lifestyle, their home, I know how they work, what they think etc. Just observe and it’s all shown in the actions without any words needed.

Being in a lower status doesn’t mean there’s no possibility of upgrade and move to high class, but it’s a long difficult process, and often people say, whoa, this lucky bastard made it overnight without knowing how much effort, time they put in.

Read my other blog entries, it took me a long, long time to change my mindset to be like a rich, without the mindset change, nothing is possible. It took me years, but when I make it, I am most happy to share the steps I took. If you want to join my growth together with me, there’s more advantage now than when I’ve made it.

Helping one another is what I like most, and having people who are open to accept help makes me most happy.

Do you want to be a poser or the real deal? You decide who you want to be and who to learn from.

Big

posted by ryan

In life, everything we do, we want a bigger share of the slice, be it business, relationship, food, home or assets, we never fail to desire and seek for bigger and better items to indulge ourselves in especially luxury and pleasure and holidays traveling.

Big is important, the bigger items and assets you possess, the bigger you influence will have on other businesses. Being successful with results will attract more talents below you, wanting to learn the steps from you.

With more influential power, the ability to influence and the words creating stir among people, when this phenomenon happens, you will soon be on your way to be a outstanding person commanding respect, fellowship of seekers wanting to be kept under your wings.

Big are not rocket science, but a gradual genetic thirst and intense urge of desire to increase our share in whatever we do. This happens even in the cat family, tigers, lions, leopard and jugular and among the reptiles. The bigger they grow, the larger stomach they have, the increase of volume in food or prey they target.

Growing bigger is a natural progression, if you don’t seek to improve your standards of living and lifestyle, denying yourself, your body and your genes of the natural instincts to grow and get stronger, you of course will get weaker as each day pass, and be consumed by other larger animals.

Big is beautiful. It happens in both genders.

Females seek beauty in terms of both physically, and deeper wallet size to allow them to spend happily swiping the credit cards on a shopping spree thus ladies will naturally without fail look up to a man who can provide financially for the ladies. Even if there’s no love, the lady will still stick to the man who’s the provider. This again is inside the genes, since apes gradually evolve into barbarians than to modern man today.

Males without say look for materialistic gains but by being practical and doing it within their ability in terms of assets, wealth, influential power, commanding respect from people, get acknowledgment from even their competitors.  Respect comes not from being able to earn money, but is built when they are entrusted with secrets that ties to reputation and they will not try to oust out a fellow competitor via underhand tricks such as accusations, piracy etc.

Look at Tiger Woods incident, the sex addiction scandal was not at all surprise among the golf professionals in the inner circle of the golf association, in fact other golf professionals even helped Tiger to cover up for his personal life matters. Personal and business issues will never ever be mixed together, that’s one rule of alpha males, an unspoken rule binding all successful professionals together.

There were news articles reports which mention about this, and also on reports that the ladies regretted not listen to the advice to remain silence in return for money benefits and choose to reveal it to the media. Why the regrets, read newspapers to find out more, I know it, because I’ve read that book which told me all about the unspoken rules of alpha males which was meant for ladies, but I borrowed it to read and gain unlimited wisdom and in-depth understanding.

The reason why businessmen never fails to be a sore topic among ladies claiming for equality is already written all over different books, but they just don’t spread out, thus when men see such things, they are often ignored. The unspoken language of the successful wealthy businessmen, to be like them, if ladies can’t beat them, why not join them but first thing first, there are lots of steps to take to be able to join the bandwagon.

The core reason why people always say businessmen and not businesswomen is solely because it’s a fact that alpha males rule the world, not the government, the holder of wealth calls the shot. To win the game, you first have to learn the rules of the game. Not learning yet playing will only result in unfavorable results working against you.

Alpha male value honor and integrity while beta males, alpha females and females will just take it with a pinch of salt and do steps that sabotage and ruin their own future without anybody doing anything.

Learn the rules of the game, if you don’t be prepared to be left behind and you will not even notice who speed up the process even if the compliance and person who wants to get rid of you are standing in front of you.

To survive, learn the rules and stick to it or you will be axed in an instant without knowing who and why.
