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.

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.

Revenge is to harmful action in response to a grievance. It is to let the wrongdoer suffer the same or greater pain than that which was originally inflicted for the suffering, pain, torture and humiliation a person has gone through.

Revenge falls into two types, positive and negative.

Negative revenge is whereby the sufferer is determined to get back to the wrongdoer paying any price to the extent of death and dragging the wrongdoer down together with the sufferer together.

Positive revenge is whereby the sufferer will undergo a complete transformation and shed of its previous skin, learn new business skills and traits whatever is required to succeed and topple the wrongdoer legally and get their hands back on the property, assets that the sufferer once possess if not for the wrongdoers actions.

Once the sufferer is ready to make the move for revenge, the land mines are all ready set and position in place, which is a method whereby all alpha males does but they do it so brilliantly that nobody except those who speak and know their language will understand with the help of their networks to other business partners thus blacklisting any individual who will serve as a treat to ruin their reputation which is why wealthy successful businessmen always hang around each other, helping one another.

Helping one another to succeed is the way and how things works, you can’t climb up the ranks by upsetting other people. Do your best to create all win situation, even in employment, it is a huge win to a win situation in a employer employee relationship thus when both sides are happy, they profit together even if the compensation isn’t really that equally distributed but at least everyone is ‘happy’.

To prevent employees from stealing or using trade secrets, make sure they are satisfied with the compensation to prevent employees turning their back against their former employer and stealing their business.

Whatever you do, do it gracefully without offending anybody, else when the time and opportunity comes, you who have a dark history will suffer the consequences of your actions previously.

Revenge can be the catalyst to entrepreneurship if done the correct way and with proper guidance and coaching.

Never be offensive unless and until provoked.

Help is the act of either giving or provide what is necessary to accomplish a task or a need, to render assistance to people who need it.

It also make life less difficult and reliving them off their illness, pain and sufferings.

Help is everywhere and anywhere. Are you the person who likes to help and advise people or are you one who only likes to receive help and assistance from others and never give back any?

Help is a two way thing. The more people you help, the more people will help you succeed. The more reluctance you show in refusing to help others, the same others will show to you.

Look at businessmen. They are setting up businesses, helping many people in different areas. By employing employees, they are helping the majority of the people to get paid if they are willing to work hard for the company, and in return they get money to bring bread and butter back home to the family.

By doing business, providing service and solutions to help solve business partners’ problems, they are helping others again, and in return they get money (profits) back in return.

By lending a hand in charity with money, they help people in extreme poverty get fed with food and basic supplies, they didn’t expect anything in return, but than others see it, than again they are helping themselves.

The return favor of helping comes back to the business in the form of recognition, branding and position which is goodwill, building a reputable brand for the country, individual or business, the more low-profile you are, the more happiness you will get and more rewards will come back to you.

Not everything comes back from helping in the form of money, but the values and reward to helpful people and businesses will end up with much more than what they offered.

When individuals and business do charity, they can reduce their tax for that year too from the government and more support from the leaders governing the countries with more benefits in future. There’s nothing to lose in helping but a lot more to gain.

Exercise caution when you offer and extend a helping hand. Never ever help any individual that refuse to accept your help and stretching out their hand. If they reject you, so be it, there are others who will gladly accept and appreciate your help.

Practice selectively helping, else you will be abused too. Example: You don’t go around helping people in the brink of bankruptcy when they didn’t learn their mistakes or lessons. The more you offer help, the more you’re digging your own grave to perish together with the people facing bankruptcy at the expense of your financial help.

You will not help people who don’ t share the same vision, goals as you (only applicable to businesses only). If you’re into philanthropy, than just do it as long as it is within your means and financial ability allows. Spending and spreading wealth wisely to those deserving of a chance to succeed and grow.

Do not help people who will turn their backs on you, a real life betrayal of unconditional help will be USA. They who believe in their religion believe in helping anyone and everyone, and the help they offered get abused in this case example.

USA trained Osama Bin Laden, who in turn became a real ring leader in terrorist who betrayed USA’s kind intentions, war breaking out among Iran, Iraq, and neighbouring countries suffer in some ways.

So select carefully and help, don’t help people who act like they need help but with hidden agenda that go against your vision, principles and directions which again leads me to entrepreneurship.

Choosing the right business partners, help people who accept your help and not people who only want to make use of your help, be selective and test their intentions if needed.  Choose the right business partner and your life plus wealth will be made much easier, choose and make the wrong choice or decision, and you have hell of a time like USA still trying to capture Osama Bin Laden who may still be hiding inside the mountains underground and in the caves etc.

Perseverance is continuance persistence in a course of action, a purpose in spite of difficulties and obstacles.

Obstacles are there and in everywhere for a reason, each and every obstacles and set-back you encounter at work, business or entrepreneurship process is a tell tale sign that people have stopped at this step, and given up. When people give up, it creates a problem for the others who are in the line, the person who removes the obstacles will have a smooth route to walk instead of just walking over, the jungle trail with small rocks which might cause you your life in times of danger when you’re chased by a wild hungry beast. A small stone is all that it takes to make you trip over and be devoured by the hungry beast.

The person who picks up the obstacles, understand it, learn how the problem started, find a remedy, than move on, help make the route smoother not only for yourself, but for the others taking the same trail you have once walked on.

Perseverance is good, but again in the minds of people who are poor, they only complicate and don’t really find nor ask about the real essence of the word and just use it without understanding it thus they are having problems struggling with bringing the bread and butter back home.

There are two versions to every single word in different people’s mind. Positive or negative, similar if not identical to the angel or devil; god or demon, it all holds the same meaning, with slight difference in understanding the idea of the single word leads to different course of actions and results.

Positive perseverance is to work hard despite people throwing wet blanket, splashing cold water on you when you know you’re doing the right thing, which others have yet to proof it. Be the first person to prove you’re right, than others will agree with you, money, wealth and success will follow and haunt you chasing after you.

Negative perseverance is to work hard despite you already know that what result you will be getting, and the result will never ever change regardless of how hard you work in an employment. There is a limit to everything the day you are in an employee quadrant. You get the same pay, even if you get a pay rise, your pay will be similar to the previous person, and you can’t set your own pay limit.

If you seek to improve and increase your success, wealth, learn to take risk and enjoy the rough ride of a lifetime. Once you master the skill, it will be yours forever, thus the wealthy get wealthier, it’s all about duplication. Look at fast food restaurants, hotel chains, property business owners, what did they do?

All they did is to master a skill which is tested proven to work and profit, repeating it again and again while increasing the scale of the project to increase profits and have more wealth flowing towards them. Businessmen are successful too in their way because they continue to build bigger better enterprise with the knowledge of what works and what don’t. It is as simple as it looks, but it is a mastery of skills and the art of perfection that is not simple and takes years of hardwork.

Whenever a problem pops out, solve it, stay positive, and make sure you ask if in doubt, to capture and understand the true definition to a word which you may have misinterpreted it already leading you to failure. Ask until you understand the word and know how to look at it from different perspective without clouding your mind with negativity. Convert any and every negative into positive and you will be positive, armed and equipped with positive mindset, perseverance will show you the route to success one day.

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.

Money is the common language regardless of boundaries as long as we all live in modern civilizations than we have a simple way to go shopping even if we don’t know how to speak their native language.

Armed with just a calculator, all you need is to press the buttons, show to the vendor and point to the item you want, than the vendor will take the calculator, clear the screen and key in the price he/she can accede to, sometimes leaving tactics are used to make the vendor sell it off at a cheaper price if the business show signs of not doing so well.

Everything we do, we earn money, buy food, study, survival, happiness, all requires money. There was once when money isn’t a need or a want, because back than, being self sufficient was still able to meet ends needs so it was more on relationship and helping one another. That particular era, had left and evolved thanks to the hindsight of the leaders of nations, but it may look like they are helping the country to progress, but it has a selfish agenda behind it also. Taking away the rights to be self-sufficient, by having their own land, set up their own stalls, don’t need to pay tax, earning their own keep, that was before and after WWII era, when I wasn’t born.

That time was the period whereby entrepreneurship flourishes and lots of successes all around. That time, money although was important, but it isn’t as important as the bonding people have in the older generation. In today’s world, to get wealthy and successful, we need to take back what we own from our nation leaders if not buy over the rights permanently, our country Singapore isn’t fully theirs yet, as there are still plots of lands belonging to a few individuals who didn’t think nor is intelligent enough to have foresight and hindsight to profit from their assets which are billions if not trillions dollars worth.

Less than a handful of individuals still own their own assets, land, plots of land which was passed down from generations, some siblings may have agreed to government ‘kind intentions’ that’s filled with hidden agenda, but it’s a willing party, so who to blame except for their ignorance and greed for instant gratification, not taking into consideration of what happens to their next few generations which are the difference between poor and wealthy mindset of people that makes them who they are.

When you show that you can depend on yourself, your assets to survive, you will be the natural king leader attracting followers, as the others must depend if not learn from you how to be self-sufficient, but no matter how they learn, they can learn everything, but they can’t take away the ownership of the land that’s exclusively to the land owner, not the government unless they surrender the rights to it.

Once you surrender your rights to the ownership, they may make it look like it’s a win-win situation, but look, you benefit only one miserable time, whereas government benefit forever having 25years leasehold, 99years leasehold, freehold properties, selling lands to big MNCs for hundred year period, than take it back. Look, if you know how to profit, wealth will find you once your brain is tune and adjusted correctly and money will follow if not haunt you, that is why the wealthy successful businessmen always fail in one thing, to spend away all their wealth which just keeps growing on its own after the ball has started rolling. That’s the one and only failure I notice that the wealthy and successful businessmen all have in common, but hey at least it’s a positive failure.

So if you still want to be wealthy go buy over lands from other countries while you still can, make sure you know how to manage your land for maximal profitability and in accordance with the owner decision and plans with the plot of land so as to have win-win situation.

When I have the money, I will also move to the place I want to live, a place where government cannot do anything there, since government don’t own the land there yet, I hope I can generate enough money to support myself and be a resident there in Singapore, earning my own keep while my wealth generation system is still running and spreading the essential tools for wealth and success provided the person is still alive and have yet to surrender the rights on death.

Money is not everything, but without money, you can’t buy anything.

Vision is the act or power of anticipating what will or may come to be often said that entrepreneurs are visionaries. It is a vivid imaginative conception or anticipation with visions of wealth and glory.

Vision isn’t possible without dreams. Only with dreams than vision is possible. Dreams are the catalyst to react with action, application to form a vision which an entrepreneur sees.

Dreams cannot be shared it’s just all in the mind playing games only. Vision on the other hand is different. Once a vision is shared among a group of like-minded people, it creates a collective group of people working towards a common goal. A team is formed, and with more people having the same goal, its influence is greater and denser with the ability to influence more people to accept their vision and work together towards a common and greater goal of success.

Visions are the catalyst to entrepreneurship. If you can’t see yourself to be on the top sharing successes helping others who helped you, than there’s no joy in reaching the top if nobody is celebrating your success together with you as a group.

At times when the vision seems too far-fetch, than entrepreneurs will use another term, foresights, seeing what is to become in future tense and drawing up steps on how to make it a reality by implementing steps necessary and gradually to morph it into a reality with time and patience.

Vision works well with foresight, one who can looks into the future, identify the future, shape it will be the winner. Look at Bill Gates, one a college drop-out now a billionaire having his computer operating system in majority of the computers worldwide until the rise of the Apple Mac-book Steve Jobs the founder of Apple computer and forerunners of super cool information technology processes and ideas.

If visions don’t work, work on foresight instead, it is something that is much closer and has higher possibility than visions which some people might think it’s impossible.
