Developed

posted by ryan

Developed is the status given to countries with high gross domestic product GPD per capita which refers to nations with high development according to some criteria.

A developed country has other means of measurement industrialization has a part contributing the economy boosting the financial status and capability of individual countries. The other measure associated with developed nation will be the human development index which combines the economic, nation, life expectancy and other measures factored in.

Being a developed country has got its pros and cons. Pros is more beneficial towards the nation, politicians, businesses and government, and  cons is more towards the poor, majority of employees who cannot benefit in any way regardless of the country being under developed, developing or developed nation.

Poor is not a good thing, and it certainly isn’t good to be poor in a developing if not developed nation. In such a developed country, there will be intense competition for business and profits. The most inflated assets becomes overpriced will be a home.

Home is the shelter which everybody needs and thus either you are rich or poor, you cannot avoid not buying it. The only difference is that the rich can afford with the inflated pricing but not the poor.

The more competition the country has, the higher the inflation is. Just look at Hong Kong, Russia, ask them how small is their home is, sixty to seventy meters are the size which average income earners can afford to buy.

Singapore is heading towards a near developed national but we are still holding onto the developing nation status. Just look at the way the homes are built in the past versus currently and the trend of the homes versus the price.

There is not doubt, homes are highly inflated, while they remains the same price, the square meters are dropping by at least thirty percent and more. Just couple of years back, the norm of purchasing a home, the standard size should be at least a thousand square meters, but over the past two to three years, kitchens, living room, rooms, and even washroom get downsized, but the price still remains the same giving a false impression that there is not any inflation.

All these are just decoys, sales gimmicks which all businesses employ to trick those gullible people.

There was a news article which I read some time back which made me laughed. That article was about a block of apartments of six to seven hundred square meters of size being sold at a much higher price tag for the same amount with a home for at least a thousand square meters of size in the same area. The irony is those small homes get snap up much faster than homes which a bigger size despite it being more expensive!!

An example will be in the past comparison of an old three room apartment built in the 1980s versus the ones which has the same size of a current four room apartment built in the after the millennium. Just look at the newly built versus the older generation apartments, compare the windows, put your thumb against the windows from your vehicle or when you happen to pass by in public transport.

Older apartment’s windows can cover around the size of our thumb while the newer generation of apartments, their windows are smaller than our thumb, to me, newly built apartments are like pigeon holes for birds to live, not us, but funny thing is, we have no choice but to move in since there isn’t any other choice left, neither was I in control of wanting to move or not.

When I read that article, I was wondering if adults are smart or are the developers smarter but since I’m already as of a adult age, I know I am definitely not going to be among those intelligent adults buying a expensive apartment with lesser space just because of the sales hyped up buzz of thanks to the media which created a sales frenzy.

If you understand what I mean, spread news of this blog post to your beloved family and friends, help them save money and prevent those developers from ripping our money off our wallets just because they don’t know that they are suffering a loss on each purchase of flat yet they are smiling and thank you the property agents who are in fact making their clients poorer.

I don’t know how smart we ourselves are, but if you want to help yourself, your friends and family save money, than tell them about the trend of property size are descending while price is ascending thus price inflation on all apartments.

Spread the word to save money. Don’t rush into buying homes if they are just building smaller homes and jetting up the prices. Practice delay-gratification, it will help you save hell lots of money. Trust me on this.

There was once when a blocks of flats in a are of Singapore that was not popular in the launch couple of years back, with only less than ten occupants which made that area looked like a ghost town, which made developers to relook at their layout, design before new apartments were built soon after with numerous other strategies to push for the sales of the unsold apartments which was featured in the newspapers.

The moral of the story and lesson learnt, do not rush into buying homes, if you don’t like it, don’t buy it that will force developers to rethink and relook at their product (apartments) which they are selling.

Survival

posted by ryan

Survival is skill. It is the process of surviving unusual circumstances, dangerous situation or even natural disasters.  It is the techniques to provide basic necessities like food, water and shelter to get help.

Under certain conditions either as mention above or when chased out for a community, a person or any living organism will try their very best to live, that is a genetic system build in most of the living organisms in particular man.

In the documentary show on Okto “Is It Real: Federal Children”, it highlights different previous cases of children who were left in the care of animals, learning their language and some eventually landed up in mental institutions as their caregivers give up.

To survive and live on means to find food, water and shelter, it is already being programmed in our mind. Inside the mom’s womb, in the case of a twins, they will fight for survival in food and space, thus sometimes, moms give birth to twins of different size and weight due to food and space competition.

After birth, the mind is fine tuning the brain wires to learn and accept whatever knowledge and education in the crucial few months to first few years of life.

Before and after birth, the first few years are critical in picking up new skills and knowledge, in this documentary case example, it is the ability to learn and master human language since the federal children are being bought up by dogs, wolfs or relatives from the money family.

Brain is a wonderful organ, which can also rewire itself to adapt to changes which explains why people either upgrade or downgrade themselves in terms in intellectual wisdom and behavior by mixing and learning from the group of people they hang around with.

A person who once experienced a accident, causing bones fracture and damage to the brain thus during the healing process, the body needs to relearn how to walk in road accidents cases. This is when the brain will retune and rewire itself to adapt to learn new things unless that particular learning section of the brain is damaged.

Before I side track too much, lets get back to the topic on survival, as it suggest, our brain are programmed to seek for necessity to give us food, water and shelter. In particular to shelter, this covers the area of attention, care and concern which is just being discussed briefly in the show which I will write more in depth about it.

Shelter to my understanding thanks to the documentary show is defined by care and concern being showered to a infant/child by showing love and attention. When this attention and love is missing from the equation, which maybe a result of abusive parents or lack of attention from both working parents, it will lead to more complications which we see in Singapore these days which is sexual related problems.

Sex itself covers a wide array of topics. The core fundamentals of sex boils down to love and attention, when people will start searching for love and attention from whatever source available which will give us what we seek thus the reason why these days, boys and girls often get into boy-girl relationship.

Reason is simple, to compensate for the lack of attention and love from their caregivers who are their parents, grandparents or relatives and adoptive parents.

Children are being neglected due to intensive global competition for money which converts to bread and bacon for the family thus parents as care-givers have no choice but to seek employment for income to bring the bread and bacon back home.

Looking at the perspective of adults and parents, they are not wrong, and it is their mind, the already programmed system to seek for food, which comes from work to get money thus sexual related problems which we have in Singapore and in other countries is a global problem and is not exclusively to a country.

It is the basis of survival, in order to tackle the problem of sexual related issues, we need to go back to the basics, provide attention and love to the children which are near impossible given the competition from both local and foreign talents for the same piece of pie.

There are many ways to go about and provide a solution to sexual related issues to cut the roots of the problem, but that I will keep it secret till the time for me to offer it as a business product and services for the solution.

If you who is reading this post is a parent, try your best not to neglect your children else problems will gradually crept up to you for your ignorance and those problems will only show up when your children grows up. So if you know the cause already from my post, start showing more attention and love to your children.

Work towards having a blissful family which will solve the root of the problem.

Succession

posted by ryan

Succession is the order or line of those entitles to succeed one another, whereby assets and liabilities are inherited and passed on to the next successor.

Business requires successor so as to further expand the business for continuous growth into millions, billions and even trillions worth of business entity.

In order to do so, a succession plan and course of action has to be put in place before the problem even surface. Planning strategies are the surest and best way to allow the system to be in a prime position to become the next supreme leader in any arena for growth.

It also takes place in families whereby assets are frequently argued and snatched among family members when a elder family member is about to leave. Than the liabilities which often come with health care etc usually gets pushed and kicked around like a soccer ball to one another.

If you have experiences of such events and happens to be part of the process, you will understand why the wealthy and successful people are who they are today whereas the poor only take the assets and kick away the liabilities.

It is their reluctance to learn how the liabilities became a issue and solve it like a bomb disposal squad thus in future there will not be any impending bombs of liabilities growing without your knowledge.

That’s the benefits of absorbing liabilities; learning from other people’s mistakes is the best way to cut short our learning curves.

Foundation

posted by ryan

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.

Reflect

posted by ryan

Reflect is to reproduce, rebound, mirrored and to give back or show an image. When we look at the mirror, it gives us a reflection of ourselves with an image of how we look.

It also serves as a form of mediation to reflect on one’s virtues and faults. Whatever we do reflects what we learn from our own family upbringing and education we learn. It is an aspect or impression of how well or poor we do in anything, for an example, the project’s success reflects well on your abilities.

Reflections are what we see around us everyday but how many times do we actually slow down our pace and take a look at our past actions and reflect on how we can improve ourselves for the better?

No many people do self reflection in fact, instead of doing so, they blame others, taking their own faults and claiming it to be others by implicating and pulling others into the picture via expanding and fault finding like a amplifier or loudspeaker to make everybody know what is happening.

Blame is like the junior of reflection, whereby from reflection than will we gain wisdom and improve while the former will only increase our problems.

By mediating, which the monks does regularly, they attain a higher level of wisdom and intelligence thus they are free from corruption, greed and money despite the major influence on capitalism throughout the world and yet Buddhism or the Shao Lin Shi in China is still going strong and has greatly influence many other nations and individuals to join if not to learn about it and even Americans are learning marital arts from China which is the spark to USA’s interest in China whereby white skin start to change their views about the yellow skin. I am not being racist or anything but it is just facts which we all have to accept, with Shao Lin Shi’s acceptance and willingness to share etc, it is what open the window to sharing, mutual beneficial win-win situation etc. It is only when we ignore all those skin colour, religion practice and accept one another that allow us to gain wisdom and intelligence beyond what schools teach.

Mediation is a art, it is something that can be taught, self-learned and picked up easily as long as the person is interested in learning it, with mediation, seeking the inner peace, thus reflecting on their past actions and coming to a truce with whatever they are doing to walk on a path of improving themselves regardless of the sins they did in the past.

It is to admit and agree totally that it is their own fault for the whatever situation they are in presently based on their past actions. Than with mediation, do soul searching and look back in their mind and see themselves on what exactly did they do, how they do it etc. It is like piecing up all your past memories together and watching the memories unfold themselves in your mind like watching a movie of yourself as a lead and learning from your own mistakes.

Everybody will surely be able to do soul searching at the one critical point in our own lives and that is when we are at the brink of death, either when we are about to die peacefully, or from accident and being rushed to hospitals (touchwood) etc.

It is something which we all can do everyday, every second as long as we want to do it. The catalyst to success starts from reflecting on yourself and martial arts is one way which we can cultivate both mind body and soul.

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.

Small

posted by ryan

Small is what majority of the people don’t like, but in monetary size, it is welcomed by bankers, businessmen, designers and fashion professionals whereas average people like to have big bigger items and ownership thus they spend more.

The trail to wealth and successful starts from being small to big, from a small business and expand it into bigger business. Rich people start big, and grower bigger without learning the technician issues with starting from small thus they lack the foundation to go from small to big, and contribute to their failure to come back successful after once declared a bankrupt.

Look around the people who you know who invested capital into businesses. Those who jump into the boss category start by throwing in lots of hard earn savings from friends, family relatives and parents. They never once know the pains and labour of managing everything themselves, thus in the event should they want to cut cost, they don’t know how to do it themselves and thus with lots of weakness themselves, the business collapse and never picked up again.

Lost of trust and savings from their closed loved ones is part of the reason. Failure to cut cost is another reason, not knowing the basics and how the business really works from the insider trade secrets is the fatal flaw and the mistake which small business investors failed in.

In the world of property, starting small is essential, but recognize the fact of Singapore versus other countries, It is common for us and in Asia those developing countries to have big homes at a affordable price, needless to say, China has the largest yet extremely affordable price to those homes.

As Singapore economy progress, so does the homes, there are inflation which are obvious to people as home buyers but from gullible home buyers, they feel that it’s value for money, but due to demand and supply, buyers are ignorant of the facts thus they never fail to push the sales of property up and speculation etc.

Singapore property is going from average size to smaller size homes yet commanding a higher price tag, reason, lack of land, more demand for their own home, high demand not desired, low supply of desired homes thus there are huge demands for homes near their relatives etc and rules implemented to assist people to encourage family bonding etc.

Look at Singapore’s property market, the square feet of the home, previously average was 100+ square meters, now it is slowly reducing to slightly less than 100 square meters. Look into future, it will be super cramped and commanding a high price tag like Hong Kong a pigeon home all squeezed inside..else look at Russia first world economy status, their homes average square meters was only sixty square meters, extremely packed yet cost so much more.

Successful and wealthy businessmen always believe in “Less Is More” and this is true and will withstood the test of time, thus quality is always more important than quantity. Look at the different types of food business, markets, coffee shops and food courts are all offering affordable food that’s no longer cheap like few years back and they get more portion. They run the business longer than average, wants more customers with larger portions and serving for coffee shop business owners, to earn more, they earn by quantity thus they can’t offer quality.

Food and Beverage industry will know, increasing the business profits by setting a time limit of two hours for whole course of Chinese New Year set lunch or dinner package, some restaurants who wants to squeeze more profits than lower the limit to a hour so every hour, new batch of customers come in, their profits are up making huge profits during the Chinese New Year season.

If you look at high class restaurant, they however are super successful yet able to retain their high class standards and price without having the rush hour kind of environment because of the way they do business. The customers are king, no time limit, only appointment basis, once it’s fully booked, they will not make excuses to force customers to leave restaurant unless they are happy to leave. Never mind if the food portion is small, but the value of the food it commands is of high end standards and grade thus accountable and justified for the pricing thanks to benchmarking.

Paying more for class, service standards, ambiance and the luxury of time is what amounts to the difference between high-class restaurants versus average restaurants.

Look at different business model and how they operate and you will realize how wealth is really generated.

Balance

posted by ryan

Balance is about equilibrium with equal distribution of weight distributor to achieve balance.

Everything must be balanced, and there must not be bias on any side but in reality, it isn’t possible to strike a balance unless we control our own source of income, wealth and time by working for ourselves and not for our boss.

At work, government across and all over the globe always talk about having a balance working life, which is nonsense, if they want to get paid via tax thus they have money, they have to think of ways to allow business to have more employees thus more tax will be received from everybody making them richer but not wealthier since government are not experts at wealth and financial management.

The true experts of wealth and financial management are the billionaires and multi-millionaires. Millionaires are not included in my theory because millionaires can be done alone with hard work while multi-millionaires cannot.

News reports of financial crisis, great depression, stock crisis, commodity shortage thus causing sky rocketed cost of food and basic ingredients such as sugar, salt, and oil at times are the solid proof that government leaders are just ordinary people like you and me in the streets. They know nothing about real wealth management. They can make mistakes and push the blame to somebody else by military or keep it within the walls of each respective country as top secrets etc, and the best part, they don’t get fired because they need to retain ‘talents’ who are just sadly ill-trained professionals who knows only theory but not practical experience whatsoever.

Such people in the government do not and will not know how to balance the equilibrium and will continue to make mistakes than push it to others, got let somebody be the scapegoat taking the blame while opening a back-door to the person who help them take the rap.

The Lehman Brothers is a typical example of ill trained professionals who cause the world economy to share the rap and consequences of their actions, sparking a crisis with more problems in western countries than Asian countries.

With US government using tax-payers money to bail out the companies that didn’t do a proper job to save employments, when this happens, it is debt sharing, and passing the debt to the majority of the people. Take the total sum of money USA used and divide among the US population, and you know on average how much a US citizen helps the government to pay off the debts, which is why the US presidential election is all about, getting the consent of every citizen for approval by votes.

In Asian countries, it is run with a slightly different practice, because of the lack of politicians, and leaders, whatever mistakes they made, it will be compromised because there are no successors to take over thus they can continue making mistakes and nobody can do anything because they lack the higher appointment to veto the politician out immediately. Business and politics will never be able to work together due to a conflict of interest and why Warren Buffett initially decline President Obama request to lead the US in terms of investment options.

At work, health and family, it is all about striking a balance but it is not possible to do it because not possible to do so as business is all about profits and family work balance must be compromised in order to meet quota set by the company and the management else face the risk of being fired.

The only possible way to attain work life and family plus health balance is to work for ourselves, and find alternative income source to have flexible work time, have a business system to have it running on automatic basis so to allow equal balance.

The alternative is via internet marketing, and multi-level marketing (MLM) which requires no boss, no fixed timing, efforts and pay are justified by the amount of commitment they put in which is why news articles in Singapore have mention successes in blogging stay home young mothers who are IT savvy. MLM however has created tremendous success that can’t be overlooked but it is treated with negativity thus people are not receptive to it.

Education is all about helping ourselves to earn more money, but why and how did people think that it’s only right to help boss earn money and not help themselves? Are you slapping yourself in the face? Wake up to the reality and face it. If you at any one time want to deny facts, you will be a loser and loser will only suffer in misery and nothing else.

Do you want to seek balance in live which will encourage good health or do you want to continue to work your guts out risking your health helping your boss get rich, and not helping yourself?
