How dear they are..close to our hearts and mind..

At times..they may seem so distant…

Some times..when incidents happen..flashbacks from memories seems so vivid and clear..like they just happen in front of your eyes..

Memories while they do not directly help me to make money..but having the ability to store memories is important, as we all learn from experiences, and such experiences are important to prevent us from repeating the same mistake twice..

Less than 10mins ago, I managed to re log in into my first blog site which was created so many years back..since year 2005..gosh..how long was that ago..

Looking back at those past pictures which brings me happy memories, but they are not the same like before..

People change, Buildings aged, and are left vacant..friendships don’t really last unless people really do have the bonding like before..but as i meet different people, some how i realized that friendship is something that money can’t buy..

Real friendship is something that despite years of absence and lack of contact, the bond will still be there..that’s the real friendship which we should be after..I’m lucky enough to learn this..

A friend in need, Is a friend in deed..

No words spoken, it’s just the bond that bond old friends together. Memories..so close yet so far.. Priceless. .

Answer in dictionary terms has different meanings and it can be a reply to a question; a solution to a problem, a response to something or retaliation when faced with opposition or in defense of oneself.

Over the past few weeks of absence with full use of notebooks, time and thoughts set in with more rooms to think.

As I look back, I’m thankful for the natural life cycle of items, objects and even living beings inclusive of animals of all kinds.

During the absence of a own fully operational notebook, there are times whereby I wanted to continue to write out my thoughts via blogging, but is limited to my situation which I’m in with depleting resources inclusive of money, time and health.

Without money, time and health will not be possible. Without money, my path towards entrepreneurship will cease to exist and so I will remain just like another average joe on the streets.

Having ample time off from the notebook (electronic gadgets) has given me another answer which I would otherwise never will come to realize without the aging notebook due to the shelf life of items.

As I read books, thoughts started flying through my mind, at times floating  and even crawling pass my mind. While the ideas and thoughts are constantly changing, the one thing in particular which I was constantly thinking was how to get rich, and being both rich and right at the same time without compromising on my principles needed for my own personal branding..

As days passed..weeks…months..even while I’m working, being employed (though I once said the last time I wanted was to be employed) but I still got to face reality.

The harsh cruel truth of society, money is essential for almost everything. Without it, nothing is possible, but on the hind sight, money still has its limitations.

Searching for answers and the path (formula) required for success, with the advice and comments from my current boss, I learn quite a few helpful tips essential for success and getting rich.

Face the music is what I could sum it up of.

Face the truth, reality, and never ever live in my own desired world or some say fantasy. The right answer is that there is no model answer.

Here’s a food for thought for readers: How to get rich?

You might think there are numerous ways and different scales to doing it. That’s right, there’s no one definite answer to a question or problem.

What works for you might not necessary work for me so the key to success is to ask yourself what kind of parameters and environment do you want to be in and be ready to compromise on certain things which you might not like.

Flexibility is what makes all millionaires and billionaires rich. With the same goal and destination, you just need to search for a terrain suitable for you depending on your working style, preference and personality, work with supportive people and be in a team.

No matter how rich and successful a individual is, the wealth he/she now holds are a collective effort of all the other individuals who are helping those in the limelight contented with what they have

Ask yourself and find the different answers. The truth of the adulthood is that there is no such thing as good or bad, whatever brings in results is considered good. (A far cry from what’s taught in schools, but that’s a cruel fact of life)

Start asking yourself questions and try out different answers. Even if it’s wrong, it is also an answer which you have tried, you just need to identify those suitable answers and assemble them accordingly to make it function and together with a framework, it will than become a formula of your own.

Fun is the process of enjoying something, amusement parks, enjoying the thrill, excitement, suspense and even horror all for the pleasure of fun.

Fun is the term used for kids and teenagers whereas it can be fulfilled easily without much expenditure of money whereas fun in adult perspective is recreations.

Recreation is a refreshment of one’s body and mind meant to be engaging a person in something which is to get involved in physically

While many people wants to have fun, it is best to identify and know exactly if you want to have fun or to enjoy recreation activities.

In my own terms, fun is simply to enjoy whatever you are doing be it physically or mentally engaging activities, as long as you feel happy and like the process of doing it, that is classified as fun.

As for recreation activities, it is a test of mind, body and soul whereby it engages the participant to think and relax in the process. It is used for reducing of stress and more of getting to know what you like and knowing more about yourself with the different kind of activities you get involved in personally.

Depending on the activities, it will tell you your real interest, and getting to know more about yourself if you are lost for directions on your life or purpose etc.

Now matter what you do, you must have fun, but just sufficient fun and do not overdo it.

Sufficient fun in the form of reward and not to play which is already considered overdoing it.

Learning, earning money or doing a hobby/interest can be fun. If you know how to identify the fun element, than ask yourself what can you do to profit from the fun.

Making money is fun especially in business, because when more money is made, happiness is shared and more recreation will be opened up to us with more financial abilities.

Learn to enjoy and have fun and make a lot more money in the process and make everyone happy.

Battle is the contest of strength and merits of individuals in a hostile engagement in any environment.

It is not simply a fight, instead it consist of many other factors and hopes pin onto that single or group battle of participants where dreams, hopes, dignity, reputation and pride are on the line.

Emerging victorious from a battle with valour is the pride of the winner representing not only himself, and also the coach, people who believe in the contestant/fighter, the same race and even the country he is representing.

When a contestant is selected, he no longer represents himself but represents all the people and is wearing the national flat in a battle. Living the dream and living up to the nation’s reputation, pushing themselves forward at times even if they themselves want to surrender at times.

That is when moral support, motivation, cheers works on the contestant who represents their dreams to push on and fight harder than before the results are announced.

In the technology era, there is no longer the physical battle. Instead it has all switched to the use of media, wanting to emerge as the winner in respective fields to be acknowledge as the global champion without engaging in fights which is also known as politics.

There are two concurrent wars happening in every single country on earth, the war of politics and government fighting on two fronts but using the same soldiers.

The top cabinet ministers are the politicians wanting to establish themselves as the good person helping other nations in need thus they go for bilateral ties and treaties with respective nations with mutual beneficial terms.

On the other hand, the same cabinet ministers are fighting their own battle with the civilians who are their boss and may pass the rights to run the country to another political group if they fail to satisfy their needs which are employment and ensuring everyone gets paid.

This is what I myself view as a losing battle, one person cannot fight on two fronts, moreover they don’t even understand what the external nations wants with their own country and there they are trying to win on both sides and are sinking on both ships with each leg stuck in a ship each, sinking along with them.

What kind of battle are you up against with? Who are your competitors? Are you representing yourself or your parents or even your own organization? What is it that you seek? Before you even have the desire for battle, what is the purpose?

Battle is the same in business, fighting everyday for profits, sales, clients, and with the objective in mind to win and emerge victorious thus growing rich, affluent into big companies and businesses.

Are you rich or in the process of making it? How do you plan to strategically move yourself up there and where are your alliances? Identify all these to increase your odds of success.

If you don’t plan, you plan to fail.

Failure is not a option but a chance to do self-reflection.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Obstacles are things which obstruct the path and hinder a process. It stands in the way of the flow attempting to delay or block something from being done.

Depending on the position and size of the obstacle, it will carry different impact. An obstacle in the air path will result in a lack of air thus causing death, similar a blood clot is equally lethal. If it is just a wall of maze to position a person or animal in, it is non-lethal and will properly just result in time wastage with no significant impact or life threatening situation.

As I was trying to do product creation during these few weeks upon long dragging, when I have started writing it, obstacles just keeps on coming, excuses find their way up to me, I find myself just not in a conducive environment which gives me so many disruptions.

Enough of the grumbling, at the end of the day, I know all these written are just excuses which I created and tell myself to give myself more reasons not to do product creation making myself only poorer than I already am, plus dragging me away further from my goals.

I am not sure how long I will overcome all this nonsense in my mind despite going through so many excellent training, coaching and mentors, but I will find my way.

After all, I want to move out of my current environment, and free myself from all liabilities either forced onto all males or those liabilities which I created myself. I will write them out..and sell the products for money to solve all my problems..

Product creation is the one and only way I have to work on. As I was writing, I realized something; obstacles are also part of the learning curve for success, without these difficulties, winning will not be a sweet victory worth celebrating.

People who succeed always celebrate, and the day will come when I pen down my books and sell them to my network of friends who needs the books which I am about to write to increase their sales, profit and business makeover.

The books will be a winner but ..Sigh..no buts..I’ll just have to slog things out, straighten my thoughts and kill all negative thoughts hindering me than doing me good at this point.

If you don’t want to be poor, seek your own course or path towards success, need a plan, feel free to ask me for free advice. If I can help in any way, do let me know.

As long as there’s a will, there’s a way.

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.

Line is an indication of demarcation, boundary, limit; often said to the fine line between right and wrong. In business and in law under the justification system, a clear line is drawn and spelled out clearly between the legal and illegal business or law practice.

Smarter individuals and businesses will than engage professional help such as lawyers and accountants to get into the hidden line of spectrum, the grey boundary which is similar to science, the colour spectrum of light and how it compromise of many various different light rays.

It is clear that in business and under law, it is easily to spell out what is right and wrong thanks to the terms and conditions with agreements to follow whatever considerations that has being discussed and agreed before any contract has being signed. But it is not always the same as for relationships especially when it comes to emotional relationships which has no right or wrong, neither is there any laws in any country to date that governs this emotional relationship in particular.

What every country can only do is to spell out laws which concerns business, money when relationships failed over partnership or when things get messy and out of hand.

Ladies often said men are playboys, which I as a guy can only agree but only partially agreement. But with time and exposure to books, television shows, and the ability to understand and comprehend in depth conflicts of relationships and emotions plus the link between these two, there is only one conclusion at the end of the topic. And that is; people often draw lines and follow the lines, rules set by it within the boundaries, people who cross the line and mostly it is the guys who does that, thus giving the blanket impression that ‘all guys are natural playboys’ in some ladies regardless of age.

Guys in the past change girlfriends like nothing, giving ladies the impression of being a playboy, but after years of thinking, and understanding from different perspective, guys change girlfriends only when their other half step beyond the line and try to have more control over something which results in arguments and unhappiness leading to break-ups which also happens in ladies breaking up with guys too for similar reasons.

Now-a-days, the line is further being blurred and more towards the grey area with the media coverage of skimpy, revealing clothes and designs which give the young minds a wrong education over the television, fashion fads and trends and even within individuals be it at work, play or home.

The boundary is no longer clear, emotion, love and sex are mixed up in the young minds which leads to more problems than what ordinary people can handle which is why nationals and politicians are having headaches over marriage issues, abortion, pregnancy issues in many countries across the globe.

To solve the global problem, there is a simple solution to the problem. List out and define your own line, limitations, principles and follow whatever rules, terms and conditions which you have set to eliminate all these potential problems which will surface without clear rules implement order in place to keep it well oiled like a smooth running machine that never breaks down or jams up.

Always draw and distinguish a clear line to eradicate all potential problems even before they have any slightest chance of growth in our mind or heart whichever way you like it.

Line is what sets the huge gap between poverty or wealthy, rich or poor.

If you want to say good-bye to poverty, welcome wealth and riches, than start defining your own line(s).

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.

Imagination is the ability of forming mental images, sensations and concepts in a moment when they are not perceived through sight, hearing or other senses.

It is the products of imagining, a conception, and mental creation, often a baseless or fanciful one. It can work together with ideas and the key to imagination is to think without any restrictions or barrier such as worries about the ability to carry out the plan via financial means and network or influence etc.

It is to think and reach for the impossible that challenge the mind to eventually come up with something with time that is more practical via team discussion and brain-storming meetings.

It is psychology, the power of reproducing images stored in the mind under suggestion of associated images or recombining former experience in a new creation of new image directed at a specific goal of solving a problem with a solution.

Start dreaming, and talk about it, who knows one day you might have come up with your own vision which can help you become the next bill gates, imagination is the start and catalyst of a vision that can help you make a fortune from it.
