Hi Friends
In about a few days time, year 2011 will be over and we will be welcoming year 2012. Have you ever looked back in time and ask yourself what have you achieved so far? You might be thinking that time really flies and while you are so busy with your daily life that you almost forgot what you have done. Or you might just be thinking about what have you achieved for the past one year? Have you been achieving what you want out of your life or have you been procrastinating and postponing most of your plans? Well, whatever that have happened or not happened, they are already...

Hi Friends
It’s 2:30am right now and I just managed to settle down after our Graduates’ Gathering for my company’s Value Investing Gathering and I saw this article titled ‘S’pore girl dies after long battle with cancer’. I have read the story at Wan Bao a few days ago but reading it again reminded me of how fragile and how important life can be.
As I am typing this, there will be hundreds and probably thousands in the world that are fighting cancer.... Read more »
Dear Friends
I was sitting calmly in a small waiting area in National Cancer Centre for my CT Scan in a blue robe given by the centre. There was an elderly man around 55+ and an elderly woman about the same age waiting there too. The woman started to talk and asked the man what cancer he had. The man replied that he has bladder cancer and how the cancer has affected his life. Suddenly, he stood up and lifted his robe to reveal what’s inside. Both of us were shocked. He showed us his external “bladder”, a plastic looking bag where his urine was stored. He then... Read more »

One of the coordinator of Children Cancer Foundation (CCF) passed me a Photo Frame after I have organised a small event for their beneficiaries last Saturday (25th Jun 11), a group of fun-living children who have survived cancer. And on the picture within the photo frame was 2 people lying on a beautiful green patch of grass with a short paragrah and it read:
“THIS PHOTO represents the love I feel from all those around me. When looking at this photo, I feel the deep love between the 2 people in it. Similarly, when I see my friends and family, I can sense how much... Read more »

Whenever I conduct NLP Training, there will always be a small group of who will asked me about how I felt and how I managed when I was diagnosed with cancer previously. Well, it wasn’t easy. Not only for me but my love ones too. In my opinion, is there anything more frightening than death? Yes, it’s not watching your love ones die, but watching your love ones live ……. but they don’t remember you. As I am typing this, there will be some people out there, somewhere out there, despite having financial, physical and mental challenges, you... Read more »
Hi Friends
10 years ago, if you were to tell your friends that one day, anyone can goes to outer space, they will tell you that you are crazy. Well, they are absolutely right. Only Astronuats can go to space. Then came along a crazy fellow by the name of Sir Richard Branson, who broke all limiting beliefs that it can’t be done. He did what the world thought it was impossible. He founded Virgin Galactic (http://www.virgingalactic.com) and send any human to outer space ……… of course if you can afford US$200,000.... Read more »
Hi Friends
A few days ago, on my way to my office, I walked past a young lady in a wheel chair. She is probably in her mid-20s and she was selling tissue papers. It’s quite common that you will encounter old woman/man selling tissue papers in hawker centres, interchanges, etc. I took a quick glance at her and we made a brief eye contact. She wore glasses, a simple pastel-coloured dress and looked extremely skinny for her age. I continued walking thinking ……. After about 30m past this lady, for some unknown reason, I just felt that I should do something for her. I walked... Read more »
Hi Friends
During my NLP Training last Sunday, one of my trainee told me a story and the story goes like this – there was this man who wanted to climb up a flight of stairs with 100 steps with a door up at the top. He carries with him the key to open the door, and a few important baggage with him. As he started his journey up the stairs, he gets more and more tired. After 20 steps up, he decided to drop a baggage as it was too heavy though it was important. He continued his journey up. After a flight of 40 steps, he dropped his next baggage as it was too heavy though it was important.... Read more »
Hi Friends
A Blogger who previously attended my NLP Workshop wanted to share some parts of my life with her readers. The following are some of her answers and my reply.
Happy Reading and hope that it inspires you.
1) Why did you choose this profession and what do you love most about what you do?
I have always loved teaching as a teenager because I simply could not stop talking once I started (just kidding about the part where I could not stop talking). It all started when I need to make some pocket money during my high school days and I started with... Read more »
Hi Friends
Happy NEW Year to all of you and welcome to a Great Monday where all of you move towards your Dreams and Goals again.
Just to share after training more than 15,000 people and conducting hundreds of personal development workshops, a common observation among participants is that most of them are focus on their carreer and wanting to increase their income. However, most wanted to get-rich-quick and not driven to put in EXTRA HARDWORK in addition to the amount of time that they are spending. Even though there are some shortcuts to success such as having a mentor, attending... Read more »
