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...

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 »

Secrets? Really? Is this article going to be another one of those that I have read somewhere?
Well, it’s a personal story of myself and it’s my Beliefs of Success. Who am I? In a nutshell:
My story started where I was brought up in a extremely humble family where my father was a fishmonger and my mum, a hardworking homemaker. Throughout my education, I survived on bursaries and getting a new pair of school shoes was a luxury. I was a obedient child at first but during my teenage years, I became a video game addict and fell into bad company. I did... 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 »

Now you understand what NLP is all about and a brief history of NLP. Ther next question is how do you use it to produce results for yourself?
One of the essence of NLP is NLP Modelling. In simple terms, NLP allows any individual to understand a the pattern of thoughts of any outstanding individuals (eg, Top sales people, top public speakers, top corporate executives, etc.) and run this set of programmes consciously in our mind to an extent that it becomes part of us (unconscious). When we need a certain behaviour such as confidence, bravery, motivation, etc., we just... Read more »

Many thought that NLP was a new tool. In fact, it started way back in 1970s and has evolved and time tested across across 40 years. Some pointers about the history of NLP are as follows:
• NLP began in early 1970s, when Richard Bandler (a psychology student I University of California Santa Cruz) was transcribing a taped therapy session by Gestalt Therapist Fritz Perls
• Bandler found certain patterns of Perls language which increase its acceptance by clients
• Bandler brought his findings to John Grinder (a linguist) and they produced “Meta Model”Read more »

NLP stands for
Neuro-Linguistic Programming, in which I would call it a psychology of excellence and a technology of achievement. It was founded by both Richard Bandler and linguist, DrJohn Grinder, in the early 1970s. It is a powerful tool that encompasses the 3 most influential components involved in producing human experience: neurology (ie. Neuro) , language (ie. Linguistic) and programming. The
neurological system regulates how our bodies function, our mind and how we think and behave which stems from our 5 senses.
Language...

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 »

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 »

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 »
