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. Watch his video below:

Then he recently unveiled his new venture  into the deepest part of the ocean – Virgin Oceanic (http://www.virginoceanic.com/). He is really the only one man, one man that I know who take MASSIVE ACTION to BREAK all limits and limiting beliefs of the human kind. Watch his video about Virgin Oceanic below:

I simply love this crazy guy!

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 the only skill I had – to give tuition. I continued with this part-time through Junior College, army days and my undergraduate days in National University of Singapore (NUS).

It wasn’t pure passion at first. I just needed money to survive especially during my undergraduate days because I had absolutely no money to pay for my food, not to mention my tuition fees. What I did was that I took a loan from DBS and POSB to take care of my 4 years of studies, then studied full-time and worked part-time to take care of my food, books, bus fare, etc. Life went downhill when my father passed away during my 3^rd year. Subsequently, my mother was diagnosed with terminal stage lung cancer when I was in my honours year (ie. 4^th year). The series of episodes taught me the importance of life and money. It prompted me to ask myself this question – is it possible to live our dreams doing what we absolutely love and don’t have to worry about money at the same time? The answer came when I came across NLP (Neuro-linguistic Programming) accidentally during my undergraduate days.

Yeap, the dots connected later on – to train (since I love teaching), flexibility of time (to spend time with family and do charity work) & unlimited income (I have been working previously as an employee for 10 years). I took the leap of faith, quit my last job as an Assistant Vice President of a listed company, and started my company Mind Kinesis Management International LLP (http://www.mindkinesis.com & https://nlp1.myguaranteedseo.com) and recently started Mind Kinesis Value Investing Academy at (http://www.investment-in-stocks.com). The 2 main focus of my company now is to train NLP Tools and Value Investing Methodologies so that people can live the life that they have always wanted.

What do I love most about my profession? I HAVE 100% CONTROL OVER MY LIFE. We spend more than 1/3 of our life working for someone, with the remaining 1/3 sleeping and the last 1/3 doing what is supposedly important. Since we need to work anyway, why don’t we use this 1/3 of our life to fulfill our dreams instead of other people’s dreams?

2) What is your mission in Life?

I like this question – it’s  “To Motivate and Empower People to Reach their Destiny”. I have this personal mission printed on my name cards and my company’s website.

3) You’ve built up your business and co-authored a book. What’s next?

Paiseh! I felt that I have not built up my business yet. Long way to go. In terms of long-term focus, the business will expand from NLP and Value Investing to US Property Investing (in which I already own properties), Entrepreneurship and Publishing. In terms of publishing, more books will be coming for sure including personal development kits. My company has already published what I called a ‘Success Journal’, the only journal with a system incorporating NLP tools to systematize how one should manage their time to reach their goals. That’s good enough for me. Don’t have to be super-rich like Bill Gates to make me happy. Most IMPORTANT thing is to spend more time with family. That’s more important to me than making too much money.

4) What are some of Life’s lessons that you would want to share with your daughter as she is growing up?

Just ONE KEY LESSON, an extract of Steve Job’s 2005 Commencement Speech in Stanford University – “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice, heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

Well, I have just survived Renal Cancer this year.  (Read my story in Straits Times at https://nlp1.myguaranteedseo.com/inspiration-story/a-story-about-death-to-share-a-story-about-life). Never assume that we are going to live until 70, 80, etc. We only have ONE lifetime on this planet, do what is truly IMPORTANT to us and live the life that we have always wanted, not what other people expect of us.

5) What is one memorable experience you’ve had with helping a client find his/her purpose and mission in Life?

There were many. One of them is that one lady participant quit her job as an engineer and brought forward her 10-year-later dream of working with children in a learning centre. Now, she works in a Learning Centre teaching children as well as working as a Real Estate Agent. The key thing is that she is absolutely happy with what she is doing now. For every batch of my NLP Class, there will be at least one participant who will quit to do something else that will make them happier. If you have a dream to fulfil, why wait until tomorrow? “Screw It, Let’s Do It” ~ Sir Richard Branson.

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 courses, modelling other successful people, etc., all these shortcuts still require addition effort on one’s part. That’s when having a CLEAR GOAL and keeping yourself in a MOTIVATED and PEAK STATE is important to keep you moving forward.

Do read today’s Straits Times (under Life’s Section) on Foodcourt King, Mr Pang Lim, how he started his business from being a dishwasher. In addition, pls also read about how a dynamic friend of mine, Ms Rachel Wong, who grew from a teen hairdresser to the BOSS of an engineering firm at http://tinyurl.com/6293×93. Rachel’s full story is also featured in my book ‘Do you have what it takes to be BOSS?’ (see Book Cover Below).

There was a quote that I have read somewhere which goes like this: ‘There is NO elevator to SUCESS, you will have to take the STAIRS’.

Dear Friends

I have lost count of the number of workshops that I have conducted and the number of people that I have trained – simply too many. My schedule is already booked all the way until June 2011 and the planning of my goal is up to Dec 2011.

I can still remembered when I first quitted from my last job to start my company, all my colleagues were wondering why am I so silly to quit from a designation of Assistant Vice President, drawing a fantastic salary, to start a business from  ground zero? This is because ……..

Have you ever had a dream? A dream to live life the way you wanted. A dream to do something that you love such that you don’t have to work a single day again. A dream where you are finacially free such that money comes straight into your pocket without working for it. I am sure you have at least one of these dreams.I did come across this quote ‘Many have dreams. But few lived their dreams’.  But why not many lived their dreams? There are many reasons.

One of them I consistently asked trainees is ‘On a scale of 1 – 10, what is the score that you believed in your dreams? 1 is where you absolutely don’t believe and 10 is a absolutely believe’. What will be your score? Before you tell me what is your score, ask yourself this question – will you do something that you BELIEVE or something that you DON’T BELIEVE?’. The answer is obvious. Something that we believed in. So do you know why many people don’t lived their dreams? They know what they are, they can put them into words, but many simply don’t believed that it can happen. If they don’t believed, they simply won’t do anything about it. If they don’t do anything about it, they are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT – it didn’t happen. It became a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Let me share with you what I believed, and because of that, I took MASSIVE ACTION to make my little dreams come true. Some of them include:

1) Writing & publishing my 1st book – the best part is that I donate all sales proceeds to Straits Times Pocket Fund

2) Starting my ‘Mind Kinesis Value Investing Academy’ at http:www.investment-in-stocks.com in addition my NLP Academy.

3) Started buying landed properties in United States as an additional source of passive income in addition to my stock investment. This is a unit in Rochester, Monroe, New York 14605.

…. and many more.

Is it all about money and career? Of course NOT. It’s about living the life to the fullest. After my ordeal with Renal Cancer, all the above is just to show that when one STRONGLY BELIEVES in something, one will MAKE IT HAPPEN.

So do you believe in your dreams and most imporantly, yourself?

Hi Friends

I had a wonderful and busy last week in which I spent most of time doing what I love to do – TRAINING.

Just to share that last Saturday and Sunday, I was conducting the one and probably the only Mandarin NLP Training in Singapore and one of the trainee in whom I addressed as Uncle Wang was the oldest trainee that I have ever trained. He was 73 years old. The positive takeaway for me was that this uncle participated 100% in the training whether it’s just lectures or experiential activities. Despite his age, he reminded me that if we aged, we should continuously learn and really live life to the fullest. When we were sharing what were our dreams, he shared something that we probably take things for granted – he just wanted to see properly again with his hands and legs able to sustain him for the rest of his years. As you are reading this, I am sure that your pair of eyes, hands and legs are functioning properly. Well, not for Uncle Wang. 

During my training, I shared the story of how I was diagnosed with renal cancer and how I was fortunate enough to survive the disease. You know what? During the tea-break of our training, he went over to Popular Bookstore and bought me a Chinese book about Free Radicals (See photo below with the copy of book that he gave me). It’s hard to described how happy I felt when Uncle Wang did that. Previously, when I was conducting my ‘maiden’ training right after my surgery, it was so painful at my wound that I have to speak with my left hand pressing against the surgery wound. One trainee by the name of Janet Chew, took off during tea-break and came back with a surgical belt that I can wear to reduce the pain. When she handled it to me, she said ‘This is to bless you!’. I am blessed!

The journey of starting and sustaining a training business wasn’t easy, but I am glad that we are constantly growing with wonderful people supporting me, especially my family. Spare some time, sit down quietly, and ask yourself this question: “Who are the 3 people that you are most grateful to in your life?”. Well ………..

Have a great week!
