*Blows away dust*

I have done it, shut down the blogs and combined the entries into this. There's not much of a difference though between the postings.

Well, I hope to work on the format next and revive this page.

I realized that much of my life have been squandered away, the fault is my own. And now it is time to rise again.

I'm exploring many other methods to reach my dream life, I hope the Universe hears me and sends me a sign soon!

Much love,

Passion Builds Business

Do you believe me when I say that passion brings you income?



I didn't believe it myself but then I realized something. Passion alone is not enough.

You see, passion is only part of the equation. Passion brings about enthusiasm. With enthusiasm, you exude a positive vibe, thus making you feel like anything in this world is possible.



Passion brings about optimism and eliminates this internal fear that is in you. You become too excited to sleep, just by keeping a little bit enthusiasm and optimism in you.

However like everything else, too much of a good thing is actually bad. In fact, you may have passion for something but if you don't have that fighting spirit, that enthusiasm and that optimism in you, well, passion really gets you nowhere.

For example, if you are passionate about teaching, but don't want to deal with weak students, then it becomes just another job if you have to deal with them.

You see, there are many things that is required to build a successful business. Every little thing matters, from your internal to external self.

Interesting isn't it?

Imaginary Fear

Fear is in your mind. That statement makes fear a graphic imagination.

We all have fear but it's the matter of how we manage it. We either push it aside and don't let it get to us and continue with our battle or we let it consume us.

That's the choice we have to make everyday; small choices from choosing our food to big choices like choosing our path in life.

Fear is really in our imagination.

If money is not the question, what would you do?

But.. I think the more correct question to spur you to get things done is, "If fear is not stopping you, what will you do?"

Mid-Year Post

6 months have passed since the last post. Much have happened and it taught me many things about myself. The thing about learning is, you will only learn when you put the effort to learn about things.

My first 6 months, I have gone through happy, depressed, sad and self-discovery moment.

Part of self-discovery is to realize that I am solely responsible for my own success - a sentence that many can re-iterate but not many really understand.

That's the funny thing about learning. Different people do it differently. Some learnt quickly, whereas some requires a hard konk on the head before he or she realizes what is happening and takes action.

We all wish for quick realization - some of us get stuck in a loop while trying to realize things.

With realization, comes understanding and when that comes, it's much easier and clearer for you to see the things that is ahead.

You have to believe, that you will make it. You have to believe that you will live the successful life that you always want. So long as you do everything right.

Accepting things as it is - and getting on with your life

There are certain things in life that you cannot control.

There are however that you can control, but people may not agree to it - so in defense, you might retaliate to stand your ground but sometimes, it's best to just go with the flow.

A person will not understand it if he or she is not in that hot seat or have not experienced that situation him/herself. Therefore, trying to make them understand your point of view, is futile.

The best way is to accept that they are like that, happy with their view, happy with imposing their view on you, and then, get on with your life. At the end of the day, there is really no need to stress over it.

They will never see your perspective and there is no way for them to change their point of view. Let them be. Ignore what they say. Ignore their opinion.

This is the only way to avoid a stress-free life :)

A Greater Understanding of Things Around You

Sometimes in life, we will be able to see the same pattern recurring. Life is such that, once you learn, it will stop repeating and it will give you even bigger challenges.

That is called growth. To experience growth, you have to have a certain level of understanding, and also a certain level of acceptance of that particular event.

This is one of the things that I learnt, through my mentor, through the book I recommended and also through my own soul searching.

Acceptance is very important, because it's not an easy thing to do.

People change to be a more excellent or a worse version of themselves through time. Not many will be able to realize this, but lucky for those who do.

The challenge for those who do is, to be patient when going through this process.

They say, Life is the Exam. You progress higher each time as your understanding deepens, just like how people started out in Nursery and end up writing a thesis.

When you're faced with a challenge, it's really important to accept it as a challenge, and that you will overcome it. It will be painful, but it's rewards are really awesome.

All of us have tough times, but how many of us will come out of it stronger?

Some thing to ponder about :)

Have fun pondering. I wish you all the awesomeness one can experience!

Surprising Lessons From 100 Days of Rejection: Jia Jiang at TEDxAustin

There is nothing worse than rejection.

There is no worse feeling than to have someone tell you no, or turn you down.



But this ... never fails to turn me around.



I hope it will do the same for you.
