Millionaire Mind Intensive!!

Oh gosh! Just logged on then realised, i haven't been blogging for almost a quarter! 3 months, an incredibly long period of time. Oh man..

So many updates, but guess i'm gonna skip those mundane stuffs away. Not gonna mention how Term 4 was great, Promo & Prelim marking was intensive, and how I'm proud of my kids' performance in Promo. Not gonna mention them, all too mundane. hehe..

Okay, serious stuff.


Hv u ever heard of T. Harv Eker, the great inspirational speaker and author, the amazing businessman, the multi multi multi millionaire? Just took my last weekend off and attended his Millionaire Mind Intensive seminar. 3 full days. (go google him if u haven't heard of his name. GO! GO! NOW!!)

Oh my, he's a hell lot of inspiring and motivating i must say, a total mind blowing seession that changed my mindset completely. Goddamn, didn't know my mind is so full of "dirty thoughts" that's sabotaging my success in life so much. Glad to hv undergone a whole series of "brainwashing" session, it's much cleaner now. The feeling is like a body that hasn't been cleaned for 26 yrs, now got soapped and shampooed and scrubbed really hard, and suddenly all the dirt and mud are gone! Amazingly holy! :D (And who says branwashing is bad? Don't u ever wash ur clothes, body, or brush ur teeth? haha~)

These 3 days, i've learnt SOO SOO MUCH from T. Harv Eker and his trainers i must say. Too many to even LIST out all. And one of the MOST VITAL skills i've learnt there (and hv benefitted me a hell lot), is PEDAGOGY. Harv's amazing presentation skills, coupled with audience interaction, is a PERFECT MODELING TARGET for me, as a teacher, a public speaker, a trainer, a leader. To put it simply, if u could even catch a glimpse of how he teaches (and i'm not even talking abt "training"), ur pedagogy skills would jump to a total whole new level, be it in lecture or tutorial.

Hereby i shall briefly share 1 concept of Money Management with u, to serve as a constant reminder to myself too.

Now, split ur income into 6 different jars:
10% Financial Freedom Account
10% Longterm Saving / Spending
10% Education
55% Necessity
10% Play
5% Give

The magic behind the numbers and the names of the jar, i juz taught my new faithful reader ying over msn. Too lengthy and complex to share here. Consult me if u're always having trouble managing ur monthly income, finding urself always left with less than a penny at the end of month, yet dunno where has ur money gone to. Consult me if u're interested in start getting ur financial life into proper order, so u'll ALWAYS have sufficient savings left for ur dream car, dream bungalow, after spending relentlessly on ur daily necessities, and enjoying urself thoroughly along the way. Most imptly, find urself financially free at the end of working hard for 10 years, or even 5 years!

In case u're not aware, working hard for life does not make you financially free. Excellent money management skills does. Look at those people around u who're slogging their lives out making more than 10k/mth and are still poor at the end of the day, u'll understand that.

Working is good, esp. if u're in ur dream job which u've always been aspiring to be in, like me & the ppl ard me. But working for the sake of money is a freaking bad idea. It not only is impractical, and also kills ur passion for the job 10x faster than anything does. We should be doing smth bcos we LOVE TO, not bcos we HAVE TO. If u're in a job which u're constantly thinking, "hell damn, i'm gonna sack my boss when i can!", u're not happy. And as a matter of fact, u'll nv be. If u're working bcos u've to "make a living", then the truth is, u're not. U're "making a killing", killing ur true passion for life by stucking urself in a job u dun hv passion for. That's no way to live.

Do the things u LOVE to do. Pursue ur interests, ur true PASSION. Life is short, spend ur time doing things with the people u really love. Whoever that say passion & bread cannot co-exist must be shutting himself out while living a hard life. OF COURSE THEY CAN! ... ... at least for me ;)
