WHAT DO WANT IN YOUR LIFE? Check out the CLUES OF PURPOSE & PASSION that LEAD YOU to YOUR RIGHT DIRECTION!

This is a continuation of my previous post here.

I attended Merry Riana's 1-day 'I am Woman' workshop, so the previous post was more about women and for women.

But I feel that there are some very important and useful knowledge that I learnt and want to share with everyone!

Below are the knowledge that I learnt and want to share them with more people and help more people discover about themselves.

WHAT DO WANT IN YOUR LIFE? 

Is this what you are saying to yourself, "I don't know what I want in my life. Life is so meaningless."

These are the CLUES OF PURPOSE AND PASSION!

- Your Secret Fantasy of your Wish and Desires in your Life

- Jealous & Envy (it may not be a bad thing. Whatever that you may envy, it makes you feel that it is something that you want.)

- Bodily Symptoms (for example, when you which a cooking show, you just get so fired up and excited. Your body may unconsciously be telling you that it may be something that you want.)

- Crisis

- Recurring Dreams, Vision

- Talents & Strengths

- Play of a Child (What did you like to play or do when you were a child? Do you like to sing?)

There you have it, these are the CLUES that help you DISCOVER PURPOSE AND PASSION.

KNOWING YOUR PASSION & PURPOSE gives you the DIRECTION. Your Passion and Purpose tells you where your DESTINATION is, thus you know whether you are heading in the RIGHT DIRECTION.

Moving in the Right Direction, makes you feel that you are living in a Meaningful life, knowing that you are on your way to your Destination.

Merry Riana spoke of her 2 SECRET FORMULAS to SUCCESS:

#1 - Finding the RIGHT DIRECTION

#2 - Finding the RIGHT STRATEGIES

So what do you mean by RIGHT DIRECTION?

Merry Riana (MR): Why do go to work? Why do you want to look good? For what?

People always ask,"How can I be successful?"

But do you know what you want in the first place, what is your passion or purpose in life?

MR gave an analogy to represent Direction.

Imagine that you are in City Hall MRT, you ask the MRT staff,"which train should I take?" 

What do you think the staff will say?

"WHERE DO YOU WANT TO GO?"

Most people don't know their direction and don't know what they want. 

So what do most people do?

They tend to take the first train that arrives, that eventually leads them to nowhere! Because they don't even know where they want to go in the first place!

Merry Riana shared about her 1 Big Secret to her Success:

"Because I Dare to Dream BIG!"

You can download her Free Ebook, Dare To Dream BIG!, in her website http://www.merryriana.com/

Now, when you are doing what you are not passionate about, you will feel these Symptoms of Disconnectedness from your Inner Self.

So what are these symptoms that make you feel that you are in the wrong place and feeling that you are heading in the wrong direction? 

Here they are:

Symptoms of Disconnectedness from your Inner Self

- Not knowing what to do - Frozen or Stuck

- Emotional Pain/Turmoil - Depression

- Exhaustion

- Can't sleep at night

- Addictions

- Recurring Problems or Failures

When you feel disconnected, you need to STOP what you are doing so routinely, and start asking yourself questions to discover more about yourself and recap back through the Clues of Purpose and Passion.

CLUES OF PURPOSE AND PASSION

- Your Secret Fantasy of your Wish and Desires in your Life

- Jealous & Envy

- Bodily Symptoms

- Crisis

- Recurring Dreams, Vision

- Talents & Strengths

- Play of a Child

 LEARN TO LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE!

Currently, while you are living your Life, Are you feeling LOST, BURN-OUT or FRUSTRATED?

Or are you already Living The Life That You Want? The Extraordinary Life?

There are 4 different types of people.

	RIGHT DIRECTION	WRONG DIRECTION
RIGHT STRATEGY	EXTRAORDINARY	BURN-OUT
WRONG STRATEGY	FRUSTRATED	LOST

An example of being LOST - Earning poorly and also find no meaning, passion or purpose in your work.
An example of being BURN-OUT - Earning very well but find no meaning, passion or purpose in your work.
An example of being FRUSTRATED - Doing what you love or like, but not earning the wealth you desire.

An example of being EXTRAORDINARY - Doing what you love or like, and earning the wealth you desire.


A REAL STORY of BURN-OUT to EXTRAORDINARY
There was this person who took a Finance Degree and working in a bank, but finds life meaningless. But after watching a show on cooking, she felt those bodily symptoms of excitement. She finally realized that cooking was what she wanted to do. Eventually she went on to take a degree in cooking, and went from being a great cake baker and cake designer.
She was so good in her artistic cake work that she was invited to be on cooking shows. Although she is not earning the kind of money that she had previously, she now feels life is meaningful and that she is living the kind of life that she loves and enjoys doing.

Merry Riana: "I am where I am right now, is because I Dare To Dream BIG!"
"Dare To Dream BIG!"
"I live my everything." (Meaning that you don't need to think about choosing between Career or Family. You can have BOTH, when you do your good planning and organising of certain activities.)

I will be LIVING MY EVERYTHING! Will You?

'I AM WOMAN' Workshop by Merry Riana

Hi Everyone,

I attend Merry Riana 'I AM WOMAN' Workshop today at AKLTG Training Centre at Keppel Towers.

It started at 10am and ended at 5pm. It is a Women-only workshop where there were about more than a hundred people there.

Merry Riana is a Millionaire Entrepreneur, Best-Selling Author and Motivational Speaker.

It is a great workshop, that has thought me about Image Mastery and Personal Mastery.
In the first half of the talk, Merry spoke about the Image Destroyers for women, then we learnt about Power Dressing.

POWER DRESSING

Hair: Short or neatly tied up; well-styled

Face: Clean and well-maintained skin; appropriate make-up

Clothes: Suit (pant/skirt), jacket, dress

Accessories: Classic and elegant styles

Shoes: Court shoes or pumps; classic style

Grooming: Clean nails; fresh and pleasant smell

FACE ANALYSIS

There are 8 types of face shapes.

Oval-shape faces rule all, those are the most optimal faces that fits all kinds of hairstyles, whether is it straight or long or curly.

Whatever the shape, the basic rule is that you need to do up yourself to make sure that you have an Oval-shape face.

- Basically if you have an Inverted-Triangle Face, then it would be better for you to keep some Curly Hair about shoulder length, so that you cover up your pointed face, to make it look fuller.

After that we went into Colour Analysis of clothes, of what you should or should not wear at certain functions.

Sorry too much details, won't be typing it all out here.

Next we went into Body Analysis. Basically, the optimal body is an Hourglass shape body, meaning the width of your shoulder is the same as your hips.

So if your shoulder and hips are not of equal width, you will either wear clothes that make your shoulders broader, like wearing puffy clothes or shoulder pads, or if you want to make your hips broader, you can wear flair skirt. To make yourself look best, wear clothes to make your body look as hourglass as possible.

Then after that she asked us to discuss with at least 2 persons, "What makes you feel so proud to be a woman?"

Then you get all sorts of answers during the sharing.

Merry Riana then spoke of the 3 Challenges Women Face.

3 CHALLENGES WOMEN FACE

1) Success ("I'm not successful enough.")

2) Balance ("It's hard to have a complete/balance life.")

3) Time for Self ("I feel lost, it has been a long time since I have time for myself.")

Then we were asked to vote on the 1 of the challenges that you feel is biggest to you in your life.

Majority answered SUCCESS, was the biggest challenge to them.

She spoke of the 2 SECRET FORMULAS to SUCCESS:

#1 - Finding the RIGHT DIRECTION

#2 - Finding the RIGHT STRATEGIES

So what do you mean by RIGHT DIRECTION?

Merry Riana (MR): Why do go to work? Why do you want to look good? For what?

People always ask,"How can I be successful?"

But do you know what you want in the first place, what is your passion or purpose in life?

MR gave an analogy to represent direction.

Imagine that you are in City Hall MRT, you ask the MRT staff,"which train should I take?" 

What do you think the staff will say?

"WHERE DO YOU WANT TO GO?"

Most people don't know their direction and don't know what they want. 

So what do most people do?

They tend to take the first train that arrives, that eventually leads them to nowhere! Because they don't even know where they want to go in the first place!

Merry Riana shared about her 1 Big Secret to her Success:

"Because I Dare to Dream BIG!"

You can download her Free Ebook, Dare To Dream BIG!, in her website http://www.merryriana.com/

MR said that she made a resolution at 20 years old, "I will achieve my financial freedom by 30 years old."

Did she have any idea or strategy on how she was going to make it? NO!

But she was committed to make it happen for her.

Exercise: Can you tell me what things do you need to have to live and Extraordinary life?
Audience: Time, Money, Wealth, Peace, Career, Family, Passion in what you do, Guilt-free shopping, freedom, friendship, share & give back, Luck, satisfaction, sex.

Next Exercise: Is there any woman out there who you think are living an Extraordinary life?

Audience: Oprah Winfrey, Ho Ching, Claire Chiang, Elim Chew, Olivia Lum, Nanz Chong, Victoria Beckham

MR: "These are the people in your own opinion that you believe lived an extraordinary life."

"Mother Theresa is living an Extraordinary life, but have no money."

It is not what you have that make you happy. It is WHO YOU ARE that makes you Special!

Identify who you are,  who am I?

What am I passionate in?

What is it that you are wanting all your life?

Check out the CLUES of Purpose/Passion, to be continued here!

Robin Sharma Insightful Video

Hi Everyone,

I highly encourage all to check out the video below.
I wrote some insightful pointers below too. 

Insightful Pointers:

• Surround yourself with people whose life you want to be living.
• Ideation without Execution is nothing more than Delusion.
• Be one of the brave souls to go out there executing flawlessly around those ideas even if it is just taking your first step and running towards your fears.
• Be a Man or Woman of Action.
• One of the best things you can do is spend some time each day THINKING.
• If it was easy getting world class and extraordinary, then everyone would be doing it.
• Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon.com, said, "I knew that if I failed, I won't regret it. But I knew that 1 thing I might regret, is not trying."
• The failure in life is the failure to try.
• The greatest risk you will ever face in your life is a riskless living.
• Keep dreaming, keep growing, keep getting better, keep talking to people, and keep pushing the politic possibilities.

Inspiring Story on Attitude By Francie Baltazar-Schwartz

Hi Everyone,
I recently came across this great story By Francie Baltazar-Schwartz.
A friend sent this to me and feel free to forward it to your friends.
Your life may take a turn for the better.

ATTITUDE

Jerry was the kind of guy you love to hate. He was always in a good mood and always had something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply, "If I were any better, I would be twins!"

He was a unique manager because he had several waiters who had followed him around from restaurant to restaurant. The reason the waiters followed Jerry was because of his attitude. He was a natural motivator. If an employee was having a bad day, Jerry was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation.

Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up to Jerry and asked him, "I don't get it! You can't be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?"

Jerry replied, "Each morning I wake up and say to myself, 'Jerry, you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood.' I choose to be in a good mood. Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life."

"Yeah, right, it's not that easy," I protested.

"Yes, it is," Jerry said. "Life is all about choices. When you cut way all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood. The bottom line: It's your choice how you live life."

I reflected on what Jerry said. Soon thereafter, I left the restaurant industry to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it.

Several years later, I heard that Jerry did something you are never supposed to do in a restaurant business: he left the back door open one morning and was held up at gunpoint by three armed robbers. While trying to open the safe, his hand, shaking from nervousness, slipped off the combination. The robbers panicked and shot him. Luckily, Jerry was found relatively quickly and rushed to the local trauma center.

After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care, Jerry was released from the hospital with fragments of the bullets still in his body.

I saw Jerry about six months after the accident. When I asked him how he was, he replied, "If I were any better, I'd be twins. Wanna see my scars?"

I declined to see his wounds, but did ask him what had gone through his mind as the robbery took place. "The first thing that went through my mind was that I should have locked the back door," Jerry replied. "Then, as I lay on the floor, I remembered that I had two choices: I could choose to live, or I could choose to die. I chose to live."

"Weren't you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I asked.

Jerry continued, "The paramedics were great. They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the emergency room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, I read, 'He's a dead man.'

"I knew I needed to take action."

"What did you do?" I asked.

"Well, there was a big, burly nurse shouting questions at me," said Jerry. "She asked if I was allergic to anything. 'Yes,' I replied. The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breathe and yelled, 'Bullets!' Over their laughter, I told them. 'I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead."

Jerry lived thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude. I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully. Attitude, after all, is everything.

James Sun, host of Channel NewsAsia’s Sun Tzu: War On Business

James Sun whose business insights and strategies that made him a millionaire at 22.

James is the first Asian male to land a spot on Donald Trump’s hit reality show “The Apprentice.” The show aired for 14 weeks on prime-time television, and James made it all the way through 14 weeks as a finalist in the competition. James was the first Asian finalist in the history of the show.



From a 6-figure income Sales & Marketing Executive to an Entrepreneur.
James wanted to start his own Company and take the risk and initiative to solve a problem. "There is definitely a risk factor in starting your own Company and going out and leaving a comfortable salary. But you what, in life you only live once. And if you don't take risk, what's the fun in it?"

James on Apprentice: "The whole show is about leadership. It's about showing your business acumen in a leadership position and so if you look at the previous winners, they've all had winning records project managers."

Arnold Schwarzenegger: "It's about being Hungry. It's all about how willing are you going through your pain barrier. That's what it's all about."

James: "I'm the current CEO of Zoodango.com (currently known as Geopage.com) and that is a company I started from concept all the way to what it is today. So I'm the visionary, I'm the strategist and I actually align all the people to do the details so yes I can do both details and I can see the bigger picture." 

James speaking on Class 95: "Failure is part of life. It builds character. Don't dwell on failures! Get up right away!" 
"Just like dominoes, if they are far apart, and 1 tip it won't hit the other. But if they are close together, when 1 tip, there will be the domino effect and all will tip. So Practise the Thought of Daily Success. Think Positive and Optimistic Daily for 365days and you'll have a great year!"

How to Make Opportunities Almost Fall Into Your Lap By Chris Howard

How to Make Opportunities Almost Fall Into Your Lap

Have you ever had this happen to you? 

For a while you cruise along, and things in life are going ok, but nothing has really "cracked" for you. You haven't really hit it BIG. Why is that? Here's one of the main reasons—focus.

Focus is another key to success. Why? Because you will always get what you focus your attention on, whether it's "good," "bad," "right," "wrong," uplifting, or downgrading.

This is why it’s critical to train the mind’s eye on opportunities and successful outcomes, rather than difficulties and failure. Your mind only has so much space, so why waste it by imagining all the things you don’t want to have happen?

Let me ask you: how much of the time are you focusing on what you hope doesn’t happen? Have you noticed those negative visions often become self-fulfilling prophecies?

You’re just tripping over your own inner obstacles. Once you’re aware of how much time you spend going down mental roads that get you nowhere, re-direct your focus and move on. Be relentlessly persistent in your pursuit of your goals. Focus is like any other skill or athletic ability. It takes practice, practice, practice. But when you have taken charge of your focus, you have taken charge of your financial destiny.

The good news is that focus and follow-through come naturally from passion. So when you get in touch with what you are truly passionate about, you automatically and easily become highly focused.

The First Principle You Must Understand To Build Riches By Chris Howard

Hi Everyone,
I got it from the Chris Howard website, Wealth Propulsion - Propel Your Wealth To The Next Level http://www.wealthpropulsion.com.au/?af=CLS1098644

Enjoy!

---

The First Principle You Must Understand To Build Riches

The first step is to recognise the social hypnosis you’ve been living in. Before you can truly be wealthy and happy, you must first open your mind to the fact there is so much more richness and possibility available to you. I am not asking you to believe it yet. Just open the door to the possibility that there is something more.
You see, 98% of the people in the world aren’t really going for it in life, and they’re not living rich and fulfilling lives. Why? Because the negative reporting in the media—in their social circles, in newspapers and on TV—is influencing and controlling their psychology!

Most people who struggle in life have no clue what the real problem is and what’s holding them back.
Even fewer people realise the harmful effect paying attention to—and believing—this negative reporting is having on their mindset.
And so, without their even realising it, their minds are literally being controlled in order to limit their thinking about what is possible.
But merely becoming aware of this process changes things. You start to wake up to a brand new reality where all the resources you need to create every dream you’ve ever wanted appear before you.
So for now all I ask is that you open your mind. You don’t have to believe in what I am saying to you. In fact I encourage you to hold on your healthy scepticism. In a moment you are going to discover that what I am saying really is the truth. 

Why You Can Be Wealthy

It’s a funny thing: once you tap into your natural power, your life is infused in that moment with emotional texture that makes the moment richer. Living in this space gives you a meaning-filled, rich, and passionate life, enabling you to become the best.

It’s in this place where you have the opportunity to create enormous wealth, and your life is richer because there’s a greater meaning to the experience.
Here’s the good news: living in this space is something you can wake up to instantly. And as you live in that space, in that zone, you start to conquer your financial milestones with absolute ease. You hit one after another, after another, after another. Here is the best part: you feel and become rich today. And so, you automatically become consumed in an upward-spiralling process that keeps getting stronger and stronger. This is the single greatest secret of the super rich and super happy. And as greater meaning is added to each experience, your life is propelled forward, and you continue to prosper at greater heights. And unlike the great masses, you know anything is truly possible for you. You are de-hypnotized, and your eyes will be open to all the opportunity and riches waiting for you.

Meanwhile,  in completing my new book Attract Money Now I’ve  included numerous ways to attract money using the law of attraction and the law of right action. Since so many people need help right now, I’m sharing some of the ways right here. Please share this with whoever may benefit from it.  Here goes:

1.  If you’re in the US, and in an emergency, call 211.

2.  Call the Silent Unity prayer line in the US:  1-740-362-4214.

3. Give money to wherever you received inspiration or encouragement.

4. Buy something you want and can afford.

5. Take action on an idea you have.

6. Write a script of you being wealthy and how it feels.

7. Watch the movie The Secret.

8. Watch the movie The Compass.

9. Watch the movie Try It On Everything.

10. Use EFT to help dissolve feelings of desperation.

11. Turn off the mainstream news.

12. Join or create a support group, such as Attract Miracles Online.

13. Forgive yourself and others.

14. Read Think and Grow Rich.

15. Turn a problem into a product and sell it online.

16. Feel grateful for something you have.

17. Practice the seven steps in Attract Money Now.

18. Listen to The Secret to Attracting Money.

19. Get a Miracles Coach.

20. Pray.

21. Create a vision board of what you want.

22. Do 5 things each day on items on your vision board.

23. Ask for help.

24. Help someone else.

25. Worship time, not money. Use your time wisely.

26. Imagine what you would do if you won the lotto for $37,000,000. Do it.

27. Do whatever you are afraid to do. Wealth is hiding behind your fear.

28. Get a job. While you pursue your dream, feed yourself with work.

29.  Get clear of limiting beliefs about money.

Obviously, each of the above needs a little explanation, which is why I’m writing my new book. My book will also reveal my new seven step formula for attracting money. If you would like to receive a free copy of it when it is done, just click here.

Successful People Stay Focused on Their Core Genius

Successful People Stay Focused on Their Core Genius

This is a summarised version of "Stay Focused on Your Core Genius by Jack Canfield"

I have noted down the information that we really need.

"inside of you a core genius... some one thing that you love to do, and do so well, that you hardly feel like doing anything else. It's effortless for you and a whole lot of fun. And if you could make money doing it, you'd make it your lifetime's work.

In most cases, your Core Genius is directly tied to your passions and life-purpose."

What is your Core Genius? See Jack Canfield example.

"For me, my core genius lies in the area of teaching, training, coaching and motivating. Another core genius is writing and compiling books. Over my 35 year career, I have written,
co-authored, compiled and edited more than 150 books, and I love to do it! I do it well, and people report that they get great value from it."
 

Find the time to focus on your core genius and to delegate most menial of tasks.

So now, firstly is to find what is your Core Genius.
Hmmm... what's my Core Genius?
What is it that you love to do and hardly feel like doing anything else?

For myself (pls note everyone is different), I enjoy completing tasks and knowing that after completing those tasks, I'm on my way to achieving something big or great. I need to constantly focus on that ultimate goal or achievement that I would want to achieve, and that is my motivation to completing those smaller tasks.
I'm not really into training or teaching because, I'm not a natural speaker and usually introvert.
I have the capability to complete task assigned to me on an individual basis at a pretty good pace, depending on the tasks. I enjoy completing tasks as it gives me a sense of achievement.

Although I pretty much enjoy content writing, I haven't found much opportunity that I can earn while writing contents. I can be a super hardworker, only when I can see that real destination and have that belief that the goal or reward is definitely there. 
Simply daydreaming and wishing with no results shown is not for me. 
I want to dream, as well as find out the logical steps to get me there. I'm a pretty down-to-earth person as well as a person who wants to achieve my big dreams.


If you have any ideas or comments or feedback for me on this Core Genius thingy, let me know yeah.
Cheers, Lina

Life Lessons - THE THIRTY SECOND QUIZ

Here is a little quiz with a big lesson to teach us :

THE THIRTY SECOND QUIZ
(Author Unknown)

Don't bother getting a pen and paper... just read... if you can't
answer them, just keep going.

1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.

2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.

3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America contest.

4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer prize.

5. Name the last five Academy Award winners for Best Actor and Actress.

How did you do?

The point is, none of us remembers the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They're the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.


Now here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:

1. Name three teachers who aided your journey through school.

2. Name three friends who helped you through a difficult time.

3. Name five people who have taught you something worth while.

4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.

5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.

Easier?

The lesson?

The people who make a difference in your life are rarely the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards.
They're the ones who care.

This is a great video! Amazing moments of Disney classics beautifully put together. It gives meaning to that certain scene in those movies:) Fantastic job!

I have often dreamed, The Hero's Welcome would be waiting for me.

The crowds will cheer, when they see my face,

And a voice keeps saying, "This where I'm meant to be."

I'll be there someday.

I know every mile will be worth my while.

And I won't look back, I can go the distance.

And I'll stay on track, no, I won't accept defeat.

For a hero's strength is measured by his heart

Like a shooting star, I will go the distance

I'll search the world.

I don't care how far!

I'll go the distance, till I find my Hero's Welcome!

Go Heros!

Disney's "You Raise Me Up" by Josh Groban

This song is dedicated to my parents who raised me up, so I can stand on mountains, to walk on stormy seas. You raised me up to more than I can be.

Thank you Mom and Dad.

HOW TO NAIL EVERY MEDIA & PRESS INTERVIEW  By Brendon Burchard


Watch an expert on CNN, guarantee they did the 4 things:
1) We need to pay attention and what to focus on e.g. price of oil...
2) If the price of oil hit $120 a barrel, here's what it means to us , to economy , to speculators
3) So how things works, price of oil dictating by speculators etc.
4) How things turn out in future, if it hits $120 and above, the economy will go into recession.
