I received an email from Dan Millman, author of Way Of The Peaceful Warrior

Initially, the kids were a bit shy to be up on stage singing and after some time and encouragement to get them singing, they went up on stage singing some Chinese New Year songs as it will be the Lunar New Year of the Ox in a few days’ time.

There is definitely truth to the statement of Newton’s Law, when a body is in motion, it will continue to be in motion unless stopped by an outside force.

Why do I say that? Because when the kids started singing, they couldn’t stop.

We had a meet up on 6th January and this was the first time we had something like a book club where we were supposed to read a chapter of a book and get together to discuss what had the most impact from the chapter we had read.

The book we covered was Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, a classic that has sold tens of millions of copies worldwide and benefited numerous people like one of the Internet marketing gurus, Alex Mandossian, who claimed that he has read the book for more than 15 times.

Coincidentally, the chapter we were discussing yesterday was the Power Of The Mastermind because we felt that since we are going to form a mastermind group, would be great if we can start with this chapter.

The part that I had the deepest connection and shared on that day was from this paragraph:

“The positive emotions of thought form the side of the stream which carries one to fortune.  The negative emotions form the side which carries one down to poverty.”

Why was this paragraph stood out among the rest?

It was because I was totally distracted and very negative about what is going to happen for the rest of the years during the month of December 2008, where we were constantly bombarded with negative news about the world economy and it doesn’t help when friends commented of the job security.

As you know, I am currently still holding a full time job and needless to say, I am concerned too and with all the negativity that was surrounding me, I too became negative.

Thankfully, I was able to wake up from my negative thoughts and starting taking different action that would propel me to the positive attitude I always had.

In an event of synchronicity, this chapter of the Power of the Mastermind from Think and Grow Rich shows up at the most appropriate time and I am real glad to be part of this mastermind group and more importantly, I am really starting to believe that there are no coincidences.

So, do you have a mastermind group?  If not, are you looking for one?  If you are interested in joining our networking group, drop me an email and I will get in touch with you.

I must admit that after reading a few chapters of The Speed of Trust, I stopped reading it as I felt that it was quite plain and nothing fantastic but after reading the excerpts of it in The Passion Test, I had a realization why people are not joining the network marketing industry.

When I was first recruited into the business and wanted to start inviting my friends and relatives to come and take a look at the business opportunities, I was told not to tell them what was this all about.

“Just tell your friends and relatives that you want them to see and take a look with their own eyes, not yours”!” was what I was told by my uplines while inviting my friends and relatives.

Now when I thought back, I was wondering if there could be a possibility that my friends and relatives has said No to the business opportunity because I betrayed their trust in me?

Or perhaps I have not delved in deep enough to find out what was their take about the industry as a whole before pouring all the information on them?

Most people regardless of where they are right now, knows about MLM or network marketing.  Would it be better to be truthful and honest so that we still have the trust our friends and relatives have in us?

Since 2002, I have already been in this business part time together with my wife and I have to be honest, I am still not progressing as far as I thought I could.  Perhaps, there must be a paradigm shift for me right now to build this business on a different approach.

An approach of honesty, truthfulness and trustworthy to my potential business partners so that I am able to earn their trust in me to have a long term mutual beneficial business partnership.

Any comments on this?  Would appreciate if you can leave me some comments…

Thank you.

When Jan Bloom started the Bios Life Franchise about 15 years ago, she had no idea that it would turn out into a multimillion dollar business.  The financial success of Jan’s Bios Life Franchise has enabled her husband to retire early.

Jan Bloom has agreed to do another business presentation tomorrow and the presentation will focus on Bios Life Complete, Bios Life Slim and the Bios Life Franchise Opportunity.  This webinar is designed for individuals who have watched the business presentation video and have an interest in learning more.

If you have not watched the business presentation video, you can take a look at the following video:

As we were making our way to the pond, we saw the Prime Minister of Singapore, Mr. Lee Hsien Loong and his wife walking out from the Botanical Gardens.  We greeted him and my brother asked if it is all right to take to have a photo taken with PM Lee and he agreed.

We should have taken a family photo since my brother’s family and my family were there too but guess we were too excited and it was a bit too sudden as it was our first time seeing PM Lee.

This is the photo that my wife has taken for my brother with Mr. and Mrs. Lee.

Instead, it asked to set your passion.

What is the difference?According to what I have read from the book, “passions are about how you live your life and goals are about what you choose to create in your life and in order for you to list down your passions, you should complete the sentence : When my life is ideal I am _____________________________.”

In my journey of building my enterprise, I have been facing quite a number of challenges and just when I am going through some challenge, a book, CD or DVD would appear (where I would read, listen or watch) to provide a solution to the challenges I have.

The Passion Test book is again one of those book that is providing solutions to my challenge right now.

Thank you Chris Attwood and Janet Attwood.

I can never understand why a country like Japan that is so developed can command such a huge following and goes to say one thing about the network marketing industry:

“Network marketing thrives in any country regardless if it is a developed or developing nation as long as we find individuals who has a burning desire to succeed and more importantly, willing to make a difference in other peoples’ lives!”

Most people has a misconception about network marketing thinking that the friends are out “just to make money” from other friends.

This is not true!

In Robert Kiyosaki’s book, we are in the business of people who likes helping people and if you do not help enough people get what they want in network marketing, you will not be successful.

I am writing this post on Japan because New Year’s Day is a big day in Japan and during Stewart Hughes’ visit to Japan a few weeks ago, he has some exciting news to share and you can find out more what Unicity Japan is going to be in 2009!

The unemployment rates in US this year is extremely high. With more than 10 million people unemployed, the worries of a global recession is very real.

US, being the world’s biggest economy affects the whole world’s development. When the US sneeze, the rest of the world will be down with a flu.

When we are all affected by the economy, the biggest worry one will start to have is the security of one’s job. This is what is happening right now to my brother, who is getting concerned about being retrenched from his work.

Since it has not happened yet to my brother, I suggested to start planning something now and if he is being retrenched, then at least he has something to work on as a back up.

Most individuals do not have any back up plans or even not a clue about what they are going to do when or if they are retrenched.

I hope you are not one of those but if you are, start planning right now and I am sure you will be able to start your home business part time from the comfort of your home.

Should you want to know more what do I do, take a look at the video to see what I do.

As I was crossing the river in the boat, I cannot help but to be so thankful for where I am today, with access to the latest information technology, places with good hygiene and more importantly, the possibility of starting a home business.

Look at all the families that are staying by the riverside.  Do you think they have the luxury like you and I do who can start our business from the comfort of our homes?  They are living there, washing their clothes by the river, kids are jumping into the rivers to swim and I even see toilets by the rivers where individuals conduct their daily routines.

Come to think about it, I am really fortunate to have the luxury here updating my blog and am able to build my home business as compared to those people living by the river.

Are you giving reasons why you are not able to build your business?  If you are, think it should be time to start re-thinking whatever you have given are just plain excuses.

Take action now and always have that belief that anyone can build his or her own home business, it is not a matter of can or cannot, it is just a matter if they want it badly enough or not.

Should you want to know what home business am I building, you can take a look at the following video:
