How to Remove Procrastination?

Hi Friends

Recently, I received a call from a friend that was asking me on how to remove procrastination.

He was already doing well in Real Estate in terms of pay and he wanted to achieve more. However, whenever he wanted to work on his action items, he would procrastinate. That’s when he gave me the call.

So how do you remove procrastination?

Let me share with you a TRUE story regarding an Indian couple:

Back in 2005, there was this Indian couple in Singapore in which the husband was having a kidney failure. For such cases, you only have 2 choices: Dialysis or Kidney Transplant. I know you know that dialysis would be a painful and torturing process where depending on the severity of the condition, the patient would be required to go for dialysis at least 3 times per week. However, there was a person who volunteered to donate her kidney to this man ……. this person is her wife. My question to you is this. Do you think that the wife would procrastinate knowing that if she don’t donate her kidney, her husband would die?

I know you will say “NO”, the wife would not procrastinate. Why NOT?

Let me ask you this question, if waht you are going to do TODAY is as important as donating your kidney to your very love one, would you procrastinate?

Until the day that your GOAL is EXTREMELY COMPELLING, procrastination will consume you. However, if you know how to create a COMPELLING GOAL or use NLP tools to manage your procrastination, then your LIFE WILL CHANGE FOREVER!

Let me share with you how you can REMOVE PROCRASTINATION by attending our Free NLP Workshop NOW!

Check out what they say about my NLP training.

Getting Opportunities Vs Law of Attraction

Dear Friends

Whenever I conduct seminars or workshops, I consistently get 2 questions from the audience:
1) How come I always did not have opportunities while others have?
2) I have watched “The Secret” many times, but how come I am still unable to attract the things that I want if Law of Attraction really exists?

There is no “Secret” really. It is a known fact that has been converted into a “Secret”. Let me explain in simple terms. Recently, I have been conducting Social Media Workshops to share how businesses can increase their revenue by using free Social Networking Sites such as Facebook. Assuming that all the users have the same amount of knowledge on how to use Facebook. The question is why some could ’see’ opportunities in this platform while others couldn’t?

Let me share a 2 reasons out of so manyn of them:
1) Goals/Vision - Goal setting is so important and yet simple that many people take this for granted. If you have a clear goal of what you want, your ‘radar’ around your Goal will be switched on. In other words, your brain will automatically be on the alert mode such that you will be able to see anything (or opportunities) that is related to your Goal directly/indirectly. Some uses the scientific term Reticular Activating System (R.A.S.) to explain the exact portion that puts the brain on high alert. Play this simple activity: while you are reading this, what are the items in your surrounding that are white in colour (Your goal)? You will realised that you start to pick up items that are white (Opportunities come to your awareness). If I did not ask this question, all the white items are NOT in your awareness. Last evening, I just make 1 single neuro-connection in my mind that could increase my company turnover by 50% even in a economic crisis.

2) Beliefs - Is the current economic situation a crisis or an opportunity? Everyone would say that it’s an opportunity. But when I ask what is the opportunities that they see? Most of the trainees have problem answering that. So how does Beliefs allow someone to see opportunities? Assuming that 2 people share the same goals, one would not see opportunites if that person does not believe that he can reach the goal and vice versa.

Let me share with you a real life story of a trainee of mine. In this current economic crisis, he sees an opportunity to start a loan company (he has a Clear Goal right from the start) with a paid-up capital of S$200,000 such that he can help more people as more people are in need of money during bad times. But he has no money. So how can he start a company with S$200,000 to start making money with NO MONEY??

He DID!

If for a split second that you think it’s impossible, that’s your Limiting Belief blinding you from seeing the possibility of this opportunity, which is why one may NOT spot opportunities at all. So do you know how he did it?

Ask me on my workshop on the 7th Jan 09 at http://www.nlpinsingapore.com/free-nlp-preview-workshop.

Don't blame me if you start SEEING OPPORTUNITIES after the workshop!

NOBODY TO SOMEBODY

Hi Friends

The clock is ticking ..... in a few days time. Year 2009 will be a thing of the past. We will grow older by 1 year, the Earth would have completed 1 round of revolution around the Sun, the IR would be nearer to completion, and the list goes on....If you have read the Life Section of Straits Time today, you wo...uld have came across a young man (age:32) by the name of Eldwin Chua who has came far from a nobody 'zi char' cook to Paradise Group CEO which has 8 Chinese restaurants.I have friends who own restaurant but closed one after another. Some left with only one. Others closed all of them mainly because of the high rental. The interesting point is that Eldwin opened one restaurant at ION Orchard. You just need to speculate the rental/month that he needs to invest. So what makes him so successful? A few behavioural traits that are commonly found in all successful individuals:

1) 200% Focus on his Business - he eat, sleep & breathes restaurant
2) He slog - there is no replacement for hardwork. If you want to get-rich-quick, watch "Money Not Enough I & II"
3) He has a product that many Singaporeans crave - Creamy Butter Crab, an alternative to Chilly Crab
4) Constant innovation to differentiate his product - he hired a talented Head Chef from Pine Court Chinese Restaurant to create unique dishes
5) Empowering Beliefs - his dream was to bring his company to be publicly listed in 3 years. In 3 years time, he would only be 35.

What do you believe in? ......... the clock continues to tick ..... and I would like to wish all of you ......

A CLEAR, FOCUS AND RESULT-PRODUCING 2010!!

SOMEWHERE OUT THERE

Hi Friends

Today is the beginning of another fantastic week where each one of you is working towards your goals and dreams, not to mention, Christmas which is round the corner.

I would like to share with you a movie clip of one of my favourite movies, starring Jodie Foster, by the name of "Contact" to help you begin your week.

In a nutshell, Contact is the story of a radio astronomer (Jodie Foster) who has been fascinated with the Universe since she was a little girl. She then spent her entire life searching for intelligent life forms.......until one day, she discovers an intelligent signal broadcast from deep space where she was able to decrpyt the radio signals. After decryption, the radio signals were meant to ..............

As a child, do you have a dream where you always wanted something but you were to young to achieve this dream? I have always wanted a huge telescope where I can place in somewhere so dark that I could look up to the dark starry sky and watch the universe whole night long. Well, I could afford one now.

If you have a dream and you have always wanted to achieve it since you are little child, watch this movie. In the meanwhile, this movie clip is for you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmSYXbgcozY&feature=related

Have a great week ahead and an early Merry Christmas!

Join me in my next workshop on 29th Dec at http://www.nlpinsingapore.com/free-nlp-preview-workshop.

See you!

HOW HUNGRY ARE YOU IN GETTING THE THINGS THAT YOU WANT?

Hi Friends

Whenever I run my workshops, most of them would kindly shared that their current top concern is money, career or business. Some would specifically said that they want to be financially free. I would then followed up with another question: "Are you able to able to increase your income by $200 per month for the next 12 months?". Majority of them would have doubts saying that they would have problems and so on and so on........ Why would so many of them still struggle with a challenge of just increasing their income by $200 per month when some of them are even Diploma holders and Degree Holders? One key reason: they ask the wrong question. Whenever they are given a challenge, the question that pops up first is "Can or Cannot?" or "Why cannot?". So what happen next? There is a 50% chance that they will find reasons to say why they can't do it or even more. Worse still, they would spend most of their time finding reasons why it can't be done.

One way to help them to get the amount that they way is simply to ask the question "How?". I repeat, simply ask "How?" and nothing else.

Let me share some simple things one can do just to make that extra $200:
1) My part-time helper will come to my house to do cleaning every Sunday. For every hour, she makes $10. She works 5 hours and that will give her $50. She comes 4 times a week and she makes $200/month
2) Give tuition. This is particularly useful for people who are Diploma or Degree Holders. 1 student will easily fetch you more than $200
3) Do some work with higher value ranging from selling toys to insurance to houses, etc. Anything can be sold.
4) The list to generate $200/month goes on and on .........
As such, the problem does not lie with the lack of ideas. The problem lies with the fact that person is NOT hungry enough. When you are at the verge of hunger, you will do anything....do anything to fill that hunger.

Let me share with you a video that was shared by one of our Coaches. Watch it, give it some thought and ask yourself this question: "How hungry are you in getting the things that you want!" I frequently asked myself this question to drive me.

SUCCESSES FROM OUR GRADUATES

Hi Friends

Recently, we had a Christmas Party at George's house from Swish 10 and Master Swish 01 a few days back with some graduates bringing their children and spouse along. It's really a good start for all of us to gather and I am looking forward towards another one organise by our graduates. Friendship is something money can't buy and I am glad to be in this journey with all of them.


Let me share with you the successes that some of the graduates have achieved (based on my knowledge):
1) Caleb (Master Swish 01) - found his emotion again and regain confidence in building relationship with people. In addition, he is attached now. Wow!
2) Danny (Master Swish 01) - taken giant steps, phobia replaced by confidence and he opened new markets in Bangkok and KL
3) Endang (Master Swish 01) - her 1st training in Jakarta has been confirmed in Jan 2010. I will be joining her in Jakarta. Looking forward.
4) Joshua (Master Swish 01) - continued his Toastmasters journey and taken various steps moving towards being a CIO (Chief Information Officer)
5) Serene (Master Swish 01) - left her job and brought forward her 10-year goal to now
6) Cassandra (Swish 10) - 1st graduate in the class to quit her job and reached her goal to become an Executive Secretary
7) Keith (Swish 10) - gained 4 kg. More muscular looking now.
8) Sean (Swish 10) - became my business partner and both of us founded Value Investing Academy. One of my goal is to create a programme that can create multiple sources of income and I am glad we are movinbg forward
9) Michael (Swish 09) - achieved his goal recently by completing his 21km run in Standard Chartered Marathon

I am already looking forward towards year 2010 as it will be another exciting year. It does not matter whether what the outside world is. It only matters what your inner world is.

This afternoon, I went to this place at Macpherson Road called FightWorks Asia aiming to train up my physique in a fun way. While I walked out of their office, I saw a black & white painting of Bruce Lee and a quote beside him that states “Knowing is not enough, you must apply; willing is not enough, you must do.” A quote for you!

Cheers!
