2010, A Year Of Making Things Happen!

31st December 2010

2010 has been an exciting year, filled with more ups than downs (opposite values are complementary). However, as we move into the last day of 2010, I would like to take some time to express my Gratitude and Thanks for all the things that have gone well this year and reflect on some of the milestones and accomplishments.

When I first met Robert Allen in May 2010, I made a solemn promise to Bob that "This is the year I will Make It Happen!" In fact, I have never worked so hard in my life. As a result, 2010 for me has been one of the most productive years of my life.

It has been a year of Fun Learning, Growth and Achievements.

Here (in no particular order) are some of my more memorable moments from 2010.

1. August 5th, 2010. The birth of infiniteskies! Even though I have been writing ads, tv commercial and radio scripts for the past 17 years, I would not have imagined myself blogging. Ever. Finally picked up the courage to express myself and let the world read me like an open book.

2.  May 16-18th. I spent 3 full days with "bestsellerbob" Robert G. Allen, in the Multiple Streams of Income workshop in KL. These 3 days marked the beginning of my journey in Internet Marketing as well as creating a second income stream.

This was also the year I got inspired by Mr Tony Blair who spoke about how vital Change is, on a global scale, at the KL National Achievers Convention 2010.

and mentor, Robert Allen. May 2010.

3. August 13-18th. I was graced, touched and moved by the presence of my dearest Guruji, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. Was at the airport to welcome Him on the 12th. Helped out before the public talk at Wisma MCA, KL on the 13th. And spent Magical Moments With The Master in Penang for the next five days!

4. September 2010. Got into Shaun and Vince Mastermind, the elite programme for internet marketing students.

5.  October 12th. Got my first payout from internet marketing - USD90.93! It's the first time I'm paid in USD. :)

6. July 2010. A noob in Internet Marketing, I learned how to create a website from scratch and got it ranked on the first page of Google on the first day itself! My first website eventually got to Number 1.

7. August 10th. Recorded Sangh Gacchatwam with PW at Angel Studio recording studio. What an amazing experience and an unforgettable night. Thanks again, PW and Mr T.

Our first single! Sangh Gachhatwam has 3 tracks.

8. January 2010. Repeated my Art Of Living Basic Course at Taman Tun. It was a different experience the second time. And the message for me was on Forgiveness. Thank you, PW, for taking me through the process.

As a direct result of Guruji's Grace, I have since forgiven a friend and patched things up after one year plus of useless Anger and Silence. Thanks, V. Am glad we worked things out! For me, that was an invaluable lesson on how not to take Friendship for granted, and the healing power of Forgiveness.

9.  Dec 5th. Celebrated Dad's 81st birthday at "Hu Jing Ge" Chinese Restaurant, Flemington Hotel, Taiping. Even though we could barely fill half the table (there were only 4 of us), the memories from that weekend will always be cherished.

10. Last but not least...

Oreo, who thinks he's a dog!

Thank you for teaching me all about Patience, Responsibility, Playfulness, Joy and most especially, Unconditional Love. Who would have thought that before this, I was afraid of cats! I have only had dogs my whole life.

Let's move forward and make 2011 an even better year in terms of Health, Wealth and Relationships, for all of us.

Carpé diem and wishing all of you a Happy, Joyful and Peaceful 2011! Keep smiling :)

What You Focus On Expands

26th October 2010
4:05AM
Today, I got a message from a friend. The message read, "I have you to thank, Ming, for the positive mindset." 

I was surprised and flattered at the same time. Even though I'm not sure what it was I did exactly.

My mind flashed back to a few weeks ago, when my then-stressed-out-friend was sharing all her challenges and frustrations in funding for her flight tickets, passport, hotel and other expenses for our upcoming intensive Internet Marketing training in Phuket. She was in a really tight spot and was feeling down.

I asked her to change her thoughts. Instead of saying "I have no money", ask questions like "HOW can I find the money?" - something I learned from Robert G Allen at his LIVE training in KL recently. After all, Harv Eker also emphasized at his Millionaire Mind Intensive Seminar in 2007 (I attended MMI twice in one year) that, what you focus on, expands.

To cut a long story short, this friend somehow found the money, just to lose it all today, due to a health emergency. And Phuket is just 25 days away!

Here's what my friend said, "While I was crying and thinking about how to find money, someone I have not heard from in a long time called and asked me how I am, and if there's anything he can do to help."

"Before he called, I was focusing on your words...What you FOCUS on expands...and I FOCUSed on good luck coming my way..."

I didn't realize that a spontaneous line that I remember from one of the great Success Coaches, can impact someone the way it did, and make a positive difference.

My friend reaffirmed this. "Ya lah, a lot you said you don't realize right? Indirectly teaching about life, opening up our minds..."

"And your infiniteskies :)"

This blog? That is another pleasant surprise!

I guess the biggest power a human being possesses, is the Power of Choice. Instead of wasting precious time (and energy) complaining, arguing, bitching and focusing on all the things that are going wrong in our lives, we can all adopt an Attitude of Gratitude, count our blessings, and CHOOSE to share positive thoughts and messages with our friends, family, and the world.
