How Picking Up 1 Cent Coins On The Street Can Lead You To Riches.....
I'm back again.How have you been during the past week?Hope you are had a blessed week.Today is Friday,so do enjoy yourself..........
I've been very busy as usual.And finally........I wrote my own book.Haha didn't expect me to be an author eh?You'll know when the time comes.........what my book is about.Stay tuned ok?
OK,time for tonight's topic............
Can picking up 1 cent coins on the street lead you to riches?
YES IT CAN!
Nope,I am not kidding.I'm perfectly serious about this..............
Let me explain why..........
It's all a matter of accepting.If you accept something given to you and be grateful about it,the Universe or God will give you more of it.If you have tried it before,you know what I mean.It may not be money you are grateful for.Probably some other things.
At the end of the day,whatever you are grateful for will multiply.
So coming back to the money on the street.The "1 cent" in the heading was meant to catch your attention.The fact is.........it applies that whatever small amounts you see on the street on in the park.As long as the person who dropped the coin is not around,trying to look for his coin,you are free to pick it up and keep it.
It may be a dollar,50 cents,20 cents ,10 cents,5 cents or 1 cent.Just pick it up and declare this out aloud,"I'm a money magnet,thank you thank you thank you!"
Once you do this,you will be able to attract more money into your life.GURANTEED!
Let me share something related with you...........
Poor people are lousy receivers,rich people are good receivers.If you notice,there are certain people out there,when you give them a compliment,they try to "deflect" it.Or if you try to bless them with a gift or some money,they won't accept it.
Then later they complain that they are poor,they are not blessed...........does that sound familiar?
I came across many of such people.And the sad thing is...........I was one of them once upon a time.If you happend to be like that..........don't worry,there's a cure.
The first thing you can do is to accept compliments.If someone tells you your shirt looks good,just reply,"Why,thank you." Don't have to pay them a compliment back.This is to program your mind to receive.
Now,you may be wondering,if you keep receiving,will you seem greedy?And will the person giving you be losing out?
The answer is NO for both questions.
Firstly,when you receive,you are doing the giving party a favour.By giving,the other party is blessed.If you don't receive,you are depriving him of his blessings.And let me tell you this,I hate it when people don't accept my gifts to them.So next time if I give you a gift,you know what to do ok?
Next,if you receive,you should also give.You may not give to the same person,but you should definitely give.Give to someone who is in need.Don't give to people who are greedy.(That's my policy)If you feel that you should not judge anyone and just give freely,by all means do it.
I admit here that I am not that nice.I hate people who take advantage and those cheapskates.Can never tolerate them.You may be the nice guy who can tolerate these people.Give to them,you will be mightily blessed.I'm still trying to overcome giving to these people.
Well,it feels good to give.Especially when you know that the other person is blessed because of you.And when you do that,you are indirectly telling yourself that you are super-blessed.And that will cause more blessings to come into your life.
Now,this is what I experience personally.You are welcome to follow what I do.
My philsophy is this "I afford can give because God's blessings are overflowing in me.I live in a world of abundance.If I run out of anything,God will fill it back for me."
Well,that's my topic for tonight.Next,I'll share about personal stuff........those who are interested can stay behind.If not you can start to leave my blog........
I have some thoughts that I think I should put them down.For my own reference as well as for you,if you happend to be thinking about the same thing...........
National Day has just passed.............our country is 41 this year.And.......this year,for the first time,I feel super-blessed being a Singaporean.Yes.........first time in the 26 years of my life I felt this way.Well,I may not feel proud,but I do feel blessed being a Singaporean.
Why?
I don't feel proud because I don't like the way certain Singaporeans behave.They are very inconsiderate in public places.Some of them are very selfish,for their own convience,they cause inconvienence to others.
If you drive and travel by plane on Economic Class,you'll know what I mean.They are good at obstructing the way.Sometimes when I'm overseas and someone asks where I am from,I answer Singapore and they seem to look at me in another way.(Not so good way).
Do Singaporeans really have a bad reputation in other countries?For being "kiasu",inconsiderate,blur?Well,I don't know.
Let me tell you why I feel blessed.........
I feel blessed because we are safe here.There are no natural disasters,the country is safe to be in.The police force here is efficent.You can walk alone in the wee hours and don't have to worry about being mugged.Our government is good,there is no corruption.
I didn't feel this way previously because I didn't know what it was like in other countries.Recently,I started to make it a point to pray for those who needed prayer in Daily Guide Posts.com.I realised that there are many people staying in other countries who live in fear everyday.
They don't know when their houses will be blown away by the typhoon,or burnt down by forest fire.Some of them don't know where their next meal is coming from.Of course there are others who are fearful because of the dangerous place they are staying in.
When I came back from Penang,there was this middle-aged gentleman sitting across me on the coach.He was from Jakarta and he told me that they live in constant fear everyday.He was a rich businessman who went to Penang to have an operation.He told me the prices were reasonable and the doctors are good.
When I asked about Jakarta,he told me that at night,no one dares to go out.The crime rate is very high and the robbers there are violent.You can get killed anytime.The law enforcement there is not strict.You can kill someone and get away with it.
Try that here and you see what happends.
So I really feel blessed to be staying in Singapore.If you are a fellow Singaporean who is unhappy,don't complain.You are really blessed.
Next is about family relationships..............
I received a call from my business partner,Benedict last night.He needed to speak to me urgently.He mentioned that he was at a loss..............should he quit school and go full time into the business or continue but fail the subjects?
I take my hat off him.It is not his fault that he ended up there,but yet he is still considering about the money his parents will be wasting if he fails...........Personally I feel that if they force him to go there,they can't complain if he fails.
Let me share the whole story here...........I'm sure Ben wouldn't mind me sharing.......
He's a Junior College student who continued his studies in NTU(university) because his parents wanted him to have a degree.He studied Bio-sciences in NTU,because his mum wanted him to.He had no interest in the subject and struggled with the course.
Finally he couldn't take it and quit.Then his mum compelled him to study Physiotherapy in Australia.He agreed to go even though it wasn't what he was really interested in.............
He wanted to study about business.He wants to become a successful businessman.But his parents didn't see it in the same way.Simple reason.......because they believe you got to "Study hard,get a good job.........."
They are operating in a different mindset as us.I got shot by his dad at the Airport for introducing Ben to the Neways opportunity.He spoke with contempt.I nearly fired back,but I didn't want to because after all he was Ben's dad.
Ben told me yesterday that he had no motivation in going for lessons.His whole heart and soul is in our business.See,I told you I was super-blessed.I have a commited partner.*smiles*
Back to the story..........through the teleconversation,we explored the different scenarios that will happen if he came back to Singapore or if he remained in Australia.At the end we decided that it was better for him to remain in Australia.
Because if he came back,his parents will make him work and they will definitely screw him hard for not completing the course.But is it his fault?NO,definitely not!In the first place,they should have let him studied what he wanted to.Encourage him to pursue his goals.
Coming back to me...........I'm also in a similar situation as him.But praise God,at least I have a supportive mum.My dad condemns me.He always compares me with my brother.My brother has good grades and has a great future in store for him.His course director and lecturers hold him in high esteem.
What about me?A condemned poly student,who did poorly in school.And had no desire to go for a degree.Doomed.No future at all.Right?
WRONG!My future is in my own hands.I create my own destiny.
But there is a price for all this.........you have to be able to withstand the condemnation.Not only that,you have to be strong so that you won't crumble down when those negative remarks reach you.
Let me tell you,not only my dad condemns me,the bitch Dennis Trident and her daughter also looks down on me.She'll openly say nice things about my cousin Richard in front of me.When her friends come,she'll introduce Richard and treat me transparent.
Not only that,she's always finding trouble for me.Why?Because she feels that I'm living on the Pharoah and it will affect the amount of money she's going to inherit.She and my dad have been trying to psycho the Pharoah not to sponsor me for any trips.
What will you do if you were me??
Hahaha I don't give a damn about them.Seriously.To me they are just low class animals.Not worth my attention.Sorry if I sound offensive.But that's my personality.I don't mince words when I insult people I dislike.
That's one of the prices you pay to be go "your way".The whole world will tell you what is "good for you".But at the end of the day,it's "good for them" and not "good for you".People are selfish,for their own interest,they can "kill and destroy" another person's future.
Let me tell you this............NO ONE DECIDES YOUR FUTURE.YOU DECIDE YOURSELF.
No amount of condemnation can stop you from achieving your dreams and goals.Only yourself.
These bastards can condemn me all they want.But at the end of the day,I will still emerge victorious.I know my destination in life.
What's yours?
If you don't have one,find one.If you have one,go all out for it!
You have to find one..................or live in mediocrity for the rest of your life.
Remember,you are not here to please anyone.You can't please everyone in this world.Someone will hate you somehow.
Many people make this mistake.They want to be Mr Nice Guy and please everyone.End of the day,they suffer.Like me..............I suffered because I tried to please everyone.If you ask Ben,he went through the same shit too.
People don't appreciate you.They treat you like a sucker!You become like a ball,they can kick you anywhere.Of course I'm not telling you to be aggresive and offensive.You can be a nice guy in other areas of your life,but when it comes to your future,DON'T COMPROMISE!!!
One of the worse scenarios is being condemned by your own parents.I really feel sorry for you,if you are facing this situation.But don't give up!Keep going for your goals and dreams!You only have ONE LIFE.Are you going to live in vain??
I am not.To hell with all these bastards.What do they know?They want you to do what they want you to do for their own interests.
For Ben's and my case,just because we don't want to study what our parents want us to study,in their eyes,we are failures.
But in reality,we know we are not.WE ARE CHAMPIONS!!
Parents,don't condemn your children.Sometimes you may have their highest interests at heart,but do listen to them.Find out what they really want.If they have a goal or dream,support them wholeheartedly and encourage them.They will appreciate it.
You know..............sometimes when you keep being a good boy or nice guy,at your own expense..............one day.........hatred will consume you and you will rebel.Not only rebel,you might do crazy things which will harm yourself.
That happended to me before.I felt victimized and started to go crazy.I did a lot of things that I shouldn't have done.Things that harmed others and myself.I just wanted revenge back then.I hated the whole world!I always "Why me?".I got really hateful especially when I saw others having what I did not have.
Haiz.........that was my past.But praise God!I have been forgiven for all my sins and I am a different person now.Trust me,you won't want to know me a few years back.
Oh well,the lesson is to learn to say NO when you need to.Don't try to be Mr Nice Guy everytime.You'll hurt yourself.Say YES only when you really can.I'm not saying you shouldn't help anyone,but exercise prudency.
Long post isn't it?Just wanted to let go of some emotions and thoughts......if you are being condemned,don't get upset.Because by getting upset,you can't change people's thoughts about you.I'll urge you to fight on for your dreams.
Your dreams are worth it.Leave the nay sayers behind.Charge on my friend!Be courageous!
Thank you for reading.God bless you!
I've been very busy as usual.And finally........I wrote my own book.Haha didn't expect me to be an author eh?You'll know when the time comes.........what my book is about.Stay tuned ok?

yeah.... parents are the worst bunch of people.... they tried to influence their own child to do what they wanted them to be..... like my dad, ask me to do this do that, everytime he shakes his head and condemns me... when was the last time he encourages me as a earthly father... answer is NEVER, it was my MUM.. I always uses this story, when you are sowing a seed(a child), you never bless him(educate him, encourage him), you expect to reap anything from him? my dad is a very demanding person, anyone else can be wrong he scolds them but when he is wrong, no one can scold him else he will rip his head off and will hit him or her even his own wife... my mum suffered, everyone suffered... but iron sharpens the iron, we may have a lousy family but I desired to create a new happy family heavenly blessed... in this world how many people can realise their own mistakes and corrects them with grace... i realise people loves to see the sufferings of others, thus i learnt that the frens that you keep today is very important for tomolo... if you got a spiderman(u know who) who tells you everyday that you dun deserve a girl till 35 and funny thing is dandruff were falling from his head .... tells a better looking guy what to do... feel like arguing but... I remembered god, i let it go... forget about it, anger produces more anger and no results or any help to the situation... thus we shall see who has the last laugh.. i seriously dun believe degree will have rich lives....

Well,we haven't got a choice.After we can't change people......losers remain losers for the rest of their lives,unless they change themselves.......
I think we shouldn't waste too much time on them.Just focus on our journey and our destination.They are like passing clouds.....they will be gone anyway.What's important is we must be on the right path and don't let these losers affect us in anyway.
You are a nice guy.If I were in your shoes,I'll definitely be so sacastic to him that he'll never try his nonsense on me again!Being gracious is one thing.Maybe this is my character.....if I feel that a person doesn't deserve my respect anymore,I'll fire away full blast.I'll not give him/her any face.Because I have given enough chances.
It takes a lot of effort to really piss me off.I'm quite tolerant by nature.But when I reach my limit,I don't give a damn about their feelings,I'll go all out to blast them.
But I agree with what you said,anger produces more anger.The only thing I believe will help the situation is that once these people know that you are not to be "fucked around with",they will not dare to piss you off anymore in the future.In certain cases,we need to defend ourselves.
If the problem is not too big,just let them off.After all,they will not go very far in life.But if they are really obstructing your way,you need to take action against them.
