The Frog

Hi there,

A very good indication of life from Dr Aziz during his Founder Diamond recognition.

Mr Frog 1:
If you put a frog into a pot filled with hot water, it will feel the heat straight away and leap out of the water very fast.

The moral of this story is - If we realize that working is not the only way to earn a living for the rest of our lives, we will leap out of the situation and find alternatives. If you do not want to work hard for money, then you have to find alternatives for money to work hard for you.

Mr Frog 2:
If you put a frog into a pot filled with cold water, it will stay in the pot, enjoying the cool temperature. Soon, a small fire was lit and the water gets heat up slowly. The frog feels the temperature of the water warming up, but it is too comfort for it to leap. After all, a little bit of warm is just nice.
Eventually, the water begins to boil, the frog is not able to leap out of the pot as its legs had been cooked.

The moral of this story is - Like Mr Frog 2, most of the time, a lot of us are too comfort with our working life. Mr Frog 2 feels very comfort with the temperature of the water that is warming up. Same goes to the 95% of people around the world who are trapped in the rat race environment. A little compliments or promotion or increments (the small fire which was lit up) gets us feeling happy, comfort and satisfy with our work and lives.

Somehow, it is just a trap (I would say), which keeps us busy everyday, working for money. You are now working so hard for money. Why can't money work for you? Do something with it!!

Is your drinking water safe to drink?

Hi there,

My Darling and I found an article about our drinking water.
Written by Mr Michael R. Long.

He mentioned that our rivers contain Pharmaceutical, which is drugs from drugstores or medication from patients. Expired drugs from drugstores can be thrown to anywhere like drains, rivers etc. When patients with medication flush toilets, where did the water goes??

According to Mr Michael R. Long, these Pharmaceutical component is able to feminize male fish. As for human, it can lead to cancer. We, human, are born with cancer cells in our body. With healthy diet and clean water, our cancer cells do not have the chance to spread. However, if we have an imbalanced and unhealthy diet, and imagining we and our kids drinking water which contains other people's heart disease medication (YUCKssss!!), will our cancer cells spread? That's why the rates of people dying of cancer keeps increasing..

Think about it..for those of you, who have children or going to have soon, imagining your children or your wife drinking water which contains other people's heart disease or diabetes medication..do you want to see them suffer from sickness when they grow up? Unless you're cold-blooded, sure you won't want to see such cases happens.

For those, who are using bottled water (like the one used in most offices), please beware!! Bottled water contains plastic chemicals.

Please value your health by taking and drinking clean and healthy diet and water!!

REMEMBER: The power to control your health rest in your hand.

Boiling Unfiltered Water..

Dear All,

Boiling unfiltered water is NO LONGER SAFE for drinking!!

This is our concern to all our relatives and friends, as well as the public.

Please be aware that boiled unfilter water is no longer healthy for drinking.

For those, who don't understand Mandarin, this is a video brief I summarized.

Part 1:

A broadcasted news from Taiwan about boiling water. There's a research done on a sample of human blood, that was taken out from human body within 2 min. Boiled water is then added to the sample of human blood. The result shows that our blood cells change colour and freeze in the end. In other words, there's certain substance in boiled water that damage our blood cells.

This research is proven by a doctor, who is based on toxic chemical. He commented that boiled water contains a substance called "ya siao suan yan (mandarin)", which after drinking for long period of time, caused harmful effect, such as cancer, to human body. He further emphasized that using boiling water, which contains such substance, to make milk for babies, the end result will be death.

Part 2:

In our modern world as of now, we achieved what we called advanced technology, that brings us convenience. But behind these, there are a lot of risks that we are taking. Pollutions on air and water, preservatives, chemicals, pesticides, additives and colouring..etc. These risks damage our friendly environment, our lives and health.

Medical research reported that:

  1. Human is taking more than 80 types of preservatives, chemicals and everyday without them knowing.
  2. Excessive pesticides and chemical sprayed on fruits and vegetables are causing pregnant women delivering unhealthy children.
  3. Every year, there are 6500 teenagers detected with cancer and 2200 toddlers died of cancer.
  4. Due to accumulation of toxic substances in our body, there are more than 2000 people detected with kidney problem.
  5. 1700K people detected with diabetes while 95000 people with heart problem. People with health problem increase every year.

Not only this as proof..recently one of my friend's father found out that he got cancer. His doctor warned him not to drink boiled unfilter water. Even our local doctor already start giving warning to patients. What are you guys waiting for?

Man!! This is health. Our precious! Dont ever make fun of it! Once your health degraded, you can never gain it back anymore! Think about it..if your children, your love ones, have been drinking "polluted" water since young, how can you imagine their blood will be in the next 20 or 30 years?

Ok, you may say, in the olden days, our great grandparents, our grandparents, our parents or earlier generation of our roots have been drinking boiled water. And they are now still very healthy. You should know how clean the air and water in the olden days, right? You should know that there's no preservatives, chemicals added to vegetables, poultry and fruits in the olden days right? How advance is the technology previously as compare to now? THINK!!

Boiling filtered water is SAFE for drinking!!

There are a lot of water treatment system (WTS) in the market nowadays. The competition is so overwhelming that a lot of companies are putting up powerful advertisements, in which they claim that their WTS is able to do so and so. Price wise..yes..attractive and affordable for average income family and even high income family.

Judging by the price and advertisements, are you able to tell yourself that you bought a WTS that can provide you good quality water? Water that is healthy and safe to drink? No, you always can't tell.

A good quality WTS is always backed by years of research, documented testing results, and certification by well-known non profit organization. If a WTS company claims that their WTS can perform this and that, please..request for the documented test results, check the product through http://nsf.org/ or http://wqa.org/ .

A WTS's performance as well as the accuracy of its advertisements should always be tested and certified by an independent and disinterested 3rd party, such as NSF and WQA. If a WTS is certified by a reputable non-profit company, you can be assured that the WTS's advertisements are not misleading and the product will perform as specified.

Please..I share with you this video and this blog..hoping that you will take precaution and appreciate the most valuable thing which GOD has given to us, our HEALTH. Think of your next generation..their health.

REMEMBER: The power to control your health rest in your hand.

We love and care for people around us..

Our parents, our love ones, our children..

Provide them the best in life..

Provide them a good quality WTS.

Business Opportunity.. Rejections.. Learn.. Experience.. Grow.. Lifestyle..

What kind of lifestyle do you all have in mind?
What kind of life you want to live for the rest of your life?

Life with scheduled routines.

7am Wake up..perhaps earlier..
7:15am Brush teeth.
7:20am Take bath.
7:45 am Change clothes.
8am Leave house to office.
8:30am Reach office. Take breakfast. Start work.
12:30pm Lunch.
13:30pm Continue work.
17:30pm Go home..stuck in the traffic jam for hrs.
19:00pm Reach home..rest a while. For those with kids, play with the kids. For ladies, prepare dinner. For those who are lucky enough, dinner is already served.
19:30pm Take bath. For ladies, probably still continue preparing dinner.
20pm Take dinner.
20:30pm Watch tv or educate the kids or continue work from home..who knows..
22:00pm Sleeping time.

This is a day routine and continue from Mon to Fri.

During working hours, you will probably get all this shit:
  • Scolded by boss or managers for nth/small mistake.
  • Back stab/betray by colleagues,
  • Tons of workloads, all urgent..
During weekends, probably get some rest and go shopping and eat outside with family.
When shopping, also "save save" spend.
Some even not willing to spend for food costs rm10..I know this..hehe..

Or you want this:

Mon, Tues, Wed,..., Sun
Wake up at 10 or 11 plus. Brush teeth. Take bath. Put on clothes..mmm..what should I wear to accesorize my attire with....For ladies, Prada or Gucci handbag..For guys, Timbaland or Nike shoes?..
Breaklunch with wife and friends..San Francisco Steak House or TGI Fridays?
Afternoon..Shopping at KLCC..bought a new pair of Tag Heuer watch for yourself and wife.
Tea time at Shangri La hotel..
Dinner with family at Hilton Hotel..wife hinted long time no relaxation. You direct suggested "ok, tmr we go to Maldives island.."
Then that nite straight book air ticket..first class somemore...
The next day, off you go..enjoy your honeymoon/holiday whateva you want to name it.. for a wk or 2 or even mths..

Well, everyone wants relaxing days ahead.

Unless those who just want to live a normal and average life.

How many ppl willing to work hard for the 2nd option lifestyle?
Even if they are willing to work hard for it, are their ways moving towards their goals correct?
Some ppl may say "I just want to be average. Live average life. Do average work. Earn average living.".
There's nothing wrong being average.
But, if a person is always doing stuff in average range, how can he/she know that he/she can do better than average?
Has anybody try doing sth out of average?

Everyone in this world is equal in GOD's eyes.
When you look at ppl who are very successful, who live the 2nd option lifestyle I mentioned above, you will often say "He is more intelligent than I do, tats y he can do it!"
You're wrong.

How do you know you can't?
How do you know you don't have the ability and strength to do it?
Have you ever tried?
How many times you try to move fwd?
Failed? Got rejected?
How do you see the rejection you face?
How fast, after you got rejected or failed, stand up and move fwd again?
Have you even try to stand up and move fwd?

Before I read a book..Reject Me I Love It! by John Fuhrman..
Everytime I failed an interview, I will moan a lot to myself and my hubby.
I even cried and think that I am not good enough.
Very very upset.
My hubby got so frustrated sometimes, but he still persuade me to not give up by giving me all sorts of encouragement.

After I read few chapters of Reject Me I Love It! by John Fuhrman..
My thinking changed.
I begin to understand that rejections are good and beneficial to me.
With rejections, I can stand up again after failed interviews..corrected myself..the way I should answer qs, the way I behave in front of interviewer..
I learnt.
I experienced.
I grow.
Now I will be joining Ogilvy

Before I read a book..Reject Me I Love It! by John Fuhrman..
I always think that I'm not good in sales.
I dont have the skills to sales.
I know I can't take it if I got rejected in promoting products, this is similar to the case which I got rejected from interviewer.
I didnt even try, I have already given myself -ve thoughts and discouragement.
Thats y I am always in the option 1 lifestyle, even till now.

After I read few chapters of Reject Me I Love It! by John Fuhrman..
I understand that rejections are beneficial as rejections let you learn, experience and grow.
I understand that I shouldn't have give -ve thoughts for myself b4 I start to do sth.
I understand that self-rejection (there's a list of self-rejections if u read by Reject Me I Love It!John Fuhrman) kills..
I understand that we have to live our life full of possibilities and +ve thoughts.
I understand that we must have a dream, a goal in our life which is able to make us move towards it.

My Darling and I now working on our AMWAY biz.
We just started.
It may take a long while b4 we can reach higher levels.
But with our goals of settling house loan within 8 yrs and giving ourselves and our children a good lives ahead, we are willing to go through rejections.

Ppl rejected me when I mentioned the word AMWAY.
If I havent come across John Fuhrman's book, I will quit easily.
Now, when I received rejections, I will go ahead with other potential users.

I will continue reading this book.
I will read this book again after finish.
If anyone of you come across this book, please get a copy and read.
My personal opinion is..John Fuhrman gives me the confidence and strength to move fwd.

**Ref: Reject Me I Love It! by John Fuhrman
--> Recommended book for ppl who are afraid of rejections but want to move fwd.

Global Warming

Lately I read news about global warming.
Scientists from foreign countries are saying that global warming is getting serious on our earth.
I wonder:
Anyone knows the meaning of global warming?
Anyone aware that our earth is facing this deadly human-caused disaster?


Global warming refers to the increase of earth's average measured temperature
(**Ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_warming).

Let us have a look at the temperature on our earth in the next 20 or 30 or 40 years later..

Do you all see the red zone on our earth in the next 90 years ahead of us?
How worst can it get to? What's the temperature at the red zone?
Maybe some of us will say..

Oh! C'mon! 90 years in future?
Who cares?
By that time, we all had passed away..


Yes, some ppl may or may not live 90 years later.

How about our next generations?

Our children, our grandchildren, our grad-grandchildren..

Can you imagine they suffer in this kind of environment?

Thanks to what their ancestor (we) did before..


What are the CAUSES? Let us see..

1. CO2 from factories, vehicles, air planes, buildings, etc.. (I hate this one very much)

2. N2O (Nitrous oxide) from fertilisers, open burnings, etc..

3. Deforestation - no trees/plants, more CO2, less O2


4. Use of environment unfriendly stuff - plastic bags, airconds, pesticide, etc..

Anyother causes which you guys can think, please feel free to drop your comments.


The EFFECTS of global warming:


Ladies and gentlemen..

We can do our part to keep our earth free from such disaster.

It is not some kind of natural disaster which we are unable to avoid.

This is human-caused disaster which only we, human, can help to save the earth.

Are you human?


WAYS TO SAVE OUR EARTH:

1. Minimize the use of airconds, pesticides, fertilizers, plastic bags

Use environmental friendly products..Cut down the use of airconds is good to health..

2. Ban open burning

3. Plant more trees to absorb CO2 and give out O2

4. JPJ should lay down rule that forbid dirty smoke emitted from all types of vehicles.

5. Health and environment department..(gov in short)..should take action to monitor closely factories or buildings which pass out smoke..


Remember this..3Rs

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle


All mentioned in this post are just some basic knowledge of mine about global warming.

But I guess it is basic enough to get you aware of our earth's condition.

If you still don't understand what global warming is..google it. ;)

Some tips to live ur life longer..

I found this useful, so share it here with you all..give me some feedback if you don't agree..

1. Don't worry

Worry is the least productive of all human activities and thoughts­.

2. Don't let needless fears preoccupy your life

Most of things we fear never happen!!!.

3. Don't hold grudges...

That is one of the biggest and most unnecessary weights we carry through our lives..

4. Take on one problem at a time

It's the only way to handle things anyway..one by one..

5. Don' t take your problems to bed with you.

They are bad and unhealthy companions for good natural sleep and rest...

6. Don't take on the problems of other people..

They are better equipped to handle their own problems than you are..

7. Don't live in the past.

It will always be there in your memories to enjoy..but don't cling to it.

Concentrate on what is happening right now in your life..and you will be happy in the present also..not just the past.

8. Be a good listener.

It is only when one listens..that one gets and learns ideas different from ones own...

9. Don't let frustration ruin and rule your life...

Self pity more than anything..interferes with positive actions..with moving forwards in our lives.

10. Count your blessings...

Don't even forget the smallest blessings.. As many small blessings add up to large ones...
