The 3 Circles of Utilizing Your Strengths to Achieve Dreams

Which circle(s) are you in now?

Do you have passion and expertise but there is a lack of market, leading you to a hobby?

Do you have expertise and market but there is lack of passion, leading you with an idea?

Do you have passion and market but there is lack of expertise, leading you to a job?

Do you have passion, expertise and market that lead you to your dream?

I strongly believe that as long as I find the missing links to combine all the 3 elements (PASSION, EXPERT & MARKET), I’ll definitely achieve my dreams.

We always heard these sayings, aren’t we?

“Success won’t come in a single day and step. Thus, be prepared to go through the hardship as this is where you & I will gain most out of the learning process.”

Heart, The Centre of Love & Security

Oh, I haven’t even started on this time-consuming task and the deadline is in few days time. I need to hurry to Point B in 30 minutes during peak hour. I need to produce the best results within a limited time to avoid spending more time on amendments. Shall I stay or leave my job? Time passes so fast and it’s already end of the day/week yet nothing much has been done. I want to complete it but there are just way too many distractions and clutters to steal away my focus and commitment. Reminders after reminders have been given yet not much has been done…

Do all these sound familiar to you? I have experienced all these and I really hate the intense feeling it creates. It is not a pleasant feeling, a feeling that sucks out every energy, life and health out of me. No matter how much I struggle to contain the feeling (via motivational quotes, meditation, relaxation, hobbies etc), it just hit back now and then as only the immediate symptoms were solved but not the root problem. What’s more, it definitely brings my risk of heart disease to a higher level (heart disease runs in my family from my grandmother to my aunty to my father).

Sometimes, I question why we need to move fast, why some just move slowly causing disruption to the process, what’s my purpose here etc…

Few weeks back, I was given the opportunity to attend a talk on 3-Dimensional Heart Care by Dr. Satish Kumar Gupta. It was a thought-provoking talk by Dr. Satish…

Starting from this point, I began to understand holistic way to health.

"If we are angry, our blood flow will be disrupted for 3 days. If we are stress, our blood flow will be disrupted for 5 days." And imagine, if you have been living under constant stress for years.

Causes of decreased in relaxation period (first sign of heart disease):

* Decreased relaxation of heart – heart is already tired before each beat

• Extra pressure of modern fast paced life
• Stress & strains
• Hurry sickness
• Aims to achieve excellence in a short period
• Anger, anxiety
• Fear, insecurity
• Sensitive & emotional behaviour

also include:

• Physical stress – lifting weight, climbing stairs, running
• Mental stress
• Exposure to extreme cold or hot weather

What I and everyone needs to do is to “Dis-eased coronary artery” as angioplasty & bypass will only be able to treat symptoms, not the root problem, thus there are possibilities of recurrence of blockage/angina.

Health is a dynamic process of harmony in flow of spiritual, mental & physical energy.

HEALTHY = HEAL + THY self

HEALTHY = SWASTH = SWA (innerself/soul) + STH (conscious)

HEALTHY = SOUL CONSCIOUS

Heart, the centre of love and security…

Breathe in (expand your stomach), breathe out (flatten your stomach), breathe in, breathe out…

Relax, relax, relax, relax, relax…

The Power of Focus & Positive Thinking

Personal Experience 1:

I remember about a month ago, when I have completed reading Confucius From The Heart by Yu Dan (于丹), I posted this question on my Facebook wall, “Does anyone know where I can get a copy of The Analects of Confucius?” During that time, the feeling of owning a copy of the 2,500 years life philosophy and knowing it by heart was deeply engraved in my heart. I have yet to see it in any bookstore before this (perhaps there is but I’m just ignorant at that time) and I have given it up after awhile as I always have this belief that something I longed for will turn up right in front of me unexpectedly one day.

Few weeks ago, when I browsed through the books available at Popular Book & Music Fair held on 6-24 April 2011 at Sunway Pyramid, Selangor, Malaysia, a greenish book with black words and a graphic of a sage caught my eyes. And it turned out to be none other than “The Analects of Confucius”! Without much thought, I grabbed the book and proceeded to the payment counter with the other 2 books I have chosen – The Secret by Rhonda Byrne and Awakening: Asian Wisdom for Every Day by Danielle and Olivier Follmi.

Personal Experience 2:

April was a month full of surprises. I was very lost at the brink of giving up, accept faith as it is and don’t want to care anymore. No more dream, no more this and that. Just do what I need to do and expected of me. But deep inside my heart, I really wanted to search for ways to break free from my current life.

Suddenly, I could see lights at the end of the tunnel when a high school mate bugged me on Facebook. After few chit-chat sessions, he invited me to attend a workshop on Enneagram (our personalities are divided into 9 types and each of us has a bit of the 9 types with one core personality) where I started to understand why certain people act differently in certain situation and how one’s personality changes to another personality when he is not resourceful. I decided to sign up for Personality Assessment where I would get one-to-one coaching on how to improve my current life based on my personality.

My friend and I had a chat and he said that if I want to do what I love to do – traveling around the world to record the essence of life via words and photography - I would need to look for a passive income (auto income generator even when I am not working). This matter has been on my mind ever since and I got the touch of it over the last weekend when I attended Global Internet Seminar held on 29 April – 1 May 2011 at Wisma MCA, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The speakers were so awesome in imparting a millionaire mindset in all attendees, convincing everyone in the hall that with internet business, we will be able to earn hundreds and millions when we are sleeping and on vacation, and the best part of it is it can help us to generate income to pay for all our bills even faster than working for others (our job). It sounds so good, working few hours a day and could earn double and triple of our current monthly income in just a day or few. However, I understand that it comes with hard work in building the foundation and networks. Despite this, I see the opportunities in it.

I feel that Heaven is giving me opportunity and after opportunity and now, it is up to me whether I am able to sense and grab it. We always hear this “opportunity usually comes unexpectedly”, don’t we?
