SPECIAL NOTICE
Now, you may be wondering How can all these power of thoughts possibly
help me, let alone change my life?
In order to answer that question, allow me to share with you my personal story.
I am in my mid 20s, born and raised in a tiny island named Singapore.
This is the first time that I am penning this down.. In honor to my mum.
basically conform to those activities as mentioned above. She was young, only
in her 40s.
Years on, as young as age 12 or 13, I started doing all kinds of odd jobs you
can think of.. Distributing flyers, street surveyor, factory worker, Macdonald
crew, outdoor sales, and at some point, holding up to 2-3 jobs at any one time. I
can still remember, at the age of 16.. Because it pays well to work in the
midnight shift, I took on a job as a factory production operator from 9pm to
6am, standing for hours in the production line putting some sort of adhesive
glue on some motor parts. The in-charge was demanding and strict. I had to be
quick in order to meet the tight production dateline, doing gluing and more
gluing. This process has to be done in a repetitive rhythm mode for hours, with
minimal rest, standing. Working in a clean room environment, wearing a clean
room suit with headgear, face mask and latex gloves, it was an unforgettable
experience. I will return home to sleep between 7am to 2pm. In order to save
some money from dinner, I will work between 4-8pm at Macdonald as meals
will be provided, before heading to the factory at 9pm. This went on for at least
3 months. It was tough, but I never complain, because I had a choice, and that
was my choice at that point in time. As I was able to earn some good decent
money on my own accord and for the family, I felt somewhat blissful;)
Awwww, memorable! Some school mates or acquaintances often judge me as
someone who is money minded, materialistic, snobbish and arrogant. Honestly,
I didnt care how others judge me neither will I bother to share what was going
on at home, or what exactly we were going through to people who may not
mean anything to me.

Because daddy was always busy at work, a brother whom I wasnt close to at
that time, financial woes, mummys illness; all of these have taken a toll on me,
since the age of 8. There were times where I will have thoughts like that; If I
can never awake from my sleep to face the reality, call me a coward, I will
rather leave all these behind me.
It was so hard for the family but often have to put up a brave front in front of
mummy. It was a blow to her and terribly hard on us, but whats going through
her was definitely 100x more. Throughout the ordeal for years, I was the
closest to mummy. Often by her bedside, doing my school homework, talking
and joking with her, or simply to accompany her.
No matter how much the family puts up a brave front in front of mummy,
always smiling and joking by her side, but deep down.. I know mummy knows
well what is going on within the family. Mummy often cried, blaming herself
for not taking care of us. She often told daddy to look for a new wife, often call
out to me, weeping and blaming herself for not taking care and protecting me.
When she knows I'm bullied, there is nothing she can do but to put the blame
on herself. Mummy will often ask me, if she passes on, how.. What will happen
to me.. I will always give her a brave smile, holding her hands, avoided her
question and reassuring her that everything will be okay.
I know I will have to be strong, for her to be strong. I have to be happy, for her
to be happy. No matter how much hardship and pressure I am facing the world,
I learn to tolerate, swallow my pride and keep it to myself so as not to add on
additional burden to my family. I did well academically, and I can still recall
the happiness and pride on her face whenever I show my results and reading
out the teachers appraisal to her. Is one of the little things I do to make her feel
that she is a mother she can be proud of.. I will never forget those moments
with her!

Mummy went in and out of the hospital a couple of times due to complications.
On at least one occasion, we were told to prepare for the worse. She taught me
what courage means, to witness her conquering each hurdle as she pulls
through those critical periods. I know mummy cant bear to let go, she still
wants to continue watching her children grow up.
Mummy took her final breath when I am at the age of 17. Throughout those 9
years, I have never answered to her question what will happen to me, when she
passed on. The writer is crying uncontrollably now. For a mother so strong to
watch us grow up before leaving the family to continue on her next journey, for
everything she went through, it should not be in vain. For bringing up a decent
human being, till we meet again in heaven, I want you to be very proud of your
daughter. A daughter who is capable, successful, optimistic, inspiring and with
the courage to continue on your legacy. Mummy, this is your daughter.
Our mindset and values play a huge role in moulding whom you want to be,
and what you want to be. And my honest opinion, what lessons have my mum
taught me? She has taught me valuable life lessons than one can ever
experience and imagine; my mindset, optimism, courage and the power of
thoughts to brave through different circumstances in life. This is her greatest
gift to me.

It took me a lot of courage and tears to pen all of these down. I have never
thought I will be able to share this part of my story which makes a huge impact
in my life. For years, after mummy left us, I concealed that part of my
childhood like a scar in me. I am thankful that I am able to realign my life
purpose and direction at a whole new level recalling back those moments. I am
who I am today, as I continue to live my life with purpose to inspire others.
In loving Memory
Acknowledgements
To my parents, Eric and Jenny, family, mentors, my team at office, friends and
those people who watch me grow up. Im eternally grateful to all of the love
and support to where I am today.

Vujicics life was a hard one. He was bullied in school and at the age of 10,
tried to drown himself in six inches of water. After his failed attempt at suicide,
he struggled accepting his disability until eventually realizing that he could use
his life to inspire others.
If we cant change the situation we are in, we can make the very best out of it.
If we cant change the problems, we can always change the way we see them.
Life is all about Perspective. Life is all about choices. You can decide how you
want to live the life you want no matter what the circumstances are. Be

Theres nothing wrong with selling sugared water The question is, Is what
you are doing making a difference in someones life or that of many lives?
Whatever you choose to invest your life in, be sure that what you are doing is

Dont waste your time chasing after success, fame or wealth. If yes, are you
genuinely happy? Most of the successful and happy people around spend time
in creating value in the lives of people. The Law of Attraction explains that the
best way to bring fulfilment to yourself is to genuinely have a desire to create
value in the lives of people and constantly giving. Your true worth is
determined by how much you give.
It is not a strategy to in turn get more from the people we serve but it comes
from a deep desire to really want to make a difference in the lives of those
around us. We should look at this as a formula for success, but instead, is a way
of life.

Life is like an echo.. When you send out, it comes back. What you sow, you
reap. What you give, you get. What you see in others, exist in you. So stay
nice, even when others are not.
We will never discover our potential without learning from our failures and
mistakes. Never let your fear holds you back, to do what you want to do. So
what if you fail? Is okay, just try again, you will climb out there stronger each
time at your bottom pit! I will recommend this page if you wish to understand
more on how your mind and subconscious will affect the kind of results in your
life.

It's incredible how a man when almost retire, took massive action at the age of
65 and hence, founded Kentucky Fried Chicken, popularly known as KFC
today. KFC has grown into one of the most profitable franchises around the
world, having more than 17000 outlets around the world with more than $9
billion turnover.
Is never too late or too old to be who you want to be, what you might have
been. Dream, have faith and start taking massive action in your life!
#13: Dont Give Up, You May Be Just Around The Corner
Colonel Sanders at the age of 65, travelled to many states in the US to sell his
idea. He told the restaurant owners that he had a chicken recipe that people
liked and he was giving it to them for free. What he wanted in return was for
the restaurant owners to pay him a small percentage on the pieces of chicken
sold. He was rejected countless times, and on many occasions, laughed at his
attire of white shirt and pants. However, Sanders persevered and did not give
up. He got 1009 rejections before he got his first yes.
With that one success, he continued on to build his empire. Colonel Sanders is
the founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken, popularly known as KFC today.
How many of us will be able to face 1009 rejections? Is not easy and the key to
it is to persevere. You will not know for every no you got, there could be
a yes just around the corner, so dont give up!

Start taking action and do not let fear holds you back. There is a saying, FEAR
stands for False Evidence Appearing Real. I can totally understand the times
when we will give ourselves excuses and procrastinate. But what is more
important to you? Your fear, your hunger for success or is it that big dream that
you have always long for? You will never know what will be the result, until
you start taking some actions today!
Try this!: Can you recall all the opportunities and possibilities that you have
missed just because you didnt take any action back then? Is that lesson
painful? Remember that pain factor and hold it close to you, this pain should be
your motivation to take some serious action in future if you are facing similar
situations.
Rule of thumb: Take the first step, no step is too small, even if is a small baby
step, do it consistently and you will eventually look back and see how far you
have come thus far. ;)

Where in history do you read of Albert Einstein, the slow learner, the class
clown or the rebellious child? We know him simply as Albert Einstein, The
Genius. Where and how long has your talent or genius laid hidden? Have you
believed the words of others or taken to heart your past failures and experience
to decide who you are today? No matter what people think of you, your story is
just a beginning; show it to the world!
What makes a life worth living and worth remembering? Live life to the fullest
and savour every moment while it last. Cherish those around you, have the
courage to love, and dont be afraid to express your love to your dear ones. Till
the time you take your last breath, you will live with no regrets and life to you,
is remarkable and complete. This itself is a legacy.
