Top 12 Ways People Use WeChat Wrongly

Although WeChat has been around for 11 years since 2011, and there are 1.2 billion users worldwide, many people still use WeChat wrongly. The top 12 ways people use WeChat wrongly are:

1. Facebook first, then Instagram, next LinkedIn, if got time then WeChat.

These people treat WeChat like an after-thought. Solution: Link your WeChat to Facebook, then all your WeChat Moments posts will become FB's newsfeeds automatically! To do this you must start posting on WeChat then FB

2. Never join any groupchats at all.

My friend said that he cannot stand the non-stop notifications of the numerous posts in groupchats. Solution: Silence all notifications. Join groupchats to know more people and once you have added them as your WeChat friends, you can exit the groupchats if you don't find them useful

3. Never use Chinese at all

My friend only types in English and he posts everything on WeChat in English. Solution: Use Google translate and try to post in Chinese too. The reason is 80% of WeChat users use only Chinese and if you don't post in English you are missing out a lot of people.

4. Never use 'People Nearby' feature to add new friends.

This is so powerful yet a waste if you don't use it. From here I get clients too

5. Never explore beyond WeChat page.

We know there are 4 main pages on WeChat yet many people did not know the existence of Discover page other than Moments. Solution: Spend more time at Discover page and you will discover great things

6. Never set WeChat ID

They let the system set for you using computer codes. Solution: Go to Me page, click your own name, then set your ID properly

7. Never use Translate function, thus missing out on all the posts

8. Did not know there is such a thing called Favourite,

Favourite can store up to 2 GB of data on WeChat. In fact, I use Favourite to take meeting notes and even record my own seminars! Try it for yourself now

9. Keep on scrolling the screen

Everyone knows it is very frustrating to scroll pages on a tiny handphone. To search for certain information in a chat, use the search function. For Moments search, go to the search button and select 'Moments' in your search. Try to search for 'WeChat Training' under 'information' and you may even find my course!

10. Never organize WeChat contacts

With no organization, you cannot find people as many people use alias or nicknames in WeChat. For me, a simple way to separate the China people from the rest is to use only Chinese names for China people

11. Treat WeChat as their PA

PA is not a personal assistant but persistent advertisements! Your account will be suspended in no time!

12. Never comment and respond to people's posts in Moments and groupchats.

Over time, people think you don't exist and will delete your contact as their contact list reaches the limit of 5,000. Solution: Respond. Related articles on WeChat (click on the title to read)

If Not You, Who Else?

I learnt this very powerful 5-word phrase from Singapore's highest ever box-office movie ever: "Ah Boys to Men II". In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp. Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?" All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow! What a powerful phrase! If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you. This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot

To me, kindness, when practiced as a way of life, becomes a profound philosophy that can shape our interactions with others, the world around us, and even our own well-being. In this article, we will explore the multifaceted aspects of kindness as a way of life, touching on non-violent communication, the limitations of traditional charity, the potential harms of helping, the deliberate cultivation of kindness, and the incredible rewards it brings. 1. Non-Violent Communication Non-violent communication (NVC) is a key component of practicing kindness as a way of life. Developed by Marshall B.

New Age Mobile Numerology

Many people look at 'mobile number change luck' with skepticism, they say, how can just one simple mobile number change create so many changes in a person's life? Also, the mobile numbers are given to us by random by the telcos, how can our fate be assigned by the telcos at random? Besides, isn't it true that our lives and fates are determined by birth and what we do, how can a small mobile number, which is a modern invention, have any effect? How about people in the past without mobile numbers? You mean they don't have a life without mobile numbers, right? One more thing: you cannot just change your mobile number and expect your life to change. If this is so, wouldn't everybody be rich just by changing their mobile numbers? Finally, isn't this kind of fortune-telling thing more of psychology and blind faith than science? If so, how can we trust anything that is not proven and not science? Today let's resolve all these doubts and I welcome your co
