Business and Money Tips

Note: This movie is the hottest and no. 1 in 2026 in China, HK, Taiwan, Malaysia etc.  It is not allowed to be screened in Singapore as it is 100% dialect.  The distributor is appealing now.  The movie Dear You 《给阿嬷的情书》became such a massive hit not simply because it is about family love. It touched something much deeper inside modern people: We are becoming more successful, yet we are forgetting how to truly love. When audiences watched the grandmother in Dear You , many were not thinking about the character on screen. They were thinking about their own mother, grandmother, or someone who once quietly loved them without conditions. Suddenly, people realize: The person who used to wait for us to come home… is growing old. And the “someday” we always assumed we had… may not always be there. That is why the movie created such emotional resonance worldwide. It is not really about the storyline. It is about awakening the human heart. And that is exactly what my...

电影《给阿嬷的情书》之所以能够大卖，甚至让很多人在电影院哭到停不下来，不只是因为“亲情”。 而是因为它击中了现代人内心最深的一种痛： 我们越来越成功， 却越来越没有好好爱人。 很多人看到阿嬷，想到的不是电影里的角色， 而是自己的妈妈、奶奶、外婆。 很多人突然发现： 小时候那个一直等你回家的人， 如今已经老了。 而你以为“以后还有时间”， 其实时间正在消失。 这就是为什么这部电影会形成巨大共鸣。 因为它不是在讲剧情， 它是在唤醒人的“心”。 而这，正是《爱的智慧》一直在谈的东西。 《爱的智慧》不是教人浪漫。 它讲的是： 人在关系里，是否还有“感受能力”。 很多人IQ很高，EQ也不错， 但LQ（Love Intelligence 爱的智慧）很低。 什么意思？ 就是： 知道怎么赚钱， 却不知道怎么陪伴。 知道怎么分析， 却不知道怎么理解。 知道怎么讲话， 却不知道怎么让人感受到爱。 《给阿嬷的情书》最厉害的地方， 是它没有讲大道理。 它只是让你看到： 真正重要的人， 往往是那个最容易被忽略的人。 这和《爱的智慧》的3C核心完全一致： Care（关心） 很多时候，爱不是大事，而是小小的在意。 Courage（勇气） 很多人不是没有爱，而是没有勇气表达爱。 Connection（连接） 人真正的幸福，不是拥有多少，而是和谁真正连接。 为什么这种电影在AI时代特别容易爆红？ 因为现代社会越来越“有效率”， 却越来越缺“温度”。 AI可以帮你写信、剪片、分析数据， 但AI无法真正替你陪阿嬷吃一顿饭。 未来最贵的东西， 不是科技， 而是“真实的人味”。 所以《给阿嬷的情书》的爆红，其实在告诉整个社会： 人开始渴望回到“心”的世界。 而《爱的智慧》想做的， 正是帮助人们在这个越来越像机器的时代， 重新学会： 如何去爱、去感受、去连接。 <给阿嬷的情书>还未在新加坡上映

If this is only about “monetizing your voice,” it easily becomes a discussion about techniques. But the real power is not in your voice. It is in who you are. What truly gets monetized is not your voice, but your SuperME. Many people try to earn through speaking. So they learn presentation skills, storytelling, content frameworks. But here’s the problem:  when you don’t know who you are, every skill just makes you sound more like someone else. You may imitate for a while, but you cannot pretend forever. That’s why you see this pattern: some people speak well, yet fade away; others are imperfect, yet grow stronger over time. The difference is simple:  one is performing, the other is becoming. SuperME is not about becoming better. It’s about becoming real. When you live from your SuperME: You don’t need to force persuasion, because your presence already carries weight. You don’t need to package yourself, because your life is already your best content. You do...

The Code That Cannot Be Copied:  The Ghost in the Machine If my father were standing in our Chinatown shop today in May 2026, staring at the glowing smartphone screens that dictate our lives, he would be completely blind to it. A man who couldn’t read or write a syllable of English, he would look at ChatGPT, Gemini, and DeepSeek with a blank, uncomprehending stare. He wouldn't know what an "algorithm" is. The terrifying headline that “AI is coming to replace your son’s 26-year corporate training career” would mean absolutely nothing to him. I can almost hear the tech experts and cynics mocking his simple worldview: "Uncle, the robots can write better articles than you. They can calculate cash flow faster than your wife. What can your son do that a machine can't?" My father wouldn't panic. He wouldn't offer a grand tech strategy or a five-year pivot plan, he never gave me career advice. Instead, he would slowly wipe the sweat from his brow with the b...

Let me start with a difficult question. What if AI is not replacing jobs… but replacing people who behave like machines? Think about it. Today AI can: write reports generate PowerPoint slides answer emails create music do customer service analyze legal documents even generate videos and code And every few months, it becomes smarter. Many people are afraid. Harvard Students are afraid. Government and MNC Executives are afraid. Even trainers, consultants, accountants, and managers are afraid. But perhaps we are asking the wrong question. The real question is not: “What can AI do?” The real question is: “What makes a human being truly human?” That is the heart of this sharing. A few months ago, I saw something disturbing. A company proudly announced: “With AI, we reduced our manpower significantly.” Everyone clapped. Higher productivity. Lower costs. Faster output. But later I asked one of the staff privately: “How do you feel?” And she said...

AI Replacing Jobs Is Also a Karma Question Most people think AI replacing jobs is only a technology problem. Actually, it is also a karma problem. Why? Because karma is not just about religion. Karma is about causes, conditions, and consequences. For many years, human beings created a world obsessed with: speed over meaning efficiency over humanity profit over relationships automation over understanding Now AI has become the natural consequence of those choices. If a company values only efficiency, then eventually humans become inefficient. If work is treated only as repetitive output, then machines will naturally replace repetitive humans. In a strange way, AI is not replacing humanity. AI is replacing work that already became less human. That is karma. For decades, many organizations unknowingly trained people to behave like machines: follow SOP blindly do not question suppress emotions repeat processes prioritize output over wisdom Then suddenl...

Karma Is Not Punishment — It Is Completion Most people think karma means: “Do bad things, bad things happen to you.” But karma is far deeper than reward and punishment. Karma is the invisible completion of intention, action, and consequence. Every karma requires four conditions: The object The intention The action The completion A lie is not merely words. First, there must be a target. Then a hidden motive. Then the action of speaking or behaving. Finally, the other person believes it. Only then is the karma completed. That is frightening — not because karma is cruel, but because life records not only what we do, but why we do it. A smiling face can carry poison. A harsh sentence can carry compassion. That is why karma is not always obvious. Some people appear kind, yet manipulate others emotionally. Some people speak sharply, yet are trying sincerely to protect others. Outward behavior alone is incomplete. Karma looks deeper: What was your intention? What ...

AI Is Not Just Replacing Jobs. It Is Replacing Mechanical Humans. For years, companies trained people to: follow instructions,  repeat processes,  suppress emotions prioritize efficiency over humanity Now AI can do many of these faster, cheaper, and without complaints. So the real question is not: “Will AI replace humans?” The real question is: “What makes humans irreplaceable?” AI can generate reports, write content, analyze data. AI can even imitate emotions. But AI still cannot truly: care,  build deep trust,  show genuine courage create meaningful human connection,  calm fear under pressure inspire people from the heart That is why Love Intelligence (LQ) matters. In the AI era, technical skills alone may no longer protect your career. Your real advantage may come from: trustworthiness,  emotional stability,  human connection judgement,  authenticity,  the ability to work with people, not just information The future may not belong to ...

When the news settled that my 12-point miracle had secured my place at National Junior College, a profound shift took place inside our cramped Chinatown stall . For the first time, I saw a new look in my father’s eyes: a quiet, burning realization that our family could actually do it. We were no longer just surviving the concrete pavements of Trengannu and Pagoda Streets; we were stepping into a future we had never been allowed to dream of . Two years later, when I told him I was applying for the School of Accountancy at the National University of Singapore (NUS), his elation was boundless. To understand his joy, you have to understand the context of the era. NUS Accountancy carried exceptionally high admission standards. For a traditional man whose own primary education was ripped away by World War II, this wasn't just a certificate, it was the ultimate, crowning validation of his entire life’s suffering. But the celebration was short-lived. When I broke the news that I wouldn...

The Silence that is so Loud Now People often ask me about the milestones of my youth. They ask about the pivotal moments of my 26-year career in corporate training or the academic paths that led to my MBA. They want to know: "What profound words of encouragement did your father give you during those crucial turning points? What career advice did he pass down when you were starting out? What relationship wisdom did he share?" My answer is always a flat, arresting truth: None. Throughout the 44 years I shared this earth with my father, he never gave me a single verbal pep talk. He never sat me down to map out my future or tell me he was proud of my trajectory. But there is a beautiful, flipped side to that coin: neither did he ever place a single ounce of pressure on my shoulders. Instead of listening to his words, I spent four decades watching his life. I watched the tireless rhythm of his hands as he repaired shoes in the heat of the day . I watched the raw injustice of how h...
