Shake Your Head to Success: Say No to these 5 things and You'll Achieve Massive Success

You've heard of Handshake to Success, but have you heard of "Headshake" to Success?
In this rapid world of instant connectivity, we have to say No instead of yes if we too want to be successful. There are 5 things that we must say No to:
  1. Say No to Procrastination. Just do it now, and better still, do it yesterday. Napoleon Hill in his latest book "Outwitting the Devil" revealed that procrastination is the number one killer to success in this world. It doesn't matter that what you are not perfect, all it matters is that you start first and the rest will follow.
  2. Say No to Follow the Market. Steve Jobs did not follow the market, he created the market. He also spoilt the market by giving customers more than what they asked for: instead of just a phone, he gave them an MP3, Video Player, Mini Computer, Camera, Video Camera and Photo Editor. 
  3. Say No to Dreaming. Dreaming is having dreams with no timeline and action plan, a dream is a dream with timeline and action plan. 
  4. Say No to 'I Know'.  We know that what we know bring us to where we are right now, what we don't know will stop us from going forward. It's okay to not know, but it's not okay to say 'I know' and stop learning.  In fact, once you say 'I know', your mind automatically shuts off and you will stop absorbing. In this modern world, it is not the fast fish eat the slow fish or the big fish eat the small fish, but the know eat the don't-know.  The fastest way to say no to 'I Know' is to, learn, un-learn and re-learn what you already knew.  You'll be pleasantly surprised that your knowledge will expand rapidly once you stop saying 'I know'.  
  5. Say No to Keeping Knowledge to Yourself. Spread knowledge is the biggest charity that you can do, for knowledge creates wealth and lift people out of poverty. Thomas Edison was poor but he became rich when he gained knowledge from people that so willingly shared to him.  So spread this blog to all your friends as the more you spread, the more you learn. Remember, what goes around comes around.

Kindness as a Way of Life: How Kindness can Reward You 6 Times Over

Kindness as a Way of Life by Andy Ng Kindness is a universal language that transcends cultural boundaries, enriches human connections, and has the power to transform lives. It goes beyond mere acts of charity or random good deeds. 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. Rosenberg, NVC emphasizes empathetic communication that seeks to understand and connect with others on a deeper level. It encourages active listening, empath

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

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
