8 Ways to Speak Powerfully

As we know, power is the ability to act. When you behave in a powerful way, people will respect you and do what you say. There are 8 ways that we too can speak in a powerful manner:
1. When You Introduce Yourself, say, "Hi, my name is Andy Ng".  Include your surname will make you sound professional and important
2. When you're asked a question that you don't know how to answer, never say, "I'm sorry I cannot answer your question". Say, "That's exactly the question I'm working to answer". 
3. When people criticises you, instead of acting defensively, thank people sincerely for sharing their opinion with you, whether you agree with them or not
4. When you're asked to do something that you think is difficult, say, "Wow! That sounds challenging"
5. Learn to say no, but say it with gratitude and people will respect you more. For example, when you're asked to sponsor something, say, "Thanks for asking me. My budget is pleasantly full. I'm working hard to ensure that is it not unplesantly full, thank you for your understanding"
6. When people propose you something, ask, "What's next?", "What else?" and "Why not?" even if you want to agree with them
7. Whatever message you want to convey, frame your message as a story.  Be a story teller
8. People like people who are like them. Speak in a way that builds rapport with them. This will make you seem more influential and powerful.

What an Executive Coach and Business Coach Does

The Secret Under the Mattress: Why would a 79-year Man Bet So Big on 4D?

It was 2007 when we discovered his secret. While moving my father’s mattress, we found them: heaps and heaps of Singapore Pools 4D tickets. They were stacked in layers, a paper trail of lost hopes. What shocked us most wasn’t just the volume, but the stakes. He wasn’t betting a few dollars for fun. He was punting hundreds of dollars per draw—nearly ten times a month. At the time, my siblings and I were furious. Our father was a 79-year-old retiree. We wondered, with a mix of anger and confusion, why a man at his stage of life would need to win such "big money." What was he going to do with the money? We saw it as a reckless habit, a sign of poor judgment in his final years.  Some of us would say, "If I were to give him money to buy 4D, why don't I use the money and buy 4D myself?  At least I have better discipline".  It has taken me two decades, and the experience of raising my own three grown-up children, to finally see the truth that was hidden under that matt...

Head Bleeding when the Chair Falls

The Weight of Silence: What Were We Really Arguing About? My earliest memories are punctuated by the sound of shouting. In 1970, when I was barely 6 years old, I stood as a small witness to the fierce quarrels between my father and my late eldest brother Kah Yang (he passed away in 1971 at the age of 17). As I grew up, these contradictions became the soundtrack of our lives, usually centered around our family's shoe shop and clothing stalls in Chinatown. In the court of family opinion, the verdict was almost always the same: my father was "wrong." He was judged as a man who didn't fulfill his role, who wasn't "burdening" enough for the family’s success. But as I look back from the vantage point of 2026, I have to ask: Was that actually true? Let me finally put to rest what my father did right: the truths that were buried under decades of criticism: Unseen Labor: He worked grueling, long hours. I remember him hauling boxes of goods and equipment to set u...
