First 3 Scrolls from Ancient Syria

The first 3 scrolls from "The Greatest Salesman in the World" book by Og Mandino
Scroll Number 1: Today I Shall Begin a New Life
  1. Failure is man’s inability to reach his goals in life, whatever they may be
  2. The difference between those who fail and those who succeed lies in their habits
  3. I shall form good habits and become their slave
  4. An act becomes easy through constant repetition
Scroll number 2: I will Greet this day with Love in my heart
  1. I will remain no more a peddler in the marketplace
  2. My reasoning they may counter; my speech they may distrust; my apparel they may disapprove; my face they may reject; and even my bargains they may suspect; yet my love will melt all hearts
  3. Love is my weapon to open the hearts of men, love is also my shield
  4. When I confront each whom I meet, I address him and say in silence and to myself, “I love you”
  5. Most of all, I will love myself and love all mankind
  6. With love I will increase my sales a hundredfold and become a great salesman
Scroll number 3: I will persist until I succeed
  1. I am a Lion and I refuse to talk, walk or sleep with the sheep
  2. Always I will take another step. Because the prizes of life are at the end of each journey, not the beginning
  3. I will remove from my vocal such words as quit, cannot, impossible, unworkable, hopeless and failure
  4. I will ignore the obstacles at my feet and keep mine eyes on the goals above my head
  5. Each failure to sell will increase my chance for success at the next attempt
  6. Each obstacle I will consider as a mere detour to my goal and a challenge to my profession
  7. I will persist. I will win

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...

Have You Found Your Sun Yi and Teresa Teng?

I n the long, unfolding history of the Chinese-language music scene, "The Moon Represents My Heart" 月亮代表我的心 stands as an unsurpassable milestone. Yet, the journey of this globally renowned masterpiece, a song that would eventually captivate the world, was fraught with setbacks: it was once dismissed as "trash" by its own creator and tossed into a wastebasket, later suppressed by official policy as a "banned song ," and initially failed to gain any traction when performed by two different singers. The dramatic turnaround in this song’s fate is not merely a musical legend; it offers a profound life lesson: the greatest stroke of luck in life is not about how perfect you are, but about encountering the "right people", those who truly understand you, support you, and help you realize your potential, at exactly the right moment. I. The First "Right Person": A "Talent Scout" Who Recognizes Your Worth In the early 1970s, composer T...
