Some Think that the Coach is God-like

Some people think that a coach has something that they don't know. So they consider the coach to be god-like and create miracles like god.

Truth be told, the coach is an ordinary human being that claims no inspiration from any external power of being. He attributes all his wisdom and realization to human endeavour and human intelligence. Each person has within himself the potential to be a great person, all the coach does is to help each person to achieve par excellence.

This is because the coach understands that each person is his own master and we are all responsible for our own destiny. A good coach encourages and stimulates each person to develop himself and to work out his own emancipation. If the Coach is to be considered a guru or saviour, it is only in the sense that he let us know that we each can be our own guru and saviour.

Whether you are leading a group of companies or a team of people, you know that you the manager and leader play a big role in your organization's success. Unfortunately most managers and leaders are promoted based on their technical skills and they seldom attend any training on leadership and management.

We know that when the manager does not do the right things the following things happen:

Staff are not working at the level as they should be. Targets get missed and the manager has to end up doing all the work to ensure that targets are hit
Staff turnover is low, but the people that resigned are usually the high performers and it is almost impossible to replace such talented employees. New people hired are often way below the staff that left
Working environment becomes more control centric and everyone becomes risk averse. They make no mistake but also no progress
Customers are complaining that the level of service is below that of the past, and this is primarily due to the lack of people working
Investors are always looking at ways to maximise profits by reducing cost. With rentals and staff cost on the rise, that means to employ fewer people to do ever more work. The result is fatigue and a sense of withdrawal

If one or more of the above describe your situation now, you belong to 53.68% of the companies that operate in Singapore.

The solution is not just to work hard, but work smart. This means more skills and do things more skilfully. One of the ways is to coach and mentor people, for people will rise to their potential when you coach and mentor them.

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...
