How to Wake People Up


US Coach Dan Millman was the 1966 Olympics gold medal winner for gymnastics.  He went through many ups and downs in his life, including breaking his leg and two near-death accidents. Since 1980, Dan dedicated his life to inspire others based on what he learned from gurus from China and India

Dan wrote 9 books, including the best-seller, "Way of the Peaceful Warrior" in 1985. This book has since been turned into a movie called "Peaceful Warrior" (2005). 

In the movie "Peaceful Warrior", Dan Millman said that most people live their entire lives without being awake. We thus need to 'wake people up' if we want to help people break free from their own self-limiting beliefs and get closer to their potential. 

This course, which we have been conducting since 2008, was based on the strategies and tactics in Dan's work. It answers many questions that people face at work: how to motivate people other than money, how to persevere in trying times and how to make everyone strongly and united. 

This course is for people looking for permanent solutions to daily work challenges.  It is NOT  for people looking for a quick but ineffective fix. Come if you too want to Wake People Up!

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...
