Training People to Feel Good

Training People to Feel Good

We know that people are not bad in themselves, they behave badly because they are not getting what they want, they are facing difficulties in their life, and most likely they have negative feelings and bad moods. 

How many times have you come across an uncooperative colleague, unreasonable bosses, demanding customers and people that are impatient on the roads?  Obviously, people are not feeling good.  They don't feel good due to poor health and the above reasons.  When they don't feel good, they cannot be behaving gracefully, be courteous and helpful. They will likely be unreasonable, full of hatred and in a foul mood to do things that they may not normally do. 

Therein lies the importance of feeling good.  One way to make people feel good, even when the situation or environment is bad (like caught in traffic jams and in the middle of a war), is to train people to feel good.  There are many ways that you too can train yourself to feel good, without incurring money or getting too many pleasures.  Today let's look at music.  The psychology of music at here

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...
