Why this book Yijing Explained?

 

After my first book “Practical WeChat Marketing 94 Ways” was published in 2020, people asked me when my 2nd book would be. Here it is, a book 3 years in the making: Yijing Explained.

Throughout my 36 years of professional experience, including 24 years in training and coaching since 2001, I have curated a wealth of invaluable materials. However, through my transformative journey of conducting the renowned Sun Zi Art of War training programs since 2009, a profound realization struck me: the essence of all Sinology stems from the ancient wisdom of Yijing.

This epiphany compelled me to embark on an extraordinary mission — to pen a book that encapsulates the essence of Yijing. Its purpose? To empower me in delivering dynamic Yijing training and consulting with unparalleled ease and efficiency. Brace yourself for a game-changing literary masterpiece!

"Yijing Explained" is an easy-to-read guide explaining the ancient Chinese text, Yijing (Hanyu Pinyin of 易经), also known as I-Ching or the Book of Changes. As we know, Yijing has, in the past 6,500 years, been used as a tool for making decisions and achieving success in both personal and professional contexts.

(Many people called Yijing Zhou Yi 周易, because strictly speaking Yijing is about 64 hexagrams whereas Zhou Yi comprises of the 64 hexagrams and the 10 wings of text. For simplicity reason, I will use the term Yijing).

This book delves into the philosophy of Yijing, and explains how its principles can be applied in modern day-to-day situations such as business, finance, personal development and relationships. Written in an easy-to-understand style, this book is a valuable resource for anyone looking to gain insight and guidance from one of the oldest and most revered texts in Chinese culture.

Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or a beginner, this book will give you a new perspective on Yijing and help you achieve your goals. Details of this book, video and how to order are 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...
