It's Not That they Don't Believe You, It's that they are a Small-Me

When someone refuses to believe something—even when it is verifiable, logical, or obvious—it often has less to do with facts and more to do with their inner state.

Why Small-Me Resists Truth

The Small-Me operates from:

Fear of being wrong
Fear of losing control or certainty
Fear of looking foolish
Habitual skepticism rooted in past disappointments

In this state, even truth can feel threatening.
Not because it’s untrue, but because it challenges the safety of what the Small-Me has built its identity on.

How Being a SuperME Changes That

When you shift from Small-Me to SuperME, everything changes—not because the world changes, but because you’re no longer viewing truth through a lens of fear.

Here’s how SuperME helps:

1. Purpose Grounds You in Openness

When you live with purpose, you no longer need to defend your ego.
You seek alignment, not dominance.
So when someone shares truth with you, your first reaction becomes:

“Let me understand…”
Not: “Let me resist.”

2. Love Creates Space for Humility

Love—especially self-love—gives you the strength to say:

“I didn’t know that. Thank you.”
Small-Me thinks being wrong is failure.
SuperME knows that being wrong is growth.

3. Gratitude Shifts the Narrative

Gratitude says:

“Thank you for bringing this to me. Even if I can’t fully accept it now, I appreciate the light you’re offering.”

This mindset removes defensiveness and invites inner spaciousness.

Final Reflection

So yes—when someone says, “I just don’t believe what you say,”
despite clear evidence, what they might really mean is:

“I’m not yet ready to expand into the version of me who can receive this truth.”

And that’s okay. Because SuperME doesn’t shame the Small-Me.
It gently invites it to rise.

So the next time you're met with resistance, ask:

Am I speaking to their logic? Or to their wound?

And if it’s the latter…
Offer Purpose.
Extend Love.
Practice Gratitude.

And let the truth do its quiet work.

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...
