Entrepreneurship Is in My Blood

Yes, I’ve lived entrepreneurship long before I ever taught it 

Entrepreneurship Is in My Blood

Some people are surprised when I tell them I was teaching Entrepreneurship more than 20 years ago.
But in truth, entrepreneurship has been in my blood since I was a child.

I grew up in Chinatown, in a hawker family that sold clothes, socks and towels.
From a young age, I was serving customers, arranging displays, and yes — closing sales.
We tried everything: new products, bundle deals, even creative pitches.
Looking back, I realize — I was already doing business, not just helping one.

That early experience taught me something powerful:
Entrepreneurship is not about making money. It’s about adding value.

Money is the result.
Value is the cause.

Anyone can make a transaction,
but only an entrepreneur creates transformation —
by serving, by solving, by seeing what others don’t.

Even as a Chartered Accountant later in life, I understood:
you can’t “audit” your way to value — you must create it.

Now, at 62, I’ve come full circle.
With SuperME, I’ve discovered a new way to express that entrepreneurial spirit —
through Purpose, Love, and Gratitude.

When you live as your SuperME,
you become a natural entrepreneur —
because you stop working for money,
and start working from meaning.  (SuperMe at https://asiatrainers.org/smubook)

That’s why I’m now building new ventures around SuperME —
not just to grow businesses,
but to grow people.

Because entrepreneurship, at its core,
is the art of turning your purpose into value for the world.

If Not You, Who Else?

I learnt this very powerful 5-word phrase from Singapore's highest ever box-office movie ever: "Ah Boys to Men II". In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp.  Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?"  All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot...

How I Became a Fortune Teller: Leveraging NLP, Fear and Greed, and Motivational Theories

Becoming a fortune teller wasn’t part of my childhood dreams. It started as an experiment, fueled by my curiosity about human behavior and the subtle forces that drive our decisions. Over time, what began as a study of psychology and human interaction evolved into an unexpected career—one where I use the tools of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), the primal drivers of fear and greed, and motivational theories to help people uncover their paths. The First Step: Understanding the Human Psyche I was always fascinated by why people do what they do. During my university years, I studied psychology, particularly the works of Abraham Maslow, B.F. Skinner, and Victor Vroom. Their theories provided insights into motivation, reinforcement, and decision-making. But I wanted to move beyond the academic realm and see how these theories worked in real life. Around this time, I discovered NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). This framework for understanding communication and behavior is based on the...
