A “Nothing Much” Trainer?

A “Nothing Much” Trainer?

Trainer for Sales, Leadership, SuperME & Sun Tzu Art of War

“You’re a Nothing Much Trainer.”

When a participant once told me,
“Andy, honestly… I learnt nothing much from your training,”
I smiled.

Most trainers would panic. Some would feel insulted.
But I saw something deeper — because “nothing much” might just be “something big.”

So instead of defending myself, I simply asked,

“Since you said ‘nothing much,’ that means you did learn something.
Would you share it with me — so others can benefit too?”

What happened next changed how I saw training forever.

The Hidden Lessons Beneath “Nothing Much”

That same participant later shared five things that touched my heart —
five lessons he didn’t realise he had absorbed:

1. He discovered himself.
He saw who he really was — a person with fears, hopes, and dreams.
In one session, we made participants cut through a piece of wood using only an A4 paper —
a “SuperME moment” proving that what limits you is never the tool, but your belief.

2. He realised his company isn’t that bad.
After hearing stories from my 25 years of experience training over 13,000 people in 16 countries,
he found gratitude — a key SuperME energy — for what he already had.

3. He saw wisdom in the ordinary.
When I played movie clips like Peaceful Warrior and Entrepreneurs’ Era,
he learned that lessons are everywhere — if you have the eyes to see.

4. He stopped waiting.
In my class, everyone does something they’ve been postponing — right there and then.
As Sun Tzu said, “Do not wait for perfect conditions. Strike while the momentum is yours.”

5. He became a trainer himself.
I always end by asking participants to teach back what they’ve learned —
because when you teach, you transform.
And transformation is the ultimate goal of every SuperME journey.

The Truth About Transformation

At first glance, it looked like he learnt “nothing much.”
But in truth — he learnt the most important things:
self-awareness, gratitude, courage, and the power of action.

And that’s what SuperME is all about — discovering your inner strength.
That’s what Sun Tzu teaches — win without fighting, act with clarity, lead with strategy.

True learning doesn’t always shout.
Sometimes, it whispers.
It happens quietly… but it lasts a lifetime.

Rediscover Your “Something Much”

So, if you’ve ever attended a training that stirred your heart but you couldn’t quite explain why —
that’s SuperME at work.

Join me to experience transformation beyond slides and techniques.
Because in our programs, we don’t just teach — we ignite.

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...
