Love Intelligence: The Skill for an Unshakeable Life

Everyone is talking about AI.

People fear losing jobs, losing relevance, losing their edge.
But let me tell you something:
The greatest risk today is not AI.
The greatest risk is a human heart that forgets how to love.

Because when love dies,
energy drops,
creativity disappears,
and life becomes mechanical.

Not long ago, someone asked me,
“Andy, why do your students keep returning to your classes even after 20 years?”

My answer shocked them.
They don’t come for the content.
They come for connection.
They come to feel seen.
They come to feel loved.

Adults are not hungry for information.
They are hungry for inspiration, courage and hope.
And only love can deliver that.

Let me give you the core of Love Intelligence.

1. Care — See people, not just problems.
When you show genuine care, people trust you. I conduct lessons even when the attendance falls below the minimum attendance, and I hardly make money from it.

2. Courage — Say the truth with kindness.
Courage creates breakthroughs. I speak my mind, I don't follow the crowd. For example, years ago when everyone said it's good to invest in property in China, I cautioned them.

3. Connection — Build warmth and safety.
Connection opens the heart, and the heart opens the mind. I connect myself to the latest trends, and ask the audience at the beginning of the class what are the top 1 or 2 things that are keeping them awake at night. Before the class, ends, I ask what are the top 1 or 2 inspiraitons that they get from the class.

Love Intelligence is not soft.
It is the strongest force in human performance.
When you lead with it, people open up, step up, and grow up.

Today, I ask you to do one simple thing:
Before you speak, decide to love.
Before you judge, decide to understand.
Before you doubt yourself, decide to support yourself.

If you do this for seven days,
your relationships will change,
your energy will rise,
and your future will open.

This is Love Intelligence.
And this is the power AI will never have.

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...
