Parent

As a parent, the child looks up to me. I have the biggest influence on him. He tries to copy everything I do. If I want him to have good health, relationship, positive mental altitude and abundance finance, I will need to set up a good example for him. I will watch what I eat and my exercise. I will spend time with him. I will read my mission statement twice a day. I will increase our finance. I will set up a good example.

The world is round

The world is round
It offers you the opportunities to reach the destination

The world is round
If one route is long, find a shorter route to reach the destination

The world is round
If you have the passion and use your talent appropriately, you’ll find a way to reach your destiny.

Wisdom from Charlie Munger

If you want to be miserable please follow the following 4 rules.

First, be unreliable. Do not faithfully do what you have engaged to do. If you will only master this one habit, you will more than counterbalance the combined effect of all your virtues, howsoever great. If you like being distrusted and excluded from the best human contribution and company, this prescription is for you. Master this one habit, and you will always play the role of the hare in the fable, except that instead of being outrun by one fine turtle, you will be outrun by hordes and hordes of mediocre turtles and even some mediocre turtles on crutches.

My second prescription for misery is to learn everything you possibly can from your own experience, minimizing what you learn vicariously from the good and bad experience of others, living and dead. This prescription is a sure-shot producer of misery and second-rate achievement. The other aspect of avoiding vicarious wisdom is the rule for not learning from the best work done before yours. The prescription is to become as non-educated as you reasonably can.

My third prescription to you for misery is to go down and stay down when you get your first, second or third severe reverse in the battle of life. Because there is so much adversity out there, even for the lucky and wise, this will guarantee that, in due course, you will be permanently mired in misery. Ignore at all cost the lesson contained in the accurate epitaph written for himself by Epictetus: "Here lie Epictetus, a slave, maimed in body, the ultimate in poverty, and favored by the gods."

My final prescription to you for a life of fuzzy thinking and infelicity is to ignore a story they told me when I was very young about a rustic who said, "I wish I knew where I was going to die, and then I'd never go there."

Good son

I am a good son
I am a good son
I am a good son
I provide time, money, positive mental altitude and health to my parents.

baseball

Tad Williams is the only baseball player who had a .400 single -season hitting record in the last seven decades. In the Science of Hitting, he explained his technique. He divided the strike zone into seventy-seven cells, each representing the size of a baseball. He would insist on swinging only at balls in his 'best' cells, even at the risk of striking out, because reaching for the 'worst spots would seriously reduce his chances of success.

This technique apply to our life as well. In life, I tend to have the tendency to swing at a lot of balls. I believe that once I identify my passion and talents, I'll swing at the ball with all might power. It's crucial.


Home run

I wait
I wait
I wait
I hit the ball with all I got.

The outcome is
Infinite amount of time with love ones

On this earth

I am here to march toward my destiny. (drum rolling)
I am here to give my talents to others. (provide value to others)
I am here for my love ones. (provide value to my family)

Every day and every moment,
I ask myself how I can use my interest and talent to help 1 thousand, 1 million and 1 billion people
I ask myself how I can a billion dollars and contribute to Bill Gates foundation

One day,
I will stand on the mountain top, look down at Golden Gate Bridge with tears in my eyes and says, I have fulfilled my mission. I give thanks to the the infinite one above.

This day is coming soon.

Behind the communication

Have you realized that the action sometimes are different from the talk?

My father has always recommended us to have a stable job and have a stable life. He on the other hand always go for the adventures including move to 2 different countries in his life time. It seems that his action and his talk are 2 completely different story.

Recently, I read the book, frogs into princes. I realize that action belongs to the subconscious territory while talk sometimes belong to the conscious territory. My wife was joking that both my sister and I are influenced by his talk rather than by his action. Oh, my wife wasn't kidding about it.

As I grow older, I realize that if I ever want to give back to my parents. I better observe their need based on the action so I can give back with full confidence that I give my best shot.

The funny thing is that I always thought that it's weird that my father isn't consistent between his talking and his action. I always thought that everyone should be consistent between their talking and their action. I was wrong because I wasn't consistent myself, too.

Why do I say that? My wife ask me that if our child grow up and he wants to go a career that it's easy to get a job such as art, what will I do? I told her that as long as the child shows the talent and I would agree with it. When I look back at my history, I sometimes just do it without knowing whether I have the talents for it. I have to admit that my talking and my action sometimes are different.

In Anthony Robbin's tape, he mentioned that it's better to be congruent between the talk and the action. I totally agree. He believe that it gives power to yourself. I want to gain these powers to I can provide immense value to my parents, my wife and my child.

It's an efficient use of the money and I am really glad that I do this.

Any response is a good response when it's utilized, and it's the next step in the process of change.

The response includes human emotion, disappointment, anger and frustration.
The response includes health and financial wealth.
