What’s the point?
That’s so common listening others or even ourselves asking ‘what’s the point?’ in our daily life. This question seems to pops-up in any situation. Like, what’s the point of learning french in country that don’t use it? What’s the point of doing works you love but won’t helps you make a fortune? What’s the point of getting the other child while you already have one? What’s the point of this and that. It just comes out so naturally without questioning. And it’s interesting that we do it so naturally without having a second of pause asking ourselves ‘Hey wait a second, why must there be a point?’ What’s the purpose of looking for a ‘point’? Why must we act on behalf of a ‘point’? And can the ‘point’ be found?
It’s like the human’s nature to rationalize things. We loves things to be rationalized as we grown up. We want facts and figures to feel the sense of assurance and righteousness. We are afraid of being wrong. We were being conditioned in the way that wrong is bad, wrong is unacceptable. How true is it? Is being wrong really wrong? Have we realized ‘right’ is actually comes from ‘wrong’? If we’ve never been wrong, we will never know what is right and when is right. So i would say, ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ exist complementarily. They contrasted each other.
So if being wrong is not a bad thing after all, does being right still matters? Nonetheless, being right is still something positive and important. But the premise is don’t struggle hard to keep things right. Allow the chances of making mistakes. Don’t see ‘right’ as an achievement or goal, but see it as a result. View ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ equally, be neutral and don’t judge. When we make things right, we celebrate the success; when we fails, we look for the lesson and experience that life wants us to learn. Be more mercy to flaws, mistakes, and failures. It leads you closer to what you want.
Ms. Mak says, “LIFE is about EXPERIENCING not achieving (destination).
Trust the flow and it’ll leads you to your higher good. Life is neither about the future nor achievement. It’s about experiencing the present. That is also where the ‘point’ lies.”
Yes, the point lies within us. It’s already IN us. So stop searching from the outside! You’ll never find one. Looks inward instead! Remember we are diamond in the rough, the answer that we seek has long exist in us, waiting for us to explore and realize. The answer we need will be easier to retrieve as our consciousness expands. That’s also where the time we are able to differentiate the conditioned-self from the true-authentic-self. It’s crucial to act based on the true-authentic-self but not the conditioned-self. There will only be more misery when we act based on our conditioning. Conditioning is an ideal illusion portrayed and expects by the society. It is normally adverse from who we really are and what we really want.
So thanks to Ms. Mak! We could aware of ‘the point is in us but not anywhere else’ at such young age! Have saved us from wasting time wandering searching for ‘points’! Celebrate the great success that we attracted Ms. Mak into our life!!!
*Applauseeeee* wheeeeeee
Ok, above are what i’ve learned and extended from today’s lesson. Think is the best Valentine’s gift i’ve received
Now let me recap and summarize a little:
1. Stop seeking points from the outside. There’s no point.
2. The point of creation is in the PRESENT. It’s INSIDE us.
3. Expand your consciousness and you’ll be able to differentiate your authentic true-self from the conditioned-self.
4. Don’t look for achievement, look for EXPERIENCE!
5. When you don’t know what you want, then just go with the flow, do whatever you feels like doing it. Then, what you don’t want will become obvious and you’ll be close to what you want by narrowing down the unwanted options.
6. We are the CREATOR of our own life. CREATE and EXPERIENCE, that are the ‘points’ of life!
Last but not least, have a Happy Valentine’s Day!
One Step at A Time, There’s No Need to Rush
Was going to make this post tomorrow, but decided to break the habit!
Today at class we learned about take one step at a time, start with something simple, something really simple.
In my case, I’m always overwhelmed by what I want to do. Every night before I sleep, I would be thinking of what I want to do in my life, and I tell myself I will start doing it tomorrow. But when ‘tomorrow’ comes, I would always have tonnes of excuses to not doing them. For instance, too tired after working for 8 hours, I overused my brain at work, it’s too late now and etc. I almost forgot the most flavoured chapter in You Were Born Rich, The Razor’s Edge. Read more…
Bout what I need and what I want. Bout Clarity.
As Valentine day is in the corner, our previous lesson are all about Love and Relationship. My biggest take-away is Don’t go find the right person; BE the right person! And I’d learn that I have to improve myself to be a better person as in see people as they are, learning to communicate Effectively, Don’t take things personal, total acceptance! If I want a relationship works well and long I have to work on these stuff!
Another two thing I’d learn are – Knowing what you need and do you really want it. I think I can apply this not only in relationship, but life path, career, etc. Here is an example of me not knowing what I need and want.
Lately lot of friend asked me about my study plan, I appreciate their care but honestly I felt quite frustrated and helpless. Not blaming any of them. Friends and family know that my plan are going to Japan for study, yes that’s my plan. When people ask me about what’s my plan I usually will confidently answer : I want to go to Japan for further study! But yesterday, one of my friend asked me something bout studying at Japan… a little bit Deeper. Here is the conversation.
Friend Of My : When are you going to Japan? You’ve told me that since last year!
Me : I… I’m planning, searching for the right Uni/Coll. (Keep explaining why not this Uni, why not that Coll)
F.O.M : But why do you choose Japan? Wait, what course are you choosing?
M : … Music and Photography ( I start to hesitate for I don’t know why)
F.O.M : Why Japan?
M : … … Cause… ( I start thinking why )
Before I could go on with my answer.
F.O.M : You are not even sure why you choose Japan, do you ever thought that maybe you just simply like Japan and wanted to go there for enjoyment?
M : … ( I froze with my mouth open )
Again, before I could talk.
F.O.M : Why don’t you seriously consider other country? You could then go to Japan some other time for enjoyment.
To be honest I was going to nod and agree. But I just simply change the topic. Why did I start to feel fear? Hesitation? Confusion?
After that conversation, I would say my feeling are weird cause atsome point back there I felt clarity, not much. Now I’m in total confuse.
I kept asking myself about what I want, and is Japan really what I need. But non of them come back with an answer. I tried meditation, but my mind is either blank or stuff with nonsense.
Will appreciate your help!
What I want to do in life
Yesterday’s lesson was really fun and inspirational I must say. The topic we discussed was the worry I have been having these days, ‘What I want to do in life’.
Everybody wants to be happy and rich, but how are we going to make it happen? We went deep into the root of what we want in life, exploring ourselves and going into specific details. Read more…
Class 15/1/12
There are differences when you say ‘I know’ and ‘I believe’ . When you say ‘I know’ you literally stops your mind from moving; when you say ‘I believe I’ll…’ you give yourself moral support! We tried that in yesterday’s class. At first, I tell myself ‘I know’ and I felt I’m just saying it knowing I’ll not do it and when I tell myself ‘I believe I’ll…’ I felt this self-confidence within me, somehow knowing I’ll do that!
There are difference in the the word you choose, so beware of it. And that goes the same with sending message to the universe.
When you have that belief in you, you are already half way through your goal. The bridge to your goal is ACTION! To start your action is to do one thing at a time, slowly you’ll get more and more things done in a certain period of time because you already lighten up the one thing that are link to the other thing, when you realize, you already can handle much more thing that you expect.
Later on we did this ‘What I want’ exercise in group of two. So there are the one who question and the one who answer. Everyone has the opportunities to take part in both.
When I’m questioning I feel I’m helping my friends to find for what they truly want, and it felt great in a position of helping! When I’m answering, I first felt hard to answer those question, but later on I felt I have friends that will support me for my dreams!
And then we tell our friends about what we receive from them and re-confirm about it. Seems like our dream came nearer to us by doing that!
Success Formula
Do you know what is the different between I know and I believe? The different is when you say “i know” it’s just mean you know but at the same time you just stop pushing yourself to continue to the next level.Well “i believe”is mean you know and the same time you have a power pushing you to the goal!!
So after you have your mind believe you have to do things one step at a time cause you might be not good at it.So if you keep pushing yourself to do two thing at a time you will not do it perfectly .Example just like a car, if the tire already flat from the first place how can you arrive your goal in a right time.
But before this two idea we still need to be clear what we want before we start our journey.So how do we know what we want ? This is the reason why i start this blog from the beginning. Just follow the question and do it repeatedly 3 or 4 set ,the more you repeat the more you will clear what you want.
*1 what do I want?
*2 what must I do to have it?
*3 how would I feel when I have it?
*4 so what I really want is to feel it……
Believe me this is a really good way to find what you want . I wish i was not too over the top but i think this is the best way of knowing what we want deep down in our heart.
So today what i learn is first to know what you want and next is to believe and last thing is to do it one step at a time.(what you want +believe +do one step at a time=Goal)
You don’t need permission to be happy
I’ve been considering getting a new phone for quite some time. As everyone know, my phone is half-dead with broken keypads. I know having a smartphone is not a must, but in today’s world, it’s quite important to me for the you-know-what reason. Google information you need to know on the spot, checking important e-mails when you’re out, capturing moments using the cameea, GPS for a road idiot like me and etc. I’ve been wanting an iPhone ever since it launched 3 years ago. So now that I’m working and finally could afford one, I asked a friend’s advice on the latest iPhone 4s, as he told me he was going to get the same one.
Out of nowhere, the conversation turned into a lecture. Read more…
Something I learnt, and something I need help on.
I wanted to express something I really need help on.
If we doesn’t have the right money blueprint, it’ll be hard to reach financial freedom, yes or yes? In my case, YES! I doesn’t have the right money blueprint, so if I stay the same I’ll get the same result no matter what I’m on, where I’m at, who I’m with. In other words I have to start changing about this money blueprint programming in me. To change there is only three steps to achieve it, and that three step is
1.Awareness, being aware of how are we’ve been programmed, how does money works in this world ( regarding the topic of money ).
2.Understanding, understand what step we could take, understand why are we been programmed in such way, understand what money stands in our life why is it so important for you, until you find the WHY it’ll be nearly impossible for you to get the HOW.
3.Reconditioning, when you are aware and understand about money, it’s time to wash away your previous programmed mindset and start putting in new mindset. Start taking ACTION!!
What’s left is having total Faith in what you choose!!
There seems a problem in me about Change, I’m still at the situation where I’m not persistent about stuff I started. I realize my work on the 90 day wealth conditioning program are starting to deteriorate. My mind is pulling me back into my comfort zone! My mind is so slick! It trick me in a silent way yet fast! Today I realize I’ve been trick by my mind all the time. I kept recalling about those time I’d been trick by my mind, back then I thought it was me, but now I realize it’s my ego, but I still didn’t take full control about my ego.
There are lots of people out there they fall or hit something real bad in their life that made the biggest change in their life! The bigger the pain the bigger the change. In my case the pain I receive could probably kill me. Whatever I might need to fall onto in order to make me change, is that necessary?! Why can’t I change instead of hitting something??
I know I should start from myself first, but I’m really clueless how should I change about this ‘not being persistence’ problem. Can anyone help me out?
When others are offering help, don’t push them away; when you are all alone, don’t push yourself away.
Hi, I’m back from KL. Although this is my second time I attend MMI I learnt lots of new stuff.
Before I share what I’ve learnt in that event, I would like to share some other stuff that I’d come across.
This couple of month I’d learn that sometimes we have to face problems on our own, you know I used to live the life that rely on others’ decision or opinion, and the results are I did not solve any problem. On the other hand, Sometimes there are problem that we’ll be needing help from others, there is a saying ‘Two is Better than One‘. But to get the balance I know I’ve to start being more Self-Approval to myself. And so, I decide to go to KL and stay by my own, the moment I decided that, the little-evil-voice starts the engine telling me all sorts of stuff like ‘This is so dangerous’, ‘You can’t make it by yourself’, ‘Give up!’ etc. I feel the fear but then I talk back to the inner voice ‘Thanks for sharing, but NOT THIS TIME‘ I smiled to myself and start searching for Budget hotel and transportation. At that time, my brother, uncle, aunt came and help me out, my uncle start to call his KL friends, my brother start searching for more information about the budget hotel, my aunt told me about KL for me to familiarize it. I was so touch and I know this is the time I open my hand and receive their warm helps. That’s not the end, one of my friend know my situation and called me to offer me to share the accommodation with them. I don’t know how in the hell I could thank all of them.
When I reaches KL Puduraya 4:30A.M. I was all alone and everything over there are so unfamiliar, I was in fear facing those foreign workers, my plan was to take the LRT, but it’s not open until 6A.M. and I’m so not going to stay at PuduRaya for two hour, so I decided to take the taxi to get to Wisma M.C.A. I’m glad nothing happen. It’s really a great experience for me.
Before I had this experience I’m kinda eager to step on somewhere unfamiliar by myself, and when that happen I’m filled up with fear. What does this means? Anyone would like to help out and share? =)

Supports are important
I’ll share the MMI event on the next post.
