Hi Folks =)
I recently finish reading Wink And Grow Rich By Roger Hamilton.

Not quite a shopping trip for me, I was just tagging along.
Anyway, this book has so many “dog ears”(folded pages) because I left my highlighter at home.
Lessons I have learned I am going to share it with you here =)
I have summarised my learnings in 20 digestible points.
Here you go…
Dog Ear 1: “Think it, ink it.”
Dog Ear 2: Quality of Communication = Quality of Life
4 Levels of Communication -

(4) Inspire
Dog Ear 3: Choose the level you want to play at.
Dog Ear 4: What you see is always what you get.
Dog Ear 5: Ask and you shall recieve.

Must Read! For You, Your Family, Your Loved Ones… November 18, 2006
Posted by JY Chia in Recommended, Updates.add a comment
Hi Everybody
How are all of you doing?
I feel soO energized today!
I did a thorough reflection of what I have done these few months, adjusted my goals and attached
even more powerful and purposeful values to these goals =)
Anyway, I just finished reading a book:
For One More Day
By Mich Albom, Author of Tuesdays With Morrie
It was quite a reflection of my life, snips and bits of it.
Only that the subject is father for me and mum in the book.
For One More Day, is a reflection of my life and I believe for many others
that we take our closest loved ones for granted.
Our dads, mums, grandparents, aunts, uncles, buddies, spouse….
These people, whom truly loves us such that when we hurt them,
it doesn’t change the love they have for us.
These are truly people, behind us all the time,
they are our punching bags and yet a strong pillar of support.
And we would really feel the heartaches, the pinch in our hearts
when something, unpleasant happens.
Accident, illness, death…..
Because its during these challenging times that we push all the supposedly “priorities”
in our lives to be there for them.
Some of us are lucky, we can make up.
Some of us are just too late….
My dear friends, this book will ignite the subconscious in you…
The subconscious that it’s always there and yet not appearant to us in the daily mad rush.
My dear friends, I like to see that you have wealth and health and LOVE.
And yes it is a challenging game to balance them all.
And we all know we need that balance to enjoy the true blessed life.
We have all heard of stories that some of the wealthiest beings are in fact “poor”.
With no love, with so much in hand, as compared to the poor folk who is surrounded by loved ones, you know where you stand.
I like to quote this from the book….
“But what family isn’t a ghost story?Sharing tales of those we have lost is how we keep from really losing them.”
My dear readers, for “one day spent with someone you love can change everything”.
Get this book, get a couple, a dozen it is a great gift in my opinion, for yourself. And your loved ones.
Best regards!

Find Your Why And Fly! November 15, 2006
Posted by JY Chia in Recommended, Self Development & Training, Updates.1 comment so far
Hi Everybody
Before I talk about today’s post, it has come to my attention that
The Death of Internet Marketing link is not working.
I have rectify the fault and you can gain access HERE!
If you have no clue on what I am talking about, I have got a post about it, so scroll down, read and earn =)
____________________________________
Alright back to today’s topic: Find Your Why And Fly!
This is a book by John Di Lemme.
Who is John Di Lemme?
Brief profile of John: He is a world renowned motivational speaker, author, strategic business coach and mentor to the millionaires.
John Di Lemme’s goal is to assist you in achieving your ultimate WHY.
____________________
He is awesome! Period.
I mentioned that I was on the teleseminar hosted by Stuart interviewing John, in that 1 hour itself, I had 5 pages of notes and it had imprinted on me valuable and impactful lessons of life, my life.
That was evident on my recent post where I talked about a short episode of my life!
Coming back, I have since subcribed to John’s newsletter and have ordered a simple package of his Find Your Why 60 Minutes CD and Find Your Why & Fly Paperback Book!
Just got an email that it has been shipped.
I will show you the looks of it when I get it =)
Anyway before I can read and share the insights of what I have learnt from the audio and the book, I like to share what I have absorbed during the hour of teleseminar with Stuart and John Di Lemme.
3 Key Lessons:
1. Your Birth Date
We all being from the day we were born, this is a very important day, yes to our parents etc. Most importantly, to OURSELVES!
From this special day on, we have been labelled.
Positively and not so positively.
Some of us can see through it and some of the others are just stuck.
Therefore, 23rd April 1987 is a very important and special day to me now.
All I knew in the past 19 years was that, this is a day of cakes, parties and laughters.
Since last Friday, I have a new perspective on 23rd April 1987.
I had reflected upon the 19 years thus far that I have been in existence.
What I have done, what I ought to do, what I have learnt, when did I fall, how did I bounce back etc. Whole list of it.
And it is clear to me now that I know what I have gone through and I have a choice to make adjustments or to keep doing what I have been doing.
I have decided on what I want to do, I am committed to accomplish and I am going to build my life.
Now I like to invite you to take out a piece of paper and a pen and write your birth date large and clear in the middle of the page and start jotting down what has happened to your years of being alive.
Trust me, it is a very powerful process, when the past and memories surfaced one by one, emotions comes in and I like you to tape on those emotions to create positive changes in your life right now.
2. Decision = Results
The decisions that we make will affect our outcome.
How?
What’s missing in the equation now is Actions We Take.
Decision + Actions = Results
This simple equation explains the many happenings in my life.
The decision that I make and the subsequent actions that I take and the results that follows.
3. Put Value
Put value to your dreams
Put value to your why
Period.
When I have value attached to my dreams and to my why, I have experienced tremendous rush of adrenaline and it is sustain within.
______________________________________
It was a great call, and I am not too sure if you could get a recording of it, you can check out Stuart’s site at InternetMarketingSingapore.com
And if you like to get a hand on the book or know
ing more about Find Your Why , head down to Find Your Why!
I hope that you have learn something from this post =)
Till the next post, have a awesome day!

$1 Per Referral November 12, 2006
Posted by JY Chia in Internet Resources, Updates.add a comment
Hi Everybody
Remember I mentioned about The Death of Adsense where you get paid $0.50 for referring people to download the f’ree report?
Today it gets even better…
I got an email from Mike Filsaime that he just released a f’ree report called
The Death of Internet Marketing
And you will be paid $1.00 for each referral!
Mike Filsaime is an established Internet Marketer who has gain reputation for his best selling Butterfly Marketing Script.
This $1.00 per referral is yet another short term Hi & Bye kind of marketing where you can ride on to earn some good cash.
I will admit, like you may be feeling now, that I thought it was some hyped up offer to
get me to join for free and get some offer…
…Turns out I was wrong. Way wrong.
The bottom line is, this report really opened my eyes to what really is the death of
Internet marketing.
The good news is, the report also shows you what you need to know to succeed
in the near future.
The times are changing and I it would be a shame for anyone to not read this report and fail like many will. Get ready for 2007!
I read it, and I wanted to share it with you ASAP.
I recommend you take a break from what ever it is you are doing if you can and get access to this report now.
Consider your future success by going here now…
The Death of Internet Marketing
Have Fun, Earn & Learn!

P.S. Mike says it will only be available for a few weeks at most so do not delay…
Teleseminar: Stuart & John Di Lemme November 10, 2006
Posted by JY Chia in Internet Resources, My Life!, Self Development & Training, Updates.1 comment so far
Hi Everybody
I was just on a teleseminar hosted by Stuart of www.InternetMarketingSingapore.com with John Di Lemme, an international motivation trainer of www.FindYourWhy.com
It was a great call!
Firstly I am so grateful that I am on afternoon today to be on this call and thank you Stuart for arranging this =)
My first encounter with John, if I recall correctly was a few months ago when I watched The Secret.
And man! Hearing him on this call….Find Your Why!
This is something that I have been advocating for, my close buddies will know it.
I have always been finding the Why, what is the purpose of doing this and that?
And I will always share with my pals this driver too.
Why are you doing this? What is it that you want? Who are you doing it for?
And this reminded me when I was 16 and I got to choose between Junior College and Polytechnic.
It was a frustrating moment, because on one hand, I wanted to be in the mainstream, I wanted to be the top 20% of the cohort and I have got my parents and relatives pushing the idea of entering into College and on the other part I knew I have got interest in both Sports and Wellness and Nursing in polytechnic.
Frustrating.Period.
My grades were acceptable to me, close to straight Bs, an A and a C.
Hey! I worked hard.
So first 3 months, I got into Nanyang JC via Volleyball.
I am okay in volleyball and Volleyball is a strong sport in NYJC.
I am really thankful to Mr Tam and the principal then of course.
And so when the O’level results is out, I thought since I am in for 3 months
why not just go through JC education.
As the syllabus sets in coupled with the high expectations from the team,
I was forced to dig out this inner issue within and surface it again.
I took out a piece of paper, and I drew a sign post that read “My Life”
And I divided the paper into 2 columns.
JC on one side and Polytechnic on the other side and started to scribble the
pros and cons of each.
So this is what I have written:
JC
- Mainstream
- Parents happy
- Status quo
- Easy entry to university
- Broadbased knowledge that I do not enjoy studying; I am only keen on
Biology, specifically on Human Biology which is a minor portion.
- Do not really like chemistry, all the formulas and bonds etc. are driving me nuts
- Passion: 3 out of 10
- Volleyball, yes I love the sport and my team mates has been really supportive and I have got understanding coach and teacher in charges. Expectation is there to meet.
Polytechnic
-> Nursing =)
-> Save lives
-> Have got favourite subjects : Human Bio, Psychology, Sociology
-> Passion: 8-10
-> Parents supportive but like me to consider carefully, dad when he was alive then did not really like the idea of me cleaning people’s butt
-> Relatives various opinions
Yes! It was a really tough year being 17. And I suppose due to the intense stress and this conflicting ideas in my head, I fell sick easily and gosh! I skipped school so many times and first time in my life I got to be send to A&E for acute gastritis where I had severe diarrhoea, I can still remember vividly, continuously!running like a tap!
Really scary.
During the period of time, I had so much in my head and I was like,” What the hell am I doing!?” and “What’s the mess in my life!”
And I hang on till midyears examination. Because I was absent from school for so many donkey days and I wasn’t catching up fast with so much on my head.
It is the first time in my life I go into the examination hall, unprepared and blank!
If I recall correctly, I was doing my best to feed chemistry bonds etc. into my head that faithful evening, and I just burst!
“Why am I doing this!”
“I have no passion in this”
“This isn’t the life that I want!”
And for the very first time, I poured out this filled to the brim agony and stress.
My mum listened.
And I am really glad she is so supportive and understanding.
I looked up on the internet, Nanyang Polytechnic’s Website, and school is starting in about a week’s time.
I do not know how I am going to join that batch = my batch.
But I know I am going to do it! I will do whatever it takes!
My mum went down to NYJC with me, and we spoke to my tutor, Mrs Gerda Huang.
She understand my situation and even wrote a recommendation letter for me.
She wrote about me as a class representative etc.
And I am really touched! Thank you Mrs Gerda Huang.
That is also the reason that I would recommend my juniors to consider NYJC should they be choosing the JC route to give NYJC a shot.
Life is stressful for many in JC and all you can ask for are understanding and caring tutors!
Coming back, I wrote the letter of appeal to Nanyang Polytechnic and went down to the school personally.
The administrative officers were telling me to not have high hopes because there are 200 on the waiting list to enroll into Nursing!WOW!And there are 1000 in the cohort.
I can’t recall what was in my mind then but to make sure that this person who is going to give me a green light to be accepted would land his/her hands on my appeal.
So for the next few days, my heart rate escalated as the date comes close to the starting of the new term in polytechnic.
“Ring….Ring….Ring…..” On Friday morning, I was still asleep when the phone rang.
I jumped out of bed and the caller said,” This is XXX calling from NYP, you have been accepted and when will be a good time for you to come down to collect your enrollment package?”
OH MY GOD!
Am I hearing this?!
“I will come down now!”
______________________________
Boom! Eversince, my health is back and I even put on a fair bit of weight and am sheding it off now.
It was a breakthrough few weeks for me and I am proud to say that I have gained my confidence back and am focusing on my goals. On track!
__________________________________
My friends were shocked and my secondary school teachers were shocked too.
Some even commented,” Why didn’t you take me along?”
_________________________________________
I have found my life back and challenges are always here to make us better. And our ideas and passions change overtime too. What we got to do is to adjust, life is a game and let’s set the rules for ourselves and not others!
______________________________________
At this juncture, I like to thank my tutors at NYJC especially Mrs Gerda Huang, my volleyball team mates, coach and teacher in charge, Mr Tam and the principal Mdm Ho for giving me a place in NYJC and in the process I discovered myself.
I have disappointed you Mr Tam and I am ever grateful for your graciousness, care and concern during my stay.
And of course, my great class in NYJC =) 04S1D =) You guys rocks!
And big thanks to my Parents and relatives!
Dad wherever you may be now, please take care of yourself! I did not give you the due respect when you were alive and you have been supportive towards my endeavours all the way till the end.
What a gift to pass my driving on the same date that you did 23 years ago, 26 April. What a coincidence. Take care. Justice will be made!
___________________________________________
What I have learned in addition from John and Stuart today, is to model successful people, and John really drove a point to me.
We all started out on the day when we were born!
We were labelled and some of the labels are correct and some are wrong.
But to me, what’s the criterion of a correct and wrong label? It is YOU who decides!
And the thing is to break away from the false label.
Let’s take a stake in our lives, not our bosses and not the environment!
And now I have got my birth date staring at me right in the face!
23rd April 1987
What have I done for the past 19 years?
What can I do in the future?
How do I want to lead my life?
What difference do I want to make in peoples’ lives?
________________________________________
My dear friends, this has been a really exhaustive sharing. If you have read thus far, I like to thank you! I really appreciate it.
I hope you learn something from it and have a good weekend ahead!
Tomorrow is my dearest buddy, Belinda’s birthday! 11th November 1988, You got to be 18!
Thank you for being here with me and my buddies and family, thank you so much! And to you, my guest, I appreciate you being apart of my life!
Thanks! Everybody!

Winning Isn’t Everything But Wanting To Win Is! November 4, 2006
Posted by JY Chia in Self Development & Training, Updates.add a comment
Hi Everybody
I got this clip from my fellow graduate and it is inspirational =)
Takes only 10 minutes, click here to enjoy!
I have learned 2 important lessons from this short presentation of Johny Wimbrey.
This is a young chap who has been through ups and downs and his life was in a mess that became a message now.
Lesson 1:
Winning isn’t everything but wanting to win is! I want to.
How about you?
It is a must for me, is it for you?
Lesson 2:
When you are pushed into a situation, it wasn’t your fault and you did not ask to be there.
Some of us choose to be victors and some others choose to be victims!
What would you choose to be?
___________________________________________________
Watch the presentation and set your direction!
Have a good week ahead!
