Refer to yesterday's blog post, in creating wealth,
The Number Two (2), according to my friend, is Owning A Business.
I prefer the Number Two (2). I said "Yes, you are correct !!! being in business, is the way to create wealth."
"Who are the Richest People in the world today?" he said.
People out there become rich by doing business. They are owning a business.
That driver who came out of that Mercedes, what does he do for a living? You ask yourself.
Perhaps, he comes from a Rich Family, or perhaps he is in Business. If you make a simple observation and look around us, we could see that most Rich and Wealthy People are in business.
Business is a wide topic.
The best business to venture into is MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) or some named it, Network Marketing.

Good day to all.
My friend shared with me something about creating wealth, today.
There are TWO (2) ways, you can create wealth, according to him.
Let's talk about ONE (1) for today, alright?
Number One, is Inheritance, he said.
The word Inheritance, the first thing that pops up in my mind is, it simply means you inherit your family's wealth.
As the saying goes : Born with a silver spoon in your mouth.
I think most of us, especially those who struggle in life, wish to be born in a Rich Family. This topic is sensitive, but I have got to talk about it.
This is not in your control. This scenario is not within our control. Not in your control & definitely not in mine. Not many of us are born in a Rich Family. Perhaps, our ancestors are pretty Rich back then, but when it passes down to the next generation and the next, and the next, and finally, when it comes to our generation, we got nothing. Alright, this is a bad example to describe.
If you are born in a Rich and Well To Do Family, then that is PURE luck. Everything goes smoothly in life. No worries about money. Everything you ever wanted could be yours in an effortless manner.
You are able to study abroad in one of the top University, choose your dream house, driving that Nissan Skyline to your biology class, and so much more. The wants in life actually endless, because you have the means.
If you are born in a Rich family, then you are Rich. You can become poor too, if you don't manage properly. Sounds like I am jealous, huh?
Well, if you look on the other side.
If you are not born with a silver spoon, and you come from a poor family and earn your success through hard work, you can really feel the meaning of true success! the satisfaction of being successful.
Then, there are also many people out there, who came from rags to riches. How do they do it? This is what we call PURE hard work.
The following blog post will be the continuation related to wealth, the Number Two (2).

Hello,
Good day to all.
We always said : " Good night, sweet dreams "
Dream sweet dreams when you sleep.
Just curious and wanting to know – "Have you ever seen your child, no matter how young they are, keeping quiet or still, sometimes during the day?"
They maybe sitting on the floor, holding a pencil with their homework on a table, in the living room, but their mind wandering all over.
Heii, do you homework, stop dreaming!!! you shouted at them. Your child dreaming stops, and he start to continue with his/her homework.
They are actually day dreaming. Their body is here, but their mind is not. Please don't stop your child dreaming.
Most of us, or in fact, ALL of us have DREAMS. Our Dreams are nice, beautiful, perfect, wonderful, creative, and all positive.
Our dreams makes us alive! and drive us towards achieving them! All of us want to live up to our dreams! Some of us are living their dreams right now, and for some not yet.
As we grow year after year, many things change, and our dreams gets smaller and smaller, or further and further from us.
Why?
Perhaps, we have not accomplish what we have planned. These people give up to soon. They get discouraged.
Some may say, let's not have dreams. Without dreams, we don't get discourage or demotivated. Life would be much easier. Never, never, never ever think this way.
People who don't have dreams are not living their life, they are merely existing in this world, they are just another living thing. We live our life once, make it great!
Dreams are like building castle,the castle is in the air, you make your way or route towards the castle. Set your dreams and find ways to go after it!
Dreams and make your dreams come true.

Hello everyone, it has been a while.
I like to wish everyone a Very Happy New Year 2011 !
HOPE : -
Hope is something you look forward to, something good you what in your life.
You do something, you work on something for the hope of a better lifestyle, a better well being, a happier family in your life, etc…
There are also, some who doesn't do anything, but only have the feeling of hope for a good life. At least, they have hope!,which is better that those who lose hope in life.
In life, you try, you make an attempt, you take the effort hoping for an outcome/ positive results.
I took my friend's advice, so called her attitude towards life, that is – in Malay Language mixed with English " Ada Try, Ada Harap " and I heard she said it everyday. I like the way she put it ! " Ada Try, Ada Harap"
In English " If you try, there is hope. " and " If you don't try, there is no hope. " at all !!!
Perhaps, it's because she is a salesperson and in sales, one must try, in order to see the outcome, whether it's positive or negative. One must try / make the attempt to close the sales, always.
In life, also in your adventure in MLM business, you do MLM because you have hope. If you fail, Never lose hope. Try and try again. If you fail again, try again.
A short topic about " HOPE " and it is simple, just say it everyday : " Ada Try, Ada Harap "

Everyone need a praise from time to time.
An expression of praise given to someone, will make that someone felt being appreciated and make them wanting to do the act again. It motivates them.
When your child did something like throwing rubbish in the dustbin, and you praise them, they will feel nice.
Praise someone privately or even better if you can do it publicly, will make them feel nice, make you feel nice also.
Observe and listen carefully during conversation and when you notice something good about someone, praise them, and do it sincerely.
Try it to someone and you will love it.

From yesterday's topic on Tee-Up ABC, sitting position in a presentation is also important.
Please make sure your C, (Customer) is sitting facing a wall or facing something that doesn't distract him/her while your upline is doing the business presentation. If your C is sitting in a coffee shop facing the door where all the walk-in customers come in, then you and your upline will be having a hard time getting your C to concentrate on the presentation. Your C will keep on looking at the customers passing by and not looking at the business presentation.
In order to do this, you (B) and your upline (A) will have to come early to the place, so both of you could sit facing the crowd and not your potential (C). Punctuality and preparation is important.
Sitting upright and paying attention to the presentation of your upline to show that you are serious about the business.
Listen attentively and nod once in a while after interesting points made by upline are important to show a good example so that your (C) will do the same.

Tee-Up
How are you going to hit a ball into a hole in a game of golf? Hole in one.
Can u give a first hit of high ball if a golf ball is placed on a grass?
You have to put a “tee-up”, that plastic thing poke into ground, giving a raise to the golf ball enable you to hit a high ball and give it a distance.
So what is ABC? Some named it as ABP.
This ABC method not only applies to MLM, it applies to other business transaction and in relationships or where it deems fit. One of the first few companies, which is a Single Level Marketing (SLM) implementing this method is Tupperware.
When you are doing your MLM business for the first time, you need help from your upline. Your upline will show you how to do a presentation to your prospect.
This is where the ABC comes in.
When you are a MLM distributor, you are a B, stands for Bridge. You are the one who do the bridge or introduce your prospect to your upline. You have your role to play. Each time your upline made a point in his/her speech, you nod a little, to show agreement.
B sets up appointments for the presentation. B also initiate the closing of the presentation / sales by giving a pen and an application form to the C, stands for Customer.
Body Language plays a huge role here. You can view a person reaction from the Appearance / Outer Look / Facial Expression.
to be continued…
