~45~ It Has Been A Year

Great job, Prisca. Life goes on. Journey continue.

It is http://www.priscaooi.blogspot.com/ one year old birthday.

~43~ Dream HOME

• Now, I know my DREAM HOME. Looking at my vision board or DREAM board, my home is full of SPACE, sunshine and blue sky, clean air and blossoms of flowers, space for me, family and friends, lovely and handful kitchen, simple wardrobe and storage, bedrooms and bathrooms, no main gate, no clock, no TV, no newspaper either. Simple yet basic life that back to nature, next to the riverside and jungle walk. So far, I could not find any place like this in KL yet. After looking at the photos posted by KL Fong and Sara in facebook, it inspires me to build my own HOME. Most photos are download from SekSan at their Serendah project.
• It is just NICE for me, my SWEET HOME and a PERFECT fit.
• Now, I am enroll and attract to my dream home and will look forward to invest on a piece of land that near to the riverside and jungle walk. I am creating the path for my Sweet Home.

~42~ My AYURVEDA

• On March, I have decided to go for a thorough body "DETOX". In fact, everybody detox everyday through skin, kidney, liver etc... I have heard of the Ayurveda method by Madam Hsiang long way back in June 2005, somehow, I have put all these toughs aside until this year. The first person whom have shared with me is Yen Lu from Landmark Forum. Followed by Cindy Kwek, my lawyer. They are sharing from the same source, and I am so curious of their appearance - their skin complexion, they looks lighter and brighter, greater energy, bigger cheers and smile. It was a BIG WOW for me. I decided to dial the number and make an effort to listen on Madam Hsiang sharing in her place at Taman Seputeh.
• The talk was scheduled on 16th Mac 2008, Sun 2pm. She shared her experiences on choices of food - The "LEFT OVER". There are plenty of misleading nutritious food advertisements that convince us to buy "left over" food. Those food are having the same criteria - looks great from the packaging, the labels and explanations, however the body could have work extremely HARD to digest them. Madam shared her wisdom in choosing the "good food" for the body, distinguish them from my REALITY. I went home with doubts and empty hands.
• Next day, 17th March, Mon. I decided to call Madam and pick up some ingredients from her house. It cost me less than RM200 (including D.I Y. Enema bag and coffee). I have also decided to do the body cleansing on that night itself.
  
• Step 1, Day 1. - Intestine cleansing (I have no intention to take the photos, it was all the black and dam smelly BooBoo, for first day alone, I went to toilet for eight times. I have heavy headache by dealing with my dramas due to no caffeine intake. Lots of releasing on mind and emotions for past events and incongruency. I was surprised that it stir the emotions this way)
• Step 2, Day 2 & 3 - De-worms
• Step 3, Day 4 - Liver cleansing with DIY Enema
• Step 4, 1 month later - 2nd Liver cleansing
• Step 5, 2 months later - 3rd Liver cleansing, keep it up until the 5th cleansing. (I am on my way to the 4th one)
• After toilets, replenish with vegetables soup, drink plenty of warm water, coconut water, eat raw sugar and raw salt, "good food" every meals.
• Today, results shown in every parts of my body. Friends and family members around me asked a lot about the changes, especially the skin complexion and my body size. Now, I feel this is the RIGHT time to share the SECRET rather than just smiling and acknowledge the truth.
• I was so excited to see what is OUT from my body, I kept camera ready all the time to capture the moment of TRUTH. However, my hubby said it was disgusting. I told him that he have not see what is in his body yet and it is too early to judge this way. Well, well, look forward to see what is in his body. Looking forward to his turn then.
• It was an amazing journey to BODY transformation. I feel GREAT and AWESOME. Gratitude thanks to Madam Hsiang and her family, friends that share the goodies of mind and body works.

~39~ Here In My HOME

Today, I went to my facebook account and check on the news. And I found this video clip. I love it very much and I am proud of Malaysian. I love Malaysia !!! We had VOTED for change and will see the progress of change.

Will look forward for the brigthness of the future, and make it for the colorful country. Every journey has a beginning. CHEERS to Malaysian !!!

~38~ MAYA Angelou

In April, Maya Angelou was interviewed by Oprah on her 70+ birthday. Oprah asked her what she thought of growing older. And, there on television, she said it was 'exciting.' Regarding body changes, she said there were many, occurring every day ... like her breasts. They seem to be in a race to see which will reach her waist, first.

The audience laughed so hard they cried. She is such a simple and honest woman, with so much wisdom in her words! Maya Angelou also said :'I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.'

'I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.'

'I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.'

'I've learned that making a 'living' is not the same thing as 'making a life.' 'I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.' 'I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back.'

'I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.' 'I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.' 'I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.' 'I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.'

'I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.'

Please send this to phenomenal women today. If you do, something good will happen: You will boost another woman's self-esteem. If you don't ... the elastic will break and your underpants will fall down around your ankles! Believe me, I didn't take any chances on MY elastic breaking.... I sent it to a lot of special women I care for.

~37~ A New EARTH

A Must READ Book for everyone, I feel. Such a GREAT sharing from Eckhart Tolle, after he published "The POWER of NOW" few years back in 1997. Look into the Oprah's Book Club online to have clarity on his sharing. By just reading this book, my life transformed, and I am still reading through it. I would like to share with you all. This book was shared by my friend, Annie during her trip to Malaysia.

Thanks Annie, I love the book and miss you much. ~ Love, Prisca~

~36~ Class 3B3

• Wow, it has been about 5 weeks I stop scribble on my blog. Time flies!!!
• In fact, I had created a new blog called class3B3.blogspot.com on the 11th April 08. My intention of creating Class 3B3 is to share my knowledge and experiences in Fashion Merchandising and Retailing during my practice in 1997 to 2004. Ever since I committed myself in lecturing at Malaysian Institute Of Arts, MIA since April, the activities took a bigger space in my life.
• Even though the lecturing only takes me 2 hours in a week, the class has 15 people. Lots of efforts and thoughts have been put into the effectiveness of learning process. It includes the design of context and content, games simulation, debriefs, music, sitting arrangement, props and examples that appeal real and relevant for the participants and actively encourage them to participate fully in every sessions. I hope they could receive and retain the experiences. It is not an easy job. However, I just love the process of using Excellerated Learning rather than the tradisonal way of academy teaching. I learned so much about myself on earn the rigths to share, ego, frustrations, anger, and how hard I beat myself up when results did not show up as the way I want it to be. It enhance my thinking process, in another word, I am highly perturbed. I love it so much and highly engage with the process.
• The other thing I love is, being supported by close friends around me, they are Reza, Saba, Jana, Foo, Kitty, Lee and Ms Lai in sharing their experiences that relevant to my lecturing. Those sharing includes presentation skills, questioning technique, games design, content design and seeing possibilities in many many ways. It enrich my thoughts and the way I deliver my knowledge. Besides, it accelerated my creativity when I share my concern with them. Every time when I ask, I got another new question and follow by another question. This is also why I love Reza so much, he hardly give me answer, I got to think through it myself. This is how I grow.
• So much perturbations going on, until I found out that I speak very very less unless there is a need to talk. Most of the time I am creating, relating and note my creations on papers.

~35~ Add VALUE

Add VALUE - the key to doing MORE with LESS. It make a different in personal and business success. I have been thinking through about ADD VALUE all this while ever since my involvement in biz. I brought the topic up again during my discussion with Reza few days back. He suggested me to think about, what I have added value in the past and what I can add value now. Just only this, perturbation has been going on.

The PAST

I recalled my autograph during my secondary graduation on what friends shared about me. I found something in common that they shared about me is they love my cheerfulness, spontaneous and my home make food that I had shared with them. I made this available to my close friend and family members.

NOW

What I have created in my blog is to add value to others on life transformation "tool box", something that have made a better me. I am thinking of something that could make a better YOU, after reading my blog.

One of the possibilities that I could think of is providing a platform in blogger for Personal Development Programs Reviews; be it seminars, CDs, VCDs, DVDs, books etc... that a person has gone through and be able to share his satisfaction level rating from 1 STAR to 5 STAR.

The Rule Of Reviews

• Sharing with INTEGRITY, ones must have ate the Assam Laksa before sharing the taste of it.
• WIN/WIN for everyone, create an intention for growth to all parties.
• Create empowerment from RESPONSIBILITY rather than Justifying, Blaming or Denying.
• Satisfaction level rating from minimum 1 STAR to 5 STAR.
• Evaluation of satisfaction from all aspects including

1. Instructor's experience whether he has earned the RIGHT to share
2. Methodology, what method of sharing has been used? Forum, Games simulations, etc...
3. Ethic of conduct
4. Perceived Value vs Receive Value (Me as a participant)
5. Level of interaction
6. Level of learning, understanding and awareness (what I could remember until NOW)
7. Program Content vs Title of the program
8. Learning Objective vs Outcome
9. Logistic support
10. Continuous learning platform for growth, such as follow up series, lifetime reviews
11. Platform for networking
12. Level of transformation (I have learned from the program, take actions and make changes in my life)

I'm looking into MORE, your comments is welcome.

~33~ REZA Ali -The RIGHT Eye

Last week, I was having conversation with Reza over the phone, he invited me to write him a testimonials. I took few days to construct a passage however, I find it not easy to post it to him. I feel like thinking too much. Today, I asked myself on what I feel like saying about Reza...and here is my mail to him couple of minuets ago.

Hi, Reza,

Thanks for everything and every moment from you to me...

When I think of writing some words about you in your testimonials, some key words appeared, what I feel about Reza is knowledgeable, willingness to share/to give & receive, support life transformation, commit to excellent, "HARD" to himself, arrogant. When I construct them into sentences,

Reza is a very supportive person in my life transformation. I knew him through my Money and You seminar in 2005. He was an instructor in my Business School in 2007. He inspires me by his sharing of his life transformation and by his commitment to excellence in every area his chooses to participate. He easily hints me with examples which he draws from his experiences and he encourages me to seek my own answers by asking me the right questions. He never teaches or shares anything that he has not himself gone through or has not earned the right to say. I feel that he is "hard" on himself too, because of wanting the best of the best. For me, I just love the perturbations and break through so much, he cares with love. I grow with joy. ~ By Prisca Ooi

Done. Thank you for inviting me to your life, Reza - The RIGHT eye.

~Love and Hugs, Prisca~

~32~ Legendary St. PRISCA

LEGEND of St. Prisca, an amazing story. I chose this name during my baptism without knowing much about St. Prisca, in fact, there are very little to read about her during my search of having a Christian name. However, I chose it, I am attracted to this name instantly while viewing through the name listing of Saint.

• Prisca was of a noble family and at thirteen years of age was accused of Christianity before Emperor Claudius. By his command she was taken to the temple of Apollo to sacrifice there, and when she refused, was buffeted and sent to prison. She was released from prison, but when she still held steadfastly to the faith, they flogged her, poured boiling tallow(oil) upon her, and sent her back a second time. She was at last thrown to a lion in the amphitheater, but it quietly lay down at her feet. She was starved for three days in a slaves' prison house, and then tortured upon the rack. Pieces of flesh were next torn from her body with iron hooks, and she was thrown on a burning pile. She marvelously still remained alive, and was accordingly beheaded outside the city. Saint Prisca lived and died two hundred and seventy years after Christ's birth.
• St. Prisca day fall on 18th January every year.

~31~ Friends On INTERVIEW

Recently, my friends were interviewed by local media. Annie, Saba and Wendy on HER WORLD magazine, February 2008 edition. Heiko and Selina on NTV 7, live breakfast show on 27th March 2008, 8.45am. I was so excited to fetch them to the studio in that early morning. Watched them live on the stage interviewed by Hanson. It was so amazing. I see myself on the stage as a host. Hahahaha...I'm so glad and happy with friends that I have , they are GREAT.

~30~ HOME

Mum called me last week, telling that our home is going to dismantle soon latest by May. It is no longer a surprise for me because the agreement has been signed ever since 2004. I feel sad and excited.

• I feel sad, because of my attachment on the house. I grew up here since born. It was my grandma's house located at Perak Lane, Penang. Perak Lane is a "BLACK" area during 1970's, it was a happening area for illegal trading, gangsters, and fights is normal during 70's. In 80's, during my childhood, I knew there were people selling and consuming drugs at my neighbourhood. Under ground gambling, prostitution and extortion were common scenes. My primary school - SRJK (C) Moh Ghee is right opposite my house. I went to school by crossing a street. I could still remember that my Grandma used to lock the gate with big padlock, follow by another grill with another padlock. Home is a prison for me that point of time, I was not allowed to play outside the gate, the environment was not save for me, no friends no freedom. This was a programing in my past.
• Now the house is going to dismantle, mum and my brother is going to move to our new house soon. Excitement and joy come along during our preparations on moving to new house. Argument and disagreement between three of us, all together as a package. Lots of resolutions and agreement between three of us. Woooshss...
• I will be going HOME again and again until everything settle down, and Mum, I just want you to be happy :) xoxo

~29~ PREMIER

I Love the word "Premier", for me, it means excellent, great and luxury. Let's see what it really mean in dictionary.

• Definition: leading (adjective)
  
• Synonyms: arch, beginning, champion, chief, earliest, first, foremost, head, highest, inaugural, initial, main, opening, original, primary, prime, principal.

Such a BIG different from my perceptions, my meaning of PREMIER came from previous working experience in HSBC Premier that the company look into the Luxuries of banking services, the Premier Banking Hall equip with private meeting room, Internet broadband, fax machine, massage chairs, tea coffee cappuccinos, cheese cakes, besides personal banking advisory by their personal banker. Premier come along with Platinum credit card with very high credit limit, special rate for foreign currencies exchange, personal credit products such as overdraft and mortgage with negotiable rate and etc... Premier account holders are allow to invite their friends to meet in Premier Banking Hall worldwide. It has been created as a private home office for Premier customers. There will be lots of special invitations such as FengShui and Investment Talks, movie screening and etc...ONLY for the Premier.

I learned a lots about money matters from my Premier clients, they are knowledgeable and challenge me in many ways, they always think out of the box and see possibilities everywhere. I love my employment in Premier banking, besides lucrative package from bank, my success is continuous learning from great people every day. Just like viewing "Think and Grow RICH", book from Napoleon Hill.

~Clarity Leads To POWER~

~28~ Sand ART

This video clip touch my soul and I am truly impress and amaze the lady who use sand to draw such a nice scene with essence of LOVE and JOY. Open up your ears, eyes, heart, soul and feel the LOVE, see the impermanent and creations.

It inspired me on Nothing Is Permanent, Everything Transform From One Form To Another.

~27~ ORBIT In Love

Watch <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5lN96dgt_Y>

~26~ INTENTION

Setting an INTENTION is very different from having an AGENDA. How I get to know this?

• During my Chinese New Year celebration, as usual, I continue doing what I used to enjoy most - cooking for the family, meals for 13 adults and 18 children. In my past year, I picked up recipes and cooking details from books, newspaper cutting, TV programs and friends. I ran around to source ingredients every where few weeks before Chinese New Year. I felt excited, stressful, heavy and over responsible. What is in my thought are : Why should I cook? Restaurants and food stores are available even though it is holidays, unlikely 10 years ago, Chinese truly rest during New Year and nobody is working, every household will cook their own dishes otherwise no food.
• What's made me felt interesting about is, after celebrations and cooking, I always have lots of left over ingredients, which I don't need AT ALL and I don't like the access of ingredients because they cannot last long. However, it just happened.
• This year, I throw away my agenda on what I want to cook and no recipes. I just prepare some ingredients, which from my experiences, I don't think I could get it in Bidor. And I created an intention as simple as - I will cook lovely, delicious, tasty yet nutritious food for my family.

• Here it goes, GREAT meals, lunch, dinner with desserts that suits everyone taste, depending on that day conditions, when majority of us having heated up with our body, I changed fry chicken to stew chicken. That made a BIG different for myself and my family.

I created lots of sweetener in my meals, the desserts is lovely and SWEET for the soul. (the food in the pictures are not cook by me, my desserts are white fungus with green apples, longan with pandan syrup, caramel eggs custard)

~25~ PASSION

I just realised that I have GREAT passion in writing, posting colorful photos, slide show and video clip, sourcing and inviting friends to post their knowledge to "enrich" my blog is truly engaging.

• I have PASSION to share, to lead and show ways to better being, a Wealth Beingness.
  
• Saba told me that she saw the different in me that I am "softer" during our meeting yesterday night, I shared with her that I have made PEACE with myself.

It is an amazing journey.

~24~ FREEDOM

• My Freedom start by realising how I justify myself on self VALUE, I have got it during my releasing with Heiko and Selina, followed by the workshop of introduction to "Mastery" yesterday by Victor. It involves EGO, Pride, Envy, Jealousy, Conflict, Over Responsible, self Judgement, looking up to be Acknowledge, having Approval and Recognition from others BADLY.

• All these emotions lead me to a break through of SELF Value and I am still searching deeper.
  
• Happy searching !

~23~ MIRACLE

~Life itself already a MIRACLE, LIFE is MIRACLE~

Open your eyes and look into your palm, how many people on earth having the same palm as you have?

The answer is : NONE.

• It is ONLY ME on earth that having that palm and no one else. I am unique and individualistic. I am who I am. I do not need to or want to be who I am, I just BE, I am.
• I am inviting you to perturbate yourself on Claim The Right vs Earn The Right. Rather than saying I Need To (HAVE), say I Want To (DO), why don't say I Am (BE).
• Create INTENTION, knowing it is ALREADY in the being. It is always READY and always there.

I realised it yesterday during my present in "Mastery" session and I am posting my sharing.

Watch movie, <The Miracle Man - Morris Goodman>

~22~ RELEASING - My Testimonial I

This is my awareness to my root of "Running Away ~ posted on 27th Dec 07" (MORE testimonials on Releasing, watch them in YouTube)

My last releasing session with Heiko & Selina was before Chinese New Year, about end of January 08. I went through pain and lots of hold back, physically and physiologically. I made a decision to look for answers, the root cause rather than running away. I believe that every BREAKDOWN, is an opportunity to BREAK THROUGH, that is a result of PERTURBATION (by Buck Minster Fuller). Anthony and Reza do helped me in finding myself. I ran away from them and I don't know why.

In January 2008, I did 3 releasing sessions in a week. My first releasing was about my mum, I recalled and released her said to me that "I was a rubbish and picked me up from dustbin, I am not her daughter". I knew this statement long time ago, without knowing it hurt me so much deeper than I know of. I was so angry and painful on always wanted to prove myself to others, WHY? "To prove that I'm not rubbish."

• 1st Pattern - Besides proving to others that I am capable, I made myself involved and responded to almost everything enthusiastically with big smile, having an intention to make them known that I'm not rubbish. I know this NOW. Before releasing, I just felt something not too right that just jump into anything without thinking much of what I want, I also mindful enough to detect that I have a pattern of showing others that "HEY, I'm HERE, I can do this, you know..." Just like a dog staring at its food, all slavers leaking out from its mouth, and the eyes stand still with only the bone image on cornea.
  
• 2nd Pattern - I was always angry with my mum, every time I went back to Penang. The conversations always FIRE up. I don't intend to have it, however, it always as it is. I knew that I love her however also very angry with her.
  
• I had justified my capabilities by doing almost everything in life since young, and I don't know why, I thought I am truly talented of doing so. In fact, I got the answer through my releasing. Of course, what next is about knowing the truth, forgive my mum on her ignorant to me. Forgive myself on my past, love myself and send love to mum. GUESS what? During my Chinese New Year trip, I attracted Peace and Love. My husband, Andrew sensed it, it was the first time he saw the peace in me with my mum ever since 12 years of our relationship and it was truly amazing.

Mum, I LOVE you.

~19~ HERO

I want to share something I read from Joel's Blog, a person I met in my Business School. He wrote : This is a fantastic video about LOVE - Dick and Rick Hoyt. A lot of times, we have forgotten what love actually is. To be able to love and be loved is the greatest feeling of all. To me that is the greatest joy and that is what make life worth living!

~18~ DREAM seminar by Aspen Club

#1 Dream Seminar: Believe in Your Dream January 15th, 2008 by Tasha

• How important is it to believe in your dream?
  
  A belief is something you choose and it influences your thoughts and, therefore, your actions and results. Beliefs are never neutral; they either move you toward or away from your dream. It is imperative to create a strong belief in yourself and your dream so you take the necessary action to get what you want in life. Having a powerful belief also helps you on the more difficult days.

When Beth decided she wanted to train for her first half-marathon, the dream seemed overwhelming. Beth used the Dream Coach strategies to overcome obstacles and help build her belief, then she completed her first three-mile goal. Four months later, Beth successfully ran her first half-marathon in the valley!

• What do you want to believe in?

#2 Dream Seminar: Access Your Dreamer January 11th, 2008 by Tasha

• Do you know what you really want for 2008?
• When you think about your goal or dream, are you excited and inspired?

Accessing your dreamer is: tapping into the incredibly ambitious, anything-is-possible part of you and creating a dream you are passionate about.

Betty is a vivacious woman in the valley. She attended the #1 Dream Workshop last year to have a fun day with her friend at the Aspen Club and Spa; they signed up for spa services and everything. By the end of the day, Betty obviously accessed her dreamer. She announced to the entire group her dream of owning a wine bar in Carbondale!

• What is your passion?
• What does your dreamer really want this year?

#3 Dream Seminar: Live on ‘Purpose’ January 10th, 2008 by Kim Moore

• If your dream is aligned with your purpose - you will be more likely to achieve it.
  What is all this talk about finding your purpose? It’s not as complicated as you think. The problem is, we’re connected to our ego purpose “to help people”…”to be successful”…”to be happy”… and we don’t often know our ’soul’s’ purpose. For example “To be alive”…”To seek”…”To learn”…”To live life as an adventurer”.

Here’s a fun exercise if you’re liking where I’m going with this:“Three Memories of Passion” Worksheet

1. List three memories from your life that you are passionate about: (there is no right or wrong answer)

2. What’s the theme that threads your memories together? (you don’t have to look too hard)

This could be your purpose! Try it on and let it evolve. See how the good things in your life evolve from that purpose you came up with. It feels weird at first, because we are taught to be useful, not purposeful. Have Fun!

~17~ COLORFUL Collections

During my "balik kampong" trip to Penang. I carried away my collection of feathers back to KL. It was in a old diary, dated 1978. I started collecting colorful feathers since primary school, in 1983. In my habits, I used to throw or give away things that I don't want. I never give away my colorful feathers, however, I have stop collecting it.

Second collection that I have is Barbie doll costumes. A friend of mine, Ai Lee gave me a Barbie doll in Nov 2004 with intention to give it away to Andrea. Guess What? I kept it for myself, I secretly keep it in a shoes box and up in my cabinet, away from Andrea's eyes. Along the way, I keep on buying new costumes for the doll, costumes by costumes until one day I realised ~ I want a Barbie doll. When I was a child in primary school, I saw the launching of Barbie doll advertisement and I want to have one. However, my parents could not afford to buy me one. I kept the dream long enough until I shared my awareness with Avril, and I received a Barbie Princess as my Christmas present in 2006.

The PAST

I thought I have bought the BEST choice of toys for Andrea, cooking set, colorful drawing books, crayons, color pencils, water colors, colorful blocks, colorful learning aids that I do it myself. I didn't know that it was me wanting those toys. Until I realised one day, those toys are for me ~ The Little Prisca.

Now

Me and Andrea will shop for anything we want together, she will make her choice, so do I.

~16~ RESPONSIBLE

My Empowerment start HERE, and I just got the essence of RESPONSIBLE, while driving to my office. Knowing I have been living below the line and short changing myself all this while is a GREAT break through. All my POWER lies within me.

~15~ HUGs

Gratitude thanks to Dominique Lyone ~ instructor during my Money and You, because of his hug, I take courage to change and to move on to uplift my life.

• 6th March 2005, after Money and You completion party, almost every participants had went home, leaving behind the logistic team and Globe's team packing up all the boxes at Vintage Ballroom, Holiday Villa Subang. I was standing in front of the lift near to registration counter. Dom walked out from the hall, looking at me for a while and gave me a HUG, this is the first hug that I had from a "stranger", it last for few minuets. So warm and full of LOVE.
• My Money and You is about knowing lots of useful and yet very general principles in life. I did not get any break through during my Money and You. I refused to participate fully in my block game either, I almost slept during my block game while my team mate is talking. DISC personality profiling is very bull shit and I don't even think the report is correct. Along the way, I went into deeper understanding of DISC to know more about myself. What I really learned and applied is "PAY YOURSELF FIRST" and some useful distinctions about MONEY. Mmmm.....nothing much until I decided to continuing going back to Money and You revisions, receiver sessions and along the way, I joined logistic team once. So far, I never missed my participation, except Jun 05, JB session ever since I graduated from there.
• Andrew asked me a good question :"WHEN will you stop going back to Money and You again and again?" My answer is, "How to stop? Never stop what..." The answer was so spontaneous and absolute from me.

• It is more than LOVE and JOY, it is the journey of Self Discovery and CHANGE, Empowerment and Mastery.

~14~ HAPPY

Today, I have an interesting conversation with Andrea during our bath this morning. We used to take bath together; and have lots of fun, playing water and making bubbles, at the same time sharing lots of learning experiences while shower along.

• Me : Are you happy?
• Her : Yes.
• Me : Why?
• Her : I'm happy lah!
• Me : Can I make you not happy?
• Her : Nop!
• Me : Why?
• Her : I don't allow.

I always learn from my 3 years old daughter, and I'm so amaze with her thoughts. It was always a mirror for me and I'm so glad to have her in my transformation journey. I believe she is glad to have a transformed mum too. :-)

~13~ PAIN and Suffering

Article 87 ~ Pain & Suffering. A version to pain is really a misplaced aversion to suffering. Ordinarily we do not make a distinstion between PAIN and SUFFERING, but there are very important differences between them. Pain is a natural part of the experience of life. Suffering is one of many possible responses to pain. Suffering can come out either physical or emotional pain. It involves our thoughts and emotions and how they frame the MEANING of our experiences. Suffering, too, is perfectly natural. In fact the human condition is often spoken of as inevitable suffering. Written and shared by Jon Kabat-Zinn.

I got this book from Buddha temple in Brickfield while looking for Steve Loo, a friend of mine. Somehow this book caught my attention and I picked it up from the shelf. I brought this book along to my labour room and this article appeared to me while I was reading it in my labour of Adrian in 27th April 07. Contractions just started, very mile. It was such an amazing journey. As I went through the pain of contractions and realise that pain is pain and suffer is suffer. They are independent. Pain is just a sensation and the suffering is another emotion that I choose to associate with the pain, if I choose to do so. Otherwise pain will not have suffer, AT ALL. It was an awareness I had at that point of time, and it became a big AH HA... for me to see emotions independently.

~Your PAIN is not YOU~

~12~ My Transformation STARTER

Wow, I take courage to write this with intergrity.

First thing come first ~ What make me choosing this journey?

The events that hit me hard enough to take the transformation journey is my father's accident death in May 2004. Three months after giving birth to my first child ~ Andrea in Feb 2004. It was such a pain in my heart to receive a new life and the deceased of my dad in short period of time. Ever since the incident, life seems going no where; and what came to my thoughts that point of time is

• Why am I HERE on earth, born as human being?
• What is my true purpose in life?

When both of this intentions appeared, I went into massive search on Who Am I.

Sept 2004, I jumped into "biz" as self employed Insurance and Unit Trust agent, both does not work out and I was very lost and up set that time, nothing seems to have right tabs. Until one morning, while I was waiting for traffic lights to turn green in front of Globe Success Learning's office, I saw the Money & You banner display in front of their office with telephone no. MMmmm....Money & You, Money & Me? ~ sound interesting, I called up, signed up, paid and attended the program. After then, I seems to become a seminars junkeys, seminars after seminars that I have choosen to attend.

Such an amazing journey and it took courage to start, and every journey has a begining. Will share with you all more about every encounter in the journey, one by one, event after event...

~11~ Book Review By Danic Pheh

Hi Prisca, you are welcome to share it on your blog with others. I am glad to have other people benefit from it. Thank you for using yor blog as a platform to share it. Let me know on how others feedback on it so I can improve myself the next time I write another review. Cheers from Danic Pheh ~ Globe Success Learning Sdn. Bhd.

Hi friends! This is a review on one my the greatest book I have laid my eyes on getting out of the box by Arbinger Institute. This book is recomended by Dom during my Business School in Sep 07.

Imagine you are angry. What do you see of others?

• Do they seem like objects to you where they seem less important to yourself, where they deserve to be punished?
• Do you want to know what got you angry in the first place?
• Why is your child or spouse just could do nothing right?
• Why do you get under the line of Responsibility?

• Through this great read, I became clearer as I understand why do I gounder the RESPONSIBILITY line and stay there. I also understood the effects if i stay under the line, such as inviting others to liveunder the line with me. It's a negative effect that is transferred. Thus, I understood how can I transmit positive energy instead, how I can change it to a positive energy.
• One method I learned to go above the line is to see others as PEOPLE. Well, how do I see other as people? Feeling a desire for them, feel and understand them and relate to the mask I know that everyone has comparable legitimate hopes and dreams inlife. Feeling others from their point of view, values and experience.
• In order to stay above the line more frequently, I have learn to take action when a choice or feeling to serve others arises in my thought. This action will actually keep me stay above the line. If there is delay, the mind is able to justify and blame for my inactions. False images will be created in the mind. We know the existence of blaming and justifying whereby this book gave me a clearer view on how blameand justification occurs, which in turn gave me the power to change.

~CLARITY LEADS TO POWER~

~10~ INVITING Silence

I become the detached observer
And watch
My thoughts, with lives of their own
Flash and flutter
Rise and fall
Come and go
So many butterflies outside my window

I smile
And I slow my thoughts
To rest
Kindly and patiently
I calm them all
To rest

Motionless, effortless, all quiet
A great and peaceful ocean
Home to mysteries and treasure
At voiceless rest beneath the sea

With silent contemplation
And inner awareness
The mind clears its way
I enter the vastness
And drift beneath its gentle surface
I slow strong current of deeper self
Currents of serenity
Currents of love
Currents of joy
Currents of bliss

I am suddenly free
Free from a noisy mind
Free from a warring brain
Free to embrace the beauty of all life
Free to connect
With my pure spirit
To know only peace and kindness
Love and joy
A moment of eternal freedom

Liberated by confused mind
The deepest part of me
Emerges from within
And with the small and subtle gentle touches
Silence speaks to me

~9~ SIX Jars Money Management System

Jars picture shared by Leo Quinn in her newsletter. I have modified the jars into small plastic drawers that reduce space and dust, steady and tidy.

I have learned something useful from T Harv Eker ~ Millionaire Mindset Intensive Seminar, Nov 07. It was about the 6 Jars Money Management System. For me, I practice " PAY MYSELF FIRST" and the Jars System helping me to have FUN and not too stingy about myself when it is time to PLAY and to GIVE. I have labeled my drawers like this:

• FFA - Financial Freedom Account 10% of my after tax income goes in here and is not taken out for anything other than investments to build my PASSIVE income. I will put something in this account everyday...even if it's my pocket change, something I pick up that looks like money-1 cent coins, buttons. The agreement that I keep to myself is NEVER NEVER NEVER empty the FFA drawer.
• NEC - Necessities - 50% of my after tax income goes in here and is used for necessities such as food, shelter, clothing, car etc...
• EDU - Education - 10% of my after tax income goes in here to be used to improve myself. Some people might spend more at the coffee shop than the education such as...books, tapes, seminars and workshops etc...that improve my wisdom and intelligent.
• LTSS - Long Term Saving for Spending - 10% of my after tax income goes in here to be used for down payments on houses or cars...big ticket purchases like furniture etc. I am having 2 of these drawers and put 5% in each.
• GIVE - Giving - 10% of my after tax income goes in here to be used for charitable contributions and GIFTS for others.
• PLAY - 10% of my after tax income goes in here for FUN! I will spend this money every month or at the most every three months. He suggests using this money to do or buy something a wealthy person would. It's up to me but make sure it's something that really makes me happy and is fun!

I am self employed and I will want another drawer labeled TAX in which I put 20% of my income before I divide up the rest to be put in my drawers. I started up my habit with RM1 and let's see how the precessions go.

Always remember ~ PAY YOURSELF FIRST ~ Wealth is a HABIT.

~7~ "Happy Meal" From Penang

I LOVE food, I knew I have GREAT PASSION in food. I call my kitchen a MAGIC space and learn many ways to make food tasty, delicious and yet nutritious for everyone. Cooking is a magic show for me. Putting simple and less expensive stuff into GREAT taste is the value that I could easily add to everyone around me.

Sometime, I don't even eat the food that I have cooked. I LOVE watching people eating food that cook by me. Besides, I do enjoy the preparations of ingredients including selection, purchase, cleaning, cutting etc...and cook them into colorful yet attractive meals, that is enjoyable enough for me for the previous years among my family and friends.

One thing I feel CRAZY about myself, I talk to food and I believe the food speak to me too. I truly know which food taste GREAT when I see them. So far, I could always know the excellent one. Ha...hahaha...ha...

I have told this secret to some of my friends, Annie and Reza have been encouraged me to MASTER cooking. I called it a resolution for myself in 2008 and a skill to MASTER.

Last week, I've got my Master in Penang, whom has cooked and catered for Penang traditional wedding dinner (Chinese style Kenduri) since 1968. I managed to contact him, he is my uncle-in-law. I went back to see him last Friday for a cooking lesson, I heard from mum that this is his first time "open kitchen" to outsider rather than his crews. WOW, my pleasure to see him and other cooks performed the art of cooking and mostly are very simple techniques to bring the taste out by using sugar, salt, pepper, oyster sauce, sesame oil, Chinese cooking liquor (Rice Liquor), corn flour, rice flour etc... and the flavours are originally from the food itself, with a little bit of seasoning-the MSG, I don't feel thirsty after eating the food.

I am into the "World of Ratatouille". In fact this movie inspired me ~ Everyone can cook.
Look at the photos I have snapped, Loh Bah, Artificial Shark Fins Fried Eggs,Cauliflowers With Mix Vegetables, Cabbage Flowers With Mix Vegetables, Balacan Fried Chicken and much MUCH MORE such as Penang Curry Chicken, Dorry Fish Fillet with Sweet and Sour Sauce, Achar (Mix Pickles), Kerabu Chicken Legs, Steam Pork Ribs with Black Sauce, Pork Belly Soup with Pepper, Pork Meat Ball Soup With Sea Cucumber and Dry Fish Belly) Why no pictures??? Hahaha...I am truly engaged with the food - in the midst of tasting the food lah...

I feel hungry NOW...

~6~ Who Am I

The BodY Human being with 160cm height and 63kg weight. Female Malaysian Chinese with short dark brown hair, fair skin. Breathing since 1974. Body aching at the center back and heel.

The MinD Mindfull, creative and wild like monkey, hold back on responsibilities and reaching out. Having integrations on physical, mind and the conscious. Reaching to ultimate freedom and abundant.

The ConsciouS ALONENESS and BRIGHT.

I just LOVE being who I am and will LET GO more on the past event.

~5~ Tea Art

These are my collections of Zi Sha Tea Pot and Pu Er Tea since 1992, when I was From 5. I worked as a part time waitress in Mandarin Tea House, Penang after school to earn some income while waiting for my SPM exam's result.

Recently, a lovely friend~Shirllin, whom I knew in my Business School in Sep 2007. Sharing a space for friendship in her Pu Er Tea Shop at Taman Mayang, PJ SS25. Later on, I was introduced to her family~Wayne, Mr. Ching and Marie. I decided to "PARK" my Tea Art collection in her shop. They are the one who appreciate the value of Tea Leaves, Tea Pots, Tea Collections, Aroma of Tea ...

Drop by at the green color shop at No. 59, Jalan SS25/32, Taman Mayang, PJ. The location is about 400 meter away from St. Ignatius Church main door. Call them at 03-7880 0313 if you want to get there. I have GREAT value there, not just for the tea but MORE...

I just LOVE the space.

~4~ New Year 2008

Friends around me asking how I celebrate my Christmas and New Year 2008. Nothing much, of course and for sure is Family-Get-Together.

This year we get together at Rawang, my brother-in-law, Aaron's place on 30th, Sunday. All adults and children are there since morning. We got up early and reached Rawang at 9.20am. Avril's family reached at the same time and right behind our car at the security check point. Angie and 2nd sister-in-law was there ever since Saturday. We had our family breakfast in Rawang market, and start to shop around at market place.

What to shop? Hahaha...PLENTY...everything for our family and for ourselves. Everyone of us had hand full of shopping bags before lunch and we had everything we need with great bargain. Off course, we bought in group and get group discounts. This is the synergy we have while shopping together, it happened during our family trip to HatYai last year as well.

Next happening is after dinner, we enjoyed our Vietnamese coffee, wine and V.S.O.P, followed by Karaokae till the night. That is how the joy, cheers and laughter flow. Feel the essence of joy in Andrew's face with our little ones Andrea and Adrian. For me, of course capturing and sharing the joy too :)
