Don't Care The How, Just Ask and You Will Get it

I love these statement... I got all I want if only I am wise enough to be as simple as just asking and leave it till I receive it... I am a planner, I love to want something, then I plan, and then hoping my plan to work.. But it din't work dat way in life... Life is actually too simple but humans complicate it... We want something, we plan, we struggle, we resist, then eventually when we get it, I guess it's no longer trully wat we want.. Or maybe we can only do so much, do whatever it takes, but if we don't get it means we don't get it...
I have experienced many times just being so simple, ask, then do what i have to do, what came to me, and I go with the flow.. In the end the results is just what I wanted and sometimes better than I expected.. The process to get what we want is unpredictable, so why do we struggle so much? We have to go through it anyway... I always relate it to a journey, lets say we want to travel from KL to Singapore.. We know the road from KL to Singapore already.. If we predict there is a jam at this time, and we try to skip it and travel another time... What if there is an accident just right on the time we choose to travel? And it may delay.. Does it make any different if we travel earlier or later? We will still arrive Singapore... The worries we create destroy our mood, destroy our excitment to Singapore.. Why ruin it since we will arrive there anyway? How we arrive is never what we really can predict or plan.. But the more we can go with the flow, all the thing that could happen may seems to be obstacle become a story of your journey.. When you arrive at your destination, thats when you can be happy being there and plus a memory of your journey... :P

I own a cafe with my family... We work well in it and never expect to sell it so soon.. But things just happen unexpectedly, two of my main chefs ran away.. It's unpredictable and mom got panic.. She wanted to let go the cafe as fast as possible.. But we trully can't just leave the cafe as we still have a deposit with the landlord and of course our initial investment that cost around 100k... I can't just lose it all.. Mom has no heart to retrain new chef and I'm totally no way to take over the cooking part... keke.. maggie mee is fine... So i try to work this out.. don't care the how, just ask...

I usually do this by writing it on my phone, typing an sms and save it to draft... I wrote, 'I want to sell this cafe by mid of June for at least 90k smoothly'... and I am honestly telling you, it just happened as i asked... And my cafe was hand-over to the new owner on 15th June 2008... There are many doubts from my parents side, what if they cannot start so fast? What if the management don't aprove, what if this and that? I don't care, I just do everything, as if I already sold the cafe.. Unexpectedly, the management approve instantly, and the buyer agreed with everything.. And the buyer love everything in the cafe including my signboards.. which all these easier for me to let go... This is only one of my experience that it works.. There are more amazing stories in my life... I can't wait to share... :P

So, don't care the HOW, Just Ask and You'll get it.....

Changes?

To me "Changes" is a "Sign To Receive" or I called it a "Gate"... A gate that awaiting us to open...
A gate to receive more from life... A gate of reward... I believe so much that what is behind the gate is trully more of what I expected, I can't wait to open it, I can't wait to receive my reward,
I just can't wait...

But usually when changes occur, my first reaction is panic, then resist, then afraid, then doubt, then confuse, then dissapointed and all negative thoughts went on and on till I forgot that it is actually a sign of finding the right key to open a gate to receive more from life or it's time to reap what I have sow...

I have an experience of being disable for almost 2 years when I was 23 years old... I just graduated with a mind of building my career.. From an energetic person that talk fast, do things fast and walk fast to a person that couldn't talk much, couldn't do anything and definately couldn't walk anymore... This change really put alot of questions into my mind but with my physical pain, I just bother to find way of healing instead finding the right key to open my gate! Thinking back, the moment I recover is the moment I actually found my right key to the gate of more... Its amazing...

The right key to open my gate is to "Let Go" the resistance of the changes and "Accept" that changes is a gate for more.... Once I let go, that is when I started to receive more from life... The moment I start to heal is when I already let go and accept my own definition of changes... I accepted that yes I couldn't move freely anymore, but my life is still going right.. I start to continue my life, from working at home to starting a cafe of my own... I learn to be patient, my relationship with my family is tremendously close as i always wish to be, I am more connected to my true self, to GOD, and I have bring health into my family and myself.. I have found the best doctor in the world that able not to cure me but also to maintain my family's health that I believe can happen from now till forever... I have found the kid in me which I feel younger in my heart than I was before... There are more what I have gain from this changes in my life, those are the main ones..

But my impatience always confuse me to use the right key to open my gate.... So if the question came to me when wil the gate open? The time for the gate to open is the time I use to switch my mind from believing this changes is bad for me instead of believing that the changes is to receive more of what I want in life.. It not difficult but its not easy either.. It's possible!

May all of us able to recognise this... If there is a change in your life that seems bad for you, be excited about it instead of being fearful... Why resist the change when you know it's only a path to go through to your gift that is waiting for you to receive?

Do You Think This Is Just A Coincidence?

When I decided to change my job and start sending out resumes, I “asked” that in a day I will get two interview calls from non-profit organizations. Guess what? Last Monday, I really received two interview invitations, one from email and another from phone call and both of them were from non-profit organizations.

Among the 2 interviews, I actually prefer one of the jobs as a Data Manager. So, I imagined myself working in that organization. Few hours after the interview, they called me back and wanted me to go in for 2nd interview on the next day. Few days later, I got the job offer!

I told one of my friends how amazing “The Secret” is, but she doesn’t believe it and said it was just a coincidence. My dear friends who are reading this blog, what do you think?

Now, come to my H1B application. For those who knew how the US H1B working visa is processed, the application for private organization has to send in by April 1 and wait for the result. Like others, I sent in mine too. But since I got a new job offer, I have to resubmit my application and canceled the previous application. This means that I have to pay another $3000 (USD) again because my lawyer told me I couldn’t cancel the application that I have sent in and I can't get the money back. So, I made another wish. I sent out the “message” that my new visa application will be free.

Well, this morning my lawyer called me and gave me good news! She said I can cancel the cheque and so when the USCIS alert me regarding the payment, I just need to send them a letter and ask them to withdraw my case. By doing so, I will be able to get back at least $2500 and that will cover my new visa application fees.

See, another “coincidence” happened to me again.

I want to thanks Huat Heng, who introduced to me "The Secret" and showed me that, I actually can get what I dream for, what I want for and what I ask for. Nothing is impossible. All I have to do is just ASK - RECEIVE - ACCEPT. The same goes to you too!

You Can Get It If You Really Want

Invited by my friend Huat Heng as guest blogger to share my own experiences, I decided to pick this title, which is also the name of a song by Jimmy Cliff-You Can Get It If You Really Want. Mainly due to it is a wonderful song and it has inspired me a lot in my life.



I believe that music therapy may be one of the most convenient and effective motivation approach. So here, I recommend the lyrics to you.



You can get it if you really want

But you must try, try and try

Try and try, you'll succeed at last


Persecution you must bear

Win or lose you've got to get your share

Got your mind set on a dream

You can get it, though harder them seem now


You can get it if you really want

But you must try, try and try

Try and try, you'll succeed at last

I know it, listen


Rome was not built in a day

Opposition will come your way

But the hotter the battle you see

It's the sweeter the victory, now


You can get it if you really want

But you must try, try and try

Try and try, you'll succeed at last


You can get it if you really want - I know it

You can get it if you really want - though I show it

You can get it if you really want
So don't give up now


I understand that it is hard to keep our belief when we were 'beaten down' (faced obstacles) more than once in our life. We tried but we failed. Then our confidence begin to shake and we are afraid of 'tomorrow'. We doubted on ourselves and asked, "Was I inferior to others?" It seems there was no end to the darkness.


Can you believe that an outstanding girl who is good at dancing, singing and sports would ever get depressed? In fact, even her friends and teachers couldn’t believe it. Yeah, I don’t believe it either until I experienced it by myself.


I am the girl described above. Everything just started with my high school life with a group of girls, only girls. In their eyes, it is merely a new environment. However, to me, it was the most difficult time in my life. I just can’t fit myself into the environment. Before that, depression is only a word far away in the book or TV shows. But during that time, it came into my life. I couldn’t focus on my study, though I tried to force myself. I couldn’t stop crying. I couldn’t face the life. I was depressed!


I tried to find a way out to get away from the girl school. It seemed so hopeless. Then an opportunity knocked at my door, thank God. I was chosen to be in a one-year exchange student program to U.S.A. However, it was not a happy ending story. The fact is always cruel. The need of expensive fee for the program demolished my dream, my hope and everything!


I returned to the same old days, which were full with tears, fears and insomnia. When I went to bed at night, I just hoped that I needn’t open my eyes again because only the dream was the warmest and sweetest.


I didn't consult any doctor as I understand that I AM THE ONLY PERSON WHO CAN HELP MYSELF. At last, after using many approachess such as keeping diary, doing exercises and self-therapy, I managed to conquered myself! The recovery process was not easy, in fact it was a struggle. However, I knew that I just have to face it for a positive change! Because I believe I can get what I really want!


In short, although future is unexpected but you can get it if you really want. Never say impossible before you try it!

Sending Message Out to Universe/God

Most of us do not know how to send the right message to the Universe/God. There are certain methods to send the RIGHT message. I’m sharing my personal experience and the knowledge I’ve gained from various Gurus, yogis, metaphysicians and books.

Often, when we pray, we tend to tell all of our problems and needs. This way, we send mixed messages to the universe/God, thus we get mixed responses. So we have to tune our needs and wants properly in order to send the right message using the right method. Below is one of the techniques:-

Meditation
========
This method is a powerful ancient techniques used by yogis, gurus and masters of the spiritual world to transcend to higher consciousness and enlightment

But first, you must write down what you want .You have to include the criteria below .You have to think the end result of your needs

1. Request
2. Safe guard
3 .Express gratitude

For example: - If you want a car

I am owner of a new BMW 5 series.
It came to me in a peaceful and safe way. With divine will and free will of all concerned. I thank god/universe for this gift. So be it.

The first step to practice meditation is by controlling our breathing. This is to calm ourselves and stabilize our energy flow to the body.

The guide:-

1. Find a quiet place in your house. Prayer room is the best. In your prayer altar, lit a candle/oil lamp, incense sticks, place flowers to the god’s picture according to your belief, it can be Lord Shiva/ Krishna or any other Hindu deities/ Makkah/ Jesus/ Buddha/ Gurus while you perform the meditation. Sit in a relaxed and comfortable position, your spine should be straight and your head in alignment with your body.

2. Take some deep breaths. Inhale through your nostrils, as it enters your nose, and feel as though the air is flowing in your stomach and then it is expelled. Just relax into this quiet moment.

3. Say this affirmation in your heart “I’m fully relaxed and I’m protected by God’s light.” Feel a white light around your body covering you in an oval shape.

4. Now focus on your 3rd eye. Your third eye is in the middle of your forehead between your eyebrows. Your 3rd eye governs your psychic vision and intuition. Imagine a deep indigo light whirling with full of brightness.

5. Then say this affirmation in your heart. “I’m now entering my subconscious mind.” Repeat this for 4 times. And finally (the 5th time) say this “I’m now in my subconscious mind.”

6. Now say in your heart the things you wish for. Use the affirmation note you have written down earlier by using the criteria mentioned above (Request, Safe guard, Express gratitude). Say it for 3 times.

7. This is the important part. After the steps above, you have to imagine yourself achieving the result you wanted. For example, if you wanted a BMW 5 series. Imagine yourself driving it, feel emotionally how it is like to drive the car. Imagine yourself driving it happily around for few minutes, then with the joyful feeling, slowly drift to your conscious state and open your eyes slowly.

8. You have sent the message to the God/Universe. Let the candle/ oil lamp burn for sometime until you begin to do something else or going out of your house. Do not BLOW the oil lamp or candle as it will disperse the energy. Just use a flower or anything else to off it gently.

9. Repeat this as many days or for 41 days maximum.
