KALAH LAGI YA SAIDIIII

OK this is a perfectly valid excuse ok, I lost because I didn't concentrate fully. Reason being? While we were playing, I was also:

1. Skype-ing with my uplines (totally not your fault OK!)

2. Managing our own lil' biz

3. Sending & confirming on Saturday's Smart Money session invitation

4. ....owh & answering a call all the way from Miami!

OK. Naahhh...Sabtu ni siap lah U, I akan menang!ceesss tak puas hatiiiiiiii


U suddenly mentioned something when we were playing.

"Kenapa skarang tak byk komen dr kwn2 u in your blog?"

Hmmmm.

Honestly, aku pun tak sure. Maybe sbb post2 sume psl dry topic kot. And I hope talking more about it can open up ppl's minds, just like what I went through. I think passive income is something so wonderful. You're paid for your efforts. You're completely in control of your own business. You inspire people to become successful with you.

I'm not saying that our profession now is a crappy one, Alhamdulillah syukur sangat2 Allah murahkan rezeki sampai jadi macam sekarang. Ini semua hasil doa & pengorbanan parents & family kita. Therefore, I'm willing to stretch an extra 100miles to maybe possibly repay 1% of the hardship & sacrifices that they made to ensure we get this far. Tapi when we're only relying on an active income, we can only be paid so much. We can only give our loved ones so much. Tak mintak dgn parents pon dh cukup baik kdg2. Mane nak melayan nafsu sume brg pon nak skrg juge itu kan. Hehe.

The common thing between us humans is the hours of the day The Almighty gives us. 24 hours. Subtract that with 10 hours of working for active income, 6-8 hours of rest, we're only left with 6 hours the most, the only extra time for ourselves.

What differentiates humans is the way they spend their own dedicated time. Be it to leisure around, extra sleep/rest, or working for extra income, preferably passive income. Wouldn't it be nice to have cash flowing into your account every month without much effort? And why wait? It's OK to start slowly, picking up the pace while you learn. Slowly but surely, you'll get there faster than anyone else who thinks their lives are contented enough.


Isn't it lovely when you can control your own life? It's our own, for God's sake. Everyone else has no right to determine what we should be, what we should have & what we couldn't afford to have.

Isn't it great to have such a desire to live the life that you want?

Then life wouldn't be so uptight.

I dunno. That's 1 way to think about it.

What say you, luvs?

hehe. comel je ille ni.

well, from my point of view, we're malays. we have this set of belief that malays don't do well in business. unlike the chinese. and one more thing, malays are conservative people at heart, we don't really like to venture into aomething new, opting instead to stay inside our comfort zone.

and this difference is the reason why the chinese are all filthy rich.

so i think maybe this concept u're suggesting is a bit too avant-garde for us. it is interesting, and it will really pay in the long run (the closest example would be YOU, hehe). maybe some of us just needs some time to digest the concept, and from what i think la kan, to start a side business needs passion, creativity and perseverance. aku sangat kagum ngan ko coz you amazingly have all three.

so, em, ok panjang plak aku bebel. my point is that, bende ni akan slowly absorbed ke dalam kita semua, just that it needs time kot.

even i myself am learning from your books and cd's (albeit at a snail's pace). cuma tunggu ada mentol lampu nak menyala je dalam otak ni. hehe

ille to sher:

Babe, sgt wise (& diplomatic!tq sbb ade unsur menjage hati sume org di situ!) commentmu!Yup I couldn't agree more, this needs time. Bayangkan U 1yr kot tunggu aku nye mindset shift. I can't wait (ok i'll wait patiently!hehe) for my girls' too. It'll change us no doubt, but it's for the better...kn?

Sayang korg!muah2!
