Met my buddy, Chang Liang. What a fortituous way to start the 2009, eh?
Looking forward to creating a close and committed relationship with my buddy. Very excited about this, especially for 2009!

Met up with James, and he gave a short coaching for me and Patrick.
What did we create differently the last 1 year that was different from the pervious 5 years? What do we want to achieve for 2009?
Me - having an Executive. Success is repeatable. Just repeat my success. Also, BE the 5% and FIND the 5%.
James pointed out that one cannot coach if one is not being coached. Ruby - find 4 people, and help them to find people. What will enrol and keep on enrolling people/downlines is BEING. Area of building people - what skills I'm improving in this area after a time/period? Repeat success and 2009 will be different.
Can I do it alone? NO! We all go through ups and downs. Cannot be on my own esp. when times are tough.

Met up Friederike Loh for dinner. She's a great lady! A psychologist and a Major in the Army. Doing her Masters now and NLP. Loves Jonh C Maxwell. Plans to start her own consultancy/training biz end next year when she's out of the Army. She'll forcus on youth and children. But found out that she's done Nu Skin before, 2 years ago, and is active with her ARO. She can do with TRA... will see how.

After that went to a talk on Feminism at SCWO, at Diana Lau's invitation. Glad I went. Learnt alot, became more aware about the term and what is 'Feminism'. Got to know Diana better too. Not only is she a physiotherapist that runs a health company for her boss, she's into helping and volunteering to enrich her life; with Make a Wish Foundation (10 wishes granted), Volunteer Museum Guide, count flag money for the Heart Foundation (3yrs). Wow! My life just expanded after mtg these 2 women! Got Nazirah's namecard, she's from HP.

Learning
======
Am fired up by Chang Liang's idealism and commitment to help the children of the world! Didn't realise I've lost my idealism (if I had any to start with). I think we make a good balance: he can fire up my enthusiasm for life and for me to reflect upon and search deep within me for my ideals, my promises, so that I am enthusiastic again doing the NS biz. Him - I can give a listening ear as well as my experience. :)

I realised that although being focused and having 'one track mind' abt NS is important to doing the biz well, after last nite, I realised that I've become a 'boring' person. I don't have balance in my life. It's all NS. I go to events, to ultimately to prospect. I meet people up, for NS. Last nite made me realised how shallow and boring a person I've become. Now, I'm committed to creating balance in my life; biz life, family life, find my soul mate, friends.

Blessing
======
My buddy is a blessing because he adds value in my life and person. Starting with igniting my enthusiasm for life again. My promise in this life.
Friederike and Diana - they've opened up my eyes last nite to achieve balance and do beyond NS.
James - giving me tough feedback, the occasional coaching that mirrors me where I am and what I need to look out for. Always being there for me.
Hwee Suan - giving valuable feedback that's not easy to give, but making a stand, caring for me anyway.
