I need a break!

In a world that is constantly moving forward, it's easy to get lost in the noise and chaos around us.

With technology at our fingertips, and social media platforms to keep up with, it's hard to find a moment of peace and quiet.

However, it's in these moments of stillness that we can truly discover ourselves and find a sense of peace. Silence is a powerful tool that can bring us back to the present moment and help us live a more mindful life.

One of the ways to find silence amongst the noise is to set aside time each day for quiet reflection.

This could be in the form of meditation, journaling, or simply sitting in silence.

Find a quiet space in your home, or even in nature, and allow yourself to just be.

Focus on your breath, and let your thoughts come and go without judgment.

Another way to find quietness is by unplugging from technology.

Turn off your phone, computer, and any other devices that are causing distraction.

Instead, pick up a book, go for a walk, or spend time with loved ones.

By disconnecting from technology, you can reconnect with yourself and the world around you.

Finding a hobby that allows you to be still is also an excellent way to embrace silence.

Whether it's painting, yoga, or knitting, a quiet hobby can help calm your mind and reduce stress.

Hobbies that require focus and attention can also be meditative and help you feel more present.

In addition to these practical tips, there are a few mental shifts you can make to cultivate a more quiet and mindful life.

Practice gratitude, and focus on the present moment instead of worrying about the future.

Be kind to yourself and others, and allow yourself to slow down and appreciate the simple things in life.

Silence and stillness are essential to living a mindful and fulfilling life in our fast-paced world.

By setting aside time for quiet reflection, unplugging from technology, and finding a hobby that allows you to be still, you can embrace the power of silence.

With practice and patience, we can cultivate a more peaceful and present life, no matter how noisy the world around us may be.

𝗚𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗿𝗮𝘇𝘆?

In the midst of a tumultuous time in my life, I publish my second book "𝗖𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗲 𝗖𝗿𝗮𝘇𝗲".

Writing this book was not a tranquil experience in the park or by a beach - instead, it felt like I was adrift on an unforgiving sea amidst tumultuous waves. The journey of my life mirrored that same feeling of being tossed around and overwhelmed.

I have come to realize that something positive can arise from a stressful situation.

Reflecting on the stressful moment I experienced, it gave me the idea to document that story maybe in my next book. This will be another great opportunity for readers to learn from my experiences and develop creative solutions for dealing with stress.

During my most trying times, a hot cup of coffee was always there for me. Coffee became my companion supporting me. This led me to explore further into the world of coffee -- from its origins and brewing methods to all aspects surrounding it.

Serendipitously, I received an assignment to compose a piece about coffee. As I explored this topic further, the customer supplied me with useful information that ultimately helped shape my book - so much so that he became my personal mentor and advisor on it!
Thus, his name is included in all credits for the publication.

So, I am extremely pleased to introduce you to the 𝑩𝒆𝒔𝒕-𝑺𝒎𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈 book, 𝗖𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗲 𝗖𝗿𝗮𝘇𝗲.!!!

The book is available on Amazon across US / UK / DE / FR / ES / IT / NL / PL / SE / JP / AU / CA markets.

Getting up in the morning is hard. That's why so many of us rely on our morning cup of coffee to get us going. But did you know that there are other benefits to starting your day with a cup of joe? Here, we’ll explore why coffee should be your first indulgence each morning!

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗢𝗯𝘃𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗳𝗶𝘁: 𝗖𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗲
Let’s start with the obvious one – caffeine! Caffeine is a natural stimulant found in coffee beans and other foods, like dark chocolate. It’s the reason why coffee can help you feel more alert and awake when you drink it in the morning. Caffeine can also help boost your metabolism and make you feel more energized throughout the day.

But There Are Other Benefits Too!
Coffee isn't just about caffeine; it has other benefits too! For starters, its antioxidants can help protect your body from free radicals and reduce inflammation. Studies have even found that regular consumption of coffee can reduce your risk for certain chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes and heart disease. Plus, if you drink it black or with a small amount of dairy-free creamer, it’s a low-calorie beverage option that won’t sabotage your diet goals either!

𝗖𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗲 𝗜𝘀 𝗔𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗔 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗕𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲
Finally, let’s not forget about one of the best things about coffee – it’s great for socializing! Whether you meet up with friends or colleagues for an informal chat over a cup of joe or use it as an excuse to take a break from work, having a cup of coffee gives us an opportunity to connect with those around us. So go ahead – grab yourself (and maybe someone else!) a cup of coffee before tackling anything else on your to-do list today!

Starting each day off with a cup of coffee doesn't just give us an energy boost – there are plenty of additional benefits too. From protecting our bodies from free radicals to helping us stay mindful when connecting with others, having some java in the morning can help improve our mental and physical health as well as our social lives. So why not give yourself permission to enjoy that first cup before doing anything else?

In the 1984 classic film, The Man Who Would Be King, Michael Caine stars as Peachy Carnehan, a fearless and courageous adventurer. His words of wisdom in this movie have never been forgotten; one of his most famous lines is "Use the difficulty". In this quote, he encourages his former military colleague and friend to confront fear and use it to their advantage.

The phrase “Use the difficulty” has since become a mantra for many people all over the world who are facing adversity. It is a reminder that we should embrace our struggles instead of running away from them. Not only can we learn important lessons from our failures and mistakes, but also can turn them into triumphs if we use our difficulties to motivate us to succeed.

If you own a business, writing and publishing a book is one of the best investments you can make. Not only does it help bring credibility to your company, it also increases the visibility of your brand and helps you stand out from the competition. Here are five benefits that entrepreneurs can gain from writing and publishing their own books.

1. Establish yourself as an authority in your field: Writing a book shows that you have expertise in your field and know what you're talking about. It provides readers with valuable information that they can use to improve their lives or businesses. By writing a book, you create yourself as an expert and establish trust with potential customers.
2. Reach more people: Your book will reach new audiences who wouldn't have been exposed to your brand otherwise. By publishing your book, you can expand the reach of your message further than ever before and connect with people who would never have heard of you otherwise.
3. Increase visibility: Publishing a book can help increase the visibility of your business by appearing on search engine results pages (SERPs). When someone searches for something related to the content in your book, there’s a good chance that your website will appear near the top of the SERP due to its relevance to the query. This means more traffic for both your website and online store!
4. Generate leads: A well-written and well-marketed book will generate leads for your business by providing readers with valuable information about what it is that you do or offer as an entrepreneur or consultant.
5. Sell products & services: A successfully published book can act as a great sales tool for generating revenue through increased product sales or services offered by entrepreneurs or consultants like yourself! You can also use it as an opportunity to upsell products or services related to those featured in the book - this way, readers are encouraged to purchase additional items they may not have considered before reading through it!

Writing and publishing a book has many advantages for entrepreneurs, including establishing authority in their field, reaching more people, increasing visibility, generating leads, and selling products & services. So if you're looking for ways to grow your business, consider writing a book - it just might be one of the best investments you make!

We all need a hero in our life. Someone we can look up to, admire, and strive to be like. But the truth is that heroes are not found outside of ourselves – they are found within!

Every single one of us has the power to be resilient and breakthrough any challenges or obstacles that come our way. We just have to tap into our inner strength and courage. It’s not easy but it’s achievable with a positive outlook on life and some determination! You may have been through tough times in your life, yet you persevered and achieved success despite that hardship. That makes you a real-life hero!

Be excited about the possibility of being your own superhero - because it’s true: We need a hero in our lives, but actually, the real hero is found within ourselves.

At the stroke of midnight as the clock strikes and the ball drops, people all around the world are initially inspired to make resolutions for bettering themselves. However, these New Year's resolutions can be deceptive and it is not necessary to wait until January 1st to begin making improvements.

As long as we have objectives in mind on an annual basis, that is not a problem; however, when individuals procrastinate their aspirations with the view of attaining them automatically come Jan. 1, this will become a major issue.

The start of a new year gives us an illusion that all can be possible merely from flipping over a page on our calendar. Despite having potential opportunities prior to January which could’ve been pursued with more vigor; they diminish once lacking in motivation or dedication occurs.

𝐋𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐋𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬

𝐈𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐚 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 where everyone helped each other out. A world where instead of looking out for just ourselves, we looked out for each other. What a difference that would make! We've all heard the saying "it takes a village to raise a child." Well, I believe it takes a village to do anything worth doing. And by "village," I don't mean just the people who live near us. I mean the whole human race!

We're all in this together, after all. Every single one of us was put on this earth for a reason. And I believe that reason is to make a difference in the lives of others. To help others in whatever way we can. To be there for them when they need us. To lend a hand, give a hug, or just offer words of encouragement.

𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐢𝐭—what would the world be like if everyone looked out for each other instead of just themselves? If we all took the time to help others, even in small ways, imagine how much better off we would all be! We would have more friends, more support, and more love in our lives. We would be happier and healthier, both mentally and physically. And we would be making a difference in the lives of others, which is its own kind of reward.

Of course, it's not always easy to help others. Sometimes we're so wrapped up in our own lives that we don't even realize when someone could use our help. But if we make an effort to be aware of those around us, I think we'll be surprised at how often we have the opportunity to help others. And even when we don't have the opportunity to directly help someone, we can still make a difference by being kind and compassionate towards them. You never know—your act of kindness might be just what that person needed to get through their day!

𝐒𝐨 𝐥𝐞𝐭'𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞—in our own lives and in the lives of those around us! Let's start by being aware of those around us and looking for opportunities to help them out. Even small acts of kindness can make a big impact on someone's day—and on our world as a whole!

Focusing on What's Important

When you're running your own business, it's easy to get caught up in urgent tasks and forget about the important ones. But if you want your business to be successful in the long run, it's essential that you focus on what's important, not just what's urgent.

Why is this? Well, urgent tasks are usually things that are time-sensitive and need to be dealt with right away. They're often things that we've been procrastinating on or that we're not particularly excited about. And because they're urgent, they tend to take up a lot of our time and energy.

On the other hand, important tasks are those that contribute to our long-term goals. They might not be as exciting as urgent tasks, but they're the ones that will help us move closer to our goals and achieve our objectives.

So how do you know if a task is important or urgent? Here's a quick litmus test: if a task is important, it should advance your long-term goals. If it doesn't, then it's probably not as important as you think it is. And if a task is urgent, ask yourself if it really needs to be done right now or if it can wait until later.

The next time you're feeling overwhelmed by all the tasks on your plate, take a step back and ask yourself which ones are truly important and which ones are just urgent. By focusing on the important tasks, you'll be able to make more progress toward your long-term goals and ensure that your business is successful in the long run.

Collaborating can be a great way to solve problems. Imagine two people working together on an idea or project, how much faster could they complete it than if only one person was doing all the work?

Now imagine ten peers collaborating with each other simultaneously - the progress would seem overwhelming!

The power in teamwork comes not just from having more hands involved but also by exchanging expertise between individuals so every member has helpful advice at their fingertips when needed most.

Do what you Love.
Love what you Do.

很多时候我们一直认为我们必须做实际而又赚钱的事情，但是研究表明如果我们在做我们不喜欢的事时，我们就不会快乐。不会快乐就不会有生产力，不会有生产力就不会有成效。😱😱

那么我们要如何知道我们喜欢做什么事情呢？ 以下与大家分享我的小小心得。。。
首先我们可以想一想小时候喜欢做什么事情开始！

比方说，我小时候就很喜欢舞台，喜欢演讲，喜欢和人分享我喜欢的事物，以及成为一名老师等。所以美容导师及直播是我很热爱做的事情。我很幸运可以创造一个属于自己的舞台(LEO玩美女王直播) 。
我很享受和来自不同领域的老板及朋友们一起交流，通过直播与大家分享各自的经验，人生故事等等。也很快乐能与大家一起相互学习及一起成长。🥰😍

其次，我们也可以想一想我们擅长什么？我们在空闲的时间喜欢做什么？不要小看这些问题，这些都是可以帮助到我们找到正确方向的指南。想一想哟！！❤❤

最后，不要害怕冒险。尝试新事物是我们成长和了解自己的方式。即使不确定这件事是否是你的‘’事物‘’，也要去做，因为你不尝试你永远不知道这是否是你要的！！

我们每回会想，我们已经过了几个十年了，然而还会剩下多少个十年呢？
所以赶紧找出你热爱的事物，然后勇敢去追求你的梦想！当你找到自己喜欢做的事情时，你会发现你的生活将会很不一样🥰
大家一起加油！！

Introversion should not be confused with shyness, social anxiety, or a lack of interest in social connections.

27/09/2022

Introverts are far more at ease thinking alone and in a relaxed manner than they are when they are thinking aloud.

Sometimes when we are quiet, we are actually thinking. Do not disturb.

Keep it simple ....

Life is simpler when we think simple. Simple business.

Freedom is not about having the rights to speak what you like, nor is it about having the ability to travel around the world.

Freedom is about the space you have in your heart that allows you to pursue your dreams freely, bringing cheers to people around you, and doing the things that make you happy.

Happy National Day, my beautiful Singapore!!!
