Read from The Star paper today about Creating Personal Presence by Dianna Booher. It's really interesting. I even downloaded her free 1st chapter. What she said is so true, here is the excerpt: Take Notice of the Tangibles You don’t have to be good-looking, but that perception helps. What’s good-looking? Forget movie-star looks. Here’s what most cultures consider attractive: a symmetrical face, a proportionately sized body, clear skin, healthy hair, and straight teeth.  Physical attractiveness results in a fatter paycheck. Particularly, taller people earn more money than shorter people. For both men and women, a 1-inch increase brings a 1.4–2.9 percent higher paycheck. For men, a 4-inch differential in height amounts to a 9.2 percent increase in earnings. According to Arianne Cohen, in The Tall Book, tall people earn $789 more per inch per year.   See more here  Creating Personal Presence: Look, Talk, Think, and Act Like a Leader  ...

As a Chinese, I grew up believing that the number “4” is not a very good number, in fact it’s bad luck. In buildings, number 4 will be changed to No. 3A. House number 44 will be changed to 43A. Car number plate of 44 can only be seen carried by other races, not Chinese. The number ‘4’ in Chinese –Cantonese/Mandarin/ Hokkien/Hakka means “死death.” However, all over the world, you can see some minority of wealthy Chinese carried the number 4 in everything - car number plate, house number, office address, phone number so on and so forth. The question is, if it’s death or bad luck for them, how did they accumulate so much wealth? That made me curious. I started researching about the science of numbers. It leads me to numerology . A friend of mine recommended a numerologist (I didn’t know the term then); I had my appointment booked, waiting list of 2 weeks. I was jobless at that time, no income, has plenty of time, very little money and desperate to know my destiny. I was open ...

A meeting with some of my childhood friends during the recent new year was an enjoyable moment. It's been more than 30 years we have known each other. We are now stepping into our midlife. There are certainly many happy moments with our beautiful kids, good career, caring spouse and many more but there are also many challenges in life such as Change in our appearance, receding hair, worry for our finances and so on. Well, I like and want to age gracefully, happily and positively. Therefore, getting to know how to handle challenges in this midlife is crucial. I have read this article recently and find them great, why don't you give them a try as well?

"Mummy, there is something in my mouth, here... ," pointing at a white spot on his gum.  "Let me see" Oh dear, a circular white pointy patch there, I touched it. OMG! New teeth sprouting out behind his healthy baby teeth at the bottom of his front teeth.  "It's gonna be so ugly, new teeth has no space to grow, they grew behind, let's go see the dentist." Daddy brought him to the dentist this morning. He was worried and horrified but getting used to it well.  The end result: RM100 for puling out 2 healthy baby teeth How do I look, 2 teeth-less?

While walking in the mall, boy uttered: B: “She is so sexy!" (A girl with skimpy tight outfit for an Auto show nearby) B: “But she has a photo on her butt.” Mum: It’s not a photo, it’s a Tattoo…” B: Oh… Mum: Photo can rub away, but tattoo cannot, it’s there on your skin forever. It’s quite nice hor? B: Hmm… Mum: What if I get a little butterfly on my chest? Isn’t tat sexy? B: (tongue out) Bruaeee…NO! :P

It was an agitating night and morning for me. First, boy was delaying his usual task before going to bed and in the morning, he was playing water in the sink while his sister was waiting for him to be shuffled to school in the car.  This sparked a voice inside my head, “What can I do to change his behaviour?” He is interested in TV, games, toys and anything else but study. As a fulltime-working mum, it can be quite tired after a whole day of work. Dragging my tired and at times stress mind to study with him can be overwhelming as he needed to be called upon many times before he is willing to move his body to the study room. Worried, I searched the net for my former teacher Dr. Earnest Wong. Yea, I was lucky enough to be trained by him many years back when I was still a college girl. Many people including my own husband do not believe in this kind of workshop or seminar. Hubby thinks it’s for the weak mind. He thinks we get brainwash and would have no help. I think...
