I always think that it’s a dream or, its outside of my reach to be Rich as people always says that only 1% of the population are rich people.

While 1% is a very small number and its seems like being rich is a dream, it makes it so difficult to be rich.

However, today I totally change my views by looking at the world of meter info. There are 7,771,501,000 people in the world, so in order to be rich you only need to be one of these 7,715,010 people. 

 This completely to blow my mind, I started to believe I can be one of these rich people, its totally achievable.

Why does it so hard to make big decisions in life?

Why People don’t make decisions?

Because we are fear of making wrong decisions.

  1. Overwhelm ( Sometime they interact with too many informations and they don’t know where to start.
  2. When we trying to do it on our head instead of writing on a paper.
    However, the only failure is failing to decide.

Second, because of uncertainty, because you are not sure what it is.

Leaders are made to made to make tough decisions, do it with the greatest possibility. Leaders decide to be certain.

Before we even just into the method, here are the 4 crucial rules around the decision making.

4 rules around decision making

  1. ALL important / difficult decisions must be made on paper.
    ( If you do it on your head , its gonna do looping, you don’t really got any resolution, but adding stress and pressure on your head. ) 
  2. Be Clear about what is it that you really want and why you want it.
  3. Don’t Wait for Absolute certainty. Make the best decision on Probability. 
  4. Clarify the order of importance of any outcomes you identify. ( Value clarification )

6 Steps of Decision :

Lets make it as OOC /EMR to remember.

  1. Outcome
    Knowing the long term outcome is so important!
  2. Options
    List at least 3 Options, when you have 1 option, you don’t have a choice, when you have 2 options, you have a dilemma, when you have 3 options, then you have a choice.
  3. Consequences
    Look at the consequences of each optionsWrite down upside and down side.
  4. Evaluate
    Look at the upside and downside of options, which of the options make the most sense? Which one is my favourite option at this point?
    Does’t this upside get me my outcome ?What is the probability of it actually succeeding?
    Make it from 0-10 what gonna be good with it/ bad with it?
    You will end up with elimination with a lot of option, and have the final 1/2 left
  5. Mitigate
    Is there any strategy compensate  to get rid of downsides.
  6. Results
    Go and Make the Decisions

If you are in the Challenge / situation
1. You need to get resourceful
2. Describe the situation
3. Vision ( what made it possible?)
4. Get to the right people who succeed. Or how did you overcome situations before? ( Pull back the past experience you figured a way to deal with it, what pulled you through? Was it a believe changed?

Take 5 actions that will change your life.

Don’t betray your talent

According to Robin Sharma, most of the people on this planet are heartbroken because they have betray the visions, ambitions, values, mission in their heart. 

They have betray their talent. By buying into the mass hypnosis that the world has sold them. And now they’re 35 and they’re 45.

You can’t play at world-class unless you bring yourself away from the world and do the practice, do the training, do the thinking, to set up transient hypofrontality.

And that creates the pharmacy of mastery. And it brings you from beta to alpha and it releases the dopamine and the serotonin. And the psychologists have told us that state is “Flow”.

You have genius within you. Most of us are so distracted. They’re so over-stimulated. They’re are so interrupted that they don’t create the silent spaces where their genius can present themselves.

Embrace vulnerability

Vulnerability The willingness to show up and to be seen even though there is no guarantee.

Give yourself a push

If you’ re not always need to push yourself, you’re always going to parent yourself.

You will always to need to give yourself a push.

Triple down yourself weaknesses

If you are not good at calling on phone , then you’re going to call 100 times.

Being confrontable with being unconfortable 

WARNING: Don’t Even Think About Trying To Fast Until You Read This

Some of you have been fasting in the past, with different reasons. Why is it so hard to fast successfully? Sometimes its like mental challenges that you keep thinking of the food, sometime just because you feel dizzy and then you have to break the fast.

To fight with dizziness, first you have to hydrate yourself. Its not about only during the day, but the half glass of water right before your sleep is crucial.

Never try to be a hero by just having water throughout the day, you need to add 2-3 cups of broth into the meal, drink loads of salt lemon infused sparking water through the whole period of fasting also help with succeeding fasting.

The goal of the fasting cycle is making you to be able to focus more, stay stronger, not to be weaker.

A very simple Precision XTRA blood glucose & Ketone monitor is a good way to help you keep tracking in ketosis and make sure you receive a goo results. The chart in the following has a great guidance on what the level you are with.

Usually your ketones level will be able to arrive 4ml or more by the third day.

A tomato onion potato soup is highly recommended as a meal to break the fast. The moment you have this soup, your body will absorbed it right away. And you will be fully energised. Physical energy immediately gained . This recipe will be included in the next couple of post.

One side note: Never ever eat strong solid food or snack  in 2 days after breaking the fast, I will guarantee you having a very upset stomach. 

Second experience of 3 days fasting

I don’t want to lose weight, Why do I want to do fasting at the first place?

With the studies that fasting regenerate your immune system, recycle the unused white blood cells, cleansing body, balance your hormones, improve your ability to focus.

3 Days fasting is a type of prolonged fasting. My aims is doing this once per month.

Last month as my second fasting I failed that I have to break my fast on the second day after the dizziness. With self-evaluation ,I failed with 2 reasons.

First, I didn’t hydrate enough during the day especially wasn’t drinking half cup of water before sleep, the coffee shop where I am working as very busy during the first day.

Learning from the 2nd time, this time I added 3 cups of broth per day, drink loads of salt lemon infused sparking water through the whole period of fasting.

This time my husband is inspired with my first time success and he wants to do fasting with me together.

I used a very simple Precision XTRA blood glucose & Ketone monitor to make sure I am in ketosis and making a good results. The chart in the following gave me a very good guidance on what the level I am with.

The third night when I was having this soup, my body absorbed it right away that I felt my blood all go up to my face and I immediately gain physical energ .
