<p>It&#8217;s been a few weeks since my last post on my personal blog as I have been busy trying to work on my goals for the year. Although I am busy, I still managed to complete 1 bucket list item. I do not know whether you have realized there&#8217;s a portion of my blog that states bucket list as this is the place where I put down all the things I want to do and achieve in this lifetime.</p>
<p>If you have checked out my bucket list, you will know I have actually got to know about this from another blogger name <a style="color: #063e6a; text-decoration: underline; font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.celestinechua.com/" target="_blank">Clestine Chua</a>. Recently, I have managed to catch a old movie called <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0016P8OAG?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=dragoclips-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B0016P8OAG" target="_blank">The Bucket List</a> by Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman. The movie was about 2 old man who were going to die of last stage of cancer and were trying to face life with a more positive attitude by doing what they want to do before they passed on. I realized that life is short and if you don&#8217;t cherish the moments, you will definitely regret when your time on this planet is up. Therefore, I feel that we should treat our daily lives in a more positive manner and try to achieve what we want in life as times goes by.</p>
<p>Anyway, back to my blog post regarding my personal bucket list, I have actually managed to complete one of the items I have listed in July. The item that I have completed is how to roller blade which means inline skating. Initially, I was actually quite reluctant to take up the inline-skating course as the price was quite expensive for just 4 lessons. However, there was an offer at my workplace which cost 1/3 the price of normal private inline skating course. Personally, I believe in law of attraction and feel that I should take up the course. Therefore, I signed up with my girlfriend and learned it together. After going for a few sessions, I was glad that there were no more falls and injuries as I was able to skate more smoothly after so many falls and injuries.</p>
<p>Now I can officially cancel off one item on my bucket list already as I have managed to achieve it by mastering how to skate on roller blade. Next, I hope I can complete 2 or 3 more items on my list by the end of this year and I will update my blog again once I have completed any more items.</p>
<p>One thing to note to all readers on this blog, try not to live your life by default and not making any choices in life as not choosing your own desired lifestyle is also a decision of choice that you make. Therefore, write down the things you want in life and try to achieve it one by one. You may call them dream list or bucket list as it is all up to you. Just make sure you enjoy the process like what I do.</p>
<p>Cheers</p>
<p>Javier</p>
<p>P.S. Do check out the movie, &#8220;<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0016P8OAG?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=dragoclips-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B0016P8OAG" target="_blank">The Bucket List</a>&#8221; if you got a chance and be inspired to create your own bucket list too.</p>
<p>P.P.S. If you are currently living in Singapore and actually keen to learn inline skating, do drop me a email as I can get my coach to organize lessons for you.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-368" title="reasons_vs_results" src="http://www.javierchua.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/reasons_vs_results.gif" alt="reasons_vs_results" width="500" height="300" /></p>
<blockquote><p>#Quote: Successful people don&#8217;t have reasons, they have results. ~ Greg Secker</p></blockquote>
<p>Are you successful in your life right now? If you are successful right now, this means that you focuses your mind on the results more than the reasons. Recently, I have realized that one of the reasons why I&#8217;m not successful is because I keep on coming out with plenty of reasons why I can&#8217;t achieve what I want in life. Example of not having enough money to perform certain things, not having the right opportunities, not motivated to complete my task on time and so on. I realized I really focus most of my energy on the reasons why instead of my end results of what I want to achieve in my life.<span id="more-367"></span></p>
<p>Actually, the concept of reason versus result was from T.Harv Eker&#8217;s Millionaire Mind Seminar that I had attended about 1 year plus ago. Recently, through one of the audio books I listen, I found the concept once again and therefore I decided to write a post on this. Did you feel procrastination whenever you gave yourself a reason as you start to worry about what will happen if something happen? Whenever we start giving ourselves reasons to our mind, we focus our mind on the problems and thus more problems tend to be attracted to us (<a href="http://www.javierchua.com/2009/09/how-law-of-attraction-works-for-me/" target="_self">Law of Attraction</a>). Once we realize there are too many problems for us to handle, we tend to become immobile in our actions and instead of taking massive actions to reach our goals, we tend to take easy steps or make no big improvement to improve our situations.</p>
<p>I realized that our mind plays a very important role to help us succeed in our life and we have to choose our thoughts wisely so that it will not sabotage our performance to reach our goals. Successful and well known sportsman (like Michael Jordon or Tiger Woods) usually will focus their mind on the end results of seeing themselves winning the title and visualizing the end results in their mind while they are in or outside their game. Therefore, I believe it is very important that we should all start training our mind to focus on the solutions (results) instead of problems (reasons) whenever we meet any difficulties or challenges in life.</p>
<p>Right now, imagine you are a soccer player playing in the world cup final and your team is losing 1 goal. What is your immediate thought in your mind right now? Always ask yourselves what will those well known sportsman be thinking in their mind right now if they are facing the situation as you are right now. This will probably reminds us that we need to focus our mind on the end results instead of pondering on the reasons &#8220;WHY&#8221;.</p>
<p>Cheers</p>
<p>Javier</p>
<p>P.S. Write down your end results and visualize it to remind yourselves the importance of focusing on it.</p>

<p>Have you watched &#8220;The Secret&#8221; before? It&#8217;s a documentary movie that talks about the law of attraction and I truely believe that there is <a href="http://www.javierchua.com/2009/09/how-law-of-attraction-works-for-me/" target="_self">law of attraction in action</a> as it did work for me before. I have been creating my own vision board on this blog through the use of PhotoBucket but I realized there is something missing whenever I review my own personal vision board. I managed to create static and movement type vision board on my desktop and on this blog but whenever I review the movement vision board, I realized there is no music to keep my spirit high. Therefore, I have decided to use Window Movie Maker to create my own video vision board.</p>
<p>The following is my video vision board:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="500" height="405" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/LkOaF_RIeBc&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x006699&amp;color2=0x54abd6&amp;border=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="405" src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/LkOaF_RIeBc&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x006699&amp;color2=0x54abd6&amp;border=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>The purpose of a vision board is to attract what we want in life and keep our mind focus in the process. I will keep an update on this blog whenever I manage to achieve any of the events that is listed in my video vision board.</p>
<p>Cheers</p>
<p>Javier</p>
<p><strong>P.S. </strong>Create your own vision board too and enjoy the process of doing it.</p>

<p>Today post is about something really amazing that happens to me through the law of attraction in action. I did not really realize that law of attraction really works until I started to think back what have happened in my life till now for the past 1 year after watching the movie &#8220;The Secret&#8221; and finding out what law of attraction is really all about. If you do not know what is law of attraction, do not worry as I will briefing explain to you what it means but I do suggest you to go find yourself the book or watch the movie &#8220;The Secret&#8221; to truely understand the meaning behind it.</p>
<p><span id="more-93"></span></p>
<p><strong>So what is law of attraction? <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_Attraction" target="_blank">Wiki Explanation </a><br />
</strong></p>
<p>Based on my personal understanding, it is what your mind focus on and it will expands. Which means that if you put your mind on something that you may or may not want, you will tend to attract those items to you with or without your acknowledgment. Therefore, it is very important for you to set your mind to something positive that you want instead of negative things that you don&#8217;t want as the universal law of attraction will bring you what is in your mind to you unconsciously.</p>
<p><strong>My personal funny experience on Law of Attraction before knowing its existence:<br />
</strong></p>
<p>Before mp3 ring tones exist in any handphones, I have been thinking is it possible to have a phone that will sing my favourite song when someone called me and now a mp3 ring tones phone is pretty common in the market. I personally think that a lot of people have the same thinking as me and thus mp3 ring tones are created by suppliers to meet the demand of everyone.</p>
<p><strong>My personal bad experience through Law of Attraction:</strong></p>
<p>I have a recurring left shoulder dislocation problem and its really painful to dislocate your shoulder. I scared when I dislocate my shoulder and will always try my best to avoid any shoulder movement actions that will cause my shoulder to dislocate. However, no matter how hard I try to avoid, I will get to dislocate my shoulder at the place where I least expected it to happen. I have dislocated it while sleeping, changing clothes, sneezing (worst of all) and resting on chair.</p>
<p>After watching the movie &#8220;The Secret&#8221;, I start to ponder is it because of me focusing on not to dislocate my shoulder and thus the frequency of dislocation happens so often and unexpected. Thus, I start to divert my attention that my shoulder will heal and I can enjoy doing the things I have been doing in the past. The amazing part is that the frequency of dislocation decreases. However, when I start to think about when is my last dislocation, my shoulder dislocate out of no where few days after. Haha, pretty scary to me at first but now I start to get used to it.</p>
<p>Anyway, the amazing thing that I&#8217;m going to share with you if you are reading till this part is something really cool that I have found out unexpectedly until now. Few days ago, I have received a call informing me that I have won a complimentary seminar ticket to <strong>Unleash the Power Within by Anthony Robbins. </strong>The cost of this seminar ticket for one person is S$995 and the organizer told me I was one of the lucky customer to win the ticket for the event for free. I was pretty excited as I have been thinking of going for this event but I do not have enough cashflow to attend as I have signed up quite a number of seminars and courses previously.</p>
<p>The best part of getting this ticket is not because I can attend the event for free but it allows me to think through how on earth did it actually happens. Previously, I have the brochure from the organizer and kept it inside my personal collection album of the events that I have attended before. Although I have not attend the event before, I just put it inside the album and in my mind I told myself that some day I will be able to attend the event. I even go online to find cheaper tickets on forum or ebay but I can&#8217;t seem to find anyone selling at a cheaper price that I can afford to purchase.</p>
<p>Hope you see what I mean the process is important as now when I think back even further about other seminars and workshops that I have attended before for the past 1 year (Robert Kiyosaki Seminar,  cashflow 101 workshop and Millionaire Mind Intensive by T.Har Eker). All events seems to come to me because I have been focusing is it possible for me to attend the seminars or workshop conducted by the real speaker or author of the book in Singapore and they really conduct their seminar in Singapore. I am so grateful to what I have learnt and get so far and I think the journey to success will brighten its route if I keep on persist on it through my mind.</p>
<p>Anyway, the seminar <strong>Unleash the Power Within by Anthony Robbins </strong>is on 4th-7th Sept which is starting tomorrow. I think I will definitely learn more from this great speaker that everyone has been talking about. I will update on this blog what I have learnt from the event and hope what I have shared with you can bring some light to you too. If you also have your own law of attraction experience that you wish to share with us, do drop your comment in the comment box.</p>
<p>Cheers</p>
