Season Greetings


Another year has come to a near end and a new beginning is just around the corner. I do believe you have enjoyed a merry and fruitful year in 2010.



It is the time of the year to sit down, have a cup of tea or coffee, and do some reflection of what has been done and what’s not for the year, follow by laying plan ahead for 2011. I think I have much soul searching to do.

I had promised to update my blog more regularly in 2010. It seems that I still maintained the same flow of 2009 which I feel can be improved. Hence, I will be keeping this as my next year resolution.

As for post on the listed companies classify into 60 Jia Zi to be posted on a weekly basis which I had stopped down the road, rest assured I am still compiling the information. I am planning to turn the information into an e-book, and will likely publish it next year.

My last resolution was to have some animation on my blog. As the year roll-on, I have totally changed my plan. Instead I am recreating my blog into a full fledge website, and it is likely to launch in 20 January 2011. The animation part maybe added-on into my site later on as I look into ways to synchronize the information.

My friend reminded me not to go shopping in 2010, which I have not achieved yet. Hahaha! :P However, I have since drastically reduced my habit of excessive shopping for trinkets, shoes and clothes. The feeling of being in control make me feels good. I’ve been postponing of getting my diving license for quite sometime. This will be my next year resolution too. I want to get it done so when I start my world travel, I can include all the beautiful diving spots in my itineraries.

The most memorable event this year was that I have made a lot of new friends during my FengShui trip to Tibet.  It is not just merely a FengShui tour but a beautiful spiritual journey as well. The memory was a precious one especially so when I got the chance to meet with one of my avid blog’s readers, Mimi, from Mexico.  I still can’t believe that my blog’s post has travelled so far and touch other part of the world. Pretty amazing! This journey was going to imprint in my mind for a long long time. I will cherish all those friends that I have made and hope the friendship will last.

As I look back a lot of my plan has changed too. It seems to growth bigger and bolder from my earlier resolution.  My goal has taken a much serious tone as well. I definitely will keep-up with this momentum in the coming year. My year 2011 resolution theme is “creative union”.

So what’s in it for you? I promise it will sure be full of activities. Stay tune to MyChannel at Youtube, and BaZiChic.com.

And the most important notes for this post is…,
I want to wish you and your family
A New Year
Fill with miracles that light-up your life
Pair of eyes that are young and ardent to see the possibilities,
the potentials and the opportunities
A brave and generous heart to love unconditionally, and to reach out for the new and the unknown
Smiles that immortalize and captures undivided attention from others
Joy and happiness that radiates to your soul and every part of your being

Have a Memorable Christmas and Magnificent New Year!

The Law of Attraction


Attractive! Charismatic! Magnetic! Captivating! Alluring! You name it. Relationship and interaction with people is part and parcel of our life. It cannot be denied that up to certain level of our success and happiness in life depends on it. In fact, some research says that 85% of our success and happiness count on our attractiveness. 

Attractiveness here does not equate to beauty alone. As they says, “Beauty is only skin deep”. It is more about having a personality that everyone gravitates to.

You are like a living magnet that constantly radiating thought waves and energy that are intensified by your emotions. This waves and energy are then picked up by other people who are in tuned with the same wavelength. Thus, you attract into your life, the people, ideas, opportunities, resources and circumstances that are consistent with your frame of mind. Take a look around, happy people attract happiness around them.

In the Law of Attraction, it basically says what you attract into your life, the people and events that synchronize with your thoughts.

While in Chinese Metaphysics, we associate charismatic with the Rob Wealth or Seven Killing structures. People with this structure naturally exude a charming personality. Peach Blossom star can helps a person radiate attractiveness too. In the assumption that all these stars are positive, success are then not far away or at least, it is easier to get things done if people like you.

Suppose the stars are not present in your natal chart or they are negative. What can you do then?

1) Charisma is largely based on the perception from others. It is based on what people think and perceive of you. For example, one person can create charisma in another person by speaking radiantly and appreciatively of that person’s goodness to another party. If someone told you that he was going to introduce you to an outstanding, self-made millionaire who was humble about his success and down-to-earth, that person naturally had charisma effect on you when you met him. Charisma starts from a person’s thoughts and perception.

Hence, your thought and perception is the key. Change it, you change your world. When you look for ways to improve other's perceptions of you, you are already on your way to creating and building an influential and charismatic personality.

Think good things about people and show your appreciations to others. Consciously keep your mind and thought positive. You must be clear on the messages that you send, whether verbally or mentally, and the perceptions you create so that it is consistent with the impressions you want to project.

2) Visualize yourself every day as the important, influential and charming person you want to be. Treat others the way as if you were already the powerful, charming and likeable person. In other word, fake it until you make it! As Albert Einstein put it “Imagination is more important than knowledge”.

3) Contribute to the society. Influence adds to your charisma. Every influential person has in his life done something for the society one way or another. Mother Teresa’s influence and charm came from her selfless act to the poor. Tony Fernandes’ fame and charisma does not come from being a successful entrepreneur but from making his motto “Now Everyone Can Fly” true. When people say about “Star Power” neither Paris Hilton nor Britney Spear come to mind but it is Oprah Winfrey’s philanthropist persona that stand-out. Even Angelina Jolie cited as one of the world's most attractive people, constantly promotes humanitarian causes, and is noted for her work with refugees.

The Chinese saying a man fortune depend on “First destiny, second luck, third fengshui, fourth knowledge or education and last charity”.

Knowledge and education open-up your mind to possibility and make you see the potentials and opportunities. In the old days, the Chinese practice high standard of morality and placed great importance on education. When you look closely, these two factors actually were an impetus to change the mind as well as the status of a person. In the ancient China, education was the key to escape the life of a poor farmer and joined the high ranking officer of the imperial government.

The idea behind the above saying, “…fourth knowledge and education…”, and the Law of Attraction is very similar. It is about opening-up your mind, changed your thought and perception so you are able grabs or creates opportunities in your life. The former is through education and acquiring knowledge so it can leads to better lifestyle while the later is to maintain positive thoughts and improve the perception of other on you so it can pave the way to your success by having a good relationship with people. As per se, people tend to look up more to a highly educate person than other wise. In other word, a highly educated person especially if he is successful has more charismatic effect on you than uneducated person.

The fact that most of the famous and charismatic people around the world are contributing to the society coincide exactly to the above saying, “…last charity” should make you take note.

You should know what to do by now.

Charismatic begin with the right frame of mind!

A Healthy Self-Esteem


A positive Resource Star indicates a healthy self-esteem.

Happy Girl with Healthy Self-Esteem

Your self-esteem is very important to your emotional health. Almost everything you do is aimed at either increasing your feelings of self-esteem and personal value, or protecting it from being diminished by other people or circumstances. Self-esteem is the feeling of liking and respecting yourself. It is the principle foundation of success and happiness. It is vital for you to feel fully alive. Self-esteem is the key to peak performance in your relationship, career and your life.

What can you do if you have a low self-esteem or a.k.a a negative Resource Star?

1) Be clear about what you believe in and value. People who refuse to compromise thier values, like and respect themselves far more than people who are unclear about what is really important to them.

A person feelings and actions interact with each other. If you feel a certain way, you will act in that manner. The reversal is also true. If you act in a certain way, your actions will create within you the feelings that are consistent with that action. Hence, if you you act as if your time is extremely valuable, the action make you feel you are more valuable and important. Hence, managing your time well actually is one way to increase your self-esteem.

The very act of living your life consistent with your values, and using your time effectively improves your self-image, and build-up your self-esteem, self-confidence and self-respect.

2) Being in control of your life and be a mastery in whatever you do boost your self-esteem too. Being effective and productive in your work increases your self-esteem and sense of personal well-being. You feel more powerful.

3) Know what you want. A person who has a clear goal and objective in life, and take action to make this goal into reality, feels better about him/herself. He/she like him/herself more, thus, instill a stronger self-esteem in him/herself.
