Halloween, or Hallowe'en, is a holiday celebrated on the night of October 31. Traditional activities include trick-or-treat, Halloween festivals, bonfires, costume parties, visiting "haunted houses" and viewing horror films. Halloween originated from the Pagan festival Samhain, celebrated among the Celts of Ireland and Great Britain. Irish and Scottish immigrants carried versions of the tradition to North America in the nineteenth century. Other western countries embraced the holiday in the late twentieth century. Halloween is now celebrated in several parts of the western world, most commonly in Ireland, the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, and the United Kingdom.

Internet MLM - All About Leveraging?
Online Business can be a lonely business. You usually do not have any colleagues to brainstorm or discuss ideas. And you do not have any support from your subordinates as you are the sole proprietor of your own business.
However, it is important to LEVERAGE on manpower when you are considering online business. Leveraging on team efforts help to relief your workload and thus, fasten up your speed in achieving your goals.
What could leverage do with travelling all the way from Singapore to Klang (part of Kuala Lumpur – Malaysia)?
By travelling for about 400km, are you there just to enjoy the GLORIOUS food such as ‘Bak Kut Teh’...
OR enjoy the beautiful scenery at Cheras (outskirt of Kuala Lumpur)...
OR ‘lala’...
Leveraging on people when you are in an unfamiliar place not only help you ease in your direction, but also you are being recommended and introduced to fantastic food too.
So what does leverage got to do with your online business or career or your life?
For instance, in order to lift a heavy object, we do have a choice whether to use leverage or not. Well, a person can try to lift the object directly with the risk of injury, or use a lever such as a long plank of wood or jack. This will helps to transfer some of the weight and thus be able to lift the object with lesser effort.
In Internet MLM too, leveraging on people’s effort with the same force exerted, will produce a bigger result.
Which method is better? By not applying leverage, will you succeed? Perhaps... However, by using leverage, you are able to lift so much more and effortless.
So, the concept of Leverage is important in our business and career success. Without leverage, you may have to work very hard and rewards are limited by the hours you put forward. And with leverage, you are able to break this correlation and eventually, accomplish so much more.

The Courage To Change
Were you ever being offer a rare opportunity whereby you were unsure and had lots of uncertainties? And moreover, it was a tempting opportunities? Why majority of people reject to unusual ideas of thoughts?
Comfort zone? Mindset??
People react to the norm which is what others are doing for now, they would prefer to stay in their position because there are no uncertainties, where life will just pass by like any other people. And they are just comfortable in where they are? People are not receptive towards change, especially when a fresh new idea is being presented in front of them. It may sound wonderful to them, but they do not have the COURAGE TO CHANGE.
My daughter, Rae, 4yrs 7mths, picked up the word “The Courage To Change” and put it in her drawing. She may not understand those words, but in time, she will get it.
To Rae, it was a very simple representative drawing of herself in two positions.
But to me, I could perceive the great meaning with the wordings “The Courage To Change” incorporated. I could see that the girl who was standing under the tree, who was so used to her comfort zone, took courage to make her move out of the tree. The perspective is that, if that girl is to stay protected under the tree, there is a limitation to her view, however, when she moved her position, she could see the world in a wider angle. Yes, that’s the paradigm shift.
Well, this is how I analyse the drawing; I believe you may have a different view from mine. But it is always GREAT when you step out that comfort zone to have a wider angle of view – The Courage To Change.

Holy Are You, Lord
I really like this piece of worshipping music.
Holy! That's what our God is... every day, all the time.
Relax yourself... close your eyes... and worship him while you listen.
Holy! That's what our God is... every day, all the time.
Relax yourself... close your eyes... and worship him while you listen.
(P.S. Be patience with the uploading of music, it's worth listening.
I am always in tears whenever I listen to this,
is filled with the anointing of the Lord.)
FYI: The subtitles you going to see on the screen is Dutch.
Holy Are You, Lord
by Terry Macalmon
Holy Are You, Lord
by Terry Macalmon
Can you hear the sound of heaven
Like the sound of many waters
It's the sound of worship coming from His throne
There are cries of adoration
As men from every nation
Lift their voice to make His glory known, singing
Holy, holy, holy are You, Lord
Holy, holy, holy are you, Lord
The elders and angels bow
The redeemed worship You now
Holy, holy, holy are You, Lord
