Experiencing Team Synergy @ Excellerated Business School for Entrepreneurs

25 09 2007

Just completed BSE on Sunday.  BSE is an 8 days program for those who wants to learn more about being an entrepreneurs.  The last 8 days have been an amazing time for me.

I’ve learnt so much and just experiencing real team synergy and learning how much I have inside me really amazes me.  Everyday we will have to run and swim to prepare ourselves for a final Olympic event on the last day.  I had a great breakthroughs especially at The Releasing session (www.ireleasenow.com for more info) and the Olympic event.

At the business school, we were divided into two teams, the marketing team and the running team.

Annie at BSEMy team won the marketing event.  We created a product called StainGone (a stain remover product) and created many different ways to advertise our products.  We did t-shirts and hats.  We had our logos on the flooring.  We had banners on the wall.  We did a video for “TV” advertising and even did a couple of “radio” ads.  Our team was just so synergized.  We worked so well and that is how we have won the whole marketing exercise.  My team was showered with RM8000++ – CASH….it was simply awesome to be showered with CASH!!!  I could still remember the JOY we felt…

As for my running team, I have learnt so much about myself.  Our team created this little song to motivate ourselves when we run every morning.

Sheba, Sheba, Who is She?
Sheba, Sheba, She Likes to Pee
Inside Outside All Around
Sheba, Sheba, Never Let You Down

Sheba is my new found friend’s (Dr. Letitia Wright – www.wrightplacetv.com) dog.  Well, at the Olympic event, our team didnt win, however, for me, its the journey that counts.  How as a team, we stood by each other and supported each other to complete the race together.  Much that I can say about this event but I would rather have you experience it for yourself…

Well that’s all I wanna share for now.  Until then…





The Price of Not Having A Dream

7 09 2007

Such a great title, never thought that without a DREAM so many things can happen to one. But its so true. Many people go through lives without thinking about their LIVES! Why are they doing what they are doing? Some dont even care whether they live or die cause they have no reason to.

I have just heard a story about a man who at the age of 15, was a drug addict, smoker, became an armed robbery and burglar. What was he thinking about – you may ask? Well, precisely…nothing. He was merely living because he is alive. He is living day by day and week by week, and so on. He had NO REASON whatsoever to LIVE. BECAUSE???? He doesnt have a DREAM!

Well, he was caught and jailed…but someone gave him a second chance. This person, his new teacher, had a DREAM for him…

Quite some years passed by, and again at the age of 30, he was shot at a robbery and at this point in time, as he told his story of how much blood he lost and so on, he mentioned that the only thing he knew was HE WILL LIVE….coz he has a DREAM…

DREAMS are important to everyone of us. Without DREAMS, we are LIVING dead. Take a moment now and just pause…..think about YOUR life….what are you doing right now? Are you living your life or you are just living dead? are you doing the things you are doing because everyone else is doing it? or you doing it because you enjoy it and you know the PURPOSE of doing it?

There is much more to life if you are willing to BELIEVE.
Napoleon Hill said ” What a mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve”

It is so true, many a times we all have ideas and thoughts that how our lives should be – but again, many of us will comfort ourselves and say nah….those are for the rich, we must be content…and you know why we have such thoughts…because we LACK FAITH and we dont BELIEVE!

Well enough for today…gotta go
