Who am I?

Last month, I attended a seminar by Mr. Arthur Yap about identifying who am I. I paid special attention to this seminar cos I know the importance of knowing who am I before I can achieve great success, be it as a mother or as an entrepreneur. This seminar has changed the way I think about myself and certainly raised my self confidence many folds. I believe I am a better mother now. Not only I find myself different, there are people around me whom i meet frequently also commented that I am different now. And my kids' future will be changed. I appreciate my past and appreciate what I have. If you know me well, you will see that I am a "kiasu" (competitive) mommy. I am always looking into the "best" ways to nurture my kids, and how to nurture them in such a way that they will be great and contribute to society next time. I also keep moving on and improving myself, and also learn from the experienced, not so much from the so-called experts though.

As a mother, in order to be able to nurture our children more effectively and confidently, and be able to stand up in the society on their own, I need to have self confidence and be an achiever, achieving great things. Children usually follow what we do rather than what we say. A mother with little self confidence will have lots of challenges in disciplining her own kids, plus difficulty in nurturing kids with self confidence. With higher self confidence, we will naturally have higher self respect for ourselves, and naturally earn respect from our children. Recently, I read from Dr. Sears about disciplining our children. He wrote that "Being an authority figure, you are trusted and respected, not feared. Lasting authority cannot be based on fears." Therefore, it's very important to earn respect from our children. In order to have their respect, we need to have self respect for ourselves. If we don't, we better do something to improve ourselves.

I will attend Mr. Arthur Yap seminars monthly. Mr. Arthur Yap conducts a seminar on personal development monthly. Why I attend so often? Firstly, I am kiasu. Secondly, it's affordable (cheap) and value for money. Thirdly, I learn something from him every time I attended and improved myself. Fourth, Mr. Arthur Yap is down to earth. Fifth, Mr. Arthur Yap has changed many lives before. Imagine you learn one value from him every month, over 1 year, that will be 12 values, which means 12 parts of your inner self have changed, and the changes you went through will definitely impact your family life and certainly your children's future.

According to Prof. Shichida, nurturing and educating our own child, starts from the mother. Stressful eh? Haha... Stressful or not comes from the mind too. It's another topic to talk about though. To sum it all, as a mother, we must always keep improving ourselves.

After the seminar last month, I am proud to write that I have achieved a bigger goal last month in Sab. I have achieved a success which many people admired in Sab. I hope I will be an inspiration to you too.

Ok, I gotta go. Lastly, if you want to find out more about Mr. Arthur Yap seminars, I will be glad to provide you more information. I guarantee you will be a different person over one year. Email to me at linnaung@gmail.com.
