Ethan_Oleh Posted October 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 (edited) Choosing Land & Positioning Your Home with Good Feng Shui Owning a home with ample land away from the city is always a delightful way to live… Imagine waking up to birds chirping sweetly by your window away from the blaring city bustle, and hosting weekend BBQ getaways amidst your beautifully landscaped gardens, planted with abundant fruit trees and luscious flowers! Thus home and land packages have become a popular way of marketing real-estate of new subdivisions in the suburban outskirts, but what’s more, buying your land and home this way gives you a golden opportunity to design the perfect feng shui oasis you call home! When selecting a piece of land to buy, always start by choosing your plot with sound feng shui principles in mind. Remember that chi flows from the outside into your home and thus what’s outside your home is as important as what’s inside it. Here are some of the key things to remember when selecting a piece of land that attracts abundance and prosperity. 1SURVEY THE SURROUNDINGS As the first step, it is always important to survey the surroundings of your land carefully, taking note of waterways, lakes and mountain ranges surrounding your land. As a general rule, your land should allow your home to be positioned in a way where mountainous hillocks appear behind your home and waterways appear in front of your home. Having mountains behind your home form your auspicious Black Tortoise, bringing you support in everything that you do – for your career, your business and relationships. Thus homes that are well-supported by mountains always benefit its occupants by attracting opportunities to increase their power, rank and status. You must also take note of any yin locations that could ruin your good feng shui, and avoid buying plots of land that are near them! These are locations that generate too much yin energy - places like such as dumpsters, landfills, sewer ponds, cemeteries and hospitals. 2SELECT A REGULAR SHAPED PIECE OF LAND When it comes to good feng shui, it is always more auspicious to live on a plot of land that is regular-shaped, like a square or rectangle. Trapezium-shaped land is also acceptable, and if the choices of land you have are trapezium, try to select one where the “mouth” of the land is smaller than the pouch behind. Land with this formation brings the favourable aspect of wealth accumulation luck! It is said that land with a small mouth and big pouch can accumulate wealth, while land with a small pouch and big mouth will cause your expenses to become so large that you find it difficult to accumulate assets in the long term. Still, a trapezium-shaped piece of land is better than a land shaped as a triangle! When your land is triangular in shape, it symbolises the element of Fire, not advisable as the base on which your house is built! But more importantly, a triangular piece of land creates “missing corners” which denote missing luck! Under the Eight Aspirations formula of feng shui, your luck is complete when you can demarcate your land into nine equal sectors of luck around the compass. 3DEEP IS BETTER THAN WIDE The Chinese believe that luck should extend for at least three generations, or better still, five generations! Hence old Chinese houses are built with many compartments of depth, symbolising luck that runs long and deep! Your land should also mimic this philosophy and be as long and deep as possible, as opposed to being shallow and wide. Shallow and wide pieces of land suggest luck that is not long-lasting, luck that fizzles out quickly. A long and deep piece of land also allows you to position your home in a way that creates an auspicious “bright hall” effect, letting good vibrant chi collect and settle in front of your house. 4AVOID LAND THAT SLOPES BACKWARDS Land that has been carved out of hills and undulating meadows tend to come with varying gradients. A gentle slope can help chi to flow and meander but steep slopes are generally bad news. Refrain from the temptation to buy a piece of land where the back of the land slopes downwards, as this always denotes missed opportunities. When the back of the house falls away, it symbolises that the Black Tortoise is missing… you will find it difficult to gain support for anything you try to achieve, and obstacles will prevent you from elevating your status. Slopes can be beneficial if the left side of your home is slightly higher than your right… especially if your home can be positioned to face a cardinal direction such as North, South, East or West. When in doubt, opt for a flat piece of land as this the safest choice, as a flat piece of land gives you maximum flexibility to activate landscape feng shui through the clever positioning of trees and plants. 5POSITION YOUR HOUSE CORRECTLY Finally, once you have secured a good piece of land, you can have loads of fun designing your new home! On the right are illustrations of all the various placements of homes that connote different meanings. The key is to strive for balance, to have a little bit of space all around the home to symbolise the celestial guardians of your land. It is always more auspicious to have slightly more space in front of the house than at the back, but you should never build your house so far to the back that you are “beckoned to the back” (house A)! Houses with this position tend to attract situations in life where they have “no way out”, always pushed all the way back. The reverse of this position (House B) is also not auspicious, as this places the House too far to the front. Placed this way the house does not benefit from having a Bright Hall, a place where chi can collect, settle and enter the home. Placement B results in fewer choices in life, fewer opportunities and good fortune is slower to come by than others. Positions C and D are very common in many Hollywood mansions that try to keep the left and right side open to place their tennis courts, swimming pools and mini golf courses! It is acceptable to place your home a little closer to the left or right, but try not to build your home so close to the boundaries that you create a situation where either your Green Dragon or White Tiger becomes overpowered by the other. Position C shows a situation where the Tiger (on the right side of your house) has been given too much symbolic space, giving it too much power over the Dragon. The White Tiger is important to have, but it must not be given too much power and when the White Tiger overpowers the Green Dragon, it can result in either spouse leaving the family unit. Similarly, Position D places the house so far to the right side (inside looking out) that the White Tiger has no power. The best position is when the House is placed in a way where the front of the house is given slightly more space than the back, and the Dragon side is given a little more room than the Tiger side of the home.

Ethan_Oleh Posted October 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 (edited) 20 Ways to Enhance Your Get-Rich Potential 1. Practise Being a Good Communicator Enroll for a course in improving your communications. Learn how to be more persuasive and enticing in the way you present yourself, your product and the way you package what you sell. Success in any business depends on how you market your products and services, and doing this effectively does require good communication skills. It also requires a well thought out strategy and a convincing story line. Get some professional help in this area to set you thinking along these lines. Don’t forget your feng shui though – everytime you get up to speak, each time you chat with a potential customer or client, face your sheng chi direction. This way, you will be further increasing your chances of success. 2. Think Three Steps Ahead In the day-to-day management of your business, always think three steps ahead. Good anticipation is not only the key to success, it is also the guarantee of survival. Make it a habit to anticipate customer demands, inventory levels, price increases, staff shortages and so forth. You will find that over time, the habit of thinking ahead will become so ingrained in you that it becomes second nature. This is called experience. Doing it consciously makes this habit more powerful. 3. It’s Ok to be Imperfect Whatever the outcome of what you do, always bear in mind that it is impossible to be perfect. Events and outcomes almost never work out exactly as you plan them to. Sometimes results exceed your expectations, and other times, your new product launch can fall as flat as a lead balloon. It is not necessary to berate yourself for the occasional failures. Chalk things up to a bad experience, even bad luck and then move on. Remember that it is by accepting your imperfections that you know you are all human. The key thing when you fall is to be able to pick yourself up again, each and every time. 4. Keep Things Simple Do your very best to simplify all the tasks and processes inside your head. Make a resolution this year that you will NOT allow anyone to confuse you with complicated suggestions OR dilute your determination by being negative. When you keep your goals focused and clear cut, the task at hand gets simplified, and when you stay positive in your expectations, your energies are that much more powerful. The good news about keeping thought processes simple is that your own resolve becomes the engine that drives you, and this is the best way to harness your powerful inner chi. 5. Identify Your Income Sources So many people come to me with business ideas that describe their vision and dreams – and they paint a rosy picture of how they will set up their business and yet when I ask them “so what’s the source of your immediate income” they look blankly at me. Remember that all ideas are good, but very few have the potential to be successful simply because the source of income has either not been thought through or the people behind the business is depending on some Government handouts, or on “friends”, or upon a single source that might well dry up. When a business cannot generate its own sources of income, then it is not a business. It is simply a project. Viable businesses always have the ability to generate its own source of incomes and to fill a market need. 6. Draw a Decision Tree I learnt to draw decision trees at the Harvard Business School way back when. It’s been over twenty-five years since I studied in that august institution and I am still using those wonderful trees. They are like mind maps except these decision trees also contain what I think are the outcomes of decisions. One decision leads to other decisions and in drawing a decision tree, every branch keeps getting split into smaller and smaller branches. The process of drawing a tree forces you to engage your mind to think ahead, to not stop at each decision. This is because every decision always leads to another decision, and another and another. E.g. if you make a decision tree on whether to rent or to buy your office premises… if you decide to buy, you need to decide where, how big, use your own capital or borrow, if borrow, how much to borrow, from which bank, and then you need to think of the outcomes… will you be successful at finding the right location, at getting a bank to lend you money, and so on. Your decision trees can be as simple or as complicated as you wish… but simply thinking about it sets you thinking in the right direction, which is to think ahead. 7. Keep Your Spirits High The secret of success lies in constantly rejoicing and keeping your spirits high. This requires real effort but once mastered, it becomes a precious skill indeed. Rejoice at every triumph but also learn to meet every setback with a smile of acceptance – and view it as a signal to change course a little. When bad things happen, you can actually feel happy that a piece of bad karma has ripened and has therefore dissolved. Its gone, passed on. And when something good happens, also rejoice, because it means some good karma has ripened. Just remember to create more good karma by doing something nice for someone or donating something to a worthwhile charity. When you look at your life this way, how can any year be a bad year? 8. Go Global in Your Search for Markets A successful business can be built on just about any skill, product or service and sold to just about any market. The key is to find the market or markets, and this means finding new ways of reaching the marketplace – either via repackaging an old product, finding a new way of marketing a service, or generating new needs in consumers in different markets. In the past many successful businesses were built simply on the basis of imperfect markets and imperfect information. Today, the marketplace is very near perfect indeed. Information flows across the globe almost instantly via satellite and via the internet. This is the age of global communications and those of you who are clever will use the new technologies to help you go global in your search for markets. Make big allowances for the differences of markets, but go after them nevertheless. 9. Be a Niche Player If your business is built around your passion for a sport, a hobby, or a past time, you might want to read up all about niche marketing. Some large businesses have been built this way, where the focus of all the company’s promotion efforts are directed at trade magazines and at specific outlets. Niche businesses are highly focused on a specific customer base. A lot of business can come your way when you learn to surf the Internet. Use the powerful search engines to bring you into the households of new customers. 10. Take a Fresh Approach Each New Year At the start of every new year, I look at all the projects I have on hand and ask myself “What fresh approach can I bring to what I do? Is there anything I can do to make what I sell more attractive?” It is the process of thinking that stimulates the creativity within me, keeping me on my toes and preventing me from coming across tired and ancient. Keep your eyes open each new season. Look at everything innovative coming out during the year. Derive ideas from groundbreaking trends in colours, shapes and materials. Go in search of new-fangled products, pioneering inventions and the latest strategies. Pick out the more promising of the new trends and transform them to fit into your world. This is not an easy exercise but it gets easier with practice. Remember that all the most successful superstars constantly reinvent and repackage themselves… like Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Pavarotti… all the designer names and car brands have to keep a step ahead of the competition by coming out with a brand new models. So to stay ahead, be leader. If all you do is copy the leader, you will get left behind. 11. Build a Team Never try to do anything completely on your own. No man is an island. Whatever business you are in, set about the task of building a trustworthy team. Make this your major priority. Invest time, effort and money in creating a team you can rely on. Remember that in any venture, having responsible people around you is more important than having clever people. There is no need for everyone to be clever, but there is a need for everyone to be reliable. A core group of lieutenants does not get built immediately. It takes time. And in the initial years, I strongly recommend to go for the flat organization chart as much as you can. This way, every member of your team has access to you. 12. Make Clever Choices If you want to succeed in business, do be discerning about the choices you make. An excellent way to decide is to generate what business schools refer to as trade-offs. Ask yourself what you will be giving up when choosing a particular alternative. Making choices are usually governed by many factors and it is never easy to choose between options, but if you list out to yourself what you will be foregoing when you choose a specific course of action, you will instantly find it easier to decide. Tradeoffs usually make you choose between long and short-term solutions and between different people’s opinions. Choices may not always be good and correct at the same time. The key is to weigh things carefully in your mind and then be decisive. 13. Get Internet Savvy There is no alternative for those who want to grow and make money in the business world – you absolutely must get Internet savvy – if you do not you will simply get left behind. You will become uncompetitive and you will lose out. In the last ten years, technological breakthroughs in cyber space have advanced so much that the entire world’s households and especially the buying public are all hooked up. If you have not yet signed up for surfing facilities, do so immediately. Invest in a website. Get technical in all your operational and logistics needs. Today, there is an incredible amount of software that makes the operational and administrative side of doing business extremely easy. If you are the owner of your business, sign up for a course that gives you some basics in computer usage. Learn to surf, search, download and install programs. 14. Improvise – Change As You Go If truth be known, there really is no cook book approach to successfully managing a business. It’s not like we can have a foolproof recipe for success every time. No indeed. Successful managing of any business always requires the person holding the ropes to improvise, to change direction, to go off course albeit temporarily. This enables the business to overcome sudden obstacles and unexpected hindrances. These are the dynamics of being successful and here is where luck comes in. In a year when the chi energy works in favour of success, the cards are not so difficult to play. The year 2006 is indeed such a year. This is why this is such a great year to be brave, try new strategies and take some risks. In a year when the chi energy is not as conducive to business, it is better to lie low. 15. Create a New Angle One way of keeping your business fresh and up to date is to work at creating a new angle and remember it’s the story that makes the angle. This means looking at the same thing from a fresh perspective, creating a totally new package from another point of view. There are many facets to almost every aspect of a product or business and the challenge to the entrepreneur is to stay constantly revitalized by offering yet another fresh outlook. You can see that even in the movie world, old hits get new treatments and become hits once again. There have been so many successful remakes that it really gives us encouragement to try applying the same strategy to our own business. This simply means looking at our same old product and giving it a new twist by adding or changing the “look”. 16. Be Adventurous Successful business people usually have a sense of adventure and what this means is to have an attitude that is receptive to new things and new phenomena. An attitude of courage is important because only the courageous have the vision to see and try new things. Implicit in being an entrepreneur is this sense of adventure – to boldly experiment with the unfamiliar, to do something in a non-traditional way and to occasionally go against the grain of conventional wisdom. When you are adventurous, you must guard against having too high expectations. In fact, it is a good idea not to have any expectations at all. Just keep an open mind and go with the flow. 17. Make Every Day A Happy Day Make every day a happy day. Do this by making someone happy each and every day. It is easy. A smile does it every time. A nice email sent to someone. Practising patience. Responding nicely to a customer or a salesgirl. Patting your dog, feeding your fish, giving someone a shoulder. You may not see the connection between being a success and being happy, but chi energy plays a large part in the success equation, and happiness chi is almost always more powerful in attracting success than negative chi. The next time someone causes you to raise your voice, watch your mood swing from stability to instability and you will know what I mean. 18. What’s Your Killer Talent? We all have it. Yes, that amazing skill at doing something really well – the challenge is to discover it young enough for you to develop your skill and nurture it so you can later turn it into something of a life passion. Because what you are good at will almost always be something you adore doing. It can be a sport – golf, tennis, riding – and if it is, you can well become a celebrity sports star. That’s a business that seems to be the most lucrative these days. Or you might have a talent at some performing art – singing, dancing, acting – whatever your killer talent, don’t spurn it. Identify what you are really good at doing, study every aspect, nuance and angle of all the related industry areas that are connected with your skill, and then build a business around it. In every sport, hobby and past-time lies a whole range of businesses that can be developed. The chances of success are also that much higher when you enjoy what you are doing. 19. Salute Your Heroes For many years I found incredible inspiration from reading books authored either as self help books or as autobiographies written by the likes of corporate heroes such as Jack Welch, Warren Buffet, Bill Gates, Donald Trump – there were so many helpful anecdotes, tips and experiences in these books and they did so much to fuel my determination that for years I followed their careers. I still do. These are not perfect icons of management expertise, but the problems and strategies they dealt with were real and although what I did was on a much smaller scale, nevertheless I could identify with them. Go in search of your business idols and use them as your inspirational icons. Let their success spur you on to yours. 20. Make A Wish List To stay focused about your goals and aspirations, try making a wish list. You can be as outrageous as you like because your wish list is for your eyes only. When you write down your wishes, you are giving important energy to your innermost desires and something magical almost always happens. Keep your wish list inside a special silver or gold box or better yet, inside a wish-fulfilling wheel that you spin constantly to activate it with powerful energy. I have been making my wish list for over thirty years. Mine are kept inside my library of personal notebooks, which are in turn kept in a very special chest. Yes, I invest plenty of energy on my wishes - and my focused concentration is what makes my wishes come true.

If you'd like to expand your good fortune, place a healthy plant in the far left corner of your home, and then seal the deal by placing three shiny coins beneath the pot. There's no better way to boost your financial luck. Housing your plant in a blue pot will cultivate your fortune even further. Reach for the sky Tall, columnar shapes lift your spirits, thanks to their ability to draw energy upward. If you feel pessimistic about your prospects, place some tall bookcases, vertical artwork and high backed chairs throughout your living space. Displaying your paintings a little higher than eye level can also improve your fortune. How green is your valley? Feng Shui practitioners have often associated the color green with luck, because it represents upward movement. If you want to reach your full potential, surround yourself with this lucky color. Use pale green to make a fresh start, leaf green to continue moving in a good direction and dark green to bring projects to maturity. Knock on wood Items made of wood can attract good fortune. That's because they embody nature's growth potential. Replacing synthetic materials and metals with wood can make a tremendous difference to your prospects. Even the addition of bamboo window shades, reed rugs and wicker chairs can increase your luck. Win stars for stripes Striped patterns are lucky because they move energy along smoothly and efficiently. Vertical stripes are particularly auspicious because they connect heaven and earth. The next time you need an added dose of luck, wear a striped sweater or scarf. Even a pair of corduroy pants can do the trick! Three coins in a fountain Fountains are one of the favorite tools of Feng Shui practitioners to get luck flowing. Placing a fountain near the front entrance of your home can be especially helpful in promoting career luck. Make sure the water in your fountain is always fresh and plentiful. If your fountain runs dry, your luck will behave accordingly. For an extra boost of luck, place three shiny coins in the fountain, but not under it. Go fish The gentle, undulating movement of goldfish can stimulate your luck. Ideally, your aquarium should sit in one of three places: the front entrance, the far left corner or the center portion of the left side of your home. Placing eight black fish and one gold fish in the tank can promote great happiness and well-being. This is a particularly powerful cure if you're having difficulty pursuing your life path. Find a house guardian If you're experiencing an unusual run of bad luck, choose a house guardian. A house guardian is a statue that sits just outside your entrance. Your guardian shouldn't block your entrance. Rather, it should be angled slightly to the right or left of your front door. Choose a statue that has deep personal meaning for you. Dragons afford physical protection, tortoises fend off career upsets, frogs shield your wealth, cats defend against emotional upheavals and dogs ward off enemies. Help luck find you In the event luck has been elusive, check to see if your front entrance is well illuminated from the street. If it isn't, fortune may have difficulty finding you. Install a bright light over your door, and make sure it is in good working order. The sweet smell of success Fresh, green scents like grass, basil and cucumber can lift your spirits and make you more aware of the opportunities around you. Integrate these scents into your home with soaps, candles and aromatherapy oils. Edited November 3, 2016 by Ethan_Oleh keithong 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan_Oleh Posted November 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 (edited) Coins - Symbols of Power & Protection Coins made of standardized size and weight of a certain metallic material, stamped with identification marks or symbols, have been used throughout the ages as an easy-to-use physical item as a medium of exchange. These coins are generally issued by governments to facilitate trade within their borders. But more than just a tool for trade, coins have been used as symbols of power for the rulers in ancient times. As history has shown, once a new ruler comes into power, he would change the existing coins with new ones of his own design. Was this done with the advice of the soothsayers to further stamp his rule and longevity, or just to improve the ruler’s luck? Well, having a coin in your pocket with your king’s face on it… this will definitely remind both his subjects and foreigners about his rule.The Chinese have built in the symbol of the power of heaven over earth in their I-Ching coins, with the round shape representing heaven and the square shape representing earth. Central to that meaning is the name of the Emperor stamped on the coin, cementing his claim to being a divine ruler as chosen by the Gods. During the reign of the Emperor, he would also issue special authority coins stamped with symbols giving the mandate to the bearer to carry out the tasks required of him for his country and to keep him safe. This was especially the case when protective amulets were needed for men on the march to battle; they were made in the form of coins, as they were more durable than most other materials and were easy to carry around, and easily mass-produced. In modern times, we see that most of the monarchs have given way to democracy, and the coins in circulation are used to pay homage to the great leaders of the country, and in some countries, to improve the luck of the country as a whole. One very good example well-known within feng shui circles is Singapore’s use of auspicious symbols on its bank notes and coins to lift it out of economic difficulty in the 1980’s. They placed the image of the auspicious Dragon overlooking the harbor on their SGD50 note; and they used the Pa Kua symbol on the SGD1 coin for protection. The coins from the European Union (EU) also have some specific symbols designed into them. If you look at the coins today, mainly the Euro 1 and the Euro 2 coin, they contain many symbols, some good and some bad. First of all, as we know, each of the sovereign countries are allowed to mint their own coins, but they need to have a ring with the 12 stars representing the EU and the countries’ side of the coin has to be within the 12 stars. This represents the unity of the countries within the EU. Will this keep the EU together? Here I would like to bring your attention to the Euro 2 coin from Greece minted in 2002, with the image of Europa being kidnapped by the bull. This seems to have a bad connotation, like its wealth being kidnapped, and I do wonder if this has caused Greece’s current financial situation? When you are on your travels, do take note of the symbols on the coins as some of them can contain protective or auspicious symbols. Find out from the locals about the meanings of the symbols on the coins, and keep the ones that have good meaning. Coins are small and easy to carry; why not have some around if they bring you good luck. So if you can’t get hold of a proper amulet, carry some coins with auspicious symbols to help keep you protected and energized. But do filter out the bad ones; try to keep as little of them as you can!!! Edited November 14, 2016 by Ethan_Oleh keithong 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
