[...Dar was given a choice to choose between a Ferrari presented by Julian Mantle or Julian's choaching.
"You can have this Ferrari if you want it."
"Well, if you make the choice to take the car, I can no longer be your coach. It's either this car or my coaching"
The Choicepoint is all about: making some kind of a sacrifice. Nothing good comes without some kind of sacrifice. The Choicepoint is all about LEAVING THE WORLD YOU HAVE KNOWN AND VENTURING OUT ONTO THE UNKNOWN FRONTIERS OF YOUR HIGHEST LIFE. .....]
Having known the unknown, I wanted to thank my first boss, a person whom I was meant to meet at the right time. He just came to my life from no where.
I still remembered the first meeting with him, telling me that what I have learned in the university are mostly nonsense. Are you kidding? I had got my certificate from the National University of Malaysia in Dietetics field. But now what were you saying?
In fact, I love and hate listening to him. Love to know another side of everything in this world (which I have never had a chance to know before) but hate to know how ugly the world is. My head ache seriously every time I had conversation with him. However, I chose to listen. There must be some reasons behind what this old man was saying.
Knowing the unknown was a period of confusion and suffering. I am always a person who is hungry for knowledge and answers. It can be a very confusing time because when lots of new knowledge comes at the seeker in a short space of time, it is hard to assimilate it all. But, I understand that confusion always give rise to clarity over time.
I thank myself for choosing the right decision. Then, came the Transformation and Rebirth state which can be the most challenging stage but also one of the most unforgettable. How am I going to throw away the past and be with what I know now.
Just then, another stage came. "The Trial" "Before a seeker reaches her treasure, she will face a trial."
"The purpose of the trial is twofold: first to ensure that she has learned all the lessons she was meant to learn along the way and second, to see how badly she wants the prize. It is at this stage that most people give up."
I faced a few trials before I came to know myself. I was at my second job at a slimming center as a nutritionist. It is a very well known slimming center in Singapore. It was like hell there but there, I saw the real yet fake world. I could write a few pages about why I think so, but not now. I was given a choice to leave or stay. Leaving means $2400 = RM6000 gone ( I will have more after my 3 months probabation, that's a sure). I chose to leave. I hate to see people getting hurt. I hate to see human killing among themselves.
Then, I was like s soul strolling through places to find myself. It was a hard time but now I know why I need to do so. I worked at.........The Country Farm Organics........FPO.........before I found myself dead. I faced my big question. What is the purpose I come to this world. I was desperately upset at that time. In about a year time I jumped from a job to another to another and to another. I never want that but ..... I was speechless and helpless but deep inside my heart, I knew that I still had my freewill that I could listen to.
There is a saying, when all the doors are closed for you, another door will open. It's true. After months of waiting, choices dropped in front of me. Two jobs. I was intensely tested on these. I pitied my parents. I hope to be a good daughter to please them, to please the world but I could not. I could not betray myself for money. I hope to work decently to get my monthly salary and at the end of the month, I could give them some money to spend. That's what I wish as well. But unfortunately, they have an unconventional daughter who likes to be different.
It's now RM8000 or RM800.
Hey man, which one will you choose?
RM8000 for a pharmaceutical company, selling medicine (which is strongly against natural healing)
RM800 (teaching assistant at my hometown)
I ventured into another field, with slight fear, the teaching job. 'I guess at least this won't hurt people. But I know this is a transition period I need to undergo.' Of course I felt really disturbed with that salary. I was grateful to my family. They assisted me at that tough period.
In the examination hall, you won't be given an answer until the right time. Sometimes, I felt like giving up. But, it was not long I was tested. Opportunities flooded after that.
My life is slightly different, I wonder why. I never need to look for a job and it always comes its way:
The job that comes to my way from nowhere will stick but the job that I look for will go away. So, it's all Heaven's Will 天意。天意 exists in this world. Obey to the call. I have been on teaching job for almost 2 years. If you ask me, why teaching? 天意.
But, it's also because I tell the universe up there the criteria of the job that I want. First, I can earn a living. Second, my expertise must benefit a lot of human beings. So, the Universe helps me to find my destiny and brings my destiny to my doorstep. I am not bluffing. How it all work are miracles. Thank you my dear Universe.

When There Is A Will, There Is A Way
How true is the title?
If you have been struggling through certain circumstances, you know it's TRUE.
I have not written anything that I think can be published for more than a year. There are so many changes in my life that I haven't a quiet time to write it all out. In fact, I have lots of things that I want to say.
1 June 2012
That was a remarkable date. Months before that, I had been fired by my boss at FPO. I appreciate what I had learned there. Without Jayden and Rubben, I would not have understood myself better. Months and months before that, I have been working for 3 companies in a year time. It was all fated. I was destinied to meet all I was supposed to meet for better and for worse.
After being thrown out from the company, I stayed at home for a few months, struggling, until 1st June 2012 where I found the one, What life is all about.
Even though I can't say I know how to live my life at this moment but at least I have a compass in my hand now. What I am hoping is to share my compass with everyone I meet.
Years back, when anyone asked me, is there an extraordinary force that guides us in our life? I might be speechless. But now, I can confidently tell anyone out there in the world. YES! There's a great energy that controls the universe, that we have not given it a name, because we are unable to give it a name, so a few thousand years ago, LAO TZE simply named it as DAO~道.
These two years, I have been reading a lot of books in spiritual development. I am always interested to read books to make myself a better person. I read books from different religions but they cannot satisfy my questions in life until I have a chance to understand more about 一贯道。
What is 一贯道 all about? I need to think properly in order to write. There's nothing you can describe DAO. It's as simple as breathing.We cannot see the whole process of air going into the nostrils and coming out from the nostrils. However, the process exists.
"The simplest thing is sometimes the hardest thing to let people believe."
I am being hit hard on this before I came to an end as a dietician. What to eat? What's not to be eaten? There's only three words to the truth. BACK TO BASIC. Eat the most basic food that our ancestors eat. That's all. I was in university for 4 years in my dietetic course and learned all the nonsense, then I graduated and came to a conclusion that it's just back to basic, the concept we should hold. Other than this are all nonsense. But that's all what people love to listen, the fancy diet, the fancy stuffs.
Anyway, I am straying away form my topic, ....
A month after the date I went to Taiwan for a month. There, I met someone whom I think is important, in a way where this person had been using a way to persuade me in learning Chinese. It's strange how people can influence you, the one that you are going to meet in your life. There are many the ones of course that will slowly appear in a magical way. Never had anyone in my life could remove my fear and hatred towards Chinese. How I loath Chinese, the hardest language in the world ( it's all because of my fear).
Fear of learning = Fear of failure
I never thought of manage to get hold of this language. I never believe I could. The universe always give us a hint if we use our heart to feel.
Chopsticks represent Chinese culture. I never know and never want to learn the correct way of holding the chopsticks. I never in my life think of learning it. As long as I know how to eat with chopsticks, who cares the correct way of holding. Until this person taught me the way, I grabbed hold of the technique in just a few minutes time. I told myself, I must listen to this person.
I challenged myself. Within 5 months, I am able to read more 2000 Chinese words, from 10 to 20% of the Chinese words to 80%. It's like a dream. Deep in my heart as well, I want to prove and walk on the proverb, "When there is a will, there is a way". There's much wisdom in this but how many can see through all this?
