International Networking Week ~ 01 - 05 Feb 2010
By Jacklyn | February 3, 2010
International Networking Week is initiated by BNI (Business Network International). BNI is celebrating it with a Big Breakfast Meeting this Friday 5th Feb at Suntec City. I’m anticipating the event with excitement. After experiencing a huge turnout of 43 visitors last Friday at our Excellence Chapter, I’ve witnessed the power of networking and the effectiveness of word-of-mouth marketing!
Dr. Ivan Misner, the founder of BNI, has created this video that share about International Networking Week. He shared a story which I can relate to so much because I was trained for competition during my school days. That’s exactly the same complain I’m so familiar with, but ultimately… the glory that money cannot buy. I believe that until today, this same basic principle will apply if we want to be successful.
Thank you Dr. Ivan Misner for the reminder! A worth watching video…

A Tribute to Jim Rohn
By Jacklyn | December 6, 2009
On 5th December 2009, a great teacher and mentor to millions globally, Jim Rohn, has passed on. For more than a year, he fought bravely with Pulmonary Fibrosis. Jim Rohn inspired and empowered millions of lives through his life’s philosophies. His contribution to the personal development industry has definitely impacted many people’s life positively.
I emphasize greatly on a person’s personal development, and I’m grateful to Jim Rohn’s teachings throughout these years. Personally, I share many of his teachings through his seminars, books, cds and dvds to my team. Some of my favourites are “The Art of Exceptional Living”, “The Weekend Event - Excelling in the New Millennium”, “Seasons of Life”, “12 Pillars of Success”, “Building your Network Marketing Business”, ….
He inspired me to live a life with great purpose and his teachings gave me insights into life’s meaning. I aspire to live like him… even when he’s gone today, his legacy will remain forever..
A tribute video was recorded earlier this year. You can read more about Jim Rohn and watch the tribute video @ http://JimRohn.com
“I wish for you a life of wealth, health and happiness; a life in which you give to yourself the gift of patience, the virtue of reason, the value of knowledge, and the influence of faith in your own ability ot dream about and achieve worthy rewards.” ~ Jim Rohn

The Dash
By Jacklyn | November 28, 2009
I read of a man who stood to speak
at the funeral of a friend
He referred to the dates on her tombstone
from the beginning…. to the end.
He noted that first came the date of her birth
and spoke of the following date with tears,
but he said what mattered most of all….
was the dash between those years.
For that dash represents all the time
that she spent alive on earth
and now only those who loved her
know what that little line is worth.
For it matters not, how much we own,
the cars… the house… the cash.
What matters is how we live and love
and how spend our dash.
So think about this long and hard;
are there things you’d like to change?
For you never know how much time is left
that can still be rearranged.
If we could just slow down enough
to consider what’s true and real
and always try to understand
the way other people feel.
And be less quick to anger
And show appreciation more
And love the people in our lives
Like we’ve never loved before.
If we treat each other with respect
and more often wear a smile…
remembering that this special dash
might only last a little while
So when your eulogy is being read
with your life’s actions to rehash,
would you be proud of the things they say
about how you spent your dash?
——— ~ ———
How will you spend your Dash???

That’s What Friends Are For ~ Dionne Warwick & …
By Jacklyn | November 27, 2009
And I never thought I’d feel this way
And as far as I’m concerned
I’m glad I got the chance to say
That I do believe I love you
And if I should ever go away
Well, then close your eyes and try to feel
The way we do today
And then if you can remember
Keep smiling, keep shining’
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That’s what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I’ll be on your side forever more
That’s what friends are for
Well, you came and opened me
And now there’s so much more I see
And so by the way I thank you
Whoa, and then for the times when we’re apart
Well, then close your eyes and know
These words are comin’ from my heart
And then if you can remember, oh
Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That’s what friends are for
In good times, in bad times
I’ll be on your side forever more
Oh, that’s what friends are for
Whoa… oh… oh… keep smiling, keep shining’
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That’s what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I’ll be on your side forever more
That’s what friends are for
Keep smiling, keep shining’
Knowing you can always count on me, oh, for sure
‘Cause I tell you that’s what friends are for
For good times and for bad times
I’ll be on your side forever more
That’s what friends are for (That’s what friends are for)
On me, for sure
That’s what friends are for
Keep smiling, keep shining ….
