I plucked this out from one of the Jim Rohn famous quote ‘ The birds going to have some’. What’s this exactly means? Well, often enough in life, whatever you do, there will always be obstacles lying ahead waiting to get into your way.
That’s why, when Jim told about the sowing and reaping story, he will not be missing this term. When we sow, often enough hurdles are beckoning. The first of all, we must always know that ‘The birds are going to have some’. Those seeds before it’s even settled, the birds will get some.
Jim continues his stories about how John went missing in the first meeting. So, the birds got him. Then he will tell about the 2nd hurdle, it’s about the seeds fall onto shallow ground. And the hot day caused the plant withers. Next, when the plant found it’s way to grow, the thorns choked it to death… only then… the remaining plants finally made it.
The moral of the story is, you gotta prepare for the obstacles. But Jim also said that, some of the things you have no control over, just apply the rule , for the more seeds you sow, the more of it will make it through.
I have just come to know that Jim Rohn (the great motivational master) had passed away on 5th of Dec 2009 and I’m really sad to hear this news. I am really a great admirer of this guy as I started to learn from him to become a better man.
I listen to his motivational talk and speeches when I drive everyday, and I never get bored because he is such a humor, his voice is clear and ideas are easy to digest.
I always on the lookout for his quotes and seminars because he is really the best. I’m going to miss him, I send all my prayers to him for his safe journey in another world..
Although I am still not achieving my big dream yet, but he kicked my ass to move and take action. When I am down and result not going my way, or when I feel dejected and demoralized, I will listen to his inspirational words.
I can’t thank him enough for the precious lessons. May legendary master Jim Rohn RIP..

The previous mentioned that my son is my motivation and inspiration. Here is the person that I want to put into this post that will trigger me and always remind me that I must carry on and must not give up, because I won’t let him down.
My Son with his gun
My son with his psp
I want to have reason in life to push me to the edge to perform to the peak. And my son provides me the fuel to carry on. I have achieved my goals that were made since I was in secondary school. Never did I know that it hurts me.
How can achieving the goals actually hurt me? I was once heard from T Harv Eker saying, ‘It’s not the goal we set is too high to achieve, it’s the goal we set was too low’. I guess there is a certain truth in it.
I was from a very poor family. My father was not having a stable jobs. He was moving from 1 job to another because the companies he work was not stable. He went to neighbouring country to try his luck, but was sent back.
We moved to many places because of my father was working in another states. Siblings were separated, some to the north, some to the south.
So, naturally my goals was small which I had set since secondary school. It was having my own house, my own car and decent stable job and a happy family. I have achieved all those goals couple of years ago. I think about 5 years ago.
After I have achieved these low goals I was contented and life was hanging in mid air. I’m not poor nor rich. So what next? Until I realised it last year, that I want to do something with my life. Make it a second episode or chapter of my life. But I did not found the motivation and the inspiration to do it.
I was lucky to stumble upon some of the best motivational guys that really push me to at least make a change and set a higher target for me and my family. I’m really motivated by Jim Rohn, Tony Robbins, T Harv Eker, Zig ZIglar, Bob Proctor and many more.
Today, I was listening to Anthony Robbins interviewing Jeff Walker in Money Masters. Amazing stuffs, it really moved me. But what touched me the most was last night. My son gave me the most touching inspiration and motivation to push to the limit.
I was asking my 4 year old son to sleep, I said it’s late. He asked me ‘Is it you want to work?’ Is it you want to achieve 1 million? You will buy me the …….. It’s my son knowing that I need to work hard so he doesn’t want to disturb me.
I know, I don’t want to let me son down. I know I will not let him down. It’s a tall asking, it’s really not easy to achieve the millionaire status. But my son gave me every reasons to go for it.
