As we are on the 30th day of RMO, our team at @ownerscircleasia have officially completed the 3rd day of our 3 days Crisis Innovation Strategy Masterclass. At the end of my session, I can't help but to breakdown... I was reminded of the crisis I had to go through 5 years back. And that few years of hell.... When my parents called and asked, "How are you?" I would reply, "I'm okay." But deep inside.. I wasn't OK at all. The brave front I had to hold on to. The guilt I lived with because I felt like screwed up. Yet I can't figure out what went wrong. When friends started pointing fingers as if you're a criminal because your business has failed. When you even feel hesitant to check your Maybank2u account.. because you know that the lack of money will demoralise you further. The inconvenient truth... It's really not easy to be a leader. It's tough to be a business owner. And the worst thing is... Everyone thought that you're making good money. But the fact is.. you often have to pay everyone first. And you get paid the last. The past 30 days has been really tough. To make the decision to drop everything completely and make a 100% pivot. But today as we completed our 3 days Masterclass, I now realise why have I been working do freaking hard the past 4 weeks. I finally realised why until the end of my Masterclass. That's because... I went through hell.. shame.. and blame... And I wish for no business owners to go through the shit I did. As I completed this Masterclass, I've learnt something myself today. That pain that I had to go through has now became a gift. It was a pain that's necessary. Without that pain, I'll never have learnt empathy and humility. And to remember that just like every crisis... Pain is temporary. But it's how you fight the crisis that moulds you to hero you'll become. And that's a lesson you'll live on for eternity. #crisisinnovationstrategy #crisisignitesinnovation #entrepreneurship

Self love. I cannot stress the importance of this. It is the most important kind of love anyone can have. We always hear things like, “before loving someone we first need to love ourselves”. Well, like it or not, that's true. It's the same as the empty cup theory. If you are empty you can't give anything to anyone. You need to love and respect yourself. Tis’ a skill to master and when you do, nobody can ever come in between you and your life. Well, at least that's what I have learnt. Being self aware is the very first step. You need to have a very good understanding about how you work, what your strengths and flaws are. Once you master this, nobody can come at you and demean, demoralise, demotivate and shake you from your chosen path in life. Many people have asked me to live the way they want me to live and when I chose a different path, I was mocked,  misunderstood and shut down for standing up for myself. However, I know what I have gone through. I know how much I have grown. I know how much I have suffered. I know what are my strengths and I know what are my flaws. The thing is, other people don’t. They are so hell-bent on making me change my decisions and tried their best to but to no avail. Because I know myself. I had faith in myself and my visions and I love myself. Because I decided not to give my power away. Remember, nobody has power over you unless you give it to them. The point of this post is to encourage anyone who is battling from self love and self worth to become your own pillar without depending on anyone. However, note that I am not saying we don't need anyone in our lives. We do but we must also know how to be on our own when there is no one. When there is no one by your side, yet you still shine. Self love is not selfishness and arrogance. It’s genuine acceptance of yourself and independence. ... "Small minds cannot comprehend big spirits. To be great, you have to be willing to be mocked, hated and misunderstood." ... Stay strong. ❤️

"Never give up." #Repost @afiq.saif ・・・ Bodybuilding has actually turned me into a better person than any other things i've tried in my entire 26years of living. Yes i'm not that old and i'm not that young. But i believe that i've been trying to be the best in what i do in the eyes of myself and my important ones. Some said that injuries may make u depress and quit. But for me injuries are the reason for me to comeback stronger. That is PASSION. I may be not a champion. But in my eyes i am a champion. Yes my injury is not that worse comparing to other people. But i've seen my friend @harizonramliofficial come back from a life and death situation which made me respect him. When u do bodybuilding, when injury occurs the first thing on your mind would be 'there goes my body' so I'm giving this as a motivation to any one of my followers who always think that excuses will create a better path for you whilst actually it will depress and demoralise you. HAPPY SUNDAY BUMDAY! #speechtherapy #recovery #aesthetic #comebackstronger #bodybuildingmotivation
