MANAGING CASH FLOW EFFECTIVELY

Dear friends,

How many of you have heard of the phrase "Cash is King"? I believe many of have. Why is cash King? This is because cash is the lifeblood of any company. It reflects the financial health of your business. The in and out of your cash flow will be the determining factor on how you manage your finances. If the inflow of money is not sufficient to cater for the needs of the business, it may somehow affect the viability of the company. Hence, cash flow is a key element of the success of any business. Without cash flow, the profits are meaningless. 

Some profitable business may even end up in bankruptcy or be wound up, should the amount of money flowing out is not comparative to the amount of money flowing in. Companies that has no good management of cash flow may not be able to make the investments necessary to compete, or may be forced to pay more in its loan activity.

Because of its crucial importance, I would like to share some tips with you on how to manage the cash flow effectively:

1. Make a projection of cash flow over a periodic of time.

Always determine how much the inflow before determining the future cash to be spent. Pay accordingly to the priority especially if there is a heavy penalty fee imposed should you not settle on or before its due date. Interest and overdue charges may be very expensive and this is an added expense for your business.

2. Cash collection needed to be reviewed and improved constantly.

To encourage your clients to pay on time or earlier is a wise move. Alternatively, you may request some down payments for ordered purchases, if applicable. Review and monitor receivables regularly and identify those that are about to become due.

3. Try not to pay debts earlier than due date even if there is cash available for you to do so, always on due date.

Establishing a good pay master  track record with your suppliers will help you  build goodwill for your company. This will assist you in obtaining more flexible and better payment terms and conditions.

4. You may make good use of the surplus funds at any period of time to earn some interest income by placing them into the money market. The quantum of interest income generated is very much dependent on the period of the available surplus fund and the interest regime at that particular time.

Therefore, it is very rewarding for anyone who is willing to work hard and smart to accomplish strong cash flow. To do so, you are required to analyze and manage your cash flow more effectively and fruitfully.

By now, you are able to see how cash flow will determine failure and success of any business. Sometimes one will have to a pay heavy price for just stretching the payment terms.

HOW SPECIAL YOU ARE TO ME

THE SELF-REFLECTION MANIFESTO

CLIFF YOUNG'S LEGEND - MARATHON

NEVER SAY NEVER

VERY WARM WELCOME TO THIS UPLIFTING BLOG.

I was born at only 2.5 kgs. But my nickname is Tua Tow in Hokkein, meaning BIG HEAD because my head was relatively bigger than my body size Tua Tow Tua Tow, sounds cute right?  But you can even call me Tua Tow Kay (big boss).


I began to work at 12 and discovered that Education is the only viable way for me to break off from poverty chain. Since then I strived to follow the foot steps of those successful people and noticed that some of their backgrounds are even worse than mine. If they can achieve success, why can't I?

I began by choosing to play the winning game like chess. I was the Captain who led my primary school in participating at the Majlis Sukan  Sekolah-sekolah Pulau Pinang under 12 Chess competitions in 1973. I achieved an excellent track record for the entire tournament event.

However, due to some unfortunate and unforeseen event, I could not progress further and since then I seldom play the game as it really hurts me.

I also needed to help my mum to sells lottery tickets to supplement our house's income . After my mother’s serious accident, I took over and maintained the business till a few months before my M.C.E. examination, which is SPM now.

I then painfully discontinued this small business to focus on my study, which she disagreed with in view of our tight financial situation, which I could understand. Luckily, many years later, she understood that I made the right decision.

Another blessing came when I obtained a Grade One in my M.C.E. But my joy was short lived because I could not obtain placing in Form 6 at government (public) school, despite many rounds of appeals. I even went to see our Penang Chief Minister, late Tun Lim Chong Eu, but he did not have time for me.

But I didn't despair nor give up. Through my good grades, I got a job as Laboratory Assistant assigned to World Health Organisation and Sumitomo projects. The late Professor from the Biology School, Universiti Sains Malaysia encouraged me immensely which sparked my desire to pursue my dream further.

At that time, I took LCCI intermediate book-keeping classes. Again, due to dire financial constraints, I opted to do self study and not attending night classes, which the teacher assured me that I would FAIL . But I passed the examination with my hard work and fortitude . I began to aspire to become an Accountant.

Anyone here love tiger prawns? Interestingly, prior to my LCCI exam, I also have another project of rearing tiger prawns with a friend. “So who says man can’t multitask ?”

From the professor's encouragement, I then persevered  to pursue my Form 6 in Private School with my earnings from my part time job.

But another battle began because all subjects were in Bahasa Malaysia and my year was the last batch for MCE where Science and Mathematics were in English . Determination and Staying focus helped me to overcome this challenges apart from having to give tuition to 4 school students 2-3 hours Everyday except Sunday. The fees I earned just barely covered all my school expenses and my monthly bike instalment. 

Without any income for about 3 months prior to my examination as I stopped giving tuition,  my only option was attending classes without paying school fees and being prepared to face whatsoever consequence.

Fortunately, my STPM result got me into a local university that we could only afford. I was so exultant because I made it at last after all the hassles and obstacles. 

From  my turbulent life history, I learnt that we dictate the path, nothing can stop us so long we don't give in and give up.We just need to be accountable, decisive, committed, audacious and stay focus as we stride along our life journey.

HOW TO ACHIEVE SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS GROWTH

A very warm welcome to this talk.

How many of you have difficulties in sustaining your business? Pause.

Everyone knows how easy it is to start a business. The REAL Challenge is to sustain it and making big profits.

Today I am going to share with you 4 Proven Tips on how to sustain business growth and make real profits.

To proceed further, I like to use this UNIQUE tea port to illustrate the following 4 points.

a) Design
b) Message
c) Trade Mark
d) Something New

 

Point 1. It is obviously clear that this tea pot was created for far more than its intended functions and features. Because its design is so Amazingly Beautiful, it makes it suitable to be as a decorative item after use.

This illustrates the point that we can't afford to ignore Design should we desire to sustain this business growth.

Again, Apple is using this Proven tip to create an ultra thin and wide screen for its iPhone to get its product noticed. Thus, it has successfully created and added value in the users' perspective.

Point 2. By incorporating a popular quotation at the surface of this pot, the people may connect it with the creator whenever they see the tea pot and hence have a high tendency to form a long lasting memory of the creator in their minds.

Therefore, the purpose of crafting a satisfying narrative is to get the message in sustaining this business.

In this connection, Apple is sending a clear message of simplicity as its identity seen consistently throughout all its products.

Point 3. The trade mark at the bottom of this pot, not only reflects the creator's identity in term of its specialty, uniqueness, and other talents, but also serves as an attractive power for people to unearth its underlying story.

Similar concept also has been employed by all the long successful corporations. Apple for instance, has been successful in creating an Impression of high quality for its products, apart from its simplicity as its identity.

Point 4. With the above smart strategies, its creator has indirectly enhance its new usage. This tea port is also used as a hedging tool against inflation amongst its collectors. Hence, it stays significantly relevant at all times and continuously enjoy long and lasting business growth over many centuries. In short, it is obviously creating not only new demand but remains a significant contributor in the global economy.

Such strategies employed by Apple for the introduction of its new products such as iPad, which is far more superior than iPhone and Laptop. Hence, it delivers SOMETHING that we do  NOT EVEN KNOW THAT we ARE MISSING by Combining email, internet browser and social network into something new.

With this, a new product is born by combining 3 devices into 1 device. I repeat, it is not 3 separate devices, but 1 device.

With the above 4 points, I am very sure that you will find them useful when you plan your future business to ensure that it can sustain the business and make REAL profit.

In conclusion, it is critically important to remember that starting business is very easy, the real challenge is how  we can sustain the business for the real long term profit.


With my 4 points explained earlier, you can use it wisely and diligently to ensure your success in sustaining any business of your choice. With this, I wish you all the best of luck.

Here, we also like to record our sincere thanks to the readers and visitors for your kind support and participation which made this event so exciting and fun.

From the feedback, we realised that it is a very tough decision to decide which bus stops to choose. They are all uniquely designed according to culture, preference and climate. All of them have their own beauty in their own way. As a result, it had very highly likely deterred many for not proceeding to vote at the end of the day. This has caused the prizes to be won to be more than the participants.

As the long awaited day finally arrived and after  due considerate thought, we decided to declare the following two participants to be winners for this event.

1. Foxydeltan, will receive the book of Maths Magic and Craft from Teoh Poh Yew.

2. Teoh Poh Yew will receive an Ecopy of Miss Delphine's thriller "ETA-Estimated Time of Arrest" to the winner!

REAL GIANTS IN GREECE

Real Giants in Greece (發現巨人骸骨)

The giants mentioned in the Bible have been discovered in Greece. These astounding photos are from a recent archaeological discovery in Greece ; This totally unexpected find furnishes proof of the existence of "Nephilim". Nephilim is the word used to describe the giants spoken of in biblical times by Enoch as well as the giant David fought against (Goliath). Note the incredible size of the skull... Gen 6:4 There were giants on earth in those days; Num 13:33 And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight. Just to show that the Bible is true with history lessons that are applicable both then and today and it is not just a spiritual book. !

IT IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT TO DEFINE YOUR'S LIFE PURPOSE

VERY WELCOME TO THIS UPLIFTING BLOG

To live life meaningfully and reap its greatest potential possible, we need to have a definite purpose that guides our ambitions, vision, and goals. Otherwise, we are just like the sailing boat without compass and do not know where we are heading to. Please give it a serious thought and define your life soonest possible.

What was the past is not important and what matters now is that each of us has specific talents and gifts that are uniquely built within us. For those who have truly discovered their REAL purpose, then we write to take this opportunity to congratulate you. In this connection, greatly appreciate if you could enlighten us on how you discover it. Thank you in advance for your kind action.

We strongly believe that we do not just pick up things we like doing by chance along our lives. What we are trying to say here is that we discovered what you are good at because we were meant to discover it. There is no coincidence, but rather that your legs are meant to walk instead of your hands. This is because it is created with that intent in the first place.

Therefore, it is appropriately right to say that your unique gifts are hardwired into your system just like the rest of your organs are assigned to function that particular blueprint integrated with the rest and function as a whole, so to speak.

Through these specific talents and gifts, you are able to define and determine your definite purpose as to why you are here, which you have been created for in the first place. What is in you that is distinctly different from another living human being. In fact, it is rarely possible that what you bring to the table has been duplicated since time began.

That is right! This “purpose” is a very serious business and that's why we bring this topic into today's discussion with the intention that you discover your real purpose if you have not done so. Otherwise, sad to say that everything else is wrong. We say so because it is just like working with a broken compass when you think you are heading North, but actually you are not. In short, if you are unsure which direction you are heading, you are just wandering aimlessly.

Without our purpose identified firmly in our mind, we will wander through life. We will not feel that we are “in the real flow, the way it supposed to be.” As such, it is imperative we recognize what it is that we are good at and what we really love and enjoy doing.

Our real purpose in this lifetime is to do the thing that we truly love, and not just to fulfill other's purpose which is not ours. As such, you are not to let non important issues distract your attention at all when you are sorting out your real purpose.

The truth is that you can earn money at anything through Resources, Ideas, Capital and Expertise. Once you have determined your purpose, you would not even have to think hard on how to earn money. This is because once you are doing what you love, you will be guided, as if, by an unseen hand, heading to the right direction and everything will just falls into place - Real and not imagined.

Therefore you must be cautious not to be mislead by the "truth" that the key to your life is to settle for the “safe” thing that will bring in money. But the real secured key, in fact, is to do what you really love. Fall in love with an idea or activity is begin to live actively. That is the breath of  life! That is the purpose of life.

Thanks and please direct your circle of friends to read this article should you find it useful to you. Thanks for your time and efforts.

AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL ISLAND

VERY WARM WELCOME TO THIS UPLIFTING BLOG

The above photo vividly illustrated the beauty of this island with a huge building at the peak, believe to be a tourist area, which we have no clue to its location. As such, we write to invite those who are familiar with this place to come forward to share with us more information on this island. The building appears inclined to the oriental type and more likely to be in the Asia Pacific.

Before I forget, please tell us the first thought that comes to your mind when you first see this picture. Are you willing to spend a couple of days to venture into this Island? The view looks like windows just below the building, there appears to be a huge resort with a magnificent view of the sea side. Sounds interesting and challenging, right? Tell us more what you can see from the above photo.

The island seems to have one huge building at the peak and may have some access roads from its bottom, which is very far above the sea level. It should be keep its dwellers safe from flooding. More information pending from the comments provided below, which we believe could bring the island to be more lively.

What we are not sure is how the access road is being monitored should the sea level rises above it. Or may be it is very unlikely event to happen. As such, we should rule out such possibilities. Currently, we do not have much information on the island and no clue about it and urge someone who has such information to step forward and share with us. Thanks for your kind action.

The island is served by the cable car from the other island situated next to it. This may strongly suggest that it is of a popular tourist area where it well connected with cable car to another island. This may not be surprise that it may not be far from the mainland. This is just our wild guess.

Look forward to receiving information from you and have a fruitful day.
