SOCIALPRENUERS - BENEFITS

 


WELCOME AGAIN TO THIS UPLIFTING AND INSPIRING BLOG.

As you guys are well aware that I am a socialprenuer, but some of you may not know why I decided to become one. Today, I' decided to make it clear to you with the hope that it may inspire you to join us in this entrepreneurship sphere. The key significant points listed below are for your reading pleasure. Better still, if you could join us to form a bigger task force to reach out to a bigger magnitude of people so that they too can have their TIME FREEDOM to do what they want to do in their lives. I must say that this is very crucial for us to live our lives freely yet significantly meaningful way if we wish to achieve success more significantly.

By doing so, you are able to stretch your life to its maximum potential. Here, I must say everyone can do it, provided he believes in it and commits to it. So many books, articles and public speeches have been saying the same thing over and over again, present, past and future I strongly believe so.

Please permit me to say further that once you believe in it, you will allow your mind set to think creatively and attract means to make it happens. I must admit that I have accidentally prescribed to these powerful tools in my past to achieve things which could not be otherwise possible. As such, I must say that believing something paves the way for creative solutions. In a nutshell, once you believe, your mind finds ways to overcome challenges so to speak. I share with you because I feel a moral obligation to do so and to repay those who have helped me.


Likewise, I have mentioned in the past and would not mind to repeat that to do what you want, you need to create two main sources of income i.e. both passive and passion income. The former source is refer to income you received through your money making machine you have created much earlier namely rental, dividend and business income, royalty from your inventions. Whereas the latter is derive from your passion such as something you like to do regardless whether you are paid or not. It may be something out of your hobbies, talents, expertise and skills.

Socialprenuer is another venture you may seriously consider and I believe you surely have something to share with people in the hope of helping them to do what they like. You may like to be a public speaker, trainer or coach so as to guide people to discover their talents and dreams just like I am doing.

Be mindful that we are heading into the era of entrepreneurs declared by renowned Millionaires Author, Mr. Gerry Robert from one of the workshop I have just attended recently. In view of the global financial crisis, many people will be thrown out from their employment. Especially those have one source of income, they are not only affected should they be phased out from their employment, which is not of their choice at times. But they still have their loved ones to feed. As such, we encourage you to join force with us to reach out more people to discover their talents and tap their talents to do something they like and at the same time enable them to feed thousands or millions of their offspring. By doing so, we not only enhance their lifestyle, but also ours so to speak. This is in line with the natural law of working together to achieve more by doing less. I hope you could see the logic behind it.

By joining forces, we can even to do it in a BIGGER way by thinking BIG and enjoying the magic of thinking Big for all parties. Once we benefit it in such a manner, we can give in a bigger manner as it grows. Naturally, the more we give, the more we receive. Through this chain of reaction, more and more magnitude of people will receive its benefits. Ultimately the sustainable business growth is viable and now is very much dependent on the creative ways we employ to beat the global business depression cycle.

In short, sustainable business growth is not a myth, but is real so long as we believe in it and constantly seek creative ways to turn it into a reality. Before I end, I would like to throw the ball to your court and please forward us your ideas or thoughts should any or you are keen to join force, in the form of collaboration, joint venture or any other manner, then drop us a line through comment provided below or contact us directly.


Thank you for your time and effort to read this inspiring article. Please direct your circle of friends to this blog if you find it helpful. Thank you again in advance.


There is nothing impossible if we are willing to stay united and work together for our betterment.

FACELIFT FOR PENANG ANTI-JAPANESE WAR MEMORIAL




 Very warm welcome to this Uplifting Blog.

I am deeply delighted to report with the latest development on RM 400,000 face lift for Penang Anti-Japanese War Memorial, which was published in the Star dated Oct 21, 2011. This facelift is carried out in conjunction with its 60th Anniversary and the said work was expected to be completed by Nov 2011 and the photo will be uploaded at the later date.

This memorial was originally built by the Penang China Relief Fund, a Penang-based fund-raising organisation, in memory of the Penang Chinese who died under Japanese occupation in World War II. To have the entire picture of this movement, please pay a visit at Dr Sun Yat-Sen Museum at recorded in our preceding article at the link below.

http://liftyouup.blogspot.com/2011/09/penang-philomathic-union-society-sun.html

Sad to say that the said organisation was disbanded in 1952, the responsibility of managing the memorial was then passed on to the Kong Min School board of trustees.

The whitewashed obelisk stand proudly for more than a few decades, commemorates the almost 800 people who are buried nearby. They are comprised of martyrs who joined the anti-Japanese resistance movement in China during 1930 to 1940 as well as the victims of Japanese atrocities during the occupation.

It is worthy to note that three (3) features would be added to the memorial to enhance its historical value and tourist appeal, in addition to give honour those who have scarified their lives for this noble movement. The two additional display panels would be installed at the entrance to the monument with inscriptions introducing the monument in Malay, English, Chinese and Japanese.

What is more important of this memorial is it reminds us of the painful lessons of the war so that if we were not will now be aware of its importance to preserve peace and harmony in the world. As such, we must be cautious not to be manipulated by irresponsible leaders to kill our peers.

Through this, we at Lift You Up, like to ensure sustainable world peace, we must always advocate "love is colourless." Be mindful of the rule that division through colour is an act undermining the Divine Law, which is of the higher law.

Thank you for your time and efforts for reading this article. So let us stay united and work towards sustainable peace and harmony for the whole world.

FAMILY TREE OF OUR FOUNDER



FAMILY ROOT OF OUR FOUNDER
Very warm welcome to this Uplifting blog,

It is a very good practice to put on record, the family roots of our founder. In this connection, please permit our founder to take this opportunity to record his family roots while he is still around, with the objective to complete as much as possible during his life. He will update you should he obtained any additional information on this. He always welcome anyone who possesses any of his family's information and encourage the person to either contact him or provide in the comment below for him to complete his mission. He may take his mission to China to trace back his ancestors.
                      His Grand father and Grand Mother

His Grand father, from his father's side, Oh Kong Sze, and his father are the first generation who migrated to South East Asia to find their fortune. They are from the Province of Nan Aun, the Hokkien Province of China. His grand father died of cancer in November 1961, not long after the founder's birth. He was a merchant, who left behind few leased properties for his grand mother to survive by collecting rental income to sustain her remaining life after his death. His grandfather had carried out a business venture in Penang.

My grand mother is a CHINESE "BOUND FEET LADY" ( see the picture below for details)






His grand mother was also from China. Both his grand parents brought two of their children to Penang whereas the other son, somehow landed in Indonesia. They had managed to locate him after more than a decade of efforts and time finding his whereabouts.


                                      His uncle and auntie

His father migrated to Penang as a teenager and he does not know his actual age and his age was manipulated in order to obtain the necessary traveling documents to migrate out from China to Malaysia. He was involved in various trades and passed away in 2002 at the age of slightly more than 70 young in 2002.

Append below please find the memorial advertisement we put up at his  anniversary for your viewing pleasure.




His mother born in Penang and was given away to her adopted parents after birth. However, she managed to trace back her biological parents after her adopted mother passed away. Her biological mother survived and nearly surpassed 100 years, had passed away about a decade ago. Append below is her death certificate for record purpose. 


Though both his parents are illiterate, one thing they are proud of is the fact that five out of seven children received first degrees from public universities. The highest record of achievement in his dwelling place in Penang. Today, 5 out of seven have migrated to Selangor to earn their living at the time of writing, leaving behind his eldest and second youngest brothers in Penang.

His eldest brother began work at the age of below 13 years old, dropped out from the school, to supplement and support our family at that time. He is blessed with the most number of children, 3 daughters and two sons, amongst his siblings.

Followed by his elder sister who is blessed with one son and two daughters. Two of her children are in England, one working whereas her daughter is studying in one of the universities in UK.

Our founder is blessed with two sons and one daughter. Currently all of them are in the private school and college. He hope that one of his children will take over to maintain this blog one day for the rest of his descendants and the whole world at large.

His younger brother blessed with one son and one daughter. Both are currently studying in the public secondary schools.

Another younger brother is blessed with one son of less than a year old.

The other brother younger than the one before him is still single whereas his youngest brother is married but has no child yet.

That's all for the time being and this article will be updated should there be any new development.

CHINESE "BOUND FEET LADIES"

For centuries, girls in China had their feet wrapped and bound to be only 3 inches long. Having "bound feet" was a status symbol, and helped women marry into money.Millions of Chinese women would undergo "foot-binding" so that their feet would look like "three-inch golden lotuses". This process would normally start at a young age, when girls' feet were still soft enough to warp into a small shape. The process was very painful; it took many years for bound feet to achieve the desired "lotus" shape, and it severely restricted the women's ability to walk for the rest of their lives.

THANK GOD FOR SAVING MY MOTHER'S LIFE AGAIN



Very welcome to this Christian blog which give honours to Him.

I write to share with you another testimony to honour Him again for answering my and others' prayers for saving my mother's life about a week ago.



This time, He has again answered my calls for letting my mother to be discharge from the hospital after her admission for a short span of two days despite her being unconscious from an overnight sleep. Fortunately, my younger brother, who was staying with her in Penang at that time, noticed something amiss after he failed to wake her up numerous attempts. Immediately, he called the ambulance to take her to the hospital. They then discovered that her sugar content level of 1.7 was far too low for a diabetic patient like her. As a result, most of her body turned numb and stiff. Thank God for my brother's awareness at that critical moment.

Thereafter she finds it difficult and hesitates to stay with me or my other siblings in Kuala Lumpur as she does not have friends here. At the same time, her present health situation does not warrant her to stay alone. As such, I have to rely on Him to convince her to change her mind, knowing her firm stand and belief of being independent. Thank God again for turning this nearly impossible thing to a reality with ease. That makes me cry out with joys in my heart. 

My mum had scarified lots for us and I still remembered how she told white lies to make me finish the "Big Pau", meat Bun,  she bought for me with the extra money we both earned from our daily lottery tickets sales during my teenage years. At the very first time I was so glad and finish off the whole "Pau" and accept her word on the surface that she had taken her portion, which was not really the case. I learned my mistake from the first very first time and start to think hard of a way to outsmart her. Finally, I was successful in making up excuses to keep a portion for her. At that time, I began to cultivate a thinking habit and creative manner to leave a certain portion for her. Thank God for putting I in such a wonderful situation to pick up all these good habits and best practices that make me achieved what I am today. I felt very blessed after this MIGHTY and LOVING God revealed to me one by one. 

It took me nearly several decades to find Him exactly as recorded in the Scripture, You seek and you will find. I must admit my life had ups and downs since I was born namely born under weight of only 4.4 Lbs, always sick during my childhood, and etc. Now, Lord has revealed to me that all these had moulded me to be better and stronger. He also made me realise that the more I submit to Him, the more He will lead me and go through the setbacks without much pain. Now, I am so comfortable with Him and even let Him to use me as one of His vessels to spread His Word, which I could not do so, without Him. I believe and am convinced that I'm not doing this alone.  

I really feel that He is the One who has set me free and gives me the wisdom to do what I am doing. The peace, joys and happiness I received are from Him and I feel so secured despite my age is increasing. Yet the strength He has given me is so great that I feel very energised and tireless. I must say He is keeping and maintaining me well and I am very grateful to Him. In short, He has convinced and convicted my heart to submit to Him and let Him lead me. Thank you Lord. I share all these with you because of Him whom made me realised the true meaning of the life He has given to me.

Here, I write to praise Him always and stay focus on Him to complete my walk by faith and not by sight. The sweetness of the fruit I enjoyed all these while is from Him, which is far beyond words. As such I encourage you to join in the walk because I want you to taste its fruit yourself.

Thanks for your time and efforts of reading this testimony.

HOW TO TAP THE EXTRA POWER





VERY WARMLY WELCOME TO THIS UPLIFTING BLOG,
IN one of our preceding articles, I have promised to share with you the secret of gaining extra energy which will overcome our tiredness. We share with you in the hope that you too can tap this extra power which everyone has. The questions arise here is whether you want to attain this power and know how to quest for this power if you want to.

Here, I append an excellent explanation below, which I viewed it to be loud and clear. However, we love to hear from you should you disagree with us. If you have different views, please let us know as how you derived your conclusion, so that we can learn from you. Be mindful that majority decisions may not be good. History has proved and reaffirmed this truth. Thank you in advance for doing so.



May I presume that the diagram below is clear to everyone? If it is so, then I will not put up another article to explain it further. Let us know your feedback through comment provided below the content.



Before I end, let me express my thanks to the creator who come up with the above diagram which help to translate a complex idea into a simple one. Well done and keep  up  your good work.

Another point worthy to note is the power of our human minds. They allowed us to attract from whatsoever we like to substantiate our views. It is also equally powerful, if it is wrongly used for the benefits of any individual, if left unchecked. Therefore, it is always wise to think deeply and touch our hearts before we make any drastic statements to blame others, so as NOT to hold accountability of our own actions. This blaming of others need to be stopped before it becomes a world phenomena.

It is always wise to start with ourselves so to speak. If we have crossed over the boundaries, please let us know because we at Lift You Up are not perfect. However, we are steadfastly working toward this direction of perfection as we progress along.

Thank you and look forward to hearing and seeing you again,

Your Chief Servant,
 
James Oh
