Eat Pray Love

My wife and I were invited to watch the sneak preview of EAT PRAY LOVE at The Cathay (Singapore) last night. The movie is about the memoir of an American author Elizabeth Gilbert’s search for her purpose in life after her divorce. The movie chronicles her pursuits to Italy, India and Indonesia just to find her ‘balance’ in life.

I personally enjoyed watching the show due to its philosophical insights.  One of them is to reinforce on the need to learn to let go of your past resentments, and your pasts. And work in the present times to get the life you need in the future – your Purpose in Life. You can enjoy laughter, peace, fun and love from external influences. But true happiness comes from within you, and not given by someone else. So, find your own life purpose and happiness while you can!

Some experts said that you can achieve anything you wish by using the power of your mind. If it’s so easy, then every one of us would be living a luxurious and healthy life by now.  You can dream of anything, and is entitled to every success, achievement and happiness you can dream of. But without actions, it will always remain as a dream, a blurred vision without actions to transform it into a reality.

We should all try to plan what we want from a broader perspective – an envisaged future for long-term benefit. The success from our ‘Big Hairy Audacious Goal’ (BHAG) is the result of many smaller successful goals that we have set after defining our mission statements.

A true BHAG is clear and compelling, serves as unifying focal point of effort, and acts as a clear catalyst for team spirit. It has a clear finish line, so the organization can know when it has achieved the goal; people like to shoot for finish lines.  – Collins and Porras, 1996

Though BHAG is mainly used for corporate visions and mission statements, we can adapt it for personal goals as well – our own personal mission statement.

Learning Elements of Numbers (EON) is not about hoping to change your life for now. In fact, it’s a life-changing system – you change for life!

So, what do you want to achieve in life? What do you want to be in the next five years? What is YOUR purpose in life?

You have to help yourself to find your own purpose in life. I can help you by providing a simple method through EON where you can know more about yourself and others. I can guide you to draw your own mind maps where you can define where each branch will leads to. I can teach you how to fish, but you still need to have the committed effort to learn how to fish before you can eat for life.

In her own words, a FengShui consultant in Paris told me in her email, “It is 2 weeks that I have received it [my book] and I don’t leave it”. She is digesting EON as much as she can to complement her metaphysics knowledge. And I know she can pick up the basics and help others as much as she can. If she can, so can you!

What you want to do today is up to you. You got to find your own Life Purpose and go all out to make it happen, and not let destiny rules you.
