As a coach, 3 simple but basic note.

I was once taught of 3 things as learning to grow in the corporate world.
These 3 things are actually "ARE".

What do they stand for?

A: Appreciate
R: Respect
E: Encourage

Appreciate 
We will need to learn how to appreciate others, for:
- the companionship
- the sincere friendship
- the partnership
- the talents they possess
- the knowledge sharing
- the feedback they give

- the time spent

- the efforts they put in for some work

- the thoughts they had

- the sharing

Appreciation of a person, a situation, a scenario, etc.... brings us a long way. 

So, let's give thanks!

Respect
We respect everyone equally. 
We do not merely respect a person because of:
- the financial status
- the social status
- the knowledge they possess
- the partnership we have
- the relationship we have

But we respect a person, merely because we respect them as a person & a human being. 

Key point is: If we expect respect from someone, please respect someone first. If we take the first step, we are in a much pleasant position. 

If we do not respect a person, the universe will somehow send the signal to that person ultimately. And we will not be respected in one way or another as well. 

Encourage
Along the way, we will meet people that needs our encouragement. Either to get the person out of an awkward situation, or to lift the person to another level, or to get the person to grow, etc.....

With the right encouragement, a person can go very far. 

Negatively, if we discourage a person, he/she will be usually pushed back. And this is not a good act. 

Think of it this way, Many years back, we were in that position where we need encouragement from others too. 

6 Needs of human being

According to Anthony Robins, we all have 6 needs:

a. Need of Certainty.
b. Need of Uncertainty.
c. Need of Significance.
d. Need of Connection & Love.
e. Need of Growth.
f. Need of Contribution.

Our philosophy/skills:
- to be a team player. This is the most important thing as human being.

New on mind mapping!

I have created another blog to concentrate more on mind mapping. WIll start to post some of my actual mind mapping for sharing purposes.

Please check out the below:

What is my concept of Continuous Enhancement?

I define continuous enhancement as continuous changes and improvement in any field that you think is valuable. In short, adding values to yourself in any amount, in each day.



I have been exposed in so many fields, and I am still continuously enhancing myself each day.



Here, I will share with you what I know so that we can continue to be enhanced.

A wise man told me once, "if you share what you learn with someone, you will know more of the topic that you share."

And I know it is true. Throughout my years of coaching, teaching, sharing, learning & exchanging of information, I have learnt more each day.

My next topic (in a day or two's time) will be my all time favourite, ie mind mapping. I will gather a few real life examples that I have done and share with you how that is being done.

At first....

This is another of my blog to share with you the skills I know.




Once, my ex-supervisor told me....


"If you learn a new thing each day,

you will learn 365 new things each year.

How far are you compare to others that did not learn?"




He also askedme to write down in a note book the things that I have learnt each night. This way, I can review them whenever I like it.




With the continuous learning attitude, I went on an interesting journey to gather information & knowledge.





Below are a few skills that I will share with you from time to time:





- mind mapping.

- improve your basic memory skills.

- SWOT analysis.

- basic presentation skills.

- simple strategic management.

- simple project management.

- basic problem solving skills.

- basic decision making skills.

- how to change yourself effectively.

- basic time management.

- etc. (more to add)





Best regards,
