Hokkien Version of Covey's 7 Highly Effective People & more...

Steven Covey's famous 7 habits for successful people are nothing more than a free adaptation of very common Hokkien phrases

(surprised?)

So why pay thousands of dollars to attend talks when your grand-parents, parents, spouses and even the auntie who sweeps the floor can give you the same kind of advice FOC, every day?

Habit No 1: Be Pro-Active
Kin Ka Kin Chiew
(Fast leg, fast hand)

Habit No 2: Sharpen the Saw
Toh Bua Lai Lai
(Make the knife sharp)

Habit No 3: Begin with the End In Mind
Ooh Tao Ooh Buay
(Have head, have tail)

Habit No 4: First Things First
Chik Hung Chik Hung Lai - Ban Ban Lai
(One thing at a time, slow and steady); or
Cho Tow Seng
(Do first ; talk later)

Habit No 5: Think Win-Win
Long Chong Ai Yarh
(Must win everything)
This is definitely not thinking win-win. This is a zero sum game. Win everything!

Habit No 6: Seek To Understand Rather Than To Be Understood
Cho Lang Ai Eh Beng Pek
(You must be understanding)

Habit No 7: Synergize
Tai Kay Ai Hup Chop
(All must cooperate)

20.12.2009 Black Belt Test

Congratulation to Kin Man for getting his 3rd successive level in black belt test!

I have not been training for so long and I made a come back on sunday to help up as senior to spar with juniors who were taking test, other than that holding targets and planks too. As in the area. I felt a lot excited and very happy that I could still kick and punch even not been practising for quite some time, however maintaining top form was certainly difficult as I now involve major in running. Well, it was fantastic day! Many old faces met as like a gathering.

Those days... In my heart...

Year 2006
Wei Hon, Chi Yang, Wai Hong

What the hell!!! Carry me like big fish! haha..

yeah!!! we are ready!!! GAMBATEH!!!

fantastic 10!

These are all old days photos when we were preparing very hard for the taekwondo championship 3 years back on 28th May 2006. We had spent almost more than 3 months just to practise for the championship. A team of 10, myself, Kin Man, Chi Yang, Mun Chek, Shu Keong, Wai Hong, Su Ting, Simon, Kar Kitt, Hooi Tong to plan up the performance, drama, plank breakings, poomsae. Sad thing was we only managed to get 1st runner up with losing to Sunway team by just 1 point! After the Emcee announced that we were 1st runner up, 1 of the referees claimed that we should actually deserved the gold medals. Well it was okay! We had done our best! No doubt we were the best!

We started practising at our old place KDE (Kelab Darul Ehsan) every Wednesday, sometimes at Permaisuri Park. Those days were most hardcore with sweats, bloods, effort, passion. Sometimes, we did have some misundertanding and arguement. I think these misundertandings and arguements made us got closer and understand one another better.

I miss those days! Those days were fantastic! We were together most of the time practise together, talk together, play together. When I looked at these pictures my tears almost dropped. I felt miss them very much! I wish I could cluster 10 of us again! I think they will have same thought as me too. These days everybody busy with their studies and work already, I believe we can gather again!
