Vision Board



Finally i have done my vision board after 1.5 yrs in the biz. Although we did it during a training but we never really put it at somewhere that we can see it daily.

The preparation of vision board was fun! and I finally understood what KH meant about his feeling when he did his with his family.

So for friends who have not done yet. Why not now? And why not do it with your loved one?

My visions

- i promise myself to give so much time to Improving myself that i have no time to critize others. (esp after signing up QL and the learning of the new franchising system fr HK, my training in 2009 is fully packed!)

- 20 exec in my network and help 100 children thru NTC in 2009. (the journey has started!)

- Nitendo Wii in 2009

- 2 weeks autumn tour @ Japan in 2009! (photo w flower is Hokkaido! LX Fav. photo w tree is Kyoto! My Fav! photo w bullet train is HH Fav!)

- Home schooling when HH turns 4 in 2010!

- A new apartment that LX can design her own kitchen island in 2012!

- 2 Carat diomand Ring from Tiffany in 2012! (on the website it shows US28k. Interesting!)

- Peogeot 308 as Family car in 2012 (SGD81k todate); RX8 as couple car in 2015 (SGD115k todate)

- Resort by the beach in 2015! No picture yet. Waiting the chief designer to come out with the design. :p

The round table meeting 30Dec

Hey Knights!

On 30Dec, we have the 1st draft of MADE song. Tx Ari!
Captain Jocelyn thought of a game that we all enjoyed like kids! Tx Jocelyn!

We talked about what we promised ourself and reviewed of 2008.

Jocelyn - the review proved she was OK! Frequent exercise and sleep early works!
Jac - Her 'DL' saw a complete transform of her. Her laughter, sharing, presentation are so natural and from the heart now. (Jac, not only your DL. we all feel it!)
Xavier and Ruby felt the greatest joy they had in 2008 was to join MADE.
Jenny said her nervous always betrayed her but she has learnt to be so cool at appearance now that no one ever noticed her nervousness. (i must agree. Jenny. I cannot find a trace of nervousness at all.)
Ari impressed everyone of his sharing during the TRA grad party and the MADE song. Ari finally showed his true color!
KH and Alfred said something but i could not remember clearly. paiseh ;p

For me, I would like to thank Jocelyn for the game personally. Because of you, i finally completed my visionboard. This is the dreams of my family. I would like to share with all of u.
The promise I made during the meeting - To give so much time to Improving myself that I have no time to critize others.

Ruby Knights - The round table meeting 23Dec

(Done by Ari :))

Greeting Knights,

Few people attended the RC on last Tue 23 Dec. Ruby was the host.

Alfred started the ball rolls by sharing on his ACTION on the previous week. He attended a function with the intention to get some new contacts and prospects. Come to his surprise, the event was filled with network marketing people, whereby 5 people rushed onto him and tried to prospect and get his number once he arrived there. He said the place was like a "fish market", nevertheless, he managed to get 4 contacts and 1 will come for Oliver's BOM.

The sharing went on and on and got hotter with other network marketing companies come into the picture. We are obviously not the only company selling weight management product. But this won't last long as we are about to release the ultimate weapon of Total Wellness Program ;)

Kc shared on one company which conducts blood test and recommends the customer on what food to take and the range of intake based on the blood test result.

I shares on another company, LFI, who uses acupuncture method in their weight management program. However, they do not have proper nutrition knowledge that causes my colleague, who took the program, become afraid consuming rice. This is pitiful.

Talking on other companies program, Jacklyn spiced it up more with her customers' experience. Her godfather, if I'm not mistaken, is undergoing TRA while her godmother, if I'm not mistaken as well, is undergoing HerbalLife. She is witnessing live comparison between the 2 products and guess what... Her godfather is getting younger, muscle increases and fat drops. On the other hand, her godmother's bone muscle is decreasing, and not much result.

Congratulations to Xavier who just closed another TRA set.

Xavier was initially afraid of competing with other products/ brand but he now says that fear is not necessary, "The Product will speak itself."

Alfred took the "Singapore vs Vietnam" match as an illustration. Although Singapore dominated the whole game, Vietnam won the game with just one counterattack. Those competitors might be forcing and challenging us but it does not mean they're going to win. We'll strike back!

I recalled and shared on Starbucks story when they just started the business. Upon entering a new market, they need to compete with the local coffeeshops. While some of the board directors are afraid, the CEO convinces them that they should be grateful instead. The existence of local coffeeshops has shaped up the market and the appreciation of coffee in the community. The market is already created for Starbucks. Whether or not people will buy to the new way of Starbucks coffee depends on how well of the products itself.

As Xavier said "The product will speak itself".Thats all on TRA versus other brands.

Then KengHua continued, he expressed his feeling about his downline who did not turn up for LC. He is sad and yet happy. Not to say happy, but he is glad that this case is closed and he can move on! Just as he set his mind to move on, a new prospect just pop up out of the blue. His son's teacher would like to meet up and get to know the business.

In one occassion, HockSeng managed to talk with the staff on "Distributor success is our success". He is suggesting that it might sounds better "Success together". Rain Ho (not sure how to spell the name) then replied him that if we want to succeed together, must make a difference everyday. HockSeng continued that it all come down to the "Purpose". If the staffs know their purpose and we know our purpose, then we could become succeesful together.

He especially emphasized our purpose as distributor (rather than the staff). He said some distributors, for example, being selfish and only concern that their face are most important. This should not be the way, the customers face is what most important. If the distributors are selfish, the staff will have difficulties.He then continued sharing a story of an army... bla bla bla... He spoke very long here and I did not manage to take note all :P

In summary, there was this one soldier drove the tank. He lost and seperated from the team. The team was supposed to get into the key terrain to win the battle training. Although the defender army was of superior to them and know the terrain really well, he was not afraid and he carried on... drove the tank fast. He thought he was left behind by the team. While driving so fast, he suddenly realized the surrounding. Yes, he reached the key terrain already and the team won the battle due to him. The defender army did not expect that somebody would take that open dangerous route to reach the key terrain. It is simply because he knows his "purpose", which is to reach the key terrain. Similarly we can do so many things in so many ways to succeed in the business, but if at the end of the day we forget our purpose and the customer is not happy, then we lost the battle.

Sorry if some of the above are not so accurate to the actual sharing =P

Cheers,Ari Indra

Ruby Knights - The round table meeting 16Dec

Ruby Knights!!

Greeting!

Firstly, Knight Alfred 'dressed' like Razimah during POW WOW. You must see the photo from Suhaimi! Wahahaha!

Knight Alfred's boy is having fever hence he does not stay for the Knight round table meeting. Wish his boy get well soon!

So tonight, we started with our ruby knight without any BD around. New experience - we are having new experience in this biz everyday, arent we?

There are 4 of us. So we end up playing mahjong!! Kidding!
Because we have a small group, we end up sharing alot of personal stuff and the energy is even higher than last week.

We are fantastic!

Tonight the topic is intention:-
Xavier - He shares his intention when he joined the ruby challenge. The intention drives him to attend every single ruby challenge meeting except for once he was in high fever.
And he makes it to RUBY on time! Isnt it POWER??

Ari - feels that it is time that he starts to learn to present, intention not to always rely on upline. And guess what? He did a presentation to 3 friends during his vacation to KL!! WOW WOW!
and Ari also reaffirms his Ruby pin title by Jun2009!

Ruby - her intention is to become the best listener of the night. So she just listens to 3 big boys talking and talking! haha!

ee chieng - shares about his intention to brand ourselves as Ruby knight. And guess what? other made leaders have been talking about US! The next is to make ourselves known in regional MADE and Nuskin!
And his vision is the same group of people in Ruby knight will support each other to higher pin title down the road - Diamond knight, BD knight, TE knight...

and 4 of us feel that besides positive sharing during ruby knight meeting which we also did that during POW WOW, there is a need to go for more intensive actions. Xavier shares his understanding from his taiwan partner how they run the Ruby challenge. And we all feel that ours are really a relaxed and comfortable mode. And it is a very BIG challenge to follow what the taiwan people are doing.

Hence we decide on next Tues 23Dec topic - Action! Captain is Ruby!
What type of intensive actions shall we take to next level?
(Xavier has agreed to share his Ruby journey since he joined ruby challenge. What were the specific actions from Aug to Nov that he did to become a Ruby!)

May we have Jac and Alfred to share about their experience too?


And for the knights who are out at mission (whether at work, at HK or wheresoever), we will welcome you back on next Tues!

Two actions for the knights:-

1. B Prepared of the topic - action!
2. Our commitment to attend next week meeting.

Ruby Knights!

Greeting!
For those who were not here last night, I m very excited to share with you that we kept on sharing until BD KC told us that there is a time restriction to close the Nuskin showcase. We got to leave!

Credit must be given to Xavier - the captain of the Knights who started the fire so well!

Summary of the night
Felicia - declaration of her Ruby title by Apr 2009
Jocelyn - She wants our full support to remind her to exercise regularly (this requires our immediate action and support, so i highlight in RED)
KengHua - a very eventful long weekend that transformed him to declare his BD title by June 2009
Xavier and Ruby - How losing of passport, cancellation of 'honeymoon' can turn to potential GSV??!!
Alfred - How to transform a phantom line to a serious business building line??!!
Cindy - She will bring our wishes and energy and send a strong message to the morning group when she joins them.
Ee Chieng - A strong believer of getting a new habit in 90 days program. New habit is required to acheive greater success

AND NOW

There is a special training by BD Oliver @ 7pm before pow wow, topic - PROMISE!!
- What is the difference between commitment and promise?
- Why is promise a very important psychology factor?
And the best part of this training is:-
It is opened to all our friends!! Come with friends!

AND for the round table meeting 16Dec:-

I will be the host! :)
Xavier has given the topic to start (so glad that i do not need to think of one, thanks Xavier!) and agreed by all of us.
The TOPIC is Intention and Method - which weigh more? (i think most of us are awared). And what is our intention in this biz, in this group?
Be prepared Knight!

LAST
I would like to urge everyone commitment to reply to this email - to inform each and everyone of us here whether you are attending the round table meeting 16Dec.

Forming of Ruby Knights!

I was inspired after the ruby challenge part timer meeting on 2Dec night and reading of Jac and Alfred's message below:-

From Ruby Jac
It was a real inspired night for all, we shall keep our group energies every week hence that will be our focus besides result, to create energy and be energised by all.
Tonight we have a new member transfered from the full time morning group, Jenny, who was 'interviewed' by the group and accepted, has her intention and objective clear, ie to achieve Ruby by April, that makes our April two JJ (Jenny & Joyceline) Ruby babies. Next in line after Keng Hwa & Fong Ing for Dec Ruby, Jan we shall have Ee Chieng to be delivered after her wife Rachel, (that's interesting, father and child 'delivered' in the same month).
Since I spelled out some of my opinions for some minimal 'house' rules, no one has objected to it, we shall 'start our happy family' with all understanding our intention to be in the group and feel the ownership of the group and take charge.

From Ruby Alfred
Thank you guys. All your contribution tonite is very energizing. This is the first time i felt fresh after our ruby meeting. Let keep the energy flowing.

Hence in stead of calling us Ruby challenger part timer, I am thinking of branding ourselves. My message to fellow challengers:-

Last night we spoke alot about intention, ownership of this RC family.
This morning, I thought of the main reason that I joined Nuskin. It is because of MADE.
And I always position myself as a MADE representative whenever I am meeting people. I am Proud to be in MADE.

Hence I am thinking why not we give our Ruby challeger part time group a prestigious name which all of us will be very proud of, which everyone in Nuskin will be talking about! I believe by branding ourselves will help us in the ownership of this family.

I am thinking this is a quest to conquer a land called Ruby land. We are coming together like a fellowship. When all of us conquer the land, we will be awarded with a prestigious name called Ruby. Just like in ancient time, people who contribute alot to the country was awarded with kinghthood. ( i like fantasy stories like lord of the ring and RPG games. Although i stop playing now from the order of 'the queen'. haha!)

Hence I am thinking to name ourselves 'THE MADE Ruby Knights'. Short form - Ruby Knights! Good or good? Please either second this name or give better suggestion. We got to decide quickly as there are more important quests ahead. Do not spend days think about the name! (in lord of the ring, they spend less than 1 min to decide the name.)


and 1st one to second is from Ruby Alfred

Ruby Knights, Ruby Knights,
We meet at night
Part time we are, so time is tight
But intention clear, we fight, fight, fight.

Behold me great comrades, our next two Knights in shiny armor for Dec are Fong Ying/Keng Hwa and Helen/Janet. (Clap, clap, clap)

HAHA! So we shall officially calling ourselves Ruby Knights from today onwards!

Ruby Knight Ee Chieng
