Welcome back!
600 persons had decided to learn how to build an Internet Business and gathered in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia for the UYMG program, otherwise they would not be paying a big sum to come from various part of the Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia ,Taiwan and as far as Australia and many other countries.
Some felt that the seminar did not get their money worth and started a “pity party.” Some felt that the seminar did not provide them the necessary information they wanted and signed up for more in-depth coaching and mentoring. Most felt that the seminar is what they have been looking for, a hand on basic to advance teaching on how to start an Internet Marketing, so decided to start a Internet Marketing business whether by starting a blog or a website or rather a webpage.
All is fine except one very important issue here, have you heard the story about a frog’s decision. It goes like this; “Three frogs are sitting on the lily pads on a hot summer day, one decided to jump into the pond. How many frog s are there still sitting on the lily pads?” Simple question, but need a lot of thinking.
How often we have decided to do something, and years later, nothing has been done. We told ourselves, we have decided to do this and do that, why didn’t we make any progress. The answer lies on the decision of the frog who decided to jump into the pond. It had decided but it has yet to jump into the pond! Still sitting on the lily pad sitting on it’s decision, haven’t jump yet.
Perhaps, it was still thinking,
“What if there is a snake inside the pond?”
“What if when I jump into the pond, my friends will leave me.?”
“What if, …….?”
Aren’t this the same as most of us are thinking,
“What if I fail?”
“What if I met I met some technical problem and no one to help?”
“What if …….?” and
“Perhaps I should wait until I have more knowledge and skill.”
“Perhaps I shouldn’t have spend so much money and time on UYMG.?”
“Perhaps I should have taken the offers from one of the speakers to have an in-depth hand on training?”
“Perhaps …..”
When you have this feeling of “What if …” and “Perhaps…” remember the frog on the lily pad, under you jump into the pond (get your fingers on the keyboard of your PC or notebook) you will never know what the water feel like.
While writing this, I found the following verse from a little book of joy I have,
“Beware the Ghosts that haunt you,
And the demons who will taunt you-
Always there, but rarely seen;
They are the spirits of despair
And the wraiths of couldn’t-care
The Phantoms of Perhaps-I-Will,
The shades of might-have-been.”
Stephen Bowkett.
Are you letting the Phantoms of Perhaps haunt you?
Only you yourself Knew!

I agree with you Wong. Never say “What if” or “Perhaps”. Don’t wait for the opportunity, make the opportunity happen. Have faith on your believe and work passionately through it. Cause, a success person never say “What if”.
