Wedding Shoot 27Oct'08
We had our photo shoot from 9am till 9pm...it was only on the journey home that the fatigue sets in.
It was a wonderful experience - we thoroughly enjoyed the experience, greatly attributed to having our good friends coming together with us, and also having a very experienced photographer who equally enjoyed shooting this fun couple!
Here are some raw shots taken by our friends who went with us:

Just Before I Venture Out
"Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof." - Ecc 7:8
Today is the second last day of my work before I venture out full-time with my business. Taken all the name cards, copied all the contacts, cleared all the outstanding work, emailed all my contacts to inform them of my move, packed all my belongings, guess nothing much left for me to attend to...
Feel the reluctance within me right now, because it has been my comfort zone, yet I forced myself to step out of it. Things are just going to get more exciting, more challenging, more demanding, and DEFINITELY better!
Taken several photos of my large work cubicle to remind myself that there's no turning back...

About Faith, Leadership and What We Have
About Faith
Faith strengthens our attitude.
The moment we complain, we de-energise ourselves.
Even if faith is never to accomplish something, it keeps us in a better place in life just with our attitude.
But faith is not incompetent, it WILL accomplish, and that's the greatest news of all.
About Leadership
Leaders train, not blame; they develop, not restrict.
Level of leadership (from lowest to highest):
- Positional leadership - people follow because they are under you and therefore have to
- Relational leadership - people follow because of your good rapport with them
- Productivity leadership - people follow because they can see your fruits and they want to be part of your success
- People development leadership - people follow because you've made a positive difference in their lives and they want to follow with all loyalty.
What kind of leader are you?
About What We Have
We think we have nothing. We have EVERYTHING.
The worst thing that can happen to us is when we start to feel that we are worthless.
If we think that everyone has got the real stuff, we start to think that we've got nothing.
Stop looking at what we do not have, and start to look at what we have.
When Christ is in us, we are complete - we have everything we need to make it in life.
Colonel Sanders was 65. He was sitting on the rocking chair in his porch when he received his social welfare cheque. He thought, "Is this what I want to have for the rest of my life?" With that, he made a list of what he had, and one of the items was his mother's family recipe fried chicken-with species and herbs.
He went to a local eatery and asked if he could do the dish and have it up as one of the dishes on the menu. Given the chance, his fried chicken became an instant hit and LOOK WHAT WE HAVE TODAY - a worldwide phenomenon of KFC...more finger-link'in chickens and a whole lot more fats....
We have everything we need in our hands.
The moment we change our attitude into one of faith, we start to see opportunities and resources.
What is in your hand today?

Be for me, not against me.
"It is recession time, you'll be affected."
Yes, I'll be affected, in the positive way that I believe.
Be of a different spirit. Be the Caleb, be the Joshua, lest I become like the other spies.
With every fall of empire, there will be the roar of new giants.
What appears as an adversity in one's eyes is an opportunity to another.
Rise up and be that anti-current. Why do you have to be like everyone else?
You are unique and you are able.
Be strong and of good courage.
The greater the adversities, the more others will know that it is through Christ who strengthens me that I can overcome them.
In every adversity, there are opportunities.
In every sunset, there will be sunrise.
The bigger the storm, the brighter the rainbow will be;
The One in me is greater than WHATEVER circumstances that are around me.
Will you be for me today, and not be against me?
Pray for me, shout for me, strengthens me by encouraging me, give me that extra push, would you be my cheerleader?
