How is Petrol Price Hike related to Personal Development?
June 5, 2008 | 4 Comments
Today we received a very interesting email from our friend, Chuan Hock who attended the Millionaire Mind Intensive in KL recently. He was commenting about the recent petrol price hike announced by the Malaysian government yesterday. You must be wondering how petrol price hike is related to personal development. Read on to find out…
Written by Chuan Hock
Yesterday evening, 4th June 2008, at approximately 5pm, the car owners of the whole Malaysian nation rushed to fill up their tank as if petrol is on one day sale! This is following the announcement that the petrol price will be increase from RM1.92 to RM2.70 per litre.
What are these people are thinking? Are they dumb or smart? In fact I am quite sad looking at the situation where people are rushing for petrol! I am sad not because of the petrol price hike. I am sad because the people surrounding us have ‘poor’ mindset!!!!
Where is T. Harv Eker????
The people of our country need your help to change their money blue print! We need more MMI (Millionaire Mind Intensive) seminars to be held here to help our fellow citizens!!!
Imagine, every road that has petrol stations was jammed due to the cars queuing to top up their petrol tank! Everywhere, every state, every kampung, every road, every corner that has got a petrol station were jammed! People were willing to queue up for 1-2 hours to get their tank filled. Is it worth doing that?
Let’s assume a car has a 50 liter tank capacity. If the tank is almost empty, then you have no choice but to queue to refill. You will save RM39 (this is assuming your tank is dry to the brink).
But not every petrol tank is empty. Majority are half full, or 2/3 or 1/3 full. So, let’s just take an average of just 1/2 tank (25 liters) to be refilled.
25 liters x RM0.78 = RM19.50
(Note: 78 cents is the increased amount)
So, an average driver (per car) will save RM19.50 by topping up the petrol tank.
Question: Do you think it is worth to queue for 2 hours to save RM19.50?
Why can’t these people use the 2 hours to do something of more value which is worth more than RM19.50 of what they can save???
How much can you earn in 2 hours?
- a typical hawker can fry approximately 50 plates of koay teow. If one plate costs RM4, with just a nett profit of RM1 per plate, he/she will earn RM50 in 2 hours!
- an investor (forex or options trading) can earn a few hundred or a few thousand dollars in 2 hours
- an average engineer’s salary is more than RM10 per hour!
- even a cleaner (the person who comes to clean your house aka ‘maids’) earns more than RM19.50 in 2 hours. They are paid RM50 for a 4 hours job.
If a cleaner’s job is worth more than RM19.50 for 2 hours, and if you feel that you have done a fantastic job by queuing up for 2 hours just to save RM19.50, I think all those queuing for petrol that night will be in very deep trouble when comes the time petrol price hits RM4 per liter!!!
Why? Because by the time petrol price is RM4 (per liter), these people will still be the same, doing the same thing, queuing up to pump to full tank trying to save the one time cost!
They never think of a way of to make their money work harder for them to overcome this crisis! They never think of passive income, investment or business to channel more $$$ for them! They just sit and complain about the price hike!
I really hope that those who are willing to change their life and change their money (financial) blueprint will attend T Harv Eker’s Millionaire Mind Intensive (MMI) seminar. After attending MMI, you will know why millionaires are different from others…. and you will be on your way to be one of them once you have the right mindset!
And when comes the next petrol price hike, you won’t be sitting in your car queuing up to pump petrol anymore!
Millionaire Mind Intensive In Malaysia
February 26, 2008 | 1 Comment
T Harv Eker is coming to Malaysia for the first time and he is holding his first Millionaire Mind Intensive training in Mines International Exhibition Convention Centre (MIECC) from 23 - 25 May 2008. Click here if you want to know more about the event.
All of us here at PersonalDevelopment4All had attended Harv’s 1st seminar in Asia, held in Singapore last year.
Harv’s MMI really helped us to analyse our own money blueprint and also change our money blue print to enable us to achieve our true potential. We got to understand ourselves more and also what is holding us back from being successful. Couples also got to understand each other’s blueprint which help to resolve many money related disagreements.
There were many exercises and activities that helped us to further understand our current financial status and also to help many of us to let go of our non-supportive thoughts and attitudes which are holding us back from our achievements. Some participants even shared their personal problems which were weighing down on them and found peace in letting it go. They should be on their way on being a millionaire now!
We learn a lot of things in the seminar, one of which was the “money jar” system. This money management system has a good balance of using the money for education, buying high value stuff, daily necessities, charity, investments and finally to pamper ourselves.
Harv and his coach, Rob, also taught us the true meaning of financial freedom and wealth. What it means to be financial free, what it means to be rich and wealthy. All these have a step by step and systematic approach to achieve them. It was really enlightening that being financialy free is not as difficult as what we had thought.
The highlight of the whole seminar was the last exercise on the last day. We had to break a real arrow with our throat! Yup its like those Shaolin monks in kung fu movies. The arrow breaking exercise is to show that fear is intangible and its something we perceive in our minds. This fear is holding us back from doing things and being successful too. We have to act in spite of fear and after we have done it, then only we know its not so scary or difficult.
I do hope that you all will take the opportunity to attend Harv’s training because up until now, its the best training we have attended. It is packed with information, loads of exercises and activities to help you absorb what you learn and to apply it in your life and also it teaches you how to really be financial free. Being financially free is really that simple!
