I have been told by 2 friends in the music field that that follow the same zen master - a rare known one in Taiwan, and they call themselves : fou sen Chung - a branch out from the budda zen era, what cause more interested is not the religion they promote , but the skin care product they offered, I remember the incident burst out a few years ago, the zan branded out cosmetic / skin care brand : Shang Hwa Tain set a record of selling 300 millions of their product in one day at one apartment store - SOGO, the skin care product claimed to be showered or blessed by the regional , customer who wish to buy it must take a fotunre telling process, and the sales rep will match you wirh the best fit product for you and they also claim to have certain treatment function , of course, such a promotion brought the attending from governmental authority , in the end, they retreat from SOGO and open it's retail store , and the skin care product is back up by the little temple I am going to visit yesterday afternoon !
It hind somewhere between San chin county and Tamsui , if you follow the google map, this is what we did , it's not so hard to find ,we arrived by 4:00 pm, 3 hours before it close , the environment and set up were so elegant , it's been there for 10 years , from the temple itself , you can tell the quality it want to present by carefully check the material they use for building the main hall, we know nothing about the temple or religion , but saw many people conduct the fortune drawing , well, why not in Rome do as Romas do, it's a bit complicate than otter place, you have to draw it 3 times from 3 different drawing content, guess what ? The paper I pick fit my current situation so well, do what I enjoy with passion and helps are on the way !
Lunch with Eric tseng for help him organized his regional mandarin forum retreat in Taiwan , I don't really know him well really , all I know is If I don't offer my help, it won't be smooth, think next step:
1. Invite former RMF member to meet and provide support
2. Inform Vincent my first finding

What's been done
a trace back routine comes again. let's started from what happen last night.
I bought a few DVD from Shanghai, the pirate DVD wasn't my favorite choice as the experience encounted wans't a pleasent one, the experice before are : can't play, bad quality and terrible Chinese translation ( or even in it's original language ), So I gave up the " what not try it " thinking and get rid of buying other cheap pirate DVD in China, but this time in Shanghai, I was conveniece by the store owner, they run a normal DVD store, not like those vendors occpuied dark corner and you probable won't see the same guy again. so, with his guareenty, I bought a few DVD back, guest what? the shop owner is right, the DVD 9 quality and the Chinese Translation are to my surprise, so precise and so excelllent in its quality demostration, and on top of that, I even get the chance to preview some of the movie which is not release in Taiwan yet. such as the film me and me wife enjoyed at home : The whishow blower , a great film disclose the dark and dirty story about the UN peace keeper organization at Sariyaber - thoese contractor who engaged with UN and send the solider of fortune they who become human trafficter and conduct some terrible crime in the peace keeping zone. the DVD I bought were so good in its quality present, but for the film itself, wasn't the same story, you can really counting on the cast - follow the whishor blower, we watch one Bruce Wills / 50 cents featured movie " Set Up" I was wondering why this new movie wasn't show in TAIWAN, after a few eposide, both me and my wife realized why, this is a very lousy film.. but as I said, the quality wasn't bad, so, half falling sleep, me and my wife finish this film before going to bad.
presumely, me and my wife would like to go somewhere near the beach after my lunch with Kevin Peng yesterday, however, the front dest cleak at Water Gym ruin my day, I always wait Meiling at the rest area before she do her hair , but yesterday, the cleak warn me that the rest area is for members only - I am so upset and turn away and find myself some place to rest my food, but there's no mood for any sceneary activity. same as Meiling, who show me our new Wolkswagon - Passat CC - one of the tire logo were stolen, same as the BMW situation before. so....
Sunday is a good day, " Hold my hand " is the documentary film I always want to bring my wife to go with, we did on Sunday morning, this is the great documentary, Doctor Tien and Mama Tien are so in love and the love trencent to have Mama Tien follow every step Doctor Tien wish to, she even out perform what Doc. expected, follow socila movement, activity involved in resure of political prinsnor, and so so in love with Dr. Tien. I shed tear at the theather so many times. really a very touching documentary, I am not comment on any political bias or any propoganta on the film, in the era of mistery, only greatest mind will show the spirit.
one movie is not enought, after our Fukenese lunch at one very old restaurant, we decided to go to Happiness Theater for the second run movies, we did thress - Bounre, Katirina and Those days, I enjoy Katiran very much, as it is a cult film follow Luc Besson's influence. yest, vilence with style. that's my Sunday, day after the trip to Shanghai.
Last Saturday - in the morning, I do the closing report for New Wide group and leave for the airport earlier, enjoy one recreation and slept on the plan, no much happening on Saturaday in Shanghai.
Friday morning as scheduled, we meet Adam Hung - Dean of Xing Wei colleage Shanghai and I learn a lot about the challenge Xingwei and Ming is facing now:
1. to re-position Xinwei and to give the brand a new life.
2. to maintain lincence and sacrifice with income but manage to secure better student from the market.
3. to reshape the faculty, some of the non qualifed teacher must leave, how to?
4. to get the student they want, the recurting process were block by a few broker or agent
5. to support facalty run school admi, the funder can do nothing.
6. to convenience the parent who's holding the key to there kid. their must be a way to deliver the value with win-win situation
I am willing to grand my support, and I am thinking how to?
to show my gratitue to csr teams who support the New Wide Chang Chew consensus workshop, I buy the team a good lunch and follow with Pu Uer tea session - Dien She Chai Shanghaines restaurnt and Da Ko Tung Tea Club - the 2 places where we conduct our Forum sessions. I return to Motel 168 - yes, the hotel csr offers, and really do nothing.
Consensus working at New Wide Cheng Chew is a success event, I can tell from the attendee and expecially at the final stage with Executive VP Mr. Ho. it's good to deliver a quality program by end of the training session, the build up session gave me great confience in better polish it and take it as a series to sale to other company. I better work the progress out before I forget every detail.
Tapei Forum Fundemental is a good session also : John - the VC and Family bought him a Bank is an interested person / Hubert - the owner of Ambassedor Hotel and other investment may continue with my service / Eric - Son of the famous cotton sock maker is a sincere person and Jack - who come for bounding and open help to mingul each other.
Hard work make difference, Practice and practice make the different, I learn a great way. Lee Hom's concert ticket to James is a good gesture, I am glad that they really enjoy it.

My responsiblity and future role
I don't know why the Chinese New Year's overseas trip will be the querrel point between me and Meiling? as she said that she knew it will end up this way - by the last moment, I will say NO to her,but I don't know why she said I am the tirest and hard working person who support the family, but willing to spend 300.000 NT for a " must but not from my viewpoint " decision? we didn't have big fight, but she is not happy and always lead to her narrow thinking, will it be problem to me? I don't know, but it's a problem to her : since this is a Fact - I am now working on my own and earn every penny with my effort. to support this family ain't easy, and she knew that to please my parent wasn't a right thing to do, or to put it this way, not a right moment / timing to do - we have no money, if the 300.000 can be saved, we may have additional 3 months living allowance, so, why we MUST spend it this way?, this is a big Why to me? anothe behavior , or she forget in the early days, we spending money to buy the intimacy from my parent to her, but it's all in vain, at that time, we afford to do it, but today, the overall family financial situation won't allow me to enjoy this luxury, why the old habit come to hit us again, this is why I can't understand.
But I am much mature than before, it doesn't impact so much on my dairy routines, this morning, the breakfast coaching / discussion session is good for both me and Steve, I think to bring him to Randy and Ming's project is good - a high level consultant for Education and Training Consulation market in China is vital for us.
Esoterism weekly meeting go as usual, not much touch upon detail or to raise sharp questions in between, I am thinking to add or reduce question is good or bad? but I did tell every founder that I enjoy the moment with them and wish to develop a personl coaching time with them on monthly basis. should consider to do it now. as next monthly meeting conflict with my Warsaw schedule. I am asking for a postpone date, hope it works for everyone.
Eric Tseng call and invited me for the training on Feb. 3/4/5/- the 3rd Regional Mandarin Forum retreat training, I set the schedule with Eric next Tuesday to go over the overall Retreat itinerary - now the training commitment is growing. I should do it as better as possible.

I feel good
Target selection for New Wide Group in Taipei is a great success, compare with what I did in Chung Chew on Oct. 19 ( exactly one month ago ), I felt relax and released, thanks to the new team members- Chi How and Pamela and the book ' talent is overrated " which inspire me that " only practice make the difference ", I control the time and pace in a great way, and I can see the 2 owner of the company - Tony Huang and Anglela Chuang appreciate what I did on Sat. - they stay for the entire course, really.
Family return to a rapport way - I gave Sound a big hung while saw him in Friday afternoon, Meiling brought her to pick me up afterwork. we had dinner together and yesterday, Sound make toast for us - using the toast machine.
After training, Fruit asked if I may take her to lunch - she missed the Japnaese Deep Fried Pork Rib. no a problem at all, she discloved her recent activity in colleage life and told now she is seeing someone - a 3 years college boy at the same school. as long as she is mature and happy, what can we ask for more?
Doing Team Building slides now and prepare YPO coming Fundementl Workshop on Tuesday, such an intenstive scheudle, but I really enjoy it - with passion and add on practice, you will finally achieve what you aim for.

SteveJobs bio and the book reading seminar
Celine and Kim arrange book reading seminar with Steve Job bio publisher : Common Wealth, they told me this is the chance to do a PR - Media for what I am doing now - executive coach or tranining consultant. I am not against this proposal, but the rationale can't really stir me up: first, I have to present myself as the " Victim of Steve Job Era " and to trace back the hey days of music and how it dramatically replaced by itune and many of the music elite lost their job due to jobs? am I be the spoke person for those music elite? or claim to be among them? for both identiy won't do my any good unless I have sense of humon and great skill in facilitation. then I have to invite my friends ( those who in YPO and enjoy fame and fortune ) to either donate their time or money in participaing on the panel- for this, I am not sure what's behind Celine's mind.
I fully agree to leverage what Jobs' legecy impact on earth and in this part of world, but I am not sure should I hijack this topic and to claim it a " rights " to exercise, this is pretty much short-sighted and kind of opportunitism, not my favorable thing to do.. and beside, I havn't read the book and have no confidence to finish reading soon. what potion to take on this proposal?
consensus workshop Team Building preparation meeting held yestearday, it last 3 hours, thanks to Celine, Chi How and Jae's contribution, it turn out a better organized project , I am not sure if Pamela qualifed to be a " Project leader "? or just follow what's been asked and get thing done? I am in the oberservation stage still. however, the rehearsal session with Pamela in the morning in regard to the target selection training session went quite well, with her input / participating and role play, it gave me a good chance to revise and smooth some slide and teaching point..you need all kinds of mirrow all the time. be humble and you will learn.
I am gradually coming back to a working mood, Meiling is suffering, so, this is a complementary role, always someone to support the other one, family issue is an never ending story. don't want to address too much, I have too much to do now.
Randy is creating the contact mood with me, which I like it. Beijing Mandarin Forum should be a great start.

back issue and current update from 1107-1117
0111107
This morning I went for Esoterism regular meeting – my second time to the meeting and to breathe the air 2 founder and one strategic planner did, this is what I found:
1. CEO is not running the meeting, or not prepare to run a meeting, maybe free style is the style , but it worried me that if they are playing with other people’s money.
2. Design and production head have problem with marketing / sales head – the 2 founders don’t have alignment in product roadmap and the forecast of the business.
3. No set of priorities along with the strategic planning or resource deployment, the money is here, maybe they are not aware of the new responsibility is at hand right now. Or I am over concern?
4. Organization development along with the product and business forecast. Another issue these guys need to figure it out as soon as possible.
I need 4 more weeks to see the quality of this team, and to get to know what’s in Steve’s mind – it seems to me he is communicate between 2 founders but reluctant to spend more time on this company. If Steve left, then what will happen next?
Maggie Shu called me up while I check in Bund on the riverside hotel this afternoon, Maggie told me Denis Handlin is or will be in Taiwan for the search – for next man running greater china for Sony Music, I have the passion to explore before, but when thinking it over and over, I can’t answer 2 question below :
1. Why I leave Music industry in 2000?
2. What value I can bring to Sony Music Greater China today?
If I don’t have a clear why and why not, it won’t be a good game for everybody.
Ming called for a joint training for Government Body – this is what interested me. See what happen from his approach.
I am upgrade to Suite at the hotel, don’t know why, but to work in a better space. That’s it.
The cold is not going away yet, I am still in a bad shape, not been exercise for a few days, eating too much and eating too much non-health food. Stay up late and wake up late. Reading not much and didn’t follow schedule for my coming training course. I need to picking up the pieces. Yes, the only person who can change you is oneself. Don’t count on anybody else, it’s you, can’t hide and can’t escape.
What’s the point to spend 25000 NT to Shanghai every month? I better figure it out after Chinese New Year; it’s no point, really, really.
20111108
Wake up by 8:00 am, neither early nor late, as I am taking the sick compensation rest – a comfort to myself, so, feeling less guilty not to take exercise in the morning or make a change of wake up earlier.
When receive Rayne’s mail about copy Jack on the meeting note, I can sense the Esoterism development will be a tough road, maybe Rayne is a micro-management style person, but to have Jack to perform the role in scrutinize the company which he took the majority share. Again, what worried me is : founder will then transform themselves to worker / employee, losing of entrepreneur momentum will be a lose-lose game. How I may change it? Or in what role I should actively involve. Will my consultant fees lead Rayne to a “split the pie with management team together “ and ask Jack to reach his hand deeper in the new start up? I am not sure, but since I am now involved, the only way to go is up – helping the company to achieve what it claim to be. With milestone set and with contingency plan in place – just as what I share with Meiling – to be the marriage broken is not a good job, once the couple develops unhealthy relationship, you will be point finger. Same as the investing broker – you say and draw a picture to invite others, and then the thing turn to a non-controllable stage, and you know it happened all the time. What can we do different to win the war in the brand / design initiative?
Finally get my China mobile credit up to 300 RMB, its quite simply, but you never try so you never know. Fooled by the 2nd floor service even thought I am having cold still.
Stone is playing with me? Why have Sonia send me mail and then drop the line and play the ugly game. The lesson take, don’t play the old scrip every time.
Complete terminate CDY event is a great thing, own nothing to no one, I should not take extra responsibility as this moment of time. Yes, need to ignite myself and finding the fire inside. Believe in executive development, then follow your heart and become the master of what you believe, there’s no short cut, so.. do it one step a time and do it from now on.
It’s chilly in Shanghai now, people wears light jacket and the rain falls, stay in my suit and finish my blog – a way of reflect and digest what went wrong and what need to be remembered. Time to work on the project now.
Update from today: 20111117
Beijing Mandarin Forum pilot meeting is an unique experience, I wasn't sure if my contribution mean anything to Lucy double. Randy, Monita and Robert, but I am pretty sure this is a right thing to do. no matter how the outcome will be, this probabely will be the most desplice governed Forum in China.
Attending Esoterism weekly meeting yesterday, I had a sense that Ryne will be there, suprising on his birthday he show up for this very minor investment.. and I sense the uncomforable ambience floating arond, this is a scurnitize management meeting and the majority shareholder and Chairman is action on his interest. I am not sure if the so call : Creative and Innovation driven funders will be happy with what they see. I throw out one question -- how we going to raise next fund? what value we will bring to next potencial investor and current shareholders? why saying so, not because I am passimistic about the business performance, but I am aware of if the funder and management team didn't pay attention to the P and L, then the money needed will come before burning out Ryne's 15 millions NT investment. Steve is in charge of strategy, admi and finance, he should be very clear about what's going on here.
Doing my first interveiw anchor to NEW Wide yesterday in the afternoon. for Sunny - Executive Director and Agenla Chuang - Preseident and mother who run the diaring operation for New Wide. this inverview is for prepare the Chang Chew Team Building materia and to get the " Focus Question " before the date: Nov. 24th. Angela share with me more than I expect , she cadid share me how she see the managment team in Chun Chew and her concerns:
- Factory Chief is not ambitious to deal with challenge or difficulty, and sometimes to costmetic the data - this is not the way Miss Chuang want to see.
--New Factory chief on board for less than 6 months, Angela think he is not qualify to manage the entire factory as too conservertive and square to what he only see, not bold or with vision to handle this new and revolutionary line
-- Direcot Ho - the promising talent is the one who should be futher developed and to Angela , his performance and capability is better than VP in the company.
-- MA - Manager assistant - new blood and young talent is what New Wide play high hope with, how to nurture them and keep the high energy
Sunny have a 7 years brain power giant project in 2012. quite interesting... and he profile the talent New Wide need:
1. Profession driver - no oral or written, but to walk the talk
2. Believe in corporate culture - Sharing and Honest, sharing in 3 direction : Profit / Experience / Knowledge
3. Team player : know how to work with others
YPO Taipei resume the new member fundemenal workshop on 22nd. it gave me new assignment and income, contact Allen of EO, it seems the project is alive still, Dec or Jan 2012.
Cancle Meiling's Warsaw trip with me, I will focus on the training and developing the connection with other facilitators.. question, how to handle Angla Fan? interesting.

Beijing Mandarin Forum pilot meeting is an unique experience, I wasn't sure if my contribution mean anything to Lucy double. Randy, Monita and Robert, but I am pretty sure this is a right thing to do. no matter how the outcome will be, this probabely will be the most desplice governed Forum in China.
Attending Esoterism weekly meeting yesterday, I had a sense that Ryne will be there, suprising on his birthday he show up for this very minor investment.. and I sense the uncomforable ambience floating arond, this is a scurnitize management meeting and the majority shareholder and Chairman is action on his interest. I am not sure if the so call : Creative and Innovation driven funders will be happy with what they see. I throw out one question -- how we going to raise next fund? what value we will bring to next potencial investor and current shareholders? why saying so, not because I am passimistic about the business performance, but I am aware of if the funder and management team didn't pay attention to the P and L, then the money needed will come before burning out Ryne's 15 millions NT investment. Steve is in charge of strategy, admi and finance, he should be very clear about what's going on here.

--New Factory chief on board for less than 6 months, Angela think he is not qualify to manage the entire factory as too conservertive and square to what he only see, not bold or with vision to handle this new and revolutionary line
-- Direcot Ho - the promising talent is the one who should be futher developed and to Angela , his performance and capability is better than VP in the company.

Trouble about sound
Sound is enchanting teenager rebel period, on at 9 grade , he need to focus on first important entrance examination , however , he didn't tKe it seriously ! When review what went wrong and try to find the answer upon us, I identify a few clues that might lead him to a non responsive today :
1. We think he is working or study too hard at s hook, Home is the place to relax, so we never against his will to do whatever he enjoy at home , such as : watch PPS, take very long bath ( yes, something is takes half of the day ),
2. We never asked if any homework he need to finish before retiring to school: as a matter of fact, on the parent communication booklet, there is homework always , he never done it and we never ask
3. Try to please him too much : such as provide hike my iPad , iPhone games
4. Never create quality time to review life or his activity in school : what I did most as routine is bring him to movies or eslite book store and set him free : we don't create time to share or discuss.
We change our wrong doing one by one and this action taken result to his unpleasant at home, when found he is hiding some games carriage and plan to exchange with classmate , this really disappointing me, his mother telling a lie to school manager to protect him , how come his didn't think it over, I lost the trust in sound , and it need a decent time to regain it.
CD matter gone over, she return to the way she think is better for her life and I am free from any non supportive responsibility .
NCCU class complete yesterday, student were so commit to conduct the presentation they prepared , the free lunch is a magic, kind of perfect ending.

Went for the blood draw yesterday morning, I can't resist for what must be done, proscrate is a very bad habit, it must get rid of immediately.I thought the blood draw will take hour, but it came so fast, why everyone is hurry up for the blood drawing in the early morning - the experiece encounterd lead me to an wrong perception or believe - according to the Nur Doctore express on TED Eintingberg - I watch it last last night and learn one thing: Why do we need brain ? the function of brain is to decide our movement. and the musule movement were define by 2 things : Data Now and Memory - to combine current data with what happened before ( the memory ) brian will Predict the future and instruct our musule to funtion that way - he took the tennes player's sport action to illustrate it. quite an educational learning.
I learn something from Lin Yu Tong's writing about Su Tong Ber - one of the greates poetist, politician and literatur master in Sung Dynasty - together with his younger brother and father, 3 of them were among the top 8 masters across Tang and Sung Dynasty. Ligustic Master Lin is a scholar who study Su in his last stage, Lin read all of Su's writer and diary then come up with the Bio of Su Tong Per in English. the litter story share on the book is how Su make friend with other : no preference, no stereo type and accept all kind of frined, he making acquainted with new friend so fast and this personality worried his wife - who die at the age of 26 - so young and so helpful to Su. the story said : she sometimes sit behind the curtain when Su's new friend visit, she will stop the conversation and after the vistor leave, Su's wife will honestly tell Su how he think about this person, such as : This guy say every word to flatter and please you, why should you invest time in such a person' amazing, Ha... what a couple. and talking about the political enemy to Su's faminy - the then prime minister Wang An Sher - this is such a classice person, who conduct the major scale of financial revoloution in the history of Chinese - according to Lin, there are only 4 so call National-Capitalism regime in the Chinese history - Sun Yung / Han Wu Di / Wang Mon and Wang An Sher. Wang is a person who never dress up and focus on the things so deeply that who can leave everything behind. the Sung Ren Chung story is an amazing one : once the King Sung Ren Chung invite his cabinet member to fishing, Wang was one of the fishing party, since he don't like to fish, so he sit aside and eat the fishing decor - noe take one but to finish all the plate. this make King Sung suspesus about this person and reluctant to put him in high / importantant positon, Wang wait more than 20 years before he got what he want from Sung Seng Chung - successor of Sung Ren Chung and begin his " New Deal '. a great writing Ha.
Seeing Fermi at Brother hotel, he is committe to bring AMBA to the training development with me and check what course will make the team solid and grow, I appreciate his believe in me and take it as a good sign for my business - as a matter of fact, the course I am going to bring to AMBA is just what Sunny / New Wide is processing now, this is truly what the corporate need : Communication - an univeral topoic and won't fade away, How to interview talent, again, a reality show , team building in consensus workshop. for certain CEO, it works well - a non competative way of team building..
Going to Sidney's clinic this morning - for the cold and to check the wiered stuff grow on my right neck, I am not comforatable of that.
Fruit is changing, dramatically and with good development, I am so glad to see that.

Jason Mraz in Taipei
If not for showing my " It's OK " face to Jay and Eugenia, I wouldn't been able to appreciate the great music Jason brought to me, yes, at 51, it's hard to be pleased or moved by music - the source I used to drink a lot, but what Jason did last night was so powerful and impactful, I am fully convenience by his musical talent. not from her appearacne - as a matter of fact, he dress down with Cova to demostrate a tramp apporch for this accoustic performance. Jason is so good in commending the stage, utliized his vocal talent and interpretate the love song - or eco / earth song he wrote. I am so pleased to be there for the first half show - yes, due to the low blood suger, I have to leave by 9:30 pm and not able to stay until his signature song " I am yours ", but this is good enough, enought to bring me feeling full and back. and at the same time, my show up means something to the die away friendship.
Attending Esoterism Branding commercial film development meeting with director Shen and founder of Esotersim - Victor / Roger and Steve. the metaphore I illustrate to the brand image of Esoterim is like a Chinese Suchoou garden - a big house with front door semi-open, the outsider sneaking in and check the beauty and mystic scene and eager to get the code to access or to be claim one of the kind.. this is an intersting process and I can see 3 of them holding different direction, Director Shen is good in spot the conflict and call the time out - this is the trouble about " Group Thinking " - the ugly mean to depart from consensuse building.
Vincent Danku and Iren co-work a plan for my next successin project with LB - the company founded by Vincent, I reply with a even decent letter and yes, this is a great start, to prudent plan in the future and take the kick off session after Chines new year and taier after GLC in Singapore. I like it very much.
