There is NO FAILURE, ONLY FEEDBACK

In the previous post, we have read about Susan Boyle, an inspirational 47 years old woman that prove many critics and skeptics very wrong, and announce to the world that “Everything Is Possible“. She has instantly became an Inspirational source for many. She has proved to us that everyone can succeed, if they have beliefs in themselves.

If we can have the same beliefs they do, we will have the ability to produce the same results in our lives.

However, many a times, talents have been discouraged to pursue their dreams due to negative comments, and “labeling”. Many were labeled as “Failures” whether directly or indirectly.

To be successful, we need to believe that there are “NO Failures”, there is only “Feedback”.

Let’s check out another recent video from Britain’s Got Talent (BGT) and see how 12 years old Shaheen treat turn a “not-so-positive comment/gesture” into a “Feedback” to give a world class performance.

Many of us (even adults) would crumple at the gesture and comments given by Simon Cowell (one of the judge). He said: “i think you have got it all wrong!”

Shaheen proves everyone wrong by believing he can do it!

PS: Let me know your thoughts on it. I would love to hear from you.

Most Inspirational Video EVER – Susan Boyle (Britain’s Got Talent)

Hello everyone,

If you have not heard about “Susan Boyle” yet, i trust you will be very glad to read about this blogpost. Her video in YouTube has been viewed more than 25 millions time (that is 25,000,000 ++ times) after it has been posted just 7 days ago! A day ago when i watched it @ 1am in morning, i had “goose pimples” and my body was shivering…when i watched the 2nd and 3rd time, the effect was still electrifying! Simply Awesome!

Yesterday, i showed it to my O Levels Sec 4 Chemistry Class and i trust many have been overwhelmed by Susan’s performance and belief system. None of them were skeptical or cynical about plain-jane Susan. In fact couple of them ask me about the name of “Susan Boyle” so they can share with friends and family.

We have heard of different ways and

O Levels Chemistry Tips & Exam Strategies – What Keeps This Blog Going

Many of my friends (many from the Research Chemical Industry) and students always asked me this question when they see me:

“What Keeps You Continuously & Religiously Blogging About Chemistry Tips, Phenomenons & Exam Strategies?”

“Why don’t you spend your time coaching more students through more classes and workshops?”

“Don’t you feel tired committing your time to stay in front of computer to blog so regularly?” etc…

Very good questions they asked..Yes..there are times i was contemplating to stop blogging so religiously..especially whenever i received Negative Comments and Abuses from some readers negative chaps out there….not sure their purpose thou…

Over the last 12 years, I have helped many students on 1-on-1 Customized Coaching, Small Group Coaching, Concepts Classes, Topic-based Mastery Workshops and Intensive Revision Bootcamps. The size gets bigger and bigger and i am helping more and more students..but there is still this thing known as Size-Constraint and Geographical-Constraint.

Without this Chemistry Blogsite, i will not be able to realise my goals of reaching out to ALL Chemistry Students and helping them globally…i suppose the internet (via blog) is one of the best platform i can do so.

Besides that, there are also many encouragements that i received from readers of this blog: parents, students, educators, scientists, researchers, etc..and whenever i received such Positive Comments from them, it is always the HIGHLIGHT of my day.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank those that have sent me encouraging words for the last 3 months (Jan – March 09):

Dear Sean Chua,

Thank you very much but unfortunately I am unable to attend the workshop. It becomes difficult for me to come due to transport fares from Uganda to that end. I appreciate for the efforts you have so far made (in your blog) to make my daughter pass CHEM!!

Thank you very much.
Regards,
Mum, Uganda

Dear Sir,
