Do you believe in Feng Shui? I do believe in it and I gave myself a chance to learn by attending a 3day free Feng Shui course online to have a better understanding. Despite the course being free, it does provide a lot of insight and value. The master was very charismatic and the main selling point for his methods is the ability to be in synchrony with the current way of living. He debunked many old-fashioned methods that had no proper basis and highlighted that Feng Shui is not about superstition. I used to feel a slight disappointment towards those who are too deeply involved in such believes because I did not understand the basis of it and it had no logic to it. However, what the mind does not know, the eyes will not see and the heart will never accept. I had a lot of doubts when I was dating my other half because his background involves believing in these things that I often thought were non-scientific and silly. I also often tell him if the Feng shui master is able to use Feng Shui to change the lives of people for the better, why do they themselves need to keep working and earning money via giving Feng shui advices?
The last 3days, master Louis Loh have successfully changed
my general outlook. First of all, he has encounter people like me during his
consultations with his clients. He shared that people with my mindset have a
misconception that no effort or work is needed in order to have a better life
and this sort of mindset is not a growth mindset. With Feng Shui knowledge we
still need to take action and execute the needful to improve our lives. Of all
the things he said, I love the concept of value the most. He mentioned that
long lasting relationships are built on the foundations of value. Ask yourself
what value can you bring to others? People of value will also attract a lot of noblemen
(贵人)into
their lives because value is always bidirectional and it is also a form of
energy. I never thought that all those noblemen who crossed path with me was
because I was also providing value and this knowledge is a driving force for me
to ensure I engage myself in continuous self-improvement.
The effects of being a person of value is remarkable as I
witness obvious changes that happened to me instantly when I tried being kinder
and enhanced my situational awareness at work. Instead of just doing my work
and putting a blind eye towards a colleague from a different department that seems
to be struggling with intravenous line setting on an awake patient (I
personally never like to do procedures on an awake person as I am so used to
the pool of patients who are well sedated in the intensive care or operating
room), I offered my help and it does feel good internally when my help did a
positive impact. The first impact was on the patient, she did not have to
endure being poked multiple times. The second impact was on me, I felt good to
be able to help and it boosted my confidence in using the ultrasound for
difficult intravenous line and lastly, I think the colleague was appreciative
because her job is done and she do not have to continuously apologize to the
patient whenever she could not cannulate the vein. It was just a simple act and
did not take more than 5minutes of my time.
Having done that, I think the universe wanted to challenge
me further. At 4am when I was able to get some shut eye moment, I was woken up
by a phone call to attend to a patient which was not in my care or responsibility.
The colleague that was supposed to attend the patient seems to divert the call
to me and I did not question why and immediately went to the patient's bedside.
It was an infant about 7kg in weight and there were difficulties getting a
blood gas as he did not have an arterial line (It is a catheter in the artery
to facilitate blood taking and continuous blood pressure monitoring). I was
contemplating should I try to insert an arterial line in such a small infant? (My
hesitation was due to fear of complications besides I am not the one who was supposed
to attend to the patient but I understand that job roles are not clearly
outlined at times especially when it is after the office hours). I flip the
notes and found that it was the same patient whom I inserted the arterial line
a month ago and decided to give it a go. Thankfully in that sleep deprived
state with the guidance of ultrasound, I was able to put in the cannula on the
second attempt and again received words of appreciation from the nurses.
4 hours later received a text asking "did you insert
the arterial line?" and my stomach starts to twist, I was thinking did I
caused a complication such as a hematoma since it was not a procedure where I
had succeeded on the first attempt. Moreover, I think it is an issue related
with confidence as I do not handle infants on a regular basis and tend to be
hypervigilant when I do handle them so leading to the assumption of something
had went wrong. In the end my colleague just wanted to thank me and I reminded
myself to have a more positive outlook next time or in the long run this career
is bound to affect my health. Having done a few things that have added value
during my shift, I was rewarded by a phone call from the Growth Valley stating
that my question has been selected and they will provide a free consultation to
help me out. I was thrilled and felt waves after waves of gratitude.
Tonight, is going to be quite special because I am going to
attend the Unsinkable Super Conference. I decided to check it out since it has
a lot of the familiar authors of self-help books which have accompanied me all
my life. I do not know how or why but I seem to chance upon the free eBook
"Bounce Back Big" by Sonia Ricotti and that led to me watching the
"Unsinkable" movie and now I am all ready for the super conference. I
do subscribe to emails from the Law of Attraction but hardly have time to read
the things they sent me but this time I did and found a treasure. Everything is
falling into place beautifully even at the face of hardships and adversities. I
feel loved and I will continue to exude love in my daily living and bring value
to myself and others.
