Publishing an eBook in Malaysia is more challenging than climbing Mt. Kota Kinabalu

  Today, I want to talk about writing or publishing an ebook from Malaysia. I've been trying for a few months, and from time to time, it's more challenging than climbing Mount Kinabalu. I have a few points that I want to share with you. If you are looking to publish an ebook to build your brand name, your personal IP, or any other purposes hope this will be helpful to you. 3 Popular Online Bookstores So, let's start off with how do you publish an ebook? The first way to publish e-books is via Google Play Store. Why do I recommend Google Play Store as the first choice? Because Google Play Store are the main Android system being used worldwide. Without having a second thought, by publishing your ebook into Google Play Store, you will ultimately get the widest coverage. Even if you are an iOS user, you can still download the Google Play Book onto your phone or iPad to read it. I'll come back to the challenges related to Google Play Store later, but here you go. This is the

Rich people act in spite of fear. Poor people let fear stop them

When I am travelling, I do carry a book with me all the time. I was flipping through some pages of Secrets of the Millionaire Mind by T. Harv Eker and I saw this statement. Action is a bridge between the inner world and the outer world. It is important to think, but, it is equally important to act. Be it right or not so the right move. Without action, there is no improvement. Do you agree with me?

Learning does not need to be in the classroom

Learning can be anywhere. Once upon a time, a wise man told me, "when a student is ready, the teacher will appear". I did not understand the real meaning of this statement. But today, I have a new interpretation of this statement. There were some technical challenges in that I couldn't prepare the classroom to conduct a full day of training. In the end, we spend the whole day sitting in the pantry (next to the toilet), without an LCD projector or a proper classroom arrangement. This is the satisfied faces from the class. Sometimes, it is not about the song, it is about the singer. Sometimes, it is not about the movie, it is about the actor. Most of the time, it is about ourselves. I hope life does not throw me too many lemons, although I can make lemon juice. But when it does happen, I can only make more lemon juice.

I bought a car from MyTukar

It has been almost 10 years since I didn't own a car and recently due to work requirements, I need to get a car. It was supposed to be an easy task but due to last month's buying rush for cars before government impose SST again, all the new orders will have a waiting period of a minimum of 3 months to 6 months.  Therefore, I decided to buy a used car. Finally, I got the chance to experience it as a consumer of the latest so-called using technology to enhance buying used car experiences from start-up companies such as Carsome or MyTukar.   Both platforms have their own pros and cons. However, I am going to jump straight to the end result and share with you my last moment with MyTukar in Puchong Headquarters to collect my car. I believe all these companies did a great job providing fresh new experiences to consumers buying a used car just like buying a new car. At least, the place where you "shop" for a car is a really nice and bright environment. If you compare it to a
