<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">In 2004, I went through the toughest medical
crisis I had encountered so far. At the time, there was so much uncertainty of
how I would turn out physically. My eyesight was at risk. (For a better idea of what I went
through, feel free to visit my Facebook support group where I and many others
have shared our experiences at - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/eyedisease" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/eyedisease</a>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">I had a condition where I risk losing eyesight if
I didn’t have surgery.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would have one
eye surgery to keep me from losing eyesight.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Then three weeks later, the doctor would see that the surgery didn’t
work.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then I would have another
surgery.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They would see that it didn’t
work.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then it would be another one.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then another one.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That lasted for almost a year.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was frustrating and scary with all the
uncertainty. I didn’t know how I was going to turn out and I didn’t know
when I would stop needing surgeries (or when the surgery after surgery after
surgery would end.) </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Pretty much, it was the most fearful crisis not
only because of the uncertainty of <span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">my eyesight in jeopardy</span>,
but there was the domino effect where the medical crisis caused other <span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">problems</span>
such as my job being at jeopardy and therefore my health <span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">coverage</span> from the job
being at jeopardy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Needless to say, I
must keep my health coverage at the time because I did not know when I would
stop needing surgeries.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> In addition, there were nuanced complexities <span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">with my health insurance</span> I had to deal with<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";"> and I had to deal with all that on my own (<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">without family nearby) in Califo<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">rnia</span>.</span></span> </span></span></span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";"> I had to deal with all that</span> while I am scrambling to heal and to come out of the crisis

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Apparently, the solution is healing completely.

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Again, there are many aspects of healing in
addition to medical treatment. (Notice I said in addition to, not in
place of, medical treatment.) Getting the message from God is the most important of these aspects of healing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My medical
crisis in 2004 pushed me to realize the importance of getting the message from
God when you desperately need healing (or desperately need to get out of
another type of crisis).</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“Getting the message” involves doing whatever
the message is indicating. It’s not just hearing the message and not
doing anything (or not changing anything). You have to do whatever it
takes to heal (or get out of the crisis). Start with getting the message
and following the message.</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">There was a message I had been ignoring for at least two years prior to this medical crisis of
2004. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For several years before this
medical crisis, I felt a message from above that was telling me to leave
the comfortable road I was on. At the time, I was working at the most flexible and<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";"> </span>comfortable job (with great benefits) and
therefore, I was unwilling to move on. In my comfort, I had been ignoring
the message telling me to move on elsewhere.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">When the crisis occurred, I was forced to
examine/contemplate what was going on with my life and where I should be going.
During that crisis, I had surgery after surgery. For some of the
surgeries, the doctor ordered me to lie down in a specific position 24/7
(required to increase the chances of regaining and keeping eye sight). Lying down in a specific position 24/7 <span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">forced me</span> to
contemplate, and to talk to God. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"> </span>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Despite my back pain I was re-aggravating from lying down 24/7 in one specific position <span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">(</span>in addition to the excruciating post-surgery pains in
my head and my eye), something good came out of this. It pushed me to
really get the message. It was during these times that moved me to (have
the resolve and) make a promise to act according to the message after healing.
Here’s what I resolved to do or promised to do when (not if, but when) I <span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">heal</span> completely:</span></div>

known. (I will probably explain the "common boulevard" in another lesson/blog.) Quit my job when I am healed or when my condition stabilize.
I am to move on to something else God has in store for me.</span></li>

my life (even though the specifics were not clear at the time).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>What was clear was that I was meant to

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Shortly after deciding this (and making this
promise), I had another surgery. That one was successful and my medical
condition stabilized after this (although it took more months to complete
the recovery fully.)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When my condition
stabilized, I quit my job and got off the “common boulevard”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></div>

aspect of healing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However, it is a
crucial and often neglected part of healing (or of getting out of another type

<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">Anjelah Johnson was a cheerleader for the Oakland Raiders later turned standup Comedian. In the past, she often made fun of Christian rappers for laughs. Little did she know, joke's on her.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">Dan Clark writes in a <a href="http://www.chickensoup.com/book-story/28096/91-never-too-old-to-live-your-dream" target="_blank">short story</a> about his experience in college when he met an eighty-year-old student, Rose. Rose was cheery, humorous, and full of life. She was also full of wisdom from her life experiences. Dan Clark and Rose became good friends.</span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">“Every day for the next three months we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I was always mesmerized listening to this “time machine” as she shared her wisdom and experience with me,” wrote Clark.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">Rose’s vibrant personality along with her wisdom did not only appeal to Clark, but she was magnetically attracting attention everywhere on campus. As Clark wrote, “Over the course of the school year, Rose became a campus icon and easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she reveled in the attention bestowed upon her from other students. She was living it up.”</span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">One lesson from Rose that stood out the most to Clark was from her speech at a football banquet. </span><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline;"> </span><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">One of the most important point in that speech was: You have to have a dream [especially one tied to a greater purpose]. </span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">“You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. <b>We have so many people walking around who are dead and they don’t even know it!</b>” exclaimed Rose with the attention of the whole audience.</span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">Rose also noted a second point: When you have a dream and purpose you are striving toward, you should also “laugh and find humor each and every day.”</span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">We need to continue playing in this game of life. This was a third important point in Rose’s speech. “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing.” </span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">We need to continue to get better and better every day in this game of life, I like to add. (Also, it’s more about getting better than yourself - the self yesterday, last month, and last year rather than better than someone else.) If we want to be happy, we need to have progress and not be stagnant. </span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">“If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don’t do one productive thing, you will [just] turn twenty years old. If I am eighty-seven years old and stay in bed for a year and never do anything I will turn eighty-eight.” This is how you would become more and more miserable. </span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-bff5b218-6798-8429-64a6-da67b5aec2e0" style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">Just turning one year older doesn’t do anything. It’s when you change for the better having progress in some area; that’s what you need to do. If you just turn one year older year after year, with no improvement, no progress, and nothing to show for that year, you will not just be one year older, but you will be a little bit more miserable. If that’s the case year after year, the misery will multiply and you will end up a lot more miserable. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">Also, what you do and the progress you make should NOT be in an area determined by society, by anyone else, or by your ego (which is influenced by everyone else). What you do and your progress should be in an area determined by you and God (and no one else). </span></div>

Technology is a big part of our lives and we often come across technical problems. The following is a solution for a common problem when you are watching a video on your computer from a website and it doesn't play. If it's a flash video, the following steps would most likely solve the problem:<br />
<br />
<br />
1. Go to - <a href="http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html">http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html</a><br />
<br />
2. Click "Delete Websites"<br />
<br />
3. Then go to - <a href="http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager08.html">http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager08.html</a><br />
<br />
4. Click "Reset License Files"<br />
<br />
5. That should solve the problem. If not, just try opening that website in another browser (Firefox, Chrome, or Safari).<br />

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">A few weeks ago, I went into my Google Drive and opened an important folder (that contains years of my work) only to find that it's completely empty. I started to panic and tried different things. The following is what I did before all my files appeared again and I suggest you try this:</span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">1. Click "Refresh" on the browser. (You can alternatively press the "F5" key if on a PC.) Most likely, this alone will make your files appear again.</span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">2. Log out of Google. </span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">3. Clear cache and history on your browser.</span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">4. Check your internet connection and make sure your internet connection is not intermittent (on and off). Test other websites and application requiring internet connection to make sure there's no problem with your internet connection. [If you suddenly lose connection to the internet, naturally your Google Drive folder will appear empty because your files are stored online and not in your computer.]</span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">5. Restart your computer.</span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">6. Go into your Google Drive again. </span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">7. If you still don't see your files, click "refresh" on your browser again.</span></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline;">After You Recover Your Files and Folders and Google Drive, Do the Following</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">For important folders and files that you put on, keep a backup elsewhere such as on your desktop computer or on a USB hard drive. </span></div>
<br />
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 24.444444444444446px; vertical-align: baseline;">Although my Google Drive is the free 15GB version, this sudden disappearance of files happened also to people with the PAID version of Google Drive, as I've searched them out online. Therefore, I strongly recommend that you have backup copies of your files elsewhere, even if you have the paid version of Google Drive.</span></div>

If I want to be free, I got to be me. Not the me that you think I should be. Not the me that my wife or husband thinks I should be. <br />
<br />
Not the me that people stereotypically thinks that an Asian man, a black woman, a black man, an Asian woman, a white woman, a Latina, a Latino, ... or a white man should be. Not the me that my kids think I should be. If I got to be free, I got to be me. But I better know who "me" is. The best way to know that is to connect to the Creator and keep asking Him.<br />

(His mom died while giving birth to Francis. His step-mother died in a car accident. His dad died of cancer when he was twelve.)

I'm not going to let them outside because the sun has bad rays... You just live your life in this - I don't want to do anything crazy for God. I just want to go to church and give maybe 2%, and may be serve/help the nursery (because I feel guilty.) You do this your whole life. Your greatest prayer is, "God, I would love to die in my sleep and not even feel it, and I would love to go to heaven."</span></div>

Do you think you will be happy and fulfilled just pursuing a safe comfortable life with money, a nice house, a nice car, a nice family with kids, and nice vacations periodically? Is this typical pursuit really going to make you happy when you obtain all of it? For those who already have attained all of these, are they truly fulfilled and happy? Not that we shouldn’t have this comfort and security. However, is there something else, something greater than yourself you should also pursue, alongside working for these necessities and amenities of life? How can you pursue something greater that would ironically also provide all these necessities and security in the long run? How can going where the majority does not, provide greater fulfillment (while also providing the lesser necessities and amenities most people pursue)? Are you currently going where the majority is going? Are you okay with that? If not, what do you need to do to change directions?</span><br />

This was also true when Jesus was physically down here on earth with us. Jesus came across some people who were not considered to be of God, but Jesus was amazed at their faith. (<a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+8%3A5+-+13&version=NIV" target="_blank">Matthew 8: 5 - 13</a>; <a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+15%3A21-28&version=NIV" target="_blank">Matthew 15: 21- 28</a>)</span></div>

Faith is belief, but it's more than that. In addition to belief, it's a knowing, but it's even more than that. It's also an absolute certainty. More than that, it's an expectation that what you know will come about, especially with God by your side. </span></div>

The drug is more likely to work if you have faith (a knowing and an expectation) that it will work. Believe it or not, it has actually been shown in studies that your expectation (or faith) in a drug actually can affect how well it works on you. They call this the placebo effect in science. Some studies have even shown that your negative expectation (or belief that the drug will not work) may actually decrease the effect, or effectiveness, of the drug. </span></div>

When you lack faith, you block God from working in your life. Then you say, "There is no God in my life," and you would be right, but that's your fault.</span></div>

He is ready to give when you are ready to receive. You have to be receptive and have faith deep within you subconsciously, consciously, preconsciously, unconsciously, and whatever other levels of mind there are. But this is the tricky part - getting that faith ingrained deep in you at every level. (It's not just saying you have faith, as many do but it's just all talk.) </span></div>

"Minding the millimeter" is a very important principle
you must understand in many areas of life.
It's something you need to understand if you are dealing with diseases
such as eye disease where your eye sight is in jeopardy (which I had experienced). It is something you must
understand if you are building a business, running a business, or fixing a
sinking business. You need to understand
this principle if you are training in sports, especially professional sports. It's also important to understand this if you
are developing software or writing code.
Whatever outcome you are striving toward, you need to understand the
importance of minding the millimeter. </div>
<div class="Body">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body">
So, what exactly is minding the millimeter? Minding the millimeter, to put it simply, is
minding or attending to the seemingly minor things that do not seem to matter
much. However, the "minor"
things add up to (or multiply into<span lang="ZH-TW">)</span> major problems.
The other<span lang="ZH-TW"> </span>end is also true where, if you attend to
the right "minor" things, they add up to the major accomplishment or
outcome you are aiming for.<br />

When people suffer from a loss (such as loss of eye sight from a
disease, loss in business, loss in sports, or failure in school), often it
may have been prevented if they did not neglect the millimeters, or <span lang="ZH-TW">the
seemingly </span>minor things<span lang="ZH-TW">.</span> (Or they could've had a better chance if they did not neglect the millimeters.) Although
neglecting the millimeter is usually not the sole cause of the problem, it is
usually a contributing factor. <span lang="ZH-TW">Again, I
must reemphasize that</span> minor things add up or multiply into major
things. Therefore, minding the
millimeter is a crucial principle to put to practice in many areas of life, to<span lang="ZH-TW"> prevent
crises</span> and to keep from disaster (or at least improve your chances). <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">The importance of minding every millimeter is
apparent in other areas such as in the sport of bike racing.
Mark Cavendish </span><span lang="ZH-TW" style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">(</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">professional cyclist and winner of many stages of
major bike races such as the Tour de France and </span><span lang="ZH-TW" style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">the </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Tour
de Britain</span><span lang="ZH-TW" style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">)</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"> is
known to mind every small adjustment on his bike and in his training, down to
the millimeter literally.
"<a href="http://blog.dickssportinggoods.com/2015/07/le-tour-de-france-how-oakleys-jawbreaker-has-completely-taken-over-in-the-peloton" target="_blank">Cavendish is well known for being completely obsessed with every detail in his preparation, paying close attention to everything from his wattage output to adjusting his saddle position a fraction of a millimeter</a>,” as
one online sports blog stated. </span></div>
<br />
<div class="Body">
Mark Cavendish is not alone as many past winners of the Tour
de France also mind the millimeter adjustments. Every millimeter and every gram on the bike
counts. Every second matters. Athletes who perform at the highest
level in other sports are also just as meticulous in the smallest adjustments. In other sports such as running or swimming, a fraction of a second
may mean the difference between a bronze medal and no medal at all.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="Body">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body">
<i>Even one millimeter or one fraction of a second matters. It can mean the difference between getting a medal and losing a medal.</i><br />
<br />
Phil Jackson, the former basketball coach who has won ten NBA championships, taught his players this importance of not neglecting the small things. He told them that <a href="https://youtu.be/LhsJde3W1Qc?t=19m24s" target="_blank">a war is lost on a single nail of a ship</a>. Apparently, this was programmed into the mind of Michael Jordan (the most notable player coached by Jackson). Michael Jordan won all six of his NBA championships under the leadership of Phil Jackson.<br />
<br />
Even after Jordan retired from basketball and now running his own multi-million dollar company, <a href="https://youtu.be/kKKJ294rkck?t=6m12s" target="_blank">he assures that the smallest details of the products with the Jordan brand are up to his standards</a>. Also, he applies this same principle of minding the millimeter to other business entities he owns. Unbeknownst to many, Michael Jordan after retiring from basketball has now become just as successful in business as he was a basketball player. As a matter of fact, Jordan's net worth has risen astronomically from when he had retired completely from the NBA. While most retired professional athletes' net worth do not change much, Jordan's impressive business performance increased his net worth so much that he has become a billionaire recently. ( He was a multimillionaire as an athlete, but became a billionaire as a business man. I do not know of any other professional athlete who became a billionnaire ten years after their retirement.) Jordan's habit of minding the millimeter allowed him to produce intended results in basketball as well as in business.<br />
<div class="Body">
<div>
<br /></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="Body">
Likewise, many of you are also great at your work in solving problems or in
building something, and you understand exactly how the minor factors can
synergistically add up (or multiply).
Others of you understand this for other areas in your life, and you are
great with those areas of your life. </div>
<div class="Body">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body">
However, those of you who understand how this principle applies to your work neglect this when it comes to
another area, such as your health (or the medical problem you're dealing with)
whether it is eye disease, a severe infection of an organ, or another disease. You neglect this principle of minding the
millimeter, and you erroneously think, "What does it matter? It's only one small thing."<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/TvCkMCSc9UM/0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/TvCkMCSc9UM/0.jpg" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body">
As a result, you suffer unnecessarily, or you lose. For example, the eye patient who (after
retinal detachment surgery) neglects one small thing such as adhering closely
to the doctor's instructions of what position to lie down and for how
long. Or the patient not following the doctor's exact instructions in how to take the post-surgery eye drops, how
frequently to take them, and when to stop.
Another example would be the patient neglecting overall health and
nutritional practices (like adequate intake of fruits and vegetables known to
be good for overall health and health of the eyes) because he thinks such
indirectly related factors or "minor" factors don't matter. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body">
</div>
<div class="Body">
When unexpected complications occur after the eye patient neglect
a millimeter here and a millimeter there, they end up losing eyesight. Neglecting small things may contribute to
losing big.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body">
Is it for certain that minding every significant millimeter would solve a
problem or allow you to produce the desired outcome? No, it's not a guarantee, but it
significantly improves your chances if you mind the millimeter. Nothing in life is a guarantee. A professional athlete training for a
championship is not guaranteed to win the gold medal, but it would be foolish
for him to neglect the training and neglect the millimeter adjustments just
because there's no guarantee.
Unfortunately, people have the foolish logic of not minding the
millimeter just because there's no guarantee. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body">
</div>
<div class="Body">
As foolish as this is in sports, it's even more foolish to
neglect this principle of minding the millimeter when it comes to dealing with
your medical problem, especially when what's at stake is losing or keeping your
eyesight, or when it's life or death. <o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
Another reason for this common fallacy (or error in thinking) is that one adjustment in itself or a small millimeter in itself does not solve the problem and therefore, why bother. This logic is flawed. <br />
<br />
In the cases of the professional cyclists, they mind the millimeter adjustments even though any one small adjustment by itself does not directly make an impact. Again, all the small adjustments would add up or multiply, to make an impact indirectly or directly.<br />
<br />
Maybe you are a computer programmer and you know that neglecting, or leaving out, a little part of the code can mean major problems, such as the whole application not working at all. Leaving out a small part of the code in one place, neglecting another small part here, and adding a wrong part there - would all add up to disaster. This is apparent if you are a good computer programmer or developer. Therefore, you are mindful of any "small" part of the code.<br />

shows a thirty-year-old man, Rechaud, who has severely stuttered speech for most of his
life and how he was guided by Anthony Robbins to think back and remember the
time when his speech impediment started.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The stuttering man remembered the time when he was around three years
old when he watched a cartoon in the mornings where one of the characters with a
speech impediment often yelled for help.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>During this time of this man’s early life, his father was physically
beating his mom.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As a child, he
subconsciously started stuttering which presented a problem to distract his
father from physically beating his mother.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

stuttering started.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Let me be clear in case there’s any misunderstanding. Not everyone will get results this quickly with just one step. Some will, but not everyone will. In other words, I am not saying that this exercise in remembering (and writing) is all you need to stop addictions or stuttering in all cases. Not at all. I am merely saying that this exercise is one step or one part of a whole set of strategies. Although this stuttering man was cured with this one step, many will require additional strategies. This is especially true with patterns like addictions. If you are trying to break your pattern of any type of addiction, this exercise in remembering should not replace conventional medical treatment. <b>Instead, it should be used in addition to conventional and medically recognized treatment.</b> <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="mso-fareast-language: ZH-HK;"><o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

I know this may sound cliché, but I strongly recommend that
you talk to God.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Ask God for help.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>What do you have to lose?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The times when I was in this place, I felt
that there’s nothing left I can do and so, I talk to God.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If only people know how practical this is (and more than just a cliche.)<o:p></o:p></div>

As you continuously talk to God, you will realize more and
more of what you can do.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then, you need
to do your part.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you don’t know what
you can do, you should keep asking God for guidance and you need to keep
establishing a relationship with Him.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As
you establish a father-child relationship with God, start doing what you can do
and God will do what you can’t do.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He
will control what you can’t control.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As
you go on with this, the sun will rise.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">Lebron James decided to return to the Cleveland Cavaliers. If Cleveland is more important to him than
winning another championship, that would be the right choice. If winning another championship is more
important for him, I would say that his chances of doing so in Miami are better
(despite Miami’s loss this year). The high
performance battleship that is the Miami Heat will need to be rebuilt after
these major parts (LeBron and possibly others) are gone. (So, Miami
will probably not win another championship any time soon.) However, as long as Spoestra and Riley are
the head engineer and captain, they can rebuild it into a ship just as good and
possibly even better, in time.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: small;">Many endeavors in life are like the goal of winning a
championship. You need to build a
vehicle (a high performance one) to get you there. It will take time, hardwork, and collective
effort. It’s never only about just one
star player (as good and essential as he may be). Although they are pivotal
to the success of a team, they are replaceable.
Although it may take some time to find the right stars, there are plenty
of stars in the sky. Nonetheless, it
will take some time (and the right coaches and/or leaders) to get the potential stars to shine to their
maximum brightness. Kawhi Leonard, this year's MVP of the Spurs, is the perfect case and point. This young star is shining so brightly because of all the mentors and coaches around him, in addition being on the right ship (for him and the right culture of that ship/team.)</span></div>

The forty years were over, and it was time to enter the Promised Land already.<br />
<br />
The Israelites roamed in the desert for forty years before they entered the Promised Land. It was their own fault because they let the yeast of worldly thinking to crush their own faith (when they saw the Nephilim giants) and they convinced themselves that it wasn’t possible to attain the Promised Land. They doubted despite all the miracles God had performed in getting them out of dire circumstances. Their doubt caused them to roam needlessly in the desert for forty years without getting in the Promised Land.<br />
<br />
The forty years in the desert are over. Let’s enter the Promised Land already. You’ve witnessed God’s amazing abilities time and time again (even though you tend to forget). Stop doubting and have faith to just go for it. Stay away from the yeast of “normal” thinking or the yeast of worldly logic. Do everything it takes to go for it, even if it seems very risky and even if it seems that you’d have a lot to lose.<br />
<br />
Most likely, you would have less to lose than the Israelites. The Promised Land was occupied by ancient giants who were at least two feet taller than them and were much bigger than them. Also, the giants most likely carried much bigger swords than them. These giants had a history of abominable practices. By all worldly logic, these giants would devour the Israelites. As the Israelites said faithlessly but understandably, “Our wives and children will be taken as plunder. Wouldn’t it be better for us to go back to Egypt?” If the ancient giants devoured them, their men would all be killed also. <br />
<br />
You see, the Israelites most likely had a lot more to lose than you. Yet, they were still considered faithless because God was on their side as demonstrated in so many miracles. Despite all the miracles, the Israelites didn’t trust God because of they had so much to lose and because of their fear. Because of this, a whole generation of them died in the desert without seeing the Promised Land.<br />
<br />
Most likely, you have much less to lose. So, just go for it. “Give it all you got. Don’t hold nothing back.” Make sure you have God with you and just go for it. You can’t afford not to. You can’t afford another 40 years in the desert. You don’t want to die in the desert in your old age (metaphorically speaking), as did the whole generation of Israelites who doubted. Stay away from the yeast of the norm.<br />

Use what works (from various sources and teachers)... Add what's uniquely your own. This video (of less than three minutes) shows you how this simple philosophy will make you more successful in any area of your focus - whether it is writing, business, athletics, art, studying,... Also, LL Cool J and Manny Pacquiao are in this video.<br />

Some people drain you of your energy. You could be completely drained and fatigued because of seeing a number of these people during the day. You think it's from lack of sleep. Then, evening comes and all it took was seeing one person and you are completely energized. How do you explain that? Shouldn't you be more tired after a long day if it was just simply lack of sleep?<br />
<br />
<br />BE COGNIZANT OF THE ENERGY (OR DRAINAGE OF ENERGY) BROUGHT BY PEOPLE AND PLACES. MORE IMPORTANTLY, BE AWARE OF THE ENERGY YOU BRING.<br />
<br />
Here's a simple writing exercise for you to do in your journal daily (or however frequently you want to do this.) Write down and describe the places to which you've been today. Describe your energy level. Write down the people you came across today and describe your energy while you were in the same proximity of these people.<br />

David Neeleman who has ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) struggled through school when he was young. However, his ADHD turned out to be a gift when he directed his hyperactive creativity toward building something great for consumers while keeping costs low for them. This allowed him to innovatively build four successful airlines.<br />
