Advertising And Promotion

Today people advertise and promote themselves to the utmost
but ultimately accomplish and deliver little or nothing.
When it comes to words
they are indestructible giants
When it comes to deeds
they are faltering midgets.

I am wondering what is your reference for this post. It can not be all advertising and promotion. Our ountry, even the Asian Cultures is about ideas and the sharing of ideas.

Hi Madam -

Who can share without having their hand out or having a price-tag attached anymore ? Advertising or promoting oneself for someone else's labors seems to be a sin as far as I'm concerned...and quite a nasty one at that. Nothing wrong with ideas and the sharing of them. I am a strong believer in sharing. I have said before that I don't mind sharing, I don't mind people taking from me, and I don't even really mind if people steal from me. What I have trouble with is what they do with the stuff they take or steal. I can't tell you what my reference for this post is because you'll say I'm being nasty again...so I'll keep quiet for the time being :-)))

Best Regards Madam

Is your concern that I have learned from you all of thee years and now I am building a business from what you have taught me?
Truly, Madam B

Madam B -

Maybe that is a slight concern, but only because I want you to do well and not fall into the same marketing schemes as many of the phonies have fallen into. Your business is not what I am concerned about...what I'm concerned about is if you will be able to compete with the marketeers out there...or will you buckle under and turn into one of them. I hope you can keep your integrity and I pray that you never become a "master" and tarnish the beauty of Chinese metaphysics. Can you do it Madam B ?

Hi,
This world of CM is make of packages and advertisment,the more
lavish it's the more people believe
in their knowledge(i wonder really
do they can deliver)or are they
'blowing water'(chui sui).
For them,pls do not do belittle
effort(mah how pow)analysis and make it up after everthing happen,do prediction in future in
accuracy 8 out of 10 person that one do not know.
Ai yah,i don't think they have the
courage to accept the challange even to do one prediction in one
year only.

Hello and thank you for your comments. You are correct. There are not many people involved in CM that have the courage to make predictions or analyze an event before the fact. They are definitely "blowing water". I have offered to match a minimum of $5,000 USD with any master or practitioner on this planet and if they can be 80% accurate they walk away with the money. I made this offer several years ago and I made it again recently, and I am making it again now. Not one single person has accepted my offer.

Hi KWWong -

Nice to hear from you. I hope all is well. Ok, now we have a minimum of $10,000 :-))) That's the spirit. I think our money is very safe.

Very Best Wishes
