Message:

Malaysia just announced an increase of petrol by more than 40%, suddenly everybody is talking ways of reducing costs. Starting from changing to smaller car, or even motorcycle and various methods of consuming less fuel.

However, instead of reacting to the changes, wouldn't it be better to come up with actions that once and for all, able to absorb any changes that are coming up.

There are three ways where one can overcome such challenges

i. Be Creative - by being creative, one can ask fundamental questions of WHY? Maybe it is why this job? why do i need to travel by car? Why i do not car pool with neighbours? Why must be in this line? Why must i work? Why must i stay in this place? etc

2. Create Multiple passive income streams - there are more than one way to get additional income. No, I do not mean getting a second job. Look around you, what service you can offer? Look at yourself, what skills that you have that are wasted? Look at the trend, what is needed?

3. Do something. If you do not have any skills that can be monetised, learn it. It is never too late to start learning a second skill. No, i do not mean get a second degree. I mean, learn for example, blogging, ebay trading, MLM, dancing, cooking etc. Whatever that you like and whatever that many people would love to pay you the money for you to share with them.

Last but not least, be open to new ideas.
