| Date It Right! : Personal Date Selection for Businesses
Source : SME
By : Dato' Joey Yap
We know how Murphy’s Law goes: everything that can go wrong, will go wrong. Your keynote presentation crashes. The catering is bad. A deal falls through. Some of these things you and your business can walk away from, but some have devastating results. That said, whether the outcome is negligible or terrible, why start off any business venture with the spectre of negativity hanging over it? Why tempt Murphy’s Law?

| Feng Shui for Bathrooms
Source : Creative Home
By : Dato Joey Yap
In the olden days, it was common for families to have their toilets and bathrooms built as a separate structure from the house. As such, it was not really a major concern as to how the bathroom would affect the Feng Shui of their property. Fast forward to modern times when it has become a necessary convenience to have bathrooms built within the house. Most people immediately assume that toilets flush away wealth and emit negative Qi. As a matter of fact, toilets are modern amenities that are typically clean. They do not cause any problems in terms of bad Qi. Now, this is not to say that the location of bathrooms is not significant in Feng Shui for there are several aspects that one needs to observe and consider.

| Decoding Outcomes in Life with Qi Men Dun Jia
Source : SME
By : Dato Joey Yap
Qi Men Dun Jia – or Qi Men, in its abbreviated form – is one of the oldest known Chinese Metaphysical sciences. Despite being so well established, Qi Men does not really get the recognition it deserves. Over the centuries, its secrets have remained guarded. Even as recently as a decade ago, there was not much published literature available for the common reader, even in the Chinese speaking world. It is this lack of accessibility combined with the cryptic omplexity of Qi Men that has prevented it from earning the respect and appreciation it rightfully deserves. Until recently, only those studying under the direct tutelage of a Qi Men master have been able to benefit from this ancient art.

Yet the "other" Art of War is not as widely preached and remain a niche component of Chinese Metaphysics.

It is natural for most people to want to be rich. There is nothing wrong in wanting more money in life or aspiring to be rich. Let's face it, no one aspires to be poor. Society has created a perception that fengshui is about money and nothing else - from placing the "waving cat" on the cash register of shops and the "money frog" under the table to the practice of so-called secrets of fengshui formulas. People are constantly bombarded with information on how to get rich by using fengshui.Many well-known tycoons in Hong Kong and Taiwan have used fengshui, thus perpetuating the view that it is all about making millions.

| Feng Shui Made Easy
Source : Renonation
By : Dato Joey Yap
Before accessing the interior of a property, a classically trained Feng Shui practitioner will begin by first accessing the exterior of the property – namely the surrounding landforms. Traditionally called Luan Tou or Forms in modern terms, these Forms will help indicate the type and quality of Qi found in the surrounding area of the property. The Feng Shui practitioner will determine if the landform is positive or negative and whether the flow is blocked or free flowing. Aside from evaluating the Forms of a property, a Feng Shui practitioner must also consider the formulas that dictate the way in which the energy map of an area is calculated and drawn. Using these formulas, the practitioner is then able to assess the quality of the Qi of the area and thus be able to make a full Feng Shui analysis by studying these Forms and using the Formulas presented before them. Additionally, they are then able to focus their attention on the property itself and concentrate their attention on the three more important areas, namely the main door area, the kitchen and the bedroom.

Property is considered one of the perennial favourites when it comes to investing. This is due to the fact that there is a strong possibility for property values to rise in the market, generating quick capital gains as a result. On top of that, you can get a steady flow of income out of the property through monthly rentals if you choose to rent it out. It all sounds easy assuming you already have the capital to indulge in property investment but the main problem of course is determining whether or not the property you invest in has the potential to grow in terms of value and demand.

Feng Shui today is very much a word that people would associate as a practice in understanding if a home, property or general area is considered 'good' or 'bad', 'auspicious' and 'inauspicious'. These terms get thrown around so much so that we tend to lose logic and rationale in the rush to make Feng Shui more approachable. That is why it is always important to understand why Feng Shui is not just about making money or enhancing 'good luck'. For starters, there is a need to ask three simple questions when studying a property and its land - what exactly is bad, how bad it is, and why is it bad to begin with.

| Understanding Feng Shui Audits
Source : iProperty (July Issue)
By : Dato Joey Yap
Before understanding what a Feng Shui audit entails, one has to first understand what ‘Feng Shui' is. An ancient art and science originating from China with its origins shrouded in myth and folklore, it dates back to at least 3000 years although some sources indicate it can be traced as far back as 5000 years ago. The ancient Chinese believed that the energies or forces in a land could either make or break a kingdom. These energies, known as Qi, are everywhere and permeate everything. It is a natural phenomenon of the living environment and can be likened to a flow of energy around as well as through the body, forming a cohesive, functioning unit. As such, it became important to be able to tap and harness the Qi of the living environment in order to help endeavours in life.

In last month's article, I talked about how a person's BaZi Chart (Four Pillars of Destiny) can be used to categorise people. Each person has many different qualities and they have one of five BaZi Structures. This month, I want to share with you some insight into handling each of these five Structure types when the person in question is going through a period of 'extreme' behaviour. This occurrence is caused by an imbalance in the elements in the persons BaZi chart. When this happens, the person in question becomes very difficult to handle.

Personality profiling and performance predicting tests have now become standard within large corporations and multinationals. There is no end to the systems that have been developed for this task; you may be familiar with the Jung-Myers-Briggs assessment, DISC profiling or even the Kiersey Temperament Sorter. Employers are always looking for systems that will allow them to understand what a person is good and bad at with a simple endgame: to put the right people in the right job positions so that a company may capitalize on the skills of its employees with maximum efficiency. If you put someone suited to research into a managerial position, for example, then you can expect problems.

The ability of a business to own its own building or build a headquarters is universally seen as indication of the business or organisation's achievement, success and of course, a symbol of prestige. Being the CEO or MD at the helm of a company or organization when it achieves the financial heft to own its own building or build its own building (or move into a bigger building) is not just a great achievement. It's an opportunity for a CEO or MD to stamp their mark on the organization for posterity. And this is when you get iconic architectural structures, outstanding and bold designs and buildings that could double up as works of art as the CEOs go all out to ensure the building stands-out and is unforgettable.
