About World University


  1. This blog is dedicated towards learning and knowledge sharing. The concept is simple and easy. The whole world is like a university. It has many faculties offering a plethora courses. It is up to the student to choose what and when he wants to learn. As life unfolds by the seconds, events will happen and there will always be lessons to learn from if we so choose to. 
  2. Just like learning at the Unversity, life constantly give examinations. If we fail, we can retake. If we pass the exam, we can move on. If we do not take the exam, we stay stagnant until we take the exam again. Of course there are those who score well as well as those who are just mediocre students. People who score well excel and the mediocre ones lead an average life. 
  3. Unlike the university, we never really graduate. Life learning is a never ending process. We learn from birth to death. That is the uniqueness of the human brain that controls the human body. It is capable of learning new things and the capacity for learning is literally limitless.
  4. This blog will be the culmination of my daily experiences, readings, studies etc. As such it will be limited to my knowledge, skills, attitudes and expreiences admittedly.
  5. Unlike universities, there are no diplomas to confer. But you will always get results from all actions and decisions. You decide how good you were. Self evaluation is the main key here. Of course feedback from others is also important. But at the end of the day it is what you say to yourself that move you forward or otherwise.
  6. We are always learning. Successful people learn useful things. Failures learn useless stuff. That is the main difference that yields the different results.

Retooling Your Brain with Visual Thinking (Tools for Creative Thinking)

Image
"The clarification of visual forms and their organization in integrated patterns as well as the attribution of such forms to suitable objects is one of the most effective training grounds of the young mind."  —Rudolph Arnheim I used to think that creativity is a natural talent God given to the lucky few. Thus only creative people will produce creative results. However, throughout my career as a training consultant, I discovered that if we give people the tools of creativity, they will produce similar outcomes. Quite often this can astound them and change their beliefs about their creative thinking abilities. This shows that creative thinking is a skill that can be learned.  In this blog, I will share a very powerful method of thinking outside the box i.e. visual thinking. This method is powerful because it is able to bring out ideas in ways that the conventional method is not able to express. Numerous research has been conducted to prove the benefits of visual thi...

Is your Thinking Pattern Built for Success ?

Do you know that most of the time the only difference between successful people and failures is in how they think ? In my line of work as a training consultant, I find this to be true all the time. One of the most obvious difference in thinking between successful people and failures is successful people do not make or take excuses in their thinking. They focus their thinking in doing and finding ways to implement worthwhile ideas. They focus more on how to make things work rather than finding blames on why things fail. Failures on the other hand will focus on their inabilities and focus their attention on the different excuses they can find to justify why an idea cannot be implemented. Result is the dependent on attention. What we focus on gets expanded. As such when we focus on excuses and failures in our lives, that will be the outcome of our lives. In contrast, the mindset of successful people is always saying to themselves that the solution to a problem is not there yet beca...
