PRIME MINISTER Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi yesterday received the Global Leadership Medal from US-based Napoleon Hill Foundation for his dedication to the country.
In his speech, Abdullah dedicated the award to all Malaysians who had thrown their support behind the government.
“I thank you (Malaysians) for the support and cooperation,” he said at the launch of the two-day Napoleon Hill International Convention in Putrajaya yesterday. The award presentation was held on the sidelines of the convention, which is being held outside the US for the first time. Abdullah said he was uncertain whether he deserved to receive the award, to which convention participants spontaneously replied “yes”.
“It is an honour indeed to be the first recipient of the Global Leadership Award. I accept it with humility,” he said. Napoleon Hill president James L. Oleson said the Global Leadership Medal was awarded in recognition of outstanding leaders around the world who protect and project the foundation’s 17 principles of success. “We look for individuals whom we believe have shown outstanding leadership character and motivation and has acted to improve the welfare of both the nation and global economy,” he said
1. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO DESCRIBE HOW I FEEL – THIS MUST BE THE BIGGEST MEDAL I HAVE EVER RECEIVED! I FEEL OVERWHELMED; DO I DESERVE THIS?
I believe in “the power of Dreams”. I belives in the power of virtualisation. In achieving my first dream car, that is a mercedes car, I start doing my virtualization work. Every nigth, or whenever I have free time, I do my virtualization or santabi. I want a mercedes car. After doing my serious santabi, 4 months later, I drove my firs dream car, that is 300 SE Mercedes. It is a second hand car. Anyway, I’m very happy, as my virtualization works. 
On Setp 2005, until now, I’m driving a better mercedes car, that is S420 Mercedes. I’m happy, because I did practice really work. Now, I start virtualise for a better and new car, that is a 2 door, mercedes sport car. 
what is your dream? What are the goals that you have set for yourself and are working to achieve? It is important that we each have purpose in our lives. Goals, with a well thought out action plan, allow us to implement the steps needed to reach our dreams, our fantasies, wishes and hopes. You may want an entirely new job, or a significant career change. Maybe you are seeking a promotion, or believe you have earned a raise! The path is often cluttered with obstacles that have to be overcome. Achieving your dreams is never an easy ride.
So, now, take a minute and write down three goals you want to accomplish this year. Next, list the steps that you must take so that you can accomplish those three goals. Finally, decide on a nice reward for yourself, when you have achieved your goals. It will be helpful to find a picture that illustrates the reward and post it where you will see it every day. This will inspire you to achieve it! Don’t hold back. Pursue those BIG dreams. They often take about the same amount of effort that medium-sized or smaller ones do, but the rewards are much more significant. Break through, believe in yourself, and create a sense of urgency for yourself that says, “I will do it NOW!”. 
Do you know this man?. A man with full of dreams!!!. Most Malaysian knows him. An old man who changed his dreams into reality!!. He start his Genting business at the age of 50. Today, he is one of the richest man in Malaysia. A successful entrepeneur.. and the most important is, he is the founder and owner of Genting Highland, the most. popular resort in Malaysia today. He changed a hounted mountain at Genting Sempah, into a world tourist destination resort. As a motivational topic, I’m happy to present this famous Malaysian success story to be shared with you all, especially to my own childrends and family members. My family and I used to visit Genting Highland, and I hope they know the success story of its founder.
Lim Goh Tong, ia a Malaysian most interesting entrepreneur. He is the man beginning with nothing. He is a simple man with vision. He turned difficulties into opportunities, acting on brarewaves, taking calculated risks and confounding skeptics through sheer foresight and perseverance. A man who is ready to work hard and the right opportunity time can succeed.†He believe in the power of conviction. When he made a decision and believe strongly that it is the right one, he will go head on with it, no matter what odds he is am up against. 
In business, he believe in going step by step, slowly but surely. He prefer to seek out opportunities with good potential and build on them. Besides getting the satisfaction of nurturing a venture from infancy to maturity, he avoid on stepping on others’ toes and making enemies…Once a decision is made with sound reasoning, the rest is hard work, determination and perseverance to see it through to fruition.
Your results always follow your actions (and beliefs). If you don’t get into a car and drive to London, you will stay where you are. If you don’t get off the couch, you will stay on the couch. Simple: the result is the child of the action. Your actions follow your beliefs. You cannot act outside of what you believe. Have you noticed that?. 
Your beliefs are simply thoughts that you think over and over again (mindset). And your thoughts can be organized into a system that works (a strategy). And a strategy can be learnt; all you need is to be exposed to it to come from not knowing to knowing. Most importantly, your thoughts arise from your state of being (consciousness). When you are happy, you have happy thoughts and you feel happy. When you are sad, you have sad thoughts and you feel sad. State comes first, followed by thought and then the corresponding emotion. You may not know it, but you always choose your state; it just doesn’t happen randomly (maybe unconsciously, but not randomly, and you will learn how to make the unconscious conscious). 
A state of being that believes in abundance, infinity, possibility, openness, flow, and so on, is a state of wealth consciousness. If you have a lack consciousness state of being as your predominant one, you cannot make wealth. It defies natural law and hence it is impossible. In fact, if you don’t have wealth consciousness, you will not even believe or perceive opportunities to make money even if they are staring at you right in your face (you wouldn’t know money if it hit you in the face). 
You must first create within you a state of wealth consciousness. This must be your primary mission. Your subconscious mind (the storehouse of your beliefs) controls almost everything about you. For example, it controls your autonomic nervous system. What is that? Here is what the Microsoft Encarta encyclopedia says: “Autonomic Nervous System, in vertebrate anatomy, one of the two main divisions of the nervous system, supplying impulses to the body’s heart muscles, smooth muscles, and glands. The autonomic system controls the action of the glands; the functions of the respiratory, circulatory, digestive, and urogenital systems; and the involuntary muscles in these systems and in the skin. 
Controlled by nerve centers in the lower part of the brain, the system also has a reciprocal effect on the internal secretions, being controlled to some degree by the hormones and exercising some control, in turn, on hormone production.” Which all means that your hormones, energy levels, actions and so forth are controlled by the subconscious mind. If you have told yourself that you are clumsy, the subconscious will work with your hormones, motor skills, and so on and make you act, move and talk stupid.
