Happy New Year 2025
As the year 2024 comes to a close, there are many things I am grateful for - the growth, the levelling up and the transformation within. I have learnt it’s not your job to convince others your worth, your value and your potential that God has placed in you. It is your job to know it, to embody it and to radiate it so brightly that the world can’t help but notice it.
I stopped focusing on disappointments and heartbreaks that were. I started pouring energy into my own goals, my own happiness, and my physical health. I started chasing my dreams.
In 2025, I will focus on the person I am becoming, leaving behind those who walked away because they weren’t ready for the greatness I hold and the weight of my potential. I am walking into greatness, and will only allow people who align with the incredible future that God is building, only those who will honor and uplift me, as I power forward and up, knowing that the best is yet to come. Life is tiring enough, so let go of people who drain you.
In 2025 it is about aligning with the purpose God created me for, and all else will fall into place. I have poured into my own growth, my writings, the nights amidst years spent learning & developing the wellness courses that now has demand in other countries. I will not settle for crumbs, as I know I deserve that feast God has prepared. I will not be a person’s option, but her priority. Every step I took in 2024 is getting me closer to the career success, and life partner I deserve in 2025.
Growth is sometimes uncomfortable and there are days I looked back and questioned myself and even God. But I know He is making my life a masterpiece and everything is unfolding as it should. Every time I chose myself, my health and taking the challenge in Shanghai; and walking away from what does not serve me anymore, I am building a foundation for a future so solid that no devil can shake. I am building a life that is precious and a character worthy of the best. The moment I believe this, the world will too.
In 2024 I have leveled up. No one can dim my light anymore. In 2025 I will rise and rise, thrive and the people who deserves me will meet me at my level with no compromise. The world needs the best version of me, not a watered down version.
I know my journey isn’t meant for the faint hearted. My journey requires me to think out of the box, to leave my comfort zone and to overcome many fears that had limited me and others. In 2024 I had let go the old version of myself; one with many insecurities and doubts. Yes there was pain and disappointments in 2024. But I know what is more painful! Being stuck! Stuck in a mindset that say I can’t, I'm not ready, I am inadequate; stuck in a job that has no growth nor fulfilment and doing nothing about it; stuck in habits that don’t serve you; stuck in a relationship that don’t honor you. I feel sorry for these people who stayed stuck and never progressing to what God meant them to be.
Pain after all isn’t the enemy but the greatest teacher I ever had. Every setback, every tear I shed in 2024 watered the seeds of a future so beautiful that it will leave others speechless. People who didn’t see your worth didn’t reject you, they rejected the reflection of themselves they saw in you, as you are the mirror showing the gaps in their own soul. They fear alternatives that contradict their current belief, prepared for everything except for the fact that beyond the darkness of their blindness there is a great light, a more rewarding path forward.
In 2025, new opportunities will avail, new people who matters will come into my life, there will be new success and new joy. I am destined for greatness no matter who stays or leaves. I am not just building my own future but lighting the way for others to rise as well. As you walk into 2025, may you inspire others. People watching me transform will think that if he can do it, so can I.
I have been through storms that would have broken most souls, but I am still here, still standing and stronger than ever. I am now a force that is unbreakable. I have been forced into the fire and now I am unshakable, unbowed, unbent.
In 2024 I found my own self. Start to own your greatness and the world will yield to you. The doors that I thought were locked are swinging open. Be inspired! In 2025 opportunities you never imagine will land on your lap. Those who left in 2024 didn’t leave me behind, they left themselves behind when they couldn’t match my energy and my passion.
In 2025 I know I have everything inside me to build my own happiness, success and legacy. I only need the Lord to validate me, not even well meaning men. Yes going to church is good as then there is accountability in your life; but the repeated same messages on “grace” and “what you have in Christ “can be stale after a while. What I need is a prophetic voice to guide me daily in my life and my businesses. The voice of God and not the wisdom of men.
No matter what happened in the past or in 2024, it doesn’t define you. The failures, the disappointments and the heartbreaks are ephemeral. It is just a mosquito bite. What defines you is the courage to rebuild, to shine brighter than ever before. Every ounce of energy I poured into my growth, I am rewriting my own stars, my own destiny. It has all been worth it. Amen.
Your time has come, so make it count. Keep growing!. Keep chasing your dreams! Be the architect of your own success in 2025 and beyond. HAPPY NEW YEAR 2025!

Fear not
I have now been working in Shanghai for over a week. As I reflect on what I see, I can’t but notice that God had walked ahead to prepare for my stay here. The little details, the acute timing, the persons I were supposed to meet, all were carefully knitted by a Divine benevolent force to make this move happen. It can only be His hands that made it possible for me to be back in China, not as a worker but as an investor and medical professional. It was as sudden as accidentally walking into a manhole.
We all know how hard it is to get into the China market. Lots of money is needed and it takes time to set up a business here. I have been down that road before. But this time it was all set up and I just walked in. Never in my wildest dreams I saw that I could have a clinic set up for me in a hospital located at the Bund, yes right at the Bund. The products that I dare not dream of are now at my disposal. Products that I wrote about, taught about in my courses, but never dreamt will be in the clinics that God just plucked me out of the air and placed me there. Items like Gene therapy, totipotent stem cells, Peptides for weight loss, exosomes, detox. Whitening, NAD+, plasmapheresis, hyperbaric medicine,.eecp.etc.. All just in an instant. Literally!
Internally, unknown to me, but God was preparing me the past few years to take on this new challenge. I was asked to write courses for a university course on Stem cells, wellness, etc which prepared me for the task in Shanghai. It prepared me knowledge wise, image wise and I am working out how to conduct these courses in China.
The road ahead won’t be a bed of roses. There are always fear and uncertainty. But God is moved by our faith, not our abilities or fears. People do not reach their full potential that God has for them not because of lack of ability, but for fear of stepping out of their comfort zone.. They box themselves in. They make decisions out of fear.
As I navigate myself in this new role, in a new environment I realised there is still so much more for me to learn. What I know is so miniscule that it is humbling. Doubts do creep in. I fear that my Chinese language skills are inadequate. Am I really equipped for this? In the end, I believe via God’s leading I am a fertile and ready ground to birth new skills and repertoire into my career. I have to see myself as a glass half-filled, not half empty. God had opened this door for me to be more complete and all-rounded in my field of work. Everyday I wake up, I muster the courage for another day not to look stupid as there is so much I don’t know and am still learning. I have always been a pure medical marketeer, not a clinician.
It’s the same coin. Just whether I choose to see which side. One side paralyses me with fear. Fear that my skills are inadequate. The other side fuels my ambition to enlarge my tent as how Isaiah puts it (Isaiah54:2) and to elevate and upgrade myself gradually in social standing, financially and business wise. The only way is forward and not look back. I cannot let myself down. I cannot let God down.

God always has another plan
Life is full of twists and turns that makes it unpredictable and sometimes very painful. I had a business in Malaysia and Guangzhou taken away from me. God is gradually restoring me, and with products of much higher technologies than previous. I now have a clinic in KL and one in Shanghai which I am thankful to God for.
I had a relationship but it just vanished into thin air. Peoples’ hearts can change, only the Lord is steadfast and doesn’t change.
The truth is prioritize your life on Jesus and not material things or a person. People will disappoint you. God wont. Therefore set your minds on heavenly things rather than earthly things.
Esther in the Bible
We all know about the story of Queen Esther, a young Jewish woman living in the Persian diaspora who finds favour with the king, who becomes queen, and risks her life to save the Jewish people from destruction. Esther was not a choice to become queen. If Vasthi was obedient there would be no space for Esther to become queen.
In the biblical Book of Esther, Vashti appears only briefly. The first wife of King Ahasuerus, she refuses her husband’s summons to parade before his friends at a party and — after the king and his advisors hold an emergency consultation about her shocking insubordination — is banished from the king. This paves the way for the story of Esther becoming Queen.
The essence is that God always has a Plan B, and often Plan B may be better.
King David
Saul was chosen by God to be the first king of Israel. However, God rejected Saul because Saul rejected God. More specifically, Saul rejected God's word delivered by Samuel.
The Israelites wanted a king to lead them. Saul disappointed them but God had a Plan B. Because of the disappointment, God gave them a better man, David, a man after God’s heart. Even before God rejected Saul, He had been preparing David to take over from Saul.
As Samuel turned to leave, Saul caught hold of the hem of his robe, and it tore. Samuel said to him, “The Lord has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today and has given it to one of your neighbours—to one better than you. 29 He who is the Glory of Israel does not lie or change his mind; for he is not a human being, that he should change his mind.” (1 Samuel 15:27-28) NIV.
New King James Version reads, “and the LORD has done for Himself as He spoke by me. For the LORD has torn the kingdom out of your hand and given it to your neighbour, David.” God literally took the throne away from Saul and gave it to David. God said to “the one better than Saul”.
God’s Plan B
God’s hand is upon me as I know, worship and enjoy Him.
Thank you Lord for restoring my career. When men says it is over, that is when God takes over. Likewise, God will prepare a kingdom spouse better than the initial for me. Someone to do God's end-time work together; and be elevated financially, business-wise, socially and prosper together. I can’t do it alone. God says two are better than one.
Two are better than one,
because they have a good return for their labor:
10 If either of them falls down,
one can help the other up.
But pity anyone who falls
and has no one to help them up.
11 Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm.
But how can one keep warm alone?
12 Though one may be overpowered,
two can defend themselves.
A cord of three strands is not quickly broken (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12)
God always has a Plan B, and Plan B is often better to "make up" for the hurts and disappointments. That's why God ensures Plan B is always better. That is how much He loves me!
Praise God! Amen.
