I am delighted by the recent wave of media that beautifully illustrate what Einstein and the quantum physicists of late have uncovered. The Secret, What the Bleep Do We Know?! and The Elegant Universe, in particular are three movies that help us understand the real-life implications of quantum physics.

"What the Bleep Do We Know?!" & My Transformation Journey: Part 1Alex Chua said Jun 19, 2006, 9:42 AM: |

What really got me started was my friend & Mentor, Douglas. It all started way way back… but I'll have to restrain myself… lets just start with Beyond Change… a workshop Douglas facilitated on the Good Friday weekend… 25, 26 & 27 March 2005. That workshop reignited my sparks of passion for life… which was at that time was slowly fading away after 3 years as an employee in a public listed firm… I'd say I achieved some success materially & would consider myself as having done well… at least I was good enough for the company to offer me a significant increment in terms of commission & also a 2 months period of no pay leave for me to go do what I wanted to do… but I had lost my enthusiasm & passion for life… Back to Beyond Change… it gave me a clearer picture of what my life have been & triggered a series of Synchronicity and Serendipity which included coming across “What the Bleep Do We Know?!” online. The movie wasn't showing in Singapore & there were no indications that it would be… I read the Study Guide & soon found myself deep in the rabbit hole. There was this unknow tension from within me… I cannot explain it… but I just felt I had to leave my job & extend myself in some new direction… to allow my fires of passion to burn brightly & to live my life fully… to reconnect with my authentic self & to make a bigger difference in the world… actually these are all hindsight… all I had in my mind at that time were confusion & chaos… out of which came clarity… only much later… I went on holiday in Taiwan… the week after that trip was just unbearable… My heart was telling me it's now or never. I was full of fear, doubt, worry & even guilt. Many questions plagued my mind… such as “What is next?”, “What if I cannot find a better job?” blah blah blah… To simplyfy… somewhere from this mess came a thought that excited me… I did not want another job! At least not immediately after that one… I wanted to experience something I might never have another chance to do if I missed this time & space… I wanted to write… to go somewhere away from Singapore to write… I chose Melbourne… that was where I first saw “What the Bleep Do We Know?!”… that movie which gave me a glimpse of what my live could be… I tendered my resignation on 09 May 2005 & set off on this little pilgrimage of mine… actually all I dared to call it at that time was hybernation… ha ha… I shaved myself bald & went off to Melbourne in winter… I have always been afraid of the cold so I must have been crazy ;-) This post is getting too long so I'll pause here for a breather… lets see… my next post will be on how Douglas helped me see clearly enough to choose to take this journey… basically… I was a caterpillar at that time & I cannot imagine myself leaving the comfort & security of my job… yet Douglas was able to shine a light into my heart… he gave no advice… simply helped me to reconnect with my own Inner Genius… to be continued… P.S. I think I wrote too much already… why don't we make this interactive… before my next post… please share your thoughts on what I have written so far… especially… please share your thoughts on the following: 1. What are you most Passionate about in your life? What really matters to you? Are you doing what you love? How can you do what you love? 2. What are you most Passionate about in your work? What aspect of your work do you find to be Energising, EnJOYable & FUN? What do you love about what you do? How can you love what you do? 3. How can you bring your Profession & Passion into alignment? Namaste, |
