Blog post reveals how increased self-esteem and confidence are the greatest gifts you can bestow on your loved ones

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/09/2014 -- Once again, Christmas is around the corner, but the usual gifts of toys, clothing and make-up might not be the best gifts that you can give to your loved ones, if a recent blog post on http://www.leelincher.net/ is to be believed.

According to the blog post entitled "What To Give Your Loved Ones For Christmas 2014", the best gifts that you can bestow on your loved ones – not just for this Christmas but for many Christmases beyond – are the gifts of confidence and self-esteem.

When asked about the content of his post, author and ex-teacher, Lin-Cher Lee, 42, had this to say:

"When people think about Christmas, they think of fanciful gifts in the likes of toys, electronic gadgets and jewellery. What many people forget is that Christmas is the story of love, and the ultimate act of love you can do for your loved ones is to imbibe in them the sense of self-belief and self-worth."

According to Lee, confidence and self-esteem are the twin qualities that separate the achievers from the masses, and these are also the character traits that differentiate between the good and the great.

If confidence and self-esteem are paramount, how should one go about helping his or her loved ones gain that all-important self-belief and self-worth?

There are many ways to accomplish this, and some of the more common methods include the use of affirmations, going for motivational seminars and practising visualisation.

And while all these methods work to a certain degree, the most effective alternative – from Lee's viewpoint – is to build and accumulate vast reserves of Qi (Ch'i) in the belly or hara.

"Most methods rely on the use of the conscious mind to subdue the natural, self-sabotaging tendencies of the subconscious mind. And much like trying to battle the urge to over-indulge in chocolates or sweet drinks, the conscious mind – almost – always fails since it is fighting an 'invisible' enemy."

Working on one's Qi (Ch'i), however, will allow one to resolve the issues of a lack of self-confidence and low self-esteem from deep within, putting one on a forward path of self-discovery and realisation.

Peninsula Plaza, Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/04/2014 -- Revisions to a newly-launched Xing Yi (Hsing I) Kung Fu book is set to make the book a complete guide to those who desire success and personal achievement.

Entitled 'Xing Yi (Hsing I) Kung Fu for Success', the book encapsulates all that the author understands about the art, and its effectiveness as a catalyst in one's pursuit for success.

Written by a Chinese Singaporean who has practised the art for over 2 years, Xing Yi (Hsing I) Kung Fu for Success is an introduction to the internal martial art, as well as a distillation of the best lessons that one can derive from the system.

When asked about his reasons for writing the book, Lin-Cher Lee, 42 and author of the book, had this to say:

"When people think about Chinese kung fu, they think of legendary martial artists in the likes of Bruce Lee and Jet Li. What many people don't understand is that martial arts is a system of success that anyone can take and apply into any area of their lives."

But unlike any other practice, Xingyiquan (Hsing I Ch'uan) is a system that comes with its own lineage, beliefs and drills that go way back into history, the practice of which will imbibe in the student a strong core that is calibrated for success.

The book was first launched in September 2014 on Lulu.com, but within less than a month of the launch, the book was revised to incorporate elements that were previously missing in the book.

"As an internal martial art, Xingyiquan (Hsing I Ch'uan) is very Yang (positive, masculine) in nature. Its emphasis on action and moving in straight for the 'kill' is a metaphor for how you and I can overcome obstacles and achieve success in our lives."

According to Lee, the original book – which was very Yang by nature and consistent with the essence of Xingyiquan (Hsing I Ch'uan) – had to be revised to allow for some Yin elements to make it a more complete book.

"There are tangible elements that we can work on, and there are intangible elements that we have to account for. As a Xingyiquan (Hsing I Ch'uan) book with a focuson success and self-improvement, this book has to have a right balance between Yin and Yang in order for the reader to achieve maximum mileage from the book."
