Zhuge Liang & NLP: hahahaha!

as a kid, i've always been wondering why Zhuge liang loved carrying a fan around. in recent years i believed there should be some simple fundamental reason which would be as consistent as the deep frequency which with he carried the feather fan. as a stretegist, as a thinker, i believed that he had to be composed and calm throughout the day to be formulating on his toes the best strategy for the situation demanded.

in other words, he had to be in a CONSTANT PEAK STATE to be carrying out his goals successfully. he had to be in CONTROL of his EMOTIONS. his fan was a simple physical way of doing that!

learning from the great strategist, and becoming one myself, i believe that to help the world consistently, i have to be in control of my emotions and keep the IDEAL state at its peak in the right situation. studying? relaxed, composed and ready to absorb all that's in front. reading? high tempo music for speeeeeeddy reading! trading? all warmed up with the current status of the market and focused and ready to know what to do next, and take action! strategizing? calm and composed also, like a cooling fan would give you!

tales of him waving his fan to summon the elements to destroy his enemies is probably how he put his effective strategies into action while being in a constant peak state helped by his fan, which many thought had mysterious uses. our emotions truly affect us greatly.

don't wait to do something to feel good; feel good first.

thank you zhuge liang for your fan, its a great gift!

"According to a folk tale, young Zhuge Liang is just as emotional as us youths. So his wife made him the feather fan so that he can hide his emotions by shielding his face as well as soothe his emotions and anger etc when things get awry. Overtime, Zhuge Liang became an expert in hiding his thoughts and feelings (keeping a straight face) but he always carried the fan around because his wife made it for him..."
