    IT’S NOT LUCK, BY Eliyahu M. Goldratt, the Bestseller Author: “THE GOAL”

    ____THEORY OF CONSTRAINTS____

    JUNE 24th, 2021

    * LOGIC ANALYSIS/THINKING PROCESS*

    * OBJECTIVE: TO FIND THE 1 OR 2 CORE PROBLEMS, NOT THE SYMPTOM, BECAUSE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM, WE NEED TO CURE THE CORE PROBLEM, NOT THE SYMPTOM.

    * PROCESS:

    1) SUMMARIZE ALL THE UNDESIRABLE EFFECTS/PROBLEMS INTO 5 TO 10 ITEMS–> CURRENT REALITY TREE;

    2) TRY TO IDENTIFY THE CAUSE AND EFFECT RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN AT LEAST TWO OF THE UNDESIRABLE EFFECTS/PROBLEMS.

    3) TRY CONNECT ALL THE UNDESIRABLE EFFECTS/PROBLEMS BY USING THE EXPRESSION: IF…….. AND …….., THEN…….

    * EXAMPLE IN THIS BOOK:
    A SON ASKED HIS FATHER TO USE HIS CAR WHILE HE IS AWAY ON BUSINESS TRIP FOR 1 WEEK BY PROMISING TO PAY THE GASOLINE BY HIMSELF, HOWEVER, HIS FATHER IS RELUCTANT TO LEND HIM THE CAR. THE REASON IS BASED ON HIS LOGIC ANALYSIS AS FOLLOWS:
    . When someone can use something regularly, it will become a habit, THEN, you get used to have your car at your own exposure.

    >>>If….and….then….(expression)
    ..IF you get used to have use your car at your own exposure, AND I don’t want to share the car with you, THEN, you feel bad.

    * CONCLUSION:
    What you need is the intuition to the subject and the willpower to do the meticulous work. It takes about 5 hours or so to use Theory of Constraints to IDENTIFY the CORE PROBLEMS, NOT the symptoms, to solve the problems.

    * IT IS ONE OF THE MARKETING BOOK THAT SHOULD BE READ AS A BUSINESSMAN/WOMAN.

    ** However, the process of logic thinking or analysis can be used for almost every situation with constraints or dilemma in order to find the two or three core problems, hence reach the WIN-WIN solution.

  • Millionaire Fastlane

    Millionaire Fastlane

    Idea to Fastlane: 1) Control your own business, 2) Leverage it (Time is sold for money, this is not Leverage); 3) Hard work doesn’t feel like work, in fact I enjoy it. Felt Rich and happy. 4) Automation and Process—> Money Tree grows money (the money rolls in) –> Fruit bearing money tree that requires only a few hours to flower it.

    The book starts with questioning what is the True Wealth?
    According to the Author, the True Wealth is not defined by material possession: Money or Stuffs. 3Fs are the fundamental of True Wealth: Family: Relationship, Fitness: Health and Freedom: Happiness.

    Normal is the modern day of slavery. Society’s Corrupted Definition of Wealth–> Normal is corrupted.

    Misuse Money and Money will Misuse You.

    He goes to question: Money can’t buy happiness? Is it true? Used properly, In reality, Money buy freedom which is one fundamental of happiness.

    How about taking a few time to review your business: whether it is a right Fastlane Roadmap / Path to Wealth or not?

    According to the book titled: “Millionaire Fastlane”, the millionaire right business roadmap toward the WEALTH must follow the “LAW OF AFFECTION” that follow the 5 Commandments:

    1. COMMANDMENT OF CONTROL, “C” Commandment
    2. COMMANDMENT OF ENTRY, “E” Commandment
    3. COMMANDMENT OF NEED, “N” Commandment
    4. COMMANDMENT OF TIME, “T” Commandment
    5. COMMANDMENT OF SCALE, “S” Commandment

    In Summary, it is called, “CENTS” Framework — don’t start a business to pay your bills, start one to set yourself free– both with time and money.

    By M.J. DeMarco, the author, there are 3 different maps and paths used by people to achieve financial success. (1) The Sidewalk, (2) The Slow Lane, (3) The Fastlane (Choose Unlimited Controllable Gain (UCG); Have Your Own Business; Transform Your Lifestyle; Choose the Rapid Wealth Creation)

    Other wisdoms of the book:
    * Wealth is not the Road, it is a journey. That is to say, what is matter is not the final destination, but the whole process of reaching and enjoying it…
    * Deem WEALTH as a construction work, as selling many products_ instead of thinking of yourself as a consumer, build the mindset that you are a producer, and always keep it in the foreground.
    * Even if you have found a way, but if you never think it right way, it never turn into the Fastlane.
    * You can come up with an idea of a good solution that has market potential and can make you rich, however, this will happen only if you move other pieces of the game:
    ** Project Execution;
    ** The Marketing;
    ** The service or consumer service;
    ** Your Product;
    ** The ideas.
    * Execution is the King; and the ideas are the pawns.
    * Burn the business plan; ignite the execution.
    * Paulo Vieira, “Enrichment Factor”: the enrichment journey is made up of peaks and valleys, so be prepared and willing not to stop midway_ never give up make you millionaire.
    * Lynda Gratton, “The 100 Year Life”: people must move from 3 stages: education, work, and retirement – to a multiple-stage life, that requires flexibility, and change in the way time is used.
    * Jill Schlesinger, “The Dump Smart People Do With Their Money”: people should not invest their money in what they don’t know.
    * Stop thinking like an employee and at the end of his life will bear the fruits of his efforts.
    * Work with purpose and passion to stay motivated regardless of difficulties.
    * Wealth does not depend on formulas, but requires beliefs, lifestyle, and the processes that you define.
    * Create product Solutions that ensure process automation and income that is not dependent on your workforce.
    * Stop planning and execute! Use execution learning to improve planning, creating an efficient and productive cycle.

  • Convert Number to Words Automatically…

    May 4th, 2021

    We can convert Number to Word easily with the following website:

    https://www.calculatorsoup.com/calculators/conversions/numberstowords.php


    I tried to search for the function to print the amount in number to WORDS automatically in Quickbooks, but it seems that we can not print automatically. We can only add the Message box and write the amount in words by ourselves.


    Therefore, the above website may be helpful to avoid error in writing.


    Hope it is helpful 🙂

    à 1) Type the formula =SpellNumber(A1) into the cell where you want to display a written number, where A1 is the cell containing the number you want to convert. You can also manually type the value like =SpellNumber(22.50).

    2) Press Enter to confirm the formula. That’s it! You will see the amount written in words automatically.

    3) Save as Excel Macro-Enabled Workbook (.xlsm) to keep your file in its current format. To do that, follow the instructions below:

    a) Click File > Save As.
