About Secrets to Success w Kitty & Lisa #SSKL

Join KITTY YEUNG DOWNER, an International Speaker, Mentor and Author based in Bangkok, Thailand and LISA MURPHY, a Health and Wellness Coach based in Kansas City in the US, as they share and explore a new meaning of success. Learn their secrets, from how to mindfully nourish our bodies to live healthily, to being clear with our minds and hearts to authentically live and speak our truth.

#SSKL is a bi-weekly show, created during Covid-19 as life brought Kitty and Lisa together after what seems like a lifetime after they first met in Dubai in 2005 and subsequently in New York in 2009.

What does success mean to you? And what does it look like?

“Success" is often defined by companies whose interest isn't necessarily in our success. Rather, they want us to buy what they offer so that we can feel and appear to be successful.

Can success really be bought?

Success can have a whole new meaning if we are willing to own it and take a look at what truly makes us successful, happy and fulfiled as WHO we are, not what's defined for us.

What do we want that money can't buy? What do we have that we may not be aware of which can be our new meaning of success? Can they be our measurement of what success is? Great points and thoughts are shared in episode 3.

Do let us know your thoughts and your new meaning of success in the comments below as we are here to support each other in our journey and indeed share our secrets to success.

Many of us are in the lock-down. This period is GIFTing and GIVing us the time and space to do some serious collective reflection on our thoughts and beliefs, as well as how we live our lives.

I am sharing some very common, minor and trivial comments and thoughts that I often see and hear. Given where we are globally and collectively, I want to highlight and share them with you. As trivial and small as they may be perceived, they are, in fact, a reflection of what and how we think fundamentally.

The term "human nature" is often misused if not abused by us. We are human. If we pay attention and be mindful, we can change our nature. We are human with and in nature. We are IT.

We may not have control of everything in life but we do have enough control to make a difference in our lives and in the world we live in.

What a global event we are going through. Is it going to bring us closer or divide us further?

When I look behind what I see, the situation is not asking us to panic as dangerous as the virus is. Rather, it's asking us to take stock of our lives.

Go Back To Basic

We have become smart and informed consumers but are we aware that we are being consumed by consumerism?

Look Deep Within

Use it to do the things we say we want to do but never have the time for or take a step back at looking deep within ourselves - to align and re-align our lives to the one we are connected to, not just the one we are living as it is.

I often start my workshops and seminars by asking the audience a few questions.

- When was the last time you examined and challenged your thoughts and beliefs?.....usually a quiet response.

Life is full of the unexpected. The way to ensure we are in the best position to embrace it is to be absolutely clear with what's in our mind and heart, and to have them work together, not against each other.

Time to look within.

Reset, refresh and resurface to become better, clearer and stronger in lives.

Practise Kindness And Look Out For Each Other

The world is full of people and yet we make each other strangers. Where we are globally, it requires individual and collective action. Be the support for each other.

The virus doesn't carry or spread fear or panic. Human does.

Crisis in Chinese is 危機.

Whether we can turn this challenging time into a positive one depends on the perspective we take and the actions that follow. Is it a danger? Or is it an opportunity?

We may not have full control of the virus yet but we do have the full control over the choices we make.

Together, we will ride out from this challenging time.

Be kind.

Whilst it is okay to say “I don’t know” when we don’t know about something when it comes to self-development and personal growth, we simply can’t stop at “I don’t know”.

“I don’t know” is, in fact, the sign that tells us it is time to find out how to be “I do know”. After all, the only person who has the power to stop us from developing ourselves is no one else but ourselves.

The ART to transform “I don’t know” into “I do know”:

Reasons – do we know why we say it? Is it really because we don’t know or does it have more meaning behind those words?

Truth – are the reasons our truth or simply excuses or laziness?

No major breakthrough or transformation in life can happen without us digging deep within and asking ourselves the challenging questions.

Don’t stop there when ”I don’t know”.

Only when we create the space to self-inquire and explore can we transform “I don’t know” into “I do know”.

Ever noticed the NO in the K-NO-W?  

Changing our mindset from a focus on limitation to a focus on opportunity and possibility is a crucial step if we are to truly live and embrace life.  

When we are uncertain, we tend to say NO until we KNOW enough. However, unknown and uncertainty is always a part of the equation in making life changes.  Sometimes, we only get to truly KNOW how capable, able and courageous we are and can be by not saying NO to new things or changes in life even when we don't know much about them. 

I shared how I have been using the code from NO to KNOW to guide me through life changes after life changes in this clip.  

What are your tools in embracing life changes?

When someone has made a bold step in life, we say “they are so brave”.

Deep down, many of us also want that bold step in life. But somehow we believe we CAN’T because of thousands of reasons. These reasons are often not legitimate. They are nothing but self-limiting beliefs.

The truth is we CAN. We can all CAN.

– We CAN try.

The challenge isn’t if we CAN. The real challenge is if we WILL:

– WILL we overcome our own inner fear?

If we WILL NOT, we will never CAN.

Setbacks and life challenges will always be there. Where do you set your baselines? And what stories are you feeding yourself?

The January Blues Campaign organized by Chalk + Ward, highlighting the importance of mental wellness gives us a great start to address our wellbeings for this new year, this new decade and the new cycle of the Chinese zodiac.  

When addressing our wellness, we need to do so wholesomely and holistically given our mental wellbeing is so intricately and tightly connected with our physical, emotional and spiritual wellness. Whilst we can focus on one at a time, we can never look at them isolatedly.  

MENTAL - we may be positive but do we have the drive, motivations and inspirations to propel us forward? 

PHYSICAL - we may have the perfect 6-pack but do we feel as good about ourselves as the 6-pack looks? 

EMOTIONAL - life may look good but are we truly happy? 

SPIRITUAL - we may be busy but do we feel fulfilled with a sense of self or purpose?  

Wellness can only stay well when it is cultivated and nurtured constantly with mindfulness and awareness.  How well would you like to be for this new year, this new decade and this new cycle of the Chinese zodiac?
