The Iron behind the Mask
Many a time, I come across people and I form an impression of them. First impressions really do last and usually are the real ones that tell a person. Does she look at you in the eyes when she talks? Does she ask you any questions or only know how to talk about herself? Does she offer help? Does she ignore? Does she pay attention? Does she ask you personal questions? Does she respect your privacy? Does she make you laugh? Does she lift you? Does she bring you down? Can you sense jealousy? Do you need to be on guard when you’re with her? Does she have an agenda?
Some people, they are so genuine and radiate such sincerity that you can feel it in your bone. And then some, they are so sickeningly sweet and nice to you yet something tells you to be careful. How is that? Why is that? Trust your instincts. They have never failed me. I always give people the benefit of doubt but if they cannot cross the 5 year benchmark, they are probably not real. People usually cannot pretend for so long. And I kiss myself every time I prove myself right. Every single fucking time. And I have always been right!
Perhaps it is experience from learning from hanging out with adults all my life as a growing child. From the age of 8, I’d be hovering around my aunt and my mom (along with their huge variety of ‘friends’), listening to all their conversations, solving problems, helping others, you name it. You learn a lot as a child. And then as a teenager, mom was truly ACE with relationships. She KNEW a good person from a not so good person upon first glance. I don’t know how she does it. And even if I knew those people for months, Mom would still tell me he’s no good or she’s no good. And I would fight with her as a rebellious youth, how dare she condemn my friends, those who had stuck with me and gave me so much. How dare she!? Well, she was right all along…….she was always right. So bloody intuitive she was, my Mom. Oh, how I miss her.
Mom would always notice the little signs and in that, I picked it up too.
So I have this amazing friend who has been through so much in life that you cannot imagine that SHE has been through all that. She is the sweetest, gentlest, most soft spoken kampung girl. Yet, this tough bitch can fight white men and put people in prison, ok? Then I have another friend who has been raped and been through a roller coaster life of ups and downs yet today is so successful that you would never have imagined that she had been through so much in her life. Another Doctor friend, used to suffer from anorexia and bulimia. Come to think of it, I have quite a few friends who suffered from childhood insecurities which is why I hold such an affinity to help women. Women are always killing themselves. Why? They must learn to empower. We have so much power. My Mom was always a woman everyone else got jealous of. I do not know why. She was a good person. A really good person. And people hated her for being that. Women hated her because their husbands’ ogled at her. Get a life.
So before you make a judgement about someone, know that behind the mask, could lie someone very, very different. Someone who is the least of your expectations. You never really know until you know. I am one such blessed person who wins the trust of many who dares to reveal their face behind the mask. And I will never tell. Because I am a fucking great friend like that.
**************************************************************************Who is Mamapumpkin?
Mamapumpkin spent 7 years in London committing crimes to gain her Bartlett degree in Architecture. She then spent 7 years as a Stay At Home Mom raising her children as documented in this blog of over 15 years thereafter returning to the Corporate World stronger than ever as the Country Director of a British Multinational. She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.
Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.
She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.
A beautiful life without limits.
If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.
Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.
Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.
