The decision to write this article was inspired by an article lately that discuss about how Feng Shui has been over promoted and how some practitioners have so called claimed to have created millionaires. It sparks an interesting questions, in which I quote “Will those Feng Shui practitioners then also lay claimed to the unsuccessful ones (millionaires they have yet to create)?

So then we will need to ask the final critical question. Does it create millionaires or not? Feng Shui does NOT create millionaires BUT it does help the person in making their million(s) and perhaps maintaining their million(s). Ideas, Action, Marketing, Timing and Luck does play a vital roles in the process of creating a millionaire.

Feng Shui can help a person to have a steady flow of opportunities but if the person is thick as a plank, then capitalizing on those opportunities would be near to impossible. Does that mean that Feng Shui does not work for that person? It works because in one way or the other that person’s life is enhance by it whether financially or in their health aspect.

The factor of Heaven, Earth and Human always needs to coherently aligned to achieve a specific purposes. Simply it means Timing, Timing and Timing. Even if the company have the best Feng Shui in the world and they are trying to market a product that already is nearing its ending cycle, then nothing much can be done to achieve an outstanding result. It is simply impossible.

In brief, what does all this mean? Feng Shui is the best tool for dealing with circumstances that you have no control upon. Mainly luck and opportunities that seems to reveal itself in the correct time and situations. Once Feng Shui is in place to deal with this 2 critical factors in your outcome then the for the rest of your plan you will need to have you own skillful planning, executing and excellent team strategies to get you where you want to go.

In simple sailing metaphor, you can control the sail and you crew and decide where you want to go. You can’t control the storm, sunshine, or possible typhoon you will encounter in your journey to a destination. Feng Shui is maximizing your chance of having a journey filled with clear blue sky and strong winds to aid your sail in reaching the destination faster. Of course you will still need to have the necessary skills as the captain (self – management) of that ship, a good crew and also know where you are going!
