Zabrina A. Bakar is a wonderfully talented author and one of our latest
B1G1 BUSINESS members. She's totally radiant and simply delightful to
spend time with.
Zabrina took all of 3 seconds to make her Buy1GIVE1 giving happen.
Zabrina got to know of Buy1GIVE1 just a few weeks before the launch of
her second book. She always believed in giving back and has supported a
number of charities in the past. However, encountering Buy1GIVE1 was a
real eye-opener to a new world of giving for her. She even came up with
the cause she wanted to support locally and suggested this cause to
come on board with B1G1.
18 Secrets
Each of her Life is an Open Secret book series contains 18 secrets of life that enhance readers' self-confidence, positive actions and love for success in both material and spiritual lives. In her latest book, Life is an Open Secret - You, Me and We, Zabrina emphasises the importance of taking care of 'We-ness' to achieve success, wealth, tranquility and harmony in life.
"I am Muslim, you see, and many people have prejudice for Muslims these days. I write to communicate that we are all the same. We are all equally loving, giving and caring."
It's this 'togetherness' that more and more Buy1GIVE1 BUSINESS members are attracted to. Simply making a difference - together. Zabrina expresses the joy of sharing with her entire body, glowing like a sunflower.
Her new book now shows and shares this message :
Every copy of 'Life is an Open Secret' purchased,
feeds a child nutritious school meals for one week,
enhancing the joy of learning.
Just Asking!
Oh, and there is one more secret from her.
At the end of the interview, I asked her another simple question with pure curiosity, "How did you manage to attract all those corporate sponsors and media people to support you in the beginning?"
I couldn't resist this, as I was totally amazed to see how she achieved so much in just a year. But her answer was very simple to my surprise.
"I just asked!" she grinned.
Well, are there things we haven't done or haven't asked for just because we thought we would get a "No" answer? Maybe the biggest secret of life is about this attitude - believing in ourselves and others and the things we can achieve together.
We can also let go of limiting beliefs and start being the real gift to the world - living with 'The Open Secret' just like Zabrina does everyday.
