First Page. This is my personal life page where I start to learn things on my own. A life at young age until ready to be part of the working class.

Second Page. Is where my professional life is writen. In here are my works experiences, my network circle and future business plans. The empire that I am about to build and the people that will benefit from it.

Third Page. In this page is the combination of my learnings from the first and second page, if not most out of the second page. I would say, as an adult. Also in here, a bit of challenges, excruciating  and painstaking journeys I have to endure either with myself, co-worker or my boss.

Fourth Page. A page in where people I keep. This will be a short page, because only real and close people will be in it. That no matter where we are and how far we will be, the friendship will still be there and alive through worsts and success. No questions asked. Only pure intentions and awesome relationship. These are the people we want to be as we and when we grow old until we reach our time.

Fifth Page. My giving back page. As a philanthropy, coach, mentor and a teacher. Anyone is welcome. It is a two way communication and you must be willing to listen, learn and ready to grow.

Now, which page do you belong in my life?

I will see you in the next page.

Of being patriotic

Are you patriotic? What does being patriotic mean to you?

Am I patriotic?

I would say yes.

In everything I do, I always think of the country where I came from. My roots, who really I am.

Being patriotic have different meanings to everyone.

Being patriotic to me means you are serving your country without you doing differently. In short, be good and do good.

Your success will be the success of your family, friends and relatives and it correspond to where you came from.

That is patriotism, when you fell short, stand, make up and move on.

Being patriotic means you have dealt with the things that not ordinary people knew ever exist.

Over the years

How do significant life events or the passage of time influence your perspective on life?

Time change and so are events.

Some events you can control, and some you don’t.

Over time, I realized that in life, you have to meditate and analyze what just happened.

In doing that, you will have a clearer understanding on why things need to happen. They happen in different reasons, in different times.

At the moment, my perspective in life is to make sure I have more time spent with my love ones. Read as much as I can that interests me.

Learn as much as my brain can still absorb.

Because at the end, my life is my own, alone. Whatever I become, it is who I am.

How about you? Feel free to comment below. I want to read them.

None

What do you complain about the most?

When an issue arise, I tend to kill and ignore it on the spot.

For example, you’re late because of sometimes being lazy. You could blame yourself but until when?

So, better be, leave it alone.

I am a positive thinker person. I see opportunity in every challenges.

Like in Canada, about 10 cm of snow. I know I have to plow and snow blow my drive way.

I start early and it feels like somebody done it for me. I see my neighbor while doing the task and we had a conversation.

When you attract and think positively, it will turn things around.

I don’t need you to believe me, try it for yourself.

Being together

Write about a few of your favorite family traditions.

Togetherness with all family members and their families is one of the traditions our family observes.

Every occasion, every moment of light, not so light and some just ordinary day in the weekend.

But now, since everyone is scattered around in the world, every two years maybe a luck.

But I look forward to it every time this thought and opportunity arise.

Transparent and Fair

What makes a good leader?

Aha!

What really makes a good leader?

Some take the role and take advantage of it. That’s not the reality, what it is is the excitement of having the title. Well, for beginners.

When you asked seasoned leaders, they drive people.

They lead them, support them, encourage them and let them be better than themselves.

Why? Because that’s what great leaders do.

Mold people and create more leaders.

Not every one wants to take the lead, take it from me.

When it’s your time to lead others, be transparent and fair. Being so gives you the benefit of the doubt to be trusted and balance.

It’s a skill, not every leader master.

To all the leaders who have applied this, cheers to you and all who will adopt it.

Bad chemicals

If you could un-invent something, what would it be?

It has nothing to do with anyone but the choice of us, people.

As years goes by, technology helps humanity to survive and strive.

One if it is using chemicals in the food we take.

Moderately use of it help with the demand, but upping the content of it to reduce time to produce it is a little unacceptable.

Time is a precious thing any one could have. But dying young should not be the goal.

Life must be taken care of and that is for everyone to look for what they eat.

I just hope that there would be more Blue zones in the world.

Is it for me to decide? No.

It is on individuals own life.

Water.

Want a natural remedy?

Drink water.

Want to treat a headache?

Drink water.

Have high cholesterol?

Drink water.

It’s no question our body needs 80 percent water.

You don’t have to drown.

Just take what you’re comfortable of.

When you feel you’re okay, then great.

But never miss to drink a, Water.

In a matter

What are you waiting for?

It’s just a matter of time when your goals can be achieved.

Chase the time to make it happen and never waste time staring and dreaming of it.

Slowly but surely?

No, do something now and things will be in place.

See you on the other side.
