What are your limiting beliefs?
Two years ago, I’ve had my first ever dance recital. Okay, it was not just a recital. It was a dance concert held at Star Theater in Pasay City. It was not just a dance concert. It was a Douglas Nierras Dance Concert. What was so special about this dance concert? I was never a dancer. I remember when I was still an employee. I joined a dance class sponsored by our company. Day 1, I was able to follow the steps. Day 2, I couldn’t follow the steps anymore. So I stopped attending the dance classes. I had this mindset: I’m not a dancer. I can never dance. Every time I would be invited to…

Let me share with you a little secret about how you can get round trip tickets for free!

A Christmas Gift for OFWs
I was in Dubai a few weeks ago and I met this young IT professional while riding a van from Abu Dhabi to Dubai. She was worried because her company closed down and now she has to look for another job before her visa expires. Just a few weeks prior to that, I was in Singapore to attend a conference. One Sunday, I decided to hang out in a park. There were so many Filipinos who were having a picnic. It was their day off. Then I noticed a Filipina in her 50’s who was sitting by herself. While everyone else was with a group of friends, she was there,…

Three Things I Discovered about Happiness that Awed Me
How are you? What does happiness mean to you? When I was much younger, happiness to me means achieving my goals, getting what I want, being treated well, etc. As I grow, I realized what real happiness means. Lately, I’ve experienced three setbacks that made me appreciate what real happiness is. Setback #1: When I got home a few nights ago, I found out that we had no electricity. Normally, I’d be tempted to get upset. Instead, I smiled and said,“Wow! This is going to be a unique experience. It’s camping night tonight. What an adventure.” Takeaway #1: Happiness is finding something amusing in a seemingly not-so-good situation. (Btw, our electricity was back…

WCP 011 : Slow down
How was your week? Last Sep 23, 2017, 12 new graduates of The 90-Day Book Writing Challenge (BWC) launched their books. You should have seen how happy and proud their families and friends were. As of now, the registration to The 90-Day BWC is currently closed. If you have dreams to write your own book, you may join the wait list/notification list here. This week, I’d like to remind you to slow down. Funny because last week we talked about commitment, right? Yes, it’s important to be committed to our dreams and goals. But it’s also very important to be committed to our rest. I’m sharing this based from…
