Learn what you need to learn. I got it from a friend. Makes sense to me. A lot of us don’t really know what we really need to learn. We just go to school and go to class and go home. That’s it. Seldom do we demand for knowledge. We think asking for it makes us dumb but in reality, its the opposite.

When I studied my first short course on DBTC, I was  ask by them what I want to learn. I appreciated what they did and seldom would anyone offer that. It is nice to study in class that you are interested in. It gives you more excitement because you want to learn that.  Its a powerful tool you can use. Asking is the key. Of course ask those with the knowledge. Maybe you want to learn how to dance and you ask a plumber how. Learn what you need to learn.

When you found your mentor, follow his advices. For sure, he won’t bring you to any harm and maybe his advices are kinda tough but mentors know best. He is a pro on that league. He knows the pros and cons. Trust him. /no1

Following tips from mentors are tough at first. It requires you to be diligent and more energetic. My mentor wants me to be more energetic (kinda slow in moving) and be mingle with the family.  I lack self motivation and diligence. Treasure valuable advices and be punctual on tasks given. I admit i have not followed some of my mentors tips. That is why I lost valuable wisdom I could have consumed. But its not too late (I think).

I have learned what I need to learn. But I want to learn more.

Say No to the Good so you can say Yes to the Great.

We can never know the great things in life if we would just settle for good things. If you can achieve higher than being good, Why not hustle for it? If you know good things but you have greater ideas, why not try it? You can never know how great you are if you are contented with being good. Maybe the risks of being great are bigger but if you succeed, you will be filled with overflowing happiness. Don’t you want to feel that?

Abraham Lincoln said “Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle”. As to my understanding to this quote, good things come to those who wait. But GREAT things come upon to those who hustle. There is a huge gap on greatness and being good. Greatness come upon those who threw up being good.

EN OW stands for NO(hehehehe) . I just made the the title a little twist to make it catchy. I know a lot of my blogs aren’t that interesting (T_T). But for the sake of expressing myself (which is that counts) I’ll do it. I am aware that all my writings have the same approach. Yah, feel tired of repeating the same tactic. I will just try my best for the next ones to be more interesting so better stay tuned. (LOL)

It is so hard for some of us to say no  on things we know are wrong but we like doing them (got it?). Habits that bring us temporary happiness. Because a lot of us are lonely inside, calling for somebody to make us feel better. This is where the things we thought are “good friends”. Alcohol and cigarettes are to name a few. A have a friend who is not a smoker but because a broken heart (LOL) he tried smoking. Now, I don’t know if he stills smokes but its kinda immature to do that. That smoking won’t even help you to fix your problem. That won’t make anything better at all. You see the picture?

If only I could turn back time ang say NO  to all I have done wrong. If only I can, I would have done it along time ago.

Another thing we must say NO to are the ones that does not help us onto growing and growing closer to God. Eradicate them.  No need for them to stay and no need for them to be part of you.

I can’t tell more of these because I know you get the whole picture. It is up to you whether what you choose, where you want to be, where you want to go.  As Naruto said “We are the ones who create our won destiny”

“Build a powerful support team and delegate to them”

The title of Principle 41.. Clearly states  a team of your own will be a good idea. No a Great Idea! Imagine your coaching San Antonio Spurs or mentoring a championship team. That’s how it feels! If only I could have my team now. sigh. But for now, being a team member is where I want to be. A team I could get a lot of knowledge, a team I could be worth of and a team I could have fun with. Yes, it is kind of hard to find a team like that. But i will keep on dreaming and strive to be on that team. Or maybe, I am on that team, I just don’t know it.

But oh well, I will just talk of teamwork as to my own judging. Teamwork is the building block of a team. It what makes a team versatile. Without teamwork, you are not a team. You work alone along the way just labeling yourself as a teammate. Might as well work individually. The essence of being a team is on teamwork. The way you respond and the way you execute. But this varies because there are a lot of different forms of team. A family is a team. In a company too, you are a big team. In sports there are a lot of teams. There are also lots of major transactions for them to make their “Dream Team”. Tons and tons of money just to make the deep go better. If only it is also applied in little teams. Wow, I could have been rich. LOL. But to some, the money is not what it is for. It is their passion. Money like I said a million times, is just a side dish in the plate. Passion is the meat or what we call “ulam” in tagalog. It is what makes you full and happy.

Each member of the team has a unique role or some maybe doing it the same. But all pieces must fit. Meaning when you are combined, you compliment well.

but always remember:

“There will always be someone better than you”

The problem of some is the greed for greatness. I can name a few people I know and you know how they pick on some that they are better. Yes, they may be better, but they are not the best. You must always be down to earth and humble. Know limitations and most of all,

be sport.

The legend continues! There will be a Starcraft II. Starcraft Fans will be storming the stores as soon it is released. Now, I’ll talk about Starcraft as far as I know.

Starcraft boomed in the 90’s all over the world. Starcraft features 3 major races. The Terrans, The Zergs, and the Protoss. I can’t confirm the main agenda of these races but all I know is that it is on World ownage. Meaning the strongest remains. Starcraft on just short time, captured the hearts and soul of gamers all over the world. Young and old, girl or boy was playing it. It gave the gaming world a new twist on imagination as well as to the story. The story has a lot of tricks up on its sleeves that surely shocked you as you are trying to play the game. Terrans with Zergs battling Protoss, Zergs teaming up with Protoss to annihilate the Terrans, Protoss-Terrans duo against Zergs, Infested Terrans fighting for Zergs, Heroes of races having a change of heart, the comeback of old heroes and many more. It really shocked me when I played it.The gameplay is a two thumbs-up and sorry to say, Addicting. (Yes even at that time it is even now). Structures and Morphing Creatures to make structures made it real. The beating (like a heartbeat I mean) of the Zergs every structure gave it the impression, WOW. See for yourself.

It was nearly a perfect game on that time. Even now, still a lot of gamers play it. Even though it sort of old school its still the best strategy game for me. Now, the Era of Starcraft is on progress. There will be a sequel to it. Starcraft II. I can’t wait to play it and continue where the story stopped. Surely, its going to be fun.

Raynor, Kerrigan, Duran, and Zeratul, see you soon!

I stop at this Principle blogging about the awesome book of Jack Canfield “The Success Priniciples”. Its been a loooooooooooooooooooooooooong loooooooooooooooooong time since my last post on this category. I am currently reading “The Alladin Factor” by Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen. I think it is the sequel of “The Success Principles”. A lot of Chapters of both books have same ideas and some are really the same. But the latter book is more on the importance of asking. Back to topic now.

Time Management has been the most used tactic on businesses, corporations, even at homes and many other aspects. Widely known to be the best solution. I attempted a lot of times to make but I didn’t follow them. ALL. But here I am again. On a move to improve my way of life. That is why I am calling it a shot again.

I received lots of suggestion from people as well from myself. Consistency is key. It means you have to be constant. It has to be a habit for you and it doesn’t mean stagnant. Its is totally different. Stagnant is your just there on the same place without moving. Constant is there is a motion with continuous effort of moving. That is as to my opinion. You could get the idea. If I can make it a habit to blog for 30 days, 30 days only it will be my habit forever. Now, Reading is a habit for me. Even though sometimes I don’t read books on my room, still I read things i come across. Neat isn’ it? Now, Consistency is my main goal. To be consistent on what I must do and I need to do.

1 week again of no posting. hehehehe. Got a lot of things going on my mid nowadays. my uncle got me to thinking on what’s my plan ahead. Well, I can’t blog on anything now might as well blog on these. I don’t what is going to happen to me in the near future but my Goals are firm and I think I can pull them through. I just imagine myself successful. There on my house relaxing (what I love to do), I’m just the guy who calls the big shots on the company. They don’t call me if its not that important. Got a lot of businesses going smoothly attracting bags of money from all over the world. Going leisure trips, in short enjoying life. But for now, I set aside those first for me to really experience them in the future.

My next plan I must/need to accomplish is to transfer to DBTC. Judging from expense and the quality of school, its better there. Actually its cheaper there if I get to be a student assistant. I hope my subjects gets credited so I’ll have less expense. Another plan is my own computer. I am thinking of buying part by part until its complete. SATAs are storming now. I think its better to get those so I won’t change PC for a while at the same time I won’t have difficulty finding parts. My own website and schools tribute website will be released my December when I finish my HTML. This is true now. It will be updated regularly and be maintained. Well, for now that is my chosen path. I can’t wait for next year! I have two well maintained, lots of regular visitors clean and simple websites, Arranging my migrating to another school and a working computer.. ^^

WHOA! I have done my Success blogs now! Just in the nick of time! I am looking forward to blogging everyday from now. Its kinda nice expressing myself here. I felt proud on what I have done in the past since I went here. I have achieve better than I expected and I have grown more physically and mentally.  I have a wider vision on what I want to become. I want to become successful.

I am currently studying at Informatics Institute at Cubao. I have 3 subjects equivalent to 9 units. Just got the ones with no pre-requisites because only few students enrolled this quarter. Fortunately, I got the subjects which I want to learn. HTML, Flash and Visual Basic. I had little background on HTML and surely I’ll learn more now. Just got a bit on Flash. Just saw Kuya John make  GIFs for Rsun. In visual basic clearly none. Got a few regular classmates. Probably about 4. Others are on their 2nd year and some just missed these subjects. All in all, two thumbs up.

I want to make the videos now. but unfortunately, I’m lacking materials. I am making these vids just for fun at the same time reminisce the past. I really missed my classmates and my buddies on high school. I want to make a tribute for them and the all we have been through. On PS, I got some friends requesting some pics to be edited. I have some ideas in mind but I am having a designer’s block lately. I also got some great photos to edit. Surely, they will gonna like it. Specially Pau’s.

That’s for now. I’m gonna prepare things for tomorrow. cya!
