I just attended an amazing conference last week in Charlotte and one of the key takeaways I brought home with me is to be comfortable being uncomfortable. When we were born, most, if not all of us, were uncomfortable living outside our mother’s womb. That’s the reason why babies cry but over a few hours, […]
Always think positive, that’s what they usually say or advise to people who are dealing with something. But recently, I have been pondering whether it is really beneficial to always be positive. So my university’s men’s basketball team is competing for the championship for the first time in 32 years! The last time they […]
What is freedom for you? Is it not being in jail? Is it being financially free? Is it having no problems? I was talking to my coach and we discussed what freedom is like. Not actually the goal of the session but it went there. That’s the beauty of talking to someone that won’t […]
I am down with a really bad cold, and usually, when I have this type of cold, I’ll have an asthmatic attack after a couple of days. Pretty sure I got this from my commute to work, well it’s flu and cold season now here in Canada so most commuters can’t help but get sick. […]
Have you ever want something so bad but when you get it, you realized that what you already had is what you really want? If you have been following me, I shared that my contract was not renewed and that led to me being out of the workforce for 52 days, the longest break […]

I remember an advertisement on TV by Nescafe when I was still in the Philippines. The main question in the ad is “Who do you wake up for in the morning?” and that’s what we will try to answer today. The question “Who do you wake up for in the morning?” is almost synonymous to […]
I love listening to podcasts when driving. I think it’s one good way of using my alone time as I’m hitting two birds with one stone, me getting to where I’m supposed to go (literally) and me continuing my journey towards self-improvement. I’m currently listening to the Mindvalley Podcast and this reflection is about one […]
While I’m waiting for my next contract to start, I have been keeping myself busy with a lot of things. Bringing and fetching my daughter to school, writing a book, boxing, playing video games, investing time on my coaching practice and most recently, joining an orchestra. I’m not sure if I have told you before, […]
Values are the principles people live by. They are what drive people and make them tick. Values are unique per person because they are what they think are important in their lives.
