Time and The Theory Of Everything

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. - Steve Jobs They say time is money. I've been hearing about this for all my life but not until I re-framed my thinking about time. I did not realize the value of time before. I thought the cliche quote about time is money only applies to businessmen, because they are the ones making money anyways. But as soon as I grasped the value of time and how it affects everything in our lives gave me a different lens in looking at the world. One time when I was in the shower, something struck me. I remembered a person telling me that she doesn't have time. I was meditating on the idea of time for a while back then. That could someone really be out time? And

Think Small To Achieve Big

"With great power comes great responsibility." - Ben Parker, Spiderman RESPONSIBILITY: Big Word We all know this quote from the movie Spiderman. And it truly is. But sometimes, things are too big that we end up overwhelmed and paralyzed. Overcoming the small things is much harder than the bigger ones. Why? Because we consider them small. We say, 'Meh! I think I'll do it later." We procrastinate. Yet they are so easy! So, I realized that I should be focusing on the smaller things because they make up the bigger ones in the long run. But it doesn't mean I won't be doing the bigger ones. It's just that the smaller ones are just... well smaller.  Responsibility knows no size. Either its's small or big. It's all the same. It is when we take full responsibility to do, not the bigger things, but what is important and what needs to be done. No matter how small or big it is. Small Thinking: Big Outcome Overcome the smaller things

Why I Don't Have A New Year's Resolution

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!" 2 Corinthians 5:17 "When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me." 1 Corinthians 13:11 The Problem: The Resolution It's the time of the year where people have what is so called "The New Year's Resolution". People promise that they will not eat fatty food, that they will lose those extra pounds (worth of spaghetti, ham, lechon, and everything cholesterol), that they won't be late for work(or for school), that they will not spend too much, that they will move on (from that breakup), that they won't eat ice cream (except if your are one of the people who are moving on. Good luck!) See, these are all good things to consider but based on the idea of a resolution, there is this idea that there's something to resolve.

An Inch, A Yard and A Foot

"Who thinks an inch, but talks a yard, needs a kick in the foot." ~ Chinese Proverb That is a quote I read before way back in college. I still remember it till now by memory. I just don't know who said it so for the benefit of the doubt, I Googled it. And so, I still learn something new: geez I'm getting old (aside from it's a Chinese Proverb). I really like that quote because it has some wit in it to use the words of measurement and to imply to disdain inaction. Here in The Philippines we have a proverb that says, "Ang hindi marunong lumingon sa pinanggalingan, hindi makararating sa paroroonan." (The one who never looks back won't ever arrive to his destination.) That proverb tells something about looking back and paying tribute to the people that were behind your success. Because no man's an island and there is really no 'self-made' success. But what I also like about the proverb is that it tells something about another thing

The Journey of A Thousand Miles Starts With A Baby Step

Hi, there! :) I'm Keith and this is my first post in my blog. I hope to document all my efforts, experiences, successes, failures and struggles of a person aspiring to be a CEO someday. Well, it might take me a long road or a fast track. I may never know what'll happen but that is the fun side of it, right? :) I made this blog so that I can inspire and help other people from all around the globe who share the same aspirations and dreams that I have; so they may be empowered that anything is possible when you put your mind, heart and soul into it. Your mind; so that you may clearly see. Your heart; as your fuel so that you may keep going. Your soul; that you may seek God when it seems something bigger than you blocks your way. I am very excited to share this path so that I may learn from you and others may learn from me as well. Thanks for reading :)
