mga payo ni roxana
Hindi porket hindi niya nagagawa ang mga nagagawa mo, e hindi ka na mahalaga; minsan kailangan mo lang makontento, sa kaya niyang ibigay sayo.
Mga Payo ni Roxana
Hindi lahat ng nagagawa mo para sakanila, e kaya nilang gawin para sayo.. may mga tao talagang para sakanila, hindi ka ganon kahalaga.

CHANGE WHAT YOU ARE AND CHANGE WHAT YOU GET by Francis Kong
What is your philosophy in life?
This does not mean that you have to be a philosopher but you and I live with our own philosophies and our philosophy in life will determine for us our destiny for success or failure.
Oliver Goldsmith says: “There is nothing so absurd or ridiculous that has not at some time been said by some philosopher.”
Listen to this crazy philosophy from an unknown philosopher. He says:
Over the years, I have engaged in considerable deep thought about (among other things): Our place in the universe, ancient civilizations, human migrations, international conflicts, local and world economics, ozone depletion, the human genome, cloning, pollution, racism, local and world politics, population growth, extinctions, natural disasters, the environment, health care, the Internet, human relations, the space-time continuum and other aspects of relativity, and other factors that affect mankind's struggle to exist.
After all of that deep thought, I have arrived at this conclusion: When all is said and done, in spite of or because of what we may or may not do or think, it is just as likely as not that, for better or for worse, everything will turn out one way or another, sooner or later.
Sounds profound but means absolutely nothing.
But the truth is that a sound philosophy for life will bring about a better life.
Listen to what the late popular speaker Jim Rohn has to say about the challenge of life. It’s a philosophy for success. Jim says:
Here's the great challenge of life - You can have more than you've got because you can become more than you are.
I have found that income seldom will exceed your own personal development. Once in a while income takes a lucky jump, but unless you grow out to where it is it will go back to where you are.
Somebody once said if you took all the money in the world and divided it among everyone equally, it would soon be back in the same pockets. However, you can have more because you can become more. You see, here is how the other side of the coin reads - unless you change how you are, you will always have what you've got. The marketing plan won't do it. It's a good plan but it won't work without you. You've got to work it. It is the human effort that counts. If you could send a sales manual out to recruit - wouldn't that be lovely? The major thing that makes the difference is what YOU do.
In order to have more, you need to become more.
The guy says "If I had a good job I would really pour it on, but I have this lousy job so I just goof off." If that is your philosophy you are destined to stay there. Some people say if I had a lot of money I would be really generous, but I don't have much so I'm not generous.
See, you've got to change that philosophy or you will never have "the lots of money". Unless YOU change, IT won't change.
Amazingly, however, when we throw out our blame list and start becoming more ourselves - the difference is everything else will begin to change around us.
My philosophy changed when I discovered the Bible.
Blessed is he who does not walk in the counsel of the jerks and losers, stand in the path of sinners or sit in the seat of scoffers…but in the Bible he meditates day and night…and in what ever he does, he prospers.
The thing is I first need to become more before I can be given more. And this is an irrefutable principle for life.
A CONFUSED LIFESTYLE by Francis Kong
I used to be in the fashion business and it fascinated me.
Though we claim to be a country that is struggling with poverty the Filipino will always be updated as far as the latest fashion is concerned.
We read the latest fashion magazines watch amazed at the world’s prettiest men and women donning their designer clothes in Fashion cable channels and we pick them up.
The amazing thing is to realize that in a very materialistic 21st century world we are in today, rather than fashion imitating life, life is imitating fashion.
Bordering on confusion, human beings behave in very strange ways.
Consider the following:
- We wear Safari clothes and we’ve never been to a jungle.
- We wear Aerobic footwear and we never set foot in an aerobics class.
- We wear a deep sea dive watch and we never get wet.
- Those beautiful and expensive pilot’s watch we buy yet we do not know how to fly a plane.
- We drive a 4 wheel drive truck in the middle of manila traffic.
- We have architectural magazines we don’t read filled with pictures of furniture we don’t like.
- We have financial strategy software installed in a computer we don’t know how to work.
- We have art poster for an exhibit we never went to of an artist we never heard of.
This is called abstract materialism.
One day a young executive got into an accident in his brand new Jaguar after having too many drinks in their office Christmas party.
As he made a turn he missed it and went straight into a tree suffering from a serious crash. It was a wonder he got out of the debris alive but did found one of his arms missing.
People milled around the wreck and heard him saying, “Oh no. Look what happened to my Jaguar. My beautiful Jaguar.”
One of the spectators was amazed and said, “Hey mister. You’re still worried about your car you should be glad to be alive. Don’t you know that you’ve lost an arm?
The executive quickly turned to see that one of his arms was indeed missing. And so he cried out loud saying: “Oh no. My Rolex too. I lost my Rolex too!”
Understand this.
The more you have to live for, the less you need to live on. Those who make acquisition their goal never have enough.
And the worst thing that could happen is to force yourself into a materialistic lifestyle by borrowing money you can’t pay to impress people you don’t like.
The world today is divided into 3 kinds of people:
- The have’s
- The have-not’s
- And the have-not-paid-for-what-they-have’s
Do not fall into this trap.
The science and art of happiness is really simple.
I have heard so many motivational speakers dwell on the same theme but the one who impresses me most is the major contributor to the New Testament the apostle Paul who said, “I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.”
If you don’t stop looking at the things you don’t have, you will fail to appreciate the things you now have and that is a sure recipe for misery.
Abstract materialism has no place in your life and mine.
Love God serve men work hard, play hard and pray hard.
This is the secret to the fulfilled life.
