Push
“The” Nick Vujicic graced Philippines his presence. And I thank God for the opportunity to hear him preached at CCF. The feeling of seeing him in person was different. Feels like a storm was brewing up my chest, and rains signaled to come out from my eyes. It’s heavy. Like my heart went on a buffet and gained couple of pounds after. But Nick’s not here for people to feel sorry for him. Because...

God has nothing against human effort. Hard work honors God. But working too hard that extent to lack of rest or negligence of family may understand as an inability to trust God to give our needs. We need adequate rest and times to reflect spiritually. However, this is not a reason or an excuse to be lazy. Maintain a good balance of work and rest while trusting God.

12 Things Managers Should Know
1. I have a flawed and incomplete understanding of what it feels like to
work for me.
2. My success — and that of my people — depends largely on being the master of obvious and mundane things, not on magical, obscure, or
breakthrough ideas or methods.
3. Having ambitious and well-defined goals is important, but it is useless to think about them much. My job is to focus on the small wins that...

5 Minute Management Course
Lesson 1:
A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her
shower, when the doorbell rings. The wife quickly wraps herself in a
towel and runs downstairs. When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the
next-door neighbor.
Before she says a word, Bob says, “I’ll give you $800 to drop that
towel.” After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands
naked in...

Stagecoach Prayer
Five-year-old Randy wanted a toy stagecoach for Christmas. While shopping with Mom, he found just the one he wanted. It was about 6” long and had cool wheels and dark brown plastic horses pulling it. “Mommy, I want this one. Pleeeease!” he begged. As young children sometimes do, he threw a tantrum, insisting that he get that stagecoach for Christmas. Mom said, “We’ll...

Wolves
An old Cherokee told his grandson: “My son, there’s a battle between two wolves inside us all. One is Evil. It’s anger, jealousy, greed, resentment, inferiority, lies and ego. The other is Good. It’s joy, peace, love, hope, humility, kindness and truth.” The boy thought about it and asked: “Grandfather, which wolf wins?”. The old man quietly replied:...

Humility
It requires Humility to admit mistakes. Saying “I was wrong” or “I need advice” is difficult to utter because Pride is present. In every quarrel, Pride is there. Stirring up conflict and dividing people. It also distance you from the lessons that life wants to teach you. On the other hand, Humility heals. It mends broken relationships, and it gives wisdom.

Trust the Director
This post may contain spoilers from the movie Ironman 3, so if you haven’t watched it yet, I strongly suggest to continue reading after you watched the film.
There are much to love in Ironman 3. For me it was the stunts, the creativity of how he uses his gadgets, remote control suits, and the humor of Tony Stark. But somehow I cannot overlook the disappointments I had about the film. 2 things...
