Photo Editing Relaxation

I spent most of my daytime all working very hard - driving traffic to my business blog(http://freebiztraffic-arsenal.blogspot.com) thru posting to other related blogs in my niche. I learned a lot of ideas from other people's business blog that pushed me to comment on their posts which took me almost 5 hours straight. But still I persisted because I had kept my business goals.

However, when the time I redirected my attention to my friendster account, I got a message from Karen requesting me to give her a one word that I could best describe her by posting it as a comment to her account. I coudn't really afford not to give her the favor. What I did was thinking deeply about her personality of what I'd noticed from her since the very beginning we had acquainted.

Through my determination to make it special, my intuition had suggested me to find a picture and put my one best word choice which I thereafter discovered. The best word is "Tranquil". I used the Photoshop software in personally doing the editing. I selected the image of a sea and did the editing by making her picture smoothly appeared at the horizon part of the sea and the sky with the label "Karen is Tranquil". I looked myself so relax viewing my well crafted design.

I hope Karen would like it very much!

Not only that, I even designed a picture together with her best friend.

I Got A Massage

After a long time hours of working for the day and as well as got my payroll, I decided to take a break and treated myself special by dropping by in a massage center.

Yet I paid much but I felt so relax and good. It seemed that I had in abundance of everything and made myself awarded for all the efforts I'm deserving to. I opted this to happen just to experience how to feel when I reached my goals (To have a financial freedom and time). That made me then to inspire and aligned with what I aspired to.

Furthermore, the night was so memorable to me, because beyond to my expectation the one who did the massage to me was a girl. At first I felt uncomfortable and uneasy, but as I began to make friends with her by asking questions. It seemed we were a long time friends before. Because she totally opened up and expressed her emotional experiences about her personal and family life to the extent that she cried unknowingly as she told her story.

I kept on listeningly her deeply and felt the emotions she wanted to project. I found out that her mother had past by already. Leaving 6 younger brothers and sisters to support with of their schooling while her father, always busy with his vices. Often times it came up to her mind to better end her sacrifices and hardworks by attempting a suicide. After pouring out all her emotions by expressing it out thru words, I noticed from her eyes and her words, a sparkle of inspiration and courage to persist and let life trials be a part of her struggles that would build her an unbreakable strong character facing boldy the odds in life.

She was then, so thankful to me because I was there to listen her life stories that made her self renewed to a new life perspective. I had known her in the name of Wenelyn at 20 years of age.

Once again, I learned from the said experience the power of listening. That somebody might ask you an advice but the truth is that they need somebody to listen and express to, that made them feel good and discovered by themselves the right advice.

Enrolling A Personal Development Courses

I arrived in the office at around 10:00 in the morning. I immediately sat down in my comfortable chair and opened my computer of which had in mind of making an action plans for the day.

It brought to my mind an interested idea to enroll myself in an abstract school name Ilaw University with the following Subject Courses which I remembered so far (Positive Thoughts Building Course, Opportunity Focus Course, Overcoming Temptation Course, Beyond My Comfortable Zone Course, Building NetWorth Course, Think And Act Fast Course,Feeling Good Course, Emphatic Listening Courses.).

I felt energetic to help myself build the character I needed to be successful in my life goals. I know its matter of inside-out approach of which all successful people have in commmon.

I'm committed to pursue my schooling until I graduated by November 2008. And I expected a lot of change in my behavior that would be crucial for the realization of my life endeavors.

Sharing My Love Experience

Late in the afternoon after I sent the proposal to Mactan Rock, I found myself in a conversation of my new marketing partner - Faith.

I remembered from the start that I'd shared to her some inspiring thoughts I read from the book "Secrets of the Millionaire Mind". She attentively heard what I'd told her in a way of advice.

I didn't know exactly what point in time that I was able to freely opened up to her my unforgettable love experiences. All I felt was very comfortable telling a story to her because she was so attentive in listening and acknowledging my story.

As I reflected the reason why I wasn't defensive telling my private story. It's because I met and talked a smart girl who was so attentive in listening. That couldn't afford me not to open up everything.

I learned the moment of conversation with her the importance of emphatic listening and reminded me once again that God gives us two ears to listen more than the single mouth for speaking.

An Inspiration

Almost lunch time I engaged in a conversation with the new hired member of Marketing Team. Her name is Faith under my supervision. I felt comfortable talking with her about her marketing experience. Beyond to my expectation I found out her remarkable marketing achievement during her very first time in marketing experience on her past employment. I was so impressed with her story about the persistence and extra effort exhausted just to realize the event she led into. It's about the Education Expo with the intended participants from the various schools of Cebu last February 2008. I found out that she was only the marketer assigned to the market of the said service.

Upon her statement that she unexpectedly able to get 40 schools from all her long time hardwork and effort of two months period of time doing marketing. She told me it was not easy to market being alone but because of her persistent to comply and conform the trust given by their boss. It seemed that there was no any way to move to another direction but to move forward.

The story telling of her gave me an light of inspiration that awaken my spirit to persist and be a result-oriented marketer all the time that would build me more confidence and a good success rate in preparation for my ideals to venture into a profitable business.

Christian Youth Conference Meeting

I was invited by email about the Christian Youth Officers Meeting. And confirmed it by myself in the person of Bro. Ivan, the acting secretariat of the organization.

I arrived at the meeting 30 minutes late. Unexpectedly it surprisingly brought to my attention the preparedness I observed from them. Not only they provided me a computerized name tag with my name printed on it but as well as the arrangement of the attendees from their respective chairs turning it around.

The venue of the meeting was conducive for a brainstorming of ideas which I tasted favorable. I was keenly observant of the minutes of the meeting guided from the well-formatted agenda distributed among the attendees.

I considered the event a remarkable and memorable one because I met all the active christian officers so familiar to me. I felt comfortable meeting with them because I had a good impression with their character. Especially my co-officers who were very close to me which have a same level of thinking in general - being professional from its field of interest.

We spent a whole day time dedicated and cooperative with the leadership of the incoming president of Youth Organization(Kadiwa), Bro. Ruben Licera.

Even we went home exhausted from the whole day activity, but had experience a feeling of deep satisfaction and happiness.
