An Ideal Student

I think this would be more applicable to this site because most of the members here are students. I was once a student like you. I experienced most if not all what you have experience. The stress and the rush are always part of being student. Lessons are from here and there. Attend class every day. Meet with friends and classmates. Study lessons and make assignments. These are some of the activities that a student should have. Passing or failing...

Notes on Motivation

What is motivation? What motivates you as a person? Is there any great one thing that ultimately motivates us? In Psychology, motivation is defined as the process that initiates, guides and maintains goal-oriented behaviors. Motivation is what causes us to act, whether it is getting a glass of water to reduce thirst or reading a book to gain knowledge. It involves the biological, emotional, social and cognitive forces that activate behavior. In everyday...

Who makes our Destiny?

I am really bothered with this question. In fact, I am always asking the same question. Who really make our destiny? Is it God or You created your own destiny? According to Wikipedia, destiny refers to a predetermined course of events. It may be conceived as a predetermined future, whether in general or of an individual. It is a concept based on the belief that there is a fixed natural order to the cosmos. But again who determines destiny? There...

Writing Out Your Dreams will make it Happen!

Do you have dreams? What are you dreaming for? Is it big or small? Have you bothered to write down your dreams? One of my professors said that writing down your dreams will help you to realize your dreams. He said that writing dreams will always remind you to do something out of it. This will somehow give you a path to where are you heading for. This will guide you to what you want in life. Putting dreams in black and white make you more aware of...

"Tourism is Everybody's Business"

I will not make criticisms to the initiatives made by the Tourism Council and the Provincial Tourism Office of Negros Oriental. I will just present here some comparisons on what Bohol and Negros Oriental did for making an effective action in promoting their different tourist spots. I hope this presentation will help us to understand our participation in making our province more aggressive in developing our natural and man-made tourist attractions. Bohol and Negros Oriental are provinces in the same Region. Both provinces are under Region 7 – Central Visayas. Both provinces have something to show in terms of beautiful tourist attractions. Bohol...

Wonders of the Nature of Man

How does man defines his rationality? How does man act? And how he deals with the environment he belongs? Man has his perfection and his imperfections. He is perfect in the order of being, but is insufficient in the order of operation. Which means that he possesses existence which makes him a complete being. He has a matter and form (body and soul) which makes him complete as a man. In that sense, he is perfect as a being. But man is insufficient...

A Finale is not always Final

Things in this world are not absolute. I guess we cannot find any absolute matter in this world just like finding the perfect one. We are on the dilemma of what actions we may think of to pursue whatever dreams we may have. We can only find the right person or right things in our life. Everything has ending. We come to a point that whatever we have right now, these will just go afterwards. Ending is always there. That is why we have to be prepared if these will happen soon. Everything being started has always ending. These are just temporary. We may encounter people and later on become your friend or someone whom you can lean on. We may experience...

Foundation of Good Behavior

If there's one thing that often to note, to emphasize and value about human beings this is nothing but his conduct or behavior.

It grips tight in the personality and this is the basis to know who will be given the highest appreciation and value. All men are molded by good values and the right disposition is the fundamental basis of all values being taught...

Is it all for Profit?

For most of us, we believe that business is all about profit. If I ask you now about business, I’m sure your answer would be business is an economic activity undertaken by businessmen for profit. This definition is not as simple in concept as it is simple statement.Business has never been easy to define and conceptualized. It is easier to go into it in practical terms. And it is easier to analyze it in specific details where thinkers and practitioners...

Six cups of coffee a day can increase your lifespan?

For those who are coffee lovers, I think you will be happy for this good news. If you think coffee is not totally good for your body, then you should be aware of this. A new study shows that drinking up to six cups of coffee a day won’t shorten your life span, and for women that daily coffee habit may even protect against heart disease. I’ve learned these things from my professor during our class in one of my courses in DBA. So, I researched this...

Habit Towards Study

All learning, however, is a process which settles into certain steps. Students with learning problems, however, may still have generally inefficient and ineffective study habits and skills. Becoming aware of your learning style will help you to understand why you sometimes get frustrated with common study methods. In these challenging times, the thirst for learning with knowledge creation as its primary goal will be utterly overwhelming. Fueled...

A good investment that pays higher benefit

With many discussions about health, I’ve learned something different today. My mind had full thoughts of what would be the right exercise to burn fats and become healthy. And I think most of us are now conscious about the things we can do to reduce the risk of having different diseases. I have known some friends who actually bothered about how they can be healthy especially the kind of lifestyle we have right now. Some of them have started to do...

Will May 21, 2011 really be the END OF THE WORLD?

I was bothered by news that May 21, 2011 is the judgment day. According to them , Jesus Christ will come and will judge the living and the dead. They said that it has proven that this is the exact date that the world will end. Then I asked myself, what will happen during that day? Does God will select those who will be in heaven and those who will be fitted to hell? I am really confused with this news. And I think familyradio.com is the one propagated...

Several definitions have been given and are enumerated as follows: Web definitions of Economics:The branch...

Management: An art or a Science?

Yes, anyone can but this would only be more effective and efficient if you have the courage and enthusiasm to handle different task in the organization.

Fight Against Self-Interest

I was shocked when I heard the news that Japan was hit by 8.9 magnitude earthquake causing tsunamis that sent a wave filled with boats and houses toward land last Friday (March 11, 2011). When I was able to look at the news, it reminds me with the movie “2012.” Tsunami swiped out the north east of Japan. I asked myself “Is it already the end of the world?” I don’t know where we are heading right now. Killings are everywhere. Typhoon and other forms...

Glance to my Hometown

I will start my blog with my experienced as I traveled to my home town - Bacong, Negros Oriental, Philippines. It's been a long time already that I was not able to visit Bacong and even to return home in Brgry. Calangag. I was not able to see the changes that the town has. I felt like a stranger to my own town. What a bad realization? But anyway, I was able to glance my home town as I was invited to accompany my neighbor together with my Auntie...
