Musings #3

    Na-miss ko magsulat and there are a lot of things going through my mind lately.
 
  • Will I achieve 8 of 8 critical metrics this month?
  • How will I ever manage to pass all BPMS requirements considering I have to do a lot of pull outs for training and coaching and I want to make sure that my agents are well abreast - since because I want 8 of 8 achieved? 
  • BCP, again? Yeah, Dec 4th and it's a client mandate. No choice. 
  • IIAR, KCO Testing, Audit, Audit, Audit. 
  • Will I finally get promoted? 
  • What was the purpose of me staying in AU where all of them left already and all I get is blame and dissatisfaction of what has happened and what I have done. I feel so ineffective when these happen and lost about my goal. 
  • What was my goal, in the first place?

I lost it. 

I exactly remember back in September last year, when I was setting goal for myself, I kept on saying, my goal is to meet someone I can be with, prolly not for the rest of my life, but someone I can talk to and someone I can hang out with. 

And remember those slum notes we kept on passing around year on year? (as if answers change when we were asked, "what is love?" and "who is your crush?") I keep on saying "I just want someone I can talk to and someone I can hang out with. 

I wonder and keep on thinking if indeed, that's what I want. Not a promotion. I am not sure. Still exploring. One thing for sure though, despite that I feel a bit sad about all 8 Managers leaving AU for their own reasons, I am happy for them and I wish them all the best with their endeavors in life. I look forward to going to work everyday, because I want to know how's Micah (Carrie's daughter), find out what happened to Eileen and Ron, how's Tet coping with all her learnings, how's Lei's adjusting with her new Apprentice role, what's in Jam's mind today, what's Qtie and Recca's ulam, Kris' love story, and all other thoughts that my team can share. I look forward to every single day.

I am excited to go to work everyday because I look forward to seeing Jacob after shift, have dinner, coffee, or what not, share stuff and plans together, and stories together. 


Sweet.

200 Pesos

I remember Mike, talking in front of 100 people, a couple of years ago, started off his seminar by holding up a Php200 bill. In the room he asked. "Who would like this Php200 bill?" Hands started going up. Of course, I raised mine. He said, "I am going to give this Php200 bill to one of you" Then crumpled the 200 bill. I was surprised he did that. He then asked. "Who still wants it?" Still the hands were up in the air and again, I raised mine. "Well," he replied, "what if I do this?" He dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his black shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. "Now, who still wants it?" Still the hands went into the air and still, I wanted to get the Php200 bill. "Folks, you have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease it's value. It was still worth Php200. Many times in our lives, we ...

Be Grateful

Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift. When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trails to make you strong, enough sorrow to k...
