How To Stay Enthusiastic

I think it is not a question of how anymore, but rather on what makes Pinoy enthusiastic. The answer of course, can be anything. Pinoys always find reason to get together and have fun: Christmas, New Year, all soul’s day, birthdays, christenings, graduation, retirement, fiesta, a family member coming home from abroad, a going away party, reunion, weddings and so much more. There will always be food on the table, someone singing on the karaoke and a few drinks of beer for anyone.

According to Wikipedia: “Enthusiasm originally meant inspiration or possession by a divine afflatus or by the presence of a god. Johnson's Dictionary, the first comprehensive dictionary of the English language, defines enthusiasm as "a vain belief of private revelation; a vain confidence of divine favour or communication." In current English vernacular the word simply means intense enjoyment, interest, or approval.”

The modern meaning of enthusiasm is being energetic, having the joys and wonders to live in the moment. They enjoy themselves and they have a zest for life.

The modern version is much like the attitude of most Pinoys. Our ability to stay positive amidst poverty, problems and heartaches makes us go through whatever it is that we are going through no matter how difficult it is. This is also the reason why we are able to sacrifice being away from our family and work abroad.

In a question of how, the answer is simple: one, we know that we are doing something that is beyond us, this we can endure the hardships and second, we have the ability to be grateful and celebrate our blessings in every small way we can. Pinoys also find strength in each other. You can see that not just here in the Philippines, but also abroad. As they say, there is strength in numbers and we seem to always find a fellow kababayan anywhere we are.

Danny Choo’s Success Path…an Inspiration

This would be my second infographic for this year. I’ve created this through our mentor’s assignment in Online Mentoring Club by Jomar Hilario. This is a part of our training so as  to be a successful internet marketer. Our task was to read Danny Choo’s life pattern. See the ups and down, success pattern and the like.  At first I do not want to do this because it’s so boring, but when you started reading Danny Choo’s stories from day one…it’s like Pringles, once you pop…you just can’t stop.  This person really inspires me, I do not know everything about him but I am now beginning to pattern my life to his. I can relate myself to him and his stories. If you are curious about this person, you can visit his website http://www.dannychoo.com/ and know what I mean.

I think he inspires me to create this website…my own online portfolio, though I do not want to do this at first because people might think who the he** is Cecille Solmerano? But I do not care what people might think, I have fans! my mom, my husband, my sisters and my dog Callie. =) hehehe…just kidding. I know someday, my children would recognize how great their mom was and how she added value to other people’s lives by her own simple way.

Quote of the Day: Honesty is still the best policy

Before us lie two paths - honesty and dishonesty. The shortsighted embark on the dishonest path; the wise on the honest. For the wise know the truth; in helping others we help ourselves; and in hurting others we hurt ourselves. Character overshadows money, and trust rises above fame. Honesty is still the best policy - Napoleon Hill

I may fight with my siblings...but

I may fight with my siblings. But once you lay a finger on them, you'll be facing me!

Saw this quote at pinterest and It really catches my attention. I remember the time when I fought with my siblings when we were children. I really hated them with all my might and wanted to kill them (just kidding). But I also remember the time when my siblings fought for me whenever somebody bullied me at school. Realizing that whatever happens to you, your family will always be there for you NO MATTER WHAT. 

And with this insight, it is true that you don't choose your family. They are God's gift to you, as you are to them. 

Love my brother and my two sisters. No matter what, we will always be together.
