Review: The Warrior Mindset

Image
I am the kind of person who loves reading books that help inspire people. And it has been a way for me to express how I feel about certain situations through writing an inspirational blog which I have written more than 4 years ago. I have read “ Chicken Soup for the Soul ” and “ The Purpose- Driven Life ” and have treated it as my “heart softener” – a reminder of reality. They are books that have helped me go through my everyday struggles, to have a better understanding of what life is and to be happy despite everything that may not have gone the way I planned. I came across an e-book entitled “The Warrior Mindset”, written by Armando Bartolome . He is one of the well-sought business consultants and the man behind the success of a lot of big companies in the Philippines including Mang Inasal, Julie’s Bakeshop, and Fiorgelato , just to name a few. Being in the business for so many years, he did not only focus on how to help build the business of the people who sought his ...

Depression Cover Up

via GIPHY We face different challenges in our lives every day. We may overcome some of them quite easily. Some may not be even big enough to really matter. But what happens when we encounter one huge problem and we cannot seem to find ways to cope up? When we refrain ourselves from opening up what is in our thoughts, we end up suffering not just causing sleeplessness nights but eventually, the psychological struggle may need some medical intervention. Not all people may have the same tolerance to pain or disappointment. And so we hear from the news sometimes that there are people who just kill themselves because of too much pressure in their lives that they could not handle. It is natural to take some time off to look through things and assess whatever it is that has been bothering you. But learn to snap off from that depressive state. When one starts to seclude from everyone else, this should cause alarm. Being alone and not having someone to talk to, can be a poiso...

Clear Your Thoughts....Heal Your Heart

Time comes when we feel like we are left in a cold, dark room. All the pain and feeling of self-pity envelopes our soul. This may be your lowest point in life. How do you help yourself to break free from all the negative energy? The power of prayer has been proven to be the least expensive way of saving yourself from total destruction. Inflicted pain caused by our painful past, horrible present and doubtful future may lead you nowhere but to an endless tunnel of hopelessness. No matter which religious sect you belong to, believing that something good will always turn out will help you accept reality, move on and learn to accept challenges in a positive way. Remember, every one else may suffer from difficulties in life. It's just a matter of knowing your way out of it and make a full turn around. Today is Valentine's Day! There are a lot of people who exert a lot of effort to let their loved ones feel extra special. But of course, there are also others who feel lonely ...

Life's Lemons and More

Becoming a Zombie You wake up in the morning faced with a routine that has conquered your life for the past ten years. You no longer feel challenged doing the same job but you know well enough that it pays you good money but the drive just doesn't seem to be there. What do you do? It is a tough decision between having the kind of job that has paid you well but has totally consumed all your strength and interest. And it is another thing to look for one new job that might tickle your mind and push you to a new level. You just can't get a new job when you want to. You need to think things through. Sometimes more than just thinking about what makes you happy, you should also consider how it would affect the people that depend on you.  To ignite that lost sizzle into your routine job, you need to give yourself a break. Take a short vacation and get recharged by having time for yourself. All your perseverance may just be going nowhere if you don't love yourself. Li...
