Dearest readers,
This is my Lenten special and so I dedicate this
column to all those letter senders that have been writing to me ever
since I begun writing here. Thank you for your undying support. In
this time of the year, I can summarize what we’re most likely to
do or should do in one word: reflection.
I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this to any
of my speeches but let me put this on record. I’m an avid fan of
Lea Salonga. Lea as a singer not only reminds me of how being a
Filipino is something to be always proud of, she also translate
every lyrics of her songs to a live, affective advice for me.
Life had never been that friendly at least to
many who have been ignorant about how it works. This is basically
one of the reasons why people get depressed and most of the time
disappointed. They expect too much and yet they work too little. Or,
they work too hard but they seem to not get something spectacular.
When I spoke before the officers of the Senate
Electoral Tribunal a couple of days ago, I pointed out that if they
don’t want the way they’ve lived their lives in the last 10
years, they can always decide to change its course toward the next
10 years starting now.
This is what Lea’s song “Reflection” can
come in.
Who is that girl I see staring straight back at
me?
Why is my reflection someone I don’t know?
Somehow, I cannot hide who I am, though I’ve tried
When will my reflection show who I am inside?
This is one best time of the year to look at the
mirror and examine very carefully what you have become in the last
10 years and see if you’re getting closer to your dream life. This
is a perfect time not just to relax but to have a talk with your
self.
There are so many questions you need to answer
and when you’re able to learn those answers, sometimes reasons,
you can start a new journey toward personal success.
You are what you see in your mirror. But the
good news is you can change that reflection if you’d change the
way you think and the way you choose your actions and emotions.
The first quarter of the year is ending and so
far I’ve got a total of 15 speaking engagements. What a great
scenario to replay! And that’s because I love changing my
reflection for the better all the time.
Every day is a perfect day to start a life
change. And you know what? You can make it if you can only trust
your intuition.
Look at your self. When will your reflection
show who you are inside? Simple answer is when you’re able to get
inside your true self and unleash its desire and potential.
Your life coach,
