How many clients do you have when you started the year? And how many have you gained or lost as of today? I asked this because simply, repeat clients earn you a lot more for your time. Every new client or customer you get comes with an “acquisition cost”, factor in your advertising cost to...
What makes someone successful? One common thing you will see is the willingness to take on greater risks. It’s a major component to achieving the grandest goals in life. You may be surprised too that it can solve 2 kinds of problems. If you find yourself in a situation where you feel like you haven’t...
Our habits are what dreams are made of. Not your affirmations, not your laws of attractions, not your goals, not even your hopes. Habits. Do you have an admiration for someone who has done what you always wanted to do? Go ask them to tell you their good habits, and you will find out how...
Where does work end and your life begin? Since the pandemic hit us all worldwide, many have transformed their homes to their new office. Employees do their projects at home and business owners run their businesses from home now. Doing so leaves us with a problem: We get stuck to never really leaving work, since...
Concentration and extreme focus is one of the biggest secrets to succeeding. Just ask any person of success. It’s the secret in trade, business, war and even in politics. The question is, where do you focus all your concentration to? The answer is to your end goals. When you make a mistake, don’t go chasing...
People always seem to be in a hurry. In a rush to go to the office, the grocery, the mall, the restaurant, to a meeting and everything that requires their presence. What hurrying does to us is that it shows a lack of control over ourselves, and over our time. We need to appear as...

It’s so used widely because delivering it should take you the length of an entire elevator ride. This is the way I’ve pitched first time to everyone to get to that very important sit-down meeting with...
One thing that stands out for me when I help entrepreneurs start their own small business is that their branding and logo don’t exactly meet eye to eye. It’s a common problem. I’ve seen brands that have approached me and my first reaction is a face palm, like, “what were you thinking?”. The thing is,...
I keep talking about how important branding is and here’s what I learned being so brand conscious myself as a kid growing up due to 3 things: 1. Family influence 2. Peer Pressure studying in a private school and 3. Marketing influence (TV, Billboards, Magazine). So many people tend to buy brand names no matter...

We’ve been there before. That jittery unsure feeling of what to say to your boss, those sleepless nights trying to compose that message or short speech on why you should be given a raise that you think that you deserve after serving for a certain period of time. As being both a paid employee and...
I wrote this on my social media account about a year ago and I wanna pounce on this one again through my blog.
