Helpful Tips To Achieve your 2017 Resolutions


2017 has started with its first few days. By now, most people have already thought about their new year's resolutions - a list of goals to achieve by the end of the year. This habit has been a tradition, really. Everyone has their own personal goals and they do what they can for it to be a success. However, some people seldom complete their list and most often than not repeating the same resolution for years.

This post is for people who can relate. Although, take note that there is really no right way to achieve your resolutions since situations are different. Hopefully, this post will serve as your guide in having the best year to complete your goals!

Here is a list of carefully thought tips based on my personal experience:


1. Jot your mind down. Write everything that comes to your mind when you think about your goals. Let it out, no holds barreled thoughts. Do not reword or rephrase anything, jot it dow word per word because once you think about how to write it like the ones you do on essays, you might forget important points.


2. Rate it. Just like everything else, you need to learn how to prioritize meaning putting the important ones first. I'm sure most of us have tons of goals we want to achieve. However, having so much on the list can hinder you from completing everything in one year.


3. Rephrase the Top 5. Now from your draft, choose the top 3-5. (Your number depends on the confidence that you will complete it for a year) Then, reword it nicely. The ones that will really make you motivated. Like for example, instead of writing - lose weight, try to go for "Yay for Sexy Bod!".


4. Game Plan is Everything.  You have a goal but do you have a plan? Without this, it'll be hard for you to attain your goal. Thus, below your goals write how you'll do it. It can be short and simple, it depends on you, really.

5. Execute and Enjoy! Be sure to follow your plan. If you fail, don't be afraid to try again. After all, you have 365 days to be successful. Among everything else, enjoy and have fun!

I hope this short article help you in achieving your goals this year! I'm feeling that this will be your year. May 2017 be filled with countless opportunities and joys. Happy New Year!

6 Ways To A Goodmorning!


Hearing the sweet melody of the birds, she gracefully woke up in the beautiful morning. Seeing the sun streaks passing through the window, she smiled knowing it would be a great day ahead. 

The scenario I painted is a very common notion of a "Goodmorning". This is also a popular scene in Disney princess movies. However, it doesn't mean it really happens in real life. This is just one of those expectations versus reality kind of thing. SAD BUT TRUE. 

That doesn't mean one can't have this "goodmorning" scene in their lives. Although, no one can't really copy this point blank, unless you already have? Anyway, waking up grouchy and sleepy every morning can be tiresome. So here are my suggestions on how you can be motivated and happy to be up early every single day!

Don't Be An Owl. 
In other words, sleep early. Yes, this is a very repetitive and common advice ya-da ya-da. But you see, sleeping late and waking up early in the morning will just tire you throughout the day due to the fact that you lack sleep. Ever wondered why you get sleepy in the middle of the day, this is the reason why. Plus, if you have a wonderful dream, it can get cut in the middle which will be frustrating. Just kidding, but that happens too. 

Have That Peaceful Alarm. 
Ahh, the most irritating blunder in our wonderful wonderful sleep. Don't you just hate being woken up by a shrill noise? That ringing sound is the worst LSS ever. But, the problem is some people can't live without an alarm or they won't wake up in time. Thus, don't trash it completely. Do have an alarm that has a calm and serene sound so as you can wake up not being jolted by a ringing sound. If you have a problem with soft alarms, add a flair then set it with your favorite song. Why not sing your heart out waking up, right?

Eat Your Eggs. 
Well, not just eggs. HAHA. You can prepare any breakfast of your choice as long as it is enough to give you tons of energy. DO NOT eat a small amount of food here, it is a necessity (atleast for me) to munch a lot. Besides, you'll burn it anyway. (If you're not sedentary all day). If you're having a problem in finding what to eat, search for healthy breakfast recipes and follow those.

Wear Your Confi-Dress. 
Apologies for the bad title. lol. Be the fashion guru of your life. Wear something that you'll be comfortable and confident in. Find clothes that are appropriately you. If you're not comfortable with the trend, the don't follow it because chances are if you fit into what you don't like, it will just ruin your day. 

Say Yes To Management.
Before being bombarded with the tasks you need to do (believe me this can dampen your positive morning), jot down all of it in a paper or your phone. As such, you will not be rushed and buried in worry and deadlines. Plus, you can enjoy your morning leisurely without any concern about your time. 

Plus for Positive Thoughts. 
There are times that people focus on negativity. Thinking about doubts, worse expectations and failures are just the common lingering concerns. However, all of these are wrong. If a bad experience has already happened, do not put your attention in it. Get through by changing your future and making it a life lesson. Thus, last but not the least, it is important to spend your mornings thinking of positive thoughts. This will slay all your pessimistic views.

Treasure all these steps and I hope you all have a goodmorning! 

How I Make My Worklife Easier



Hello Hello! I'm sure that everyone of us have encountered a moment/s where in our workload seems so high that you sometimes compare it to Mount Everest. (HAHA, just kidding) I hope you guys know what I mean.

FRET NOT, 

all of us can relate! From students to workers, we know what it feels to skip meals and fun just to finish our work before THE deadline. This sounds like an inevitable hardship we face once in a while. HOWEVER, I will share my tips on how to lessen the BIG BIG burden of this situation which I learned through experience as a student and an intern.

Here we go!

Tip #1

 GOODMORNING FERN-C!

If you don't know or haven't heard of Fern-C, let me just introduce it to you. So basically, it is (and I quote from their website which you can visit here) "the first non-acidic vitamin c in the Philippines and the only quali-c vitamin c from Europe". So what does it do? It acts as a shield against infections that you may encounter everyday. Like the pollution we, commuters, face everytime we ride the jeep or wait for buses that will take us to where we are going. That's the main reason why I take this every morning. BUT, I recently saw in their website that they do so much more than that. According to their website, and I quote, Fern-C not only hastens wound healing but also encourages healthy gums, teeth and bones. After all, Fern-C ay "Subok Na"!

COOL, right?

Again, let me just note how important this is in your everyday lives. When it rains, I usually catch colds since I think I have a weak immunity whenever it's cold. This, in turn, lessens my energy by a large percentage, which causes my work etiquette to suffer. Moreover, this is even a must for me whenever I have that seemingly unbearable workload to finish. Because in times like this, I usually skip sleeping early and drinking lots of coffee to remain awake. This destroys my health which also lessens my energy.

 Thus, for 110% energy everyday, you need to be secured against obstacles which can hinder your success. 

This shows that "Worklife Ay Easy With Fern-C".

 Tip #2

 SMILE YOUR DAY AWAY

  I saw this quote some time ago at www.scrapbook.com and it goes like this

"Smile, because every 60 seconds is a minute of happiness that you'll never get back."

This actually doesn't make sense at first glance BUT I encourage you to keep up with me because this really helps. For me, a smile is a big step towards happiness. And this happiness will eventually encourage you to give everything you have with what you're doing. Which in turn, makes you produce GREAT works! Just think about it, if you're lonely or sad, the burden of your workload will demoralize you bit by bit. SO TAKE MY ADVICE AND START SMILING! You'll also be spreading the love with others too!

Tip #3

 DRESS APPROPRIATELY BUT COMFORTABLY

OOTD is only great if you are comfortable and appropriately dressed. 

 I've seen a couple of people who are so conscious of what they wear that they can't focus on what they're doing. As such, my tip is for you guys is to wear whatever you're comfortable with. BUT, you should also follow the dress rules for your work or school. For example, high school students may not relate to dressing up every day because they have uniforms. However, this tip can also be applied to what shoes they're wearing. Are you more comfortable with 1-2 inches heels or just flats? Another example would be business attires for work. For me, I'm more comfortable wearing slacks than skirt for business attires since I commute. If they're both eligible for your work then choose the clothing that will not be a disadvantage to what you do. In this way, you are more focused on your tasks. Also, things like clothing will not be a hindrance to the success of your work.

Tip #4

 MUSIC IS YOUR GUARDIAN ANGEL

The power of music amazes me every single time. It actually relates and guides you in everything you do. 

Whether we're in the gym or just chilling out, music makes us feel focused in whatever we're doing. Thus, this is my tip #3! Whenever you're doing your work, make sure to listen to songs that make you concentrate in what you're doing. This will help you to finish you're work quicker than normal. Because usually we get distracted easily which in turn makes us cram our works just a minute before the deadline. Thus, making it HARDER. For me, I listen to a Spotify playlist which is "Your Favorite Coffeehouse". It has mellow songs which aren't too slow that it makes you want to snooze. It has that kind of theme were in it plays songs that makes you focus on your work. However, the songs you play really depends on what genre will help you concentrate on what you're doing  and stop you from being distracted to the current events on your social media apps. ( HA HA a problem I've encountered so many times).

Tip #5

 SNACK IT UP

An empty stomach is a NO-NO SITUATION if you have a lot of things to do. I know there are times that you're so busy you don't even have time to drink water. This is really bad because what this do is it diminishes our energy to do what we have to do. AND successful works take up great mental prowess and effort. So! DO NOT brush off snacks because it's a MUST. What I usually do is I buy finger foods like peanuts, chips (not so healthy I know) or sandwiches so I eat while working. It actually saves a lot of time than eating rice for about 15 minutes.

AS SUCH, we should always remember that we can spare five minutes to avoid jeopardizing a future amazing work!

Tip #6

 TAKE A ZEN BREAK EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE

 The last and final tip that I'm going to give you guys is in relation with the last tip in terms of taking a time off from work.

I encourage you to take a break once in a while to breathe out from information overload to gather your thoughts. 

What I mean about a break is not sleeping or logging in to your social networks because these will just make you lazy to return back to your work. What I suggest, however, is walk for 2-3 minutes every one hour. This is to gather your thoughts to line up every single data that you are going to add to your work. This is a plus for me because I get to think without the glare of the computer screen or book.


THAT'S IT! I hope my tips help you guys as much as it helped me throughout the years. Don't be shy to comment your thoughts about my post below!
