Expect bad for the outcome to become GOOD.

Joseph Ian P. Manalansan

One day there was a one boy who joined a millionaire’s game in a TV show. His name was Patrick, Patrick came from a middle clan family he’s 21 years old fresh college graduate. 9am in the morning when he was awake from the bed, he turned on the T.V. to watch something and he didn’t expect that there is a one entertainment show is the Millionaires Game Power, at that time he was already thinking to joined until the time was come he decided to go and registered in that game. Patrick was so optimistic person he thinks everything to make it possible to him. After registration Patrick went home and there’s an old man standing on the street and that old man called him “Hey buddy did you joined the game?” “Yes I did why?” he replied “How is it?” “it was good and I think I can make it and I can do it that 1 million price its easy for me to get it” Patrick said with full of confidence. And then the old man laughs and asked “You seemed and so sure about that uh...” Patrick replied “I know I can do it and I’m going to make it.” As the old man speaks his last words Patrick didn’t bother to listen and continue walk away.

Until one day Patrick was being called to the finalist of the game show. It was the last man standing with the 8.5m win, and he was so exited to announce the next question for the 10m prize. But something went go wrong when he answer the final question he didn’t expect that his answer is wrong. Patrick expected a lot, his determination was so full of bliss and that’s how he’s sure in his answer. And the problem is he didn’t think first before answering coz he was so confident that he’ll be able to answer it correctly until the final answer was given and his answer was wrong.

LESSON (TRIVIA)

  1. Don’t take any advantage in one thing.
  2. Do something first, before something’s going to happen.
  3. Don’t expect too much, so that you will be not able to hurt in the end, coz expecting too much that’s not how you get.
  4. You need to listen and learn something first before you expect.

“Expectation, it’s always an expectation no more no less…”

How deep is your faith (Belief) in one thing...?

Joseph Ian P. Manalansan

Alex Miranda is 23 years old and he’s single living in an apartment somewhere in Manila and doesn’t have any priorities in life and any kind of responsibilities accept his family living in province. At the age of 20 he graduated in a university and he finish advertising fine arts, after graduation he rested in 2 months before going to a corporate work, after 1 month he started applying and just a few days he started on a corporate work.

“But why sir??”

“Do whatever it takes! The job that I’m giving it to you it’s not a joke, but let me tell you this don’t think it is hard just take it easily, Alex this is just for you and you’re going to learn a lot and achieve more skills, Alex I’m repeating it to you I know you can do it, and then just do it”

Then Alex grabs the command of his boss.

LESSON! (TRIVIA)

If you were Alex what will you do? Are you just going to:

- Try

- Do your best or

- Whatever it takes

Those 3 words are the types of commitments that we are using in committing people, but what is the best of those words?

  1. If you’re just going to try, you’ll just going to try right? You’ll just know what it is.
  2. Doing your best just the best as you can, but if you fail no more, because what you did is to TRY and do your BEST.
  3. But if you do whatever it takes no matter what happens I can do this, you can do this and you are going to do it and that’s how positive it is, doing whatever it takes it’s a process from being optimist you’re seeing hard things but you’re making it easily. Just like this “Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope or confidence.” -Helen Keller

Somehow why people losses their Job there faith and belief in one thing, whether you fail or not this is only the solution on how to handle it “DO WHATEVER IT TAKES.”

Just like this, if you’re going to court a girl what will you do? How you are going to tell her that you love her and you need her. Are you just going to try? You’re best? Or whatever it takes?? The answer it’s yours, this is how you should treat your faith belief in one thing. Win her.
