You want success? So do I. But do you know your environment has a lot to do with your success? Yes, your achievement is connected with your environment.
If you live in an environment where negativity is the theme, what do you expect you’ll be? If you live in a very happy and worry-free environment, do you think you will learn what sadness is?
It takes courage to spur greater achievements in life and career. If you want to take advantage of it, choose to be in an environment where you can take the most out of your talents and achieve more. Dreaming big is not bad, it’s the giving up that is distressing.
If you are in an unfavorable environment, the more you should connect with people who can motivate and instigate your willingness to get out. Staying strong in spite the odds will make your “getting-out” easier. Change in environment means to start a new life, a new experience of greater success.
By studying the people around you, you will learn success is inevitable. Study those who failed in life and do not follow what they did. In short, learn from their mistakes in order to not repeat history. Get involve and know more of successful people. Have them as your role models to heighten your pursuit of reaching success. But remember, do not “step on others toes” and keep your feet always on the ground.
Wherever you are, you have all the power to change your situation. Remember not to be affected by your bad environment. Never attempt to change it because it’s like you are changing the world which is very impossible. Rather, change yourself, it’s a lot easier, isn’t it.?
Want success? Study your environment and find the key.

Jesus Birthday is not on December 25
The truth about Jesus’ birth day is still a secret up to this time. The truth still puzzled the religious scholars throughout history. Different dates were seen to be the calculated birth dates which were March 28, September 11, and November 18 to name a few.
Why December 25?
Yore, the Catholic Church did not agree to celebrate Jesus birthday on December 25 because it falls on the feast day of Saturn the harvest god : Saturnalia Festival. Leo 1 the Great AD440-461 even threatened the faithful to not follow this. Until the fifth century, in its effort to convert the masses and to gain more followers, the Catholic Church made it believable to celebrate the 25th of December as the birthday of Jesus Christ. Several Pagan beliefs like the one being celebrated between December 17 and 23 were contained. The integration of Saturnalia festival being the most popular Roman festival held in mid-December to honor the god Saturn was celebrated with feasting, gift-giving, slaves were treated as equals, permitted to wear their masters’ clothing, and eat with their masters.
To demonstrate the truth about the integration of Christmas day and the Saturnalia festival, check the original composition of the Christmas song Hark! The Herald Angels Sing. Notice the line which says “Hail the Sun of righteousness! / Light and life to all he brings.” This song was composed by Charles Wesley in 1739 but was changed by George Whitefield in 1753 to “Hail the Son of Righteousness!” and Whitefield also changed the original “Hark how all the welkin rings” to “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing.”
Saturnalia was the original Christmas and the Romans invented everything.
In spite this truth, I loved Christmas and will continue its tradition no matter what.

Eyebrows “raising”? Don’t waste that muscle. Please read first!
Election is just around the corner. Only in the Philippines where 99 hopefuls are vying for the highest post:: the President of the Philippines. Glad I did not finalize my intention and if ever I will: sorry Me, it’s too late: candidacy filing ends last November 31, 2009 (wheeew! glad there’s no extension!)
Thinking twice before leaping? Yes, because if the following reasons are check with YES, then I will run.
The Checklist:
1. Increase the salary of the President!
I still can’t believe that the salary of the president and the rest of the high ranking public officials like the VP, senators, congressmen, etc.: is considered to be a joke: an annual salary of P300,000.00 for the president of the republic of the Philippines. What the f___??? For me, this is one of the many reasons why corruption is but natural in this highly religious country. Imagine spending a billion pesos during the campaign period for this few hundred thousand pesos monthly salary? I’m still sane that’s why I’d rather apply as a president of a multi-national private Company because my salary is more than this plus free car and more benefits.
2. A brand new set of COMELEC officials with matching automated election process!
Unless otherwise there is a new set of COMELEC personnel, running for president is a no-no to me. Manual election process is loved by the “trapos” (traditional politicians), and I hate it.
3. Strict penalty for corrupt officials up to their last kin!
An everyday affair in the Philippines: corruption. Name it, you will feel it from the lowest position of Barangay captain up to the highest leader of the Country: the President. It’s a natural process. The best penalty is Death or skinning then rolled in a bed of salt…and yes, organic salt (it’s healthy!)
I still have so many additions to this list but the above three are the most important. I will not run for president if the above are not yet implemented.
