Songs of my Heart Album: Dreams do come true
Seeing this video, it’s an indescribable feeling! Let me write this down before I cry (tears of joy, actually).

Back to writing motivational articles
It’s been a while since I last wrote a motivational article for this website. There are several reasons. The most outstanding “excuse” maybe is because I got so occupied with left and right invitations. I felt I had to attend to as many invitations as I can. No, not because I need the money to…

Faculty, professors, instructors, janitors, dear students: Good morning. Thank you for inviting me to speak. I didn’t ask to be here but your (who invited you) forced me to…
Motivational Speaker for Sales People in the Insurance Industry
When Michael Jordan tried out in their high school basketball team, he was rejected by the coach saying he’s too small for the game. If we don’t love our work, it’s easy to complain and be cynical about things. If we love what we do, it may be difficult but we can find joy in…
