40 TIPS FOR AN EXCEPTIONAL SUPERB AND POWERFUL LIFE

1. Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk, smile. It
is the ultimate anti-depressant.

2. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day. Buy a lock if you have to.

3. Buy a PVR tape your late night shows and get more sleep.

4. When you wake up in the morning complete the following statement,
"My purpose is to ___________ today."

5. Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy.

6. Watch more movies, play more games and read more books than you
did in 2006 (or 2007).

7. Make time to practice meditation, yoga, tai chi, and prayer. They
provide us with daily fuel for our busy lives.

8. Spend more time with people over the age of 70 and under the age of 6.

9. Dream more while you are awake.

10. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food
that is manufactured in plants.

11. Drink green tea and plenty of water. Eat blueberries, wild Alaskan
salmon, broccoli, almonds & walnuts.

12. Try to make at least three people smile each day

13. Clear your clutter from your house, your car, your desk and let
new and flowing energy into your life.

14. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip, energy vampires,
issues of the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control.
Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.

15. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems
are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like
algebra class but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.

16. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a
college kid with a maxed out charge card.

17. Smile and laugh more. It will keep the energy vampires away.

18. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

19. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

20. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

21. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

22. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.

23. Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their
journey is all about.

24. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, and wear the fancy lingerie
(not you guys.) Don't save it for a special occasion.

Today is special.

25. No one is in charge of your happiness except you.

26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words: "In five years,
will this matter?".

27. Forgive everyone for everything.

28. What other people think of you is none of your business.

29. Time heals almost everything. Give time, time.

30. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

31. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends
will. Stay in touch.

32. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.

33. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.

34. The best is yet to come.

35. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

36. Do the right thing!

37. Call your family often.

38. Each night before you go to bed complete the following statements:
"I am thankful for __________." Today I accomplished _________.

39. Remember that you are too blessed to be stressed.

40. Enjoy the ride. Remember that this is not Disney World and you
certainly don't want a fast pass. You only have one ride through life
so make the most of it and enjoy the ride.

Desperate Housewives: Discriminating Filipinos

Desperate Housewives: Discriminating Filipinos - Public Apology Is Not Enough!



I haven’t watched that episode of the infamous series “Desperate Housewives”. But I saw it on the news where Teri Hatcher spoke out her lines “Before you go any further, can I check those diplomas? I would just like to make sure that they’re not from some med school in the Philippines.... “I’m not a medical person but it really hurts when someone is discriminating Filipinos and to be aired ON-AIR, with the whole world watching their show, that’s really something.

The public apology is not enough! How could you bring back the dignity and the integrity of us Filipinos? By that simple apology? Well to tell you, THAT’S NOT ENOUGH! You’re like ruining the whole country! And devastating the lives of all Filipinos all over the world. Before you speak something or make something, be sure you think of it many times.

For the writer and for the ABC network, make ways on how to bring back the Filipino dignity! You’re condemning the Philippines by doing that such thing.

To be honest, most of you are outsourcing us Filipinos for jobs. You outsource call center agents, outsource programmers and other skilled professionals for the job and in fact, you continue doing it! But how could you do something like that!?!

We Filipinos are very proud for who and what we are. And we cannot tolerate things and people who are discriminating our clan! I’m so disappointed on you! And I will never ever watch Desperate Housewives anymore for the rest of my life! You deserve to be banned for what you did!

I know everyone of us commit mistakes, but on your part, you didn’t think before you act!
