Leadership That Matters
₱ 350.00
"And as a professional speaker and trainer, I carry the awesome responsibility of sharing critical ideas that are both relevant and effective in equipping leaders with the knowledge to do better and become better."
Only The Real Matters
₱ 300.00
"Here are stories of loyalty. Stories of friendship. Stories of persistence. Stories of attempts and endeavors, failure and success. Real stories of real people--their businesses, their treasures, their wealth, their heroes. People who, after putting a lid on their careers in order to define who they are, have discovered a deeper meaning to their lifework--work that has been transformed from an obsessive bondage to a source of tremendous fulfillment and joy."
Three Little Words
₱ 350.00
"Allow me to use the fascinating world and words of the English language in bringing you effective principles for work, business and living. For purposes of easy recall each principle will be presented with the titles of three words."
Being The Best
₱ 300.00
"This book is an easy read but a lot of hard work. Being the Best You Can Ever Be could be read through in one sitting, but to succeed in life and be the best you can ever be will require a predetermined will and a lot of back-breaking work."
DUH
₱ 400.00
"This is a book that deals with "DUHism's of Life." I shall assign a meaning to the word duh by using the following acronym:
Developing Unhealthy Habits
Early Bird
₱ 300.00
"The early bird gets the worm..." but has it ever occurred to you that the early worm gets eaten. In line with this thinking, being the first may not necessarily be good, because the first mouse gets trapped, but the second one gets the cheese. What I'm trying to say is that life is a matter of perspective. It's not what happens to you; it's how you look at it and how you take it."
All that Matters
₱ 350.00
"There are many things that matter--the big things as well as the small things. But what matters most should matter now, and the big things we dream about would one day happen, but only when we sweat the small things and improve on it now."
52 Week Journal
₱ 450.00
"52 weeks of lesson reminders, stories, and personal reflections that we hope will help you write down the start of your milestones for your leadership process."

Reliable People
Reliable people do more than keep their word. They make life easier for everyone around them. When you know someone will deliver, you do not have to chase, remind, follow up, prepare a backup plan, or quietly wonder if everything is about to unravel. Reliability creates peace. It says, “You can stop worrying. I’ve got […]

Until You Get It Right
You don’t have to get it right the first time. Most people don’t. But you do have to keep going until you get it right. If the first setback makes you quit, it’s GAME OVER before the real game begins. Business and every great endeavor require this mindset: learn, adjust, improve, repeat.#Passion#Purpose#Productivity

Do It Anyway
Do nothing, you’ll be criticized. Do something, you’ll be criticized. Since the criticism comes regardless, choose what’s worth it. No version of you will get everyone’s approval. So stop asking “How do I avoid criticism?” and start asking “What matters enough to be criticized for?” Then commit to that. #Passion#Purpose#Productivity

Receiving Feedback
Talent can get you noticed. But your ability to receive feedback will often determine how far you eventually go. A talented person who resists correction eventually plateaus. A teachable person keeps improving. Feedback is not always pleasant, especially when it touches the ego. But growth rarely asks permission before making us uncomfortable. The people who […]

Meaningful Work Done
People who get an unusual amount of meaningful work done are often ruthless about cutting what others simply tolerate. Unnecessary meetings. Pointless drama. Endless notifications. Low-value commitments. Mental clutter. Emotional leakage. Guarding your time is not rude. It is responsible. Letting a meeting drag on may feel gracious in the moment, but it can be […]
