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."

Freshly Brewed Coffee
You do not always need a new strategy. Sometimes you just need a good night’s sleep, a clear mind, and the courage to begin again. Exhaustion has a way of making simple things look impossible.

Do Not Be Cynical
Do not be cynical. Denis Waitley said, “Cynicism is the tool of a lazy thinker.” Be skeptical. This can be healthy. It positions you to think and to search for truth. It means you are doing due diligence. But be optimistic and realistic. Why? Because cynicism closes doors. Skepticism opens them. And realistic optimism walks […]

Every post we read, every bit of news we see, can give us more than enough reason to be angry. But don’t let anger become your contribution. Righteous indignation has its place.
