Only The Real Matters

"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.

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.

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 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."
