two little words

T

h i n k a m i nut e … A husband and wife had not spoken to each other for days. They were still angry at one another since their last fight. By the 5th day, the husband realized he had a problem. He needed his wife to wake him up early the next day to catch a plane for an important business trip.

But not wanting to talk to her and lose the fight, he put a note on the kitchen table.

It read: “Please wake me up at 5AM tomorrow morning.”

The next morning when the husband woke up, it was 7 o’clock! He was so angry that he had missed his plane, he was just about to yell at his wife for not waking him when he found a note next to his bed. It read: “Wake up! It’s 5 o’clock!”

Why do we find it so hard to say those 2 little words, “I’m sorr y”? If we’re honest, most of us are better at remembering the people who should tell us they’re sorry than we are

at paying our own “sorry” debt. Yet if we would just apologize sooner we could save our friendships, family relationships, as well as a lot of time, energy, even money.

A British study showed that 37% of people who had sued doctors or hospitals in court would not have done it if their doctor had simply apologized to them.

You know, when it comes to taking the blame for something, most people fall into 1 of these 2 groups.

The first group almost never thinks that they caused any of the problem. It’s always someone else’s fault and they should apologize to you. The second group often blame themselves for causing the problem and they apologize quickly. But both extremes of always being a blame taker or a blame shifter are not healthy.

The key in each situation is to be honest.

Then admit that since it hurst/PAGE 6

ay kakilala ba kayo na yumaman at naging mat agump ay p ero saksakan ng yabang? Nagbago ang ugali feeling nila that they are on top of the world at hindi sila nagkakamali? Feeling nila winner sila at losers ang mga iba.

Success may not always be good. Sometimes when some people are already at the peak of their victory, nagbabago ang kanilang pag-uugali; in other words yumabang. Some of them become over confident in the process, they make bad decisions, and burn everything they accomplished and achieved.

May kilala akong magasawa na sumali sa isang networking business, sila ay pinagpala, in a matter of 6 months they made millions. Bumili na agad ng sasakyan at ng condo na hulugan. The y live the lifestyle of the rich, despite my warning na huwag muna because they

planted on the ground no matter what success we may achieve.

NEVER MAKE SOMEONE FEEL LESS OF THEMSELVES In other words, huwag maging mata pobre. Hindi dahil okay ka at yung isa hindi, may karapatan ng tapakan ang ibang tao.

Tandaan natin, na ayaw mo rin sa mga taong minamata ka noong wala ka. So kung ginagawa mo iyan sa iba, wala kang pinagkaiba sa mga taong mayayabang at mata pobre.

BE A GOOD STEWARD Learn how to take good care of what you have.

Pinagpala ka at pinili ka ni Lord para ikaw ay mabiyayan, kung hindi tayo marunong hawakan at ayusin kung ano man ang pinagkatiwala, maniwala ka! Babawiin din yan!

True enough after a year, the company closed and the people behind it run away with all of their money. They can’t hardly make the payment since the source of income was depleted. Ubos na ubos, to the point, wala na silang pambayad ng kuryente.

Hindi lang naputulan, wala na ring pambayad ng monthly ng sasakyan at ng condo. So lahat ng downpayment from car to house gone like the wind.

re you a guide, a commander or a conductor? Are you a leader, who knows how to play the first card in the round?

Are you the fore-most horse in a team?

Do you know how to direct, to persuade or to precede?

I found a very nice quotation shared by Dr. John C. Maxwell, the leading authority on leadership, who s a y s , “A l e a d e r i s one who knows the w ay, go e s t h e w ay and shows the way!”

“Nearly all men can withstand adversity. If you truly want to test a man’s character, give him power”, stressed a lre ady Abra ham Lincoln. Character is what you are doing in the dark. By the way,

nowadays, I wouldn’t only mention “men” alone when it comes to leadership. There are innumerable women holding their own.

Remember and look around: in the past and at present one can observe someone at any corner offering us to lead our way.

Politicians compete for our vote of confidence. Athletes and entertainers show us their pictures of success. A lot of d i f fe re nt re l i g i ou s leaders pledge, promise and bind in flock gathering.

Well, what are some of the traits that a great leader must have or develop character?

Is ch ar a c te r re a l ly enough? How about integrity? Are you,

my d e a r r e a d e r, a leader? Is what you are saying AND D OING, the same?

Are your followers wholeheartedly c onv i n c e d of you r integrity?

Albert Einstein, one of my favourite idols had said, “Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with the important matters!”

Leaders in politics, l e a d e r s i n c l e r g y, leaders in business many are lacking this specific trait, because, after all, what they say is not what they do.

We need leaders with character, integrity, d i s cl ipi n e an d t h e ability to influence others in a positive way. A leader must

be able to motivate his or her people around, rather than manipulate them or run away in times of difficult decisions... !

Albert Einstein claimed that he had no special abilities, only persistence. But that was enough to develop the General Relativity T h e o r y. I l e a r n e d from my Philippine m e n t o r, t h e l a t e Monsignor Professor Dr. Hermogenes E. Bacareza already du r i n g t h e 1 9 8 0 ’s : “ It’s i m p o r t a n t t o become your own best friend. Be your own coach. Take to your inner self as if if you were talking to another person you c are d e e ply ab out .

And, pray!”

Italpinas shares advanced selling techniques to XU BSREM students The 30 pioneering Real Estate Management students of Xavier University opportunely attended the highimpact seminar with distinguished real estate master, Jun Garing, at Primavera Residences last January 28, 2015.

Spurred by the rise in the country’s real estate industry

and the move towards building in alternative locations, Cagayan de Oro has recently seen a rise in the number of real estate developments.

Condominium buildings are one of the most soughtafter developments in the city which make it more attractive to people who have eyes set on property ownership

and investment.

“The rising real estate market in the country paves numerous opportunities for these students to soar high. Especially with their passion to learn and spirit to earn, I know these pioneering hopefuls will bring Cagayan de Oro to the top,” says Edgardo Palasan, XU BSREM

professor.

Master the Art of Selling Condominium The seminar tackled the art of selling condominium units. It focused on dealing with real life successes and failures, rejections and breakthrough transactions, tapping the global market, and real world investment selling.

“With the city’s evident economic growth, CdO has a huge market for these future entrepreneurs and I’m grateful that Italpinas wholeheartedly welcomed these students with the expertise of a highlyrespected veteran real estate trainer, Jun Garing,” says Palasan.

Jun Garing authored the book, The Filipino Art of Breakthrough Selling which talked about the successes of Filipinos in terms of selling

and marketing. He is also the founder and President of Salesman’s Centre, an institute of training and entrepreneurial development.

Currently, he handles sales and training consultancy to business sectors especially in real estate, and manages several entrepreneurial firms.

“I am honored to be one of the fortunate Real Estate Management (BSREM) students of XU who had the chance to witness an inspiring talk by the master in real estate selling. With his expertise, ideas and experiences, I am more than encouraged to pursue a career in this industry. I can definitely see my future prosper here,” Kharl Gapultos, a pioneering REM student, said.

He added, “It is my second time

to visit Primavera Residences and I am always in awe with how the building was able to breakthrough in the business.

With the property’s sustainable features, it is indeed worth the investment.”

Developed by Italpinas Euroasian Design and EcoDevelopment Corporation, Primavera Residences is the premier ecofriendly development in Northern Mindanao. The property is locally and internationally recognized due to its unique highperformance design which allows the building to save as much as 32% in energy costs.

APPLE TREE UNVEILS A REVITALIZED BRAND “CDO’s leading resort hotel becomes better and more luxurious with a rebrand”

Cagayan de Oro’s leading resort, Apple Tree Resort & Hotel, is unveiling a revitalized persona on February 1, 2015 at 6:00 P.M. This comes after a rebranding process undertaken to strengthen Apple Tree’s viability in the tourism industry.

Among the changes

involved is the careful restructuring of the property’s offers – specifically rates and inclusions – to best suit the needs of its target markets in the travel and corporate sectors.

Apple tree has also redefined its values: life, renewal and energy along

with compassion, nurturing and love.

These are brought to the front with new visuals in green and pink, the property’s official colors. In totality, the freshness and healing power of Apple Tree is wellrepresented by a new logo comprised of a healthy,

growing leaf within a circle, the symbol of eternity.

Through the changes, one constant remains: the Apple Tree guarantee of superb service built on genuine and sincere care.

This rebrand comes after seventeen years of operations – ten as Lauremar Beach Resort and seven as Apple Tree. It is most especially an answer to the evolution of the tourism landscape in Cagayan de Oro. “We are rebranding to stay in pace in this highly-competitive service industry.

Expectations are

higher because Cagayan de Oro CAN offer more, and we are up to the challenge,” so states Apple Tree General Manager Bjanesha ManigsacaEmphasis. She concludes, “this is our way of making a mark in the tourism industry and being one with the Department of Tourism, whose goals we support with passion.”

Finally, the new Apple persona sends out an invitation that rings clear with one central message, “It’s time for a fantastic escape.

Discover Apple Tree Resort & Hotel.”

Apple Tree Resort & Hotel is located

in Opol, Misamis Oriental. Within this 7,000 square meter property are 39 luxurious guestrooms and suites, indoor and outdoor function spaces for corporate and social events, indoor and outdoor dining outlets, 2 swimming pools and a private beach, and a host of activities for fun & leisure.
