You are GREAT, wherever you go!

Last Wednesday, I was watching PBA (of course together with Sweets).  I saw that Paul Lee was playing and I can't help but say that he is indeed one of the best players out there.  With that I said:

KL: Ang galing talaga ni Paul Lee noh!

Noel: Uu

KL: San nga siyang team dati?

Noel: Rain or Shine

KL: Ah tapos now STAR na siya

Noel: Continued to drive..

Then I said:

KL: Kahit san ka man naroon, kung magaling ka, magaling ka! Noh!!

Sweets continued to drive and I can't decipher whether I am making any sense to him or he does not want to hear more about what I was trying to say!

To him, it was plain and simple a Basketball game -- and he is not even STAR nor Rain or Shine!  You should know by now that we are solid San Miguel Beermen.

My point is: We all have our starting point -- our basic education.

Then we are slowly molded to greatness by the organizations where we are.

Now, if we really have the capability and willingness to learn, deliver and perform at our best then we can be an expert in whatever it is that we are doing.  No matter where we are!

This is how I connected Paul Lee to what I am feeling right now.

Recently, Kat moved on to a new organization, I felt bad because I will miss how she handled me and my team and how grateful I am for the leadership and wisdom.  Kat is a great lead and I know she can share more to us -- had she stayed.  When Kat left, does it mean that she will no longer be a great lead and employee? Big answer is NO!  Because Kat is a great lead and employee with good work ethics and so I KNOW what wherever she may be -- in Accenture (much better) or in another organization -- she will definitely do well!

Same thing with my new lead, Mai.  She is a tenured lead and have been with Accenture for the longest time -- this is her new team but because I believe that she is a great employee, mentor, lead and colleague, even if this is a new team for her -- she will definitely do what she does BEST, which is to continue to LEARN (she is from Learning by the way :p), to DELIVER and to PERFORM!

To these two ladies! You both ROCK!

Do not be afraid to soar HIGH because you have a TEAM to support you all the way!

Featuring Mr and Mrs Spice!

 They say that the best way to start a relationship is look for someone who shares the same interest, someone who mirrors you in terms of what you like and does not like -- i cannot agree more BUT this is not the end of the equation!

I was in our kitchen and saw our spice bottles.. I called them Mr and Mrs Spice -- they are a couple but they have their own names. Mr Salty Spice and Mrs Pepper Spice.  What I am driving at is that both of them have their own qualities but they blend well together!

Like in a real couple, like me and my husband -- we have our unique selves, we are SMEs in our own fields but we blend well together.  They say we complement --  .  There are situations that we have consensus because we know that we will both benefit in our informed decision.  There's give and take because we do not want to take each other for granted.

We bring the best out of each other because we are not up for competition and we want to grow together as a couple and as an individual.



I am not saying that we are perfect but I know we are doing our best to grow our imperfect and crazy relationship!  We are an ordinary couple who shares struggles and laugh at simple things!


What's important is that we stick together!

If you are in search of your Mr Salty or Ms Pepper -- i would suggest to do self check and know yourselves more before sharing your gift to another!
