@davidbonifacio By that definition, you should be very impactful David. :)

[Banjo Castillo @BanjoCastillo]

@davidbonifacio I’m happy you took it the right way @davidbonifacio

[Banjo Castillo @BanjoCastillo]

@davidbonifacio @SalomonRunning @wahoofitness @Strava Congrats bud!

God’s didn’t design His economy like a buffet where you can only partake if you have the means to pay. He designed it like a potluck where everyone brings whatever they can, everyone shares without compulsion, and everyone goes home filled and satisfied.

Tackling the most critical and urgent issues is guaranteed not to be easy. However, it doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t tackle them. Here are my thoughts on why investing resources on solving the most critical issues is important…even when it’s hard.

As leaders of any realm, we must remember that we are called to lead, not to rule. There is only one true King. Bearing that in mind, we will be able to keep our minds clear, our hearts pure, and our direction straight.

@iamericwong Agree as well to be wary of self-professed experts. In my experience, most battle-scarred real experts are quite humble and fully recognize their fallibility. Nonetheless they are quite happy to share whatever they know.

[Banjo Castillo @BanjoCastillo]

@iamericwong Glad you’re able to benefit from my battle scars Eric.

[Banjo Castillo @BanjoCastillo]

@davidbonifacio @iamJohnMolo @iamericwong Really?

[Banjo Castillo @BanjoCastillo]

Don’t seek to prove yourself. Instead, seek to improve yourself.

@davidbonifacio and social media apps… and ride sharing apps

During this time of pandemic when we are all reminded that health truly is wealth, it’s good to be part of a company that has been consistently delivering its promise for the last 170 years. #HonestyisRefreshing

[Banjo Castillo @BanjoCastillo]

Consistency breeds trust. In this picture are two Dole ads that are decades apart. If what you’re offering is all-natural and good for people’s health —- there is no reason to hide it.

[Banjo Castillo @BanjoCastillo]

@davidbonifacio Amazing to see how many investors are putting their money where their mouth is when it comes to helping Filipinos tackle big and urgent social issues!

[Banjo Castillo @BanjoCastillo]

@davidbonifacio As such, you need to approach leadership with utmost humility and and infinite need to learn from your experiences and from others.

[Banjo Castillo @BanjoCastillo]

@davidbonifacio As you lead more people and organisations with increasing complexity, you realise that there is one thing that you only truly know 100% —- that you don’t know everything.

[Banjo Castillo @BanjoCastillo]

No wonder 85% of employees globally today are not engaged with their work.

[Banjo Castillo @BanjoCastillo]

Read this today in a book - “ We control most of the decisions of most of our employees because we’re worried about what might go wrong if we don’t. We’re designing our organisations for our worst people, then we’re shocked when our best people don’t thrive in them.”

[Banjo Castillo @BanjoCastillo]

@iamericwong Also grateful and excited to be working with you and the Workbase team in taking a shot at providing more jobs to Filipinos!

[Banjo Castillo @BanjoCastillo]

@davidbonifacio @iamericwong @iamJohnMolo If those of us who are blessed with the opportunity, capability, and resources to do something give up and don’t take a shot —- it’s like waving a white flag
