Gaga. Kahit si Miranda Priestley hindi ganiyan mag-interview.
Napakagago. Even medical residency programs don’t do this to their applicants.
This is why a lot of Filipinos would rather work for Westerners or work overseas. The kagaguhan and kapakshetan is strong here. (1/2)
But the thing is, he is the 4th SP of the 20th Congress - and wala pang isang taon yan (considering June 30 start of term, then SONA 2025 yung first session)
Gatchalian is the 4th Senate President of the 20th Congress in less than a year. Before this, the 10th and 11th Congresses also had 4 SPs over their terms. In the 10th Congress, Sen. Gonzales became SP twice
if you are struggling to find your gift in life as a young person, walk through this piece.
& pay solid attention;
i have a working theory and this is it: i don't think your gift is hidden from you, i believe you can't find it cos you've seen it every day of your life. it is called the curse of familiarity. listen to me. familiarity doesn't only breed contempt; it also causes blindness.
i'll tell you something fascinating about your brain. do you know that right now your nose is in your field of vision? you can see it. you've always been able to see it but your brain quietly edits it out cos it is familiar and i believe many people suffer from the same problem when it comes to their gift.
the things that make us remarkable often feel ordinary to us cos we've lived with them for so long.
we assume they can't be valuable cos they don't feel rare anymore. look, familiarity has a tendency to hide significance. we get so busy searching for our future that we overlook the evidence we've been carrying all along.
the first person to undervalue your gift is usually you. yes, you and while everybody else experiences your gift as a miracle, you're busy experiencing it as muscle memory.
i've been there and it has happened to me many times. people will call it exceptional and you'll call it normal. the things that come naturally to you may be the very things that have been supernaturally assigned to you & that which you cannot acknowledge, you cannot maximize. i will always tell the younger generation the truth.
in this short life, during your hard times and good times, pay close attention to patterns and to what has followed you through all those seasons. pay attention to what people consistently come to you for. what is that thing that has become invisible through familiarity?
there is a difference btwn when something is hidden from your sight and when something is hidden by your sight, buena suerte 👍
I experienced this in Cebu ten years ago, as a volunteer for the International Eucharistic Congress. Like, tanungin mo lang yung pari kung pwede sya mag-hear ng confessions, papayag sila.
I received absolution near a tree and a street light 😅
@ohlistic He also has been sick for some time (in and out sa ICU I believe) so I guess that’s one of the reasons, too. Quite surprised na it took this long to submit his resignation.
