3. I don’t have anything special to look up to. I can’t inspire other people since I
don’t have any heart-touching stories of my life. I just wanted to live to the fullest and
share my knowledge to those in need.
To have a successful career both in the corporate world and in my business. To
finish my MBA degree, and pursue my doctorate studies. To be a licensed real estate
appraiser, and a part-time professor. To be a caring and supportive father to my child,
and a loving husband to my wife-to-be. And to have a stress and worry-free life after my
career. Every success I will achieve would be dedicated to my ever supportive parents,
and to everyone I met along the way to success. And in everything I do, I always believe
that God Almighty is with me.
All of these will be cooked accordingly and properly, according to the recipes
of success. I may be an O.C., yet I won’t be OverConfident not to OverCook my dish.

4. INGREDIENTS FOR SUCCESS
Your dish may get overcooked, uncooked, too salty, or too sweet; yet keep on trying until you get it right or
the “tamang timpla”. Remember, NEVER EVER GIVE UP. You won’t succeed unless you have failed, you won’t
fail either unless you have tried. There may be a thousand reasons to quit, but you only need one reason to
go on.

5. INGREDIENTS FOR SUCCESS
Stay focused. You’ll get burns, cuts, or cry over chopping an onion; but “never lose sight of your goal”. Keep
your heart and mind glued to it. Why persevere if you’re not determined?

6. INGREDIENTS FOR SUCCESS
Explore limits, then exceed it. Any success won’t be sweeter without hard work. It is self-fulfillment seeing
your hard work bear the fruits of its labor, isn’t it?

7. INGREDIENTS FOR SUCCESS
HAVE FUN! Take your goals seriously, but also take a break from time to time. Blow away stress, get
refreshed, a start anew. Also, have fun on what you do. If you’re happy with it, success would likely to follow.

8. INGREDIENTS FOR SUCCESS
STAY FIT! A healthy mind needs a healthy body. Get into sports or any other activities that would make you
sweat.

9. INGREDIENTS FOR SUCCESS
VALUE FAMILY TIES. No one inspires us much as our family. Share your success and failures with them.

14. Daily Diet
The mentioned ingredients and recipe will always be included in my
cooking and my daily diet. These will be mixed with the guidance and wisdom
provided by God Almighty, to be a successful individual and a devoted Catholic.
The proper amount of ingredients depends on me, as the cook of my success.
I must be able to properly combine and balance the ingredients to cook the
perfect dish. I will not be afraid to fail as God Almighty, my family and my
friends will always be behind me.
Being an O.C. will keep me on trying and improving. For an O.C.,
enough will never be enough. We don’t strive on being the BEST, but to always
be BETTER. For us O.C.’s, “hindi puwede ang puwede na.”
