Succeeding Against Obstacles


Struggling everyday to survive is no easy task. The emotional, physical, psychological side of it is so mentally draining indicating all is bleak. But lo and behold, along the harsh and lonely place a greener land is waiting for everyone who persists despite insufficient fund. Only the courageous and most persistent will succeed. Often times, we need to work a boring, unsatisfying job to support our goal of graduating in College. There is a price we all need to pay to get what we dream of. If one is just so willing to give up the not-so-important matters in life and sacrifice everything to focus on just one big dream the universe will conspire for you to achieve it. Think about Santiago in "The Alchemist".

Resourcefulness, the ability to look for opportunities in all directions to satisfy one's needs must be innate among us. As Intellectual Being having all sets of potential talents and skills we are all qualified to succeed. It may take a lot of effort, so much pain is at stake and risks of uncertainties hound us. Fears and worries are just creation of our dysfunctional brain. Go on and conquer that dream of yours. Make it a reality so that someday you'll wake up living the life you dreamed. Whenever we limit ourselves to a very narrow path, fears began to find its way in our very core. Once we take risks and forget about our limitations, we draw strength and remove those creeping fears clouding our sound judgment.

There is no reason for you to fail. The very fact that you are alive at this very moment is an indication that you are a champion. You made it through all the rough times. Think about all your experiences, the struggles and battles won. Draw strength from your failure that it may inspire you to change for the better. Let not frustrations stop you from dreaming and believing in your greatest potential which has no bounds and ever-existing just like our universe. Utilize your time, energy and talent to help yourself and eventually help others in their daily struggle.

Living Life One Step at a Time

Where there times when you feel like you're not accomplishing something important? As if all the things that you are doing doesn't worked out as plan. Sometimes you wish to become triplet so that you can hit three stones at the same time in different places. But you are also aware that it's just not possible and crazy as it may sound, you are secretly hoping that Science will find a way to triplicate ourselves. In a time when 24-hours is simply not enough, having a clear focus is important. Prioritizing the most significant and urgent things in life is a great skill that must be embedded in our self. Saying NO to the useless, time-consuming activities that are sometimes draining is good for yourself. When the pressure to achieve more to be the best in class, in work, in sports and in so many other areas is pressing, living one life at a time is truly a rewarding  choice. So how are we going to accomplish this. I am suggesting you to use the following strategies: 1. Pr...

Understanding Autonomic Pharmacology: A Short Essay (Part 1 of 2)

by: Archimedes O. Bayquen, RPh, MPH The autonomic nervous system (ANS) has been described many years ago as a division of the peripheral nervous system. It is subdivided into Parasympathetic (Rest and Digest, Conservative and Restorative function) and the Sympathetic (fight, flight, fright, stress response). The Enteric Nervous system is also a division of the ANS consisting of Myenteric or Auerbach plexus and submucous/Meissner’s plexus. The ANS is involuntary, automatic, unconscious response. Think of whenever you breathe and whenever your heart is beating. You don’t utilize your conscious control to initiate and sustain their function as they do their job independently without your control even when you are at sleep.Most of the organs in our body are dually innervated by both branches. Only very few are not—worth mentioning are the sympathetic cholinergic sweat glands in the skin and the blood vessels. Let us very briefly take a look at how these two systems differ. In ter...

Bakit Kailangang Lumaban?

Minsan sa ating buhay, darating tayo sa puntong hindi na natin kaya ang bigat na ating nararamdaman. Sisigaw tayo, iiyak ng taimtim, papatak ang maraming luha, magtatanong kung may nakakaunawa, at maaring mag-iisip na wakasan na ang lahat. Mahirap maging "tao", mahirap ang mga balakid at problema pero sana atin ding maisip na posible itong masolusyonan.  Galing ako sa isang mahirap na pamilya ; walang trabaho ang aking ina at ang ama ko nama'y farmer lamang. Mahirap ang aking naging buhay, hindi naging madali mawalan ng baon para makapasok sa eskwela. Hindi madaling umiyak dahil wala ka ng pamasahe or pambayad ng matrikula. Minsan kong naitanong kung bakit napakatanga ng aking mga magulang, kung bakit wala silang pera at hindi nila kayang maibigay ang aming mga pangangailangan. Nakapagtapos ako sa isang public school ng elementary at sekondarya. Sa katunayan, class salutatorian ako sa Special Science Class ng isang National High School sa amin. Kahit sa sobrang hi...
