Good Plan = Great Success: Planning Technical Activities

For a plain and simple language, planning is thinking ahead. Planning is a tool not only for organization but also for every individual to know what to do, how to do it, when to do it and what to expect in the future. A plan serves as a useful guide in the implementation of every activity. The nature of planning  is to have a plan that provides a methodical way of achieving desired results. Without the plan, some minor tasks may be afforded major attention that may, hinder the accomplishment of objectives. Planning defined by Nickels and others: refers to “the management function that involves anticipating future trends and determining the best strategies and tactics to achieve organizational objectives.” For Aldag and Stearns, planning is the “the selection and sequential ordering of tasks required to achieve an organizational goal.” Cole and Hamilton gave a definition of planning as “deciding what will be done, who will do it, where, when and how it will be done, and the standards to which it will be done.”  To give you another idea of what is planning, you may watch this video.

30 Life Lessons on Treating Others

30 Life Lessons on Treating Others
 

1. Rebuild your self-esteem through friendship.

Negative criticisms do add insult to our insecurities and tear down our sense of self-worth. A blast of destructive criticisms leaves us bruised and troubled and makes us feel unwanted. But true and loving friendship does rebuild one’s self-esteem.
 

2. Never lose faith in humanity

Have faith in the Creator and the humanity He created. Indeed, some people had chosen to become evil, contrary to what God wants. But humanity is “like an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become (necessarily) dirty” (Mahatma Gandhi).
 

3. Remember that the other is a mystery

Never think that you already really know someone completely. Do not make assumptions. Don’t presuppose either that somebody totally knows you—your thoughts, opinions, and conditions.
 

4. Share your blessings

Finding a way to give back is satisfying. When a person becomes happy because of our selfless acts, we feel a sense of fulfillment. Sharing your blessings is never meaningless.

Jose Rizal and Emilio Aguinaldo Connection

[Editor's update: April 2020]
 

EMILIO AGUINALDO Y FAMY is the officially recognized Philippines’ first president. He was the youngest to have become the country's highest official (at age 29) and the Filipino president to have outlived the most number of his successors.

Born on March 22, 1869, Aguinaldo was eight-year younger than Jose Rizal. Emilio was the seventh of the eight children of a rich and well known Chinese mestizo couple, Carlos Aguinaldo and Trinidad Famy, in Cavite Viejo (present-day Kawit), Cavite. His father was once appointed as the town’s ‘gobernadorcillo’ (municipal governor).

When Emilio was 17 years old, he became the ‘Cabeza de Barangay’ of Binakayan’, a main barrio of their town. In 1895, he became Cavite Viejo’s ‘capitan municipal’ at the age of 26.

[Editor's update: April 2020]

BORN ON November 30, 1863, Andres Bonifacio y de Castro, founder and later the ‘Supremo’ (supreme leader) of the Katipunan, was two-year younger than Jose Rizal.

Bonifacio was the eldest of five children of Santiago Bonifacio, a tailor who served as a teniente mayor of Tondo, Manila, and Catalina de Castro, a mestiza born of a Spanish father and a Filipino-Chinese mother. When his parents died of sickness, Andres stopped attending school to support his siblings. He made and sold canes and paper fans, crafted posters for commercial firms, worked in the British trading firm ‘Fleming and Company’, later transferred as storehouse worker to the German trading firm ‘Fressell and Company’, and even moonlighted as an actor in moro-moro plays.

Embrace Rizalism As a Way of Life

“Viva España! Viva España! Viva España! Muerte a los Traidores!”
 
These were the irritating shouts and abominable invectives by the Spanish spectators on the 30th of December 1896 as one lifeless body fell on the ground, after his public execution by musketry at Bagumbayan. 
 
“... I have always loved our poor country and I am sure that I shall love it until my last moment, in case men betray me. My career, my life my happiness all I have sacrificed for love of country. Whatever happens, I shall die blessing it and hoping for the day of its freedom.”

1. The Income and Family Size
“Buy according to what you need not according to what you want”. This saying is applicable to the attitudes of many families. Sometimes, we keep on dreaming a house that is not really appropriate to our family income. We don’t need to dream of building a house that is like a palace, especially if we only have a small family size, for it would be like wearing an extra-large size of dress when the size of our body is only small.
