Like every precious personal computer system we had for the very first time, the stored components and hardware on it are becoming outdated as technology discover more systems upgrades and applications for more friendly interface and zoom speed.

Every professionals, skilled persons, athletes and mothers needs to upgrade what knowledge they stored for years, it is not about how many diplomas you gained or displayed in your living room but the ability that you will earn and utilize to be more competitive in this COMPUTER ERA iT is all about becoming MORE PRODUCTIVE online…

Simple realization of the informative data my friend allain send to me about 20 richest person in the world, surprisingly out of 20 billionaires of
the world, 4 comes from India, a country known before as land of slaves but now, they are known as IT BPO outsourcing country..wherein they are not fluent as we are in terms of English proficiency but why does they hold the title as number one provider
with BPO (Business Processing Outsourcing) needs? simply because they UPGRADE not only with hardwares and applications but also with
MENTALITY TOWARDS WORK and that is the very big difference to us pinoy…

When a friend asked me what did you do for a living now? are you still working in Bureau of Customs? did you finished law school? are you a
med trans now? I simply said I am a home base offshore contractor? what’s that??(with one eyebrow up as a sign of disbelief) taking up
various crash courses related to computer and not practicing my degree course is something I learn to love, I took up crash course in
computer technician and currently pursuing master’s degree in business operations aside from that I want to enrich my skills in website
design.. it is where green bucks is lol!!)..this is god wanted me to do..sometimes what we wanted is not what’s mean for us..I really wanted
to become a lawyer to help oppressed and poor families but it is not what the road is taking me, but still I was able to help a team of 10 to 12 team members and I am happy helping others in my own little way.

I learn the language of upgrading..simply because I was inspired of discovering more things beyond what I know, we should set aside the
mentality of “alam ko na yan”, magaling na ako dyan” as one of my favorite preacher Bo Sanchez says “Learn new things, be hungry for new
knowledge” in doing so we will learn a lot and use it to our advantages.

Always have a passion to use technology and internet on a profitable way not merely in socializing but more on DISCOVERING NEW THINGS and fortunately earns from it..
Don’t stick to stereotype work you knew for years, research, read.. and read a lot!!! You never know how it works when you will never try to do it, don’t be afraid to invest time, effort and a little investment of adding reading materials on your grocery lists or enrolled in a short term crash course of things you want.. you never know that will be of extra income someday..

As human we have the capacity to learn many things, do many things, don’t limit yourself with one specialization..try to do one thing at a time
and you will be surprised of the results..as the computer intelligent enough to perform many tasks how much more thE HUMAN who operates it..

Remember bill gates said in the future there will be two types of individual one is that who earns through the use of internet and the other one is the one who is facing bankruptcy because he does not know how to use the internet…

hOPE you enjoy reading!! godbless!

wish i can dance with my father again…this song really made me cry a river..I miss the man who mold me to be a tough woman today.., the man I consider the best in the field of sales, marketing and customer service in the whole wide world. Even I, can’t compete to that, it was the skills i wish i had.

From a family of farmers in mambusao, my papa dreams of becoming a well known businessman that’s why he went to manila and worked as a helper in the house of judge LOJA when speaker villareal the famous speaker of the house during marcos regime see his potential being good in some matters he was endorsed in a relative in 15th ave in murphy cubao and that started his luck and find his mine of gold in goat business wayback early of 70′ and eventually made himself a owner of a commercial property along quezon avenue a very nice location where passerby are endless.

The same commercial area served as my playground during my childhood years, and my playmates are the helpers in our kambingan, my room is adjuscent to the goat fence. I easily recognize when one of the female goat gave birth, and the cries of the dying goat seems normal to me. I even helped killed some goats during holiday season specially in the the eve of the dec 24 where we sell more than 100 goats.

He was well known in our province as one of the big time in goat business during those era and even a recipient of a prestigious award from the the circulo de mambuseonos for being one of the outstanding businessman. My papa truly made a name in his choosen field (he never had a formal education yet that was never a hindrace to him, he even calculates faster than i do thats why he sells a real pro and I on the other hand still learning the art of profitable business).

He molded some young men and helped them in some other way to know the potential of goat business and some of them now are still booming in that field. HE made his own LEGACY that I dream one day I will continue it on his honor.

My papa was one of the rugs to riches stories and even he was so busy in his business he has some pretty quality time to check me and my studies and send me to one of the best catholic school in roxas district, quezon city, that most rich family can only afford.

I owe papa big time and i felt i was so indebted to my parents that i see to it I made them proud of me…and i know i did make them proud.

Being tough and determined are the quality I inherit from papa, he is strict yet so kind hearted, he loves his family wholeheartedly.. mama hit me words direct without caution but papa scolded patienly yet when the moment you hear him shout oh girl! you wish you was not there…

happy memories of our kambingan is still fresh in my mind, specially papa’s memories even though he rested in the place of our lord for almost ten years I’am missing him so much…that everytime father’s day came i remember the man who never stop believing in me, my ability and how high i can be and how wonderful daughter i was to him.

No matter how busy the business was there are no single moments that he missed the parade and review in fort bonifacio or a play in theatre arts, he was always there cheering for me everytime i recieved a medal and the sweetest part of all is that when he escorted me with pride when I graduated college recieving medal of honor which I heartelly offer to him and to mama. They deserve it more than i do.

But storm hit everybodys life once it awhile and sometimes it came so hard when you didn’t prepared for it . It is so painful seeing your father fighting his last breathe in your arms, you wish you can offer or barter some of your youth to stay him alive, I can’t do anything but hug him and continue whispering prayers as mama on the other side of the room feeling very sick and on the hieght of his blood pressure, oh god seeing your husband that very moment in that condition is a torn that so painful to bear. I can’t forget that day.

The only regret i had is that he was not able to walk down the aisle on my wedding day, we even rehearsed that a couple of time when i was a little girl, I bursted into tears when june 26, 2003 came and papa was not there my wedding was important to him i know that so much , he wants to see me wearing the white wedding gown and feeling beautiful and wearing my big big unstoppable smile with the man i really loved which accidentally Nhat’s father is his friend during his delivery days of goat in q-mart in early 70’s.

My papa is like any father, human as he was had some vices but never had other woman, and I love my father for being so faithful to my mother.

Pa, i know whereever you are, you keep on guiding us, I know you will tell me that i can handle my life and the challeges I am facing..You will pat my back and tell me that be strong because you ARE STRONG ENOUGH TO QUIT LIFE’S ADVERSITY, YOU ARE ONE OF THE FIRST PERSON WHO WILL INSPIRE ME TO DO THINGS RIGHT NO MATTER HOW HARD IT WAS…your love is unconditional that’s why you are being missed so much…. iloveyou pa HAPPY FATHERS DAY…

SONY CYBER-SHOT CAMERAS GET SMARTER Sony is making the grade with the introduction of the stylish Cyber-shot DSC-T700 and DSC-T77 digital cameras with “intelligent” shooting functions.

sony philippines

The 10-megapixel T77 camera is Sony’s thinnest model at less than 5/8 of an inch with a 3-inch, 16 x 9 touch panel LCD screen. It features updated intelligent scene recognition technology, Smile Shutter and face detection technologies with child and adult priority, as well as high sensitivity shooting (up to ISO 3200), eleven scene modes, and in-camera image management.

The T700 model earns extra points as a “photo album in your pocket.” It has all the features of the T77 unit plus 4GB of internal memory that can store nearly 1,000 full-resolution or 40,000 VGA-quality photos; a 3.5-inch, wide touch panel Xtra Fine LCD screen for photo-like viewing (210 pixel-per-inch resolution) with high contrast and wide-angle viewing; and a thin profile (slightly more than 5/8 of an inch) so it can easily slip into a pocket or purse.

“Sony is taking the lead in developing “intelligent” cameras so that taking great pictures is an automatic function and not a complicated process,” said Phil Lubell, director of digital camera marketing at Sony Electronics. “This is part of our effort to enhance the camera experience for customers by offering new functionality.”

Substance and Style
While rich in technologies, style was a key factor in the development of both cameras, said Lubell. They feature a newly-developed Carl Zeiss lens that integrates a 4x optical zoom and Optical SteadyShot image stabilization, yet achieves a slim form factor. They will also be available in a wider selection of color options than previous T-series cameras.

Both cameras feature updated intelligent scene recognition technology that can now select up to eight different scene modes, including macro, portrait and landscape modes.

This technology also includes a new anti-blink function in portrait mode that will virtually make closed-eyed photos an “old school” memory. The cameras will automatically take two shots and then determine whether the subject(s) have closed eyes using their advanced face detection technology. They will only record images with open-eyed subjects. If both pictures have subject(s) with closed eyes, the cameras will record one and display a warning so you can try again.

Sony’s Smile Shutter technology has also been improved. It is easily accessible as a “smiley face” icon, which is now a permanent fixture on the camera’s LCD screen in record mode, and can be toggled off and on at the touch of a finger. And during smile capture, auto focus and zoom functions are available, as well as the ability to take a limitless number of shots.

Not One, But Two Photo Libraries in Your Pocket
The T700 camera is ideal for anyone who wants to have what Lubell calls “bragging” photos of their kids, pets, vacation or sports highlights with them at all times.

Owing to the model’s internal database, thousands of photos can be searched in-camera by event, date, smile or face, including children and infants; displayed in calendar or chronological views; organized in folders; and shared as slide shows or fun scrapbooks.

Unlike previous models, this one allows you to store and manage images on both its 4GB internal memory and an optional Memory Stick media card. You can maximize the number of pictures stored on the camera with the bundled Picture Motion Browser (PMB) software application and its new PC Synch feature.

This new feature lets you downsize images from full-resolution to VGA and export them back to the camera’s internal photo album. The application operates intelligently with the camera so you can shoot more photos. It will only detect, downsize and export the new shots. This allows you to store literally thousands of your favorite photos in the camera It is also possible to export photos shot by other cameras or archived on other media into the camera.

The PMB Portable software inside the camera lets you easily upload photos or videos to popular social networking sites like YouTube (a trademark of Google Inc.) using an internet connection with any compatible PC via the supplied USB cable. It even has pre-programmed sites in the camera.

The camera also has a scrapbook function that automatically creates simulated scrapbook pages. Now you can share, print or save your scrapbooks unlike previous models.

Affirmations are positive statements that describe a desired situation, and which are repeated many times, in order to impress the subconscious mind and trigger it into positive action. In order to ensure the effectiveness of the affirmations, they have to be repeated with attention, conviction, interest and desire.

If you want to start an online business, you simply cannot do it for the monetary gain alone. Yes, we all strive to make a good income but if you’re not having fun, you’ll never see the money. See, it is the having fun part that gives you the courage and wherewithal to ride the waves of good and bad, ups and downs and inconsistent income when you first start out.

If you are not having fun, you simply will not have the passion to get through the tough times and decisions that will have to be made. Your customers and clients will come to rely on your enthusiasm (which comes from having fun) for the confidence and encouragement they need to do business with you.

*
What is your hobby?
*
What do you enjoy doing?
*
Have you invented a better way to do something?
*
Are you passionate about a solution that solves problems?
*
Is there a product you’ve used yourself and love?
*
Do you have valuable experience to share?

Then build a business on that and you’ll thrive because you will have the emotional and principled commitment to make things happen. Think about what you have fun doing and think of a way to turn that into a business. Now you’re thinking! Look, you’re having fun already!

The Web is filled with folks trying to make a buck who aren’t having any fun. You can tell by their poor presentations, their lack of decent service levels and commitment to quality. The ones who aren’t having any fun and are just going for the bucks cut corners every chance they get and complain about the latest challenge technology offers because they don’t enjoy or believe in what they are doing. Just show them the money! Within a short time their site is shutdown and they’ve wasted a lot of time and expense.

For those who are having fun, you know what I mean. You’re on the other side of this screen with that smirk on your face because you’ve been there, done that. You know that when you are having fun you are working harder, learning daily and more focused on your goals than anyone you know. You also happened to be happier, more grounded and a more enjoyable person to be around. Your readers, clients and friends love you and your business thrives because you are having fun!

I’m having fun! Actually, after over 3 years I’m still having a blast! How about you?

My freelance career of four years as a offshore specialist leads me to many great opportunities and open my door to different fields of offshore experience from research to website administration tasks from nearly $100 to $1,000+++ worth of project.

Back in the days when freelancing was limited to a few careers, one needs to have a couple of contact persons from inside the companies willing to outsource some of their jobs to freelancers. And you have to rely on advertisement and exposure by word of mouth as there is no convenient venue to advertise yourself to other companies.

But

The Internet has opened up many freelance opportunities, expanded available markets, and has contributed to service sector growth in many economies. Offshore outsourcing and crowdsourcing are heavily reliant on the Internet to provide economical access to remote workers, and frequently leverage technology to manage workflow to and from the employer.

What really keep me motivated is not the project per base income but the experience itself…and the changes it brings to my own personal belief of FREELANCE WORLD..it makes me busy for the longest year of my life having to face hundreds of bidders online for a specific project..and most of all to meet great client such as sir jacob, sir jay and how can I forget sir max of australia and shane of New Jersey…

Someday my freelance world will bring me to places I dream..offering wide opportunities for advancement and growth at the same time employing more quality people to work home base

I strive hard to learn the craft of freelance and home base work not for my own personal advancement but to share to all those who had faith in ONLINE EARNING WORLD..who knows what the difference I can make to someone’s life when they learn the art of earning online…I just need to allocate more time on honing my ability to learn and share the same time…

Freelance jobs online have taken freelancing to a whole new level. Geographical limit is no longer a hurdle as a freelancer can find a job anywhere in the world without having to leave his seat. Telecommute-style on a global scale. And this is all possible because of the internet and the many online job board sites that have become contact points for freelancers and clients to meet – even without seeing each other.

In life, its hard to stay tough specially when things and people around you keep pulling you down. When we get to the battle field, we should choose the right luggage to bring and armors to use, and pick those that are bullet proof.

Life’s options give us arrays of more options. Along the battle, we will get hit and bruised. And wearing a bullet proof armor ideally means ‘self change’. The kind of change which comes from within. Voluntarily. Armor or Self Change changes 3 things: our attitude, our behavior and our way of thinking.

If you put a small value on yourself, rest assured that the world will not raise your price.

Low self esteem doesn’t see race, sex, age, religion, martial status, height, weight, or any other label or category you could possibly attach yourself to. Unfortunately, low self esteem isn’t something you can plan for, either. But low self esteem is something you can change – with a bit of hard work and patience.

You are what you think. You are what you go for. You are what you do.

Sometimes, you may want to wonder if some people are born leaders or positive thinkers. NO. Being positive, and staying positive is a choice. Building self esteem and drawing lines for self improvement is a choice, not a rule or a talent. God wouldn’t come down from heaven and tell you – “Juliet, you may now have the permission to build self esteem and improve your self.”

Self-pity gets you nowhere. One must have the adventurous daring to accept oneself as a bundle of possibilities and undertake the most interesting game in the world making the most of one’s best.

In general terms, people who suffer from low self esteem may feel or behave in some of the following ways:

# Practice a larger-than-normal amount of negative self talk, such as, “Why would anyone ever want to date me?” or, “I don’t deserve a loving partner”;

# Act destructively towards oneself and/or others, such as self-sabotaging behaviors or being overly critical;

# Apologize frequently and/or exhibit self-doubting behaviors;

* Need constant feedback from outside sources;

* Unable to receive or accept compliments;

* Focus on one’s perceived flaws; and

* Become so much of a perfectionist that basic tasks don’t get finished for fear of failure.

Did you recognize yourself in any of those points? Its nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, many people suffer from periodic bouts of low self esteem. Recognizing that you may be on a bit of a downswing is ok, because at least you can see there is an issue and work towards doing something about it.

How Low Self Esteem Affects Relationships

In a nutshell, when you think poorly of yourself, it shows. Like a bad stain smack in the middle of a white t-shirt, low self esteem is hard to miss, offputing, and ultimately detrimental to any and all relationships, dating or otherwise. So trying to attract a loving, beneficial partner when suffering from low self esteem is an uphill battle, at best.

As well, a nasty side effect of having low self esteem is the uncanny ability to find love in all the wrong ways and places. Think about it: how many times have you given parts of yourself to another in the hopes that they’d love you in return? Unfortunately, many people with low self esteem admit that they have.

In a way, low self esteem in a dating relationship becomes a sort of a push-pull: the person suffering from low self esteem has convinced themselves that they aren’t lovable, yet attempts are made to get the person they are dating to try and prove otherwise. This is a potentially self-defeating, demoralizing and damaging state of affairs, and one that may repeat until the person afflicted chooses to do something about it.

Imagine yourself as a Dart Board. Everything and everyone else around you may become Dart Pins, at one point or another. These dart pins will tear down your self esteem and pull you down in ways you won’t even remember. Don’t let them destroy you, or get the best of you. So which dart pins should you dodge?

Dart Pin #1 : Negative Work Environment
Beware of “dog eat dog” theory where everyone else is fighting just to get ahead. This is where non-appreciative people usually thrive. No one will be grateful for your contributions even if you miss lunch and dinner, and stay up late. Most of the time you work too much without getting help from people concerned. Stay out of this; it will ruin your self esteem. Competition is at stake anywhere. Be healthy enough to compete, but in a healthy competition that is.

Dart Pin #2: Other People’s Behavior
Bulldozers, brown nosers, gossipmongers, whiners, backstabbers, snipers, people walking wounded, controllers, naggers, complainers, exploders, patronizers, sluffers… all these kinds of people will pose bad vibes for your self esteem, as well as to your self improvement scheme.

Dart Pin #3: Changing Environment
You can’t be a green bug on a brown field. Changes challenge our paradigms. It tests our flexibility, adaptability and alters the way we think. Changes will make life difficult for awhile, it may cause stress but it will help us find ways to improve our selves. Change will be there forever, we must be susceptible to it.

Dart Pin #4: Past Experience
It’s okay to cry and say “ouch!” when we experience pain. But don’t let pain transform itself into fear. It might grab you by the tail and swing you around. Treat each failure and mistake as a lesson.

Dart Pin #5: Negative World View
Look at what you’re looking at. Don’t wrap yourself up with all the negativities of the world. In building self esteem, we must learn how to make the best out of worst situations.

Dart Pin #6: Determination Theory
The way you are and your behavioral traits is said to be a mixed end product of your inherited traits (genetics), your upbringing (psychic), and your environmental surroundings such as your spouse, the company, the economy or your circle of friends. You have your own identity. If your father is a failure, it doesn’t mean you have to be a failure too. Learn from other people’s experience, so you’ll never have to encounter the same mistakes.

Building self esteem will eventually lead to self improvement if we start to become responsible for who we are, what we have and what we do. Its like a flame that should gradually spread like a brush fire from inside and out. When we develop self esteem, we take control of our mission, values and discipline. Self esteem brings about self improvement, true assessment, and determination. So how do you start putting up the building blocks of self esteem? Be positive. Be contented and happy. Be appreciative. Never miss an opportunity to compliment. A positive way of living will help you build self esteem, your starter guide to self improvement.

A person’s worth in this world is estimated according to the value they put on themselves.

A person with a low self-esteem, does not mean you can not become a self-esteem person, that is a personality type of confident, warm, optimistic. Of course you can with a strong desire, to open yourself in the community, read a lot to widen your knowledge

# Face your fear. All things that are not we know it makes us afraid and feel inferior. But trust me, fear is only there in our thoughts and reflection. Basically, will not as bad as we think.

# Don’t drown in your failure. Before reach success must have through a failure. Failure of the past, therefore don’t drown in your failure, but avoid making the same mistake, then you will become wiser and stronger.

Know what you want. Whatever you want you must clearly know. So its clear how well the efforts that you can do to reach it. Knowledge about what you want to achieve, to make you believe more that it can be achieved.

Speak, do not assumes. We often make an assumption that a person or situation is really bad. The wrong assumption will make you fell. To speak and get the answers will make you calm.

Failure? The most important do not feel lose. Failure is normal. The most important is how we do not feel defeated, but just learn to reverse the situation.

Appreciate your self if you reach success. Many people forget to appreciate their self, because of feel inferior, or because not grateful, both leave a negative aura on yourself. Appreciate what you have achieve will make other people appreciate it too, and you certainly more motivated to reach what was better.
