God has plans for each of us. It is said that when a door closes, a window opens. This is so true with the presidential appointments of my father and brother.
God knows what is best for us. We should trust Him. This is of relevance to the appointments of my sister and the acceptance of my wife to her dream role.
My brother, former 3 term Barotac Viejo Mayor Raul C. Tupas (former Captain of the Special Forces of the Philippine Army) was appointed by Pres. Noynoy Aquino last September as Department of Agriculture National Director 3. He was also given special order by Dept. of Agri. Sec. Alcala to be his Technical Assistant for Regions 6 and 10. Congratulations again bro and continue to do well for the Ilonggos, the farmers and the nation in general. Good luck and God bless.
My father, former Barotac Viejo Municipal Mayor, former Region VI Assemblyman, former Congressman of the 5th District of Iloilo and former Governor of the Province of Iloilo Atty. Niel D. Tupas Sr. was nominated by Pres. Noy just this 1st week of November as Philippine National Oil Company Exploration Corporation (PNOC EC) Executive. Congratulations again Tatay for being PNOC EC Director. Continue to do well for the Ilonggos, for oil and energy consumers and for the nation. Do well and God bless.
My sister, Nielette Tupas Balleza was also appointed about 7 months ago as PCSO National Consultant. She has helped a lot of people who need medical assistance and has assisted the PCSO Chairman in numerous programs and projects. She graduated Magna Cum Laude from UPD and was under the BAMA Honors Program.
My beloved wife, Dr. Candice Alumisin-Tupas worked hard to gain a slot to become a dermatologist resident. She passed through the qualifying phase, got exams, passed requirements, was chosen from the numerous applicants to join the pre-residency phase (only 15 were called) until she was accepted to join as Derma Resident of a State Owned Hospital (only 2 of them were chosen if I am not mistaken) and will become a Medical Officer 3 starting January next year. I am so proud of you wifey. Your dream of helping more people will happen. I love you.

Risk Tolerance

So, are you all in or it's time to just be on the safe side? Remember, high risk, high rewards but high losses as well and no risk might mean lack of or no growth at all.
Are you willing to risk it all? Are you risk averse? Are you somewhere in the middle?
These are very important questions we need to ask ourselves to know what kind of people we are when it comes to risk and when we decide to enter a particular endeavor.
This is true when it comes to work, career, business opportunities and to the thing we call love.
In deciding whether to be employed, to be an employer or to be both, it is essential to know what best fits our risk profile. There are many who would like to have a permanent employment since it needs no capital and might be considered the risk free choice. Nowadays though even someone who graduated from the best university with the greatest credentials can't be too sure because of the volatile business environment. On the other hand, there are those who are not content with a fixed income and would rather be an employer themselves. This involves risks and it can fail or do well depending on many factors. Some can withstand losses for a certain period of time before they realize profits and others accept defeat and close during times of economic downturn. Furthermore, there are some who would like to have the best of both worlds. A fixed monthly income to be sure that there is something that comes every month while having their own small business on the side that may possibly add to their expected monthly income. In this instance, time management and prioritization is key to making both things work well. Some may experience success for both and some might just want to try having a small business while having a fixed expected monthly income to know if a business is something they would want. There are some who do such and when their business grows they then decide to give up their employment and focus on the business while there are some who do not do well in business and decide to focus on their day jobs instead.
Risk is a part of life. The question is what kind of risk are we ready to handle and manage. Low, medium or high or non at all. In facing risks, we should be ready to win and the hardest part is to lose. If we lose, we should know when is the best time to get out and cut losses.
In entering something whether business, a job or love, we should prepare ourselves for the worst while hoping for the best. As such, we cushion ourselves if and when we fall or exceed expectations when we are victorious.
Let us thus get to know ourselves more. Always remember that not everything we decide to embark on will result to success for us. There are times that we may fail and there are times we need to fail consecutively to be able to appreciate life more, be stronger and to find what is best fit for us. Risks make us better people and by risking, we lead ourselves to growth and betterment.

Sometimes, we walk through life and disregard what ever comes our way. Apparently, we do such because we take for granted what is, what was and what will be for one reason or another.
Sometimes, we walk through life and disregard what ever comes our way. Apparently, we do such because we take for granted what is, what was and what will be for one reason or another.
Constant changes come everyday. Some we may be able to control but most of it are out
of our control. People that walk by us, may never walk by us again. Friends that
are here, may never be here again, our family and loved ones, may be present for now, but
the inevitable will always happen. Not now but soon and accepting such might be good for us so that we cherish and value them always.
Some are young, some grow old, but age is not a matter of how long, but of when,
Some are young, some grow old, but age is not a matter of how long, but of when,
when our time is up, when our days are numbered and when we should leave, we have
no choice, our options are never open, it is said to be a one way ticket.
Just like men and women in the military, they are called, at certain times called to war, they leave and come back
Just like men and women in the military, they are called, at certain times called to war, they leave and come back
at not their circumstance, but by a matter of time. They do not have time in their hands.
What they have is time to spare. Limited and sometimes unreasonable time.
They may say they need to leave but some of them might never come back.
Time, we may have it, but how much? how long? . . .
Time, we may have it, but how much? how long? . . .
Indeed live, love, and never take life for granted. We may awake, every morning with the
same routine, same tasks, but let us be grateful, because we have life to live.
Let us take time and make time for people we love and good things. Let us not forget, that time is one of the most precious gifts
that we have or possibly the most precious one. Keep it, make it worth your while, because once it slips out of the window, it
will never come back. Time wasted is time that will never be taken back.
So what is now, what was, and what will be, is of our own making. It is a decision that is up to us.
Let time be one of our utmost concern. Time is a commodity that we cannot purchase. As such, let us use time well and wisely. Let us make every moment of our lives and the lives of others we interact with memorable and happy.
No Short Cut to Success

In life, We tend to meet challenges and obligations that we should overcome.. Goals we have to achieve and
requirements we have to pass. If things are done well, this can possibly lead to success.
In life, we cannot lay in a bed of roses. In life, we must go through barbed wires and cross coals of fire to meet our success.
Being human, we have the potential to give up, or to find a short cut. We do such on our path
towards happiness, personal contentment and of course respect for others. Indeed, some people do step on the shoes of others in order for us to attain what we want. We sometimes go to a road that shouldn't have been taken, for a shorter way to success. By doing so we may achieve success, but does it sum up the whole person being you or the contentment because of achieving it the shorter way? Value, appreciation, true contentment and fulfillment might not be present if one always go for short cuts. This might be a reason why a lot wish to win the lottery or inherit big so that things just come so easy but usually they don't value what they won due to it being easy to get and to have.
We must remember, the easy way to success is also the easy way to lose success. We must struggle, we must overcome the odds, and of course sacrifice towards attaining success. Let us go not necessarily the long way or more aptly the right way. Let us work hard for success for with it we gain the respect of others, we gain self respect and we gain our self contentment.
Apparently, the secret to success is determination, patience, commitment, tenacity, focus and of course trust in the Lord and guidance from Him. With all these said and done, we do not need any shortcut to success.
