It has been said that to be able to become successful in one's chosen field, commitment, passion, energy, dynamism, excitement and love for one's career are needed.

In my case, there are times when being hectic is a norm. From legislative measures, special projects, my media productions, media exposures, meetings, barangay consultations and events, and school and other event invitations flood my schedule. I really don't mind as long as I keep myself productive and do work that is worthwhile. There are even instances when coming from just a few hours of sleep because of past day's busy schedule, I start my day at 7am to attend to events and other things, and end at 1am the next day.

I always believe that it is better to have numerous invitations that sometimes you are in a hurry to go from place to place rather than no invitations at all. It is a privilege and an honor that many people apparently want to see you or hear you speak. This is what gives me strength and determination to do my job well amidst some distractions that sometimes occur.

Truly, it is better to be busy than to be idle.
