I miss this space.

It is a universe of a different plane. The busy world around me prevented me from visiting this sanctuary. Not that I am complaining. It is not like that but talking to myself through this medium is long overdue. Being alone and just thinking about the silence and digging deeper into the recessess of my mind is a journey I always enjoy and look forward ( although this opportunity seldom happens).

For the past few months I work and move like a blur. So many meetings that at this point I am thinking if its worth it. So many talks that I am thinking is it worth the effort. So many out of the office and home ventures that I am thinking is it worth if those time is spent with my family.

I guess reality in my time so fast that all the people around are moving crazy that also forces me to move crazy.

I don't mind if I am inside of this reality but right now I am looking for an epiphany. I am waiting for a burst of enlightenment. I am and I will wait for this time.

Trying time are here, and maybe everyday since the first day of history - trying times are present.This is true not only to each individuals but for businesses most especially.

But what do we do with this given.

There are several options:

1. To give-up and die on the process.

2. To run and hide before you reality caught you.

3. To stand and fight back, may win or lose, but come-out wounded.

4. To manage and strategize, lessen the risk and impact.

This are all path that we all can take.

However, if you ask me, I will select number 4. The difference between 3 and 4 is that in 4 you are managing your emotions and thinking with sensitivity of all the situations and developments that you are in.

We cannot influence or change the bigger things that are powerful and beyond our reach. But what we can do is manage our reactions in the center of these chaos. In addition, think of better ways not to be hurt or devastated in the things that are shaping in our very eyes.

I would like to immediately say that we should all think positive but as John Maxwell says we have to be realistic in thinking positive. We have to gauge what are our odds versus life and our personal battles.

This thing that I am saying is very much the same with running an actual event.We plan hard and do checklist in all possible needs and scenarios. Still, on the actual event some unexpected and unseen things happen. What we do is manage and strategize on how to solve the situation - this is the magic of operation there are always surprises but the key is managing it and making it look good in the end.

When the odds are against you, most especially, in these times you must FIGHT.

Fight because to withdraw will not do anything positive to you. Fighting does not automatically means violence. Fighting means standing-up and devising ways on how to survive the challenges hurled by the environment around you.

Fighting can be fun! To fight does not make you serious. Seriousness most of the times deprived you of creativity and the free spirit critical in winning a battle.

But when push comes to shove, yes be serious but after accomplishing the task, after winning the battle, bring the good old reliable smile on your face.

Fight because human spirit is made to make adversity kneel down and surrender to humanity.

I have a young team that youthfullness is what we can boast as our strength! Youth being the same as energy and passion.

Being in the event industry, it is a plus factor. However, the challenge is how to realize the potential of the team. The potential is there but to harness it and convert it to results that is the journey that we all have to take. Together we need to discover ourselves.

Our organization's culture and values are very much the heart of our edge in the competition. We do business for our country. We do business to grow this country to one of the most admired nation in the world, particularly in the business events category.

But first and foremost, youthfullness must be blended with maturity, to which we are now focusing our efforts alongside maintaining our service with our esteemed clients.

I don't know if I sound Greek. I hope that I am no over generalizing so as to make this discussion go to a plain that is perched in the philosophical. I don't want that! What I want is how to convert the fire in the eyes of our young group to a productive force that will serve our clients and achieve our vision.

Our vision is to be one of the best Business Event Organizer in Asia not to feel our egos but to generate business in our country and make the outsider consider the Philippines as one of their business destination.

There are others like us, but for now I am concern about our group. Hopefully as I write, all of the members of my organization is on the same page.

No matter what, right now we will meet head on what is in front of us!

An exciting event is coming to town. An event that is focused on teaching future entrepreneurs on the workings of Global Trade.

Even though at this point in time export and import is battered by the economic crisis, there is no way but up as the requisites for normalization are being addressed.

In the Philippines, entrepreneurship is going strong. Despite the crisis, there are a lot of small business that sprouted all over the country. These small business have the potential to make an impact in the global arena.

The Global Young Entrepreneurs Summit will answer important questions on how to go about Global Trade and Business. Participants of this event will have an edge compared to others. Prominent speakers coming from PHILEXPORT, PCCI, Marketing and Exporters will provide important know how to students.
