The Game of My Life

LEAP: Love, Excellence, Abundance, Power


I just graduated from this life seminar called LEAP last December 16-17, 2006. LEAP is the seven week program wherein i went through modules that required physical as well as emotional involvement to help me realize my dreams...
Some had money goals of earning 1 million pesos, some set up their own foundations or enterprises. I completed a draft of my modern fairytale book and pampered my body as well as go out on 15 dates. Believe me, juggling work, late night meetings with my life coach and council mates, and fullfilling my weekly action plan was a challenge. And I give myself a pat on the back for daring to test my capacity. Being the introvert shy person, going out on dates, revising my wardrobe was a challenge. For the book, I usually get stuck with the intros, if I don't like the beginning chapter I don't finish any draft at all... but now I am proud to say I did it!



During the journey there were

tears...












and I learned I can shift to being happy, by the power of my choice...





I learned how to get out of my comfort zone by trying on something different,

a new perspective or a new style.










I learned how to listen with my heart, recognizing unexpected life mentors.










And that a touch could last a long while in the hearts of the lonely and abandoned...











And of course, it's nice to be naughty sometimes... ;-)



And it feels good to remember my light within.. thanking God that I am already complete, with or without achievements...















The journey is not so much a roller coaster but more of a constant tug of war.. will I settle for what is comfortable or mediocre the next time? Will I dwell again on the dramas of my life? Or will I remember I am created loving, powerful, and beautiful? I hope in the real game of my life (the life AFTER) the seminar, I will be able to make happy choices and fully exude the greatness within me.

I love me! I love life! Thank you for this experience OCCI Team Leap 30eeee!!!

Yes! That's the surprise makeover! I was both nervous and excited when they called my name and told I will be madeover by a team of fashionistas and make up artists.. there was so much love and joy in the process... and heck, you can't even see the two inch platform strappy sandals I was wearing with that get-up! Rampa Rampa! I never thought I could feel comfortable wearing a tube, but I did. =)
