Ang pag-discover ko sa Personal Development or Self-Help siguro ang pinaka nagpabago ng buhay ko. Kaya lang, habang unti-unti mas nagiging "Okay" ang buhay ko, napansin ko sa sarili ko na yung mga bagay na natutunan ko ay sinasaksak ko na sa baga ng mga tao. Na para bang, "dapat ganito gawin nyo!"
May mga grabe ka na bang pinag-daanan na parang ganun nalang nga... Dinaanan mo lang? What if ang something na grabe na yun pala ang mag-papabago ng buhay mo? Kung for the better or for the worse... Nasasayo na yon.
