It has been more than a month since I last blogged here at Milo Riano. I am not gone and neither am I going away; a lot of great things happened which required my attention.

Just over a year ago I was so happy that I was able to see Bill Gates in person.

Reap the Fruits of Hardwork

I was still lying on bed when I heard over the radio that Anna Nicole Smith died. I cleared my head and thought they were just talking about her 20-year old son who died middle of last year; unfortunately it was the 39-year old actress.

I was taken aback by the sudden death of her son and now Anna who is still very young had the same fate.

This year I decided that my top most priority is my health which includes losing a great amount of body fat percentage, strengthen my heart, eat healthy foods, kick away any bad eating habits, etc.

I am impressed with Peyton Manning who has shown determination and perseverance in developing into one of the greatest football quarterbacks in history after enduring years of defeat and disappointment.

Focus on the goal

It’s a wrong question. A thread at Yahoo Answers asked how different could the world be if people began to follow their dreams. In a prologue of the thread: How would the world be different if people began to follow their own dreams?

In 9 hours and 7 minutes I will live my dreams and see Bill Gates in person.

For someone who cannot afford one complete meal a day, only had two pair of pants and two polo shirts in 4 years in college (so worn out by the time I graduated), walked 4 kilometers to get to school because a transportation of P 1.50 (.041 cents) was too much; these things happening to me in my career is unbelievable.

Heads-up, I was chosen by my company (Accenture Avanade) of more 7,000 employees (in Manila only) to use the only seat given to Manila Center to attend the Microsoft SharePoint Conference 2006 where Bill Gates is delivering the opening key note and facilitate the question and answer session after. One of the youngest and newest employee of the company at 27 years old, I lead the Subject Matter Experts in Collaboration (SharePoint, Project, Office, CMS, VSTS, ACA Portal) of the Philippines.

It took me all my strenght turning nights into days to work my way out of poverty and get to where I am right now.

What are my Philosophies?

Was It Easy?

Hell No!

Anyways, I will be updating you and continue working on this blog to share my insights and beliefs on how to get out of povery and be the best you can be to reach your goals and ambitions in life.

For now, I will focus all my energies until May 19 to live my dreams and work with the best people in the world.

I shall return…
