I am also currently working on a mobile version of the site (http://m.seriouslytalking.com). Someof the pages have been uploaded already but it is still largely under construction. I hope I would be through with this one soon...

My Work in Progress!!
Well, I'm now through with DLA and I hope (I know I will ) I would have opportunities to practice the things I've learnt. Well, my latest site is http://www.seriouslytalking.com. I have actually been working on this site for a while now bcuz it is very heavy and demands a lot of attention, but I must say that I am proud of my work so far... It is a relationship forum that allows ppl to talk about their problems anonymously and hear opinions of others on the subject matter. They can also send and recive private messages to other registered members. The site is simply a work of art and I'm proud of it

Extra School Hours
I thought I was finally over with classes until I started attending Daystar Leadership Academy (DLA). This is no ordinary school where you sit and hear boring lectures that may never be useful to you. In this "school", students are trained how to start their own businesses, manage existing business and become great leaders in their families and in the society at large. One of the most important lessons I've learnt is that success is first within (in your mindset) then without (expressed in the physical world). You would be surprised how often we limit ourselves in our minds...
Another wonderful lesson I've learnt so far is the importance of raising other leaders around you. If we want a better world, we need better leaders. We are those leaders, the young generation of this world. I know we've all heard that we are the future, but I think it's time I started living the reality of that statement. I don't have to be a positional leader (with a post to my name), but I need to rise to the greatest level of leadership, where I make impact everywhere I find myself, even without an official post.
There are so many things I've learnt, but another that spole out to me is the fact that so many of us live with very low self-esteems and we don't even realise it. When you are always conscious of what people say about you, you have a low sefl-esteem. Well I've always been that guy who wants to know if people are talking about him. I'm improving and I know that I'd become better by His Grace.
Whew!! Yea, I've really learnt a lot and it's been really great listening to the experiences of so many people and learning from them. I write my final tests this Saturday and I'm not sure I've read enough, but the courses are more practical than theoretical, so I'm sure I'd do well.
This school has been great for me and I believe that there are great opportunities out there for me. All I have to do is open my eyes and see them (ofcourse I have to be prepared before those opportunities come, else...) So wish me the best as I step tp the next level. Meet you at the top.
