The Pinoy's Power Nap

It's been a while. I missed writing my thoughts away.

Something for you readers.....

THE POWER NAP

They say power naps are good for you. However, the ordinary Filipino do more than just nap in the afternoon. They (we) sleep.

I am referring to the lazy ones of course. Or those who just don’t understand that time is gold. Or those who think their work for the day – and so are their income for the day – are enough for them to afford  a longer nap than usual.

When I was in the US,one of the first things i noticed was the ordinary US street (kalsada). They are almost empty , unlike in the Philippines where in every corner you’ll see some group of people chatting their time away. I’m talking adult half-naked males puffing cigarettes and women (sometimes even carrying around babies) here, by the way.

Dear reader, ever wondered why we have become this way? Or who taught us to be this way? Or why? Again, our society permits us to be like this. I have never heard of anybody in the Philippines who  EMPHASIZED that this is bad. No one, Nada.

“Kulang na nga ang kinikita natin sa maghapong trabaho, may gana pa tayong makipag-tsismisan sa kanto? O kaya matulog sa hapon?”

If we want wealth to follow us the rest of our lives, let us stop following  the old ways. Let us value TIME more. I mean 100x more. Be productive; Find work; Find means to earn extra cash during your spare time.

DO NOT TAKE A longer NAP than usual. It is bad. Even  shameful.

When you’re retired and gray, you’ll have plenty of naps and tsismis time. But today, while you still can, be as productive as possible. Always be on the lookout for extra income. Earn more cash. Seach for it; Ask around; Think of ways to earn more.

Once again  dear readers, do not let the world pass us by. Pinoy, wake up. It is time.
