blessings

Kung may isang aral tungkol sa goal setting o paggawa ng layunin at visualization na palagi kong nalilimutan, ito ay ang magawiang gawin ang mga iyon gabi gabi bago matulog. Ngayon ko nalaman na may lumang kanta pala tungkol doonat ang titolo nito ay “Count your Blessings (Instead of Sheep)” ni Irving Berlin na kinanta rin ni Jose Mari Chan. Ito nga pala ay madalas pinapatugtog tuwing magpapasko. Nagkataon nga naman na narinig ko itong itinugtog noong Linggo (Sep. 24*) at dahil doon naisip kong isulat itong article na ito para sa inyo.

*Nagsisimula kasi ang Christmas season sa Pinas sa Setyembre.

If there’s one lesson about goal setting and visualization that I keep forgetting, it’s remembering to do them at night before going to bed. I just recently found out that there was an old song about it called “Count your Blessings (Instead of Sheep)” by Irving Berlin (also sung by Jose Mari Chan) and that it’s traditionally played during Christmas season. It was quite a coincidence that I heard it playing at a coffee shop last Sunday (Sep. 24*), and thanks to that I managed to think up this lesson for you today.

*That’s because Christmas season in the Philippines starts in September.
