I am sure I made a post before and my post title is Lessons 101. This is part 2 and I'm gonna be quoting some people on twitter that has taught me somehow with their tweets. Most are out-of-the -moment tweets and the rest are conversations that I have with some tweeple.

Good to know the world isn't actually crumbling around me. Well, just me anyway. 09:27 PM February 27, 2008
These people, they got a big heart. Sometimes they don't talk to you but even when they don't you still learn something from them. The secret to make them talk to you, you @(name) them. You can follow everyone you want. Some will follow you back. Sooner, about 2% of those who follow you will decide to not follow you.
Some will be drinking beer, and at the other side of the world, some are drunk. Sometimes, they pissed you off, but if you are the typed who gets mad easily, then better not follow them. One thing I know, they are people like you. Weakness, strong points, good at something, and bad at this thing - looks like the same old imperfect human.
I was called anti-social once. I can still remember the line, "You're a geek! Check out your ass in front of the mirror and it's flat! You spend more time in front of the computer and you don't even exercise." I said, "Geeks are rich. I can get a surgeon and get my ass done. What about you? You need one, I can ask some people online to donate. They are very giving."
It's a good thing to at least go back and think of all the people who do you good and thank them. This will be a long post.
At work:
These are the people that inspire me to work for if not I won't get paid. (laugh my heart out) Actually, if I don't do my job all of us will not get any from the company we're working at.

Online - Twitter
These are my online buddies who give me awesome advice on anything. Giving me hugs and kisses and a whole lot of loving everyday. I learn a lot from this people. Sign up for twitter here.
Let us start with the basic. Why makes you do this and that?
My answer to that question is, I do this marketing job because this gives me the money that I am going to pay for the needs of my Dad. Other reasons are; I can buy food with this income, clothes, travel and others. The bottom line really is my Dad needs me. The only way I can give Dad my support is through working whether or not I like my day job. Dad is partially disable and I know he can still work but will not give him the opportunity to give his best for he can't move all his fingers at his left hand. I volunteered to be Dad's other income. I do pay for his light and water bills. Sometimes I give money for his food. Other thing Dad wants to have, like his vices, Dad gets through his own effort.
If you will ask me, I do not like marketing job. But if I keep thinking that I hate this job, I will not be productive. My needs down to my goal to help Dad will not be achieved. Even if I hate this job, there will always be something for me to learn. Something for me to be useful at and in time, I will be productive for this area.
The ability to do well on things I don't like is the main reason why I am happy right now. It may not be in terms of how much is my savings, it is terms of how many people I have helped through the process.
I looked at the future and not tomorrow's result. I am looking for ways to learn from it and not just them, my clients/prospects, learn from me. I do it for Dad, for me, for my other siblings. I enjoy everyday talk with different people. I enjoy smiling and saying Good morning/afternoon to anybody. I restrict my mind to thinking negative. I talk and join people with so much positive attitude in life.
Ironic because I never like the marketing job, but I do enjoy and love everything I do. Do you enjoy what you do?
