For quite sometime now, I have distanced myself from this contest from the Influential Blogger blog of Ms. Janette Toral. I just started blogging for real last January 2008 (my first blog, blogRebel was actually started in November 2007, but there’s not much content in there - I must admit, I am a poor writer, and shun socializing with bloggers online).

Last January when I registered this domain Bloggista.com, I didn’t have any idea what to do with it. I just loved the way it sound - bloggista. And I thought the word Bloggista exactly describes a blogger, a passionate blogger at that. If Fashion is to a Fashionista, then Blog is to a Bloggista. So I decided to make Bloggista.com a newbie blogger’s blog - about his journey towards making money online. In a span of 6 months, I have grown my website network to more than a dozen of websites - each slowly giving nice returns on investment.

Then several people nominated the Bloggista to the Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs in 2008. Exactly why I avoided this contest - Bloggista doesn’t want to put himself in the limelight - even for a few seconds. I was already having fun browsing through blogs, finding bloggers to idolize, spending so many hours a day thinking what to blog and how to blog. Bloggista just don’t want complications. Bloggista just want to exist in his own share of the blogosphere.

But then some nice people “wasted” a vote for a blogger who doesn’t want himself included - I am already happy with what I am doing… But should those votes be wasted? After some deep thinking - I decided to reconsider and instead recognize those people that made me buy my own domain, and made me prefer blogging over hours of online games, billiards and bar-hopping. And of course I should be giving justice to those kind enough to give me a vote.

If you are currently unemployed, and making money from other sources isn’t giving you enough, you may consider looking for some employment instead in the Contact/Call Center industry. The good thing about this sector of the Outsourcing industry is that it remains stable and still giving many Filipinos a choice to earning money.

One best way to get a Call Center job is to visit Job Fairs and Expo that are organized by the prospective employers themselves. From July 23-24, 2008, the Contact Center Association of the Philippines, or CCAP, is holding its Annual Call Center Conference and Expo at the SMX, Mall of Asia in Pasay City, Metro Manila.

Better check it out, and make sure to bring your latest CV/Resume. You may also be interviewed ON-SITE, as told by the CCAP organizers during this morning’s Umagang Kay Ganda TV program on ABS-CBN. So be ready for a job interview as well.

We all want to succeed in everything that we do. Achievement is everyone’s  dream.  No matter how small is your goal, getting it done successfully is like getting the whole world in your hands. You’re on top of the world - you feel fulfillment, joy, happiness.

But the road to success is long, winding one, full of humps and bumps, and crossings and intersections and obstructions. Adding the fact that you are not alone in going there, others do dream too, and the opportunities may not be enough for everyone.

Do you feel sometimes you just need to talk to someone and hear those words you already know, but hearing it from somebody gives you a different push, a different perspective, a different reaction, and a different action?

During those times when you are planning to do something, where you have lots of things to do to achieve your objectives -  you need to pause for a while, gather your thoughts, assess your progress and take the much needed boost to go on. You can talk to someone, or if there is no one to talk to, you can be creative. I do this by writing what I have in mind, giving myself a few doses of inspiration and comforting words. Thanks to blogging, I can share you my thoughts. And in this post I am talking about NOT giving up… Persistence.

This post may not be of interest to you anyway. These are just raw ramblings of a blogger, a dreamer, a persistent person. So you may want to indulge yourself anyhow. However if you come here to see the latest update on the 2008 Nursing Board Exam results, you can follow that link to get out from this page as fast as you can.
