The House Of Puroy Enterprises

I know I said that I won’t be writing about SONA anymore, since there’s nothing I can say about it really. With the VAT staying as it is, I guess we just have to work harder so we can pay some more.

But honestly, the reason why I’m having another blog post with the subject is that I have been receiving hits referred by Google and Yahoo searches, the subject of which is “Copy of SONA 2008“, and somehow I can see the frustrations on their face when their search leads them to my blog and can’t find what they’re looking for.

So I searched the web myself for the copy of the SONA and was fortunate to find it. Now for those who are searching for the copy of it, for whatever reason, they will no longer be frustrated when they arrive here.

For the full text of the SONA, just click here.

And that’s all there is to this post.

I hope searchers will find it useful.

Tomorrow, July 28, 2008, President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo (GMA) will deliver her eighth State Of The Nation Address since she assumed office since 2001. And this early, there has been lots of preparations, both from the camps of the administration and the opposition.

Transport groups are planning to stage a strike on the very same day the President will deliver her SONA, a former government official is said to have already delivered his own SONA. And all of these commotions will definitely continue, days after the SONA has been delivered.

Do they honestly believe I would fall for this?

I would like to post and promote as well, the other blogs that I am currently maintaining right now. And while their links may already be in the sidebars, herewith are some brief descriptions of what they are and why they are.

Here goes:

REFLECTIONS
poems… essays… emotions… reflections

My very first blog. Used to be that I will post everything here… my pains, my views, feelings, news, poems… everything! Until I realized that everything shouldn’t be here. Which began the creation of a series of other blogs. To contain other items that should not be here. This blog is personal.

Now it contains essays and poems, as well as views and latest happenings in my life.

Be Inspired Now!
as I seek for inspiration… I also seek to be one…

A blog where I can share my poems… my stories… wherein I could hope to inspire others. Here is where I will also share some stories that I got from the net and other people… and somehow were also able to make some difference in my life.

And as my invitation for this blog goes….

Let us all be inspired!

Next to attending seminars and actual classes, reading books is a great way to gain knowledge in anything, whether it be in business, arts, personal development and so on. Books on business and entrepreneurship, as well as management and leadership, are not lacking in titles. From Robert Kiyosaki, Donald Trump, Zig Ziglar, John Maxwell to our very own Francisco Colayco, Francis Kong, Larry Gamboa and even Bo Sanchez! These guys have written books that would help anybody – from the business novice to the seasoned entrepreneur.

However, having the right weapons and the knowledge of properly using them is an entirely different thing. Reading all the books in the world will not make anyone successful… that is if he does not know when to put down the book. These authors would love to have their books read, no doubt about that, but they would be much happier I guess if their book would be applied in real life.

Theories, when applied, gives a much more meaning to what was learned. Only when we take the courage to apply what we have read, can we pay back all the great authors who have unselfishly shared their insights and experiences. Anything learned without being applied is useless – for the best way to learn to do anything is by actually doing it!

So put down that book!

Stop reading and start doing!
