Buffet and Ideas

Bit your tongue?

Hi, .

When people get together, they sometimes (or most of the time?) talk about other people. Specifically, the people who aren’t present in the get-together. 

So if you accidentally bit your tongue, they would say, “May nakaalala sa iyo.”

I thought it is normal to do get-togethers and talk about other people, whether they are present or not.

Until recently.When Mary Anne dela Cruz and Shawi Cortez visited my father at home, we talked until it was Cinderella’s time to go home. The next day, my mother and brother said we talked of ideas, not people. You may have seen that post.Post-Christmas, I attended Nins Mendoza’s annual get-together in a buffet restaurant. We had two tables because we were walk-in customers. Nevertheless, we exchanged seats to whomever we wanted to talk to. We talked of ideas, not people.

On the third day of the year (and of the decade), our CashFlow 101 group ate at another buffet restaurant.(I should have gotten fat by now but hey, I didn’t choose my genes.) We talked of ideas even before we had our first bite.

If you wish there is a buffet restaurant - or a house, or an office, or a coffee shop - that not only serves food, but also great conversations, you will be disappointed.

But there is always hope.

You can create those conversations.

How?

Choose great habits.

Choose great friends. 

Choose great thoughts.

Choose your environment.

Choose better. Choose greater. 

You’re exceptional,
