As a motivational speaker, I give about 250 talks in a year. This is the question I often get, “Chinkee, don’t ’you get tired?”
Honestly, I maybe tired physically but mentally and emotionally I am super charged, pumped up and energized.
Why do I feel that? Naalala ko noong bata pa ako at wala pang gadget at my games or apps sa phone. Naglalaro tayo sa kalsada ng taguan, touch-taya, chato, tanching, tumabng-preso, patintero, basketbol at chinese garter.
Di ba kung naglalaro tayo, napapagod at hyperactive tayo?
Bakit kahit pagod na pagod na tayo, hindi pa naliligo, libagin at mabaho na ang amoy natin, game na game pa rin tayo.
As a matter of fact, para wala tayong kapaguran at hangga’t hindi tayo habulin ng pamalo ng tsinelas ng ating magulang, hindi tayo titigil.
BAKIT NGA BA?
LOVE WHAT YOU DO
Love natin kasi ang maglaro.
We do not treat them as a task or as a job, because we are having FUN.
Ang sarap maglaro.
Ang sarap kasama yung mga kaibigan mo.
Super enjoy tayo kahit mainit at pagod tayo.
PLAY HARD
Sa tuwing naglalaro tayo, grabe! Kina-career natin at ginagalingan natin yung game natin. Nag-iisip tayo pa ng magandang strategy kung paano natin sila tatalunin. Gagawin natin ang lahat, uubusin natin ang ating lakas para manalo.
We give our all na parang walang bukas.
WE HATE LOSING
Remember the pain of defeat.
Natalo ka na, kinantiyawan ka pa.
“Balagong, chicharon.”
“Losers!!!”
Nobody wanst to lose. We all love to win.
Di ba, hindi ka pumapayag na matalo.
Kapag may makita tayong nagawa na hindi tama.
Sumsigaw tayo ng, “Ang daya mo! Hindi yan counted!”
Kahit madilim na at gabi na, game pa rin.
Walang uwian until such time hindi tayo nakakabawi.
Tapusin na natin tapusin, hindi natin pinabubukas ang dapat tapusin.
WE NEVER GIVE UP
At kung talagang matalo, hindi tayo umaayaw, laban tayo ulit bukas. Bukas bawi tayo! Hindi tayo makakapayag!
Hindi ka aayaw until hindi tayo nanalo.
Hahahaha! Remember, those were the good old days!
Whether you like it or not, work has been part of our daily lives.
Kahit noong tayo ay bata pa, alam mo ba nag wo-work na tayo.
Yes, kahit pagod na pagod na tayo, laban pa rin.
Kahit ang init ng panahon, hindi tayo nag rereklamo.
Bakit, kasi sobra tayong nag-eenjoy.
Grabe, kung pwede lang natin dalhin yung ganitong attitude natin sa ating trabaho at ginagawa.
WE LOVE WHAT YOU DO.
WE PLAY HARD.
WE HATE LOSING.
WE NEVER GIVE UP.
Maniwala ka, walang makakatalo sayo at mamahalin mo ang work mo.
“Work is not work if you LOVE what you’re doing”
-Chinkee Tan, Motivational Speaker Philippines
THINK. REFLECT. APPLY.
- Ikaw, nag-eenjoy ka ba sa work mo?
- Do you work hard?
- Do you hate losing?
- Do you really enjoy what you’re doing as if na naglalaro ka lang?
- If not, ano pa ang ginagawa mo?
- Don’t you think it is time for you to find something you love to do, so that you won’t have to work another day in your life?
