How Open Minded Are You?

You Are 4% Open Minded

You may be surprised to hear that you're not very open minded... and a little judgmental.
You tend to dislike others that are different from you.
While you may be open to a few new things, you don't reach far beyond what you believe.
And it's likely that you don't even want to discuss different points of view!
 

I'm not judgmental as I try to understand people with different views in life.  I'm actually surprised with the questions I answered because it's about being open minded to bisexuality, vices, drugs, infidelity and many other negative things.  Disliking illegal and bad things doesn't mean disliking the people bec. sometimes  it's the spirit in them that you don't like not the person itself.  I don't have to favor their bad habits and vices just to be open minded.  Being open minded relates to understanding the situation of your family, friends and relatives and being able to give advices and tips on them whenever they need you.  I can discuss different points of view but I don't want debate especially on my belief and faith to God.  I want to share God's wonderful grace and not debate about it.

Dreaming for His Graduation Day

DH is so active with his studies now and I noticed that he’s really doing his best in all his subjects. He’s counting the years up to when he would graduate and start a new career totally different from his previous job. I support him in any way I can and I know he’s very happy about it. I’m looking forward to that day when he would come up the stage on his graduation day to receive his dream college diploma.

I bet he’s going to give some invitation just like the holiday invitations we usually get on special holiday seasons to his family and friends to join the happy moment of his life. Anyway that will be four years from now which is the time also for our eldest daughter to enter college. That I think is a good planning of DH because we’ll going to need high finances and he’ll be qualified then for better employment opportunities. He plans to be a college professor which I think is very appropriate for him.

For Investors and Hobbyists

I’m fond of collecting things and it became a hobby for me. When I was young I used to collect foreign stamps, stationeries, dried roses, pens and old coins. Of all the mentioned hobbies collecting old coins proved to be the most enjoyable for me so I kept it safe from any harm. Because of hectic schedule my collections were not given any attention now and they’re just stored in a safe place.

Now I just saw this site that let investors and hobbyists buy gold coins. I was informed that value of these coins will most likely to appreciate than other things so I am sure that it’s a good investment that you can put your money in. We always have to be sure when we’re thinking about investment because it involves big finances.

When You're Sleepy

Here I am continuing what’s left of my task that will be due after midnight. I don’t think I will be able to work after our travel too Laguna where the celebration will take place. It’s usually traffic when we’re going home just like all our outing in Pansol and Tagaytay City. Every time we travel I find myself doing nothing at home after arrival. Maybe it’s the tiredness that sometimes numbs the mind. Well oftentimes the travel itself makes me so sleepy that long after we arrived at the house my eyes droops even before my usual sleeping time. You know how hard it is to work when you’re so sleepy, it makes everything in blurred vision or sometimes you’ll get blurred mind lol!

Very Productive Day

I’m very productive today and I’m amazed that despite having same tasks in all of my sites I was able to think different topics and ideas. The words literally are overflowing from my thoughts and I’m finishing tasks in very short span of time. Well I needed that because I have to finish them all before we go to Pansol tomorrow early morning. It’s our dear pastor’s birthday and I decided not to bring my laptop with me so I can take a break and rest. The kids will not go with us as this is their review week for their periodical exams next week. It’s harder to cope up with past lessons if they will be absent from school. So I’m expecting a no-sleep night ahead of me to finish all tasks due tomorrow. I’ll be leaving the house in a few minutes for our bible study.

When Business is Not Meant For You

Most of the employees I know who have resigned from job and retired early resorted to running a small business of their own. It’s the most common action on resigned and retired employees like me. We somehow have this thought of having a steady income even after leaving the corporate world. Some succeeded in running their own business but few were not meant to be business men I guess because they stopped after some time. Those who found that business was not meant for them can give investment a second thought as many succeeded in investing their money. It’s only a question of where to invest your money that’s to be thought and plan about.

Well for some ideas you can look at some sites where they offered investment like buying gold coin or some other precious metals which are time-tested to appreciate values over the years. That will be an assurance that you’ll be receiving high returns of your capital. Our money is hard to earn so we need to think carefully where we should invest it.

Great Job!

I’m full up to my head! I’m talking about my tasks which suddenly became too many for me to finish. I’m not complaining though it may seem tiring to do but it also means earnings. I really thank God that I have this wonderful work-at-home job . This way I can plan ahead of time going to some places without asking employer to sign my absence form and leave.

The Bicycle Test

You Are Confident

You've accepted yourself fully, and you're happy with where you are in life. You are extremely content.
Your gut reactions are neither negative nor positive. You tend to see both sides of issues. You are efficient and savvy. You don't get tied down by unnecessary details.

Yes I'm confident because I'm happy with simplest things that is in me.   I learned to accept things as they are and be contented for what God has given me including my looks, my status in life, my family, my finances and every little thing that I have.  My guts are not that high and not so low, sometimes I'm brave and sometimes not.  I get along fine with everyone and I don't make a fuss of things.  In short I'm just your ordinary friendly neighbor.

When Your Work is Not Exciting Anymore

Being in the same work everyday with routine works is such a not-so nice thing for me because it will not exercise your brain anymore with works that repeats everyday. When I was assigned in our sister company’s Accounting Dept. 7 years ago without any knowledge on it gave me excitement because I’m seeing myself learning different field of study from my computer engineering course. When I had the job for three years it dawned on me that I’m not getting any wiser and smarter because the works I’m doing were just routine works.

That’s when I started to seek for more and it ended in my resignation and concentrate on freelance writing which is more exciting for me or should I say I love doing. It also opened up better earning opportunities for me that investing on gold coins or some other valuable things seem possible now except that it really costs high. Anyway investing is a long process of thinking, planning and decision making so I’m leaving it up on hubby to decide what kind we would most likely to have in the next few months.

Traffic Improvements

I learned from my sister that traffic situation now is so good that it only takes her less than an hour to reach her office. I presumed that one hour is the longest travel time for her now and I’m glad that we’re seeing road improvements. I’m thinking that maybe the lifting of coding window helps and the elimination of special permit to travel on coding days. Well all is fair now. I’m happy that going to work now is much faster and convenient unlike last year when you can get almost stranded on traffic jam. Being late for work affects your record and your attitude sometimes as work will be delayed and you’ll get some reprimand from personnel department.
