Leadership-What Not To Do; Day168/08; Fine Tuning

But I have this against you: that you tolerate the woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess [claiming to be inspired], and who is teaching and leading astray my servants and beguiling them into practicing sexual vice and eating food sacrificed to idols.  I gave her time to repent, but she has no desire to repent of her immorality [symbolic of idolatry] and refuses to do so.   Take note: I will throw her on a bed [of anguish], and those who commit adultery with her [her paramours] I will bring down to pressing distress and severe affliction, unless they turn away their minds from conduct [such as] hers and repent of their doings.   And I will strike her children (her proper followers) dead [thoroughly exterminating them]. And all the assemblies (churches) shall recognize and understand that I am He Who searches minds (the thoughts, feelings, and purposes) and the [inmost] hearts, and I will give to each of you [the reward for what you have done] as your work deserves.  Rev 2:20 -23

Fine Tuning to Merida Lifestyle
I’m still trying to get used to the lifestyle here in my hometown. I lived here since childhood and I know that I loved this place.  When a person leave a place and go somewhere else, one acquires a different perspective. No longer you are satisfied with what you used to have because you had tasted a better life.  I’m talking about the simplicity of life, no AC, no hot shower, no TV, no internet, no WiFi, no personal car.  Me personally, I built a routine in Round Rock of daily cycling and swimming training and I could not execute it here that well due to resources or lack of facilities.  Other things I missed are the normal cycle of food intake of which in the morning, I took only a light breakfast and then Clif bar for lunch.  Here with my mom, the food cycle is like the military chow where meals happens at the precise moment ie. 7:00am breakfast, 11:30am and 0700pm dinner and if I don’t… I think the host will get offended.  So right now, my daily 2000 calorie diet is put on hold. 

My wife and kids left for Cebu already [they were here for 2 days] yesterday and been calling/updating me of their activities.  It sounds really fun and I know I will miss a lot of great adventures in Cebu. 
I chose to stay here in Merida for a few reasons;
1. To spend quality time with mom
2. To listen the breeze and the waves at pantalan
3. To swim anywhere where there is sea water
4. To meet old friends/relatives
5. To take pictures

If I have to go home today and looked at my objectives above, I think I’ve already done #1,#2,#3,#4,#5
