Millionaire architect Marcelo Sanchez and his wife Jessica an interior decorator did not want a child of their own while they’re living an aristocrat lifestyle. Unexpectedly, Jessica was devastated when she found out that she was pregnant. She was forced to carry her child due to her husband’s family background and later, she gave birth to a beautiful girl, Alicia.
Alicia was raised by her nanny while Marcelo and Jessica had continuously kept themselves busy with their work they enjoy doing to maintain their high class lifestyle and never had put any attention to their one only child, but to push money into her purse and showered her with material things the best that money can get to mask their absences and the lack of moral support as a parent.
Few years later, Alicia realized she was an unwanted child and longed to be loved and at fifteen she met Christian, a handsome young man and both fell in love, but they split up after their short but happy intimacy with their difference–Alicia was too young to have a serious relationship and Christian was determined to concentrate his studies and wanted to pursue his chosen career that would take him four years in another island in Davao City, Philippines.
Despite of Alicia’s parent’s millionaire’s status, she moved on and found love from her old classmate Josef and after their friendship had blossomed into romance and got engaged to be married. And as their grand wedding was fast approaching, Christian returned after four years and never have forgotten the young Alicia to whom he fell in love with from the first time he set his eyes on her. His unconditional love remained and ready to rebuild his relationship with her. This put Alicia in a difficult situation not only to make decision between her two lovers, but also to endure all the pressure from her parents forcing her to persevere with the wedding as planned.

Great By Choice
$29.99Add to cartThe new question
Ten years after the worldwide bestseller Good to Great, Jim Collins returns with another groundbreaking work, this time to ask: Why do some companies thrive in uncertainty, even chaos, and others do not? Based on nine years of research, buttressed by rigorous analysis and infused with engaging stories, Collins and his colleague, Morten Hansen, enumerate the principles for building a truly great enterprise in unpredictable, tumultuous, and fast-moving times.The new study
Great by Choice distinguishes itself from Collins’s prior work by its focus not just on performance, but also on the type of unstable environments faced by leaders today.With a team of more than twenty researchers, Collins and Hansen studied companies that rose to greatness-beating their industry indexes by a minimum of ten times over fifteen years-in environments characterized by big forces and rapid shifts that leaders could not predict or control. The research team then contrasted these “10X companies” to a carefully selected set of comparison companies that failed to achieve greatness in similarly extreme environments.
The new findings
The study results were full of provocative surprises. Such as:The best leaders were not more risk taking, more visionary, and more creative than the comparisons; they were more disciplined, more empirical, and more paranoid.
Innovation by itself turns out not to be the trump card in a chaotic and uncertain world; more important is the ability to scale innovation, to blend creativity with discipline.
Following the belief that leading in a “fast world” always requires “fast decisions” and “fast action” is a good way to get killed.
The great companies changed less in reaction to a radically changing world than the comparison companies.
The authors challenge conventional wisdom with thought-provoking, sticky, and supremely practical concepts. They include: 10Xers; the 20 Mile March; Fire Bullets, Then Cannonballs; Leading above the Death Line; Zoom Out, Then Zoom In; and the SMaC Recipe.Finally, in the last chapter, Collins and Hansen present their most provocative and original analysis: defining, quantifying, and studying the role of luck. The great companies and the leaders who built them were not luckier than the comparisons, but they did get a higher Return on Luck.
This book is classic Collins: contrarian, data-driven, and uplifting. He and Hansen show convincingly that, even in a chaotic and uncer
