Needless to say, I’m not quite there yet, but in time I hope to think nothing of all these little hiccups so I can focus on the important stuff.

Sin Receta: Home Sweet Home, or lack there of
http://sinreceta.blogspot.com/2009/04/home-sweet-home-or-lack-there-of.html

For example, some phrases that are common in GK:. 8220;Well, Manila says…”. 8220;Just tell me what to do…”. Our work in Gawad Kalinga is to empower the GK residents. But how can we teach leadership and self-initiative to the GK residents if the GK volunteers are uncomfortable with their own leadership and self-initiative capacities? Other challenges to building the Core Group:. 8226; Since these are volunteers and not full-time employees, we only meet once a month. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). This belove...
