No matter how carefully you plan your goals they will never be more that pipe dreams unless you pursue them with gusto.

Choreographed
No matter what words are spoken,
This turmoil has been carefully arranged.
No matter what plans for peace are discussed,
The game of destruction is the same.
To get those to believe they are under attack...
There has to be a plan created,
To prove that with physical facts.
And they have already done that.
No matter what words are spoken,
This turmoil has been carefully arranged.
And carefully choreographed...
By those who are plotting
To control thought processes
'Delivered' to your brains!

Now, China, India have set goals. We're going to be able to review what they're doing. We're going to be able to challenge them if they don't meet those goals. We're going to pursue this anyway, because the President understands that our future lies with a clean energy economy. We've doubled renewables this year. There are millions of jobs to be had there, more energy security, so we're going to pursue this.

Gusto Blusto
Well you tried so hard
To change the story
It was love but it was nothing new
Just a question of a moments glory
Cos you want to take me for a fool
You told me I was such a fool
First you were kind
Then you were cruel
You taught me how to break the rules
And I said thank you baby
Gusto blusto
If your loving is so good
Gusto blusto
Id do it if I could
Gusto blusto
Id love you if you would
Gusto blusto
Do it! do it! yeah!
Well you think you really had the answer
But I never made a move on you
I dont even get a chance
To get whats coming
Baby that aint all I knew
Gusto blusto
If your loving is so good
Gusto blusto
I wish you understood
Gusto blusto
Id love you if you would
Gusto blusto
Do it! do it! yeah!
I give you good good loving
Sweet memories of you
You gave and taught me nothing new
Thank you baby
Gusto blusto
If your loving is so good
Gusto blusto
I wish I understood
Gusto blusto
I never break the rules
Gusto blusto
Dont you be so cruel
Wanna dance? dont sit there
Do it now

Carefully
You are free to chose,
that’s why
carefully use every word.
Carefully measure every step,
if you don’t want to be swept.
Carefully do all you’ve conceived.
and…if you want to be believed
and… to achieve your aim
it’s not a shame
to start carefully a new song.
And it doesn’t matter if it is long.
If you carefully do all that
you will never regret.

Kon Ako Mahimong Tore
kon ako mahimong tore
gusto ko nga daghang lumot
og mga tanom nga motubo
sa akong mga kilid
gusto ko nga aduna akoy kampana
sa akong kinatumyan
gusto ko nga aduna akoy daghang
mga bintana sama kadaghan
sa akong mga pultahan
ug gusto ko nga mosaka ka
sa kinatas-an aron didto nimo
makita ang kalibotan
gusto ko nga imong bagtingon
ang akong kampana
aron mabati nila
ang akong tingog
aron mangutana sila
kon kinsa na usab
ang ilubong karong adlawa
gusto ko nga mabati nila
ang akong kasubo
gusto ko nga mahanggab nila
ang hangin ug ang tambag
sa usa ka pari nga kitang tanan
mangandam sa atong
kataposang adlaw
apan sayod ka nga
dili ka na mahimo kay
ako usa lamang ka hawanan
ug ang akong hangin
walay gisubay nga agianan

If you go to work on your goals, your goals will go to work on you. If you go to work on your plan, your plan will go to work on you. Whatever good things we build end up building us.
Nurture Dreams
To grow, nurture dreams
Convert dreams into desires
Desires set the goals
Goals may be distant
Hard work brings distant goals closer
Determination converts them into success
Success further ignites the fire to dream
And once again the dreams become the desires

The Legacy Of A Dreamer
Someone said that I’m a dreamer,
And if that’s really true—
I’d like to dream the kind of dreams
That few dreamers do.
I would dream the fairest dream—
One that I could share
With rich, poor and so much more
Of people everywhere.
I would dream constructive dreams,
With new ideas on which to build—
Accomplishing elaborate schemes,
By labor and by will.
I would dream impossible dreams
And diligently pursue.
And I would work tenaciously
To make those dreams come true.
I’d dream away the hurt and pain
That sin has caused us all.
I’d dream away the clouds and rain
That linger from the fall.
I’d dream lofty, noble dreams
With aims and goals set high,
And strive to fulfill each dream
Before THE DREAMER dies.

Everything Is Going To Be Like My Plan
Duty must be fulfilled
But everything is going to be like my plan
People could lie to me
But everything is going to be like my plan
Pray may be often
But everything is going to be like my plan
Time flies uncontrolled
But everything is going to be like my plan
Destiny may not be cooperated
But everything is going to be like my plan
Other plan may ruin mine
But everything is going to be like my plan
Body is reaching the limit
But everything is going to be like my plan
The will should be strengthened
But everything is going to be like my plan
The anxiety may be doubled
But everything is going to be like my plan
Critics never disappear
But everything is going to be like my plan
Life is unfair
But everything is going to be like my plan
The way seems lost
But everything is going to be like my plan
Regret is gnawing my sense
But everything is going to be like my plan
The goal still far away
But everything is going to be like my plan
The future end may unseen
But everything is going to be like my plan
Source may not be enough
But everything is going to be like my plan
Things always change
But everything is going to be like my plan
Problem keeps occurring
But everything is going to be like my plan
World would laugh
But everything is going to be like my plan
Failure keeps happening
But everything is going to be like my plan
Memories may not help
But everything is going to be like my plan
Luck may test me
But everything is going to be like my plan
Love may not support me
But everything is going to be like my plan
Weather wants to rebel
But everything is going to be like my plan
The form may be different
But everything is going to be like my plan
Hope could fool me
But everything is going to be like my plan

Determined Mind
Goals are something we set ourselves,
each and everyday.
Sometimes we reach them,
other times we won’t.
The ones that seem impossible
we will reach them one day.
For nothing is impossible
no matter how much
we tell ourselves it is so.
With a little determination,
we will reach those goals,
no matter how high.
We will make them possible
the harder we try.
Someone once said
man would never fly.
The proof is in the pudding,
just look up in the sky.
And why did it happen?
It happened through the thought
of a determined mind.

Know Your Dreams
Claim you will not maim,
Those goals you have named to achieve.
No matter if your shoulders hold a heavy load...
Keep your motor fueled.
Don't be fooled by losers.
Wishing to melt away your 'cool'.
Keep that heat you've got,
Turned up and piping hot!
Don't let that boat you row spring a leak.
Or be stopped by a rocking that shocks...
Your eyes,
Away from the prize.
Keep alive,
Those dreams not meant to idle.
Claim,
You will not maim...
Those goals you have named to achieve,
Accomplish and to realize.
Keep alive your eyes and kept on the prize.
Know your dreams,
Are not meant just to idle.
Keep that heat you've got,
Turned up and piping hot!
And know your dreams,
Are not meant just to idle.
Keep alive your eyes and kept on the prize.
Know your dreams,
Can be achieved and realized.
Keep that heat you've got,
Turned up and piping hot!
And know your dreams,
Are not meant just to idle.
Keep alive your eyes and kept on the prize.
Know your dreams,
Can be achieved and realized.
They're not just yours,
To sit around and idle.

Promise Of Our College Time - Triolet
We posses a promise and dreams to pursue.
After our graduation, marry we would.
I have done my graduation, you have too.
We posses a promise and dreams to pursue.
To adorn the future, would long together,
Work jointly, to make the world better.
We posses a promise and dreams to pursue.
After our graduation, marry we would.

Where there is life, there is hope. Where there are hopes, there are dreams. Where there are vivid dreams repeated, they become goals. Goals become the action plans and game plans that winners dwell on in intricate detail, knowing that achievement is almost automatic when the goal becomes an inner commitment. The response to the challenges of life -- purpose -- is the healing balm that enables each of us to face up to adversity and strife.

Keep Your Plan Within Yourself
Tip from Prof. F. Mina, my masteral mentor UM, whose wisdom inspired many of us
If you have plan
keep it within yourself
otherwise
negative intruders steal
your dreams
If you have goal
set it within yourself
otherwise
evil corrupts
with itsnarrowminded tilt
Goals and plans
need not to be bragged
they're yet supeficial verbo
uttered in in the air
and keep this tip within ourselves...........

Gusto, Brio And Panache
Gusto, brio and panache
happy writers have, who dash,
while those lack élan and verve
scribe slower, fearing they may swerve,
which doesn't matter if you've brio,
panache and gusto, happy trio,
but does if you have no élan
or verve, not just an also-ran
but, what's far worse, an also-walker,
and, yet more horror, also-talker.
The ones who stand and wait to serve
because they lack élan and verve
won't slow down writers who are rash
and with their brio, gusto dash,
because panache provides the torrent
that those who're slow may find abhorrent,
for those whose writing style is speedy,
of gusto, brio never needy,
in flights of fancy won't be flustered
when they're panached and, brioed, gusted.
On November 4,1838, Stendhal, born Marie Henri Beyle, sat down at No.8 Rue Caumartin in Paris and gave orders that he was under no circumstances to be disturbed. The manuscript of 'The Charterhouse of Parma' was finished seven weeks later. As Daniel Mendlessohn says, reviewing a new translation by Richard Howard in the Modern Library ('After Waterloo' A new translation of Stendhal's masterpiece about a young soldier in Napoleon's arm, his aunt and her lover, ' The New York Times Book Review, August 29,1999) , though the swiftness of its composition with 'gusto, brio, élan, verve and panache' took a toll in narrative coherence the urgency of its style is masterly. As an example, he quotes: 'Here we shall ask permission to pass, without saying a single word about them, over an interval of three years.'

Tomorrow Doesnt Matter Tonight
You already made up your mind
Just who youre looking for and what kind of love youll find
Holding out for a dream
But I can see youre lonely, living isnt only a fantasy
I dont fit into your plans, but you can reach for my hands
Chorus:
Tomorrow doesnt matter tonight, Im holding you and it feels so right
I know you didnt plan it this way, let yourself go if you want to stay
Its all right, cos tomorrow doesnt matter tonight
Really hate to see you confused
I want no promises, so what have you got to lose
When you look in my eyes
Dont think about tomorrow, this feeling isnt meant to be analyzed
Why should you be all alone til your heart finds a home
Tomorrow doesnt matter tonight, Im holding you and it feels so right
I know you didnt plan it this way, let yourself go if you want to stay
Its all right, cos tomorrow doesnt matter tonight
(guitar solo)
(tomorrow doesnt matter tonight, tomorrow) let yourself go!
(tomorrow doesnt matter tonight, tomorrow)
Tomorrow doesnt matter tonight, Im holding you and it feels so right
I know you didnt plan it this way, let yourself go if you want to stay
Its all right
Tomorrow doesnt matter at all, Im holding you and it feels so right
I know you didnt plan it this way, let yourself go if you want to stay
Its all right, tomorrow doesnt matter tonight
Tonight!

Sana
Kapag ginagawa ay gusto

hirap ay hindi alintana...
Sana ay gustuhin mo rin
ang pagdamay sa mga nangangailangan
kahit na ba
may bahagi sa kanilang buhay
na hindi mo gusto.
