With nearly 4 days remaining, the boxing fight fitting Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao and Joshua Clottey is intensifying. The fight day is slated on March 13, 2010 (March 14, 2010 in Manila) with the two boxing fighters slugging it out at the new and big Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Joshua Clottey is a not so popular fighter so I have to do a little research to find out more about him. What I found out was a video series produced by HBO Sports entitled Pacquiao vs Clottey Live: Road to Dallas.

I have watched similar HBO Sports presentations before and this is very similar to their HBO 24/7 videos that they create as a preview to a big fight. Enjoy the Pacquiao vs Clottey Live: Road to Dallas video below:

I don’t usually believe in fortune telling or sometimes they call it predictions using destiny cards. Well, that’s before I met our outsourcing client who is an expert in this field. I will reveal his name in due time but for now, what’s important is that I’m quite impressed by the accuracy of the information I got out of his system.

Personality-wise, his system got it right when it gave me the following personality reading based on my birthday. Some of the information depicts what I really am while the others I have yet to see in myself. You got to know me more before you can guess which traits I have right now. :-} Here’s what the reading says:

I have been involved in sales before when I tested the network marketing waters. It’s quite tough during that time as the companies that I got involved in provided very little to no sales training seminars to help their sales force including me. Probably the best course I ever have in sales was just reading books of Zig Ziglar and Tom Hopkins. But these were not enough to bring me to a level that I dreamed as a sales person.

This morning, my friend randomly surfed the internet for sales training seminars just to see how much it will cost him today if he wanted to improve my sales skills. SalesDirections.com provided him a list of several sales training seminars that you can attend. Here’s several of the sales training seminars that I found listed on that site.

Another thing that I’m up to recently is I just participated in a Twitter Race? What the heck is a “Twitter Race”? Okay, let me explain.

One of the superstars that I look up to is the famous and highly successful basketball player Michael Jordan. I love not only his great athletic ability to create crowd electrifying shots and dunks but also his character as a person. On one of the self-development course that I took in 2008, I even use his character to portray on stage (we called it the “Star Theater”) what I wanted to be – not as a popular basketball player but to reach the level of success that he have attained or even just a fraction of it through his exemplary attributes. I shared this video on Twitter several days ago but I felt the need to re-post it here to inspire anyone in any walks of life seeking for the success that we all wanted in life. Here’s the 30-second Michael Jordan Success Principle video after the jump:

Hello! Welcome to the personal blog of Richard Fernandez and welcome to my world!

After a year of shying away from writing for a personal blog, I’m now back in harness. What prompt me to put up this blog? Well, I can name you some reasons:

1. My social network is growing and I need a home for my newfound friends to get to know me more. To date, I already have 101 Facebook friends and 11,607 Twitter followers. The number of my Facebook friends pales in comparison with my Twitter followers as I am not yet focusing much of my time there yet.

2. If you know me personally, you will notice that I don’t talk a lot. But that’s quite opposite online. I can talk, through writing, whatever is on my mind. I’m not a prolific writer though.
