during the 3 day training, i met a lot of interesting people. It was also very interesting for me as i am one of the youngest in that group lol.. one was a guy who used to be a school back in Ateneo.
It was really nice because the people i met there are businessmen and women, some are into a career - a guidance counselor, a banker and the likes. They are like successful people but also into the process of learning more too.
That is the reason why i like going into such seminar, aside from the whole topic itself, the people i get to meet are full of new learnings too plus i met and got to know them and i made new friends! ( and connections

It always feels nice to meet many people and make new friends, especially if you are an outgoing person. But the problem is, most people don't have time(or so they say) in today's fast moving life. Everybody keeps running behind something or the other be it money, fame, power, etc. that they forget the joy of doing things together with family or friends

Sounds an interesting seminar to attend. Honestly, I only been to one seminar, which I tag along with a friend, but it wasn't what I expected to be. It was like a scam meeting from my opinion. They want you spend money first, then you get to sale those products on your own, and make commission from it. Sounds like not much of legit business meeting. So, what is your seminar meeting all about?

Attending such type meeting is a very good opportunity for everybody.
I always used to meet friends and others on any type of occasions.
There are more and more benefits by making use of this chances.
We can gain much of knowledge there by meeting certain age of persons.
We feel more while they are showing interest us.
More friends means more knolege i say for all irrespective of age bounds.

Errr.. There was one guy who used to be a school? heehehe.. I guess that's a typo there.
Anyhow, it's good to get out of the usual hustle-and-bustle of our lives and attend to something that's both refreshing in the body and the mind. I like seminars too, except that I don't get more that I would like to (because of budget concerns). But yeah, it makes us grow richer in knowledge and friends.
Good that you liked the experience. Have a great mylot experience ahead!

Well, I think that meet new people, in life, is always a good experience.
I speak for myself which my knowledge, is very limited. I, in fact I have often talked about here on Mylot, the fact that I friends, I only have three. On the one hand I say, better few but good. However, I should broaden my horizon and try to meet new people. Just like you did.

Made new friends that what make sense of your topic and so as learning more from different kind of people not where hecame and studied for the different of schools is only the status qou, of most of there students. Without your knowledge you might be more knowlegeable than the person your talking.. We got ifferent level of understanding but I admired people of their views not of their person as where they came from.
