Bakit wala ng "Donuts" sa Dunkin' Donuts 🍩

DUNKIN' na lang sila ngayon, napansin mo ba?

Here's why:

Nag invest sila ng $100M to refresh the brand.

but this is more than rebranding,

It's more of a business decision.

Dunkin' wanted to shift away from just donuts,

pero syempre nag bebenta parin sila nun.

They wanted to gear towards coffee and other offers ☕️

Infact binawasan nila ang donut flavors, at nagdagdag ng more coffee and drinks as options.

THEY WANT TO COMPETE WITH STARBUCKS!

Also, people are more health conscious these days 🥗

and when you think about Donuts, ang maiisip mo matamis. 🐜

Sugar = Unhealthy! ❌

That's why they offer sandwiches nadin. 🥪

If a very succesful 70-year old Multi Billion Dollar company is trying to reinvent itself.

Kaya din natin! 💪

Kaya wag mong sabihin na:

❎ "40 years old na ako eh."
❎ "20+ years na akong accountant."
❎ "Banker na ako all my life."
❎ "Ito na ang course ko eh."

You can always reinvent yourself kung gugustuhin mo. 💯

PS:
Medium Coffee nga pala to,
(Gaano kaliit yung small?)

A young couple moved into a new house.
The next morning while they were eating breakfast, the young woman saw her neighbor hanging the washing outside.

"That laundry is not very clean; she doesn’t know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better soap powder.
Her husband looked on, remaining silent.
Every time her neighbor hung her washing out to dry, the young woman made the same comments.
A month later, the woman was surprised to see a nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband, "Look, she’s finally learned how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this?"
The husband replied, "I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows."
And so it is with life… What we see when watching others depends on the clarity of the window through which we look.
So don’t be too quick to judge others, especially if your perspective of life is clouded by anger, jealousy, negativity or unfulfilled desires.
"Judging a person does not define who they are. It defines who you are." 💯 Love this! 😊

A reminder to all parents out there✍
Never tell your children:

"Ako ang nag-paaral sayo"
"Ako ang bumuhay sayo"
"Sana pinabayaan nlng kita"
"WaLa kayong utang na loob"
"Kapal ng mukha mo"
"Di ka magiging ganyan kung di dahil sakin"

Your children did not ask you or the world that he/she wants to be born.
You did! From day 1 until they get old. Your children will always be your responsibility.

You know whats next when parents think like their children owe them so much?
They'll treat you as an investment. That one day, someone will reach their dreams for them.

Do not ever let your children set aside their dreams just to fulfill yours!!

Trust me, your children know who have been there since the beginning.
They will not forget you, not because they owe you something.
But good parents deserve all the good things in life.

"According to Psychologists, there are four types of Intelligence:

1) Intelligence Quotient (IQ)
2) Emotional Quotient (EQ)
3) Social Quotient (SQ)
4) Adversity Quotient (AQ)

1. Intelligence Quotient (IQ): this is the measure of your level of comprehension. You need IQ to solve maths, memorize things, and recall lessons.

2. Emotional Quotient (EQ): this is the measure of your ability to maintain peace with others, keep to time, be responsible, be honest, respect boundaries, be humble, genuine and considerate.

3. Social Quotient (SQ): this is the measure of your ability to build a network of friends and maintain it over a long period of time.

People that have higher EQ and SQ tend to go further in life than those with a high IQ but low EQ and SQ. Most schools capitalize on improving IQ levels while EQ and SQ are played down.

A man of high IQ can end up being employed by a man of high EQ and SQ even though he has an average IQ.

Your EQ represents your Character, while your SQ represents your Charisma. Give in to habits that will improve these three Qs, especially your EQ and SQ.

Now there is a 4th one, a new paradigm:

4. The Adversity Quotient (AQ): The measure of your ability to go through a rough patch in life, and come out of it without losing your mind.

When faced with troubles, AQ determines who will give up, who will abandon their family, and who will consider su***de.

Parents please expose your children to other areas of life than just Academics. They should adore manual labour (never use work as a form of punishment), Sports and Arts.

Develop their IQ, as well as their EQ, SQ and AQ. They should become multifaceted human beings able to do things independently of their parents.

Finally, do not prepare the road for your children. Prepare your children for the road."

It’s already 2023 and I must say, words such as,
“itim ng kili-kili”
“Daming kamot”
“Itim ng utong”
“Daming pimples”
“Itim ng singit”
“Itim ng inner thighs” are not welcome at all. You are the “yuck” to these natural imperfections.

Never settle for someone who treats you like a backup plan. Someone who puts you second instead of making you a first priority.

Never settle for someone who picks and chooses when to answer your texts. Someone who makes you wait for a reply.

Never settle for someone who tells you how much you mean to them, but never proves it. Someone who says all of the right things, but never does the right things.

You should never be treated like a second choice.
You should never be a part of the background.

An afterthought.
You should be the first and only person they think about when they wake up in the morning.
You should be the person they can't wait to see, the person they're eager to text back.

Wait for someone who shows up on time. Someone who follows through on their promises.

Wait for someone who calls you up to deliver good news, because you're the first person they thought of telling. Someone who makes an effort to include you in their life.

Wait for someone who has an actual interest in what you have to say, not someone who wants you to be quiet so they can talk about their day. Not someone who is secretly thinking about other things while you speak.

Wait for someone who makes it clear they care about you, that they're willing to commit to you.

Please, never settle for someone who puts you second, because you deserve to be a first priority. YOU DESERVE GOOD LOVE. ☝🏻❤️

To the Man who's brave enough to Love me.

I am writing this letter in the hopes that in the future, when its God's perfect time you'll be able to read this. Let me start this by saying sorry, I'm sorry it won't be easy loving a girl like me who's mentally unstable. I'm sorry I am not the perfect girl you have always wanted

I have my flaws, I make mistakes, I have insecurities, fears and weaknesses, I have scars on my body and on my heart, I have inner demons. I just hope you'd be able to accept them. I hope you'll love me with all my imperfections.

There will be times I am super sensitive, fragile and emotional please don't turn your back on me during these times. There will be times I would think I am not good enough but please tell me I am more than enough for you.

There will be times I would doubt you or your love for me but all you need to do is reassure and show me, let me know I'm the one you really love. There will also be times I would ignore you, your texts,chat, calls or even block you but please don't give up.

I can be annoying at times, I can be difficult and stubborn at times but never get tired and never give up on me.

I've been through a lot, there are times I am suicidal, and if that happens talk to me. Please don't laugh at me when I tell you I'm welcoming death and instead of thinking 'this girl is crazy' just Help me.

Stick by my side and love me not just on good times but also during the hard times. I hope you will also fall in love with the suicidal-depressed-anxious-clingy-possessive girl in me. I hope you'll held all the pieces of my broken self and still call me beautiful.

Spoil me and I will spoil you more. Love me and I will love you deeper.

I don't give up. I'll never give up. I can keep my promises so please keep yours also. I love hard and deeply. I love selflessly and unconditionally.

Cherish me, I'm worth it and give me the Love I deserve.

Sincerely,
The Girl who deserves everything.

MGA LINYANG GUSTO MONG MARINIG SA BOYFRIEND MO :

“mahal ko yon, bakit ko siya ipagpapalit ng basta-basta nalang sa ibang babaeng gusto lang sirain relasyon namin”

“di ko na kilangan mag sinungaling, kilala ko ugali niya super sensitive maiiyak agad yon, ayaw kong nakikita siyang umiiyak dahil sa'kin”

“palagi siyang maganda, naka make up man o wala, maganda siya palage”

“sa'yo lahat ng oras ko kapag wala akong ginagawa, kung may mga times na busy ako update kita, ayaw kong mag overthink ka”

“maganda at sexy lang yan, pero hindi ko iiwan yung babaeng sinasamahan ako at tinanggap ako , sapat na siya sa'kin”

walang ibang gusto ang gf/wife mo kundi mahalin mo lang siya ng totoo, yung ganda magbabago, yung katawan na nakikita mo sa ibang babae kukunot din, isa lang ang hindi magbabago, yung babaeng nasa tabi mo mula umpisa 'gang dulo

“Don't change so people will like you; be yourself and the right people will love you.”

To find true happiness we must be true to ourselves, live our own dreams, and be proud of what makes us unique instead of feeling the pressure to follow the crowd.

When we are comfortable in our own skin, we are not fighting against or with anyone, as we've discovered our own true nature and are living in accordance with it. We are courageous enough to live our own truth.

The ancient meaning of the word courage is "tell the story of who you are with your whole heart."

This. Hits. Hard. 🖤🔥

The inability to receive support from others is a trauma response.

Your “I don’t need anyone, I’ll just do it all myself” conditioning is a survival tactic. And you needed it to shield your heart from abuse, neglect, betrayal, and disappointment from those who could not or would not be there for you.

From the parent who was absent and abandoned you by choice or the parent who was never home from working three jobs to feed and house you.

From the lovers who offered sexual intimacy but never offered a safe haven that honored your heart.

From the friendships and family who ALWAYS took more than they ever gave.

From all the situations when someone told you “we’re in this together” or “I got you” then abandoned you, leaving you to pick up the pieces when s**t got real, leaving you to handle your part and their part, too.

From all the lies and all the betrayals.

You learned along the way that you just couldn’t really trust people. Or that you could trust people, but only up to a certain point.

Extreme-independence IS. A. TRUST. ISSUE.

You learnt: if I don’t put myself in a situation where I rely on someone, I won’t have to be disappointed when they don’t show up for me, or when they drop the ball... because they will ALWAYS drop the ball EVENTUALLY right?

You may even have been intentionally taught this protection strategy by generations of hurt ancestors who came before you.

Extreme-independence is a preemptive strike against heartbreak.

So, you don’t trust anyone.

And you don’t trust yourself, either, to choose people.

To trust is to hope, to trust is to be vulnerable.

“Never again,” you vow.

But no matter how you dress it up and display it proudly to make it seem like this level of independence is what you always wanted to be, in truth it’s your wounded, scarred, broken heart behind a protective brick wall.

Impenetrable. Nothing gets in. No hurt gets in. But no love gets in either.

Fortresses and armor are for those in battle, or who believe the battle is coming.

It’s a trauma response.

The good news is trauma that is acknowledged is trauma that can be healed.

You are worthy of having support.
You are worthy of having true partnership.
You are worthy of love.
You are worthy of having your heart held.
You are worthy to be adored.
You are worthy to be cherished.
You are worthy to have someone say, “You rest. I got this.” And actually deliver on that promise.
You are worthy to receive.
You are worthy to receive.
You are worthy.

You don’t have to earn it.
You don’t have to prove it.
You don’t have to bargain for it.
You don’t have to beg for it.

You are worthy.
Worthy.
Simply because you exist.
