I've been wallowing in regret for leaving a career I've built to pursue a job that I thought would be more financially rewarding. Everything in your book really helped me put things in perspective, thank you so much. (K)
Your writing about pain, disappointment and hurt is something that I can empathize with. It's almost as if somebody read my thoughts and was able to put into words the sadness I feel. (V)
Very knowledgeable in matters about love and life.  It was an honor to know him and meet him… I am very grateful to God that He allowed me to cross paths with Sir Nelson. He is not only a speaker nor a mentor, but also a friend...  (M)
​Hi, I'm Nelson! Welcome to my site!

I'm a published author, speaker, and trainer. But what I love most is listening to people. It's because I do know that life can be tough, even downright unfair.  I have been there.

I can’t promise you solutions, let alone miracles. But we can journey together on-line and through the books, speeches and workshops I give about relationships, career and spirituality.

You talk. I listen. 

Writing to encourage

​I've published ten books to date. One of them, The Honeymoon Never Ends, won the 2012 Gintong Aklat Award for the inspirational category. Some of the anthologies I contributed to are: He Says, She Says and What God Says (with Dr. Harold Sala), Legacy: From One Man to Another, and Passion and Power: Pulpit Messages from the Filipino Heart.

​I also penned a Sunday column of the Philippine STAR, 'Career Roadmap' for nine strong years, and contributed to periodicals and magazines such as Evangelicals Today, Business Mirror, People’s Journal Tonight, Light Touch, MOMS and FamilyWise.  
A practical book that will help you discover yourself, find happiness in what you do, and make a lasting difference to your life and others.

​It seems every office has the resident gossiper who flitters from cubicle to cubicle spreading tidbits of information.

​How could a tender shoot burst out of solid concrete? It actually didn’t. But if we find ourselves in a difficult situation, it teaches us three valuable lessons that will help us grow through the cracks of opportunity. And look forward to become a sight to behold.

​Are you groaning (again) at the prospect of going to work? Is your job something you are enduring rather than enjoying? Perhaps your mantra is “If only I have the right job, I will be happy.” This is the paradox of job happiness. Don’t expect your job to make you happy. Rather, do your job to give value to others and happiness will follow.

​Remember Frozen? Time was when people were belting Let It Go, be it off-key videoke or professional cover. But I would disagree with Queen Elsa. There are things we really can’t let go. Take our past, for instance. Motivational speakers and counselors would tell us to “let go” of what we don’t like about our personal histories.

​Nobody wants to be under quarantine. But it doesn’t mean that there’s nothing you can do about it. Here are three tips to keep making the most out of it. Quarantine gives us the gift of downtime. Use this gift wisely. Write down, review and implement your goals. Do incremental steps geared towards improving your value. Indulge in special projects that will give you a sense of fulfillment.

​Has someone at work let you down? Has it made you wonder why you should even bother being kind to people? If so, I wrote this article for you. Let's continue to bother.
