Shopping for a new home has become somewhat of a challenge nowadays ofr some, what with the mushrooming of different residential communities in the metro left and right.
But to a more sophisticated and informed home buyer, it's obvious that not all residential units are created equal. Some are just built from a foundation of unparalleled quality, effective functionality and dynamic style.
This is what has allowed Federal Land - owner, developer and manager of quality residential, commercial and retail developments - to continue building a place the Filipino can call home for more that three decades.
Suddenly, choosing a home to build a future for the family has become stronger.
Our President, Mr. Alfred V. Ty once said, "We treat real estat like banking, both are built on trust. Our clients can bank on Federal Land's credibility to deliver our projects. Our clients, then and now, can attest to that.
Lastly, "We will continue to build more homes that the Filipino can truly call - not just a house - but a home where the future of his family rests. We will remain to be the trusted developer, providing the excellent cu
stomer service and reliability we're known for."

- Search for What Works -
I love it when people fight against incredible odds to triumph over problems. Dr. Norman Vincent Peale once said, "You're only as big as the problem that stops you." I am thankful for men and women who were bigger than the problems that would have stopped and did stop so many others. The world got better right after they got better.
During the dark hours when my boss was out looking for my replacement, I started looking for articles about successful people in newspapers and magazines. When I came across someone local, I called the person and said, "You don't know me, but my name is John Doe and I've just destroyed the number one office in my company by taking it from first place to 36th in three months. My boss is looking for a replacement right now. Can I have lunch with you?"
These successful people not only took my calls, but agreed to have lunch with me. Some sensed the urgency in my voice; others just wanted to meet the person who could single-handedly wreak havoc on an entire organization. The one quality in every one of these success stories was an entrepreneurial spirit. Each saw me as a challenge - or at least a curiosity.
I listened and learned and immediately started applying the lessons. I have never stopped seeking out the advice and counsel of effective leaders. Take someone to lunch before someone else eats yours. Pay attention to what's happening in your organization, your industry, and your local business community, so you can learn with out experiencing your own disasters.
Work on yourself first. Your pursuit of excellence will set the agenda for everyonein your organization. Just before you drift off to sleep, ask yourself, "Whom am I inspiring by the way I do my work?" I didn't say, "Whom are you impressing...?" When they're inspired, they say, "I wish I did my work as well as you do yours."
You must lead by your example of excellence. Think of it this way: somebody, somewhere is going to get better because they're applying this principle.
Here are some ways to start your pursuit of excellence:
Learn from leaders around you: List the three people you admire most within your organization and the three you admire most outside your organization. They should be accessible to you. Take these people individually to lunch or, at least, talk with them about their secrets to succesful leadership. They'll enjoy telling you.
Put those methods and techniques to work: Apply what you learn to your leadership challenges. Give your benefactors feedback on how their methods and techniques work for you--and tell them about any innovations you come up with.
Focus on inspiring rather than impressing: When you impress, you rise above others. When you inspire, you bring them up with you.

CHOOSE CHARACTER
"A thick bankroll is no help when life falls apart, but principled life can stand up to the worst." - Proverbs 11:4 (The Message)
How a leader deals with the circumstances of life tells you a lot about their character. Crisis doesn't necessarily make character, but it certainly does reveal it. Adversity is a crossroads which makes a person choose one of two paths: character or compromise. Every time leaders choose character, they become stronger, even if that choice brings negative consequences.
As Nobel Prize winning author Alexander Solzhenitsyn said, "The meaning of earthly existing lies, not as we grown used to thinking, in prospering, but in the development of the soul."
The development of character is at the heart of our development, not just as leaders, but as human beings.
What must every person know about character?
Character is more than talk.
Talent is a gift, but character is a choice.
Character brings lasting success with people.
Leaders cannot rise above the limitations of their character.
This is worth repeating.
Adversity is a crossroads which makes a person choose one of two paths: character or compromise. Choose character.
