“Love To See Change” Essilor’s World Sight Day Campaign

Here’s a campaign na hindi ko papalagpasin ikampanya, mainly because I have an eye problem (and so are my kids). And I know that it comes with an expensive price tag. So happy that Essilor is observing World Sight Day by launching a campaign called, “Love to See Change.” It’s an online program that encourages everyone to commit to having their eyes checked within the year.

“Love To See Change” Essilor’s World Sight Day Campaign

Essilor’s “Love to See Change” invites Essilor employees and the general public to pledge their commitment to have their eyes checked through the website, www.lovetoseechange.com/en/ starting October 13 through the end of 2016. For the first 100,000 users who will make a pledge, the Essilor Group will donate $1 on their behalf in favour of a local initiative that supports healthy vision for those in need.

Every year, Essilor actively participates in WSD initiatives for the promotion of good eyesight through various programs and events held across different countries around the world. In 2015 alone, the company has initiated an astounding 23,284 vision tests in more than 49 countries worldwide. This is in line with Essilor’s mission of improving lives by improving eyesight.

World Sight Day is organized by the World Health Organization and is observed annually every second Thursday of October. It is a part of a global action plan aimed at decreasing needless visual impairment, generating data about the magnitude and causes of visual impairment and encouraging nations to adopt eye health policies.

Be a part of this campaign and it starts with you taking a pledge. I already did!

Is Focus Still The Word? 2016 is Soon To End!

I am actually stuck in 3 worlds right now when it comes to blogging. I want to learn new things in terms of marketing. I do want to blog but I also want to mumble. A lot of stuff is in my head most of the times and it is really hard figuring out what I want and need to do. As I have said at the start of 2016, my one word for this year is FOCUS.

So where am I in that department?!? STILL STRUGGLING!!

Wait, I can’t even remember what I said back then. I don’t have a focus board to remind me (I really need to set up a working place and not squat in my husband’s desk). Revisiting my post, and here we are:

FOCUS on being grateful everyday. On thanking God for all the blessings, specially the gift of life.

FOCUS on our finances. On panning what to buy, not to buy and how to save for things that really matters.

FOCUS on being a better partner everyday. On making my husband feel how blessed I am to be married to him

FOCUS on teaching my kids the importance of family and instilling them positive family values.

FOCUS on my blog, specially on the contents. Stay on track.

FOCUS on inspiring others, giving nothing but happiness and noticing nothing but their goodness.

Where did the time goooo?!? We are on last quarter of the year and I am still here trying to focus!

On gratefulness, I felt that I improved on this a bit but still not the way I want it to be. I remember I want to post a Friday grateful thingy but never really got the chance to do it. I am grateful everyday but I wish I have been more expressive about it.

On finances, really?!? OMG! hahah in a way yes. I am no longer that compulsive buyer.. sa food na lang. It’s hard to say no to a box or two of Melona!!!

On being a better partner, yun oh!! Well, I have been getting what I want lately, so it must mean I am doing stuff that he likes.

On teaching my kids the importance of family and instilling to them positive family values, we are more focused now on their personalities rather than their grades so I guess I am doing good on this one too.

Nooooow when it comes to blogging, I do have goals for this year, like increase my FB page, IG and Twitter followings to 5000 and increase my traffic to 2k per day.. Peroooooo why it is sooooo hard! I want to focus on content too not this blabber kind of content perooo san ba nakakabili ng oras?!?

But when it comes to inspiring others, I hope I am inspiring a few and yeah, the mean me is starting to go away. I am more friendly (yata) and less suplada. Hopefully in the future I’d be more helpful to other.

Yun lang. And the blabbing ends here.

Got a one word post too? It’s time to revisit yours too!

PS I just have writte, focus on my writing and my grammar, I still suck on that part! Kaines.
