With all the rapid developments taking place these days, we know that our life has become more complicated.

- Fr. Roy Cimagala

New challenges are coming up, requiring us to upgrade our knowledge of things in general and skills. It's indeed no joke to cope with all these.

In computer science, there is such term as “algorithm” which means “a process or set of rules to be followed in calculations or other problem-solving operations, especially by a computer.” Definitely we now need some kind of algorithm also to help us orchestrate the many and complicated elements that we have contend with these days.

We, for example, have to be prepared with an effective plan and strategy on how to handle these challenges. We have to have a good sense of priorities. We need to know the distinction between the essential and the incidental. We certainly need to have self-discipline and a good sense of focus, able to identify the real goals we need to pursue.
