ACTIVITY 1

STORIES TO TELL: WINNING AT LIFE

Life as we know it is not about candies and rainbows, it is full of struggles too. Living
life is like sailing in an ocean, sometimes the journey is smooth and calm, but there are also
days that the waves are high and rough. And, for everything that we want to achieve, we can
come up with a list of reasons why we cannot do it.

“I want to be a doctor, but my family is financially unstable to send me to med school.”

“I want visit my parents in Bicol, but I don’t have the time.”

“I want to travel and enjoy the summer by the beach, but I don’t have enough money.”

These are just simple examples of a person’s desire to do something that would make
him happy, but is easily confronted with the reasons why he cannot not do them.

Even famous personalities like Manny Pacquiao, Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach, and Dr. Rose
Zeta-Capeding have had moments they wished that they had more time, energy, and
resources. It is in our nature to have doubts and ask whether or not we have what it takes to
succeed at something.

Get to know more about Pia, many, and Dr. Rose. Read and analyze their life stories.

1. Manny Pacquiao’s Unbelievable Success Story Will Inspire You

It’s 1990 in the province of General Santos in the Philippines. Manny Pacquiao is 12
years old.
Pacquiao often speaks of his debt to his
maternal uncle, Sardo Mejia, who introduced him to
boxing after he dropped out of school. It was this
moment that would spark an unforeseen passion
and drive in Pacquiao to be one of the best boxers
in the entire world. According to his autobiography,
he describes watching Mike Tyson’s shocking
defeat to James “Buster” Douglas in 1990 on
television with his uncle as an experience that
“changed [his] life forever.”

In his hometown, he set up an open-for-all

boxing match and beat every opponent who came.
He was well on the road of transforming himself
Source: https://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/id/15132011/ranking-manny-
from a lanky school dropout to a junior boxing pacquiao-eight-division-titles

champion.

Despite his success, his family was still living in extreme poverty and hunger. They
became so desperate to the point that his father had to kill his pet dog for dinner. Pacquiao
couldn’t forgive his father for what he did so he left home, slept on cardboard boxes, and sold
bread on the streets just to make a meager living. At that point, he also used boxing and won
matches for $2 each, as a means of escaping poverty.

He soon moved to Manila and continued winning several boxing matches, but given
the increased standards of living, he wasn’t making enough to survive. He soon got a job at a
local gym doing gardening, cleaning and construction while boxing on the side. He trained
crazily all day and all night when possible, waking up the earliest and leaving the gym at the
latest possible time. Early on, his perseverance and determination to be a part of the boxing
world swayed him to cheat and add on some weights to meet the featherweight class
requirements.

As the fights got more serious, Pacquiao started getting more famous as well. He
would beat fighters from South Korea, Japan and Thailand and at the very young age of 19,
he won his first World Champion title by beating Chatchai Sasakul, the reigning World Boxing
Council (WBC) World Flyweight Champion at that time. The turning point for Pacquiao came
when he won against world-class featherweight boxer Marco Antonio Barrera at the
Alamodome in Texas with a TKO. After that fight, he was recognized internationally as a force
to be reckoned with.

Today, at 37, he is one of the most respected boxers. Despite his loss during the
Mayweather match, he still has won the hearts of many boxing fans both in the Philippines
and worldwide. His one-of-a-kind story will continue to inspire and it will always portray the
journey of what millions of Filipinos continue to aspire for.

3. A Love Affair that Got Me Close to a Great Doctor

I am blissfully married and a proud mother to three young men. My husband Leo knows
that I am also engaged in another love affair, a sweet and enduring one. And he approves, so
do my sons.

This love affair is with research, and it

started during my pediatric residency training. I can
still remember vividly the excitement and the long
nights, the discovery of meaningful developments,
the joy of reading medical journals, the eagerness
to prepare something thorough and relevant. The
excitement I felt continued up to my postgraduate
internship, my fellowship in infectious diseases and
it has lasted until now. My husband was never
jealous and my relationship with my sons never
soured despite this other ongoing and never-ending life/2014/06/30/1340085/love-affair-got-me-close-great-doctor
Source: https://www.philstar.com/lifestyle/business-

love affair. I could not ask for more. This is the best
life.
So last May 23, the family accompanied me to Vigan, Ilocos Sur to attend the 107th
annual convention hosted by the Philippine Medical Association (PMA). Being included as one
of the 15 finalists for the coveted Dr. Jose P. Rizal Memorial Awards is a proud moment for
my family. With them around, I was the proudest wife, mom, and doctor.

While individual citations were being read on stage for the top awardees for Community
Leadership (Dr. Purisima A. Bueno), Government Service (Dr. Maria Victoria M. Abesamis),
Clinical Practice (Dr. Bonaleth M. De Vera) and Academe (Dr. Estrella B. Paje-Villar), I never
expected that the final citation was all about the fruits of my other love affair, with research.

“Lead investigator for the much-awaited clinical trials on the multivalent dengue
vaccine…” “repeatedly cited by researchers here and abroad…” “served as the springboard
for the Expanded Program of Immunization (EPI) of the Department of Health…” “provided
the evidence and the science…” “extended her work to the communities…” “greater things to
come that will benefit science, medicine and the Filipino people…” “epitomizes the virtues of
Dr. Jose P. Rizal…” “…love of country and service to our countrymen…” All these brought me
back to the past 30 years of my medical, family and community life.

My love affair with research did not happen overnight. It was a journey that began with
a case presentation as a first-year pediatric resident, and a prospective study on how to
prevent early jaundice in newborns. My recommendation that a nursery should always be
facing the direction the sun rises so that a newborn can benefit from exposure to morning
sunlight won the top prize for the hospital’s annual research competition. This did not happen
once. It was a back-to-back win for three straight years. I got hooked. Who would not be? Year
1991 was my first immersion in dengue research. Twenty-three years later, I am now the lead
investigator of the country’s clinical trials for dengue vaccine, in the countries where dengue
is a major public health problem. It’s a vaccine the medical community worldwide is waiting
for.

5
 In Vigan, the Philippine Medical Association (PMA) bore witness to the conferment of
the award. The title comes with a specially designed trophy in the image of Dr. Jose P. Rizal
by National Artist Napoleon V. Abueva, a gold medallion, free trip to the United States to attend
the convention of the American Academy of Family Physicians and P150, 000 worth of
medicines that I can share with a civic organization of my choice.

Was it just a coincidence or pure fate that it is also the 23rd year of the presentation of
the prestigious Dr. Jose P. Rizal Memorial Awards? If the number “23” is a coincidence, what
a joyful one. If this is destiny, let me accept it with gratitude.

This award is a fitting tribute to those who have encouraged and inspired me to
continue my love affair with research — participants and their families as well as my teams in
clinical trials, officials of the local health, school and government units, the Research Institute
for Tropical Medicine, collaborators/partners and sponsors of my researches, Basaynon
Katiguban, Inc. and my town mates in Basey, Samar, who continue to show resiliency despite
the tragedy during the super typhoon Yolanda, the Philippine Pediatric Society and Manila
Medical Society for the recognition of my works and the nomination.

For more than three decades, I have never felt happier and accomplished than when
doing medical research. It is tiring but exciting, demanding yet humbling, intimidating but
empowering, exacting yet fulfilling. My work is my loving tribute to a great Filipino and a fellow
doctor, Jose P. Rizal, MD. (Dr. Rose Zeta Capeding is the 23rd Dr. Jose P. Rizal Memorial
Awardee for Research. She is currently the head of the Microbiology Department of the
Research Institute for Tropical Medicine (RITM) and head of the Dengue Research Group.
She is the head, Section of Infectious Diseases, Department of Pediatrics, Asian Hospital and
Medical Center.)

ACTIVITY 2

THE STORY OF THE TWO WOLVES

The following is an old Cherokee

Indian story that is enlightening and helpful.

One evening an old Cherokee told his

grandson about a battle that goes on inside
people. He said, "My son, the battle is
between two wolves inside us all."

"It is a terrible fight and it is between

two wolves. One is evil - he is anger, envy,
sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity,
guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride,
superiority, and ego." He continued, "The
other is good - he is joy, peace, love, hope,
serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence,
empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and https://otrazhenie.wordpress.com/2013/05/17/inside-each-of-us-are-two-
wolves/
faith. The same fight is going on inside you - and inside every other person, too."

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, "Which
wolf will win?"

The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed".

Knowing which wolf to feed is the first step towards recognizing you have control over
your own self.

Have you ever had thoughts, feelings or acted in ways that were unacceptable to
yourself but felt powerless to control? The purpose of this story is to help you find ways to
manage your mind so that you can live your life more in accordance with what your own
judgment says is best for you.

7
 As we grow up, we gradually become aware of the many things in the external world
which are largely beyond our ability to control. These include other people in general and most
events in our lives. Initially this is difficult to accept, but a more shocking realization is that
there are many things about ourselves that we seem powerless to control.

Some of these are our own thoughts, feelings, and actions which unfortunately can be
the source of much distress. It may be thoughts such as “I cannot stop hating my teacher for
not giving me high grades.” It may involve an emotion e.g. “My girlfriend left me and I cannot
stop feeling sad, lonely and unloved.” It can also be in the form of a behavior such as the
inability to control one's craving for food such as cakes and chocolates.”

But are we indeed really powerless to control our own maladaptive thoughts, feelings
and actions? The grandfather’s answer "The one you feed" is deceivingly simple. The results
of psychological research indicate that there are at least four important concepts or ideas
implied by the answer:

1. The mind is not the unitary entity it seems to us but consists of different parts. For
example, in the story there are the two wolves and the “you” that chooses between them.
2. These parts of the mind/brain can interact and be in conflict with each other i.e. the two
wolves fight for dominance over our mind and behavior.
3. The “you” has the ability to decide which wolf it will feed.
4. Having made a choice, “you” can decide specifically how to “feed” or nurture the selected
wolf.

The STORY OF THE TWO WOLVES gives rise to a number of questions. Let us share
our thoughts, feelings and opinions on the following questions. By taking time to do this, you
will learn to better manage your mind, feelings, and actions and consciously feeding the good
wolf in you.

Processing Questions:

Write your responses to the following questions in your journal.

• How aware are you of the two different opposing “wolves” operating within your mind, one
of which leads to pain and a diminished sense of life and the other to a joyous, meaningful,
and fulfilling life?
______________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________.
• When was the time you feel disappointed by the choice of behavior because you knew
that there was a more positive option but you just didn’t choose it?
______________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________.

8
• What ways or techniques or exercises do you use to strengthen yourself so as to increase
its potency to choose and hence control your life?
______________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________.

• In what specific ways do you feed the negative wolf?

______________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________.

• What specific ways do you use to feed the positive wolf?

______________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________.

Knowing which wolf to feed allows you to be mindful of your thoughts, feelings, and
actions. You, as a person, are bound to uphold the highest moral and ethical standards
because everything you do will surely affect the people around you. Based on the cognitive
triangle, what you think affects the way you feel and behave, what you feel affects the way
you think and act, and your actions affect how you think and feel. Thus, it is necessary that
you know how to manage your thoughts, feelings, and behavior.

DEEPENING

Manage Your Thoughts, Feelings, and Behaviors

The only things we can control in life are our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. If we
can manage those, we can achieve our goals and gain success in life.

To have this level of control, we need to learn about the science-based patterns behind
our emotions and thoughts, and how to manage them. If we know how our minds work, we
can be intentional about influencing our thinking and feeling patterns. We can evaluate reality
more clearly, make better decisions and improve our ability to achieve our goals. Thus, we
gain greater agency and the quality of living intentionally.

How do our minds work? Intuitively, our mind feels like a cohesive whole. We perceive
ourselves as intentional and rational thinkers. Yet, cognitive science research shows that in
reality, the intentional part of our mind is similar to a little rider on top of a huge elephant of
emotions and intuitions.

Roughly speaking, we have two thinking systems. Daniel Kahneman, who won the
Nobel Prize for his research on behavioral economics, calls them “System 1” and “System
2." But I think the terms “autopilot system” and “intentional system” describe them more clearly
and intuitively.

9
 The autopilot system corresponds to our emotions and intuitions. Its cognitive
processes take place mainly in the amygdala and other parts of the brain that developed early
in our evolution. This system guides our daily habits, helps us make snap decisions and reacts
instantly to dangerous life-and-death situations (such as saber-toothed tigers) through
the freeze, fight or flight stress response. While it helped us survive in the past, the fight-or-
flight response is not a great fit for modern life.

We have many small stresses that are not life-threatening, but the autopilot system
treats them like tigers. This produces an unnecessarily stressfuleveryday life experience that
undermines our mental and physical well-being. Moreover, while the snap judgments resulting
from intuitions and emotions might feel true because they are fast and powerful, they
sometimes lead us in the wrong, in systemic and predictable ways.

The intentional system reflects our rational thinking and centers around the prefrontal
cortex: the part of the brain that evolved more recently. According to recent research, it
developed as humans started to live within larger social groups. This thinking system helps us
handle more complex mental activities, such as managing individual and group relationships,
logical reasoning, probabilistic thinking and learning new information and patterns of thinking
and behavior.

While the automatic system requires no conscious effort to function, the intentional
system takes deliberate effort to turn on, and it is mentally tiring. Fortunately, with
enough motivation and appropriate training, the intentional system can turn on in situations
where the autopilot system is prone to make errors, especially costly ones.

Here's a quick visual comparison of the two systems:

https://cdn.psychologytoday.com/sites/default/files/styles/image-article_inline_full/public/field_blog_entry_images/Gleb-Table.png?itok=DltL-kRd

The autopilot system is like an elephant. It's by far the more powerful and predominant
of the two systems.

10
 Our emotions can often overwhelm our rational thinking. Moreover, our intuitions and
habits determine the large majority of our lives, which we spend on autopilot mode. That's not
a bad thing at all. It would be mentally exhausting to think intentionally about every action and
decision.

The intentional system is like the elephant rider. It can guide the elephant deliberately
to go in the direction that matches that of our actual goals.

Certainly, the elephant part of the brain is huge and unwieldy. It is slow to turn and
change, and it stampedes at threats.

But we can train the elephant. Your rider can be an elephant whisperer. Over time, you
can use the intentional system to change your automatic thinking, feeling and behavioral
patterns. In this way, you will become a better agent in terms of taking charge of your life
and reaching your goals.
