The CK Daily – Proof That Dedication Pays Off
Happy Wins-day, everyone!
Speaking of wins, I want to share one of the proud moments we witnessed last weekend. My cousin was invited to join a local pageant in our municipality. It was quite a challenge for him since he only had a month to prepare. He needed to build muscle and improve his physique. During the pre-screening, he still had some baby fat on his face and body, but after a month of consistent gym workouts, we were all impressed by his transformation.
Aside from preparing for the pageant, he’s also a student, a varsity player at his university, and works part-time at night. The dedication this kid has is unbelievable. He’s naturally shy (I can attest to that), but to help his mom, who’s been working so hard for their family, he decided to give it a shot. He said if he won, the cash prize could help pay for his tuition.
And after all that hard work, he won 2nd runner-up! It’s not the main title, but for us, he’s already a big winner, and we couldn’t be prouder. Not bad at all for a first-time contestant! He even received a cash prize that will go toward his studies, and some people approached him afterward, encouraging him to continue this journey because they see great potential in him.
These are the kind of people I truly admire, those who don’t just wait for opportunities but work hard to create them. If I had the means (and hopefully someday I will), I’d love to help him finish his studies. His dream is to become a civil engineer. And if not him, maybe I could help other kids like him, those who are determined to reach their goals in life but lack the resources to do so.
