True Calling
Testimony by Sabino and Romula Montalla
Romula, or Romy to her family and friends, just loves to work. She never showed any signs of slowing down even after she obligatorily retired from her position as chief accountant in a private corporation. “I was an employee for thirty years who just didn’t want to quit,” Romy admits. As it seems, all those years of committed service wasn’t enough to burn her out that she still willingly accepted to do contractual work for the corporation. To top her flourishing career, Romy also periodically helped her husband and daughter supervise their family’s trading business. Romy, evidently, never experienced being in financial deprivation; her drive for continually working is not to earn more, but to simply make other people’s lives easier by putting their finances in order.
Satisfied with her responsibilities, Romy never dreamt of taking up another career, until she and her family started to enjoy the health benefits of E. Excel products. It was in those moments that Romy started to take notice of the company she has been a member of since 2004. Romy, eventually, did take another career. The only difference is that now, her career – or what she refers to as her calling – is actually putting people’s health and lifestyle in order through the mission of Nutritional Immunology. “I was impressed when I first heard that there is such a science that can radically change someone’s life,” recalls Romy.
Being the fastidious lady that she is when it comes to profit and gain, Romy looks deeply into the financial stability and marketing strategy of a company she involves herself in, and she’s glad to find E. Excel to be sound in both areas. Romy also knows that with the unflagging commitment Dr. Chen has in developing the products and marketing plan of E. Excel, she can be confident that E. Excel maintains the level of quality and professionalism she has always been accustomed to.
“At present, I have a growing number of downlines in Batac, Ilocos Norte, and Marikina City,” Romy proudly says, “and was able to travel outside the country for the first time by qualifying for the incentive trip to Hong Kong last year.” Romy could have easily considered her Hong Kong trip to be the best thing that has happened to her in E. Excel so far, but when she got awarded as Gold Master in the recent Circle of Achievers, she realized that being recognized on stage is equally momentous and thrilling as stepping in a foreign land.
People easily see Romy as someone who is meek because of her self-effacing character. This perception, however, changes almost instantly the minute she talks about her values at work. “Strive to succeed, be patient and never compromise your integrity,” Romy says in a firm voice. There is nothing mild about these values, because for Romy, they will allow any working man, including the one who works to change lives through Nutritional Immunology, to run and not go weary – even way past retirement.
