The Association of Southeast Asian Nations or ASEAN was established on August 8, 1967 in Bangkok by the 5 original member countries, namely, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand. Brunei Darussalam joined on January 8, 1984, Vietnam on July 28, 1995, Laos and Myanmar on July 23, 1997, and Cambodia on April 30, 1999. ASEAN has a total area of 4.5 million square kilometers. As of 2005, ASEAN had a total population of 558 million and a combined gross domestic product of US$876 billion.

The ASEAN declaration states that the association’s aims are:

• to accelerate the economic growth, social progress and cultural development in the region through joint endeavors in the spirit of equality and partnership in order to strengthen the foundation for a prosperous and peaceful community of Southeast Asian Nations; and
• to promote regional peace and stability through abiding respect for justice and the rule of law in the relationships among countries in the region and adherence to the principles of United Nations Charter.
  

However, ASEAN looks forward to the improvement of 3 major aspects in our community: the political, economical and societal aspects wherein a dwindling optimism is being heard about.

In its political aspect, the Treaty of Amity and Cooperation (TAC) states that ASEAN politics, security dialogue and cooperation should aim to promote regional peace and stability by enhancing regional resilience. Regional resilience shall be achieved by cooperating in all fields based on the principles of self- confidence, self- reliance, mutual respect, cooperation and solidarity which shall constitute the foundation of a strong and viable community of nations in Southeast Asia. Some of the major political records of ASEAN are ASEAN Declarations in Bangkok, Thailand, Zone of Peace, Freedom and Neutrality Declaration at Kuala Lumpur, and many more.

When ASEAN was established, economic and functional cooperation is attained. Trade among member countries was insignificant. Estimates on the 1967 ventures and the early 1970’s showed the shares of intra-ASEAN trades from the “total trade” of the member countries between 12 and 15 percent. Thus, some of the earliest economic cooperation of schemes of the ASEAN was aimed at addressing these situations. One of these was the preferential Trading Arrangement of 1977 which accorded tariff preferences for trade among ASEAN economies.

Societal Aspect improvement exists in ASEAN. Thus, ASEAN gives noble jobs to the jobless but educated people. Office works, business or doing online stuffs are some of a few jobs. Even non-educated people are given the chance as long as they have the skills and talents which would contribute to their country’s development.

Since Philippines, was once the host of the 12th Leader’s Summit of the 10- Nation Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), a lot of these blessings would fall unto us. Political improvement is expected to take place. The Philippines bountifully needs this one to break the barriers of war in the government panel and produces a responsible group of government officials. Another is the improvement of our economical aspects. Nowadays, our country’s major problem is poverty. Although people have jobs, still the salary is insufficient. The ASEAN greatly contributes to its improvement through finding ways to increase peso-dollar rates. Lastly, the societal aspect reaches its pinnacle of success through the abiding forces of members of the ASEAN.

To delve into a deeper sense, the Philippines is so lucky for having ASEAN summit in the country. It’s no longer a strange person living in a world of nowhere and following a labyrinth path that leads him to an eternal search. However, a man is now an ant which is entirely different following a one-way street towards his destination. It’s an odyssey which shoots life directly to the mouth. It’s a path that leads him to great improvement. And that is a path of the Philippines towards a bright horizon - the ASEAN Summit.

Below are 10 simple tricks that will help you create a positive environment. It will help reduce stress, make you more efficient, and overall a happier person at work and in your personal time.

1. Be Well-rested

Getting enough sleep is crucial. Many people watch TV until late at night and then are surprised that they have difficulty falling asleep. As relaxing it may seem to you, watching TV causes your mind to keep running. Instead get some rest not just physically but also emotionally. Listening to calm music and drinking bed time tea are two great alternatives to watching TV and eating popcorn. If this still doesn't help you get a better night of sleep, pay closer attention to what you are eating at what time. It is advisable not to eat any later than 4 hours before you plan on going to bed. Having too much food in your stomach close before bed-time will make it much more difficult for your body to find rest.

2. Get up With Enough Time

Start the day on a positive note! Avoid cutting your time too short in the morning. Starting your day off stressed on time will leave a negative impression in your head that will carry on throughout the day. Instead get up with enough time to shower, to get dressed, and to eat a little bit of breakfast.

3. Eat Breakfast

Eating a balanced breakfast will fuel your body with viable nutrients and sustainable energy. Avoid eating on the run, but instead take a few minutes to sit down. Stay away from breakfasts with too much simple sugars and simple carbs as they will cause a quick spike in energy at first with a crash shortly after that leaves you off more lethargic than before you ate. A few slices of whole-wheat toast with some lean ham and an egg or two are a great way to start the day.

4. Dress Right

Make sure that you keep your wardrobe somewhat organized. Finding your work clothes easily will make it much easier to get ready in the morning. Pay attention to the colors you are wearing. If a suit and tie is part of your business attire, use "positive colors" such as blue and green. Especially blue is said to have a calming effect on people including yourself. A blue suit and/or dress shirt are great. If you like to wear more color, then do this in your smaller pieces of clothing such as your neckties. A light green necktie will give your outfit a fresh and positive look that will carry over to your attitude.

5. Beat Traffic

Know what time to leave and what route to take to work to beat rush hour. Spending an hour in stop and go traffic will cause your unnecessary stress. Also consider other forms of transportation or car-polling with close by living co-workers.

6. Organize Your Work-space

When you leave work, make sure to clean up your desk. You will be glad the next day! Starting your day on a clean and well organized desk is an important part on reducing stress at the office.

Bring more life into your workspace with plants. Weather you prefer the look of cut bamboo on your desk, or a larger plant in the corner is personal preference. Research has shown that plants will help in creating a positive and friendly environment that has a more soothing effect on people.

8. Pictures Give your workspace a familiar face by bringing in a few pictures of people or things that are important to you. Having a picture of your wife and kids on your desk will help reduce stress.
