Or what could be unfold in those dark times So many choices, so little time in life. This day or the so called the present time Are made up of hundreds or even thousand of choices to begin with. Ever wonder what it could be like if you had chosen the other strings of paths in your past instead of this one? Most of us would say I wish I hadn't done that and I hope it never happened to me. Then wishing back those wasted hours that dented everything and hoping to recreate a better version of it. Regrets sometimes haunt us at night. I too, feel sometimes left behind and confuse because of many wrong choices that were made in my past. But past is past, what lies beneath the dark hours are already part of my history. Yesteryear's, there seem no rays of light in hope for future. Shadows seem to take over forever. But today is the present and I hold the key of everything to trump victory. Time is constant and the most valuable friend that I have. Everyone possesses the courage to choose their own future So I made up my mind to make the blueprint plans in my life. Setting smart goals, carefully laying out the foundation and wisely choosing the right decision. If I failed again, I'll make sure I've learned from it and revise the plan until I'll achieve happiness and an awesome success in my life. If I could write now to my future-self and tell... "The journey is worth the waiting. Rest and behold the price of your success awaits at the golden streets of happiness." I may set foot only once in this world.
Along the way I've encountered many strange, mystery and magical things. And these persons that I've met, played a huge role of who I am. They taught me many valuable lessons either in a good way or in a bad way. They were tattooed in my memories. Holding them as long as I have my breath, In this journey called life. Some made me weak and some made me strong. Some made me cry, while others made me laugh. Some made me angry and sad, while some shared me their joy and happy thoughts. Others were born lucky, while some work hard and make them happen. Some were born with lovable parents, while some weren't, and some never know their parents or father or mother while growing up. Some were rejected and hated back then, while some found treasures of true friends. Others were lucky enough to have found their one true love, while some are still searching. Some were already married by now and have a family, while some are still single. Some are great by this time, while some are lost and still finding their purpose in life. Some are rich and wealthy by now, while some are still starting to build their wealth, and others are struggling with their finances. Some have forgotten me and others said they goodbyes. But I still remember those unique faces and sweet smiles. Some are still alive and are old already, while others are ligthyears away and had already gone. Sometimes we do the wrong things for the right reasons Failure and misery is just temporary It is up to God to mold, transform and sanctify us as we journey through this earthly life. Sometimes it hurts and pains me. But if I hadn't experience this, I would not have any colors in my life. I like to observe a lot.
Why some people are happy, wealthy and successful and while others are not. Successful people like and love what they do in their chosen road of career and business. They have the passion to fuel their desires. They list their goals in life, chase they dreams and build it into reality. They face their challenge, they fall but they bounce back, and emerge as winners. They have the heart, spirit and courage to prosper and progress. But unsuccessful people, on other hand, is a different side of story. They never chase their dreams, easily give up, and lose their hope. Wasted their time blaming their misfortunes to others - their parents, relatives, friends or curse the government. And some wasted their time and energy on their vices - smoking and drinking alcohol everyday, While some others wasted their time watching too much TV, and all they care is sleep all day long. I have known some people who are like this. They never like to improve their lives. They wake up everyday, doing same routine each day, from sunrise to sunset. But then, somehow, stories from these people, affect my real being, my personal growth. I have learned many very important lessons from them. The wisdom to think wise, choosing life, not abusing your body and the essence of time. Back in the past, I used to think also the pain and bitter of life what have offered me. I used to focus the wrong ones. But then, I can't change the past and I can't be a bitter, sad, and wasted soul forever. Too tired of negativity. Only I have the power to fix things. And we have only given 24 hours a day. And I guess somehow, life will teach you to be strong. I then slowly began to change my perspective in life. Seeing there's hope for everyday. Every time I wake up, there's 100% to make it better and fix things right. And I choose to live better than yesterday, after all, its not the end of the world. New beginning awaits. Then I started to re-discover the talent that God has given to me when I was born. The DNA of creativity. Each of us has given a unique special gifts. All I have to do is improve it, and use them well to my advantage, and start seeing life the way I have never imagine before. Doing what I love is the happiest thing that I like to do, even if the time comes that I'll age and become old. Because I now believe this is one of the secret ingredients in life: "You got to love what you do in order to be successful". Make each day a golden chances to explore opportunities by tapping your God-given gifts and potential. Focusing on the things that you are passionate about. Nourish and nurture your talent. Improve it. It's very important that you invest on a business or career that you are naturally passionate about. Because your creative ideas are your best bet for the future. Here comes another year again
A brand new chapter in life Waiting to be written In those blank pages of your life. Recharge Complete! Let's Rock and Roll 2016! It' s been a year already since I've made my website in weebly and made a soft-launch in Nov 8, 2014.
It's a long journey and a bumpy road to travel. And it doesn't matter how far I can go. As long as taking those baby steps one at a time. Keep on moving forward. Keep on innovating. Keep on inspiring. Thank you to all who have visited my site and appreciated my work. It's been amazing and a creative year. I'll strive more to improve myself, my work and my ideas. Happy Birthday to my Site! Cheers! "Never depend on single income. Make investment to create a second source."
"Someone's sitting on the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago." These are some of my favorite quotes that I like from Warren Buffett - the world’s greatest investor and one of the richest men in the world. THE JOURNEY: And here are some of the books that I have read. I never know they exist. None taught me to read books about financial or investing or entrepreneurship. Because no one has ever taught me about financial education, a kind of education that I have never learned in school. I don't know about you, but subject Financial 101 has never been offered and never been taught in our classroom. It's like an alien language in another world. That's why many graduates like me, a middle class, struggle in real world when it comes to handling money. OLD SCHOOL LESSON: Like everybody else, the famous tagline... "Go to school, study hard, get good grades, pass your board exam, make the best resume and find a stable job." This was the blueprint or the kind of programming that I had in my mind. Now I did got my job, and I figure out that somethings are not right. In my experience, I came to realized being just an employee is always the loser. There are too many to mention but I list down some of the many reasons are - You don't have control. You don't have any freedom. They can easily hire another and replace you. Government will take your hard earned money. They taxed you the highest bracket. If the company struggles, the inevitable happen - massive layoffs. Cases like this was never discussed in our school. That's why most graduates students like me weren't prepared in real life situation. In my generation of my schooling years, The problem during that time, schools never educate us what to do with our earnings. It never tell us what to do with our money. Schools never taught us how money works. Schools never taught us how to invest. The word stocks and investments in school was unheard of. Schools only taught us to be an employee and work for a company you never own. We were only taught subjects that were never really used in our career. I followed the advice of study well, getting good grades, passing the board exam and getting a decent job. But one troubling crisis for me is, I was poor in managing my own money, lack financial literacy and worst, never had a chance in investing at all. THERE'S A SAYING: "Give a man a fish and you feed him for one day. Teach a man how to fish and he will eat for the rest of his life." SEARCH BEGIN: So, I dig my own research. Hoping I could find the right path. Hoping someone could shed some lights unto me. And hoping to be able to satisfy the financial education hunger that I was craving for. I search topics about investing strategy in the web. Watch financial lessons in You Tube. I attend basic seminars. Read books about financial. Read biographies of rich and successful people. Read books about business and entrepreneurship. In short, rather than watching trash telenovelas, I educate myself. I invest in time and make an effort to learn and study all these things. As I dig deeper, I came to realized - Money is the common denominator we have in this world. Why not include subjects about money in our school and how to manage it. Money is important. After all, we used it all the time. Because money brings freedom — freedom to buy what we want, and freedom to enjoy the best things in life as well as giving you the opportunity to share and help others. At the same time, not worrying having an empty pocket while you age and retire a happy multi-millionaire. And I also thought, why not school teach us to build our own company, our own empire. Why not also include financial literacy in our school curriculum. THE REAL WORLD: I also discovered that you don't have a degree to be successful in life. The biggest companies in the world and world's richest men - Bill Gates - Founder of Microsoft, Steve Jobs - Founder of Apple, Mark Zuckerburg - Founder of Facebook, Larry Ellison - Founder of Oracle, Michael Dell - Founder of Dell Do you know one of these these guys? What do they have in common? That's right! They never bothered to get a college degree! Many tech titans in silicon valley don't have one. They are dropouts but turn out to be successful billionaires. Not everyone needs to have a college degree to be a millionaire or billionaire. But it is ingrained in our culture that a college diploma is needed to assure one's future. CREATE YOUR WEALTH WITH PASSION: Do what you love and start from there. Learn about business and the investment world. Become familiar with a variety of different investment vehicles and financial instruments, such as real estate, stocks or funds. Then choose one primary area in which to become an expert. Begin investing in that area. Somehow, I found a away to increase my wealth. Today, I follow the rich and successful people habits and how to manage their money wealth. Today, I invest in the stock market and toss some in mutual funds and I am very happy of the results of what I've accomplished. One secret here is to feed your mind with positive great ideas and empower yourself with the right mindset. You are what you think. Get financially educated and know the importance of money. SEEKING A BETTER FUTURE: I've seen people who are constantly in debt because of financial illiteracy. I've known people and heard their stories wasted their years moving from one employment to the other, forever searching for the "better job". I've seen people cried because they are force to resign in their job because their company is struggling and needed to reduce their employees. That's why let us help each other and help improve the lives of every Filipinos and help them break out of the circle of poverty and illiteracy. Encourage everyone and teach young kids to invest at early young age. Like Warren Buffett who started investing and bought his first shares at age 11, and bought his 40-acre farm by the time he was 15. Teach young kids to be an entrepreneur like Steve Jobs who started his Apple Company in their own garage. It has been said that we are the products of the choices we make. I have migrated my poor thinking into a rich, spiritual and wealthy thinking. Certain important decisions that we make early in our life can determine the rest of our life that we will take. And the next period in your history is being defined by your choice - I made my choice long ago. Now, It's my role to share what I have learned and help others towards the journey in attaining financial freedom. Hopefully I have shed some lights to you my dear reader and friends. Go get out of your cage of comfort zone and start creating your wealth. Build your own business and empire. Start investing in stock market now. Do it now, because time never waits. Help us spread and create a new breed of young multi-millionaire because everyone of us deserves to be both happy, rich and wealthy. Aking napagtanto
Habang ika'y lumalaki Maraming beses kang madadapa Maraming beses kang iiyak Malulunod at malalasing sa iyong problema Parte na ng buhay ang mga pagsubok na kakaharapin Minsan may panahong sumasablay May mga araw na nakakainis at nakakabad-trip At meron ring araw na magulo 'Di mo masasabi kung ano ang hinaharap Minsan maraming drama na parang isang teleserye Minsan makulay na parang isang bahaghari sa alapaap O kaya'y isang magandang awit ng musika Na masarap pakinggan sa ating tenga Mga panahong nasayang ko 'Di na maibabalik ang nawala na Nilisan man ng kahapon Nagbago man ang ihip ng hangin Mga ala-alang nakalutang sa aking isipan Nakaukit pa rin sa puso ko Marami na rin ang nagbago Marami na rin ang nawala Marami na rin ang nakalimot 'Di maiiwasan pagkat tayo'y mga tao lamang Parang kelan lang nung ako'y mag-isang naliligaw Hanap ang bagong liwanag ng pag-asa 'Di ko akalain na darating ang ngayon 'Di ko akalain na mag-iiba ang lahat Nabigo man ang aking nakaraan Unti unting natuto at bumangon Aking napagtanto Responsibilidad mo ang iyong buhay 'Kaw ang ng-uukit ng iyong kapalaran 'Kaw ang nagpapatuloy ng iyong kuwento Nakakapagod man minsan itong gawin Iikot ang mundo at magpapatuloy ang oras Maraming aral akong natutunan sa aking paglalakbay Karunungan na aking tangan-tangan Bagyuhin man ang mundo ko Natutong lumangoy sa alon ng buhay Hindi perpekto ang ating buhay Pero merong Diyos na marunong At alam ang Kanyang ginagawa Huwag na huwag ka lang bibitaw sa Kanya |
