How To Win Your Financial Freedom?
by: Juan Filipino, Success Coach - www.juanfilipino.com
Whenever I have a PowerTalk, I always begin my seminar by asking the audience, "What is your dream?";
and not to my surprise, more than half of them doesn't have any clue of
what they really want in life and some can only have a mere spoken
words of their dreams and never act on it. Most Filipinos especially the
ones living below the poverty line have lost confidence in themselves
and no longer have the ability or the desire to acquire wealth or to be
rich. They were blinded, became contented, complacent and most just
threw their financial destiny in the hands of luck. More
and more became a people who just sits down and watches things happen
around them. No wonder a great number of us fell victim to poverty
easily and if we're not going to act on it soon, our next generations
will suffer a worse fate and struggle even more in life especially in
the areas of finance.
That
is why we need to keep our hopes high and tell all the Filipinos around
the world not to give up the fight for financial freedom. A lot of
people nowadays shares the same type of advocacy as we have. Driven by
the eagerness and the passion, we commit to teach, inspire and motivate
our people; especially in changing the ways Filipinos think and dream.
Education is the best weapon we have in winning over poverty and
ignorance.
The Need to be Rich.
The
reason why most people no longer have dreams or doesn't even care to
act on their dreams is because of a wrong mindset being programmed in
our subconscious by a society ruled by capitalists, foreign aggressors,
anarchists and oligarchs. The ways and means how we can fight for our
rights to be rich is unbeknownst to most of us and was even kept a
secret. The first thing we need to do is bring about awareness to
ourselves and start identifying our own sets of strengths and
weaknesses. If we really want change in our life as well as in our
country, change must begin with us.
Now
ask yourself, how can someone be rich? Unfortunately, most Filipinos
thought that in order to be rich, you must have lots of money and the
general idea of getting rich is basically having lots of money, then we
become desperate. But the truth is money has nothing to do with getting
rich. If you really want to have more money, all you have to do is to
add value into your life. You see money is just a symbol in measuring
wealth and it is measured not by the amount of money you make but by how
much money you can keep.
The
need to learn how and why we need to be rich in our own country plays a
vital role on our goal in crossing over to the league of First World countries by 2020. Otherwise, we shall remain forever a poor people, a slave in foreign countries and a squatter from our own lands.
So
whatever predicament you're in right now. No matter how hard it may
seem. Whether you have no money, no job, no education or just can't seem
to get out of the rat race cycle and in too much debt, you can
definitely still be RICH. Just add these following values into your life
and start the process of wealth creation, prosperity and abundance.
1. The value of having BIG Dreams.
Not
knowing what you really want in life or having not enough desire
towards achieving a dream can lead us astray and left in a state of
hopelessness. A man without a dream is like living a life without a
sense and a purpose; it's as dangerous as a timed bomb that will
self-destruct anytime and destroy everything around it. We all have
problems that we need to face, a Goliath that we need to slay and in the
absence of a dream we can easily lose hope, give up and nothing else to
look forward to. That's why we all need to have a dream and not just an
ordinary dream but a Big one. So no matter how big your problem is,
your dream should always be bigger.
2. The value of having a Positive Mindset.
Whatever
the mind can conceive, it can truly achieve. Having a positive outlook
in life can really make a difference in achieving our dreams and in
wealth creation. It's significant in shaping our future. Every thought
that develops in your mind shall utter every words that comes out of
your mouth. And in every words spoken shall form your actions. These
actions shall create your habits, and from that shall emerge your
character. The kind of character a person has dictates the course of
destiny you make in life. So if you want to be rich, start with your
thought. Always stay positive to get positive results.
3. The value of making a Decision.
Most
people never realized financial freedom in their life simply because
they never made a decision for themselves. If you have a dream, a
decision must be made by you. We can't take any action if we haven't
made that choice yet. Nobody else can do it, except YOU. If you really
want to be rich, the first person you have to convince is yourself.
Commit to decide and choose to be whatever you want in life.
4. The value of having Faith.
Faith
is a form of belief that is so powerful, unconditional, full of hope
and with unwavering trust. It is synonymous to spiritual strength,
self-confidence and belief in God. In the bible it's always been
referred to as a mustard seed, which happens to be one of the smallest
seed in this planet. Even if your faith is as small as that seed;
everything would be possible, nothing will be too hard, you can move
mountains and still make things happen. Always have faith.
5. The value of taking Action.
Are
you ready to be rich. Take charge of your life now and control your
financial destiny. Taking action is the last stage in the process of
wealth creation but it is the very first step you take towards financial
freedom. There are several actions we can do to begin our journey and
we'll be discussing furthermore about this topic on the next feature.
