All of Us have the Right To Be Rich
I've written this blog to share my insights on my quest towards richness and abundance in life. I'm a Certified Public Accountant by profession and a Real Estate Broker with passion. Currently, I am engaged in Real Estate Selling and Marketing. As I've read books about wealth and success, as I watched seminars on how to become rich, I've realized that All of us have the power and right to be rich. We just need to think and act in a certain way towards achieving it.
I will be writing articles here for you to also gain from my experiences but before that, I would like to tell a story about myself, how I grew up and how I persevered to achieve the first stage of my pursuit to Financial Independence.
I grew up in a Poor family where both my parents didn't have any degree in college. My father is a driver and my mother is a housewife. I'm the eldest among six (6) siblings and I was the one who really witness the hardship of life when you are poor. At a young age, I took my life very seriously. I studied hard to get higher grades and to graduate with honors. I knew that time that the only way to escape from poverty is through education. I finished college with a degree in Accountancy from my alma matter Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP) and became a CPA year 2005. After almost 10 years, now, year 2015, My other siblings have already became professional also, 2 teachers, 1 engineer and the other 2 are still in college. I remember the time wherein my only hope is my Dream. My only strength is God. God will provide all the resources you needed to reach your goal. He will provide people that will help you. He will create circumstances in your favor.
I've realized that what I'm doing before is exactly the things that the successful people are doing, having an end in mind, continuous dreaming, perseverance and holding on no matter what, will ultimately help you achieve what you want.
I've come across with various books to read like Think and Grow Rich of Napoleon Hills, Rich Dad Poor Dad of Robert Kiyosaki, 21 Secrets of Self Made Millionaires by Brian Tracy, The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace Wattles and many other books about success and wealth. I've got to study how Law Attraction works. I've found the right people that will help me, the right opportunity that will help me achieve my goals.
I'm not yet rich but I believed I will get there 5 years from now. My ultimate purpose is to help other people. Money is just an instrument in making people lives better. Money is not an end but a means to improve someone's life, providing scholarship, livelihood, charity works and other community events that impact the lives of many people.
At the end of the day, we need to become rich to be a channel of blessings to others. To be able to impact on someone's life so that they know that God is a God of Abundance.
Enjoy reading my blogs and I hope and looking forward that you will also strive to be a channel of blessings to others.
