Be Aware & Value Your Time

Just read Francis Kong’s article in Star’s December 26, 2010 issue. I’ve been longing to meet this person especially when I have been reading John Maxwell’s books. I want to meet an apprentice of his.

Francis talked about how time flies so fast. He concluded the article with an advice of seeking personal growth for a lifetime. I couldn’t agree more.

It’s true that the uncertainties would be very challenging. And the only thing you could rely on is your wisdom. With me, being exposed in business and the reality of sharpening leadership skills, uncertainties happen almost every day. It’s hard but I’m forever thankful.

As a young boy I envy friends who have all the things they want in life. I envy when they party, when they travel, when they have new gadgets and when they are super drank. Now I pity them. I realized missing out your youth in HS is a myth. At least in my case it’s a myth.

I’m 29 and I’m earning double in my business versus my paycheck in employment 2 years ago. My friends are all comfortable having the time of their life. They go out of town, they party and they go shopping spree. One of them already got married. After a year I know I will increase my income more than 5 folds my paycheck. That means I can go to Kyoto, Japan – one of the most expensive places in the world – every month for 5 days.

I’m doing well in business because of my commitment to personal growth. It’s not about business. It’s about growth. At age 65 I will have already fulfilled almost everything I want to do today. I don’t know with my friends. They have their time today. What would they have when they age?

But what’s more important than having your youthful activities when you are financially free up to forever is the experience and realization of your full potential. Do you firmly believe your environment today fosters personal growth? If it does, take yourself to the extreme. If not, find one.

Are you growing overtime? Or are you being stagnant? As they song “Next in Line” goes “What has life to offer me when I grow old?”

How would you know you can grow in an environment? It’s when you know you can grasp and realize the achievements of your idols or heroes. For me, I know I can attain the level of Bill Gates, to be the richest man in the world. That’s because I’m in business. If your hero is an actor, how can you attain his level?

The first step to really attain virtually anything and more importantly to keep it is to be financially free. I met a retiree doing what she loved then became broke. She really loves what she does which are acting and theatre arts but the financial challenges stop her from pursuing growth in acting.

I firmly believe in growing oneself in financial education since everything is really affected by money. In my experience, first gain financial growth and leadership growth and then anything that you really want to attain in life. You don’t have to follow this formula. You can create your own. My general advice would be make growth a priority. I promise you that you would wish you have started to personally grow years ago. But don’t feel bad. Just start today and continue to grow daily.

Good luck!

What an Out-of-School Kid Taught Me

Experience is the best teacher as they would say. Sometimes unexpected encounters will show you a path you never thought you would take. I never imagined I would find the meaning of my life in an event that I first thought was meaningless.

When I was a freshman in Ateneo de Davao University, I felt the rush of vigor and competition. I will be the best Electronics and Communication Engineering Student in my class. I had classmates that came from Ateneo High School. Some people look up to them like how people look up to UP Students. "I will show you what is the real meaning of excellence,"I would silently say to myself whenever I see them. Individual competition can really be felt and very evident. "What's your score on our quiz?,"some classmates would ask.

My impression when I first saw my college bestfriend was the guy didn't have guts and he may not be that witty. Maybe he could use some of my help. He was wearing a faded shirt and denims. His shoes was a bit tored down chuck taylor. He seats at the corner with his high-school friend and very silent. I was beside a girl and we were a company-not a couple. She's my elementary, high-school and yes, became one of my college classmates. I remember she's my crush when I was in Grade 1 and she kissed me when we were 4th year high school in our Christmas party when she gave her gift to me. It sometimes dawned to both of us if we were meant to be. But we also thought that we see each other too much already so we have to look for other buddies. She found two girlfriends to be with at lunch, and me with my soon-to-be bestriend and his buddy.

"Who do you think is the most intelligent in our class?"I asked my bestfriend. I thought it would be best to be friends with intelligent people. He pointed to an Ateneo high-school graduate. It turned out the guy he was referring was our neighbor back when I was just a little kid. They moved to another place so I never saw the guy when I was a kid and I just knew that we were ex-neighbors when my mom told me. I'm not comfortable approaching him. I'm stuck with the not so witty guys.

To my suprise, my bestfriend who is one of the not so witty guys became the top of our class. We became a great team. He influenced me to be the best. "You don't know that?"he asks me that question a million times. He asks that question when I ask him something I don't know and if I get a wrong answer in a problem. His high expectations sometimes offends me. We were also exclusive cheatmates - we only share answers with each other. We don't give answers to parasites. We trust each others' opinion and analysis only. We know that both of us can only get the right answers in a very difficult exam our best professors can create.

My future career was important to me. And I can see a bright future ahead of me back then. This was the meaning of my life. A life of being a successful engineer. But things changed when we have to go to a community of fisherfolks. Something started to creep into me when we did that when I was a freshman.

I don't remember how they define that minor subject. It was something like First Year Values Education. It's similar to Good Moral and Right Conduct something or Homeroom. And don't complain if I won't research for it since I know that the readers of this article are smart enough to understand. So let's just call it FYVE(First Year Values Education).

We were required to get a community profile of fisherfolks in the locality. I arrived at school early in the morning and I was really sleepy. It was 7:30 am. It was on a weekday. This minor assignment really got in my nerves. How would this help me in my career? I would prefer to be at home preparing for major subject quizes and requirements. Maybe this school just love to put a lot of minor subjects we don't need to increase our tuition. Thinking that we have to be there and live with the folks for a day from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm was excruciating. I was already thinking of the hassles at lunch.

Black sand and you can see the sea from the horizon behind the little houses of the community. Their little boats can also be seen banked from afar before the seashore. Three students will be assigned in each house to immerse with the community for 7 long hours. Their houses are made of plywood, bamboos and rusty iron ceilings. Me and two classmates were assigned to a family composed of a 40 something fat mother, 10 year old gay and two below the age of 7 children. We were introduced, got the community profile and 20 minutes later the mother left for work. So we became baby-sitters.

"7 hours is not that long. I will survive this day," I said to myself. Then I noticed one of my classmates started to talk with the children. Great! He can baby sit them and I don't have to do anything. I remember we also have to interview the children of their background. So I decided to ask some questions to the eldest which happens to be gay. "You're supposed to be in school. You're in the 4th grade, right?" He replied,"No, I'm still in grade 1. I have to take care of my siblings so I have to stop. When they start school, I will be studying again." "Where's your father?" I asked. "He left us." He continued,"That's why I want to go back to school so I can help my mom."

A typical conversation and a lot of similar sad stories but it started to get into me. Seeing them having fun playing despite their situation was like watching a tv soap. Why am I here? Would I trade this experience and do the assignments of my major subjects instead? No. I can do something for this children. Lunch finally came.

"Do you have a can-openner?"I asked the eldest gay. "We have a knife over there." I have to admit. I'm not good at openning cans using a knife. I tried but it was really embarrasing I can't even drive a whole. My classmate who first mingled with the children tried. He openned the can 3 inches. The 10 year old gay laughed a bit and offered to continue to open the can. He's the best in can-openning! We had a great lunch and conversations and around 3:00 pm we have to go. I thought we still have an hour.

"I want to go back here. I want to visit them again sometime soon," I told my FYVE instructor. "There will be more outreach programs before you graduate and in your Theology subjects," she replied. That was the first and the last that I saw the fishfolk family again.

I realized there is more to life than major subjects and assignments. I'm thankful my Alma Mater gave us a lot of minor subjects. I would say I got their message that we become man for others. Aside from learning how to open a can with a knife, to which I'm still not an expert, the meaning of my life began to show. I will become a great example of success and provide education to out-of-school children. I will also raise my children become great leaders of our country.

I'm glad I'm now a businessman. I can do more being an entrepreneur than just being an employee. My education made me a professional. The experiences that showed me the meaning of my life and created a passionate heart inside made me commit to be more and give more. It showed me to become a big businessman who can contribute more than just an employee who can barely provide for himself.

They say life is empty. It's up to you how you create something out of it. Listen to your heart and let it show you the meaning of you life. What does it tell you?

Tingnan Natin Sino Yayaman Sa'tin

Being at the top of the class does not guarantee life success. Having good grades will not mean it will give you wealth. It may give you a better chance though. But most of the time, it would depend on how determined are you to get that fulfillment.

One morning, when we were about to start our review class for the board exams, I remember my friend told one of our classmates that it would be hard for her to succeed in the boards since she's not that serious in her studies. "A ganun, oo mga cum laude kayo. Pero yayaman ka ba talaga diyan? Tingnan natin sino yayaman sa'tin!" She blurted out. My friend is a really naughty guy but he's one of the class achievers. The girl has Japanese blood. They have businesses. I was also one of the average achievers. What she said a long time ago somehow struck me. Would I really get rich?

After the boards, we passed and the girl was one of those who failed. What awaits us after school? The girl went to Japan. We were looking for a job.

A few years passed and I get to connect with them. The girl is working in an electronic company. The guy, I'm sure he has a job. Now, I'm in business. Are we all going to get rich? Who among us will be? Who will find fulfillment?

Learning more about money and business and gaining more experience and track record, there's one thing I'm sure, you don't have to have good grades or be very intellectual but you do have to be smart. What is being smart? It's what we call having common sense.

Making your life simple and thinking about it in simplicity is common sense. How are you going to use your common sense in getting rich or being fulfilled? How are you going to get it in the most simple ways?

Getting rich is simple but never easy. It's so simple it's so boring. You would wish you would do complicated science or calculus instead. But do you prefer to be bored and be rich? I do. Since I know I will be fulfilled if I get really, really, really rich! Or are you fulfilled right now?

I always get the lines like,"I don't aspire to be rich since I'm already contented having a simple life. And I don't want to aspire more since it would make me greedy." Great for them that they are already fulfilled with their life. How I wish a lot of people are fulfilled that way. But behind those words is dishonesty. At the back of their minds they complain for having just a mediocre life. If you are really contented, you won't hear any complaining and blaming inside your head.

If you want to be successful or fulfilled, start with being honest. Honest not only to the people around you but also to yourself. Are you really fulfilled? Or would you prefer to do more and give more?

I didn't settle for only having a secure job and live this life being secure all my life. I preferred to do more and give more to a lot of people. One of my business mentors said that when he became successful, he felt nothing. But when he saw one of his apprentices became successful, it got him into tears. How would you feel if you guided someone and that someone became a huge success?

Sino ang Yayaman sa Amin? It doesn't matter. What I wish is they are all fulfilled. For me, I will only be fully fulfilled when I have really given a lot of blessings to a lot of people. And one way to do that is to be really, really, really rich.

Entitlement Mentality and The Rich Mindset

Entitlement Mentality and The Rich Mindset
by Ludwig Rosete

I used to think I'm entitled to a lot of things-retirement, pension, love, attention, success, wealth, etc. I never thought that attitude will make me broke. Good thing I discovered how to have a rich mindset.

I was just reading my very 1st blog when I decided to create an account in my journey to the vast business world(http://ludwigrich.blogspot.com/2008/05/some-of-things-i-learned-in-my-first.html). I remember I was so inspired with my very 1st business book WHY WE WANT YOU TO BE RICH. I was so moved to take action by purpose - and by fear.

Today, I consider myself to be entitled to have huge wealth since I took action and I'm committed to create it. But I will always respect the rules in wealth like the 90-10 rule. I am not entitled to have my desired results if I didn't do whatever it takes to create them.

That's the difference between the poor mindset and the rich mindset in entitlement. Most poor people blame, justify and complain for they think they are entitled to be taken cared of by the government and the companies they work on. I do not blame them especially that they are not informed like what I read in business and in my experience. But to those of you have the capability, my advise is that take responsibility and learn more to be financially independent. This way, you can teach it to others how you did it. As you teach more people, you bless more people. That's a simple rich mindset advise for you.

HAPPY TIME 7:7

"HAPPY TIME 7:7"
The Poor work for Money. The Rich work for Time.
by Ludwig Rosete
www.ca2020.net

Some people say they are busy. When would that end? After 20 or 40 years? Then they look at their life only working for money. Do they find fulfillment, happiness or peace? Of course they do. They felt very productive all those years. What does it mean to be productive?

We have two assets: money and time. That's one of the things I learned in my first business book WHY WE WANT YOU TO BE RICH. I wish I have read it before I was twenty but at least I was informed before I'm 30. The authors said most people work to have more money and rich business people work to have more time. But, aren't we taught to work because we need money?

When I was younger and watched the television, I see rich people having no time for their children. They were so busy that their children were neglected and turned into drug addicts. I told myself, I will never be a businessman so I can have more time for my children and I don't want to be rich. Just to find out it wasn't always the case. I learned to never believe in movies.

People who have no time are busy people. They are not businessmen. They just couldn't stop their busy-ness. People who have drug addict children in the movies were either a highly-paid EMPLOYEE, who have a lot of responsibilities in the office, and SELF-EMPLOYED or the so-called FREELANCERS, who think they are businessmen because they don't have bosses. These people value MONEY more than TIME. Then some people think they value TIME and think that striving to earn more money is valuing MONEY. They never bothered to ask, how do rich people earn money but still have time?

The people who think they value TIME and are not rich are the people that fascinates me the most. A lot of my office mates told me that they do not want to be rich because they might become greedy. They told me that it depends on the person's contentment. Well it's true. I want to be rich because I'm not contented with the TIME I'm giving to my FAMILY, FRIENDS, DREAMS & ENDEAVORS. They thought I value MONEY. They never knew I value TIME. These friends go out all the time. They play paintball, go out-of-town, play basketball & many more. They think they have TIME. They have time to celebrate with their family and friends during birthdays and occasions. They were BLINDED that they have TIME. They never saw how much TIME THEY WORK FOR MONEY versus HAPPY TIMES.

I hated every time going out-of-town or playing with friends on a day-off then those days end and thinking again of work tomorrow. In a week, the ratio of happy time and work time is 2:7. Then some people say that's why you have to find a work that you think you are happy and make happy time 7:7. But actually, deep inside them, just fool yourself you are happy with work time. Is there a work that makes you happy? Yes, of course. Do they pay you with what you need? It's too rare.

Just imagine if you can have happy time 7:7. And that happy time is a REALLY happy time for you! What are you doing in your happy time? For me, it's to be with my family, friends, loved-ones, playing games and many more. And now that I can really see myself having more time, I would want to have more TIME to teach people also have their OWN TIME. And you can only have more time if you are RICH WITH PASSIVE INCOME. That is if you are aware that you can really create passive income.

What is it that you value the most? Is it working for 20 or 40 years? Or is it your time for your family? Or is it doing more good to others and not just working for your boss? What are your REAL DREAMS? Do you value your time for them? Do you take ACTION to BRIDGE to those DREAMS? What are those ACTIONS?

A lot of people are taking action to have more time. If you also want to know more about the benefits they got in taking action with us, you can contact me through my mobile 0917.6149.879 with your name and intention of knowing more.

Selling Cheap & Looking Down at Your Brethren

Selling Cheap & Looking Down at Your Brethren
by Ludwig Rosete
http://iloveabundance.vox.com/library/post/when-the-leader-awakens.html

Some people go into business and they prefer to sell or service at a lower price. Sometimes it makes them lose or break-even for a year- if they are lucky -or more. And they wonder why they lose. They think this way because they want to market in the "PHILIPPINE SETTING." Because they think that the "PHILIPPINE MARKET" wants cheap products.

PSP, Sony Vaio, Acer, Louie Vitton, Armani-what else are expensive? Or you think are expensive? Flat Screens and New Cars? What else? Why are they staying for the last many years? 3D movies anyone? Why do the businessmen who sell these products sell here in the Philippines? Why do they stay? What are they seeing in the "PHILIPPINE MARKET?"

When I was in College, the first time I saw my Public Speaking professor, I was so amazed and astonished at his personality and the way he introduced the course. A lot of us were inspired and motivated to learn more. My passion for public speaking grew more. It's even surprising how I got interested in the subject.

Back in Elementary, it's fine with me to fail my grades as long as I don't speak or sing or present anything in public. I remember I sang "Heaven knows" in our Audio-Visual Room and it stinks! I hate myself! But all of these presenting and singing changed when I entered high-school.

My Favorite English Teacher was also not good in singing. But she shared to us one story that she sang her heart out and many people applaud. How did that happen? It was all about breathing. It got me curious. Can I learn how to sing? My curiosity boost me in being more attentive in her subjects and guess what, I perfected the pronunciation recitation!

When I was in 3rd year, another English Teacher astonished me. Not only was she good looking like my 1st year English teacher but I remember she was so amazed as how I presented our group report. She said,"Ludwig was so professional." Thanks to my father he helped me construct our report and I really practiced and practiced to present it.

What does my presenting and reporting and singing got to do with the "PHILIPPINE MARKET?" I say it's EVERYTHING! It's all about CONFIDENCE! What do you think made me EXCEL? What got my INTEREST? Still don't have an idea how to CONNECT these things?

Selling Cheap IS Looking Down at Your Brethren. Every time you say THAT IS TOO EXPENSIVE FOR FILIPINOS, you are looking down at our countrymen. How dare you to look down at your once proud race. Again, what do you think made me interested in public speaking which was MY GREATEST FEAR that I could give up my Grades and My Future when I was still Young?

I was perfect in pronunciation- I get appreciation. "Ludwig was so professional"- I was APPRECIATED. My public speaker professor INVITED ME TO JOIN THE DEBATE TEAM-I WAS SEEN I HAVE POTENTIAL! It gave me CONFIDENCE!

What if I were the "PHILIPPINE MARKET?"

"That won't sell in the 'PHILIPPINE MARKET' because that's too expensive and they only want necessity" is the same as saying to me that:

1. I am not capable of earning more.
2. I can only earn at minimum wage or less.

"Food is the most lucrative opportunity in the 'PHILIPPINE MARKET' is the same as saying to me that:

1. My top priority is eating and that is the only thing I can afford.
2. I don't have to think about pampering myself because I don't deserve that kind of life.

What else are you saying about the capabilities of the "PHILIPPINE MARKET?" What else are you trying to say to me? How do you see your countrymen? What are their capabilities? Are you confident at your brothers and sisters? Do you give them confidence?

Believing in people starts in believing with yourself. You are part of the "PHILIPPINE MARKET."(If you are not a Filipino, you are invited to feel like one). Do you believe you can do great things? Do you believe you are an achiever? Do you give yourself CONFIDENCE? When you start having more of that, please do share that CONFIDENCE. Do you think you deserve to have more of it? Do you think people deserve it? Do you think our countrymen deserves CONFIDENCE?

"We should not depend on one man, we should depend on all of us. All of us is expandable in the cause for freedom and therefore I say stand up now and be a leader, and when all of us are leaders, we will expedite the cause of freedom"-Ninoy Aquino

I don't like getting people out of Death.

I don't like getting people out of Death.
by Ludwig Rosete
www.ca2020.net

We had a great Cashflow and Millionaire Mind Gathering Yesterday. All the participants had a great time and a lot of people realized more about money and their dreams. Majority of them was so happy that they could talk about aspirations and big dreams while in the event because these subjects are never mentioned or talked about in their homes. But what I love the most is what one of the speakers in the event said. She's a doctor and a member of our business community.

"I don't like getting people out of Death. I like getting people into life,"Doc Yoyi said. She has been doing surgery for many years. Saved some people. Saved some for a few days. Saved some for a few hours. She doesn't want to just save people for a few days or hours from their deaths anymore. She joined the community to bring LIFE to people instead.

Many of us longs to be a contribution. Some do it through employment. Some do it through volunteering. Some sacrifice the mockery, the constant discouragement of loved ones and neighbors and rejections while striving to be a huge success in business. They do business to create jobs, add value and give life to more people. They teach business and how to manage money as part of charity. They survive the constant negative batterings of others and failures by being with a team who will support them all the way to their success. This is one of the things I love the most in our business community. We want to give more life and light to people and support each other for success.

We will strive and stand strong to give more life and light to our countrymen. We will teach and guide people to success and we will represent the world that Filipinos are World-Class Business Leaders. These sacrifices is worth doing for Filipinos deserves better life.

Would I Ever Be A Contribution?

Would I Ever Be A Contribution?
by Ludwig Rosete

When I saw little children not going to school because of lack of finances, I began to ask myself, "What can I do for them?" At first I thought of raising my children to be great leaders for our country. I knew it would take a lifetime to achieve it - or maybe even more. I wanted a president from my descendants who will lead our country. Would it ever happen? If not, would I ever be a contribution?

"To share often and much...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

At least one has breathed easier because you have lived. I heard that from my favorite philo teacher. I made a commitment that day that I would do everything that I can be a contribution to at least one in need in my entire lifetime.

"Money or Values?"

"I've already decided that money would be more important than values. I study to earn money when I graduate." That's what my colleague said when that same philo teacher asked us what is more important to us. I silently told myself, values is more important to me.

"I commit to be Rich to be part of the Solution."

Everything changed when I read Why We Want You to be Rich. Both Money and Values became important to me. I can be a great contribution when I have more money. Money will just enhance who you are.

Do I still want to have descendants who will be great leaders? Yes. But I can do more if I lead leaders. I can give more if I have more. And it would save more time. I choose to save time to shorten the pain of our countrymen suffering from poverty. This is my path to be a great contribution.

Cheers!

Why do you think we Filipinos are smart?

Why do you think we Filipinos are smart?

A lot of people think that we Filipinos have a lot of negative traits and that it seems so hard for us to prosper. But that is about to be changed!

One day I created a forum "Yayaman ka pa din ba kahit sino ang presidente?" And I was so happy with the replies! A lot of our countrymen replied that we can really be successful whoever will win!

It's really great to know that a lot of us are starting to think independently from the government especially small and big businessmen and aspiring entrepreneurs. I'm so happy that we can really create a huge difference for our country by striving to be successful and provide more opportunities and I believe this one of the many evidences that we Filipinos are smart people and that we can become world-class people.

How about you? Why do you think we Filipinos are smart? What evidences can you share that we are great men and women?

It Doesn't Matter WHO the PRESIDENT is as long as He doesn't GET IN THE WAY

It Doesn't Matter WHO the PRESIDENT is as long as He doesn't GET IN THE WAY

It' fine with me whoever the president will be. But I actually prefer government officials that supports the business sector since businesses provides opportunities and jobs. As long as the president doesn't get in the way to our progress, everything will be fine. How do you move on as to whoever the president will be?

IF YOU ARE A POOR PERSON.

If you are a poor, you can continue to create money through recycling garbage. You can also ask to rich people for money. Just continue to beg and you'll be fine. If you can find a sponsor who will give you scholarship, that would be great! You may have the chance to be a MIDDLE CLASS. So grab the opportunity whenever the president will give you one. If you are one of those unlucky people, then just wait for the rich people to notice you and hope that they would pity you.

IF YOU ARE WELL-OFF OR MIDDLE CLASS.

How do you define a middle-class nowadays? As long as he is employed and can buy new cellphone, have time to watch movies, etc. can we consider it as middle class? Let's stick to this context as the minimum. If you are in this category you can still move on by strengthening your investments and you may also start a business. How would the president help you with that? How would he be a hindrance to you? Can't find answers? That's the point! It doesn't matter who the president will be. You still move on with your life.

What if you are a lazy middle-class then you retire at the age of 60 and you have the highest medical expense ever? How would you support yourself? Would you be downgraded as POOR? You can think that way or you can regret why you are such a lazy person and you really are going to be downgraded. What will happen to your children? Would they be like the poor people who would wait for scholarship and food from rich people?

What if we were lucky and the president will teach you financial literacy? Then you become good in investments and do good in business. Now you became a business tycoon and you can actually provide jobs for other middle-class. You have upgraded into a RICH person! Isn't that great?

Actually, you can start to learn financial literacy by buying books at bookstores or hardware if you're lucky to find a good one there. You can then find a mentor to guide you through business and become a business tycoon like him. You think it's a hassle? Well you can pray that you will be healthy all your life until 60 and hope you would not have the destiny like the lazy middle class as described above. I'll help you pray with that, just give me your full name and email to: ludwigmarkr@yahoo.com or text at 0917.6149.879 (LUDWIG ROSETE) then I'll give you personal prayer. I might also send you how you can increase your financial literacy even if you are lazy.

One more thing, well maybe you can also pray that the president will give more tax breaks for the employees since you are a middle-class. That could be the best a president I guess would be a contribution to you.

WE ARE RICH PEOPLE.

If you are rich being an actress or ceo or whatever, how would the president affect you? Well, he can give large tax breaks in businesses and investments so you would be interested to go into it. Then you bite into it! Then you become a business tycoon like the industrious middle class above! Now you can also provide opportunities! No more OFWs since you can provide quality jobs for them.

What if you are a rich businessman? Well you can teach ordinary people become like you and hand-in-hand you can provide more jobs and opportunities.

How would the president affect you? More Tax breaks or less would be the deciding factor. If less,you can always invests in other countries to save more taxes. Well, rich people are too smart and the government would be too stupid if they would lessen the tax advantages for businesses and kill the source of opportunities and chances for providing more charities and foundations.

NOW WHAT?

Whoever the president will be or the government will be, you can still become rich and not downgrade up to a poor person. Take responsibility and do not become like the lazy middle-class or rich person then downgrade yourself. Learn more how you can become wealthy and be part of the solution in creating jobs, opportunities, foundations, charities, infrastructure, etc. You ask how?

This Business is the TREND and it's not FOOD or RESTAURANT

This Business is the TREND and it's not FOOD or RESTAURANT.

People think that food or restaurant is a good business since people always eat. If that's the case, all restaurants and food business owners should be very rich by now.

Although the product doesn't really matter much if you know how to create excellent business systems. If you are an expert to that, you can actually sell ice to an eskimo.

Rich people are good in business systems, they also have the inside information as to what businesses are in trend and what will be the next trend. And they pass on this knowledge to only a few people. Just imagine people who are excellent business systems and knows the trend, that's one of the reasons the rich get richer. What if you will meet these people? What if you become part of their exclusive connections?

Create Abundance 2020 Business Community is a group of entrepreneurs, coaches and business apprentices that share such kind of information and education. We provide programs that teaches basic financial literacy. We also provide intensive training in creating excellent business systems. We also share inside information exclusive to members only.

DON'T KNOW WHAT BUSINESS to START?

DON'T KNOW WHAT BUSINESS to START?

I JUST WANT TO GET STARTED BUT DON'T KNOW HOW.

Restaurant? Internet Shop? Coffee Shop? Food Cart? How about Real Estate? Stocks?

POOR MINDSET ASKS THE WRONG QUESTIONS.

If you still asks what is the most feasible business to do, then you are still asking the wrong questions. If you are already an expert in business, then you probably have different questions. And asking questions like the experts do make you successful.

MONEY FOLLOWS GROWTH.

Want to know what experts ask themselves and become successful? They formulated those questions because they simply didn't stop learning. They also didn't stop in expanding connections and meeting experts that are better than them.

I WANT TO BE AN EXPERT, TOO!

If you want to earn 50,000 a month, go ask someone earning 50,000 a month. If you want to earn millions, go ask a millionaire.

Create Abundance 2020 Business Community is a group of entrepreneurs, mentors and volunteer business coaches are willing to teach anyone dedicated to be successful in business. We provide public programs for people who wants to increase their financial literacy. We also provide exclusive business training to those who want to start business. If you are interested, kindly send message to 0917.6149.879 (Ludwig Rosete) with your full name/occupation or business/age/email and why do you want to learn more about business?

WHO WANTS TO LEARN HOW BIG BUSINESSMEN GET CAPITAL?

WHO WANTS TO LEARN HOW BIG BUSINESSMEN GET CAPITAL?

Most people work hard and save money and use it for capital in business. I learned from my business mentor that it's not how the rich do to raise capital. He said that it's a waste of time and that you are losing opportunities that come by as you save money and wait till it's enough to start. The strategy he taught me was faster than working hard in employment and saving money.

I'd like to pass on this knowledge to people who are interested to start a business. But I would only teach it to people who are really decided to start a business. If you do not know what business to start, I can also guide you how start business that I have been successful and created results. I would also be glad to invite you to our exclusive business community where you can meet other business mentors and coaches.

If you are interested, kindly send message to 0917.6149.879 (Ludwig Rosete) with your full name/occupation or business/age/email and why would we teach you how to raise capital and guide you into businesses that we are successful and teach you how to do it?

LOOKING for BUSINESS TRAINEES

LOOKING for BUSINESS TRAINEES

ONE WAY TO BE SUCCESSFUL IS ASKING A SUCCESSFUL PERSON HOW HE DID IT.

Hi, I'm Ludwig Rosete of Create Abundance 2020 Business Community. The community is looking for people who wants to be successful in business. We understand it's frustrating to do business on your own or where to start if you don't have a business yet.

LEARN WITH THE GUIDANCE OF BUSINESS COACHES & MENTORS IN A BUSINESS COMMUNITY.


Most people who start business on their own move slowly and is more risky. But if you have someone who is successful and has a lot of experience in business to guide you then you don't have to guess what you should do or not do in order to get your desired results. And just imagine if you knew more than one business mentor. You will have a greater chance of doing the right things and avoiding the mistakes they experienced, thus, reducing risk.

ONLY WHEN DREAMERS COMMIT TO BE SUCCESSFUL WILL THEIR DREAMS BECOME REALITY.


It's true that rare opportunities are hard to find. Even if you have business mentors and business coaches don't guarantee 100% success all the time, thus, hard work is still required. In the community, only when you are successful in the tasks below will you be accepted to be the next lucky business apprentice or trainee. Here are the tasks you need to accomplish before undergoing the proper business program:

1. Sign-up for FREE to our website:

http://ca2020.net (Invited by Ludwig Rosete)
*Upload proper profile picture and sincerely answer the many questions provided(Contact infos are held confidential).

BEING a STEWARD

BEING a STEWARD

Do you notice the greasy and dirty street people? What did you do when they are hungry and thirsty?

Where do you eat? What do you drink? Did you ever felt hungry and thirsty?

I want to provide food and shelter for the poor. I would start by giving them FISH. Then slowly EDUCATE and start to teach them HOW TO FISH. How about the MIDDLE CLASS?

IF the MIDDLE CLASS would learn the RICH WAY of FISHING, there would be more people who can provide FISH and also TEACH HOW to FISH.

I want to be a STEWARD who PROVIDE and TEACH how to FISH. What kind of Steward are YOU?

I can be the kind of STEWARD that I want to be if I become a rich business person. That's why I joined CREATE ABUNDANCE 2020 BUSINESS COMMUNITY.

If I Give You 1 Million

If I Give You 1 Million

How would a person with a rich mindset use money given to him for free or inheritance to make him richer? Do you know people who inherited millions then lose all the money in less than a year? I'm sure you've heard lottery winners and government beneficiaries who also lost money and they're lucky if it spanned for a few years. The longest I heard was 2 years. Would it be great to have a record in the Guiness with the longest to lose lottery or free money? Or how about the shortest? What would you be interested to learn, to lose the money shortest, longest, or create more wealth from it?

I was seating at the backseat of an old Mercedes Benz. The driver-and also the car owner-was a businessman and a residential client of my cousin. My cousin, a property consultant, was on the front seat. We were on our way to Shakey's Tomas Morato. It was around 8:00 pm when we were on the road going to Quezon Avenue from the residential condo site area in Pasig. My cousin just told the client that we want to learn and do business. "If I will give you 1 million, what would you do?" The client asked me. "I would buy a condo or apartment or anything as rental property." I replied trying to sound as credible as I can to cover any hint of hesitation. "Do you know how much real estate cost today? 1 million is not enough to get you started in real estate business."

I did have an idea how much real estate cost at that moment. And he was right that 1 million would not be enough. When I was studying real estate back then, yes, 1 million is not enough. But if he asked me that same question today, I would reply differently and I would show him that it was more than enough.

If you are interested to know about the answer that I would've replied if he asked me today, sign-up for FREE at CREATE ABUNDANCE 2020 BUSINESS COMMUNITY website:

LEARN from BUSINESS MENTORS

LEARN from BUSINESS MENTORS

I started out reading books before entering the business world. Then I tried to gain experience by doing the real thing. I did business with my family.

Profits turned out small. My plans seem to take too much time before reaching financial freedom. I needed more information.

I looked for mentors and seminars. I also planned new business ventures. I also tried blogging while searching for answers. Then I was invited to the WEALTH COURSE.

I found a business community. Or did the community find me? Maybe it's LAW OF ATTRACTION. Instead of just finding a business mentor, I found a community of mentors and coaches.

Indeed it's easier to do and start business when someone who is already there guides you. It still isn't easy but at least the path is clear. All you need to have is determination and perseverance.

The community is a blessing in my life. I am now fulfilling my dreams. The dream of becoming an entrepreneur, having mentors, teaching financial literacy and contributing to the lives of people. You can fulfill your dreams, too. Join us in our public programs and gatherings. Just send your name, background and intention for attending at 0917.6149.879 (Coach Ludwig). Also visit http://iloveabundance.com to know more about us.

I know the dream of the community of achieving a prosperous Philippines would soon come true. If you share our dream, we are excited to meet you.

Achieve your dreams!

DROP-OUTS beat PHD's

DROP-OUTS beat PHD's

High- Schools and drop-outs beat professionals and phd's.

Look around from past to present, professionals and phd's that are broke - I know a lot of them. Billionaire drop-outs ad high school students earning millions. Pretend not to see these and you will encounter this message 5 years from now again. What will you do within that 5 years?

What did your credentials give you? Fulfillment and trips around the world? You can't admit that those are temporary and you have to go back to your busy life again.

Money can't buy happiness. Billionaires can have trips around the world and quality time with their families. THEN NOT HAVE TO BE PRE-OCCUPIED AFTER VACATION IF THEY HAVE TO GO TO WORK TOMORROW TO EARN MONEY. Money can buy you time and time can give you happiness.

How to be a billionaire? You can be an actor, sports star or an entrepreneur.

I'll Do Anything Just To Learn Big Business

I'll Do Anything Just To Learn Big Business
http://www.ca2020.net (Invited by Ludwig Rosete)

Before being really committed in doing business, I just thought of doing buy and sell and other small business stuff. But when I started to read business books, I realized I can really do big business. I tried to apply what I learned from books so I can gain experience and finally be in big business. It was hard to get into big business on my own to the point I'm willing to do anything just to learn.

I started with reading WHY WE WANT YOU TO BE RICH last January 31,2008. I remember I really want to be part of the solution and not part of the problem. Then I committed to really be in business.

I shared to my family the books that I read. We started businesses and learned together. The experience was not enough to take me off to big business.

I'm willing to do anything just to learn. Find a mentor, buy a food franchise or enter network marketing. I would do anything just to learn the basics of big business. I knew I needed to learn PEOPLE SKILLS and TECHNICAL SKILLS. People skills was the hardest to learn and the most important. I'm ready to anything just to increase my people skills which include leadership, communication, sales, negotiations, etc.

I found my mentors and increased my people skills and technical skills in CREATE ABUNDANCE 2020 BUSINESS COMMUNITY. The community is focused on the growth of the person. And when you grow, money follows.
