I’m sure you’ve heard of the pyramiding scam that happened in Mindanao and Visayas just recently. 15,000 people lost their money amounting to a total of P12B.
40% return on investment within 7 days?
How can you resist that offer?
Shift your focus from "get-rich-quick" to "give-quick-service.” Not only will you be scam proof, but you will also end up with a reputable business.
Build a business, an asset, or a reputation that offers real value or service to people. It's slow but better than get-rich-quick...
TO SOLVE A RECURRING PROBLEM
To solve a recurring problem, you need to get to the root cause of the problem.
Many times we look at the surface and forget to examine what's underneath it.
You may not have enough money, not because of your income, but as a result of overspending.

You're easily bored, not because of your job position, but maybe you're not exploring enough or stretching your potential.

TREAT IT AS SERIOUS BUSINESS
Having fun in what you do doesn't mean you're not doing "serious business."
This is true for writers, artists, musicians, athletes or anyone who 'seems' to have a much easier job.

You may have a job that...

Have you heard of the question, "Kikita ba ako dyan kahit wala akong gawin?" You'll hear this from people who wants it easy.
If an investment sounds too good to be true, then maybe, you shouldn't put your money in there.
I'm sure you've heard of the latest pyramid scam that just happened in Mindanao. (P12 billion lost, 15,000 families affected)
The promise of a big and quick return (what the banks or reputable firms can't offer) with no work required on your part is a sure sign of risk or danger.

SHOULD I PURSUE MY PASSION?
I rarely talk about "passion." Not that I am not passionate.
I am passionate about several things. My passion has led me to achieve major aspirations I never thought I could do. But with the same passion or my immature zealousness, I've also failed miserably in a few things I've done before. (a painful lesson)
What I've learned in life is that 'passion' isn't enough.
You can't just live on passion.
You also need wisdom.
Wisdom is the ability to make the right decision at a given time,...
