Pera o Pamilya? Do You Really Have To Choose?

Recently an old friend posted this quote in Facebook…

“Hindi importante and sobrang daming pera…ang importante may masayang pamilya.”

Please read the above sentence again.

Now, maybe 99% of us will agree on this sentence.

It reminds us that family should always be first and I agree 100%. I’m a husband/father first.

BUT…there’s also something wrong with that quote.

In English term it’s called “presupposition.”

Meaning, there’s an implicit assumption. Meron syang assumption that having “lots of money” isn’t right.

It’s like asking you to make a tough decision between “money” or “family.”

My question to you is this…

Can’t you have both? Have a hefty bank account and a happy family?

Listen, you don’t have to choose between the two. Put your family first but pursue wealth and independence.

Oh by the way, who will benefit FIRST once you have wealth?

My guess your answer will be “My family. My kids. My close friends.”

Friend, be careful with what you read and what you feed your mind.

In my upcoming business course “First Steps To Freedom” I will not only teach you how to start a profitable business but also how to break all the limiting beliefs that’s holding you back.

Truth is, you already have the capability to become a successful entrepreneur.

But unless you replace these limiting beliefs with a positive new ones you’ll continue to struggle.

Last year I celebrated my 36th birthday in Boracay.

Guess who I’m with in that 4-day celebration?

Seven of my best friends. I paid for their plane tickets and hotel.

That is what having both money and a happy family.

You can have both. You don’t have to choose.
