Still remember this?
“Nanay Tatay gusto kong tinapay. Ate Kuya gusto kong kape. Lahat ng gusto ko ay susundin nyo…”
That’s the generation before iPad, gadgets, candy crush, txt msg, etc.
I know it’s just a song. A simple kid’s game.
But, I’ll put deeper meaning into it.
Itong kantang ito ay kanta ng mga spoiled brats.
In our “pangong ilong” culture, it’s ok for adult children to still live in their parents’ house.
Minsan pa nga, may sarili ng pamilya pero naka-tira pa rin sa bahay ng parents nya.
We spoil our kids.
Unfortunately, there’s a drawback with this.
These Children think life is easy because…”nandyan naman si Tatay e.”
Or “Uutang na lang ako kay mommy.”
Do you get the point?
Instead of maturing early and fast these children are trying to take the easy way out.
Ang resulta?
They become irresponsible, immature, and lazy.
I have two kids, third one is coming this December, so I know the feeling.
But there has to be a clear line between “loving our kids” vs. “spoiling our kids.”
Spoiling them is like telling them “life is easy.”
Is life easy? ABSOLUTELY NOT!
We know that “Life is hard.” And preparing them in life is the best gift we can give to our Children.
Like in sports, if you train hard, the game will be easier.
And that’s what we need to do. Prepare them in life.
And that’s what many successful Chinese business people do.
Bata pa anak nila, pinagbabantay na sa tindahan.
That’s why many Chinese are good in business.
That’s why six of the top ten Billionaire in the Philippines are Chinese.
Not because they’re smarter than us.
But because they’re trained early in life.
Best thing in business is, you can still play the game even if you think you’re old or you don’t have much money.
You don’t need a degree, good looks, wealth, or influence to succeed.
It all begins with one small step towards your dream to become an Entrepreneur.
That small seed of faith. That small seed of desire.
That’s enough start-up capital to begin with.
Let me know your thoughts BELOW:
I want a steel fabrication shop business and dont know how to sell the products
So pano ba binebenta ng competitors ang products nila?
That’s what you need to know.

Good Day Jon:
I’ve been reading your article here in my email and I find it interesting, now in business I planned to open up a big one, that I thought of will generate possible income to me and my family same time to the people who will be with me. I’ve done the paper works, research and documentation but still it is hard to take off, I don’t know the reason, was it too big, too expensive, was it not the time yet I don’t know, I have been talking to a lot of people Investors, consultants, banks mostly given me advise but some are positive about it. It’s been a long time and I am still waiting for the right time if there will ever be.
What do you think I should do.
Hi Daniel.
I have a feeling that you’re in a “Analysis Paralysis” mode.
Really, the only way to prove a product or business will work is by going out there and sell it.
Feedback from bankers, friends, etc. are ok. BUT they’re not your customers.
The only valid feedback are from your paying customers.
So my advice is go out there and sell it.
Just a thought of this article about living with your parents, etc. First of all Chinese are close family ties, they don’t want to leak out from their clan any wealth that they have that’s why most of their marriages are fixed and most of them are still living with their family. That’s where we Filipinos got the culture of extended family. Second, if you’re living with your parents doesn’t mean that you’re lazy, there are just reasons and one of them is you’re the bread winner of the family even though you have your own family already. Third, there are Filipino children who are not spoiled but instead forced to work as early as their childhood. Now who’s lazy and who’s a spoiled brat?
Balak ko pong magtibda ng peanut butter at mushroom burger, paano ba magtinda online kase konti lang po yun kapitbahay namin?
I think you have a point and that’s why Chinese people are the one dominating the market (it’s only my opinion. I’m not saying that they are only people who can become rich. We too, can be rich if we learn from them).
Anyway, I’m excited to get your products Jon. It seems that you know what you are saying and doing. I hope I can buy those next month (August). 🙂

Kaya yung eldest ko I’m going to make it sure that she’s very good in her English and her imaginations. We have story telling at night before sleeping. Preparing her to be a blogger, a writer or a director and be a entrepreneur. I also let her do the picture taking using the cellphone. She will be more ready than I am today
I just recently retired (early) from airlines and have decided to go back to my home province n start a business for a transient 6room mini studio apartel. Plan to make each room aircon, with TV and with toilet n bath. Construction is almost 75percent complete…but I suddenly thinking if I make the 2big rooms as boarding house rooms (monthly rental eg. 1room is good for 4-5persons monthly rental is 5-6k).: And keep the 3(upstairs) as transient rooms on a daily rate. He front room facing the street is reserved for a business space rental…What do you think ??.. Aside from this I am building a small kitchen resto (not high end) with a Korean and Pinoy dish… Appreciate your advice please. Thank you.
papano makikilala ang sarili, sound so deep…hindi tuloy ako mka decide ng business na papasokin?

Hi Jon. I am an employee for 7 years now. Even before me and my husband is thinking of a business that would have a big income not only to cover our expenses but also to live a good life. But we really don’t know how and where to start. When I subscribed to your page/site my mind was opened to the opportunity on what having a business can give and my family. We are now planning to put up a PARTY NEEDS shop. I’m afraid it will not gain profit due to stiff competition as there are lots of people who is into this kind of business. What can you advise?
Good day sir Jon. Im planning next Year to put up concrete product with the help of friend who is now in exusting business. Pkease advise me more power. Congratulations to ur incoming baby. God bless
Hi Jon, yes I think your story is very true. To teach our kids to be mature and independent, we have to teach them early in life. Even if you can afford to give them what they ask for, trying to withhold from them is not much.
They will value things more if they don’t get them too easy.
Thanks.

Good day Jon, I’m a housewife interesado akong magkaron ng business currently nagtitinda ako ng coffee and hot water and breakfast food sa umaga maliit lang kasi yung capital ,gusto ko sana matuto kung anong tamang pagnenegosyo na may maliit na capital sana magabayan mo ako. thanks and more power.
sir jon,
alam ko po na alam na alam nyo ang ginagawa at sinasabi nyo. kasi nga po ito na ang negosyo ninyo for the past years as you said (business coaching and selling digital products- and you earned a lot of money).
hindi po lahat ng tao ay nakalaang magnegosyo. some are destined to rot in the corporate world- kahit masakit yan po ang katotohanan. kasi nga choice nila yun. i admit i don’t like my job but i learned to love it kasi it’s my bread and butter.
good thing is my desire to start a business is not waning. it’s always in my veins though i don’t know how to start.
next time sir pag open na ulit ang IBMC nyo i will try my best na makapag-enroll. i really want to venture in the e-book business na ina-advocate ninyo. sana bumaba na ang presyo ng master class po ninyo. hihi…
It all begins with one small step towards your dream to become an Entrepreneur.
That small seed of faith. That small seed of desire……

Sir Jon, I have just read your article and I am very much moved every words that you have said: these things are really true with us who are still under the cubicle world employees.
I am really about to start my online business but having my own website hinders me not because of the P 200.00 I am about to pay for it but I do not know how I will include my paypal account in my blog where I will put my e-book soon.
Do I mention in the message portion how my client will pay through paypal? And what if my other client will pay through credit card, how will it be deposited to my account? Do I need to have my credit card easwest also be included in my message to the one who will make my website?
Please help me sir Jon so that I will be able to start asap. Thank you and God Bless you always.

Good to be corporate slave na katamtaman ang sahod ko at ung sideline sa work baka puede ibenta ko mga product tulad ng eload at mga paninda tulad ng sitsaron, sigarilyo, candies etc..dito sa loob ng opisina na may 100 plus factory workers…Yung home or service online jobs via electronic gadget or laptop gamit ko ay maitutulong ba para makakuha ko ng additional income pa?
Coach Jon you’re just in time when I needed a stable business where I don’t need to go out of the house, a smart way of earning….. Actually, I have been hearing many good things about online business but I don’t know how it do it but it always lingers in my subconsciousness until I came across your post on FB …THANK YOU SO MUCH for being so unselfish, AND EVEN IF WE HAVE TO PAY FOR YOUR COACHING…the truth is you worked hard to reach where you are and that is understandable( I belong to your 8th batch now). More power to you Coach Jon …and hope I could be as successful as you are or even almost there I would be very grateful and happy.. God bless.
Your right Children still say home with us Parents even they are big enough… I provided everything to them and still think that nandyan naman si Papa… Kaya ayaw nila umalis sa bahay even meron na sila work… free board and lodging sila…sarap buhay di ba? So when they matured? I dont know….Spoiled kids ika nga sabi mo…Ang alam nila sa buhay ay isang masaganang buhay na walang problema…my point is up to when sila sa bahay namin? Tatlo sila meron na work.
Hi I have small business salon , paano ko pa kaya ito mapapalago
Hi Sir Jon,
I am an existing employee, though i have a lot of sidelines. I do really would like to join your coaching team however po part of my salary is still paying from my current debts.
Though just in case you have short course po for those who could not afford the whole program but will eventually be able to enroll once me extra cash na po or income.
Please advice po.

Hi Sir John,
I already bought one of your product, the Internet Lifestyle Business and it’s really an eye opener. Upon seeing that I lay out a plan for me and my wife on how to transition from being an Employee to become an Entrepreneur. The first thing I did to learn everything about online business is transition first from Employee to be a freelancer. being a freelancer gave me the time and knowledge on to learn and gave me idea how to really start this business with the help of you and sir Fitz Villafuerte’s guidance. I just not enrolled to your IBMC class yet since were still on the transition from Employee to becoming a Freelancer. once I begin my transition from freelancing to online business begin, I hope your IBMC is still there for me. Godbless and more power to Negosyo University.
