True Wealth Secret 2 - Having Dreams

The next step to becoming truly rich is for the most exciting. And that is listing your dreams. Yup, your long forgotten dreams; you need them to be truly rich.

I believe every person has a dream that is so strong that just by thinking about it we are empowered, focused, and becoming brave men.

Remember when we were young? We had dreams that were so strong that everyday we would pretend that it was real. We imagine ourselves to be that person and we think in our mind that we are already living this hero’s life.

The problem is when we grew up reality got to us. We started thinking that we should be real stop dreaming. So today, I remind you that in tandem with having a strong emotional why is having strong dreams as well.

The challenge with dreams is you have to pin point your real God given dreams. I believe that we are all made to fulfill a purpose on this earth. So our dreams were implanted by God on our hearts to bless this beautiful earth more.

On the our next truly rich post I will share to you how you can easily pinpoint dreams.  

My Examples of Emotional Whys that You Can Relate

As we discussed on my last post, I challenged you to list down your emotional why, so for today I will share to you examples of my emotional whys.

When I was young and handsome (now I am just handsome), I always envied my neighbors whenever they had new toys. As they bought toys every other week, my neighbors would so it to me but won’t let me borrow any of their toys. One day they should me another toy, a remote controlled car. I was so jealous that I think I begged them to let me borrow their new toy. But they would not let me. So I walk out and told myself, one day I will have all the toys I want.

Although today I no longer desire toys unlike other grown up men who still have toys like jet skis, BMW’s, large houses and many other toys for the big boys. But my emotional why in this aspect comes in a different form, which is providing for my kids. I don’t want the same situation to happen to kids.

Another example of my emotional why is health care. I still remember it vividly. My grandfather slowly dying because we couldn’t provide the appropriate medicines and therapy that he needed. Also when I my father was operated with his gallbladder stone, my mother went to a lot of her friends and relatives to come up with the money to pay the hospital bills.

This is one of the common emotional whys that I have. It inspires me. It reminds that I have to work smarter and harder everyday to achieve my dreams because I do not want the same situation to happen to me in the future.

So again, go and drill down into your own self and find your REAL and STRONG emotional why.

True Wealth Secret 1 - Finding Your Emotional Why

Today we will formally start with the actual lessons on Truly Rich Club Cebu.

As promise, I will teach you everything that I can on the lessons I have learned doing business, investing, and on how to win in all areas of your life. For me, only when I am winning in all areas of my life that I can say that I am TRULY RICH.

So that you just know, I am now officially a full-pledge father. I’m filled with so much joy and inspiration that I want to share to you all that I know about having real wealth.

So for today, we will have one basic lesson.

The basic guide in acquiring any wealth or any dream has to start with a very strong reason or more commonly known as an emotional why.

Before you even think of the strategies or steps in acquiring wealth, figure out first WHY you want wealth anyway. Your reasons should not be lofty. Reason like “I’m tired of working” is not strong enough. That kind of reason will never get you to wealth. Although it could get you started but once problems or difficult challenges occur you will end up giving up.

I suggest that you spend at least half a day to list down all the strong emotional WHYS that you want to become wealthy. Bring with you a piece of paper and a expensive notebook. Write down all those important reasons there.

Also an important note, write emotional whys in all areas of your life. In my case, these areas are my health, my money, my family, my relationships with people and friends, and most especially my relationship with God.

So go search for that strong emotional why.

Truly Rich Club Tithing - Blessing Number Four in Tithing

The fourth blessing that tithing has to offer us is Hunger.

How can hunger be a blessing?

Believe me, a person without hunger is a miserable person who lives a meaningless life.

Yes, hunger is a great blessing!

When you tithe, you stir up your hunger within you.

Last week, someone asked me, “Bo, you’re a entrepreneur and a missionary. If you were only an entrepreneur, you’d probably be ten times richer!”

The answer is a resounding No! If I wasn’t a missionary, I’d be ten times poorer. Because if I wasn’t a missionary, I wouldn’t have had the great hunger I have today.

Here’s my guess: After the initial success of my businesses, I would have remained complacent. I’d tell myself, “Why earn more? Why work harder?” There was no purpose.

But because my goal was to raise money for my ministry, this hunger drove me to earn more.

I’m truly rich now because I tithe—and give more than my tithe.

And I have so many dreams for God’s work. These dreams fuel my hunger.

I have met people who have earned a lot of money and have lost their passion for life. Because they have lost their hunger. Their dreams have been fulfilled and they have no new dreams.

But that’s because they only think of themselves.

Two weeks ago, I told my audience, “I’ve got bad news, good news, and bad news. Bad news: My accountant says it’ll take lots of money to make our dream of building 1000 Feasts come true. Good news: We now have all the money we need to build 1000 Feasts. Praise God! And finally, here’s the Bad news: All that money is still in your pockets.”

I believe that if Catholics start tithing, we’ll have all the money to do God’s work.

Third Blessing in Tithing is Holiness - Grow Your Wealth

The third Blessing of Tithing with love (more than 10%) is Holiness.

We should all be aware that greed is the number sin that made the devil contradict against God. So the number protection that we need is to achieve holiness through prayer and a loving tithe.

Greed will destroy you by materialism.

But generosity will detach you from materialism.

By Tithing, you gain freedom.

By Tithing, you gain a greater love for God.

The greek word of “Holy” is “Hagios”; which literally means “setting apart yourself for God”. Tithing is exactly that—setting apart a specific amount for God.

When I was a small boy, my father used an ancient, large, silver spoon. No one else could use that spoon.   It was Hagios for him and him alone.

It was so large, it could only fit in Dad’s mouth. More important, it was made of silver. Everyone else used cheap stainless steel spoons. But not Dad. He deserved the best.

Tithing is exactly like that.

Our Tithes are sacred. Our Tithes are Hagios. They’re set apart for God. No one can touch it. And we always offer the best for the Lord.

As a Truly Rich Club member we also need to be vigilant in being constant givers to our Church so slowly we can learn to be truly holy.
