Tomorrow, I’ll start a challenge given by Tito Tony Hilado (he’s the father of Janmck). The challenge is to raise P1Million within 90 days. This is the first time Tito is giving this challenge to someone who’s not from Cebu. I’m blessed to have him as a mentor.
Anyway, here are my thoughts.
I actually doubt this challenge. Well, it’s indeed an impossible task if you think of it but a lot of people already completed this challenge. The examples presented in the book Cash in a Flash are the living proof that this challenge is possible. In fact, Tito Tony revealed to me that through his mentorship, some of his mentee already established their businesses during the first few days of the challenge. If they can do it, I can do it as well.
Tito Tony keeps on reminding me that in order to succeed in this challenge (or even to start this challenge) I need to have leap of faith. Also, he keeps on telling me that this challenge: One million in 90 days is not just economics. It’s not what I got (paper money) but rather what I become in pursuit of that one million.
Jim Rohn affirms this idea. He illustrated it with Judas Iscariot. Judas received a huge sum of money from the Pharisees but is he happy? No. He’s unhappy. He’s unhappy because of what he became after he gets the money. He became a betrayer. After he realized this, he tried to give it back to the Pharisees but they won’t accept it. He’s unhappy with himself that’s why he committed suicide by hanging himself.
Is this a success story? Definitely not!
Therefore, it’s not all about the money. It’s what we’ll become in pursuit of what we want.
I’m excited for tomorrow!
