Ready, Fire! Aim… aim… aim… I am now launching ThinkRichPinay.com!

I am a Think Rich Pinoy Franchisee. I began buying properties at the age of 28, that was last year, without money on my pocket. My mentor Trace had mentioned it bluntly, I was broke. Thanks to my mother, we have a family business that gave me a good financial record. :) That gave me the credibility to borrow or buy properties from banks, at least.

I am not a writer… still becoming one. :)

And why did I launch this blog? Because one of my mentors, Larry Gamboa, always tell me after every significant experience I had, (Oh, for a first-time Real Estate entrepreneur, almost everything is significant), “Make sure you write that in your journal… the situation, your learnings, and the things you did.” Larry is so fond of writing in a journal that he swayed me to try it. Now, I am not just fond of writing in my journal but doing Artist’s dates as well. He recommended to me the book “The Artist’s Way” (by Julia Cameron) which teaches how to form the habit of writing in a journal and treating ourselves on a weekly date.

I had been into difficult, intimidating and challenging situations, failed transactions, rejected offers, and successful transactions (in fairness). There is always only one thing he would recommend, “Make sure you write that in your journal.” Being the open-minded and trusting girl that I am, I followed his advice. But sometimes I couldn’t help but to think out loud, “Why?”. “For documentation purposes…”, he would say. But he hadn’t collected them yet anyway. I haven't read my past journals either so my Real Estate journal experiences are technically… there… just rotting in my notebooks. I know it would help me to look at these past events, especially my past success stories. It could remind me of my successful ways. But, as I look back and as I write new sets of experiences, I want to share my notebook over the net to all budding Real Estate entrepreneurs and other kinds of entrepreneurs. My writing then wouldn’t just be an outlet for clearing my head but also a good resource for you guys who are curious and riding in the same boat.

Some of you had read my mentors’ writings. Some of you had read about our sweet success stories. But what’s behind those successes are equally important or even more important stories you must know… Series of battles we had won. Goliaths of fear and blocks we had conquered. Maybe, you’ll learn something from how I (as well as my other co-franchisees) do things. We’re in the same boat. And maybe, you can also support me along the way…

Think Rich, Pinoys and Pinays!
