Okay, This is still not about the Richest Man in Babylon. Sorry about that promise.
I just can't let go of this thought that I have to write about it, so, please bear with me.
Everything must have started from something, right? And let us call that "something" with a very simple and plain word. Let's call it "desire" for the lack of more appropriate word.
Like anything else, our goal to be part of the Pinoy Millionaires Circle should be backed by desire - firm and strong desire.
Whether it is to be successful in your life, in your career or to be financially free (which we advocate here), the first step is to desire to be one. It is the desire that will drive us to that destination. It is the fuel that will make our motors run.
Our first series was about the Heart of Success where we talked about the more important things other than being successful. There we established the right mindset while we are reaching for our goals. The next series, as promised, will talk about how to take care of our personal finances. This is where I am particularly excited because this is something that I've always wanted to do. Something that I truly desire. Why? Because no matter what we read or hear from other people about how great the economy is, no matter how good or great our bosses or companies are, we are the ones who will remain to be ultimately responsible for our own finances.
Accountant by profession, my circle of friends and acquaintances are the people within the same profession. And here's what I've realized. Most accountants are so good in finances, that of their clients or their employers, but not of their own. Many are living on credit cards or paychecks to paychecks. Many are living the good life, eating great foods and dining on fancy restaurants, but deep inside, debts are consuming them. They are so good with other peoples' finances but they become ignorant when it comes to their own.
Now, it is my desire to share to more people the things that I've been learning. That is my desire.
If we want to achieve more or get some place higher, what we need is a burning desire. I will tell you more about it in the succeeding articles. For now, let me again disturb your thoughts. Are your desires enough to last forever or at least until you reach your goals?
Be More and Live More.

If only we will hold on to that dream, stand firm to our goals and re-fuel that desire, we may be shaken by trials and tests but, we will not crumble.
