T.alk is Cheap. Preview



"Talk is cheap. Learn to listen with your eyes. Actions do speak louder than words. Watch what a person does more than listen to what they say." - Rich Dad

This is a three part series about how talk, according to Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad, is cheap. This series also serve as a personal reflection of the things that I do, the things I've done and the things that I have to do in order to reach financial freedom.

I started the day with a dilemma (What?). How can I make this day very productive but at the same time, enjoy a long S.trongend (positive words people!-instead of using Week.ends)?

The answer came from my brother, and a very interesting application on Facebook. Also a big thank you for my one and only, Jepi for making an agreement with me of finishing atleast 10 blogs for today.

A way to satisfy the gamer in me, and at the same time, help me learn more about having a millionaire mindset and building a real estate business? Millionaire City on Facebook is really doing this for me right now. Attracting the things that I truly want to have in the future, a few years more. I'm really excited!

I did mention that dovetailing does not work at all in one of my blogs-so I'm finishing this blog first before going back to the game.

So, how about it? Give it a try!

In all things, persevere,

T.his is the life God has given me. I take control.



Decide that you really want to change. You want to take control of your life. You want to be free. Decide that you want to do things (limitless things) with your life. -Zig Ziglar


A follow up on my recent (October 29, 2010) status on FB.

Just a few hours ago, I visited a potential property for flipping, got to talk with the real estate broker who is selling the house for his sister who migrated the US of A. I was ecstatic about the experience, I mean, I was really doing it. I scheduled a meet up with a broker, took pictures of the house, assessed the damage that needed repairs and also thought about my whole approach towards the deal (applying the techniques taught to me by my mentor, Mr. Trace Trajano).

But that's not all, I also finished listening to one of Zig Ziglar's audiobooks about goal setting and motivation. Please avail of his audiobooks, listen to them, repeatedly. Not only are his words, truly legendary (in all aspect of the word, closely related or parallel to AWESOME), but he has a very endearing accent.

I even got to work at the clinic for make up (2 sessions only though).

All the while, I was thinking. "Wow, I think I outdid myself today, I tackled every aspect of the things that I need to do everyday to reach financial freedom".

But the clueless me, wasn't even aware, up to now, that I actually did a lot MORE unnecessary things than doing the productive and functional vehicles that will guide me to my goal. Give and take, it would be a 70-30 cut, unnecessary vs. productive. A very nice turn out for you indeed.

So if you really want to change, for the better (I pray that is the direction that you will point your arrow), look at all the things that you do, I mean ALL of them (categories: fun, productive, trash, what-the-heck, are-you-out-of-your-mind, adrenaline-junkie type of things).

Decide to change, reinforce the good, the positive and the powerful.
Strip away the bad, the unnecessary, after all, they are just extra baggage.

In all things, persevere,
