In the last couple of months, I've been dwelling myself into finishing a new course for Tech Academy.

Now, it's almost done and getting ready to release it.

It feels good.

It's all worth it.

I realized it's not just the 'result' we got that really helped us grow.

It's the process in between.

It's the hard work we put into it.

It's the sweat and tears we shed.

That is what makes us grow.

Think about it.

Whenever a friend or someone shares their wins, most of us are thrilled of what they have accomplished.

And most of the time, we focus our attention on the 'results' of what they've done.

"Napapa-sana oil" na lang tayo.

What we really missed is to take a deeper look and analyze how hard that person work to achieve that goal.

What were the sacrifices made and what were the things he/she gave up in order to create that results.

It doesn't happen by magic so there's no magic formula.

The things that he/she has today are the results of his/her 'decisions and actions' yesterday(and maybe so many years ago pa).

If something is not happening in your business or in your life today that is not the way you want to...

What are the things you're doing in order to change it?

The results are results.

It's an output.

You cannot change it.

What we need to focus on are the process behind(a.k.a the inputs).

The sacrifices and the things that was actually done in order to get that results.

Once you focus on the process(the actual steps) that's where you gonna get results.

And by having results, you see what works and what doesn't. Then you improve.

By improving you grow.

I hope you pick up something.

Keep safe fam!

It's easy to say you're quitting your job and starting a business.

To live life on your own terms and have more freedom.

To do things you love and have more time with your loved ones.

That's easy.

The real challenge comes in when things don't go the way you expected.

- Your business didn't work out
- Bills are piling up
- Other people 'calling you nuts'
- You're seeing your friends being promoted
- You're getting a 'new attractive offer' to go back to corporate again.

And a whole lot more.

That's the challenge.

And that's just scratching the surface.

What's even more challenging is when you feel the 'internal effects' of them.

- You started losing confidence
- You're stressed
- You're thinking it's not for you and thinking of giving up

Idagdag mo pa ang mga bashers at negative people who will try to bring you down.

See?

Becoming entrepreneur is not easy. It's not for the soft-hearted.

It comes with challenges. It comes with sacrifices. And it doesn't get away.

'Stop buying the dream' that it will come to you 'silver-plated'.

You have to work for it.

Work hard for it.

'^^That life' is only for those who deserve it. 👊

Discerning ‘real signal’ from the noise is one of the great skills you need today.

Be intentionally focus on things that matter. 👌

I get a lot of messages about how to create an online course and how we run Tech Academy. Mostly from newbies, aspiring online entrepreneurs and aspiring course creators around my circle.

Would you be interested if I hold a Free webinar on how we create and sell simple online courses?

I’ll show you what I do and show you the behind the scenes of what a one-person-seven-figure-per-year(ang haba 😂) business looks like.

100% free.

No catch.

No pitch.

No holding back.

Just a casual presentation and live Q&A about starting and growing an online education business.

Game?

Comment ‘Game!’ and I’ll let you know once I finalize the date.

Fellow aspiring entrepreneurs and small business owners, read this!!! (repost from my archive)

Let me drop a simple value today(hopefully, it could inspire lalo na dun sa mga having a hard time deciding their niche pa lang).

I'll give this the title of "Popping the Bubble".

Yesterday, me and my 2yr old(he's now 7 😅) son played with his new bubble gun.

As I pulled the trigger, bubbles started to come out.

Different sizes and different colors(rainbow? Lol).

Then he started to run and try to pop anything close to him.
He saw a big one but when he was about to pop it, another one came in.

As excited as he was, he went after it.

He saw another one but when he's gonna touch it, a new "bigger and shiny one" caught his attention, so he runs after it.

Suddenly, it was blown by the wind.

Then he ran to another one.

Blown too soon.

Then ran to another one.

And like earlier, when he was about to pop it, a new one came along and caught his attention.

So he goes after it.

Almost close...but never successful.

And the cycle repeats.

Unfortunately, after 15 minutes or so we ran out of the water.

And his bubble gun stopped producing bubbles anymore.

The number of bubbles he popped?

None. Nada. Zero.

Why?

Because whenever he's almost into it, a new "bigger and shiny one" catches his attention.

And he went after it.

Thinking that the "new bubble" is more cool and beautiful, he leaves the old one(which was almost close to him) and ran after it.

And then the same thing happened over and over.

The ending?

No more bubbles yet he didn't pop any single one of them.

Not to mention he seems really tired and wants to go home.

So why I'm sharing this?

Well, it reminds me of when I was just starting on this journey.

I keep jumping from one idea to another.

One strategy to another.

Thinking that the new one would be more "cool and good", I went after it.

Seeing others doing good at their craft, I went after it.

Thinking that the new one would give me faster results, I went after it.

And the cycle repeats.

Until I get doubts.

Until I get tired.

The results?

Nada. Zero. Bokya.

Lessons learned.

Not to mention the time, effort, and money it costs.

So I had to reset.

Reflect on what I really want and what's feasible in my current situation(re-read "The One Thing and Essentialism" --> highly recommended).

Asked mentors.

Then implement and execute.

I was able to get back up.

I learned how to focus.

I learned how to focus on the one thing that's giving more results and "go all in" with it.

I learned how to be patient.

I learned how to ignore "every noise outside" and never get envious of other's success.

The outcome?

10x of the previous.

Not just in sales but in profits.

And not just in profits but in the number of people I helped.

Not to mention the peace and freedom it gives.

Going back to my son's story earlier, he would have popped a bubble if he just focused on one bubble at a time.

But we know he's a kid and he's just having fun.

We?

We're not kids anymore.

We can't just have fun but be broke.

Hope you pick up something here.

Let me end this by posting a famous Bruce Lee quote:

"I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times."

Have a great day!
P.S.
Read that last quote at least 3x and let it sink in.
Cheers!
