Learn with my Failure: Things that you need to Consider when starting a business (Part I)

Last 2018, when my family decided to have our own family business. It's a Glass and Aluminum and Roll-up Door Installation business. But since that day, until now, we are financially struggling with our business. 

So what happened?

Last May of 2018 when my parents called from Manila that they are planning to have a business. It's the roll-up door business. As I listen to them, I can really hear a very optimistic plan and expectation. That's why I work the legal papers while they are still in Manila. 

After 2 months, my parents decided to go back to their hometown in Valencia City, Bukidnon. Of course, I feel that they are happy with their decision. 

Since then my family is eager to finally have our permits. And yes we did it. 

We find an office that costs us for 10,000 pesos a month. I know it's too costly. 

At first, we didn't find hard because we still have money to spend. But after a few months, as I checked on our bank accounts, our money starting to lose. 

So what happened again?

Here's the thing. First is if you plan to have a business, DON'T HIRE A FAMILY MEMBER. 

Why? Just check out these reasons:

1. You can't depend on them - Yes! you heard it right, you can't depend on them. Since it's your family, all of your plans, you should do it alone. 

2. Your meeting is useless - once you and your family are in just one room. There's no formal meeting that will happen because they keep on telling useless things. And sometimes, get angry because you disturb them. 

3. No Sense of Urgency - when I say a sense of urgency. Of course, it's a business, so time is very valuable and you need to act fast. But of course, since it's a family member it is just yourself who feels that the business is losing. And guess what, you still need to get angry before they will do what you say. 

4. No communication at all - it's just so ironic that working in a company where you can always see your siblings and parents and yet no one cares to bring a cellphone with them in case of emergency or client's call. You will just shock one day that someone inquires but no one answers it. And they will just simply say "Hey! someone message on Facebook, have you seen it?". Then in my mind, "What the heck? You already see it but you just ignored it". Or sometimes they will just simply say "I didn't answer that because I don't know the computation". Then in my mind "Of course, how will you know if you don't ask?". 

5. You're tired always - tired of thinking of ways how to gain clients, tired of thinking what will the company faces in the future, and tired of always reminding them that they need to act fast. 

These are just some issues and problems you will face when you start a company. And most of your colleagues are family members. 

That's why if you're planning to have your own business. Hire other people. Because other people will strive more to make their work better every day. And they don't want to lose their job. But if you hire a family member. Good luck to you!

Hopefully, you gain something in this post. And if you think you like it. Please don't forget to subscribe to this blog. And let me know what are your thoughts. And share it with your other friends. 

Thank you so much and see you next time.

Why Do We Crave Sugary Food?

For many of us the sight of a freshly glazed doughnut can feel like falling in love and coming home to a pack of unopened cookies can feel like the adult version of Christmas morning. There’s something about sugar that hooks us and keeps reeling us in again and again. Whether we like it or not sugar has a major hold on us.

If you’re reading this it’s highly likely you understand, and have first-hand experience, of this allure. Sugar isn’t just confectionary, it’s compulsion; there is no such thing as stopping after “just one.” I mean, if one is good, more is better. At least that’s what it feels like with the sweet stuff.

Click Here to Visit the Website

We are given many reasons for our sugar cravings: pleasure-seeking brain circuits, intestinal parasites, mineral deficiencies, malnutrition, habitual behavior, unbalanced diets, too much salt, buried emotional issues, lack of sleep, stress.... and my favorite, lack of discipline. We are not at a loss for reasons for our addiction to sugar, yet knowing isn’t enough to change us or our behavior. If knowing was enough we would all be winning gold medals and gold stars in every area of our life. If anything, knowing just makes it feel worse... we know better so why aren’t we doing better? Knowing becomes just another reason for us to feel bad about ourselves.



The next step to knowing is to try and do something about it. We take matters into our own hands and attempt to turn our sugar-loving switch from on to off. This is not a painless process, and just when we feel we’re making ground something happens to throw us off and we’re on a mission to hunt down any sugar we can find and back at the start.

When we decide to target our sugar dependency, we attack the sugar itself, we clear the pantry, empty the house of all products and declare sugar the enemy. And this is fine... except it doesn’t work. When we create an action plan like this, we’re a few steps too far ahead and facing the wrong direction. We don’t address what’s really happening.

The key: target the true problem, not the side-effect of the problem. And sugar cravings are the side-effect, they’re the symptom of the real problem, and treating symptoms never makes the problem resolve. The only way to create true, long- standing change is to address the root cause.... otherwise you’re just wasting your time and prepping yourself for another future sugar-binge.

What is the root cause? Leptin resistance. One way to target leptin resistance is with a product called leptitox, a blend of 22 all natural ingredients which work with your body to reverse leptin resistance and it’s effects. When leptin resistance occurs in our body we have a malfunctioning system. This malfunction will produce troublesome symptoms. Not only does leptin resistance increase hunger but it creates cravings! That’s a recipe for disaster! Not only will you be hungry but you’ll be hankering after the worst foods imaginable...

We may have blamed everything else under the sun for our inability to stop reaching for the next cookie... everything but leptin resistance. If you want to see real movement and change you’ll need to target leptin resistance and do something to “fix” it.

Leptitox is just the way to address the growing problem of leptin resistance, since it has been created to target and address it. Leptitox is a blend of 22 carefully selected herbs, amino acids and vitamins with the ability to help your body address the real cause of leptin resistance. It will change everything you thought you knew about weight loss.

I can still hear your voice and

But I can't see you in my arms

I need you now,

And I will always need you, somehow.

Let me love you and make a world with you

Though, I know. . .

That I'll become just a friend for you. 

Your laugh

Your Sweetness

Your Charm

I'll set you free

Because you deserve to be happy

Though, its hard to accept

It could be tough and very hard

But I need to let you go

Because that's the best thing that I can do.

Investment Schemes in the Philippines - Why Filipinos are Buying it? (My Point of View) 2019

Hello Everyone,

 It's been almost 2 years since I wrote something on this blog but I just wanted to share some of the Filipino Traits that need to change most especially in deals with financial matters. 

 Just so you know, I'm now a full-time businessman and I already getting through these different ways on how to gain money and it's really hard. But since the KAPA Ministry and other investment schemes in the Philippines are one of the very hot topics, I would also like to share my thoughts on why is it "easy-money" investment schemes are very popular here in the Philippines.

 But before I will get deeper on my explanation, just a disclaimer that I'm not AGAINST to KAPA or any other investment companies I'm just expressing my own opinion about the said matter.

 Now, let's go back to the real issue. President Duterte demands some of the government agencies to investigate and asked for the legal documents as well as the financial statements of these investment companies. And since most of them promised to give each member interest to their share capital of not less than 30% every month, many Filipinos easily get interested in the said investment schemes. In which I can't blame the Pinoys why they are so much into "easy-money" investments.

 Just a refreshment, last 3 or 4 years ago, I also join to a Networking Company that promises a good return if you just give your best effort to gain such ROI. But unfortunately, I stopped. Why? Because I realize that - yes, there's no problem with networking because it's like with any other types of business in the market, however, I also realize that, giving a promise to a specific person that his/her life will soon change just because of joining such company is like a "Fraud" to me. Because giving assumptions to a specific situation that IS STILL NOT YET HAPPENING, is like giving a promise of money but all you have in your pocket is candy. There's a product, but everyone knows that the product is just the front-line of the business, it is just an accessory to the whole truth, just to make the system looks-like perfect in the eyes of the people but the reality really is, it is the business model, which is Pyramiding or what they formally label as Networking. There's also a promise of helping one another so that no one will be left behind, but what? that is not the business model is trying to show. It is very clear that the person in the above position, will be the one who will be get benefited compare to others and I think that is something that needs to go over. 

 It's just like what happened to KAPA members, where there is a promising interest or what they call as blessings that the members will get every month. But how did they do that? That is the big question. Well, some of the people would say, maybe they invested it in cryptocurrency trading just like Bitcoin, or maybe on the stock market - I would say that is possible but that is too risky! Remember, the cryptocurrencies and the stock market are always changing, sometimes you can earn a really good return but there's always a time that you will be at loss. Because no one can forecast the trends of these different investment platforms. And if they will say that they have businesses to support such an investment model, so meaning, everyday the business can produce more or less 50 Billion per day? That is totally ambitious. The government just wants to know how will these companies fulfill their promises. Because no matter how good are you in computing, you will never know how will these companies sustain such high returns. 

 And the sad thing, Pinoy's are buying it and these companies are very brave because they use the people to talk on their behalf. Yes, I can see some of the companies' spokespeople on the television but why they cannot give a straight-forward answer, where and how did they use the investments of these people. And since Pinoy's love an "easy-money" investment, it is not surprising on my part the Pinoy's will be the one to ask the Government to give the freedom to them. In addition, also, Pinoy didn't even realize that the government really needs money through taxes and if people will not pay what is due to them, how will the government sustain the projects? How about the free tuition in college? How about the renovations and building of new schools? How about making roads and bridge projects? Where will the government get this? 

 Ladies and Gentlemen, let's not blame the Government, blame ourselves because we always wanted to involve ourselves in a bigger problem. I think Pinoy needs more financial literacy so that everyone will be enlightened. As many people would also say that these companies are helping the poor Filipinos, to be honest, these companies are more helping these big businessmen. How? Because the real poor could not even afford to buy their own shoes and dresses, how much more investing in thousands? But what about these big businessmen? They can invest up to Millions and they can live most out of their money, but how about you? For sure, some of these investors borrowed money to their families or known friends just to give an investment, and I think it's not helping the poor.

So that's all in my opinion. 

How about you? What is your opinion? Let me hear that from you. Write in the comment section below and subscribe to my blog.

Thank you and God bless Everyone.
