What we choose to do to be successful is a constant struggle. The string of challenges is kept at a fairly safe viewpoint: slower production, stagnant wages, and hundreds of thousands of lost jobs due to economic instability are all taken under consideration. But is it too much to aspire for better opportunities, secure investments and businesses?
Everbody dreams of living a debt and worry-free life. That is why most of us would want to get good education, a well paying job and a career that fulfills, and retirement benefits that will secure our family's future. We spend almost all our lifetime building on a career that we hope could provide our needs today and in later life. But with the plummeting economy, we can never be sure that the job we cling on could withstand more than 20 years or so.
"Its not how much money you make that's important; it's how much money you keep and how long you keep it," says Robert Kiyosaki, an international financial advisor, motivator, and author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad. He says that many people fail to get rich because they want the money without the wotk. "What many people do not realize is that it's the process that makes them rich, not the money," Kiyosaki says. For each person, the process will be different because each has different goals, dreams, and ambitions. The important thing is to find the best way for you to earn more money, and then to build your goals around it.

Your eBooks Request
Sorry for the delay.
I was caught with some dilemma here. If I may share with you, I was one of the employee who was kicked out from the bank I was working. So you can imagine how unfortunate it feels. Blame it to the global crisis.
But not really much worried like the others I know and I can tell by their face. Since I have been building my DXN business part time for the past 4 1/2 years now and it is giving me really a good passive income every month like a clock work. I once heard this from a very successful person and well known motivator:

Is Lingzhi the King Of Herbs?
Ganoderma Lucidum, known in China as Lingzhi or Reishi in Japan and Yeongji in Korean is a type of mushroom that until recently, was a rare herb and only available to those rich and powerful. In nature, it lives mainly on dried trunks or stumps of trees such as maple, plum, guercus serrata or pasonia trees. Even then, only 2 or 3 out of 10,000 of such aged tree will have Lingzhi growing, therefore it is very scarce.
The oldest Chinese Medical text known today is the "Shen Nong's Herbal Classic", which is known in Japan as " Shinnoh Honsohkyo". This herbal medicine book classifies 365 species into three categories:
* Superior: Herbs which are effective for multiple diseases and mostly responsible for maintaining and restoring the body balance. They have almost no unfavorable side effects, thus also called God's Herbs.
* Average: These are herbs mainly used as tonics and boosters, but their consumption must not be prolonged.
* Fair: Herbs in this category are taken as a remedy for certain ailments only and taken in small doses.
Treatments using herbs in fair and average category have be monitored carefully and should not be taken continuously. In the superior category, these herbs can be taken in any doses and continuously without unfavorable side effects. Amongst the Superior Herbs, Lingzhi is ranked number one, and was therefore the most exalted medicine in ancient times, thus it is also called" the King of Herbs". For centuries Lingzhi / Reishi is known to be a medicine that will grant you eternal youth and longevity.
Due to its medicinal properties and its rarity, many studies were carried out to cultivate Lingzhi / Reishi. With the success in cultivating Lingzhi, Lingzhi is now more readily available to us to use to maintain our health or treat illnesses. Scientists can now make more research to understand it's medicinal properties. One of the success is that Lingzhi is found to be effective in fighting against cancer, though many modern medicine professionals still discounted it, preferring the use of drugs and chemotherapy which have been shown to have many bad side effects.
Ganoderma Lucidum ( Lingzhi / Reishi ) are now used in many forms and are produced in several ways to extract the best medicinal properties. In it's pure powder form, it is still quite expensive, about 30 cents per capsule and is usually taken 2 to 4 capsules per day for health maintenance. The less expensive method is consuming coffee, tea and other beverages which contains Ganoderma or Lingzhiin it. Some of these are now popularly known as Healthy Coffee or Lingzhi Coffee.
Thousands now have reaped the benefit of drinking such coffee, feeling less tired, more energetic with much less caffeine than the normal coffee that they had before. Treatment using Ganoderma Lucidum is also called by some as Ganotherapy.
There have been numerous testimonials and studies showing the excellent medicinal properties of Lingzhi, which is also known as Ganoderma Lucidum, Reishi or Yeongji which confirms that it is indeed The King of Herbs.

Realities Of Being An OFW
REALITIES OF BEING AN OFW
Source: Anonymous
Hindi mayaman ang OFW - We have this notion na ‘pag OFW o nasa abroad ay mayaman na. Hindi totoo yun. A regular OFW might earn from P50K-P300K per month depende sa lokasyon. Yung mga taga-Saudi or US siguro ay mas malaki ang sweldo, but to say that they're rich is a fallacy (amen!).
Malaki ang pangangailangan kaya karamihan ay nag-a-abroad. Maraming bunganga ang kailangang pakainin kaya umaalis ang mga pipol sa Philippines . Madalas, 3/4 o kalahati ng sweldo ay napupunta sa tuition ng anak at gastusin ng pamilya.
Mahirap maging OFW – Kailangan magtipid hangga't kaya. Oo, masarap ang pagkain sa abroad pero madalas na paksiw o adobo at itlog lang tinitira para makaipon. Pagdating ng kinsenas o katapusan, ang unang tinitingnan eh ang conversion ng peso sa dollar o riyal o euro. Mas okay na magtiis sa konti kaysa gutumin ang pamilya. Kapag umuuwi, kailangan may baon kahit konti kasi maraming kamag-anak ang sumusundo sa airport o naghihintay sa probinsya. Alam mo naman ‘pag Pinoy, yung tsismis na OFW ka eh surely attracts a lot of kin.
Kapag hindi mo nabigyan ng pasalubong eh magtatampo na yun at sisiraan ka na. Well, hindi naman lahat pero I'm sure sa mga OFW dito eh may mga pangyayaring ganun. Magtatrabaho ka sa bansang iba ang tingin sa mga Pinoy. Malamang marami ang naka-experience ng gulang o discrimination to their various workplaces. Sige lang, tiis lang, iniiyak na lang kasi kawawa naman pamilya 'pag umuwi.
Besides, wala ka naman talagang maasahang trabaho sa Philippines ngayon. Mahal ang bigas, ang gatas, ang sardinas, ang upa sa apartment. Tiis lang kahit maraming kupal sa trabaho, kahit may sakit at walang nag-aalaga, kahit hindi masarap ang tsibog, kahit pangit ang working conditions, kahit delikado, kahit mahirap. Kapag nakapadala ka na, okay na, tawag lang, "hello! kumusta na kayo?"
Hindi bato ang OFW - Tao rin ang OFW, hindi money o cash machine. Napapagod rin, nalulungkot (madalas), nagkakasakit, nag-iisip at nagugutom. Kailangan din ang suporta, kundi man physically, emotionally o spiritually man lang.
Tumatanda rin ang OFW - Sa mga nakausap at nakita ko, marami ang panot at kalbo na. Most of them have signs and symptoms of hypertension, coronary artery disease and arthritis. Yet, they continue to work thinking about the family they left behind. Marami ang nasa abroad, 20-30 years na, pero wala pa ring ipon. Kahit anong pakahirap, sablay pa rin. Masakit pa kung olats rin ang sinusuportahang pamilya – ang anak adik o nabuntis; ang asawa may kabit. Naalala ko tuloy ang sikat na kanta dati, “NAPAKASAKIT KUYA EDDIE!"
Bayani ang OFW – Totoo yun! Ngayon ko lang na na-realize na bayani ang OFW sa maraming bagay. Hindi bayani na tulad ni Nora Aunor o Flor Contemplacion. Bayani in the truest sense of the word. Hindi katulad ni Rizal o Bonifacio. Mas higit pa dun, mas maraming giyera at gulo ang pinapasok ng OFW para lang mabuhay. Mas maraming pulitika ang kailangang suungin para lang tumagal sa trabaho lalo na't kupal ang mga kasama sa trabaho. Mas mahaba ang pasensya kaysa sa mga ordinaryong kongresista o senador sa Philippines dahil sa takot na mawalan ng sweldo.
Matindi ang OFW – Matindi ang pinoy. Matindi pa sa daga, o cockroaches which survived the cataclysmic evolution. Maraming sakripisyo pero walang makitang tangible solutions or consequences.
Malas ng OFW, swerte ng pulitiko – Hindi umuupo ang OFW para magbigay ng autograph o interbyuhin ng media (unless nakidnap!). Madalas nasa sidelines lang ang OFW. Kapag umaalis, malungkot and on the verge of tears. Kapag dumadating, swerte ‘pag may sundo( madalas meron). Kapag naubos na ang ipon, wala ng kamag-anak.
Sana sikat ang OFW para may boses sa Kamara. Ang swerte ng mga politiko nakaupo sila at ginagastusan ng pera ng Filipino. Hindi nga sila naiinitan o napapaso ng langis, o napagagalitan ng amo, o kumakain ng paksiw para makatipid, o nakatira sa compound with conditions less than favorable, o nakikisama sa ibang lahi para mabuhay. Ang swerte, sobrang swerte nila.
Matatag ang OFW – Matatag ang OFW, mas matatag pa sa sundalo o kung ano pang grupo na alam nyo. Magaling sa reverse psychology, negotiations at counter-attacks. Tatagal ba ang OFW? Tatagal pa kasi hindi pa natin alam kailan magbabago ang Philippines , kailan nga kaya, o may tsansa pa ba?
Masarap isipin na kasama mo ang pamilya mo araw-araw. Nakikita mo mga anak mong lumalaki at naaalagaan nang maayos. Masarap kumain ng sitaw, ng bagoong, lechon, inihaw na isda, taba ng talangka. Masarap manood ng pelikulang Pinoy, luma man o bago. Iba pa rin ang pakiramdam kung kilala mo ang kapitbahay mo. Iba pa rin sa Philippines, iba pa rin kapag Pinoy ang kasama mo (except ‘pag kupal at utak-talangka), iba pa rin ‘pag nagkukwento ka at naiintindihan ng iba ang sinasabi mo. Iba pa rin ang tunog ng "mahal kita!", "day, ginahigugma tika." “Mingaw na ko nimo ba, kalagot!", " Inday, diin ka na subong haw? ganahan guid ko simo ba". Iba pa rin talaga -- “aprusam man ti likod ko baket.”
Sige lang, tiis lang, saan ba’t darating din ang pag-asa.
