I Am...

For those who don't know me yet, thank you very much for visiting my blog. Allow me to introduce myself:

I graduated Year 2000 at Uno High School. I was just an average student. Never made it to the Honors List (the only time I got up the stage was a Best In Conduct award in Grade 6.). Fortunately, I was able to get in my dream school - Ateneo de Manila University and graduated Year 2004 with a degree in Legal Management. Again, I was just an average joe in school, never made it to the Dean's List and even flunked one subject. I was never that active in school organizations, and back then I knew that I will never excel in the corporate world. My parents wanted me to go to law school and become the first lawyer of our clan. Although I was already having second thoughts of taking up law during my third year in college (when my Labor Law prof back then already uttered a power declaration that I will never be a lawyer), I decided to give it a shot and fulfill my parents' wishes.

First three years I took up law in San Beda College. Had experienced a breakdown and eventually transferred and graduated at Arellano University. Took the Bar last September 2010. I was not among those who passed the "Bloodiest" Bar Exams. Did my world crumble? Did I break down and cry? No. Quite frankly, I was happy and felt a sigh of relief.

You see, being an entrepreneur is in my bloodstream. Never did I picture myself on an 8-5 job. I also realized that had I pursued my parents' dream for me to be a lawyer, I will just be mediocre. Quite frankly, another reason why I chose to finish my law degree is to add credibility and use it as an advantage in setting up my own business. "Social justice" through the glory of litigation is not my cup of tea. Our country has a lot of very brilliant and talented lawyers. I don't need to be one of them. What I truly wanted to be is an entrepreneur - someone who can provide a lot of solutions to the needs of people. Someone who can empower Filipinos help improve their lives and create improvements and more opportunities to our country. This is my dream of a social justice.

And then I stumbled upon Create Abundance when it was referred to me by my life partner Jenny, and from that day on, I knew this is where I'm meant to be.

I am Alwyn Sy, and my mission is to help thousands of our countrymen become world-class entrepreneurs. My dream is for our country to get back on its feet and be a First-World Country.

If deep down inside you know you are meant for something bigger, trust me, I know the feeling. I encourage you to join me on this journey to self-fulfillment and be a contribution to others. We are now waging a war against financial ignorance and crab mentality. The question for you now is, are you ready to take action?

"We go through life...When we're trying to pick our career, everyone tells us, "Well, you should do what you enjoy.' Well, I enjoyed snow skiing and basketball, but I was never going to make a living in either of those fields. What people should be saying is: 'You need to do something that matches with your values.' It is there that you will find your purpose, your passion and success at many levels." - Blake Roney, founder and chairman of Nu Skin Enterprises

Are You Building A Pipeline Or Hauling Buckets?

This is a great parable taken from Robert Kiyosaki's "Cashflow Quadrant."

Are you building a pipeline or hauling buckets?
 
A village in Africa needed water, so they gave 2 people, Bill and Ed, the contract to supply it, reasoning that the competition would keep prices reasonable and the service good. Bill immediately ran out, bought to buckets, and started making the trek to and from the lake, which was a mile away. He started making money immediately, which was great, especially as Ed disappeared from the village. The downside was that he had to get up before everybody else to make sure that the village had the water, and his work was very tiring, as he spent his whole day carrying buckets of water.

Several months later, Ed returned with a construction crew, and built a stainless steel pipe from the lake to the village. Once it was ready, he announced that he would charge 75% less for his water than Bill, that his water would be cleaner than Bill’s, because it would be covered the whole way, and that it would run 24/7, unlike Bill’s, because Bill didn’t work on weekends.

When Bill saw everybody run to the new faucet at the end of Ed’s pipeline, he dropped his prices by 75%, bought covers for his buckets, and employed his sons to work night and weekend shifts. Once his sons had left for college (and inexplicably never returned), he had to hire more workers to cover their costs, and spent his days dealing with accounting and labor issues.

Ed saw the success of his pipeline in this village, and went on to build them in several other villages as well, earning only pennies on every bucket delivered, but delivering millions of buckets a day. He oversees his business from a beach in Hawaii, as the water flows whether he is working or not.

The end.

The moral of the story is obvious: don’t spend your days working for money when you could be designing systems to have money flowing to, and working for you.
