Welcome to my new and improved personal blog. My name is Alwyn Sy, a law graduate, marathoner and volunteer business coach of Create Abundance International Business Community. My passion is running and I want to be financially free to be able to run around the world. Our mission in the community is to spread financial education to the Filipino people. It is also our dream to lay the foundation for First-World Philippines and Filipinos to be world-class entrepreneurs. Aside from helping out in our family's garments business, I am also an International Executive of Nu Skin Enterprises, a company specializing in health, beauty and anti-aging. Hope you enjoy reading some of the articles (business, running and anything under the sun).

The Evolution of One's Goals

"Why do you want to become financially succesful?" is the question I always ask my guests attending our Wealth Course or Cashflow Workshop. The most common answers I get are:
  • to be able to provide for my family's basic needs
  • to have more time for my family
  • to get out of employment
  • to make a difference to other people
There are no right or wrong answers. What I observe, however, is that our goals change over time. They become more deeper and more meaningful.

The best psychological explanation would be the famous Hierarchy of Needs as explained by Abraham Maslow.


In one of our Wealth Course modules, we ask participants to list down 10 Purposes of Money, and rank them according to priority. From there I can pinpoint his/her current needs and where it falls under the pyramid.

If you are an aspiring entrepreneur whose primary "end goals" are for the betterment of community and country, I encourage you to attend our community events! Our country needs more business leaders.
