“Masyado ka namang mataas kung mangarap!”
“Suntok sa buwan naman ‘yan!”
“Sige nga… Paano mo makakamit ang ipon mong 1 million sa isang taon?”
Ilang beses na ba kayong nakatanggap ng discouragements
while sharing with others your own dreams?
Yung mga pangarap na maka-graduate at 21,
magkaroon ng sariling bahay
at lupa when we reach 25 years old.
Have a secured investment and business at 28.
And get married by the age of 30.
Have kids before reaching 35 to 40 years old.
Kapag stable at secured na ang business,
maybe we can retire as early as 50
and travel the world with our family.
Ang sarap lang i-imagine if all our aspirations
will come to pass the way we want it.
But we also cannot deny there will
always be challenges ahead.
But here’s what we should keep in mind:
WHEN THINGS GET ROUGH, BELIEVE PANGARAP

Challenges are inevitable. This happens
to everybody, so don’t be surprised.
Ever heard a success story
without going through a lot of challenges?
Ang iba pa nga ay dumarating sa critical point
na pati ang buhay nila ay nakasalalay.
Pero patuloy silang naniwala sa kanilang mga pangarap.
Siguro kung sumuko akong maniwala sa mga pangarap ko,
I cannot share what I have now and help the people in need.
WHEN THINGS GET SMOOTH, PERSEVERE PANGARAP

We are usually being tested when everything is going well.
Do we choose to be complacent and remain stagnant?
Being confident of the stability of our businesses and investments?
Na tipong nakalimutan na nating magreserve
at gumawa ng back-up plan?
Hindi naman dahil sa nag-iisip tayo
ng masasamang pwedeng mangyari,
but for us to be proactive and be prepared.
When we have dreams and goals,
we must always persevere
and always reinvent ourselves.
IN EVERYTHING, DO NOT GIVE UP PANGARAP

We always hear these…
“Dapat kapit lang! Walang susuko!”
“Kahit anong mangyari, dapat magsikap!”
True to what they say, this must be our attitude.
Yung tipong kahit hirap na tayo,
kung may mga pagkakataon na feeling confused
at unsure na tayo sa ating mga pangarap
at ginagawa para maabot ang mga ito,
lagi nating tandaan na dapat hindi tayo basta-basta sumusuko.
How can we see the results of our hardwork
if as early as now we are giving up?
“Kumapit lang tayo sa ating mga pangarap.
Makakamit natin ito basta tayo ay magsisikap.”
