8 Secrets of the Truly Rich By: Bo Sanchez Buy your own copy at any National Bookstore Outlet Have You Relied of God Too Much? Trust God, but tie your camel. - Old Persian proverb Many years ago, when I was still young and handsome (Now, I'm just handsome), I was giving a retreat to a bunch of college women. While preparing for my talks in my bedroom, a regular-sized cockroach flew in and buzzed around the ceiling. I didn't know why I did this, but I found myself pointing my finger to it and commanded, "In Jesus' name, come down and die!" In a second, I saw the insect hit an invisible wall and come crashing down on the floor, dead as a stone. Suddenly , I felt powerful. I lifted my pointer finger to my lips and blew the imaginary smoke. A few minutes later, I was preaching to an enthusiastic crowd of young female college students. Without warning, a bigger cockroach came into the seminar room - probably the grandfather of the critte...

8 Secrets of the Truly Rich By: Bo Sanchez Buy your own copy at any National Bookstore Outlet Do you Practice the "I Hate Myself" Spirituality? Love your neighbor as you love yourself. - Matthew 22:39 Some strains of religion encourage self-hatred. In some religious circles, if you don't like yourself, you're considered a saint. That's a lot of chicken poop but a lot of people believe it. If someone says, "Oh, woe is me. I'm the most rotten, most miserable, most evil, most depraved man on the face of the earth, and I hate me! I hate me! I hate me!" some people will actually canonize him on the spot as a saint. Friends, that's no saint. That guy needs therapy quick. Quick. He's sick. He's got low self-self worth and self-pity all over him. Here's my belief. Unless you love yourself, you can't love anyone else. This low self-worth trip spills over their financial life. Because t...

8 Secrets of the Truly Rich By: Bo Sanchez Buy your own copy at any National Bookstore Outlet Have you Romanticized Poverty? Blessed are the poor. - Luke 6:20 Religion can romanticize poverty. We can receive this message: "To be poor is better than to be rich. It's more pleasing to God. He favors the poor. Poor people go to heaven. Rich people go to hell." If you believe in this philosophy, then goodness, why in the world would anyone even think of becoming rich? Yes, it's true that God favors the poor. And it's true that the Bible says, "Blessed are the poor" (Luke 6:20). But I believe God loves the poor and accompanies them in their difficult journey so that they can rise from poverty. Not so that they can remain in their poverty! It's foolish ti romanticize poverty. Whoever says being poor is romantic is out of his mind. When I was 15 years old, I lived and ministered in the slums - and I'm telling you, there's not...

8 Secrets of the Truly Rich By: Bo Sanchez Buy your own copy at any National Bookstore Outlet Get Rid of Crazy Religious Beliefs The mind maketh good or ill, wretch or happy, rich or poor. -Edmund Spenser You may be wondering what in the world "religious Beliefs" are doing here in a book about money. Answer: Your religious beliefs determine your wealth more that you think. Let me say it again. one of the biggest monsters that keep us poor is that we really don't want to be rich. And we don't to be rich because we've got crazy, insane religious beliefs about money. Religious beliefs are so deep, so wedged to your core identity, you follow them even if you're not aware that you're following them. In this book. I'm NOT in anyway insinuating that all people should try to be rich, yada, yada, yada. Or that we're defined by how much we earn. Mother Teresa had zero income but she's one of the greatest person this century ever ...

"Will you buy this for me, Daddy? he asked. I shook my head. "You need to earn money to buy that." "How?" "Set up a business," "What can you sell?" His face lit up. "I'll sell bangus. I saw him writing , Lola Linda, Ninong Robee, Cousin Denise..." and seven other names of family members. Meanwhile, I typed up a list of the bangus products and printed a leaflet. Bene grabbed a yellow necktie, wore it over his sando and shorts, and scooted out the door - with leaflet in hand. He rode his little three-wheel bike to his Lola's house, gave the leaflet ...

8 Secrets of the Truly Rich By: Bo Sanchez Buy your own copy at any National Bookstore Outlet People do not attract that which they ant, but that which they are. - James Allen James Allen is right. But let me go one step further. It should be written this way:" "People do not attract that which they want, but that which they think they are." Your picture of yourself is't just a picture. It's a photograph of the future. This works in non-financial aspects of your life, too. For example, if you can't see yourself as a "fantastic father to my children," then you won't be spending time with your kids on a daily basis, building your relationship with them. You won't do that because it's not who you think you are. Remember this truth. At the end of the day, who you are doesn't count. It's who you think you are determines your success. Because you'll be acting according to that picture. H...

If you really wanted to be any different, you should be in the process of changing right now. - Fred Smith I had to enlarge my psychological wallet. Some call it our money comfort zone. Can you imagine yourself with a million? Some can't even picture this scene. Some can picture it but they immediately feel uncomfortable. As though there's something wrong with the picture. For example, some have a P10,000 psychological wallet. They see themselves earning P10,000 a month - nothing less, nothing more. If, for example, they get a bonus of P20,000, they'll be happy on the outside, but subconciously. they're panicking on the inside. And so they'll force themselves to lose it all (usually by spending it) They'll buy the dress, the shoes, the ce...

God wants to give them more but their psychology can't handle the blessing. let me give you an example in my life. Last month, I earned more money than I ever earned in any single month of my entire life. (Of Course, the phrase "more money" Is a relative term. What may be a lot of money to me may be loose change to some of you.) But because it was "too much" for me-way beyond what I was accustomed to - I actually felt very uncomfortable. In other words, the money didn't fit my psychological wallet. The money didn't match my perceived identity. I sat with these raw feelings for a whole, and identified them as fear and guilt. I was afraid because it was new experience of earning that huge amount of money. And felt guilty because I may be...
