Robert Kiyosaki was the first self motivational book i've read before i started work. His famous best seller "Rich Dad Poor Dad" taught me that money comes in different forms such as bonds, shares, real estates, etc. He defined what assets and liabilities means. . His books totally changed my impression of what assets and liabilities is all about. My old perception of liabilities and assets has been the opposite all these while.
Nothing less than a business mogul. I read so many of his autobiographies that tells of his constant challenges. The most admirable traits this guys has is his "there's always a solution to every problem". What else can i say about a men who was once in debts US$99 million, and 35 trillion USD. He remarked in his book that even a street beggar is richer than him by 35 trillion dollars. Reading though his book and you'll realize how through various techniques not only was he able to settle the loan but managed to rebuit his multi million dollar empire today. His philosophy is there is always a way out of any bad situation. Turn the odds against you around and made them into your leverage to propel you forward.After reading this two books, i told myself, hey, they lead a very exciting life, and they excel even after being in economic slump. Both of them has always been my motivation that gave me strength for my own business venture..
September 2008 was the beginning of our business. Throughout the years, there are many up and downs not only patient crowds, but various competitions, national economy turmoil, that totally reduced the crowd by more than 3/4 patients. It's funny how while i was facing the same economic turmoil as those businessman, I wasn't able to react or think like they do?
I figured I am not made for business? I can never be my own boss. (but hey, what i am thinking and saying is the exact example of a self prophesy)
I was right when i read the book from Anthony Robbins,"Unleash the giant within". Our state of mind determines our surrounding and the surrounding circumstances.(well, not always the case) Being successful is easy, its what you do when you are successful that's the test of character.
In a state of depression like mind, I ought to change.... but how.... ?? the same way negativity thoughts started in your mind..... an idea.
There are many idea that stems in head. How to improvise the business here, then further on to expending the business. Ideas are filling my head like effervescence. Too long to write about it here.
Perhaps I will share with fellow readers how overcame depression that was really bad!.
The are times where weeks goes by with only 3-4 patients! I am serious! It is impossible to continue the business of this pattern goes on for few more weeks.
For months, i was perpetually in depression. All the money invested on the clinic and the instruments, gone. Each time I go back home whenever i see my children's eyes, i felt like a failure.
After a long time spent in solitude, I prayed hard to my Heavenly Father to help me to show me the way and guide me for the reestablishment of my clinic.
