Starting your own business is terrifying, really. This is especially true if you are investing your hard-earned money and if this would be lost, you are into trouble. 

There are a lot of challenges you'll meet along the way. You're  lucky if you have a mentor at your side but if you're threading the path alone, it's really hard. Time and again, there are disappointments along the way. Sometimes you get excited, you plan vigorously with great passion and then the next day BOOM! something nasty happens and then you begin to think twice. You begin to ask yourself if you could really do it.

My dream is to become wealthy, to be truly rich. This is the reason why I'm thinking of different ways on how to make money. It's not easy considering the many problems I'm facing right now. Stress, emotional problems, financial problems, problems at work and lovelife (^_^).

I tried some ways and it feels awesome that I'm earning. Not so big but I am learning how to save and invest. I don't have that much yet but I believe that starting is the key to reach our dreams. I learned that from the power talks of Bro. Bo Sanchez.

Right now, I'm still investing in the stock market and recently I decided to venture in a traditional business. I'm so afraid if you may ask. A lot of things, negative things, invaded my mind. So many what if's adding to the negative stories from friends and relatives and so many times I wanted to backed out. I thought of what may become of me if my hard-earned savings would be bankrupt or gone.There's nowhere to go if that happens.

The one thing that kept me going is the thought that if I wouldn't start right now, when will I start. If I wouldn't start, who would. If I would give in, how would I know, how would I learn to put up a business.

As of now, I had already met a lot of challenges. There are times when I thought of surrendering and submitting to the old life I had. But I chose to move on and meet the challenges head on. I believe I can. Anything could happen but this was also the challenge most successful people had experienced. I might as well try.

Nice post. Setting up your business is not that easy. I am trying hard to set up my own business so that I can make profit and able to build my wealth. Investing in real estate can be a better option.

Thanks Ethan. God bless your business. Yes indeed. Investing in real estate could be a better option. In fact I'm attending a seminar about investing in foreclosed properties this December. I am hoping this would help me.:)
