August 28, 2009: I wrote these exact words on my daily journal --- I WILL BE MENTORED BY TRACE TRAJANO. When I wrote that, I didn't know how it will happen. I signed it and worked on it.... How? I sent Trace an email. I told him I have been following his blogs and websites since I started reading his book entitled "Think Rich -- Quick!". But for someone who has been through a lot of financial setbacks during the past year, I cannot imagine how I can possibly afford to get him as my mentor. For someone as busy as Trace, I was grateful for the prompt reply. He offered one option --- easier payment term (sorry to broadcast that Trace!). I was thankful and told him I will work on it. Though at the back of my mind, I knew I still cannot afford that (hmm, limiting thoughts!). That was how broke I was. And I have to be brutally frank about it. But I will not sleep on that dream! I looked for my daily journal, opened it and read out loud, "One day, I WILL BE MENTORED BY TRACE TRAJANO!"
Twelve (12) days ago, Trace gave his 10-day challenge. The Prize? Free mentoring! Again, I opened my daily journal and read out loud, "Ten days from now, I WILL BE MENTORED BY TRACE TRAJANO". This is my chance. I don't have to raise any money. Just invite and invite and invite to get that 1000 sign ups! Did I invite the most people? During the last update, I did! Did we meet the challenge given by Trace? Uh-no. We did not! That means, I will not get the CDs, the mentoring...... I opened my daily journal and read out loud, "I WILL STILL BE MENTORED BY TRAJANO". Inspired by everything that I learned from the challenge, notwithstanding that we were not able to hit our goal, I wrote a blog. I just needed to let everyone know how much I appreciate the effort of EVERYONE who helped in getting that 1000 members. Because that "everyone" helped me get closer to my dreams. Everyone here is a team! And I believe that we absolutely did a great job! I am still holding on my dream…… will I get that?
After a few minutes of publishing my blog, Trace wrote me this: “Think Big, I like the way you write. It's very sincere and it comes from the heart. I like it so much I am going to hire you as my Article Marketing/ Writer and in exchange I will give you free mentoring. You'll get memberships in the Real Estate TV and my Think Rich Quick Gold Coaching Program.” ---- Now, didn’t I say “things happen just at the right time”? and didn’t I say, repeatedly that “I WILL BE MENTORED BY TRACE TRAJANO!”?
Thanks so much Trace. I don’t consider myself a good writer. Haven’t really tried it. But you were right, that one really really came from the heart. I never gave up on my dreams of being mentored by one of the best. And it was worth all he wait…….
(by the way, I am using THINK BIG to constantly remind me of all the big dreams I have. May all of us start to dream big and never ever let go of that dream…… because before you know it…… )
