The hilarious (sometimes crazy) Fr. Eric Santos is a good friend of mine.
One day, he told me this story.
Fr. Eric said that he grew up in a very poor family, so poor that sometimes, they had nothing to eat.
But even if they were poor, his mother taught him the power of wishing.
He remembered the first time he blew his birthday candle.
His mother said, “Eric, make a wish before you blow the candle.”
So little Eric closed his eyes, made a wish, and blew his candle.
Later on, his mother asked him, “Eric, what wish did you make?”

How You Can Be A Blesing Magnet
BY BO SANCHEZ
The Bible says, “Be thankful in all circumstances.”
You see, some people put “conditions” to their happiness:
I’ll be thankful if I find a boyfriend who is as cute as Enchong and has the body of Derek.
I’ll be thankful if my husband changes.
I’ll be thankful if my friend apologizes to me.
I’ll be thankful if I get promoted in my job.
I’ll be thankful if I have a baby.
I’ll be thankful if I graduate from school.
I’ll be thankful if I buy a new cellphone.
Friend, don’t do that. Don’t be unfair to yourself!
Or you’ll never be happy.
Don’t wait for something to happen before you become thankful. Make a decision to be thankful for the blessings that you have right now!
And you’ll be happy forever.
Follow Psalms 77:11 when it says, I will remember your great deeds, Lord; I will recall the wonders you did in the past.
Do you know what will happen?
By being thankful, you’ll become a blessing magnet.
If you want to increase your blessings, you’ve got to be thankful for the blessings that are already there.
Being Thankful Is Dynamite
Being thankful is powerful.
It has explosive power.
When you’re thankful, you unlock your happiness. You unlock your peace. You unlock the storeroom of God’s blessings. And you unlock your wealth.
Let me explain.
Wealth is not your money. Wealth is not your land. Wealth is not your jewelry. Why? Because wealth is a feeling.
Because wealth is not measured by how much money you have. Or how much land you own. Or how much jewelry you possess. Wealth is measured by how thankful you are.
Let me tell you a story.
Two years ago, a man came up to me, asking for prayers.
Irritation was written all over his face.
With much anger, he said, “Please pray for me, Brother Bo. My heart is so heavy. I’m a salesman. I got P350,000 in commission…”
I looked at him in a funny way. I wondered, So what’s so bad about that?
He shakes his head, “I know that seems big, Brother Bo, but it should have been P500,000! But I didn’t reach my quota by just a few pesos. Because of that technicality, I didn’t get half a million. I got P350,000 only…”
He felt so bad.
I prayed over him and asked God to heal his hurt.
After praying for him, I went backstage.
A friend of mine was waiting for me there.
When I saw her, she was smiling from ear to ear. She said, “Bo, I’m so happy. I just received a P3000 increase in my salary!”
I began to laugh. Her gratitude was so refreshing.
Tell me. Who was richer among the two? The one who got P350,000? Or the one who got the P3000?
Answer: The one who got the P3000.
Why?
Because wealth is not measured by how much money you have. It’s measured by how thankful you are.
Be Thankful Even When It’s Difficult
I know.
Some of you might be saying, “But Bo, it’s so difficult to be thankful now. You don’t know what I’m going through. My problems are over my head.”
Perhaps you’re buried in debt.
Perhaps your relationships are broken.
Perhaps sickness is ravaging your body.
Friend, if you want more miracles in your life, you’ve got to be thankful not only for what you see, but for what you do not see.
Being thankful in all circumstances means penetrating the physical realm and going into the spiritual realm. Entering into the sphere of the invisible. And thanking God that He is working behind the shadows. That He is working behind the storms of your life.
I remember the story of my friend, Aiai de las Alas.
Is It Storming In Your Life?
She was telling me how nervous she was when her first major movie was about to be released—the first movie where she was the main star.
Before it’s opening day, she prayed to God that it wouldn’t rain. So that a lot of people will watch her movie. She even went to Baclaran, knelt down, and implored that there be no rain.
When she woke up on her movie’s opening day, it wasn’t raining. She looked out the window and it was storming!
She switched on the radio. The radio reporter said, “Today, Pagasa has declared Signal Number 3 over Metro Manila…”
Her heart sunk. That day, Aiai cried buckets of tears. She asked God why He didn’t answer her prayer. She felt abandoned by God.
But a few days later, she learned what really happened. Because of the storm, school was cancelled. And all the students went to the malls. And just on the opening day, her movie grossed P13 Million.
And her movie became the top grossing film of that year!
The storm became her biggest blessing.
Friend, are there violent storms raging in your life right now?
Don’t give up. Don’t lose hope. Because God will turn that storm into your biggest blessing.
Let me end with one last instruction on being thankful…
Being Thankful On Credit
This is big.
This will impact your life in a powerful way.
Awhile ago, I told you to be thankful for the blessings that you already have. But you also have to learn to be thankful for the blessings that are yet to come.
Instead of praying with fear, “Lord, please give me a house. Please give me a house. Please give me house!” say instead with confidence, “Lord, I thank you for my house that is on it’s way!”
Thank God in advance for what He will do.
In the words of T.D. Jakes, Thank God on credit. (In other words, may utang pa si Lord sa iyo.)
Start thanking God in advance for the fulfillment of your dreams!
May your dreams come true,
Bo Sanchez
PS. For TrulyRichClub Members Only: This Friday, I’m sending out my Stocks Update Report to my TrulyRichClub members only.
In the Report, I’ll tell you about a giant danger that you need watch out for, now that the Stock Market is shooting up to the stars. This Report will protect you from crazy mistakes a lot of people will be making in the next few months!
Not yet a TrulyRichClub Member? You’re missing so much! Because I can teach you how to prosper. For example, I believe you’re missing a lot if you don’t make the Stock Market your magic piggybank.
Hey, I know what people are going to say… (A lot of “Buts”.)
• “But Bo, I know many who got burned in the Stock Market.”
• “But Bo, isn’t the Stock Market for rich people only?”
Here are my answers:
• You’re not going to “trade” the Stock Market. (That’s why 85% of people lose their money—because they trade.) You’re going to “invest” in the Stock Market. That’s totally different. I’ll teach you how to do this. If you follow my simple strategy, you’ll retire a multimillionaire.
• You say only people with big money can invest in the Stock Market? Tell that to my maids at home. They will laugh at you. Because I taught my three house helpers how to invest their small amounts each month--and they’re now exceedingly happy. Because their money has grown tremendously in their magic piggybank called the Stock Market.
I repeat: Follow my strategy and you’ll retire a multi-millionaire.

Conquer Your Fears And Start Wishing
By Bo Sanchez
Imagine that you just arrived in a foreign country.
And you got lost.
And worse, when you checked your wallet, you ran out of money.
And you’re starving.
You haven’t had food the whole day.
So you walk into to a giant food area.
Around you are various food stalls selling hot congee, steaming noodles, and giant sandwiches.
Your mouth waters.
So you decide to ask for free food.
You rehearse your speech: “I’m from the Philippines. I just arrived yesterday. I’m lost. Can you spare me some food? I don’t have money with me.”
But then something stops you.
It’s an emotion you know very well.
You think to yourself, “What if they don’t believe me? What if they think I’m just fooling them? What if they think I’m just a con artist looking for a free meal?”
So you throw away the plan.
You try to find your way home instead, leaving the food stalls, overflowing with food.
Three Fears That Can Stop You From Success
Fear is a powerful thing.
The reason why you don’t ask is because various fears:
1. You fear rejection.
Rejection stings.
Someone says, “I can’t help you.”
But instead, you hear the words, “I don’t like you.”
2. You fear disappointment.
Disappointment can crush you.
So you lower your expectations by not asking.
3. You fear you’re not worthy.
A poor self-image will keep you from asking.
You think you don’t deserve to be helped by others.
But here’s a basic Law of life: If you want to get what you want, you have to conquer your fears.
What Happens When You Ask
Let’s go back to the example above.
You decide to feel your fear—and ask anyway!
You approach ten food stalls one after another.
Nine food stalls owners drive you away and curse you in three different languages you don’t understand.
But the last one, a kindly old man named Mr. Chan said “yes”. He gives you food with a gentle grandfatherly smile.
You slurp it up like a dog.
Mr. Chan was moved with pity, he even gives you bus money and directions how to go back to where you are staying.
The next day, you come back to pay him.
He declines, saying he really likes helping people.
He then introduces you to the other Store Owners who are now apologizing to you. You brush your hand and say it was nothing.
You gain a few friends in the giant food center.
You tell them that you cook delicious adobo and wondered if they could sell it for you. Three storeowners agreed.
You make your first delivery and it was a big hit.
After one year, you also marry Mr. Chan’s handsome son named Jackie, but that’s another story altogether.
It pays to ask.
Being rejected nine times out of ten is okay, hmm?
