Hindi ko naman in-expect na mapipili akong ma-interview. Honestly, it was just one of those moments that I felt grateful for. Sino ba naman ako para tumanggi sa isang opportunity na minsan lang dumating?
Pero pagkatapos nun, nakita ko rin ang iba't ibang reactions. Naiintindihan ko kung bakit may mga natakot o nag-alala, lalo na sa mga usaping may kinalaman sa government. At kung may naidulot mang concern o misunderstanding ang interview na iyon, gusto kong humingi ng paumanhin. Hindi iyon ang intensyon ko.
The truth is, I never wanted to put anyone in an uncomfortable position. I simply wanted to share my journey and hopefully inspire others who are also trying to build something for themselves.
Hindi madali ang pasabuy business. Maraming hindi nakakakita ng puyat, pagod, pressure, at sacrifices na ginagawa namin araw-araw. Maraming beses na gusto mo nang sumuko, pero tuloy ka pa rin dahil may mga pangarap kang gustong maabot at may mga taong umaasa sa'yo.
We're not doing this because it's easy. We're doing it because we believe that honest hard work can change our lives.
As long as we're doing things the right way, following the proper process, and working with integrity, I don't think there's anything wrong with chasing opportunities. We all deserve the chance to grow, to succeed, and to create a better future for ourselves and our families.
To my fellow pasabuy business owners, I truly wish nothing but success for all of us. There's enough room for everyone to win. I know the sacrifices, the sleepless nights, the risks, and the courage it takes to keep showing up every single day.
At the end of the day, I'm just another person trying to make an honest living, just like everyone else.
Thank you to everyone who chose understanding over judgment, kindness over assumptions, and support over criticism. It means more than you know. 🤍
