What You Can Conceive, You Can Achieve
May I bless your year?
Here’s my prayer for you:
In 2011, you’re not going to experience a drizzle of blessings. You’ll not experience a quick and light rain of blessings. In 2011, you’ll experience a downpour of blessings.
God doesn’t want you to get moist. God doesn’t want you to get damp. God doesn’t want you to get a little bit wet. God wants you to get drenched by a downpour of blessings in 2011.
If you want to be drenched by blessings in 2011, you need to do 4 things, which I’ll tackle each week (every Monday).
Week 1: See the Blessings
Week 2: Speak the Blessings
Week 3: Grow the Blessings
Week 4: Enjoy the Blessings
Today, let me share with you God’s big message for you:
What you can conceive, you can achieve.
Unless you see the blessings, you won’t receive the blessings. Unless you see the blessings in your mind, you won’t be able to hold the blessings in your hand.
I learned this crucial lesson from Elijah…
Your Problems Are Temporary
There was a drought in Israel.
For three years, it did not rain.
Have you experienced a drought in your life? When God seemed silent and blessings were scarce?
Perhaps when you got sick. Or when you lost a job. Or when your son or daughter was hanging out with the wrong crowd. Or when your close friend betrayed you.
We’ve had all these difficult times when you looked up and you could not see a single cloud in the sky.
But today, God is telling you that every drought ends. Every problem—no matter how big—will pass away.
Elijah told King Ahab, Now, go and eat. I hear the roar of rain approaching. (1 Kings 18:41)
Was there really rain? None. The sky was empty.
Because after that, the Bible says that Elijah prayed and asked his servant to see if the storm was approaching. The servant said that there was not a cloud in the sky!
Six times, Elijah asked him to look again—and six times, the servant told him there was nothing.
How many of you will get discouraged at this point?
“Oh no, why isn’t God answering my prayer?”
I realize that our problem isn’t just a lack of faith, but a lack of patience. Nagmamadali tayo masyado. Some of your biggest blessings will come only through time. Have faith and be patient—and your blessings will come.
But on the seventh time, the servant saw a small cloud.
Seven is very important in the Bible. God created the world in 7 days. God gave a seven-fold blessing to Israel. Seven is the symbol of perfection. And when it refers to time, it symbolizes God’s perfect timing.
Don’t rush. The best fruits are ripened on the branch. Are you waiting for an answer to your prayer? Wait for God’s perfect time.
Extraordinary People See Blessings
Where Ordinary People Cannot
But the cloud was incredibly tiny.
So tiny, the servant may have actually told Elijah (my paraphrase), “Don’t put your hopes too high, Elijah. It’s so tiny, it’s no bigger than my fist. Forget it.”
But Elijah answers, “Go to King Ahab and tell him to get into his chariot and go back home before the rain stops him.”
What makes the difference between ordinary and extraordinary people? Extraordinary people see blessings where ordinary people cannot.
They’re looking at the same thing. But one sees a miracle, the other doesn’t. Because ordinary people see with their eyes. Extraordinary people see with their faith.
The servant of Elijah could only see a small cloud. Elijah saw gigantic storm clouds within that small cloud.
The extraordinary person is someone who can see big blessings within small blessings.
Let me tell you a story I love sharing to people.
Do You Want Big Money?
Start With Small Money
Early last year, I taught my maids to invest in the Stock Market. They started by saving P2000 a month.
A few friends laughed at me. Someone asked me, “What can happen with their P2000 a month? That’s so small.”
But that’s why people remain poor. They don’t see the big money in the small money.
Today, one of my maids has P72,286 in her Stock Market account. The other one has P88,069 in her account. These amounts may mean nothing to you, but to them, they feel very rich.
They started with a small amount. Just P2000 a month. But when they discovered how investing worked, they were hooked. So when I gave them a raise or gave them a bonus, they didn’t spend it. They invested it.
Here’s my fearless forecast: I have no doubt that in less than 10 years, my maids will be millionaires.
Huwag mo smallin ang maliit na blessing. Lalaki rin yan!
My point? Unless you see the big blessings in the small blessings, you’ll never receive the big blessings. Because every small blessing has a big blessing waiting to come out.
Be A Blessing Expert
My friend is a bird expert.
He can spot a bird from far away, tell you its breed, its lineage, its migratory timetable… (I told him I only know 2 kinds of birds. Small bird and Big Bird. Yes, the one who lives in Sesame Street.)
I have another friend who is a plant expert.
She can spot a plant a mile away, and tell you its scent, and its scientific name. She won’t just say, “Sampaguita”. She’ll say, “Sampaguitatious Beinte Pesosis” or something like that.
I have another friend who is a Star expert.
Not the astronomical stars. But the showbiz stars. She can spot an artista (actress) a mile away. When she does, she’ll tell you the star’s latest movie, latest song, latest boyfriend, latest liposuction treatment…
Me? I’m a Blessing Expert.
I can spot a blessing a mile away. I know a blessing’s shape, smell, color, sound… Because of this, I see blessings everywhere.
Blessing Experts are happy people.
But I know people who are Problem Experts.
Believe me, you don’t want to hang out with them. To them, everything is a problem. Including you. They’re miserable people and they’ll make everyone else miserable.
When you’re a Blessing Expert, you see more blessings. And thus, you receive more blessings.
Athletes call this the power of visualization.
Imagination Is Powerful
Ask any champion in any sport. Olympians. Serious athletes. Whether they’re runners. Or swimmers. Or boxers. Or weight lifters. Or golfers. Or bowlers. All of them will tell you that they practice visualization.
What is visualization? It’s doing your “sport” over and over again in your mind, with the “right moves” and the “right results”.
Many years ago, I was talking to a basketball coach. What he shared to me was fascinating. He said that coaches all over the world are now realizing that they need to train the player’s imagination.
If you were a serious runner today, even before you stood up from bed, you’d already be visualizing your perfect run. You’d picture yourself crouching on the starting block, hearing the starting gun, and launching yourself from the starting line. You’d imagine yourself burning the track like you’re the Flash.
It’s a complete multi-sensory picture: You smell the freshly cut grass, you feel the gust of wind on your face, you hear the roar of the crowd on the bleachers. You see yourself crossing the finish line, snapping the tape with your chest. You picture yourself receiving a gold medal around your neck.
Why do all champions do it?
Because visualization works.
Mind you, it doesn’t only work in sports.
I realize I use visualization all the time.
I use this in my work too.
Before a meeting, I picture in my mind a successful meeting. Before I start a project, I picture in my mind a successful project. And before I preach, I picture in my mind a successful talk…
And speaking of preaching…
Before I Preached To 30,
I Already Preached To 30,000
A lot of people know that when I was 13 years old, I gave my first talk. It was a prayer group of 30 people. It was a very biased audience: Half of the seats were already filled by my parents, my 5 sisters, my 4 aunts, my 4 cousins…
But a lot of people don’t know this fact: That before I gave a talk to 30 people, I already gave a talk to 30,000 people.
How in the world did that happen? In my mind.
One day, as a 12 year old kid, I woke up and saw myself preaching in Araneta Coliseum. I was holding my Bible, preaching in my Pajamas.
Whether that was a vision from God or from my playful imagination, I don’t know. But all of a sudden, I knew it was a desire of my heart.
Today, that dream has come true again and again.
That’s why I believe God has given you the power to make your dreams come true.
Let me tell you the story of my friend Rudy Torres.
The Story of The Electric Fan
When Rudy got married, he was so poor, he couldn’t even buy an electric fan. He and his wife were renting a tiny room for P90 a month. And this tiny room got warm during summer, and without a fan, it got really hot.
But even in his poverty, Rudy believed in his dreams.
He was also a great believer in having pictures to remind him of his dreams.
So he did the ridiculous. He got a newspaper, cut out a photo of an electric fan, and pinned it on their wall. And each time he saw the photo, it reminded him of his great goal in life (at that time): That he’d be able to buy an electric fan for his beloved wife.
Whenever he saw beads of perspiration on her forehead, he’d go to the photo, and “press” the switch of the fan. He focused on his dream.
Four days later, Rudy heard a knock on the door.
When he opened it, he saw his neighbor holding an old electric fan. The neighbor said he was moving out and wondered if Rudy wanted to buy his old fan for P50.
Rudy was overjoyed. “Yes!” he said.
In four days, the real fan now replaced the photo.
The next photo he pinned on the wall was a beautiful white van. Foolish, right? How in the world can a poor man who couldn’t even buy an electric fan now dream of buying a van?
But he kept on dreaming for that van and worked hard. The white van came. And so did the larger homes. Both here and America.
Today, Rudy is a multi-millionaire.
His secret? He saw the blessings in his mind before he received them.
The Story of Anawim
Many years ago, I had a dream: To build a home for the poorest of the poor.
It was simply an idea. But I used my imagination to the hilt. I saw myself living with the poor, serving God’s favorite people. In my mind, I saw a huge track of land with many homes.
And I saw myself living in a bahay kubo. In my mind, I saw myself surrounded by a rice field, fishpond and coconut trees.
All that came true!
Anawim was a huge track of land in Montalban, and in 12 years, the center welcomed and cared for hundreds of abandoned elderly people.
Anawim was beautiful—with 10 nipa huts on it.
But unknown to me, nipa huts were very expensive to maintain. Because of storms, they got destroyed easily.
Last year, because I wanted to focus on Light of Jesus, I felt it was time to pass on Anawim to other people. And God sent my friends Aida Dy and Linda Reyes.
Last year, at the Feast (our weekly gathering), I asked people to draw a Dream Board. Aida and Linda showed me their Dream Board. It was an amazing Dream Board. I noticed it didn’t contain anything about their children or grandchildren. Their Dream Boards were all about Anawim!
Both of them told me, “Brother Bo, Anawim will look like a resort. The elderly people will think they’re in Baguio or Tagaytay. (Note to non-Filipinos: These are vacation places in the Philippines.)”
Their dreams were far better than mine!
Two weeks ago, we blessed 4 beautiful homes in Anawim. They’re so beautiful, they indeed look like the homes in Camp John Hay in Baguio! Their dream has become a reality.
In the first version of Anawim, we had nipa huts. Why? Because that was what I saw in my mind.
In the second version of Anawim, we now have these beautiful resort-like homes. Why? Because that was what Aida and Linda saw in their minds.
Remember, your reality is only limited by your vision.
What you hold in your hand is only limited by what you see in your mind. Your inner world will always manifest in your outer world. Here’s a fact: Your imagination is a blueprint of what will happen in your world.
May your dreams come true,
Bo Sanchez

Thank you Bro Bo for another inspiring messages. I really missed reading a blog post from this blog.
Anyway, I have written article about blessings in my blog as well (http://www.elvinperia.com/2011/01/food-for-thought-blessings-are.html).
Most of us are really problem expert. We sensed problems more easily as compared to the blessings. Thank you for reminding us that we should focus more on the blessings as compared to focusing on the problems.
Excited for next week’s article.

Hello Bro. Bo,
I was laughing at many the instances on this blog. It is such a positive feeling to have. More ever true is this positive thinking, positive visualization. In fact, this is one of my goals in this stage of my life: to rid myself of being a problem expert and, instead, focus on the good things that God drenches us with along our journey and visualize having achieved our wishes in life.
More power to you and your staff. Happy New Year to all.
Sincerely,
Oliver
P.S.
I’m also in great expectation on what good things your next blog would entail, be it one that is a tearjerker or a laugh out loud story. Thank you, Bro. Bo, for having these connect us with our relationship with God.
Thanks Bro. Bo God bless you always.

Thanks, Bo! Now I have a photo of a Taffeta White Honda Accord as my desktop wallpaper!
Hi Bro. Bo,
It was indeed inspiring and motivating. Very timely. I am in a stage of reviving my self-confidence. I failed and got disappointed countless times. when I was in college I used to have my dream board but since I wasn’t able to achieve most of what I put there, I stopped dreaming of them but still at times I wish for them. About a week ago, I decided to do some affirmations every morning and be more enthusiastic about my goals and dreams. I am determined now to work them out and achieve them through constant prayers, right attitude and hard work.
Thank you for being God’s instrument. I learned so much from you and I am inspired by your faith and wisdom.
God Bless us,
BingT

yours in Christ;
mely
Great!
Visualization really works.
Sa totoo lang nung college ako madalas akong nangangarap na masabitan ng medal sa graduation. Di ko na mabilang kung ilang beses akong humarap sa salamin at kunway sinasabitan ng medals. Tama MEDALS ayoko ng isa gusto ko marami. (libre naman mangarap). Pero sa totoong buhay nananalangin ako na sana kahit special award lang.
Ang himalang di ko inaasahan… CUMLAUDE ako at nakakuha ng Outstanding Performance During INternship. Dalawa ang medal ko. Hindi pala lahat ng pangarap ay suntok sa buwan. Hanggat may pangarap may mararating.
Thanks Bo…
Thank you. Very Inspirational. More power Brother Bo

God always hear the desire of our hearts & binibigay Nya yun in His perfect time… sana Bro. Bo magkaroon ka rin ng seminar dito sa Dubai
God bless us all
Thank you Bro. Bo for this blog.
While I was reading this blog, I was able to look back at the times when I experienced a feeling of “drought” in my life. Be it financial, relational and spiritual. When I was in this stage of my life, it was God who brought me back to life. From that turn about, it has been truly amazing.
The changes in my life, not just spiritual and financial, but also relational (which I believe is the biggest factor), have brought about a new me, a more energized me as I approach life, love and faith.
Thanks again Bro. Bo!
In all things, persevere,
Anthony Verrick Dones
Thank you Bro. Bo! You are truly inspirational! You are God’s instrument for us to hear His word..God bless you and your family always!
With love&prayers,

Dear Bro. Bo,

Your article is so timely… and I will confirm your message that God is keeping His promise in His own time. We just need to learn the virtue of patience.
You know what? I got promoted! With this l was able to learn that don’t resist on Gods plan just be obedient and learn His ways!
Thank you once again!
God Bless you!

Hi Brother Bo, Thanks a lot for this inspiring article. God Bless.
Hi Bro Bo thanks for another inspiration in this article. Sometimes..I go frustrated when God never answers my prayers for a longest time, that sometimes I questioned His love for me..but through this I am more convinced to be have more faith and be patient, for He knows the best for us in His perfect time. Thank you so much for always giving us hope in the midst of all uncertainties of life. Godbless and more power…
mhe..
Thanks Sir Bo, You’re words are such an inspiration to many.
I’m very enthusiastic about doing some charity/business with you soon.
More power to you Sir!
Dear Brother Bo,
I really feel inspired every time I read all your soul food stories it really inspire every reader. How I wish I can be like your maids who will start making money in the stock market with a very minimal amount. I don’t know what kind of stock market I will join that will accept little amount as a start up.
Hope you can help me. Much thanks and regards. God bless!!
Dear bro. Bo.,
Another superb article…knowing what can i conceive, i can achieve….and i really love the lines..”Unless you see big blessings in the small blessings, you’ll never receive the big blessings..because every small blessings has a big blessing waiting to come out..!!”You’re perfectly right bro. Thanks so much coz right now, even your article is sooo “little” compared to the soooo many write ups & articles in the internet world, i can now brightly see & felt in my heart the sooo ‘BIG” blessings in it as i read & reflect on this just little article…whew..God is really great because of you…
Please continue to be a blessing to everyone like me…& i’m dreaming that i could always be a blessing to others too…God bless to you & to your love ones..May God be praised forever.!
Thank You Bo,
Your Soulfood message was indeed very inspiring. This is what I want to practice starting today. Visualizing my dreams. Whenever I read about stories of successful people as well as hear about them I realize that they all had something in common…they mastered visualization. Its indeed the greatest gidt God gave us. And I believe that God will put desires in hearts or dreams in our hearts because he wants us to pursue them and pursuing them is God’s plan for our lives. And so to achieve our dream…we must first visualize it because visualizing it increases our faith everyday that God will give it to us! Thank You for the inspiration!
Thank you Bro.Bo…God bless…
I am also a big dreamer Bro Bo.
One of this day I am going to share my life story with you and to many people in Araneta Coliseum.
I have proven many times the power of visualization,I am a photographer… before going for a shoot I pre-visualize every single images, I have already the result in my mind.
When I was 17 years old long time ago,I wrote in a pad paper that I am going to wed my future wife in church without asking money from my parents and 13 years ago after that it happened…more of my dreams I will share in Araneta Coliseum with Bro Bo.
thank you Bro Bo for guidance and inspiration.
Another awesome Article Bro. Bo…..a million thanks to you. This 2011…let us all prepare for the ABUNDANCE OF GOD…be Ready to Receive it….We deserve a Good Life because we are all children of God, God Bless Us All.
Thanks Bro Bo for another inspiring message for me and my family. I will surely practice dreaming to become a blessings to others.
Thanks for a very timely article. Now I know why and whwt to do.
Thanks Mr. Bo. You always inspire me. ^^,
thnks bro. bo^^
God bless you always Bro.Bo! Thank you so much for
keeping us reminding that God is great and good all the time!!!… =)
Good day !
As we labor for the things that are necessary of earth and our daily existence, let us not forget to labor more each day for the things that are of Heaven ; loving God in serving other’s needs in the person of the poor , the homeless, the elderlies, the sick, the dying, the downtrodden, the forgotten, like what Bro. Bo is doing.
I love this song —
” Mother of Christ… i tossed on a stormy sea… i do not sigh for the wealth of earth, for the joys that fade and flee…
This do i long to see - when the voyage is over, O stand on the shore, and show HIM at last to me. ”
Have a very good year !
Thanks Bro. Bo !
God bless you and your family !
Thanks Bro. Bo for lifting my heart & mind again… the key point of Good Visualization…
Your inspirational and soul-piercing messages and anecdotes are not only awesome and beautiful but has far-reaching effect on all souls, rich or poor, sinners or saints, believers or non-believers, Christians or non-Christians and allow all to have love, faith, trust, hope in God and to oneself. IF, only, all can be touched by your message, then this world is a far better place to live in and there will be peace on earth and goodwill to men. GOD Bless you you, Bro Bo.
wow bo, what a good way too start the year God bless!!!!
great Bro. Bo….Wait for God’s perfect time….God Bless Us All.
Thanks Bro.Bo for sharing.
Yes, God’s Blessings is unlimited, like the 24/7 offered by mobile network. God blessed me every second, every minute and every hour of the day..
hello bro. Bo
i think this message widens my thoughts. i forgot that we can be what we want as long we use the power of our mind…
may you continually touch the hearts and minds of those people who have lost hopes in their lives.
More power to you…God bless us all…:-)
thanx bo for this wonderful msg. super helpful to me. Godbless us all. =)
Hi Brother Bo,
I have been reading Kerygma from when I was a fresh college grad and have been enjoying “The BOss” very much since then (that’s 14 years!). And all those years, I have had my driest desert moments. But I know in my heart that I will eventually make a living out of my hear’s desire, and do it at home too! I have been doing your visualization, and after 14 years, I am now working from home, and writing for pleasure and for profit! And when it rains, it indeed pours. I have writing jobs more than I can handle. So yes, patience is virtue, even if it would take half of your lifetime. But when it does, you’ll be drowned in an ocean of goodness and gifts.
Thank you, Bro. Bo, for this inspiring article!
I’m experiencing some problems right now,
but I believe and I’m certain
God will grant me the blessings I need.
Keep blessing other people

Hi Bro. Bo!
That was very inspiring. I hope it can happen to me too. Because everytime I imagine and dream things, the opposite happens to me..Hope I’ll be blessed someday soon..
Keep up with enlightening us with your words of wisdom Bro. Bo. You’re a great inspiration.
thanks bro. bo.!!! its really inspiring thoughts…
We must believe and visualize our dreams….
Hi Bro. Bo,
Thanks for the abundance of your knowledge, you always share it to everyone. I do believe all that you’ve said, it really works and it happened to me already. I’ve read this book entitled “The Secret” it’s about the law of attraction, what you really visualized and thinking in your mind it would attract to you, that’s why I’m really aware of all the things that would feed into my mind. It says that ask, believe and be grateful that you already received it. God bless us always. SHALOM!
Have a wonderful morning! bro.bo
This phrase was got my attention ‘Your imagination is a blueprint of what will happen in your world.” that is why i used to visualized my dreams every now and then.
thank you bro.bo for reminding me….
thank you so much…….:)
Bro, this sound smack of NEW AGE.
I joined a seminar (PSI - People Synergistically Involved) around 25 years ago and this was one of the main tools espoused. Boy, was I good in visualizing!
I guess you already know how New Age practices messed up a lot of people lives. I have long foregone this practice and now just try to find out what God’s plan is for me and try to humbly follow. As a result, I am much happier and at peace (and not to mention, a financially richer).
I guess our thoughts are not God’s thoughts. God’s thoughts are infinitely far more superior. And He loves us. So I trust His plans (visions) for me and try to follow His will.
But if you really want to venture into visualization, I still remember PSI recommending Napoleon Hill’s “What the mind and conceive and believe, the mind can achieve”. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hA-7aq6OXI
Also, I feel uneasy that you may be dabbling in “prosperity gospel” which is supposedly not the turf of Catholicism… Should we not focus ourselves to heavenly treasures (like Mother Teresa) instead of New Age hogwash like Napoleon Hill?
@ Jorge— True, God’s Plans are superior than ours. They say - ” Man proposes and God disposes. ” I believe it is less stressful and less worrisome if i just discern and humbly obey God’s will for my life , fully trusting in His unconditional Fatherly Love for me ! If i don’t get what i want, then He sees that it is not good for my soul. Having this frame of mind and disposition brings joy and peace to the soul.
Lesser stress means lower blood pressure too for me ! ha ha …
” Live well , Love much, Laugh often ! ”
Be Happy All !!!
Thanks and God bless you Bro. Bo and Family !

bro. bo:
thank you for the inspiring words. these have been my source of strength ever since I experienced a storm last year. now the storm has come to pass. and just in the 2nd week of the year, I received a 5-digit raise for which I am ultimately grateful. my only problem is that a co-worker, who was likewise expecting a raise, was not as fortunate. and lately, i feel that she is taking this against me. i feel offended by her potshots/hirits at me. i would like to seek your counsel. i have no intentions of hurting her, but I am the one getting hurt in the process..
i hope you can give me your guidance. god bless you, your family and everyone at the feast.
Dear Bro Bo,
I was so inspired reading your articles.. Dreams will come true.. Yes, there are moments that i almost hope, especially now that i have a big dream that I am almost feed up to wait.. I am hoping in proper time God will give the desire of my heart.

Dear Mr. Bo.
Your blogs and teachings are blessings already. That is very true, “what visualize, you realize”. Thank for continously sending me articles.
It helps a lot.
[…] Please see Bro. Bo’s blog on this: What you can conceive, you can achieve […]
Thanks Bro. Bo for the inspiring message.
I always look forward to receiving e-mails from you (God Whispers, Soulfood, Wealth strategies).
I have recently invested in a mutual fund and started investing in the stock market (through citisec online). I hope I can regularly invest in it.
By the way, can you come up with an article on how to raise up a child? I understand the ways of our elders before does not apply to our kids today. I have a 2 year old kid and I want to know how to discipline her effectively as early as possible.
God bless!
Sir
You always inspired me of your articles. Thank you so much for sharing all the blessing to us..
Thanks Bro Bo Sanchez,
For inspiring us thru your blogs,i realized that God really loves us so much.We just need to open our hearts and have faith in Him all the time,He is working in our dreams in a right time.
May you continue to inspire us and be a blessing to us continously.
[…] about using dream boards when I read DJ Dimaliuat’s post on it. I had one before, when Bo Sanchez discussed it and blank illustration boards were distributed at the Feast so we could make our own dream boards. […]
