Let me share to you how I used my passion for earning money.
I love to write.
When I see a blank screen on my computer and poise my fingers on the keyboard—I feel absolutely wonderful. Like I’m about to give birth to a child. And when words spill from my imagination, forming sentences and paragraphs and worlds before me—I’m in ecstasy. Writing is my natural drug. It lifts me up. It transports me to another galaxy.
Preaching is my other love, a close cousin of writing.
I love preparing for a talk. I love reading a ton of books and culling the best ideas. I love crafting a message. I love choosing the best stories and weaving them together. When I create my talks—and then give it to an audience—I’m in heaven.
I don’t get paid when I preach every Sunday. But I’ll do it more than anything else in the world. Each Sunday, I preach at the FEAST. Thousands of people come each week because they get blessed. But I have a secret. They don’t know that I get even more blessed. Why? Because I learn more. Studying what I preach makes me study the material more.
But when it comes to monetizing my gift, I had a problem…
Finding A “Business Angle”
For years, as a missionary, I thought my writing and speaking skills were only for ministry. I never thought I could use them for business.
So many years ago, I ventured into other types of businesses to earn money. I put up a hotdog and ice cream stand in the mall, a squid ball stand on the street. I also sold memorial plans, herbal juice, and engine oil.
All these businesses no longer exist because they weren’t my passions. When problems came up, I didn’t have the perseverance to keep them going.
One day, I came to my senses.
Why was I veering away from my core gifts?
Here’s one example: Because my passion and gifting is writing and speaking, I now give corporate talks.
Yes, I had to learn how to speak in a non-spiritual setting. My message didn’t change, but my presentation did. So tweaked my speaking skills.
Today, because I guard my time for ministry, I price myself very high so I don’t accept too many corporate invitations. I only speak in corporate settings about once a month. I like it this way, especially now that I run my own businesses. Companies have to pay an arm and a leg to pull me away from what I’m doing. I’m probably one of the highest paid corporate speakers in the country. And today, because I earn from my other businesses, I donate 100% of my speaker fees to the ministry.
So let me ask you: What’s your natural gift? How can you use it to earn more money?
Find ways to create your second and third income stream.
Keep your day job but start something on the side. Keep on experimenting. Be willing to fail fast and learn faster.
May your dreams come true,
Bo Sanchez
PS. Do you want to create multiple income streams?
You want this. And you deserve this. This is what you have been looking for.
But how can you achieve this when the people you usually talk to don’t think this way?
You need a new ecosystem.
You need to be with others who have a dynamic entrepreneurial mindset.
You need to be surrounded by people who are focused on monetizing the intersection between their passions, potentials, and purpose.
You need to rub elbows with them, get inspired by their passion and pick-up their strategies.
