He champions entrepreneurship, customer service, fostering an entrepreneurial mindset, digital marketing, operations management, and personal transformation.

00:00The Business Mentor Talks is vlog by no other, Armando Buts Bartolome, in cooperation with

00:14the Manila Times.

00:15It aims to bring to life and recognize entrepreneurs who constantly strive to create a living for

00:21the community as well.

00:51Listen to the Business Mentor Talks with Buts Bartolome.

01:15Again, this is Buts Bartolome, again, a blessed Sunday.

01:24But again, for us, our blessedness is actually bringing you beautiful interviews, that are

01:35full of meaning and are inspiring.

01:38Today, we will interview an entrepreneur who has a lot to share, especially what happens

01:51after retirement.

01:52What is it, is it happiness or sadness?

01:57So to give you further, again, insight, I'm with GoNegosyo, one of the mentors of GoNegosyo.

02:07We are also included in other visitations, especially in our DepEd program of GoNegosyo

02:16in Mindoro, in Nuse Mindoro, during the hot season, the very hot season, and at the same

02:23time in Ilocos, in Lawag.

02:27So without further ado, let's welcome Mr. Jordan Patente, the joyful entrepreneur.

02:33Jordan, good morning, good Sunday to you.

02:37Good morning, good Sunday.

02:39I hope everyone is relaxed, Sir Buts, and I'm very grateful that I'm here with you.

02:47Right.

02:48Right.

02:49Jordan, what is it that many people are saying, many of our friends, viewers, and listeners

02:58are saying that they want to retire, retire, retire.

03:02But what is the real meaning of a retiree, what is the reality, the real talk, what is it?

03:11Well, that's a good topic, Sir Buts, because of course, we all reach the point of retirement.

03:18But for some, or for most, if I may say, their retirement age is 60 or 65, but for us entrepreneurs,

03:25it's not applicable.

03:26But in my case, it's a long goal.

03:30So it's a goal that I've set when I was still a full-time employee, and I realized at the

03:35age of 33 that I wanted to retire when I reached the age of 40.

03:39I want to, when I retire, one of the most important books that I've come across with was the book

03:51of Robert Kiyosaki, Sir Buts.

03:53Isn't that the book, Rich Dad, Poor Dad?

03:56Yes.

03:57Yes.

03:58The thing was, that book was not available when I was looking for it in a big bookstore.

04:03The fourth series of Rich Dad, Poor Dad is available, and it is about retiring young

04:12and rich.

04:13That's the title of the book.

04:15So it made a huge impact in my life that, yes, I want to retire, but when I retire,

04:21I want to be very comfortable.

04:23I worked so hard in the last seven years, Sir Buts, that I felt like I gave too much

04:31of my body and myself, and I was able to prove myself.

04:36I was happy, and I must say that even until now, it's been almost three years that I'm

04:42retired, and I'm living the life.

04:44I don't have to worry about where to get sales.

04:47Do I have a house?

04:49Do I have a house to pay for?

04:51Do I have a car?

04:52Do I have a house?

04:53Everything that I need, Sir, I thought I'm beyond blessed.

04:56So for me, it's nice to have a life where you're retired, where you have extra energy

05:03to go around, extra energy to pursue mission work.

05:08Because for me, I miss really big.

05:10Because when I was a kid, Sir Buts, even though I just asked for permission from my

05:16mom in high school, I was already helping in the likes of Bantay Bata, Bantay Kaligasan,

05:22I really like that.

05:24And while growing up, especially when I was busy in my corporate life, I didn't have

05:29time for them.

05:30And especially when I became a businessman, Sir Buts, full-time, I didn't have time

05:36in doing those things.

05:38And I'm looking for it, especially now that I'm retired.

05:41So for me, I'm living a fulfilled life with the enough energy that can bring me and

05:48allow me to go around and do things that really matters to me without compromising,

05:53Sir Buts, what are my values.

05:56That's really big for me.

05:58Correct, correct.

05:59But is it easy to retire?

06:01Is it easy to make a decision to retire?

06:05What was your process?

06:08Well, there are two kinds.

06:10First, forced retirement.

06:12Yes.

06:13Sorry, especially when there's a redundancy or when two companies merge.

06:20You know, we see a lot of that.

06:22Or the other is planned retirement.

06:25Or the other is accidentally retired.

06:28So how does one prepare really?

06:31I'm sure a lot of people are watching us nearing that age.

06:36Because some people say that when you retire, you're already retarded.

06:39Is that right?

06:40I hope so.

06:42I hope you're retarded and happy.

06:44But in most cases, it can be miserable.

06:46Because you said, can a Filipino prepare for their retirement?

06:53And speaking of my personal journey, Sir Buts,

06:57I wasn't able to prepare, even though I've been working towards that goal.

07:02What am I saying that I wasn't able to prepare?

07:04Because for the last seven years,

07:07I wanted the business to be successful.

07:10Then we had a pandemic, right?

07:12So it was a bit difficult.

07:14Because the insecurity of what if this pandemic will not stop.

07:19So the pandemic had a big impact.

07:21And I don't think somebody could really prepare.

07:23Because we don't know until now.

07:25I'm not sure if we're at the tail end or still in the middle of the pandemic.

07:29They didn't say it's an endemic.

07:33Probably, I'm not aware.

07:34But the thing is, even the regular employees

07:38could really not prepare so much about what is yet to come.

07:42Because when you're fulfilling duties,

07:44such as you have a full-time work,

07:46you have a full-time business that you're running,

07:48you just can only plan in terms of thinking what you're going to do next.

07:53But the plan that you have in place could probably not happen.

07:57Because, Sir Buts, the world is different when you're already retired.

08:02The hardest part, Sir Buts, I'll just tell you,

08:04is the aspect that you don't know what to do.

08:08Because you've been so used to working so hard,

08:12doing a lot of things, right? Multitasking.

08:15Mega.

08:16Then all of a sudden...

08:17It's mega, mega tasking.

08:19Sometimes when you wake up, you're tired already.

08:21Sometimes you can't even have breakfast.

08:24You know, hit the ground running.

08:26That's what they say, right?

08:28Yes.

08:29Then all of a sudden, boom!

08:31You have a vacuum.

08:33Yes.

08:34The world stopped.

08:36It's like, hi, why is no one calling me anymore?

08:39Hi, no one is messaging me anymore.

08:42That's true, Sir.

08:43You know, for me, at first,

08:45they say that drug addicts need to go through their withdrawal stage, right?

08:52It's the same with retirement.

08:54Because when I was a full-time business owner,

08:58although I should trust other people,

09:02and then I had an issue about being perfectionist and all that,

09:06I couldn't let go of it right away.

09:08So when I officially turned 40,

09:11my partner and I decided that I could retire.

09:15Because he also saw that my health,

09:19my physical health, and my mental health were not good.

09:21So later, we could share more about that.

09:23But the concept of withdrawal,

09:27can I just handle one department?

09:29And I thought, I love working in branding, in marketing.

09:34So those were my last projects in the business.

09:37So slowly, I was running out of things to do.

09:41It was really hard, Sir.

09:43So for the first time in your entire working life,

09:47you ran out of things to do,

09:49and you couldn't write anything on your planner.

09:54Right?

09:55The vacuum that you are really seeing.

09:59How do you handle that?

10:01The vacuum?

10:02For me, Sir, it was really hard.

10:04If I may just say.

10:05And now, I could understand,

10:07and I understand our senior citizens who are also retiring,

10:12that it's really hard.

10:13Some of them are losing what the Japanese say,

10:16their livelihood.

10:17All of a sudden, you lost your purpose in life.

10:20And so, I'm grateful in a way that,

10:23at least at my age of 40,

10:24I have time to really think about,

10:27what do I want to pursue?

10:29Because Sir, if I may just share,

10:31after being a full-time business owner,

10:33I became a full-time vlogger.

10:35Because I didn't know what I was going to do.

10:37So I really jumped into vlogging,

10:40because I'm used to running an office with people.

10:43Even my vlogging, I inherited Sir Boots.

10:46But I must also tell you,

10:47and I must admit, to be honest,

10:49it wasn't successful,

10:51my venture.

10:52To the extent that,

10:53it's like you still put up a startup business,

10:57and you wanted it to become successful.

10:59So a few months ago,

11:02I think less than 6 months ago this year,

11:05I made the decision to stop vlogging.

11:08Because first, the cost of my overhead is too high.

11:11Second,

11:13vlogging is not that easy.

11:16So these realities are hitting me.

11:20It's like your expenses, stress, preparation and all,

11:23no one is watching you.

11:25So it's part of the process Sir Boots,

11:28that if your world stops,

11:30as a full-time entrepreneur,

11:32or as they say, a corporate slave,

11:36if your world stops,

11:39you have nothing to do but look for a purpose.

11:43So it's like a midlife crisis, so to speak.

11:46So you're now asking,

11:48the big WHY is in front of you.

11:52Why?

11:54You have to find out your WHY.

11:56But Jordan,

11:58it's not just this,

12:00but again, what's really hitting us,

12:02especially after the pandemic,

12:05or during the pandemic,

12:06is mental health.

12:09I know that the other day,

12:10before the pandemic,

12:11nobody wants to talk,

12:13it's like a hush of mental health.

12:18But with this pandemic,

12:20it has really,

12:21you know,

12:22it has really increased.

12:24A lot.

12:25I mean,

12:26nobody is exempted, right?

12:28During the pandemic,

12:29it struck us,

12:30we all thought,

12:31ah, it's just for a while,

12:322 days, 3 days.

12:35But it's 2 days, 3 days,

12:36it became 3 years.

12:39So,

12:40especially if I'm going to retire,

12:42that's really mental health,

12:44really a big factor

12:46that affects a lot of people,

12:48especially retirees.

12:50That's a lot, Sir Butts.

12:52In fact,

12:53the pressure of you

12:54not knowing what to do,

12:55regardless with or without pandemic,

12:58that's heavy.

12:59Especially,

13:00the big factor there,

13:02Sir Butts,

13:03is the concept that,

13:04am I still earning money?

13:05Am I putting money on the table?

13:08Food on the table?

13:09If it stops,

13:10Sir Butts,

13:12even if you're secured,

13:13you'll have insecurities

13:15because you're not productive.

13:18So now,

13:19mentally,

13:20what is really happening?

13:22There's so much happening

13:23in your head.

13:24So, that's one.

13:25I've also realized,

13:26Sir Butts,

13:27that this pandemic,

13:28I was thinking,

13:29because to be honest,

13:30Sir Butts,

13:31I also had that depression

13:34before I retired.

13:36So, before I turned 40,

13:38I didn't like what I was doing,

13:41Sir Butts.

13:42I've realized that

13:43we, as businessmen,

13:44Sir Butts,

13:45we have different classes.

13:47So, what I mean is that,

13:49some businessmen can just run

13:51their businesses

13:53almost forever.

13:54So, maybe,

13:55Sir Butts is in that category

13:57because until now,

13:58he was really passionate

13:59about helping businesses.

14:01Continuously, right?

14:03Allow me to help you

14:04grow your business.

14:05Yeah, yeah.

14:06You could be that.

14:07And that's how it is,

14:08Sir Butts.

14:09And I also have something like that,

14:10that I am so good at start-ups.

14:13That all of my energy,

14:15I'll put it in the start-up.

14:17But to the point that,

14:19when I've fixed everything,

14:21there's no more challenge for me.

14:23It's like I've experienced

14:24all the challenges

14:25and I've given it a solution.

14:27It's time to move on.

14:28I have to.

14:30Because what I did,

14:31Sir Butts,

14:32in my five years

14:33with the previous company,

14:35I stayed.

14:36To the extent that

14:37I became grumpy.

14:38Every day,

14:39my head is hot.

14:40That's why I became depressed.

14:41Because it's like

14:42there's no purpose anymore.

14:43Especially me, Sir,

14:44I'm fond of documentation.

14:46I'm O.C. in that.

14:47All of my problems,

14:49it's for the franchise,

14:50right, Sir?

14:51It's all written there.

14:52I'm going to write it

14:53so that I'll have a business bible

14:55after.

14:56So, I did that.

14:57So, all of their questions

14:59or their issues,

15:00all I can say is,

15:01we've faced that already.

15:03Look at our history,

15:06it's like that.

15:07So, I lost my purpose.

15:09So, it continued.

15:11My head is hot,

15:12I can't sleep,

15:13I'm not happy,

15:14I don't want to go out,

15:15I can't talk to people.

15:17And then, of course,

15:18the pandemic,

15:19you have no choice

15:20but to stay at home.

15:22Correct.

15:23It's really going to come together

15:24and our mental health

15:25will be affected.

15:26And so, I had that,

15:27Sir Butts.

15:28So, how did you manage

15:29that mental health issue,

15:31Jordan?

15:32How did you,

15:33how were you able

15:34to swim towards,

15:36you know,

15:37springing yourself back?

15:39How was that?

15:40Because,

15:41I'm sure a lot of people

15:42can relate, right?

15:43The different aspects.

15:45It's not just entrepreneurs,

15:47it's anyone, right?

15:49Students,

15:50especially those who used to be

15:52very active in social life,

15:54especially those we call

15:56party animals,

15:58those who like to go out

16:00at night,

16:01all of a sudden,

16:02they're stuck at home.

16:04So, they developed depression,

16:06right?

16:07So, you,

16:08what are the steps

16:09that you took today?

16:11Well, Sir Butts,

16:12to be honest,

16:13you know,

16:14it's hard to admit to yourself

16:16that you have a mental condition.

16:18It's,

16:19I'm just grateful

16:21that, of course,

16:22with constant prayer

16:24and communication

16:26with our Creator,

16:27that I've been doing

16:29self-assessment.

16:30Because, Sir,

16:31I know myself.

16:32That's why.

16:33So, it's,

16:34it helps that you know yourself.

16:36And when you know yourself,

16:38you also get to see

16:39the difference

16:40of who you were before

16:41and who you are now.

16:43And, why am I saying this?

16:44Because I've realized,

16:45when I started

16:47being a full-time business owner,

16:49I knew that my enthusiasm

16:51was so high,

16:52my mind was so long

16:54for the errors.

16:57Of course,

16:58we are businessmen,

17:00we don't want to make mistakes,

17:01to fail, right?

17:02My mind was so long.

17:03But, over the years,

17:05I changed a lot.

17:07In a way that,

17:08I really don't want to talk

17:10to people anymore.

17:11And, you know, Sir,

17:12as a businessman,

17:14I'm always mission-driven.

17:16But even so,

17:18my people, particularly,

17:20and this I am sharing with everybody,

17:22I'm not proud,

17:23but I thought it's worth sharing.

17:25Even though my purpose

17:27in my business is noble,

17:29because it's also helping the industry,

17:31helping them sustain their jobs,

17:33and all,

17:34I've realized, Sir,

17:36that a lot of people don't like me

17:38to the extent that they brought me to Dole.

17:40Why did they bring me to Dole?

17:42It's not because of unfair treatment,

17:44but it's because of their perception of me.

17:48So, it really hurts.

17:51I really remember my birthday,

17:52I was in Dole.

17:53So, it's like I was booted.

17:56I was even caught, Sir,

17:58because I was parked in Bawaldo,

18:00Baguintay,

18:01if you didn't really

18:03take off your shoes.

18:05So, it really hurts.

18:07It's like a typhoon, Sir Butch.

18:09But the thing is,

18:11how did I get through that?

18:13Because I could say that

18:15because I'm talking about it,

18:17the phase of my life is over

18:19where I don't want

18:21to talk to other people anymore.

18:23So, I'm past my depression stage.

18:26But I'm the type of person, Sir Butch,

18:28who doesn't like to take medicine.

18:30So, I will really not

18:32go to a doctor

18:34for me.

18:35So, I'm saying that I'm not clinically

18:37defined

18:39to have depression.

18:41But, of course,

18:43we like to use the internet.

18:45So, we saw the symptoms

18:47and they are all present.

18:50But what I look for, Sir Butch,

18:52is I look for complementary

18:54alternative medicine.

18:56I thought I'm comfortable

18:58with them.

19:00For some reason, I resonate a lot with them.

19:02So, Sir Butch,

19:04a lot of coaching sessions.

19:06And then, I went through

19:08releasing of the deep-seated

19:10stresses.

19:12And another thing that

19:14I'd like to be honest with,

19:16Sir Butch,

19:18is to accept

19:20myself fully.

19:23Because,

19:25back in the day, Sir Butch,

19:27I don't speak particularly about

19:29my sexuality because I'm scared.

19:31Because I went through a lot,

19:33Sir Butch, when I was young.

19:35You were molested,

19:37and then you were also

19:39a lot of things that hurt me,

19:41Sir, physically and emotionally.

19:43Yeah, the physical hurts.

19:45It's hard to accept.

19:47Sometimes, you're

19:49next to me and we're kissing.

19:51But again,

19:53it boils up like a volcano.

19:55Sooner or later, you never know

19:57a volcano when it will erupt.

19:59It erupts at the wrong time at the wrong place.

20:05You're able to...

20:07What I'm looking at now is actually

20:09phases. You're able to accept who you are.

20:11You're able to

20:13analyze

20:15what you're going through

20:17rather than keep on

20:19denying, self-denial,

20:21and then moving on.

20:23Again, you really now

20:25appreciate the beauty of

20:27the technology like the internet.

20:29Imagine that.

20:31For example,

20:33our time is

20:351920s, 1930s.

20:37Probably, you're

20:39at home but you can't

20:41read. You can't

20:43get help.

20:45From there on,

20:47what's your view on life?

20:49Where is now Jordan?

20:51Where is now the path of Jordan?

20:53You're now saying

20:55the joyful entrepreneur.

20:57What is this that you turned around

20:59and now coming up with this

21:01kind of campaign that

21:03you are doing now?

21:05Our transition is beautiful, sir.

21:07I hope

21:09our viewers

21:11appreciate the journey

21:13and our storytelling

21:16because I'd like to say

21:18that at this point in time, sir Boots,

21:20I think I'm really ready

21:22to talk about what I went through

21:24because again, it wasn't easy

21:26to admit it, that's one.

21:28It's also not easy to say that

21:30your healing process is still ongoing

21:32but as I told you, sir Boots,

21:34I thought I'm really

21:36prayerful

21:38and part of my process

21:40is to ask the Lord

21:42what I should do

21:44as a retired

21:46I really don't have to work, sir Boots.

21:48I really don't have

21:50to please people as well.

21:52That's another answer to my new mantra.

21:54Before, you're a people pleaser

21:56because you don't have that full self-acceptance.

21:58That's why, okay,

22:00I'll ask other people first.

22:02But now, because I thought I'm whole,

22:04I'm not perfect still

22:06and I don't want to be there,

22:08I thought I want to talk about

22:10what I went through.

22:12One of the answers I got from my prayer

22:14is I should also talk about

22:16the mental health,

22:18particularly our

22:20businessmen.

22:24Yes, that's right.

22:26I always say,

22:28an entrepreneur is like a captain of the ship.

22:30If the entrepreneur is physically

22:32and mentally sick,

22:34how will the ship

22:36run?

22:38It will go around and maybe later,

22:40the ship will suddenly

22:42sink.

22:44That's actually how the analogy of

22:46an entrepreneur is.

22:48Especially when we say,

22:50health is wealth, physically

22:52and mentally.

22:54Because a lot of people say,

22:56they keep on jogging,

22:58they keep doing a lot of visitations to the gym.

23:00What about your

23:02gymnastics in your health?

23:04Is there something like that,

23:06Jordan?

23:08Yes, there is.

23:10So that we can really

23:12get out of our mental

23:14illnesses, there are ways

23:16and part of them is regular

23:18exercise. I remember

23:20in Blue Zones,

23:22Sir Butch, we talked about Blue Zones 1.

23:24In that docu-series,

23:26the centenarians,

23:28they don't go to the gym and yet,

23:30they're still physically fit because

23:32they ascend the

23:34higher roads,

23:36attend to the regular house chores.

23:38We as businessmen, Sir Butch,

23:40I've realized that as our businesses grow,

23:42we don't do anything

23:44at home.

23:46Nothing.

23:48Especially, although

23:50an internet is a plus,

23:52but it can also be a minus.

23:56Because you're right there,

23:58everybody seems to be a sedentary person.

24:00Everyone is sitting.

24:02It's rare for us

24:04to be standing.

24:06That's true.

24:08But the thing is,

24:10we all need that.

24:12We need to sweat things out because when we sweat out,

24:14you're also releasing

24:16the negative

24:18that your body

24:20accumulates.

24:22So it can be out.

24:24Apart from that,

24:26personally,

24:28I haven't been

24:30healthy eating because

24:32there are a lot of temptations

24:34that I still can't turn down.

24:36But apart from that, Sir Butch,

24:38our mental health particularly

24:40needs exercising.

24:42Mindfulness is one.

24:44Mindfulness is

24:46about appreciating

24:48and just pausing

24:50once in a while to appreciate

24:52the things that you have,

24:54the people that are around you.

24:56That's one.

24:58We're all busy.

25:00On social media, Sir Butch,

25:02I'm sure you've also noticed that

25:04it's like a drug

25:06that makes you addicted.

25:08You just want to scroll up and down

25:10even if it's just for 30 seconds.

25:12At some point, you will realize

25:14that nothing is happening in your life.

25:16Once you finish that realization,

25:18you'll go back to your cell phone

25:20even if you don't want that routine.

25:22Social media

25:24is that addictive.

25:26We have to be mindful

25:28and really pause.

25:30Sometimes,

25:32I almost notice

25:34whether you're in a bus,

25:36whether you're in the LRT,

25:38whether you're in the mall.

25:40I think everyone is sitting right now.

25:42Nobody seems to be looking up.

25:44Everyone is like that.

25:48Cell phone oriented.

25:50There's no phone.

25:52Basically,

25:54what can your program now?

25:56You're coming up with a program.

25:58Tell us your program, Jordan.

26:00I'm sure a lot of people

26:02want to join

26:04and participate.

26:06Really, relating to

26:08what you have been telling us

26:10and sharing us.

26:12What is really the program all about?

26:14Thank you, Sir Butch.

26:16We will certainly share

26:18what we're going through.

26:20The common things that we're going through

26:22are obviously our mental health.

26:24What we need right now,

26:26apart from the fact that we have to accept

26:28that this is still happening to us

26:30because culturally,

26:32we're afraid to admit that we're stressed

26:34or that you have

26:36feelings in your mind

26:38because of the many problems

26:40you're facing every day.

26:42It's just natural,

26:44but we have to start talking about it.

26:46First, there should be an awareness

26:48about what we are going to do

26:50apart from the awareness.

26:52Of course, we have a process

26:54where we will allow our participants

26:56to also go through

26:58recognizing their current

27:00state of mental health.

27:02As they recognize

27:04that, they have to go through

27:06acceptance of who they are right now

27:08and forgiving themselves.

27:10We will have activities to do that

27:12because only when you forgive yourself

27:14that you allowed yourself to be

27:16in that mental state,

27:18that's when you're closer

27:20to healing or that's when the healing

27:22could start. Only then.

27:24Most of the time,

27:26what we see on YouTube

27:28is what we're watching.

27:30Someone told us to meditate.

27:32When you meditate,

27:34you quiet your mind, but the point is

27:36the intention is not there.

27:38We need to go through the process

27:40of forgiving ourselves.

27:42In the program, we will

27:44help you go through that

27:46forgiving session of yourself

27:48and others. Apart from that,

27:50we'll also go through

27:52meditation.

27:54I'm excited about

27:56sound bath healing.

27:58That's one of the exciting

28:00parts because

28:02the deepest

28:04traumas or stresses

28:06could be released

28:08with the help of sound bath

28:10healing.

28:12What is sound bath?

28:14That's a new word

28:16to me.

28:18You have a water bath

28:20but you have now a sound bath.

28:22What is it?

28:24Did you expound on that, Jordan?

28:26When it comes to sound bath,

28:28there are many tools you can use

28:30but the concept is

28:32the vibration of a tool

28:34when it created a sound

28:36and when it reached a certain frequency,

28:38it could release stress.

28:40That's how beautiful

28:42it is.

28:44Our first program is online

28:46but apart from that, we'll also have

28:48an in-person session.

28:50Both are equally

28:52effective but

28:54the in-person session is different.

28:56For the time being, we'll do it online.

28:58This is just

29:00for them to know and understand

29:02whether it's really for them.

29:04Tell me, when is this going to be,

29:06Jordan?

29:08It's happening on

29:1013th of August

29:12evening at 6.30pm.

29:14We'll do it online.

29:16Apart from that,

29:18in sound bath healing,

29:20we also have

29:22emotional freedom

29:24releases or EFT.

29:26Emotional Freedom Technique.

29:28There are ways to just

29:30release immediately

29:32our stresses.

29:34That's what we'll teach

29:36in our workshop.

29:38Probably,

29:40how does one

29:42get to register?

29:46Any other further details

29:48you want to share?

29:50Yes, thank you.

29:52All they have to do is go to my website.

29:54It's jordanpatente.com

29:56I'm also on all

29:58social media.

30:00It's jordanpatente.com

30:02Look me up and we have a registration form.

30:04We're actively talking

30:06about this program because we thought

30:08that a lot of people are not talking

30:10but they really want

30:12to know how to

30:14face their mental

30:16health issues.

30:18On social media and website.

30:20That's true.

30:22A lot of people are not talking but they look normal

30:24and yet they're not normal.

30:26Because deep inside, they're probably boiling.

30:28Deep inside, they're just waiting

30:30for, you know,

30:32unnecessary eruption.

30:34Especially

30:36your bosses.

30:38Maybe you think

30:40your boss is happy

30:42but he's smiling.

30:44That kind of smile.

30:46Or probably

30:48for no

30:50reason at all, your boss

30:52all of a sudden blasts you.

30:54You might wonder,

30:56why did my boss get angry?

30:58I mean,

31:00there are a lot of repercussions, right?

31:02You may lose a person

31:04because a person may not be happy anymore

31:06simply because the one on top

31:08or the superior

31:10has some problems.

31:12I mean, that can affect.

31:14Especially now, we talked about this

31:16in the past vlog.

31:18It's hard to find

31:20people.

31:22It's hard to find people.

31:24People are free now

31:26to have their own business.

31:28They rather work from home.

31:30But again, looking for qualified

31:32people, I think this is one

31:34benefit that

31:36an entrepreneur who undergoes your program

31:38of becoming the

31:40joyful entrepreneur

31:42and something that

31:44you can spread that campaign

31:46all over.

31:48So, is there an age limit

31:50for this, Jordan?

31:52That's a good question, sir Buts.

31:54This is for everybody.

31:56At the age of 7 years old,

31:58the child has already

32:00gone through something.

32:02Even that, you can just release.

32:04But of course, we're talking about

32:06entrepreneurs.

32:08If you have a business,

32:10even if you're in high school or elementary,

32:12you can join.

32:14But of course, the seasoned

32:16entrepreneurs, you know, one time,

32:18I talked to someone in USAID

32:20in one of the summits

32:22that I attended lately.

32:24He said, for micro and

32:26small business owners, this is your program.

32:28And I told him that

32:30this program is for

32:32everyone, even if they're

32:34medium and large scale businesses.

32:36There are those who went through

32:38less stress because they have

32:40all the people and the help

32:42that they need. But the point is,

32:44those who are already inside

32:46of us, those with deep roots,

32:48need to be released. Because as you said,

32:50sir, eventually,

32:52it's like a volcano exploding.

32:54You know, sir, that's what's sad.

32:56Entrepreneurs don't know

32:58that their

33:00maintenance for their

33:02cardiovascular issues,

33:04the high blood pressure,

33:06or the sudden

33:08heart attack,

33:10the source of that is

33:12stress. And stress,

33:14as simple as stress, this is already mental health.

33:16Oh, that's a little

33:18careful, right?

33:20A lot of

33:22people,

33:24let's just talk to

33:26Dr. Moso,

33:28who can also be featured here,

33:30that there are a lot of

33:32children,

33:34you know, the

33:36sickness of the old is now becoming

33:38the sickness of the young.

33:40Diabetes,

33:42heart problem,

33:44mental health,

33:46right?

33:48So, Jordan,

33:50there are two or three

33:52takeaways that you can say

33:54that you can share right now

33:56with our viewers.

33:58For those who are planning to do

34:00a business or launch

34:02their career,

34:04so they can start on the right foot,

34:06what can you recommend?

34:08Well, first,

34:10sir Butch,

34:12if you can,

34:14start now,

34:16regardless of your situation,

34:18even if you're a full-time

34:20employee,

34:22you still have to start working

34:24on your dreams, your goals,

34:26right? Because

34:28business won't be successful

34:30the moment you decide to become a full-time business

34:32owner. It doesn't work

34:34that way. So, the sooner you can

34:36start, you have to do that. That's

34:38first. Second,

34:40based on my experience,

34:42I'm not ashamed to say that

34:44at some point in my

34:46life,

34:48I was scolded by people

34:50around me, particularly my employees

34:52because of my mental

34:54health illnesses.

34:56And there are ways

34:58to avoid this.

35:00You can still be joyful

35:02and at the same time successful

35:04in your business. All you have

35:06to do really is first to become

35:08aware of it. That's second,

35:10sir Butch. And finally, sir,

35:12let's not forget

35:14regardless of your religion,

35:16to always talk to our

35:18Creator, to our Lord God.

35:20Because He places us here.

35:22Everyone has a mission

35:24in running

35:26our lives. If you're

35:28in the business,

35:30you have more

35:32influence

35:34and the industry

35:36will be better, possibly because of you.

35:38So, let's not forget

35:40to always ask

35:42for guidance.

35:44And most importantly, sir Butch,

35:46I'll just share quickly, as you

35:48say your prayer, please don't just

35:50complain or ask for something.

35:52The most important and beautiful

35:54prayer is to thank

35:56the things you have

35:58and the people

36:00around you. So, it's

36:02the spirit of being grateful

36:04to all the

36:06provisions that He has been giving

36:08you.

36:10It's beautiful what you said

36:12because it's enough

36:14to complain. Maybe God

36:16can hear your complaint.

36:18He gave you life.

36:20Today,

36:22I woke you up again and

36:24you're still breathing.

36:26But the small things may

36:28be small to us

36:30but it's really big

36:32to a lot of

36:34people. Especially

36:36whatever you have,

36:38probably you're blessed but for those

36:40who do not have what they're

36:42supposed to have.

37:08I'm sure

37:20you will be taking that up.

37:22The joyful entrepreneur.

37:26And again, Jordan,

37:28maraming inang oras na

37:30ginugol ko na sayo

37:32para may

37:34share natin sa lahat na mga tao

37:36na to join you.

37:38Really to join you and really

37:40create this kind of

37:42evolution

37:44of having joyful

37:46entrepreneur. Hindi yun nakasimangot

37:48ng mga entrepreneur.

37:50E malas daw yun pag nakasimangot

37:52ka eh. Wala nga eh.

37:54So, ganun lang.

37:56So again, Jordan, maraming maraming

37:58salamat and I really

38:00wish you all the luck and

38:02thank you for bringing to light

38:04to our blog

38:06about what mental

38:08health and what it should be

38:10done and really sharing your program.
