In that book, Paolo Bediones recounted his beginnings as an entrepreneur. According to him, he went into business after realizing that not everyone can be a big star. “Showbiz is temporary,” he said. “Not everyone can be a Sharon Cuneta, Vilma Santos, or Aga Muhlach. These people made it big in showbusiness and they made it big in whatever else they endeavored in. I don’t have any delusions of grandeur that I can last that long or be that popular.”

That gave him the drive to establish himself as an entrepreneur. He put up several businesses, such as the Esthetica Dental Center, zoom.ph, a marketing company and itech ph, a solutions company of which he is President and Chief Executive Officer.

Having made a success of himself as an entrepreneur, says Paolo, it is time to give back and to help other people achieve their dreams.
