The Bibingka Mindset for LAUNCH

In preparing for SUCCESSFUL LAUNCHES ...

• you must have a COUNT DOWN towards the BIG DAY!  
• But this is NOT ENOUGH!
• YOU MUST HAVE a COUNT UP as well!

This is the BIBINGKA concept / mindset I am proposing for SUCCESSFUL SITE START-UPS and Church Launches at His Life.

BIBINGKAS cooking article ...

Bibingka is a type of rice cake native to the Philippines.

This is traditionally made from galapong (milled glutinous rice), 

coconut milk, margarine, and sugar.

The traditional way of cooking Bibingka is unique and quite time consuming.

The mixture is poured on a clay pot lined with pre-cut banana leaf.

A special clay oven known as “Bibingka oven” is needed to bake this rice cake.

The clay pot is placed between the layers of the Bibingka oven and lit charcoals (locally known as “uling”) are placed below and above the clay pot to evenly cook the mixture.

So how will you LAUNCH -- Bibingka Style?
ANSWER:  you must place your LAUNCH DAY
below and above your Count DOWN and Count UP right there in your Calendar!

Count Down
and
Count Up
----------------------

Example:  If you have a target LAUNCH date of May 18, 
You must have a COUNT DOWN TOWARDS THAT DAY, BUT ALSO HAVE A COUNT UP AFTER THAT DAY!


Why?

• The TOWARDS that DAY Timeline will help you become Focused, Prepared and Confident.  This happens with lots of praying, planning and envisioning about the BIG DAY that is coming!
• The AFTER that DAY Timeline will help you consolidate, follow-through and keep the harvest you've got during your LAUNCH BIG DAY!  You must see the next WEEKS up ahead or the 1st 50 Days after the LAUNCH.  If you do not have this -- then you will just have a SUCCESSFUL LAUNCH but never will have a HEALTHY Movement!

So what will you do?

1. Have a Count Down TOWARDS your LAUNCH DATE (at least 12 Days -- 20 Days of Timelining).  For Big Events, it could even be 6 to 8 months before the LAUNCH.  This must be itemized, written, posted, prayed for and announced.
2. Have a Count Up AFTER your LAUNCH DATE (at least 30 to 50 Days of Timelining). This will make all the difference!  This composes your follow-ups, consolidation activities, placing people in LifeGroups and more!
