Let Financial Freedom Ring
Takeout the flag, stock up on BBQ, and spend some quality time with your 4th of July family and friends. Celebrating Independence Day is one of America’s greatest traditions—but it might just not be as grand this year, if you’re still struggling to make ends meet.
Financial freedom isn’t just an abstract idea—it’s something that’s available to everyone! I’ll give you a few good reasons to think about your plan for financial freedom.
There’s more than one way to get there.
Whether you want to get out of debt, start a business, or just have some money in the bank for emergencies, there are lots of ways to reach financial freedom. You don’t have to be rich or inherit a fortune from your parents—you can grow your way there from the ground up!
Financial freedom isn’t just about having lots of money in the bank, or being able to buy whatever you want whenever you want it. It’s about having the ability to make your own decisions and control your own destiny.
It doesn’t matter if you’re a student, a stay-at-home mom, or someone who works full-time—everyone can reach financial freedom if they set their minds to it!
So how do we get there? How can we grow our way out of debt and into prosperity? Keep reading!
Financial freedom doesn’t have to be a lofty goal—you can grow it from the ground up.
It doesn’t matter if you’re starting with nothing—you can build your own path toward financial stability and independence by taking small steps every day. You don’t need a college degree or inheritance to achieve financial freedom; all you need is commitment and dedication!
“If you only have once source of income, you are one step away form poverty.” Warren Buffett
It takes multiple streams of income to be financially free. As Warren says, if you only have one, you’re done! The majority of Americans that are in financial trouble get 3 things wrong:
-
They only have a single income stream
-
They’re trading too much time for far too little pay
-
They lack financial discipline
Sound familiar?
Money gives you options and eliminates anxiety.
I want to challenge you to think about another kind of personal freedom this Independence Day. Freedom from your anxieties surrounding money. Freedom to schedule your day how you want, not how you’re told.
I know that’s a bold statement, but I’m here to tell you that it’s true.
When it comes down to it, money is just a tool—a way of getting what you need or want in life. And if you don’t have enough of it at times, then that creates anxiety for sure! But if you’re worried about not having enough money because of the things it can’t buy… well then that’s just a waste of energy.
It’s important to remember that when we feel like we don’t have enough money, it’s usually an indication of something else: an underlying belief about our worthiness or self-worth. It could also mean that we’ve been conditioned by society’s messages about what makes us valuable as humans beings—and so our self-esteem suffers when we don’t have enough money to fulfill those expectations on top of all the other roles we play in society like parent/child/spouse.
Are you ready for a change?
If you want to reach your goal—if you want to escape the shackles of financial obligations and finally have the freedom you crave – there are ways to do just that. But it will mean changing your mindset, living below your means, setting and achieving goals, and learning from your past mistakes. So, are you up for the challenge?
