There are constant forces in the world that try to convince us that certain goals are not possible. If we accepted this way thinking how do we enjoy electricity, planes, or personal computers today? All of those human inventions were considered outrageous at the time! If Thomas Edison, the Wright Brothers, and Steve Jobs decided that their ideas were NOT possible where would we be? The recent news surrounding Virgin Galatics space project reminds me of this discussion. The companies recent crash would have most people giving up on this idea. Rather than give up, Richard Branson continues to move the company forward, and is going to be the first one to fly commercially.
If you are currently hitting a roadblock, think about the people in your life who you are creating your business for. Maybe you want to make your family proud. Hone in on those types of feelings, because they are the ones that allow people to keep going during incredibly difficult scenarios.
Emulate Who You Want To Be -
Who do you want to become in this world? This is a question I find myself asking a lot these days. All too often I see people who have not asked themselves this question. Maybe you want to be a doctor, business owner, scientist, construction worker. Whatever profession entices you find out who are the best in that field, and figure out what they do better than everyone else. There are many examples of people in history and at present that we can emulate. It is up to YOU to decide which path to choose.
I've been blessed to have exposure to some of the most successful business men and women in the world. There are clear similarities between these individuals on personal finances. One very important factor is not spending beyond your means! American culture has convinced everyone that you constantly need more of everything. The individuals who can afford everything are the ones who save up during the journey. You need to think about the threshold of how much you'd like to spend in this life. Based on that response, there are certain goals of how much to save an invest so that you can enjoy the finer things in life.
Have a fantastic week!
Best Wishes,
Enterprise Warrior
