Your Way to Financial Freedom

 

The Power of Compounding

Obtaining the financial freedom and abundance you deserve is easy. The secret to getting beyond scarcity is to start beyond it by feeling a sense of abundance right now and living your life as if you already were financially independent.

1. Make it a must Give yourself a compelling future that makes it impossible for you to fail. My must for financial independence was the birth of my son and my desire to give him an extraordinary quality of life.

2. Get hungry Stop blaming everyone else. Set your goals, make them a must and commit to making the necessary changes now.

3. Add value to other people’s lives Remember, your income is in direct proportion to your contribution.

4. Don’t be a victim of the “tall poppy syndrome” Other people may want to chop you down to their size, but don’t let that happen!

The Power of Compounding

Compounding occurs when you invest money and allow it to continuously reinvest itself. With this strategy, you’ll realize explosive growth beyond your wildest imagination.

Examples:

• In an 18-hole golf game, if you bet just 10 cents on the first hole and double your bet every hole thereafter, the last hole will be worth $13,107.20. No matter how little you start with, you must start now! If you wait until the third hole to begin, betting on 15 holes instead of 18, the total comes to only $1,600.

• Saving $150 a month ($5 a day) at a 15% annual return for 30 years yields $1,051,000. 

• Saving $250 a month in that same period of time produces $7.8 million

• Investing $100 a month at your child’s birth at a 15% rate of return results in $110,000 when the child turns 19. Leave it alone, and it grows to $9.6 million when he or she is age 50, $32.9 million at age 60, and $158 million at age 70!

• UPS deliveryman Ted Johnson never made more than $30,000 a year but left a legacy of more than $70 million!

Statistics show you’re going to live a long time. What are you going to do when you get there? Handling your finances is critical, and compounding is the ticket, so start investing now. If you’re not willing to take a dime out of a dollar today, you won’t be anymore likely to take a hundred thousand out of a million later.

Learning from adversity

 If they knew that every form of defeat, and all failures, bring them the seed of unborn opportunity, they would keep on fighting and win. Success usually is but one short step beyond the point where on quits fighting. Failure is a man made circumstance. It is never real until it has been accepted by man as permanent. Failure is a state of mind; Therefore, it is something an individual can control until he neglects to exercise this privilege. Failure brings a climax in which one has the privilege of clearing his mind of fear and making a new start in another direction. Failure proves conclusively that something is wrong with one's aims or the plans by which the object of these aims is sought. Failure is the dead end of the habit-path one has been following, and when it is reached it forces one to leave that path and take up another, Thereby creating a new rhythm. It gives an individual an opportunity to test himself wherein he may learn how much will power he possesses. Failure als...
 All great leaders in every walk of life are highly sexed, but they follow the habit of controlling their sex desires, switching them into a driving force behind their occupation. The person who has self discipline understands the emotion of sex, respects it, and learns to control and transmute it into contructive activities. Q: Just what damage is there in over-indulgence of sex? A: The greatest damage is that it depletes the source of man's greatest driving force, and wastes, without adequate compensation, man's creative energy. Controlled sex supplies the magnetic force that attracts people to one another. It is the most important factor of a pleasing personality. It gives quality to the tone of voice and enables one to convey through the voice any feeling desired. It serves, as nothing else can serve, to give motive power to one's desires. It keeps the nervous system changed with the energy needed to carry on the work of maintaining the body. It sharpens the imagination...

THE SUCCESS HABIT

“Success is simple. Do what’ s right, the right way, at the right time.”  —Arnold H. Glasow The choice we face is whether or not we want to form habits that get us what we want from life. If we do, then the Focusing Question is the most powerful success habit we can have. Whenever the outcome absolutely matters, I ask it. I ask it when I wake up and start my day. I ask it when I get to work, and again when I get home. What’s the ONE Thing I can do such that by doing it everything else will be easier or unnecessary? And when I know the answer, I continue to ask it until I can see the connections and all my dominoes are lined up. Obviously, you can drive yourself nuts analyzing every little aspect of everything you might do. I don’t do that, and you shouldn’t either. Start with the big stuff and see where it takes you. Over time, you’ll develop your own sense of when to use the big picture question and when to use the small-focus question. The Focusing Question is the found...
