TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR FINANCIAL FUTURE(PIX)

TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR FINANCIAL FUTURE 1

Money matters, they say matter. I have met countless number of people over the years who claimed to be in search of jobs or greener pastures but have ended up in the rat race.The challenge is if you don't know where you are going, you will not know when you get there. If the rat race were the way to be wealthy, we would have few poor folks on earth. Many people labour endlessly and yet remain poor. What liberates is the knowledge of how to convert your labour to wealth and the understanding of what money is. In this post, I will be sharing on what money is.

So what is MONEY?
The starting point for anyone to be truly free financially is to have a clear understanding of money. This has remained a major missing link, and a lot of people mistake currency for money or the card and papers and wallets for money.

Money has been in existence before the ATMs, currencies came. If the ATM card is money, then just use the card to get anything you want. Currently, bitcoin remains the most valuable currency because of the technological solution it provides in curtailing recession. I will share explicitly on this in subsequent posts.

MONEY IS ANY MEDIUM OF EXCHANGE

Whatever you possess that you can exchange for what you need is money and not necessarily paper currency or cards. Therefore, change your paradigm from thinking of how to get 'money' to how to use MONEY(your skills, energy, ability and innate potentialities to acquire money. When you get to this level, innovation and idea will flow.

MONEY IS A REWARD FOR SOLVING A PROBLEM

Life rewards donations, not duration. There is a problem you were created to solve. Until you discover it, financial freedom remains a mirage. Nobody gets paid for identifying problems, but solving them. Become a problem solver today!

Manoj Arora in the book," From the Rat Race to Financial Freedom wrote, “Do not focus on money, instead focus on a problem that needs to be solved for the world..money will follow you as a bi-product.”

Do you get that?

In the next post, I will share on three wealth creation engines, and how to take advantage of them.

Thank you for reading and kindly drop your comments.

FINANCIAL FREEDOM OR FINANCIAL SECURITY?

In this article, I will expound on the two philosophies that determines your financial future.

Fig.1 Cashflow Quadrant

Financial Security
Everybody wants to be secured. This is what informs the choices that we make. We all go to school, to get a good grade, and then get a good job. Then, there is this mindset of climbing the corporate ladder which leans on God's nowhere.


Are you employed?
Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad  said, "In the business world there are Es and E stands for employees. And the employees, you can always tell who they are by their core values. An employee with the president, the generator of the company, will always say the same words. The words are, "I'm looking for a safe, secure job with benefits." That's what makes them employees because their core value is security."

Are you self-employed?
The other group is the self-employed. These people are soloist. They operate by themselves. They are small business owners. Imagine, they work for themselves than they could have, if they have been employed.

Do you have an automated business?
Robert Kiyosaki's rich dad said, "the B stood for big business, or like Bill Gates. For Bs define big business as 500 employees or more. And their words are different.

For instance,

a poor man says,' I cannot afford it'.
a rich man says, ' How can I afford it?'
a poor man Passes over opportunities repeatedly
a rich man takes opportunities and they are not afraid of taking risk.

The B group will say, "I'm looking for good system, good network, and the smartest people I know to help run my business." Unlike the S, they don't want to run the company by themselves. They want smart people run the company for them."

Are you an investor?
And then, the fourth of the Cash Flow Quadrant is the I. And the I stands for the investor. These are people who have money work hard for them. These people in the B Quadrant have people work hard for them. And these people in the E & S Quadrant are the people who work hard for the rich here in the right side of the Cash Flow Quadrant, for the Bs and Is.

What then is Financial Freedom?

Fig.2. Financial Freedom

Financial Freedom is when you have money, and the time to enjoy it.
Financial Freedom is equal to TIME FREEDOM+TIME FREEDOM. The only groups that enjoy this are those in the B and I Quadrants.

So if you want to be rich, learn how to build businesses, be a business owner, and learn how to be an investor.

Back to the Cashflow Quadrant.
On the left side of the Cash Flow Quadrant, these people work for security, they work for money also.

On the right side of the Cash flow Quadrant the B and I people's key value, what they want is they want Freedom, financial liberty. They don't want to have to work in a job anymore. They don't want to have to work for the rest of their lives.

Robert Kiyosaki and other big business leaders recommends Network Marketing.
Robert Kiyosaki recommends Network Marketing as the gateway to financial freedom because it helps you to earn passive income.

"I'm often asked why I recommend multi level marketing, especially when I'm not in network marketing business myself.

I'm like many people, early on, I had a very negative or close-minded attitude toward network marketing system.
But I've changed my mind. I've opened up the way to think, and I looked into the network marketing industry.

And I found some things that are extremely beneficial, especially for those people who look for changes from E and S to B and I in the Cash Flow Quadrant.

Communications and sales skills are essential for somebody in the B Quadrant. And network marketing companies, not all of them but some of them, have excellent training program that will teach you how to sell, how to communicate, how to build businesses...
Many people would not go to the B Quadrant because they are afraid of rejection. Multi level marketing teaches you how to handle your own fears, fear of rejection, and build that self-confidence. That's essential for the B Quadrant."
