There Are No Straight Lines In Finance
Mapping your path to financial freedom is an exhilarating and exciting discovery. We know firsthand how motivating it is to have set targets and an achievable gameplan. But we always like to give a word of caution to those new to the journey.
One big misconception that we see over and over again is the belief that once you accomplish X goal or Y goal then life will be perfect. A lot of people naively believe that once they learn the fundamentals and get on track that the road ahead will be smooth sailing. Let us spill a secret. It won’t be.
The path to financial freedom is possible but it is not a straight path. Sometimes in the moments when you feel most on-point, a hurdle will crop up that you’ll need to maneuver around. But it’s important to remember that life happens for you, not to you! CashFlow tactics will help you with the path but you must become the person capable and willing to walk it.
Key Takeaways:
- Common misconceptions we see again and again (2:29)
- The hero’s journey (5:15)
- What happens in the abyss (7:43)
- The natural human tendency (9:40)
- What happens when you make it through the fire (11:15)
- The thing standing in your way (12:52)
