Dear Me, Being Broke is No Longer Acceptable.
Seriously. Your time has expired.
My 2021 goal is progress. Everyday my goal is do something that helps me change my life in the direction I am happy and proud of. I decided to up my game towards progress in June by setting a theme for learning every month. This month of August 2021 my goal is learn as much as I can about personal finances. And then publish one post every week about what I have learned.
I have one rule — it has to be free.
Why? Because of the wealth of knowledge in podcasts and on YouTube. I’m not (yet) looking for high level training with terminology that I don’t understand or is targeted toward a financial level I don’t have yet. I am looking for knowledge that can help me build stronger finances and wealth.
Money is a resource. Don’t be afraid of it. — Ryan Serhant on Lewis Howes School of Greatness.
There are two things I knew about money in university. One. I needed it. Two. I didn’t have it. Fast forward to July of 2021 — nearly five years out of university for me — that is what I still only really know about money. Almost everything I buy I have to justify that I need it. I am no longer a student, yet I am still living like I am.
