I’ve just come to discuss some pointers that lead to financial freedom.

Some may be obvious, others may be unexpected, nonetheless, they will lead you to financial freedom and are worth considering.

Without further ado, let’s get straight into unlocking the doors that are holding our wealth captive.

In the Beginning, Just Be of Service, and Give Without Expectation.

Greed is one of those things that will tear you down faster than anything out there.

Yes, we all want financial freedom and are working towards it, which is a good thing. However, one thing we forget is that we need to build trust and credibility before asking for anything. This is true for content-based business models, but not so much for e-commerce spaces.

Gather all the nuggets of knowledge that you have, write blogs, create digital products and give them away. This helps in building an audience, which is the first thing you need to make ANY digital business sustainable.

Have a Vision, but This Time, Make It Grand.

It has to be big enough, for you to be motivated enough, to chase it.

Creating a vision isn’t just imaginary, it’s figuring out what you want your life to look like in the future.

If you know what it looks like, you’ll be much more likely to achieve it. Even if that vision changes from time to time, as long as you have a vision you’re on the right track.

You might be lost in the forest, but as you, as you have sight of the mountain peak, you are clear on exactly where you need to go.

When the vision is clear, the action steps reveal themselves, and the right strategies, make themselves known.

Stop Dating/Chatting for Some Time, You’ll See How Much Time You’ll Save.

Especially if you don’t already have a sustainable financial base.

Your phone takes away much more time than you think, switching between working and chatting can really hurt your productivity.

It can be super distracting, whether you like it or not. Just try and achieve a decent level of financial freedom, and then you can date all you want.

Before accomplishing this, it simply doesn’t make sense to chat and date. Even if you started a family, you won’t be able to support them without a solid financial base.

Trust that the right person is waiting for you, but financial freedom is a must if you’d like to support your life together.

Join Forces and Build With Your Partner

Contrary to the previous point, if you have a partner but haven’t achieved financial freedom, you can always build with them.

Pair your skills with theirs and you can achieve faster, this is something that I believe in strongly. It’s a special mission that you have with your partner.

You can hit two birds with one stone, building with them and spending time together all at once, there’s nothing nicer than both of you being on the same page with life goals.

Pick a Time and Make It Extremely Productive.

This goes without saying, and it’s even more important if you have a full-time job.

Yes, we all know this, but I need to mention it because of the sheer importance it holds.

Put every distraction away because, how you use this block of time will determine how much closer you’ll be to achieving your goal.

The simplest thing you can do is to:

  1. Pick a straightforward task to do that takes you closer to your goal.
  2. Brew some coffee
  3. Put on some binaural beats
  4. Just sit, and focus on accomplishing that task
  5. After about 30 minutes, have a break

Speaking of coffee

Drink Coffee, Because It Helps You Problem-Solve And Focus.

I tell can tell you this with complete conviction, it’s tried and tested by me over and over again. The truth is that it just works. Coffee just helps with focus and productivity, and there’s countless research proving this fact.

I personally find it beneficial to go to a local cafe, I wouldn’t leave that building without having accomplished a task I set beforehand.

If you want to go the extra mile, mushroom coffee can help your focus further whilst giving you the benefit of adaptogens. Just be prepared for a weird-tasting cup of coffee.

However, less is more, according to Med decisions, try not to exceed 300mg of caffeine, because that is all you need to be focused. Anything more may have adverse effects.

Please note: I am not a medical professional.

Some Ideas Might Fail, but Keep Going

I don’t want to pretend that the journey to financial freedom is smooth. Ideas will fail, and your efforts will be wasted, but you’ve got to keep going, this way, at least you’ll have a chance at making it.

The journey to financial freedom is paved with ideas and all of them are useful, but not all of them will work for you.

If even that income stream didn’t meet your income expectations, at least you learnt something and you can guide others.

Whatever avenue to try your hand, just take it as a learning process, this way, you won’t feel the punches the obstacles give you.

Conclusion

So there you have it, looking at financial freedom in a different light can help.

Although the above points may be strange, they’ve weirdly worked for me. I can’t say for sure if they’ll work for you, give it a try and see if it helps.

Thank you for reading and I’ll see you in my next post.
