Financial freedom. 7 steps to financial freedom
Financial freedom is not unusual. If we take a good look around us, many people around us are financially free. If you don't find them among your friends, you'll probably find them among your friends.
See how to join them!
Here are 7 steps that will lead you to financial freedom
Step 1: Believe it or not.
To achieve something, you have to believe it first. As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, whatever a person's mind can invent, a person can achieve. The first step is faith.
Step 2: Change your beliefs
Beliefs are the internal "software" of our mind. Most of them are created in childhood. We believe that the sun is yellow and hot, that the grass is green, that there is a light switch at the entrance to the room, that the floor is at the bottom, etc. We believe that the sun is yellow and hot, that the grass is green, that there is a light switch at the entrance to the room, that the floor is at the bottom, and so on.
Many of these beliefs are useful because they prevent us from learning the basic laws that govern our world anew. However, some of them are destructive. So is the virus, which destroys the resources and functioning of the computer. Such beliefs are, for example: the rich are thieves; money is the source of evil; financial freedom is bullshit; rich people are rude; etc.; and so on.
Therefore, in order to achieve financial freedom, you must first change these beliefs, replace them with others.
Step 3: Financial priorities
People tend to live beyond measure, i.e. spend more than they earn. This makes society more and more indebted. Another credit, another credit card, a loan, etc. Suddenly we wake up and it turns out that the bailiff is knocking on our door.
Set your financial priorities. E.g. A is necessary expenditure, B is necessary but not necessary, C is pleasure. Plan your budget so that you first spend money on things in category A (e.g. rent), then B (e.g. a phone card), and then when it stays, C (coffee with a friend in the city).
Step 4: Set your financial goals
A man without a goal is like a shooter with his eyes closed. If he reaches the target, it is only by chance. Set your financial goals. How much do you want to earn? What exactly does financial independence or financial freedom mean to you? When will you achieve this goal?
Step 5: Determine the action plan
Once you've set your financial goals, now you can plan how you're going to get there. It's as if you were planning a trip. You determine which way to go (how to make money, e.g. investing in real estate), what are the stops along the way (smaller goals, e.g. buying the first real estate), and when and where you will finish the journey (the main goal, e.g. building a wallet of 30 real estate).
Step 6: Do something about it every day
Take at least the smallest step towards your goals every day. Act! Remember that only action can bring you closer to your goal. Visualizations, positive thinking and similar techniques help. And very much so. But they will never replace action!
Step 7: Monitor effects and correct flight path
From time to time, e.g. every month, stop for a moment. Look back and see if you are going where you want to go. Have you already reached the various stages of achieving the goal? Have you already increased your income? Where are you, to your dream destination? How much more do you need to achieve financial freedom?
When it turns out that you are going in a different direction and you are not getting closer to the goal, change your direction. Correct the flight path. Just like an airplane, which is losing its direction more and more due to side winds and unfavourable currents, corrects its flight.
By following this formula, I give you a guarantee that you will succeed.
Perseverance as the key to financial freedom
Remember one more thing. Perseverance. This is the key to success. A condition for achieving financial freedom is perseverance. You have to move forward even if your feet are bleeding and you can't do it anymore. Even when it's bad weather and you're in the mud. Even when you are already raining. Go forward and you'll get where you want to go!
