Your Roadmap to Financial Independence Today!

Today I have the privilege of sharing with you the connections that I have been making over the last three months!  We know that our network plays a big part in our net worth and one of the ways we begin to meet and connect with people is through events.

  

I have brought together some of the best financial minds who are willing to share with you their tips, tools, and practices so you can begin to put them into play in your life.  As I have been working with these people I have been touched by their stories, learned so much from their work, and have been honored to spend time with them.

This is why I am super excited to personally invite you to this very special event The Mastery of Money – Your Roadmap to Financial Independence Today.    This event is my gift to you.

So often I hear people talking about financial independence as something that is far off in the future and will only happen when life events allow it to.  I promise you that is a myth, stop believing it.  You can begin to create financial independence today, no matter where you are starting from.

 

What if you heard the one thing that was a game changer for you?  How would your life be different if you knew with confidence that you were on the right road to financial independence?  This is what is possible for you in this event so make sure you register now!

Put yourself on your calendar, schedule in this free event,  to make sure you are able to finish 2013 strong and be in the best possible position for 2014.  I know I am glad I did!

Are you in Catch Up Mode?

Money will not come into chaos.

Often when people first come to work with us they are in what I call catch up mode. Typically they have all their receipts, because somewhere along the line they learned that was important, but balancing the check book was never a priority. When it comes to tax time they would create an elaborate spread sheet and total what they had the energy to work through for expenses. Income then was whatever was deposited in the bank. I will guarantee you that if this is your method of accounting you are paying way too much in tax and if you have an entity your corporate liability veil will not stand up. As well, you may be leaking money in ways you are not aware of.

"Learn to do paperwork or be poor."

Loral Langemeier

Get your numbers current, and keep them current, so you can always make decisions from fact, not emotion, and you can plan proactively for tax.

Money is a relationship, just like everything else. In order to have a good relationship with it you must spend some time with it. If keeping track of this kind of information on a daily, weekly or monthly basis is not your strong point, then hire some help—it will be well worth your investment. What is important is that you have a current Profit and Loss statement and a current Balance Sheet to review on a monthly basis whether you create them yourself or you have someone else do it. From these statements you will learn to read your numbers to hear the story they are telling you. You will learn to make decisions from them and in no time you will look forward to receiving them, yes, it can even become fun!

When you learn to focus on the revenue, whether that be in business or in wealth building personally, you will create revenue. It's not just about making money it’s about keeping it and putting it to work for you over and over and over! Current financial reports are the vehicle through which you do this. Imagine what life could be like when your cashflow is flowing in the positive on a regular basis and your decisions become about growth and not sustainability because you know sustainability is covered!

Getting started is always the biggest step. Remove all the judgment and just begin. The good news is once your system is in place it is easy to keep in place. The rewards are worth the effort! If you would like to explore different systems so you can create one that works best for you or if you have one and want to freshen it up let us know, we are always here to help.

What is your "MONEY" story?

Pay Yourself First - Of all the tips in wealth building this is absolutely my favorite.

It is also the most powerful tip when it comes to wealth building. Not only will it empower you, it will also make you wealthy. So not to take anything away from Nike but the truth is you just have to do it!

So what does it mean to pay yourself first? It is taking a specific amount of money on a consistent basis and putting it to work making money for you forever. The initial amount is not as important as the consistency to begin with. I know for myself I had every reason in the book why I had to spend those dollars rather than leave them in a wealth building account. Until one day it became crystal clear to me that without developing this habit I was not going to achieve the financial goals I had set for myself. I have lifestyle goals, contribution goals and legacy goals; all of which require money.

Have you ever heard the question which would you rather have today; a penny doubled every day for 30 days or a million dollars? The answer to this question is actually the penny.

Albert Einstein taught us why when he taught us the power of Compound Interest. Compound Interest is a mathematical concept we learned in grade school. The magnitude of the power of this concept is not something you will realize unless you put it to work in your life. You must experience it!!!

So my question to you is: If you are not doing this, why are you doing what you are doing? When you get up in the morning to do the work you are doing what is your why for doing it? Paying yourself first is a mindset. It is one of the ways the wealthy become wealthier. There is something in the "doing" of this that will affect how you think about and behave with money. It's not a get rich quick scheme. It will make you wealthy. Make it a habit and see what happens.

We would love to hear from you - Are you paying yourself first? How would this look? please share with us in the comments below.

What is your level of resistance?

When it comes to learning new things we all have a level of resistance that sounds something like this - new things are hard, messy, and possibly irrelevant. Have you ever tried to a new hair style? The hairdresser does this amazing job. You look great walking out of the salon but the next morning after your shower you can’t remember how to make it happen. So what do you do? Well you try and each day it gets easier and better and finally your friends are complimenting you on your great hair style!

Financial literacy is no different. Truth; you never have to know more than basic math – addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Once you begin down the road of learning it. It will build on itself and it won’t be long before the things that initially felt hard and messy are all of a sudden old hat and you are ready to build on them with additional ideas and tools.

Financial literacy is a learned skill. What that means for each of us is that it is possible for us too. It does not matter how old we are, how much money we have in the bank or what our work is, we can learn this.

So why would you want to learn financial literacy? They say money can’t buy you happiness. In my experience money touches every area of our lives. When we are not driving the bus it is driving us, taking up time and energy that we could be using to create the things and experiences in our lives that truly bring us joy.

Two of my favorite authors for financial literacy are Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad Poor Dad and Loral Langemeier, author of The Millionaire Maker.

"Most wealth is inconspicuous. The man down the street driving the nice car and living in the mansion could easily have greater debt and a lower net worth than the stealthy and wealthy plumber who drives a beat-up truck but seems to work only when he doesn't feel like fishing." Loral Langemeier

“We go to school to learn to work hard for money. I write books and create products that teach people how to have money work hard for them.” Robert Kiyosaki

Invest in learning. Learning can come in many forms: reading, webinars, classes, or coaching. For a lot of us, finances can be a scary topic. Fear is nothing more than a lack of knowledge on a topic. With the Internet today the world of knowledge is at our fingertips. Begin to explore.

Millionaire Mindset

Associate with like-minded people

  

We are all part of the same puzzle!

Did you know that you will become the average of the five people you spend the most amount of time with?  We become like those we spend our time with.  So look to your left and look to your right and decide if how those around you are living is how you want to be living.  It’s not about right and wrong, it’s about what do you want.  What is your dream, your vision, your passion and are you living it.

Be clear what you want to achieve and then find the people who have already achieved those results. Check in to see if they would be willing to mentor you or research them to see if you can learn how they achieved their results.  People love to help others. Don't be afraid to reach out.  People who have what you don't have simply think differently than you do.  It is impossible to know what you don’t know so it takes the willingness to reach out and learn from others.  Have the courage to take conscious risks to begin to achieve the life you want.

In his book “Secrets of The Millionaire Mind” T Harv Ecker describes steps that each of us can take to master the inner game of wealth.  It is interesting to realize that the things we want most in life are always on the other side of doing something new.  When we are clear enough on why we would want to create the wealth then we will be willing to learn new things and take new steps.  The really good news is you can start today from wherever you are.   Contact Sue

Learning Happens in the Journey

School supplies are already showing up in the stores. It feels like summer just began; yet here we are already beginning August! When I was younger, I loved going to the office supply store: all the new pens and pencils, new workbooks—just ripe for creating something in. These were the tools that would get used to record new learning. Learning is one of the things in life I still truly enjoy. The sparks of new thought married with my own hopes and dreams always seems to breathe new life into me; a breath that brings hope, joy and clarity--kind of that feeling you get at the beginning of any new relationship. There is almost giddiness to it.

With all dreams and goals, there comes the action that will actually create the results.
For so many years, I have been so focused on the results. Everything I did was for the
end result. Focusing this way does create results, however, the fullness of life and greatest impact of the results happens along the way. It is in the daily practicing and practicing where we get stretched. This is where we become who we are. This is where we meet others. This is where, when we are grounded and open, we can catch insights that are greater than anything we could have come up with on our own. The truth is there are always results. The question is, “was I aware of all of them?”
