How to Choose
Your Future
Billy and Akaisha Kaderli
In pursuing
your dream of
financial
independence, you will find that some things
will support you in this quest, and others by nature will be
obstructions.
Dream killers
If you are afraid to
stand out from the crowd with either your opinions or actions, are resistant to
trying something new, have a
consuming
need for safety or an uncontrolled desire
to spend, these above mentioned perspectives won’t allow you to break free from
the mundane. If you allow Groupthink or peer pressure to manage your affairs,
have a life filled with all the things you “can’t do,” and have a penchant for
believing the negative news on TV and websites, you won’t find the motivation or
energy to move towards a life of your own choosing. It will “seem” that
everything is conspiring against you and holding you back.
Allow yourself
some room to dream Anger, jealousy and
other self-limiting emotions won’t provide you with the ticket to
your
freedom.
You have to break out and stand apart from those constricting and narrowing
points of view.
Otherwise, your
dream life will never happen.
The Motivators
As childlike or
unsophisticated as it may sound to you, your passion for a dream and the
persistence you apply to making that dream a reality is the fire that will get
you there. Not everyone is born wealthy, has a top notch education, or a
supportive family structure. How you apply yourself to your future makes all the
difference in the world.
Couple this with knowing
who you are and what matters to you. Being honest with yourself and with those
whom you love and the willingness to learn from mistakes is invaluable. Use any
miscalculations as stepping stones, not as reasons to hold you back or to never
forgive yourself. If you feel that you have bungled something, make a new choice
or an adjusted one and move in the direction where you want to go.
The world is a
big place offering lots of options This way or that way?
With every decision
there is a “Y” in the road. Take it! There is no wrong decision and if your
choice does not pan out make another.
Don’t be made powerless by indecision or the “paralysis of analysis.” Learn and
move forward. Drop what doesn’t work - and move forward again.
Be open minded to
options and opportunities that present themselves and be willing to try
something new to make your plan come to fruition. Consider exotic combinations
and out-of-the-box solutions to any challenge you might encounter. Let’s face
it. Most people do what is expected of them and follow a bland plan. They are
not used to considering a variety of aspects which can lead to novel ideas and
creative solutions. And, I doubt they are reading our website and books.

A New Perspective
Be YOU-nique. Utilize
your personal creativity and hold the opinion that there is enough – for you and
for everyone. If you believe in limitation and lack, that will be what you
look for, and we guarantee you will find exactly that.
Profitability begins
within – try these suggestions
Find someone who is
successful in ways that embody your dreams and learn from them. Study the terms
utilized in the
world of finance, and work with
tools and
calculators to analyze
your monetary situation in all areas of living. Today with a wide variety of
information available on the internet, there is no reason you cannot become your
own financial advisor.
Working
together, going in the same direction Having a spouse or
partner who is on the same goal-and-financial page as you are, is an invaluable
asset. This puts two of you going in the same direction instead of fighting each
other at every turn. A compatible partnership will provide you with double the
brain power, enhanced ability to save or invest and increased motivation. Plus,
it will be more fun!
Be willing to be
inspired. Cultivate healthy attitudes and perspectives of your future that open
you up, not close you down. Continuously choose to move in the direction of your
dreams and make them happen.
Your future is YOURS.
Don’t give it away to anyone. Believe in yourself and make a commitment to a
life that YOU want to live. Persistence and determination can take you anywhere.
Follow YOUR Dreams.
