I would like to give some thoughts on the quest which I am undertaking, where that point began and where I hope it will take me. Not long ago the new year was approaching and a relative of mine came to my house to talk with me and my wife about our financial goals and some services he could do for us. Long story short I didnt sign-up for anything but it really got me thinking more about my own financial knowledge, I decided that I needed to get more self education on the subject.
Driving home from work a couple days later I thought that I would turn on the radio in hopes of finding some kind of talk radio discussing finances, business and such. Well I ended up catching the end of Free Capitalists Radio and was really drawn into it. The next day at work I downloaded a podcast and since then have simply been feasting on all the good thoughts and ideas flowing from the Free Capitalist movement.
I picked up the book “Why we want you to be Rich” by Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki, Along with what I read on other entrepreneurs blogs such as www.bornentrepreneur.com and millionaire mommy and my brain has turned on. Its true that once a mind is expanded by a new idea it never returns to its smaller shape (ok i quoted that wrong for sure). I’m not saying that I concur with evything I hear and am blindly looking for a way to get rich, it is the exchange of ideas that have really fueled me.
For the previous 18 months I have been waiting and worse expecting to receive wealth and glory from my job. Nothing at all against my work, which I love a lot, but I have been waiting for my company to make it so that I could ride on the coat tails and enjoy the pleasures of all my wild dreams. Well now that I have woken up I realize that I am the only one who can start the journey that I need to be following. That is a journey of education, self-exploration and discovering others ideas.
I am now learning to take control of my life, to take responsibility for EVERYTHING that happens to me, to realize true freedom, to accept truth, I’m going to allow myself to try and to fail, to learn and to grow. I am seeking to understand the principles of prosperity, where real value comes from and how to transition from consumerism to being a producer.
The greatest rewards will come from the personal growth and the ability to help others. The true wealth of family , friends and a closeness to God are the treasures that I will seek. Peace, prosperity and Positive vibrations to you all.
