A few years ago, the biggest barrier between me and financial freedom is perhaps my mindset. Back then, I thought businesses are only meant for people with big pockets, and it's better for me to save money so I can have some $$$ in case of an emergency. When I started consuming a lot of reading materials regarding investments and how to handle businesses, it is then that I realize that what lacks from me is not money but motivation and the drive to do things that I was not comfortable doing before. I saved, took out a small loan, started a printing business, and it went smooth until the pandemic hit. Until now I'm in the greens when it comes to profits on that business, and I am still financially stable (and can even retire now and live comfortably until my 60s) just because I took the risk and changed my mindset.
Well, a lot of people remains to be financially unstable because of their poor mindset. Especially for illiterate people, they never find means to improve and just accept the reality that they are born poor and die poorly. I am a product of poverty too but with good education, I have learned to adopt positive mindset that made me put where I am today. Although not totally financially stable, but I know I’m working on it and I trust the process.
If you are really that contented on what you do have today then you wont really be pushing up yourself to make yourself way more better and having that upgraded lifestyle.If you are contented on being poor and die
being poor then you wont really be minding yourself on doing things like finding ways on getting more income neither via have other sources of income or other similar means.
Financial freedom is something that is really very hard to achieve because it would really be pertaining into lots of trials and errors which you do need to pass on before you would able to achieve
such state.Its not something that you could really achieve if you dont put up much effort and dedication on things and of course on being wise too.
