How Valuable Is Your Time?

How Valuable Is Your Time?

Mey here on a cool Thursday morning, with the rain gently patting on the plants outside of my window, writing to you about one of the key questions to your financial freedom…How Valuable Is Your Time?

…to me, all of our financial freedom journey or quest really comes down to this one idea of the value of our time…

…because money isn’t what we are ultimately after when we want to be financially free…

…of course, we do need enough money to support ourselves and allow us to make choices regarding our lifestyle…

…the real indicator though of freedom is the value of our time…

…we want to have control over our own time…

…we want to be able to spend our time our way, by our own choice…

How Valuable Is Your Time?

…so, here are some questions to help you realize how much value you are putting on your time…

…most people agree that the most precious times in their lives are with their children and family…

…to be there for them for sporting events, or weddings, or just to play with your kids and share with each other on a daily basis…

…so do you take the time to do that?

Why Do You Want To Be Financially Free?

Why Do You Want To Be Financially Free?

…Mey here blogging after a great day of swimming, beach time with the family and a movie date night, blogging about Why Do You Want To Be Financially Free?

…if you are reading my blog and have a burning desire to be financially free I will now ask you again, Why Do You Want To Be Financially Free?

…you’d be surprised how many people I meet who say they want to be financially free and when I ask them why, they don’t have an answer…

…have you really considered it?

The Truth About What Happens To Those Who Become Financially Free

…think about it, when you are financially free, what will happen?

…your friends at work will not relate to you anymore, and won’t have time to hangout with you except after work, if they even have the time…

…you will have more choices than most people have…

…you will not relate to most people…

…to some, that’s pretty daunting…

…especially if you like fitting in…

…just like in the movie The Shawshank Redemption, when some inmates are released from prison after a long sentence, they don’t know what to do with themselves, or how to be happy with their new freedom…

…in Timothy Ferriss’ book The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich, he talks about when he finally achieved location and time freedom and he just didn’t know what to do with himself…

…he was sleeping and depressed for a day before he decided to go take an action – eat dinner…

…this is not the first story I’ve heard of friends becoming free, and then genuinely unhappy in the beginning, and confused…

…eventually, they find their why…
