We all dream of one day, when we no longer have to look at the right side of a menu card on a family date in a restaurant or price tags in a shopping mall or just winning the lottery and putting the daily chore of earning money behind us.
But in the real world, how many can realize this dream? A small percentage of the entire population! A lot of people sit on the sidelines of life, hoping that their dreams will come true one day but nothing happens in life unless you take action.
The major difference between those who only dream and those who realize their dream is a simple ‘skill’. Skill to find ways where you don’t work for money but money works for you.
The most common way to make good money in our modern world is to do a job or work hard for someone else. But have you ever wondered why so many people work so hard without ever achieving anything significant financially?
Have you ever noticed that a person who does financially well tends to continue to do it more successfully? And how someone who is in financial distress tends to continue to be a financial failure?
Well, the difference is ‘financial goals’. People with financial goals achieve financial freedom because they know what they’re doing with their money. Others believe that their life is shaped by circumstances and things happen to them.
You may have forgotten, but you are the master of your life. This means that you have the power to make your own ‘choices’. You weren’t born to live an average life and you all have an infinite potential waiting to be unleashed.
But “for things to change you have to change, if you continue to do what you’ve always done, you’ll continue to get what you’ve always got”. Investing can help you reach big financial goals. You can ‘make use of your money to make more money by earning interest, dividends, and capital gain by buying assets that appreciate over time.
It’s never too late to become an ‘investor’.
‘Fear’ can take control if you are waiting too long to set investment goals, but that should go away once you set the plan into motion. Remember that all investments start with the first rupee, whatever your age, income, or outlook.
