" With a good perspective on history, we can have a better understanding of the past and present, and thus a clear vision of the future." — Carlos Slim Helu
It's far too easy for investors to lose perspective. Whenever something big goes wrong, a lot of people panic and sell their investments. Looking at history, the markets recovered from the 2008 financial crisis, the dotcom crash, and even the Great Depression, so they'll probably get through whatever comes next as well."
Thanks for being here. I appreciate your time and I want to make it worth more than the few minutes you will invest in reading this particular post.
I promise not to be long winded and get right to it. I do have to warn you that some of the things I am going to share with you are probably going to upset you in some way. I mean no harm.
Let’s see, where should we start? I know!!
You already have $2000 to invest only you are using them in things and services that you either can do without for some time or you can simply sacrifice bunt for yourself and cancel it.
In some cases people are spending that much in a single month drinking coffee and energy drinks.
I’m proposing that you take one for the team (YOU) and do it yourself and you’ll see how fast you find extra money.
We can move forward but before we do, I want to make sure that you do understand that I wrote this for a person who is fed up with being just above average and wants to elevate. If that is you then I am glad that you are still here.
Alright Second Way
Get rid of that thing, SELL IT! Do you have some type of time waster that you can sell? Sell it, you’ll buy a sick set up later! Right now you want to grow your income and knowledge. It’s time to focus and stay in your craft.
How much would they give you for it? A couple of hundred? Maybe a little more? Well then, you’re that much closer to your goal.
Third Way
What are you good at? Can you wash trash cans for $15-20 a pop? Can you detail cars for $100-200 per car? Can you cut a mean fade for $30-50?
What are you good at?
Fourth Way
Now let’s stop the B.S you have the $2000 to invest but you’re having a mindset problem pulling the trigger on your success. The money is there in your CashApp and in your Venmo. You have the Paypal account just accumulating dust. Why aren’t you investing?
Perhaps we were both programmed to SAVE, SAVE, SAVE…
I know I was. My mom still talks to me about it to this day. I love her dearly but it was that programming that is killing the masses right now.
Right now is NOT time to save, right now it’s time to BUY in and get in at best possible prices in everything. It’s more of the mindset to me and I’ll tell you why?
If at this moment a friend would run into you and tell you a story of how he is in need to sell his car and that he thought of you because of the many, many times you had mentioned to him that you would love to own one just like it. If you really loved this car, and knew it was worth many times more than the $2,000, you would find the $2000, even if with the only intention to sale the car for profit.
If you needed some type of medicine for a loved one and it cost $5,000 and you only had $3,000, would you find a way to find the $2000?
Of course you would! We all would!
The Problem
The problem my friend is that the FEAR of being scammed and losing your money has you acting funny!
That emotion is something that grew because YOU fed it. Even if you’ve lost money in the past, you keep attracting those thoughts and sooner or later they manifest right in front of our eyes!
The real issue with you is that you are thinking too small for too small of a length of time. Give yourself permission to think 10X as big. If you’re goal is earning a certain amount, multiply it by 10. We all have to shock the brain. We all need an impulse in the opposite direction to break through the resistance in our mind.
The second part of the problem is that our own excuses all sound REALLY GOOD don’t they? If we listen to ourselves we can all pretty much determine that we are major hater of ourselves mostly. We think other people are talking about us and we don’t listen to what we say to and about ourselves.
The Solution
I shouldn’t have to write this part. I think we BOTH know what the solution is.
Get in!
I promise you this, if you don’t get in, you’ll never know! What if something great is about to happen to you but YOU mess it up? Dude, it’s $2,000, you’re not buying a house here. Give yourself a chance to learn something new. What if you turn out to be pretty damn good at it?
What if this decision changes your life and the life of your spouse, your kids, their kids!! It’s like that!
It’s the perfect time to invest!
