It Takes A Team
6 minute read
Hello, beautiful people from across the lands! I truly believe very little can be accomplished solely by oneself. The power of like-minded people coming together for a common goal is invigorating. Turning hopes into reality requires openness to the idea that our dream needs a team. In this post, I am going to share the benefits of having a team, how to better use your time, and 7 powerful finance experts to follow that can empower you along your financial journey.
Benefits Of A T.E.A.M
Creating this blog and exposing my financial failures is not easy but I felt it was necessary to see the change I am after.
Shifting your mindset to have the audacity to believe you can achieve your heart’s desires takes faith.
Faith believing what you need is already inside you.
The beauty in creating or connecting with a team is it can reduce the learning curve saving time, energy, and resources.
The power of technology and the information age provides the ability to connect with people from all over the world without actually meeting them.
There are Podcasts, blogs, YouTube channels, Pinterest pages, and many social channels that keep me encouraged and knowledgeable.
I am not in a position to hire a financial adviser or pay someone to help get my credit under control.
Most certainly educate yourself on managing your own money as much as possible.
I just don’t find it wise not to be cognitive of what’s going on with YOUR money.
So I follow and gain information from personal finance experts instead.
Better Use of Time
We tend to think there is not enough time in a day. If you have an iPhone check your screentime and see if you can find the time.
I replaced my mindless scrolling time on social media, TV, and radio with platforms that are empowering me to create change in my personal finance.
Playing personal finance experts Podcast episodes during a drive vs the radio.
Swap Netflix binge-watching to subscribing to YouTube Channels that are providing life-changing content that can be implemented in your life.
Listening to these influential people you may never meet can be key players on the team to financial independence.
As they tackle their financial goals your learning strategies on how to tackle your own.
With a team Together Everyone Achieves More.
All platforms mentioned are available on multiple social sites Podcast, YouTube, Pinterest, blogs, etc.…
