I started my sites with objective to make investing and personal finance easy and straightforward. But sometimes, the concepts aren't easy to describe. Take financial freedom for example; there isn't a single definition that works for everyone. On the plus side, there is something underlying that concept that IS easy to describe, and we could all use a little more of it.
Looking back on my experiences in the investing world, there is one concept that has made a huge impact on my results. Actually, it is one word...influence. Influence is the capability to change results based on wealth, talent, status, or respect. As investors, we are easy targets for people with status, talent, and wealth. And people combine those three traits in an attempt to gain our respect, and then influence our decisions.
Now imagine that you are the "influencer". You are affecting your quality of life based on your personal wealth, talent, and status. You are empowered to make investment decisions. Sounds good, right?
Most people, myself included, spend a lot of time gathering information. And don't get me wrong; it is an important step in your investing journey. We are living in the information age, and have unprecedented access to knowledge. But knowledge itself is not enough. You need to apply that knowledge and make it work for you and your investments. Watching my money make more money is one of the most satisfying feelings I've experienced.
And I'm here to tell you that you can do the same thing! You have the ability to use your personal power to influence your prestige, wealth, ability and position. Your actions have a tremendous, life-changing impact on your home, career, and personal finances. I read stories every day about people who have overcome great obstacles by leveraging the incredible power residing within all of us.
Use this article as a reminder of the influence you already possess. It is not a new idea; in fact you already do it every single day. The example you set influences children, co-workers, and even your bosses. So why not apply that same power of influence to your personal finances and investments?
Go beyond thinking about investing, practice W.A.C.A.D.A.D. (Words Are Cheap, Deeds Are Dear), and exert some influence! You will never forget the first time you have money left over at the end of the month and don't know what to do with it.
Now that you know more about influence, I need you to help me do just that. My site has come a long way, but I am still just starting out. Consider clicking on the ads scattered around the site or sharing a link, in order to help me expand the influence of my safe investing message. Thank you for your support. It is because of people like you that I am able to have a site in the first place, and help those who are trying to help themselves.
