Hello my friends!! Do you ever feel as if you are traveling on a road with no stop signs, no traffic lights and no exits? believe me when I tell you that you are far from alone. There are many days I wake up aimlessly rushing to a job that I have no desire for, or as my brother puts it ” someone else’s dream”. Of course we rush to this job everyday, this job pays our phone bills, light bills, car notes and helps us buy our weekly groceries. However there has got to be something else out there, something we were meant to do other than get up everyday to go to a remedial job! What is our purpose? The bible says we were all created to serve god, to live a faithful life and to devote our lives to a supreme being. By all means if you are religious, I am in no way trying to denounce what you follow. I believe we all have to believe in something or someone, anything or anyone who can help us find our purpose.
By no means have I found what my purpose is, but I can say that it is definitely not waking up everyday and rushing to work for an industry that I do not believe in. My purpose is to serve those whom I love, to ensure that I live everyday as if it was my last day on this earth and to ensure my kids grow up to be humble and caring towards others. A lot of us chase luxury & riches and i am Not knocking that, I’ve just learned that as long as you follow your dream all the material stuff will follow. Don’t get me wrong, I am not telling you to quit your day job. The society we live in today has boxed us into having the best phones, the coolest cars, the waviest clothes, etc. So we must find a way to detach our minds from these things so that our souls can live free.
If your joining me today and you are reading this piece, I ask that you challenge yourself to do a couple things. EDUCATE yourself on being financially free, learn about ASSET allocation. Learn what LIABILITIES are, learn how to manage your money so you can plan your financial future. READ books that help you become a better you, currently I am reading a book named RICH DAD, POOR DAD ( I will leave a link at the bottom of the page if you want to check out the book). This book has completely destroyed anything I have learned about finances in school and is giving me the actual blueprint on how to manage my financial future. I am sure you are wondering why I am so passionate about finding financial freedom, and why I want you all to be as well. Simply put because when we are financially free, we can focus our mental power towards our passion.
Whatever your passion is, be it arts, music, writing, editing, whatever that may be. We must all follow our passion and must not allow society to dictate what our future is.
We must all find the EXIT out of the RAT RACE we are on!
