Get In The Game

If you have been reading this Blog then you know that we have been talking about getting a financial education and setting up a Financial Freedom Fund.

I sincerely hope that you have been doing both of these things because they are the cornerstones to becoming wealthy.

The next step, if you have not already done so is To Get In The Game, Take The Plunge and invest in something or start a business or buy a franchise or joint venture with someone.

If you have been getting a financial education and already have even a small fund to get you started and you have not taken the plunge, then maybe you are still dealing with the dragon.

Remember those Fairy Tales where if the prince wanted to marry the princess he first had to slay the dragon?

Your dragon is fear and unless you slay it you will always stay paralysed in poverty. So how do you slay the dragon? The answer may sound simple and may surprise you.

You slay the dragon by taking action. One small step at a time!

If you have to join a group of people for support as you take those first baby steps, then do it. Joint venture with someone more experienced than you. Do whatever it takes but get in the game.

And if you strike out – so what! The game ain’t over! Just get ready to go out and bat again.

That is why I say make sure you never invest more than 20% to 25% of your fund in any one investment or business. Because if you strike out, no problem, you still have funds to start again.
