It’s not about money…

time and moneyThe thing we think we crave is money, but that’s just a distraction.

What we really crave is time and freedom. When we talk about financial freedom we are getting a little closer to what we truly want but even that doesn’t sum it up well. For a start it has the word financial in it, which takes us back to money.

If we focus on the money we can end up working too hard and very long hours. Working hard is something I encourage but it’s not about long hours, it’s about working efficiently. The reason being, is that if we really want more time to do the things we love doing and spend time with our family, working long hours will not give us that (I go into more detail on this in Successful Business Minds).

So what do we do?

We could reduce our expenditure and downsize our home, car, etc so that we have less reliance on money which then allows us to have more time. That’s one option, but usually not the easiest to fully implement and it brings up feelings of restrictions which would clash with that freedom goal!

What else can we do?

We can strive for the perfect balance between time and money whilst at the same time being authentic and express who we truly are (which is the ultimate freedom!). If you say what you really feel and think, be who you truly are, and do what you love then that is success in my book (pardon the pun!).

If you are not sure how to do this then I encourage you to read Successful Business Minds (which can be bought on Kindle from amazon, or in paperback via my website, details below).

If you are not a reader, or have read Successful Business Minds and are now looking for more help to implement it all then book yourself on one of the following events:

  • Beat the Monday Blues: Finance Mastermind Programme
  • An audience with Helen Monaghan hosted by Jan Southern
