In this episode of Zen Business, we dissect the common stigmas about making money and how we can reclaim our purpose with money. Battling insecurity with money and finances can be deep-rooted. If you were like me as a young person, the trials of growing up with financial struggles can reflect how you make decisions throughout your whole life. Breaking the cycle of fearing money, and rather, viewing it as a valuable tool will change your whole outlook on life. Do we fear financial failure and pinch pennies, or do we take hold of the opportunity and maximize our wealth? It's a controversial topic to most when it comes to people who are millionaires. Most people either think they are evil or are our superheroes, as it is quite easy to judge from the sidelines. And If you share your dreams of becoming a millionaire, your friends and family are usually the first to tell you how ridiculous that sounds. Even with some supportive friends, you may still receive flack for sacrificing social time and partying for the grind. The truth is, the dream is not totally unrealistic for most of us with the drive, regardless of what our peers may think or say. The first step one must take towards becoming a millionaire is letting go of that voice that tells us to feel bad about making money. We've heard it all before. In order to make money, you need to spend money. But something that most don't realize is that there are far more options than letting your money sit in a bank account and collect interest, or purchasing stocks and bonds just to wait for 20-30 years to cash. While these can be tried and true methods, millionaires are millionaires for a reason, and that reason is they know that there are far more options for investing than these traditional methods.
