Future simple

today we're gonna talk about how to make and save more money

To-infinitive

specifically mindsets and how to find your side hustle

one of my favorite books 'Start With Why'

we're gonna start talking about why it's important to know..

why you want to make money, why do you want to save money

and then go into how you're gonna make money, how are you gonna save money

talking about mindsets, habits, as well as lifestyle habits

and then we're gonna go into what can you do to make and save more money

this is where we're gonna talk about how you can find your side hustle

how can you turn your dream job into a career

and the people who have done it before to take inspiration from

the first and most important thing is to find your North Star

find your 'why' or why you're doing what you're doing

specifically when it comes to wanting to save money and wanting to make money

how badly do you want to save and make more money

for what reason do you want to save and make more money

something rooted in kindness and something bigger than yourself

will probably take you much further in the long-run

compared to something that's rooted in greed and yourself and the things that you want

but at the end of the day.. we all have our own needs

we all have our own internal motivational driving forces

so figure out what that is and then you'll be able to do everything else

the more specific you are with your 'why'..

the more you will be able to subconsciously and consciously guide yourself to your goal

specifically making more money and saving more money

when I was in high school.. I wanted to be financially independent

or I want to make some money for myself so that I could go to EDC

and so that I could go out and do stuff and have fun with my friends

because I didn't want to keep taking money from my mom

because taking money from my mom means that she has control over me

so if I make money for myself then I can do what I want to do with it

I can spend my money however I want to spend it

I wanted to be financially independent so that I can fully support myself

and so that I can start giving money back to my parents

not that my parents need money but to me..

them having raised me and supported me emotionally, financially, physically like..

I want to give them the life that they gave me but like give back 100x

so be it my attention, be it my presence, be it my love, be it my anything

including finances like.. I just want to shower them with love

and this isn't to say that like money = love

but it's like.. it's a part of it you know

so a really good book to read to find your 'why' is 'Start With Why'

and then I think he has a new book that's called something like 'Find Your Why'

what are you going to do with your life..

and your lifestyle, and your habits, your spending habits..

what are you gonna do so that it'll allow you time to make more money

and it'll allow you the opportunities to save more money

so I think what this really comes down to is

what are you willing to give up and what aren't you willing to give up

I really like the saying where it's you can have it all but not at the same time

at different points in your life you're going to prioritize

if making money and if saving money is what you want to do..

for example how are you gonna spend your time

are you gonna spend your time going with your friends

or are you gonna spend your time trying to work out

and trying to find your 'why' so you can figure out how you're gonna support your 'why'

and what you're gonna do to fulfill your 'why'

and then here too.. it's like spending habits..

what are you willing to give up? what aren't you willing to give up?

if you just need to have your coffee from your favorite coffee shop every single morning

but then cut expenses in other areas of your life where you can cut

so just asking yourselves these questions of..

what are you willing to give up and what aren't you willing to give up?

so time is something more macro which is something that's broader

and giving up your daily coffee or not.. that's something more micro

these are just examples to show you guys that under the macro umbrella..

there's time, there can be pride, there could be ego

there could be your sense of self or this like idea of yourself

that like you need to be perfect and you can't fail because

when it comes down to what you want to give up and you don't want to give up

you might not want to give up that image of yourself but..

and I rarely tell you guys what to do and what not to do

but I feel like if you're not doing things because you're afraid of failure

that is one thing that I'm gonna tell you guys
