Your Roadmap To Financial Success
Now I’ve given you the first 2 things you need to start setting your goals for financial freedom. I’ve given you the 5 levels of financial freedom and I’ve given you the exercise to help you learn where you stand in terms of financial independence. Now the next part is where we get to have a little fun.
Financial Reality
If confronting your financial reality was sobering and overwhelming, now is the time to look at the other side of things. Now you get to determine what you want in life – what you’ll have when you’ve reached your financial goals, thanks to Jamie McIntyre’s ingenious (yet simple) 21st Century Academy program!
Defining What You Want To Achieve Financially
This exercise is really fun, but you should keep yourself grounded enough to be realistic. Unless, of course, shameless amounts of money and belongings are your goal; in that case you should be honest and include it!
This exercise for setting financial goals for financial independence is just a brainstorming session. It will help pinpoint your definition of financial success.
Just take about 5 minutes and list the things that you want. The things that you will use the wealth you create to buy, do, and experience. List the things you want to
• Own—like a house, car, fine art, jewelry, a boat or yacht…
• Give—charities you want to support, philanthropic causes, a house or car to your parents or siblings, maybe your kids…
• Experience—a vacation, a trip, a seminar…
• Achieve economically—like reduce your debt, cash money in the bank, a big net worth, a continuous stream of annual investment income, business profitability…
Now, qualify those goals. Use them to set a schedule for your wealth creation by breaking the list into short term (achieved in 6 to 36 months), intermediate (achieved in 3 to 10 years), and long term (in more than 10 years) goals.
Now What Do You Have?
What you have now is the list of financial goals that you want to achieve—and the timeline for achieving them. What you’ve given yourself is a road map that will help you realize whenever you have achieved a small or large financial success. This will be your basis for a finely tuned set of goals. As you go along and start enjoying financial success through Jamie McIntyre’s 21st Century Academy methods, you’ll be able to check off your successes and know that you are either well on your way, or you’ve arrived at financial success! Then you can join me and the scores of others in telling Jamie McIntyre just what a difference he and the 21st Century Academy have made in your life!
