World that without paycheck



Well, most of us are brought up in the environment to study hard, get a good grade, graduated and find a high paid secured job. Job and security has and had always been the highest priority in almost everyone life in today civilization. What if a person who has a high paid job, with good benefits and government pension plan, realize that he or she need to start invest? Usually the comment response if our friend ask us about that is, keep you day time job and do a part time business, so that you still got a back up if you failed in the new arena. Having back up is good. But, always backup is killing us from giving all to archive our goal. Back up always been a strongest resistance or excuses for people to give up when obstacle set in. The point is what is the main motivation that push you to continue live on? It is security? Comfort? or freedom? For the apocryphal scenario mentioned, the person who give the feedback and the person who accept the feedback, are people who value comfort and secure above freedom. Well, it does not mean is a bad choice. It is a almost the best choice for most people, especially who has too much commitments or too much to lose and at the same time sceptical on the word of business and investing. But for those who value freedom above everything else, quit your job and focusing on the new arena with passion and perseverance, he or she could gain more important thing than just simply wealth. Because, he or she who could break through the cage of average, unchained themselves from the 8 to 5 routine, the world of pay check, 40 hours a weeks minimum routine dictate by the company or superior; he or she can see the world very few could see; a world that without pay check, a world that he or she could finally learn the essence skill of live, the skill of be able to survive at any kind of circumstances, the world of abundance. Imagine, if you rich by having a high paid job or part time business or both, and one day, a market crush, not just you but everyone has lost everything they owned, can you be able to survive? Imagine the psychological stress that hit into your life, the world of have nothing to start with. Because, the market can take anything away from you, the job, the house, the bmw, the jewellery and the money; the only thing that will always stay with you is what you learn during the process of building your wealth. The process that build up your potential. The environment and reality of without pay check that push you to go beyond your limit. It is truth that for everyone is much stronger than what we give ourselves credit for when a proper stress come into our life. You need a good gym to build a good physical. Therefore, you need a world that without pay check to make you a truly successful, coming from within type of wealthy rich tycoon. So start young while you have the most valuable thing that money could not buy - TIME.

Mistake in Investing


Is is good to know where you from, but it is more important to know where you are heading to. That is why the wind-shield is so big, and the rear mirror is small. Often people who wanted to invest but never invest, is they care to much about the pass. Yet, I agree that bad pass experience could be very harmful to people. That is why we has a psychology sickness syndrome called post traumatic disorder (PTDS). However, the bad experience is not that bad if we could see the another side of the coin. Asia richest man Li Ka Shing once said, "Never look good as too good, never see bad as too bad". Simply mean, every good experience has its drawback, same goes to the bad one. It is how we, ourselves to turn the bad one into something not bad, and helpful. Every time, I experience or heard other bad experience about investing and businesses, a.k.a mistakes, I would not trap into the cynicism atmosphere. I simply focus on what I could learn from the mistakes. We all learn from mistakes. Mistakes make us stupid once, smart forever. That's why i love to make small mistakes, and bit by bit learn from it, so I could become smarter. Once you focus on what you could learn from the mistake, you could more focus on the future, future that you dream of. The pass is passed. It will only become a memory or memoir, which in fact has very little force to dictate where you heading.

Job Security: Giving up your life's Steering



Job security is a fad idea among the middle class and industrial age people. Most of us leave school with the reality to find a high paid, jobs, good benefit, a social pension in order to survive. They think their life is in the mercy of government and big private company. A secured job is more desirable than anything include times to spend with their family. They think is the job that feed their life, but the truth is, they give up their life to the job.

Today, we are talking about democracy, freedom and human right. I would said, that is just a figment of imagination especially, today people, at least most of us are living by job security. Freedom is to do what you desire to do at any time without encroach others freedom. Do you have a freedom if you on a job? Can you choose to sleep for another 5 min in the Monday morning? Can you say no to your bosses? Can you live without your job? Are you really in control and steering your life? What if tomorrow your bosses decided to fire you? How long you be able to live without your job? Can you sell your job? Can go to see your son football game in the middle of meeting? That's the freedom i am talking about. Once we in a job, we often use the words responsibility or obligation to be the excuse to keep us on job, and scarify others we wish to do. Job become our priority because that is the only reality people believe in order to survive in today society. But, people had forgot, less than 100 years ago, most of people are small and medium entrepreneur. Everyone is so creative and survive without a job. Not until giant corporation such as Ford created by Henry Ford during early 1900s, people started to give up their small business and enrol in job and security. The transaction from the spirit of entrepreneurship to job security since early 1900s has trap most of human in giving up the steering of their life.

So, by principle definition of job security, it mean giving up control in your life. It is okay for those who like to become passenger, but if you love driving, and wish to drive yourself to the destination you desire, it is best to give up the idea of job security and start to live yourself in the world that without a paycheck. All you need to do is to get educated financially and make yourself financially free. Doing the same thing everything would not change the outcome of your life, so if you want a different life, make the move today and start doing differently.
