Hey Nate...just got yourself a new fan. It's good to hear you reaffirm some of the things I grew up acquiring and have become habits and now realized these are traits of successful leaders, entrepreneurs, self starters, highly motivated, creative, etc., leaders within themselves. And it's especially true when you find yourself having to reinvent yourself because life took a left turn and you find yourself hanging out with the wrong people making the wrong choices to the point of losing your focus to where you lose your family, your job, your home and everything else you have worked so hard for many years to attain. So now you find yourself homeless, jobless and having to start all over again at the age of 52. So those traits you mentioned are still part of you and have become ingrained in your being. So it's time to pull out those traits and put them to use. It's time to reinvent yourself and it's never too late for that. I'm going through that now and it's amazing how those skills, traits, habits, etc are still there. And no matter how homeless I am, somehow I always find a time to read a book learn a new skill watch a video watch all kinds of videos like right now I'm learning how to read repair and restore my credit I watch videos of those in the last few months I still have that trait in me.

I believe an emotional attachment to money kept me back for a long time, fear of losing the little bit of money I had, if was only when I let go of the fear that my online businesses took off

#3 is a very good point! People who only set annual goals are setting themselves up for failure. It takes a lot of dedication and effort in order to stick to it. It's easier to take baby steps starting from daily goals to monthly goals then finally annual goals😁💪

You are an extremely talented person who has positively inspired me to value my resources.

Thx Nate. Great advice. Basically I knew it but I needed to remind myself of it and to focus on it

Time is so valuable. I always say that the three irrefutable truths are that life is not a rehearsal, time IS running out and one day, too soon, it'll be too late to do all the things we want to do, so we'd damn well better make sure we've got a plan to do them! Great video.
