Deciding Whether to Invest in Yourself and/or Your Business

PREACHHHHHHH πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ€‘πŸ€‘

”I just graduated college with $100,000 in debt”, yeah people clap, celebrate and even hug you. πŸŽ‰ 

”I just got married and spent $20,000 for one day”, yeah people clap, celebrate and even hug you. πŸ’

β€œI just got a loan for $300,000 to buy my first home”, yeah people clap, celebrate and even hug you. 🏑 

β€œI just got a loan for $40,000 for a new car”, yeah people clap, celebrate and even hug you. πŸš— 

That’s $460,000 in total debt most people are living in……. but they are feeling good about it because they are being celebrated for it. 

Now, go tell those same people you spent a few thousand dollars to properly start your own business…

β€œWhoa, are you sure?” β€œWhat are you going to do if it doesn’t work?” β€œUmm.. I don’t think those things really work” β€œDo you think you can get your money back?”

Picture a bucket full of crabs with no lid… the crabs never escape the bucket. The moment a crab tries to get out of the bucket, the other crabs pull it back down. πŸ¦€ πŸ¦€ πŸ¦€

Pay attention to who you are surrounding yourself with and who is speaking into your life. πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ’•

  1. This is absolutely spot on and sometimes a really hard lesson to learn. As I’ve got older my circle has become much smaller.
