Creating Opportunities for a Better Future

Last week I wrote about reflecting on the past and preparing for the future. Have you had a chance to think about it much? I realize that the holiday season is a busy time for many of us, even if it may look a bit different this year without the events and big get-togethers that we are accustomed to.

 

But time continues on despite everything going on in our lives, even seemingly quicker this time of year, and here we are already a few days into the last month of 2020.

It may seem that not much will change when we go from 12/31/2020 to 1/1/2021 but in reality, there is a world of opportunity for change within you.

 

 

The new year is the perfect time to make the commitment to yourself to reach your goals. Think about one thing you would like to accomplish in the next 6 months and make it your priority. Wake up every morning and affirm how important it is to you, and remind yourself that not accomplishing it is not an option. Affirm that you will do everything necessary that day to accomplish your goal.

 

What if one of your goals is to increase your real estate portfolio?

What’s the best move, what type of real estate is best? Where should you invest? With whom should you invest?

All great questions. We have been navigating interesting times, which will surely continue into the new year.

But there are a lot of people putting a great deal of thought into what’s on the horizon.

 

I pay attention to people who are not trying to sell me something, people who do A LOT of research and share it with me to let me make my own decisions. Two people that I listen to are Kathy Fettke of Real Wealth Network and Dave Stech of Purpose Built Investments. Both are sharing research which suggests that there is a better than average chance of single family homes being the ‘place to be’ for the near future.

Take a look at Kathy’s Housing Market Predictions and Dave’s State of the Union for Real Estate and Private Lending on MC Laubscher’s Cash Flow Ninja podcast.

Dave and his sons Josh and Blake, along with an amazing team, put together a group called ACCESS insiders. It’s an invitation only group that I had the honor of being asked to join earlier this year. It’s been an invaluable experience and I have learned so much.

After you explore the articles and video, if being introduced to ACCESS is of interest to you, schedule a call and I will introduce you. Think back to your 6-month goal. Perhaps this opportunity aligns and can help you reach it. Even if you decide the group is not for you, Dave is a great guy to know.

Until next time, be well and enjoy the season.

The Vanish Test: What My Personal Trainer Taught Me About Your Money with Dr. Felecia Froe

Dr. Felecia Froe opens this solo episode with a confession that has nothing to do with money: she has a personal trainer, and she has absolutely no idea what she’s doing at the gym. She just shows up, does what he says, and leaves sweaty. That worked fine until Tony (my trainer) announces he’s going on vacation, and Felecia realizes her entire fitness “plan” lives in his head, not hers. That small panic cracks open a much bigger question: how many women are doing the exact same thing with their money?

ICYMI: Make Your Money Do More: Become Your Own Bank with Erica Neal

Erica Neal didn’t set out to become a wealth strategist. She was on the pre-med track until an unplanned teenage pregnancy knocked her off that path and into a finance and economics degree she almost didn’t choose. In this ICYMI episode, Erica joins Dr. Felecia to trace her journey from watching her mom fall into credit card debt to co-founding Infinity Investment Strategies and writing the bestselling Mind of Gold. She opens up about the “earthquake moment” that made her question everything she’d been taught about traditional financial planning: a client who asked a question she couldn’t answer.

Foundations #12: How Wealth B-Hers Talks about Money Differently

Most of us don’t avoid money conversations because we don’t care; we avoid them because the rooms available to us don’t feel safe. In this final installment of the Foundations series, Dr. Felecia Froe steps away from strategy and numbers to unpack something more fundamental: the culture underneath every Wealth B-Hers conversation. She names the pressure many women feel walking into financial conversations, the pressure to already have the answers, to sound confident, to never ask the “basic” question, and shows how that pressure shuts down learning and breeds shame instead of wealth. In its place, she lays out three foundations that shape the Wealth B-Hers community: no pretending, worth separated from net worth, and no rushing.
