(💸39/40) The Fear-Setting Framework: How to Turn Your Scariest Financial Decisions Into Your Biggest Breakthroughs


Listen Later

What happens when you face a decision that seems completely illogical on paper, but something in your spirit knows it's right?

In 2008, I faced exactly that: I turned down a dream job offering DOUBLE my previous salary... to pursue a blog making only $100/month.

In this episode, we're breaking down the exact framework that turned our scariest financial decisions into our biggest breakthroughs.

 

 You'll discover:

  1. Why God's best often looks like career suicide

  2. Is Your "Safe Choice" Actually an Ishmael? The hidden danger of logical decisions

  3. What Peter teaches us about calculated risk-taking

  4. The Hidden Cost of Playing It Safe (and why doing nothing is still a decision)

  5. Our proven 3-part framework for evaluating major life decisions

 

Resources Mentioned:

  1. Simple Money, Rich Life (Our Book): https://seedtime.com/free

  2. Fear Setting Worksheet: https://seedtime.com/fearsetting

  3. Tim Ferriss's Fear-Setting Exercise (Referenced)
