Worst investment ever

Nada Lena was a successful executive at 28 years old, living the best life. She had everything you imagine to be a success. From a luxury car, house on the lake, boats, and kayaks to all kinds of stuff. Then she decided to spend all her energy and time building a relationship. She resigned from her company, sold everything, pulled out her 401k, and moved out of the country to get married.

After two weeks of being married, Nada Lena’s husband decided that he wanted a divorce. She went from a high functioning executive with six figures, a house, and all this stuff successful people have to two luggage and $100. No car, no house, no job. She had invested a lot of time, energy, and resources to make this shift happen. Unfortunately, it just didn’t work out. Nada Lena had to rebuild herself up again from zero.

Lessons learned

• Life is more about the inner skills that help us become successful, not technical or outer skills and things that we emphasize. These don’t make you who you are.
• It’s essential to believe in yourself and feel confident that you’re enough, even when you have it rough.

Andrew’s takeaways

• If you can get an education and a strong family bond, that’s already a significant step towards success. Focus on that.

Actionable advice

Constantly do a check-in with yourself on all the pillars of life—your self-worth, career, romance, health and fitness, your community, and money. Building a life that you’re proud of is not only about spending all your time, money, energy, and resources in one area but having a very balanced and nurtured environment as a whole human being. So that when one pillar falls, you can still use the other five pillars to pull you back up.

No. 1 goal for the next 12 months

Nada Lena’s number one goal for the next 12 months is to invest in a home once the market dips.
