In this episode I discuss the importance of leveraging money and using that to increase your wealth. So, what exactly do I mean by this, leveraging your money is the ability to create more money than what you physically have to work with.

Usually being able to leverage money applies best in the real estate and forex markets. For example, you put a 20% downpayment on a home and in return receive 5 times more in the value of your assets. If you were trading forex, you could leverage your positions sizes up to 50 times what is in your account.

By leveraging money you can obtain higher returns on any sort of investment, although there is a higher risk. But this is the key to expanding your wealth and your empire from a younger age.

The truth is investing in the stock market will never work. Why? Because 98% of people only make money when the market is going up and they can only invest what is at face value.

In this episode I get vulnerable and share my own biggest weaknesses. If you can't tell by the title I have a very difficult time, accepting my failures, letting go, and being patient with the next step.

I share how I truly haven't gotten over my losses in the crypto markets over the past year, how I refuse to give up on an idea, and how my perspective limited me from being able to forgive.

Listen, even though this podcast is about trying to create what you want to have the social and financial freedom you want, I have to document my own journey. My own shortcomings are important to share and something I want others to realize is okay. I'm human and want to share my genuine perspective.

Acceptance - Not being in denial, learning that you made a mistake, failed, and and recognize it's not the end of the world.

Patience- Being able to enjoy your experience even though it isn't happening as quick as you might like

Letting Go- After acceptance, forgiving yourself for your mistakes, failures, and no longer dwelling on them, but rather moving on.

In this episode we talk about dealing with the feelings of being uncomfortable and the fear of the unknown.

Being uncomfortable is something that not a single human on the planet enjoys feeling. It is a natural reaction to uncertainty. Especially when the future of your well being, career, finances, or lifestyle are at stake.

I recently found out that I will be out of a job for somewhere between two to three months. I'm left with a dilemma of pursuing my dreams and risk going broke, find a new job, or wait it out.

It is not a fun experience. Truthfully, I strongly dislike feeling uncomfortable, but it is the pressure that creates the diamond.

When you go through periods of life that are filled with discomfort and uncertainty that is where change occurs, usually for the better. So myself included, learn to go with the flow, because the path you are on is what is supposed to happen.

It's that time of the year ago. New Year, New Decade, New Me, as heard from the same people who fail to take action in their lives. The whole idea of a New Years Resolution is to make the people who regret their past year, feel excited about a fresh start, to do it all over again.

The truth is the only way to improve your life is to take massive action. It's working when you don't feel like it, it's staying up late, it's making sacrifices to ensure that you get done what you need to.

There is no shortcut to success, only massive and consistent action. Don't let anyone else tell you otherwise. In order to get what you want in 2020, take action.

In this episode I talk with Aaron Patton, Host of New Age Influencers Podcast, about leaving a 9-5 job in order to pursue a business or other venture.

The facts are that over 85% of people hate their job. That is a staggering amount of people who go to work for somebody else, are miserable, and make others wealthy in the process.

For some people, working a 9-5 is what they want and if that's you, great! But for the majority of people they would much rather find a way to monetize their interests, or pursue some other business related venture.

Aaron Patton was working in a software sales job a couple of years ago making a comfortable 6-figure income, but guess what, he wasn't happy.

He decided to take a leap of faith and upright quit his job. He bought a condo in downtown San Diego, rented it out on AirBNB and began to travel the world.

Since then he has started a rapidly growing podcast that features the perspectives of top entrepreneurs who are dominating content on social media.

In this episode we discuss how you can generate more income when you don't have much to work with with.

Having too little income is the most common shortcoming of young adults and aspiring entrepreneurs. The best way to generate more income especially when you don't have more is to just create content on platforms that have an advertising or monetized program.

When you create content you can use your following to generate ad revenue. From there once you generate a large enough following you can then leverage your brand into a true business.

In this episode we discuss why being being obsessed is the only way to monetize your passion.

Unless you want to live an average life you need to work 10x than anyone else. You need to obsessed. Put in hours of work outside of your own responsibilities just for a chance to change your life for the better. Why do you think most people never do that? Because they aren't obsessed with their work.

There is a 0.0% of you succeeding if aren't just infatuated with your passions. because you'll never work hard when you don't want to and you'll never push through the countless mistakes and failures to get there.

If you really want to monetize your passions and I mean finding a way to turn your hobby into dollar signs, it's only through hard work and obsession.

I share my own personal experience and hardships to paint a picture of what put me on this path.

In this episode we discuss the the biggest mistake the average 20 year old makes by allowing their social pressures to transfer to the bank account.

Most 20 year olds are exploring their newly found freedom in the adult world. But the reality is, most 20 year olds are dictated by fear. Fear of not fitting in, being judged, it can be anything pertaining to social pressure, and often it hurts their bank account.

Spending earned money to fit into those pressures. $800 handbag here, $400 wallet there, when that money could be put into investing into assets.

In this episode I discuss why I choose to not invest in stocks or cryptocurrency and my experience behind investing in those. The biggest takeaway of this episode is to invest in your beliefs and the lifestyle you want. Invest in your intuition and the experiences that it presents to you.

I tell the story of my massive cryptocurrency returns and massive fall back to the surface. I explain the euphoria that came with the returns and the heartbreak that came with the losses.

From cryptocurrency I tried the "safer" stocks and commodities trading. However, at the point I lost the love I had for trading and knew I had to go in a different direction.

As a young adult the best thing you can do is taste everything. Find out what you like and don't like. Learn to improve your strengths and accept your weaknesses. Learn as much as you can and find as many things as possible that you love.

In this episode we discuss why nobody should "hustle" for 16 hours a day.

Gary Vaynerchuk, a large social media influence and entrepreneurs, has recently proposed this idea that people should be working 16 hours a day on whatever their purpose is, or flipping items online. And OF COURSeEthat is a viable method, no disrespect, but in a day and age where young entrepreneurs are exposed to a network of people and services we should be teaching them to utilize it.

So many young entrepreneurs feel the need learn how to everything by themselves. Learn how to create content, marketing, building a business. And when you have little experience and minimal capital it should be encouraged to actually outsource and pay other people to do it.

Why waste 50-100 hours designing a website on your own when you can pay an expert of Fiverr to do it for you for $200? Is your time really own worth $2-4 an hour?

Work hard, but utilize your time an efficient manner. Play to your strengths and pay others for your weaknesses.
