Why Aim for Financial Freedom?
Most people on earth have dreamed of gaining financial freedom and financial stability to enjoy and have a worry-free life. Just imagine being able to eat, play, love and cherish all the earthly things without having to worry about you and your family's future, hospitalization and your monthly bills. Now who wouldn't want that life?
Most people wish to become rich and wealthy. Well, it may take them several years or even their entire lifetime to get what they want. But nothing seems impossible if you believe and try.
Almost every one of us works hard to earn our money from our very own efforts. If we have money, we can satisfy ourselves and meet our basic needs such as eating healthy foods, having a warm shelter and wear decent clothing. Basically, we work hard to earn for a living.
We wake up every Monday and start our daily preparation and work routine. We then end our weekday tired but see all our hard work as being well worth the effort.
We try our very best to dress nice, work hard and stay productive for us to please our bosses and get that promotion we're incessantly hoping for. Being promoted means bigger responsibilities but with higher compensation pay and greater benefits that can at least help us become financially stable and a step forward on our road to richness.
Instead of aiming to becoming rich, why don't you just aim to achieve financial freedom instead?
Being rich does not guarantee you to become financially independent. Being rich won't even solve all your money problems.
Financial independence is the state of having sufficient wealth to live without having to work so hard to meet man's basic needs such as food, clothing, water and shelter. It's also the freedom of working for yourself and not under someone else and their capricious demands.
Just imagine yourself working for at least 20 hours per week or less with sufficient income continuously flowing in and having more leisure time with your spouse and kids. Living that kind of life without worrying about your finances is a great manifestation of achieving financial freedom.
Aiming to achieve financial independence without having optimized goals and a course of action can get us caught in a pitfall. Each one of us should be able to learn to become resourceful and able to manage our own wealth.
Given an example, if you want to increase your monthly savings up to 5%, you can do so by sacrificing some of your luxury such as dining out on a fancy restaurant every Friday night or even to have the courage to stop smoking! These little sacrifices can help you save and eventually find your way to achieve financial freedom.
If you think that aiming for financial freedom is the best direction instead of aiming to be rich, you don't need to work hard or extend your working hours to attain overtime pay. Being able to successfully manage your wealth and prioritize more of your basic necessities is a step towards financial independence.
