The Secret to the Success of the 1% Is To Seek More Freedom, Not Just More Security
You have to take risks to get more freedom.
Time is the most precious resource we have on Earth. Time passes no matter what we do. Whether you like it or not, time will do its work. If the passage of time is the same for everyone, the perception we have of it will differ completely between individuals.
If a month lasts 30 days, some people will manage to make much more progress than others during this time.
A year lasts 365 days for all humans. Yet, some people can change their lives completely in a single year, while others feel they are slipping and not moving forward as they would like.
99% of people are just looking for more security
Putting your full energy into one area over a period of time can make a difference for the rest of your life. You can focus on your investments in one year and then change your life forever for the next.
Yet 99% of people don't do this. These people feel that things will never change for them. They don't move forward and stay stuck in their comfort zone.
Behind this major problem, there is a reality that will jump out at you if you study the stories of highly successful people. The famous 1% as we like to call them.
Ordinary people will always look for more security. So when you try to invest in a new and growing field, those closest to you will try to dissuade you by saying that it is too dangerous. This is what your loved ones will probably tell you if you tell them you are investing in Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.
These people are afraid to take risks to aim higher
If you tell your friends that you are moving to the other side of the world to give your life a new meaning, many will tell you that you are totally crazy. Your friends will try to dissuade you by telling you that you already have a good situation where you are.
Why take the risk of ruining it?
Likewise, you may have wondered why many bankers in small local agencies who help clients with their successful real estate investments don't do the same for their own. Again, it's a question of security.
These bankers know what to do to make money, but they may be afraid to put themselves in danger by taking risks to invest.
The 1% know how to take risks to obtain more and more freedom
Where ordinary people want security, the 1% will seek more freedom. This means taking risks to build a better future. At the basis of any great financial success, there is a total change of mindset to be operated.
Rather than seeking security, you must choose to leave your comfort zone in search of more freedom.
To succeed in your business, you will have to overcome various mental barriers that the system has instilled in you since you were young:
Free yourself from the limits that society considers to be established.
Understand that there are many more possible things than impossible things.
Learn to question all family and social beliefs to think independently and break free from society's limitations.
Overcome your fear of risk to learn to control it and take advantage of it.
Learn to put freedom above the reassuring security in which society wants to lock you.
The first step towards success is mental.
The key is to change your mindset to join the 1%
Once you get out of the mindset that blocks 99% of people, you can change your life and maximize your chances of joining the 1%.
This means always looking for opportunities that come your way if you think they can change your life. Don't listen to others who think it's too risky. Great successes always seem impossible until they are achieved.
Elon Musk keeps saying that when he started Tesla, he gave himself no more than a 5-10% chance of success.
And yet, that didn't stop him from investing his entire fortune in it. To succeed, you must follow your instincts alone. This is how you will achieve great success and the freedom to live your life on your own terms. Free from the limitations that others want to impose on you, you will finally be yourself.
Final Thoughts
You will fail along the way, but that is part of the game. Out of your comfort zone, you will reach that famous growth zone where everything becomes possible. Once you reach this zone, you will never regret the security of your comfort zone.
Security that only kept you away from the great successes you can legitimately aspire to in your life.
