One Million Dollars Only

I had started this blog and my Law Of Abundance Check page to share my thoughts and the knowledge that I have learnt about making money. Making a million dollars for me is about earning my financial freedom, as it is for most of us. I dread waking up early every morning and dragging myself to work but it puts food on the table and I have always consoled myself that my day job pays me well to retire in 11 more years. So hold tight and endure for another decade

Everyone of us has choices and I can either make the choice to leave my current job (very narrow industry and I won’t be able to get the same pay elsewhere) and risk not achieving my retirement goal of $1.5 million dollars OR I could hold on tight and continue my savings and investment plan, which my current job offers, and hit financial freedom at 45 years old. Tough choice for me. If I was still a swinging bachelor, I would not have thought twice. Not that I am complaining, I love my son and would sacrifice the world for him.

What would I do to make a million dollars? Would I risk my family lifestyle? Would I risk my financial freedom at 45? Those are tough questions for me but it is clear that there are things that I would not do to make a million dollars. I would not

- sacrifice my family’s wellbeing

- sacrifice my time with my son

- rob or hurt another human being

- lie or cheat or take part in any scams

But what are the things I would do to make this one million dollars? I ponder about what I would be willingly to sacrifice and I would

- sacrifice my after-office time

- have less sleep in order to work on any million dollars making venture

- have less social activities to work on my million dollars business

- invest up to $5000 for a business venture

Would doing all the above hasten my journey to my retirement goal of $1.5 million dollars? I would hope so. There are many ventures that I have already tried and while some have succeeded, there were many that had failed. I have taken a timeout recently to think about setting my goals but my thinking has not really crystallized yet. To help me on my journey, I am going to adopt the simpleology method to get myself faster to my million dollars goal. Perhaps I should document my simpleology journey here as well.
