Look after your Golden Goose. Never Mistake the Egg as the Gift. We
have become a society that values things more than people. It is often
joked, tongue-in-cheek that you are only as good as your last
accomplishment. That is the ultimate lie. We are not a collection of the things
that we do, the sale that we make, or the goal that is conquered. You are
the gift. You are the Golden Goose. The egg is just the last thing you
created.
Wherever you are right now in your life, please stop for a moment and
hear this truth. The true gold lies not in the outcome or
accomplishment, it is in the process of creating. When you give yourself a little
space and care for the Golden Goose inside you, you will once again lay a
golden egg. Don’t worry, there is nowhere to go, you have everything
you need for the blissful life you desire. You just forgot where the
true gold lives — inside of you.
Financial independence is a journey. And like any journey, if a person
wants to travel from where they are to where they want to be, they need
to know where they are starting from, where they want to be going, and
the options of how to get there. And if they've never been there
before, they need a map, even if it's only used as a reference for when
they lose their way or the planned road is temporarily or permanently
closed.
