Is Freedom the Ultimate Thing?

If you could have anything, what thing would that be?

Is it even a thing?

Personally my ultimate thing is, Freedom.

One Word Means Everything

Freedom.

Its just one word. Such a simple word. Hardly a word at all.

But it means everything.

That’s my thing. The one thing that I want. The one thing I am working towards.

I strive and work towards freedom.

Isn’t that ultimately what everybody wants?

To be free? To have choice?

What is Freedom?

Freedom. The ability to make the decisions that have a direct impact on your own life.

To live where I want.

To eat what I want.

To love whomever, I want to.

To marry, or not.

To have children, or not.

To continue my education, or not.

To work where I want. Or not to work.

The choice to follow my own path, or even just to do the same as everyone else.

Many Different Things

That’s the thing with freedom. It can mean so many different things.

Its not tangible. You can’t touch it.

But you know when you have it.

Taken in the context of personal finance and self-development, it’s the weight lifted off your shoulders when you are debt free.

The relief when you end a bad relationship.

The calm when you have an emergency fund, and the joy that comes when you are on the way to financial independence.

When you have freedom you don’t realise its true value.

Take Action

You deserve to have freedom. Take a step today towards you very own financial freedom.

Your future self will thank you.
