Stock Market Strategy can help you reach your goal of financial freedom.

Financial Freedom

Before pursuing financial freedom it is important to define what it means to you. Financial freedom comes in many shapes and forms but can mainly be divided into two main categories. Time and objects. If you think of time and objects in this equation then it can be clearer: time is effort and objects is whatever you want it to be whether it is cars or property!

Time and money has and will always have a close relationship and the old saying “time is money” comes to mind. Time can be sold for money, e.g. a job, but it can also be bought for money, e.g. hire a cleaning service for the house. So for some people, financial freedom means the ability to quit your job and spend more time on your family or hobby. Some people might do charity work while others want to seek entertainment through social events. For others financial freedom means pursuing the lesser paid but more personal rewarding job.

A more tangible definition of financial freedom is substantial wealth. Substantial wealth gives you a life without debt and a life without the worries of mortgage or car payments. Another view is the financial freedom to live a less modest life, subsequently not having to just dream about that sports car but actually making it a reality. Or what about the opportunity to buy the latest high tech gadgets, buying that beach house or perhaps go travelling around the world.

The bottom line is that financial freedom is about control. The ability to control what you will do with your life and when.

Our definition of Financial Freedom

Here at Stock Market Strategy we have defined our personal financial freedom to be both of the above type’s i.e. time and objects. We believe that trading can give us both so why settle for less? It is important to understand that it will not come overnight and more importantly, that it will not come at the same time. Trading is not a “get rich quick” scheme. It takes time to master it and then yet again you will never master it completely. However, although trading is not a “get rich quick” scheme, it can used to create a substantial wealth over a period of time. So how does trading fulfill our definition of financial freedom?

For us here at Stock Market Strategy we had a dream about making a living doing what we love wherever in the world which was trading the stock market. We wanted to quit our job so we could pursue that dream. When that dream did come true we got the financial freedom we were aiming for.

By using good money management and by accumulating our profit every year we can reach our second goal which is the financial freedom to buy the token sports car or house which frequently appear in every man’s dreams and shows the world that you have made it.

Accumulating the profit and thereby creating wealth is what trading is all about. Trading is not a lottery. You don’t wake up rich. Trading is about consistently making money just like Warren Buffet did in the investment world.

Again this is our definition of financial freedom. It is all about priorities and what you want.  Many traders keep their daytime job so they can create wealth faster than the traders who quit their job. This is where Stock Market Strategy can really help you. You have time to focus on your job while accumulating wealth through trading. Financial freedom is no longer a dream, it is a reality.

6 Steps to Financial  Freedom

Acceptance – The first step is to accept that financial freedom is possible and is possible for someone like you. Without that belief you are effectively swimming upstream. Billionaires are ordinary people like you and if they can do it, then so can you. As soon as you have accepted that you can achieve financial freedom you can move on to step two.

Education – Since the beginning of time education has been a key element in progress. Classical education as we know it goes back to the Greeks and Romans. The Greeks were more theoretical where the Romans were more practical. Today this combination is vital and imperative to move ahead in the world. Get a good foundation with theory through books and then later on gather as much practical experience in real life as possible.

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.

Meaning: Although helping people is admirable, teaching them skills so that they can look after themselves is much more practical and commendable.

Expert – Chose any subject and study that for a couple of hours a day and you will become an expert, whether it is Chinese or trading. Sit back for a second and have think about this. You can become an expert. Someone who is widely recognized by his/her peers. Being the best of the best and the top of the industry. Although this view maybe hard to accept due to fears of an egotistical attitude or about being arrogant, but it is about taking pride in being great at whatever you are doing and being able to offer your help. Successful people are often expert in one area, let it be Donald Trump in investement or Bill Gates in software development.

Focus – Stay focused on your goals. Don’t let insignificant things distract you from your work. Acquire a target and stay on track at all times. Try not to use your precious time on useless TV programs or procrastinating. Try to focus on some sport activities to recharge body and mind and build some mental stamina through various exercises. Many people never succeed in financial freedom because they are distracted during college/university.

On this world there exists no such impossible tasks, they fear only those with perseverance.

Meaning: No task in this world is impossible so long as there are willing, persistent hearts.

Circle of friends and family – Try to create a circle of friends and family who are also trying to achieve financial freedom. You can inspire each other and help each other to stay focused. It is also important you are not surrounded by people who constantly try to convince you that financial freedom is a pipe dream. What if Lance Armstrong’s family and friends had kept telling him he couldn’t win Tour de France (a tournament he won 7 years in a row) after his cancer treatment?

Mentor & Guidance – Consult with a few mentors. This can help you in the right direction as well as help you stay in the right direction. If you find yourself in a tough spot seek guidance about how to take the next steps forward.

The old horse in the stable still yearns to run.

Meaning: Experienced, older people still have a lot to offer and often have ambitions and desires that they wish to accomplish.
