Making Moves

Successful Entrepreneurs Always Make Moves

Entrepreneurs are not born and created on their own. Most are made and created by making moves in their lives. Only they and you can decide to live a life in a different way and to take some some small chances and calculated risks to start off with.

Making a move isn`t a bad thing. Its actually healthy in most cases and gives you energy and life to look forward too. Each week I make a cluster of very small moves to make my future better and better. My wife and I are constantly making moves to improve ones life for the better. Making a move doesn`t have to be risk it all situation or put the family farm on the line. A small move can go along way and inches you forward to more and more successes.

A calculated thought out move of what to do next and how you will succeed from this move is a great way to think week to week. Try and shift your thinking to make some moves and see the outcomes arising in your mind. This mindset will become contagious of what you want to do, and how you want to feel and go in your life. Don`t necessarily follow the narrative's all the time. Be a leader and a move maker and a strategy thinker. This is very common in successful entrepreneurs.

I have read many books on successful entrepreneurs and one core value they have in common is thinking outside the box and constantly making a move and planning their next chapter. So why don't you start thinking like this more often and watch what happens?

Try not to go through the week without making a small move to improve and see progress & successes arising. This doesn't have to be related to money all the time. As when you chase the money around it tends to not follow you back this way. Don't say its been a hard week and didn't have time. Yes you do as you can make a move of a single thought a priority.

What's Trending? Businesses With Cash Flow & Hard Assets/Safe Haven's With the recent turmoil in stocks correcting and swinging around like a yo yo in a kids playground. Individuals & smart money investors are seeking out hard assets/ small businesses & franchises with cash flow. I receive hundreds a calls a month from buyers looking for cash flow and focused on hard assets. This sounds like a solid simple plan of attack and is working for a select group of smart money investors. Safe haven demand is at the highest level in a very long time. No one knows what will happen tomorrow or next month with the market or economy so why not take control your own future this way. If you are looking to diversify away from financial instruments and be in the drivers seat of your hard earned work. Why not start a side hustle? Or partner up to buy a franchise business in a great location? Or add onto your existing business portfolio and purchase another business. This I am seeing a demand in calls & especially over the past 6 months. I am a big fan of physical bullion gold and silver and have invested a great deal in this space over the past 5 years and returns are there. Here is a chart of Gold 5 year and one year as of MSN money app in USD funds. Gold Per Ounce 3405 USD ‎+81.80 (‎+2.46%) Today USD PAST YEAR • AS OF MAY 6, 10:05 A.M. EDT ‎+1,073.20 (‎+46.04%) USD PAST 5 YEARS • AS OF MAY 6, 10:06 A.M. EDT ‎+1,659.10 (‎+94.98%) USD While the S +P index YTD to date is seeing a loss YTD YTD • AS OF MAY 6, 10:06 A.M. EDT ‎-282.47 (‎-4.80%) 33.40 Silver Per Ounce ‎+0.90 (‎+2.76%) Today USD PAST YEAR • AS OF MAY 6, 10:01 A.M. EDT ‎+5.99 (‎+21.89%) USD YTD • AS OF MAY 6, 10:02 A.M. EDT ‎+4.12 (‎+14.08%) This type of hard physical asset is yours only and holds no counter party risk. It is recommended to have safe storage in higher amounts & can always be sold and turned into a fiat currency anytime you wish. It's a flight for safety and a safe haven, and is working as world fiat dollars de-value with inflation chewing away slowly at it. One suggestion is to not do what everyone else does. In fact you may want to look at the opposite first. Then do your own due diligence. While I do not give out financial advice you are welcome to speak with your advisor who most likely will not talk about gold or silver or investing into a small business and will push there financials instruments so they can obtain a fee from there bank. So it is important to talk to many others in different fields. Try not to trust one source to park your cash or plan your retirement. It's just too risky to let it all ride on whim of a financial instrument and hope it keeps going up. As there is nothing better than controlling your own destiny in life. Master your own destiny is the way to go and work for it and build it they will come.
