What I’m keeping from November 2024 No matter where you are in life, there will always be people who are richer than you and those who don’t have nearly as much; those who are smarter, more talented and those who are less so than you are; there will always be people who are in better shape than you and others who wish they were able to live life as you are able to. Some people have the job that you want and others who wish that they had yours. There will always be people who seem to get all the breaks and those who never do. November is the month for thanksgiving. Being grateful for your life and for the many blessings you have been given is the point. But why limit this to one day late in the fall? Keeping gratitude as a perpetual state of mind is what I’m keeping from November 2024. How about you? _____ Adding clarity to your life with money. Retirement • Cash Flow • Net Worth • Estate • Education • Asset management • Risk management • Multigenerational • Collaboration • What's next? Be ready!

My Plan to Retire by the Age of 35… trust me, I have a very long way to go 👇 To me, life is not about money. But money is a tool to unlock what you really want in life. To me, I’ve chosen the opposite of this photo below. A lot of people choose to take the route that involves school get a job work your way up the ladder and be comfortable And if that’s you, that’s absolutely fine, there’s nothing wrong with that… But to me, there’s one glaring issue with this, I refuse to live on this beautiful earth that God has created for us and work until I’m 65. So me, I’m doing the opposite, I’m enduring the struggle and pain now that comes with building businesses. Understanding life, learning who we are and learning from our mistakes. I’m currently 29, 2024 was one of the hardest years of my life, but this is only the beginning. The success story has ever started at the top, they always start at the bottom and worked their way up. For me, I’m dedicated, and I will build a life for myself, my wife, and my family that we can live the life that we want And more importantly that God wants with no limitations. So for me, when I struggle, but things get rough, I put my faith in the man above, and I let him do what he needs to. My goal? By the year 2030 I will be 100% “retired” living off of the passive income that I have built for my businesses. The goal with all of my social channels, and pages is to share this journey with you and also grow with you and build a community around like-minded people. At the end of the day, we all have our own goals, and we all have our own dreams… I don’t care what those dreams are, but I would love to be part of the community helping you build them.

Pre-Thanksgiving Reflection 🦃 I'm grateful for today, but I'm always planning for tomorrow. As we reflect on what we’re thankful for this year, consider looking forward as well. What will you be thankful for in the years to come? What steps do you need to take today to ensure those moments of gratitude? Some future-focused questions to ponder: 1. Where do you want to be in 5, 10, 20 years? Picture yourself living the life you’ve dreamed of. What financial goals, career milestones, or personal achievements will make you feel proud? 2. How are you preparing to support the people you care about? Planning ahead—whether for a child’s education, retirement security, or family experiences—helps ensure you can provide for those who matter most. 3. What kind of legacy do you hope to leave? Building a legacy isn’t just about wealth; it’s about values, impact, and creating opportunities for future generations. Small, intentional actions today create the foundation for long-term fulfillment. This Thanksgiving, let’s be thankful not only for what we have now but for the opportunities that lie ahead. With thoughtful planning, you can turn those dreams into milestones and those milestones into cherished memories. Happy Thanksgiving! 🍂

Retirement [ ⛳ 🎣 🧓 ] is a really bad idea. I don't recommend it. I get it. Your entire life society has glorified the concept of "retirement" and one day taking it easy. But think about that word RETIREMENT for a moment. What else do we retire? - Race horses 🏇 - Battleships ⚓ - Factory equipment 🏭 We retire things when they are used up. We put them out to pasture when they are no longer useful. How appealing does that sound when applied to your life? Are you done being useful? I highly doubt it. You don't have to die at your desk, but you can build a life you never want to retire from. I explain how in my book: Legends Don't Retire. https://lnkd.in/gyPMvqBT #antiretirement #legacyplanning #purposedriven

There has been a significant change in the ability, demeanour & attitude of people in their 60, 70 & in Mick's case 80's :). In many ways, there are no substitutes for the combination of meaningful experience & focused enthusiasm/energy. Todays' leaders need to take note of this systemic and unavoidable market demographic change and re-profile their organisations to look for 'value-add opportunities' to introduce experienced & energetic ex-colleagues/professionals. Just think back to the people that; helped you with your career; helped you solve your business challenges, helped you grow/flourish, trusted you to get 'the break' that accelerated your opportunity....and helped you become the success that you are today. This new opportunity can manifest itself in several ways and guises including key strategic interim or transitional roles that can help you execute faster and more accurately. The world is in transition, the world is changing, thinking outside the box and being a first mover is what winners do...time for a re-think?

🌟Reimagining Retirement: A New Era of Career Reinvention 🌟 We need a new word as the traditional concept of retirement, where one worked at a single company for a lifetime and retired with a pension and a gold watch, is a thing of the past. Today, people are living longer, healthier lives and are reinventing their careers in mid and late stages. Men and women are taking this opportunity to reboot their careers and pursue their passions. 🔄 If your mind and body are active and your work brings you joy, there’s no reason to stop. Many are choosing self-employment, consulting or starting businesses, embracing entrepreneurship, and finding fulfillment in new ventures. As a Career Coach, I specialize in helping late-career professionals and executives REIMAGINE and TRANSFORM careers. Together, we explore new opportunities and create strategies for sustained success and happiness. Let’s redefine what "Retirement" means, that is, Reinvention and Rediscovery.
