The future. How many of you forget to think about the future, or think you can always catch up? What people don’t realize is that the future is what holds the capacity to fill dreams and aspirations. However, these dreams and aspirations will never have the chance to come true unless they are planned and thought about on a regular basis, especially in our finances. Your future doesn’t start tomorrow, it starts today.
Far too often, individuals disregard the power of setting goals and miss the abundant security and opportunities planning for your financial future will bring. This isn’t just about tracking and writing everything down. It is more about planning and predicting what will happen in an individuals’ life so they can take hold of their tomorrow and use investing, time and money to catapult your future. Investing in the future is one of the few ways to ensure you the future you want to live when you want to live it.
The Basics of Future Investing
Before I start, it is imperative to know where your money goes monthly to fully utilize the power of future investing. If you are past this step and ready to make sure you are protecting your future, the easiest place to go next is start investing in the future.
This is where money goes into funds or accounts that will secure your future. These investments come in a variety of forms. This type of investing includes emergency funds, 401k, Roth IRAs, money market accounts and even high yield investment accounts. These are only of few of the ways to invest and each investment opportunity will depend on the individuals end goal.
Benefits of Investing Into Your Future
If a percentage of the funds you earn each month are not directly portioned out to cover your future, it is time to rethink your spending. There are far too many benefits, and there is no better time to start than today. Other benefits include:
- Stability
- Security
- Ability to Snatch Opportunities
- Wealth Building
- Personal Growth
- Enhanced Wellbeing and Health
- Lower Stress Levels
The list of benefits is endless. On the other side, investing can be tough because some of the rewards do not come until far later in life. I believe this is one of the biggest reasons people do not invest in their futures and it is a huge mistake. It can even be the easiest way out. One that you can never get back and one you will regret.
Start Today, Create Goals, Track & Repeat
Time is an asset in financial planning. The earlier you start, you more sizable advantage you will have over those who don’t. This will also require you to look in the mirror, get honest with yourself and create some goals. Those dollars you invest today, can turn into 10s, 20s and even hundreds years down the road.
Investing to your future and setting goals should not be looked at as a chore. This is not work. This is not someone telling you what to do. It is merely a missed opportunity if you don’t. Read that again. It is a missed opportunity.
No matter where you are today. Do not miss another opportunity to shape your tomorrow. Do not miss another opportunity to live the life you always dreamed of. Financial planning cannot be underestimated and should not be looked at tomorrow or “Someday”. Get discipline in your finances, educate yourself, and have the long game in mind. The time will come and when it does, I can only hope you can look back and thank your younger self for starting today.
