The Power to Choose

Making one powerful financial decision—in my case, to consult a financial advisor—changed my life in a number of positive ways. I learned more about the world of finance, got control of my purse strings, and grew my self-worth all at the same time.

What about you?

Isn’t it time to take action toward the future that you’ve envisioned for yourself?

One decision can create a big shift in your life and propel you forward. Even just one small forward step can cause a positive ripple effect in your life and will impacts you in ways you can’t predict, or may not even fully recognize.

Movement mobilizes possibility.

Believe me, before I made the powerful financial decision to hire a financial advisor all kinds of “what ifs” came up for me. “What if she asks me to do something scary? What if I feel humiliated for the way I’ve handled my money? What if she convinces me invest my money, and I lose it all, ending up with nothing?”

As you can see, my self-worth issues were bubbling up, too, as I thought, “Who am I to have a financial advisor?” I still held the belief, “Only people with tons of money and investments use financial advisors.” During our first conversation on Skype, she asked me to share my money story. When I got to the part about my marriage and my divorce, I broke down. In fact, I spent the entire remainder of the session bawling my eyes out! I still felt such shame about how much I had given my financial power away to my ex-husband and to my lawyer. I even felt ashamed for not knowing what I didn’t know. But there’s no reason I should have known about finance unless I had studied it. What an unfair perfectionist expectation I put on myself!

I’m so glad I went through all that because hiring her was huge for me. Making that one powerful financial decision – to consult an advisor – changed my life in a number of positive ways beyond what I could have imagined!  By tackling the self-worth issues that were ultimately holding me back from partaking in my full prosperity, I learned more about the world of finance, got control of my purse strings, completely changed the way I handled my money…and I even paid off my mortgage!

Taking action will dissipate your anxiety, give you more confidence, and change the course of your life for the better in a myriad of ways.

Get ready to take action!

What one powerful financial decision will you make?
