Create a Legacy, Not a Spreadsheet

 Creating a wealth mindset is a tool. Your mindset is a tool that you use to make better decisions and create long-lasting wealth. Why do you want wealth? There are many reasons that people want more resources:

  • Status
  • Options
  • High-quality
  • Freedom
  • And more

 If I were to poll 100 people, I might get 10 categories of answers as to why they want to be wealthy. One of those answers might be to have more options or to quit working for someone else - both super good reasons. One reason is very powerful though… to create a legacy.

 Wealth isn’t just about spreadsheets and net worth. Wealth is a mindset and a way of living. Wealth is all about being generous and thinking outside of the immediate and personal need to the needs and benefit to generations. There is little more satisfying than knowing your actions will impact your kids, their kids, and possibly their kids. That’s a lot of kids to share your legacy.

 Creating a legacy with your wealth includes tangible and intangible assets. Things like:

  • Money
  • Resources
  • Your philosophies
  • Your relationships
  • Your mentorship
  • Your morals and values

 The more you invest in your wealth mindset, the more value you bring to the table. Your influences and teachings hold as much value as your income and your status. The better you are at living life and being an excellent role model the more future generations will look to you for expertise and guidance. YOU are a role model for others, so you want to demonstrate your lifestyle by living an Intentional Life.

 As you build your wealth, put as much emphasis on creating a legacy as you do on creating a spreadsheet. Put as much effort into being the very best version of yourself as you do into managing your money. Generations will thank you for it. 

What are you doing right now that will impact your legacy? How are you setting an example for others?
