I would say that the biggest lesson I learned from my finance life is that you must invest in yourself in order to invest in others. You cannot take good care of others unless you take care of yourself first. Without a solid foundation, you will crumble and fall. When I started investing in myself, it has actually helped me in my finance life. I was able to get ahead of the game, make more money, yes I love properties and even have time to help others in need.
I was told that I would have to make a lot of sacrifices to live a finance life. I was told that I would have to give up many things that I enjoyed. I was told that I would have to put in a lot of hard work and time. I was told that I would have to work harder than others. I was told that I would have to work more hours than others. All of these are told to me by myself.
My job was to be a finance professional, which means that I was going to be the best at what I did. I was told that the world would have to know that I was the best. I was told that I would never have time to do anything else. I was told that I would have to sacrifice my social life, my health, and my happiness. But I put in the hard work and time and I made sacrifices, and I worked harder than anyone else, hahaha 😂 could that be true??. I worked harder than anyone else, and I was the best. And I never had time to do anything else. I was told that I would never have time to do anything else. Nobody to tell you all these but I will continue to tell myself.

How investing in myself has helped me in my finance life
I have learned a lot about investing in myself and my life. When I first started working for myself, I was scared of everything. I had no idea what to expect and I was scared of getting into debt. So I made a list of the things I wanted to save up for and I started saving a little bit of money each month.
This money has gone towards investing in myself. I have been able to buy my first Android phone using presently for blogging, football boots cause I love sport even more than you reading, and many other things I bought for myself.
I am currently saving up for a down payment for a new phone. The little money I have saved up has gone a long way and I am glad I have been able to do it.
I never seize the opportunity of helping others
I've learned that it is important to be aware of the risks and consequences of your actions. I've learned that it is important to be financially responsible and watch what you spend. I've learned that it is important to be a good friend and help others in need.
I really learned a lot about financial stability when I was younger start from where to live a balanced life with my family, which meant that I had to learn to manage my money. I used to work a regular job and then go to school. This was a lot of work because I had to balance the two. I had to learn to budget my time and money. I was also lucky enough to learn a lot about money from my parents. I learned to save and invest. I learned to be disciplined and be able to stick to my budget. I also learned to be frugal. I learned to be a saver and to spend my money wisely. I learned that you have to have a good credit score to have a good life and that you should have insurance. I learned that you need to be able to manage your money.
I learned all these because it's a disciplined that will bridge me and financial independent.
