One of the things that I’ve seen clearly during this pandemic is that for many people, the pandemic is happening to them, and for others, they’re happening, they’re launching, they’re living with intentionality during the pandemic or reaping the benefits of their intentionality.
There’s no question that for some people, all they can do is cope and hope to ride this quarantine/lockdown out financially.
For others, this has absolutely lit a fire in them - the financial tide is out, and they’ve been caught skinny dipping. They simply were not prepared for a (gigantic) rainy day.
Make no mistake, we can’t use this pandemic as an opportunity to get unfocused.
Nothing changes with you walking up your Baby Steps during this crisis unless you have reason to believe that your income is in jeopardy. If that’s the case, you need to build your cash reserves until you believe that your income is secure again.
Stay intentional, everyone! There’s so much happening right now and so many voices - alarmists, conspiracy theorists, deniers - it’s all talk. There’s no way to know what’s actually happening. We need to control the controllables.
People don't build wealth by accident; you don't wake up debt-free by coasting along. Keep your head in the game and keep making progress!
