The thoughts and behaviors remain the same for mindset and productivity, but consistent action distinguishes how you Grow Your Personal Economy. This episode focuses squarely on aligning our mental models with our consistent actions to grow our personal economy with those we serve: clients, customers, family members, our inner circle, and our communities. I hope you enjoy this episode as I share some of the resources I've been using in the last few months. ****************** CFV Links: Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://cashflowveteran.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -- Join My Daily Email List Facebook:  ..read more

While I stated in my last episode the topic for March would be the financial situation we find ourselves in, I changed topics because I already hit part of that topic in the month of January. I will go back to that topic in a future month, but I really wanted to talk about Shifting The Paradigm. That is what I'm doing in the entrepreneurship space for military members, veterans, and families. This episode focuses squarely on aligning our mental models with our purpose, our passion, and our ideal lifestyle and how we orient our thinking and emotions on the path to success, however its defined ..read more

I'm smack-dab in the middle of choosing a niche to drive my vehicle of success, so it's apt to finish out February's topic of "choice" on this episode. I stress the reason to understand the purpose and motivation behind narrowing down what niche to grow an online marketing business. It helps to research profitable niches, strategies, market data, but we/I can succumb to analysis paralysis. These are important, but don't let a lack of knowledge stop you from starting down the path. I also encourage anyone getting started and growing within a niche to monetize right away. This will close out ..read more

I remember listening to a preacher, Andy Stanley, with a lot of great books on leadership, entrepreneurship, relationships, prayer, and business…all within a Christian context. The excerpt that has always stuck with me if “Do we want to make the RIGHT choice or the WISE choice in any given situation”. Certainly, there are wrong choices in our daily lives. There are right choices…there are also WISE choices. I’ve been going through an entrepreneurial journey lately with a new (new to me) online business program. For me, it’s been transformational and has helped me understand why other ven ..read more

Grant me the wisdom to know the difference of what I can change and what I can't. Sometimes we have to make big, life-altering choices and it can be daunting to know which path to take. Just ask kids graduating high school or college, heck even deciding to go to college or not. Try a husband and wife going through a divorce, or leaving a career in the military. Sometimes we have pivotal moments, other times we are simply choosing better habits or falling into negative habits in the avoidance of something we fear. In both cases, we make decisions in the here and now, and we need a framework on ..read more

Our country and society are in dire straights, and there's a lot of information and conversation about soft landings, no landings, hard landings, and the like. I discuss today a little about what a fractional reserve banking system is, how money in our country is created, and what the US Government budget would be like if you viewed it as a household budget. What do you do about it? I discuss that topic today on the episode. ****************** CFV Links: Website: ⁠https://cashflowveteran.com/⁠ -- Join My Daily Email List Facebook: ⁠@CashFlowVeteran⁠ Twitter: ⁠@CashFlowVeteran⁠ Youtube: ⁠Cas ..read more

We know that narcotics can be addictive and harmful. We know overeating certain foods over years can be just as harmful. But what about our mental health and procrastination and shiny-object syndrome? What bad habits cause this. I would argue it is HOPIUM. Not the good kind of Hope. But that addictive tendency to think the next Instagram Reel, TikTok, or Youtube video is going to give us the answer of what we need to have in order to be successful. In this episode, I talk about how we can sober up and innoculate ourselves from the grasp of HOPIUM. We need to get out of the addictive and de ..read more

What does it mean to be an entrepreneur? Is an entrepreneur born or made? We often want to HAVE things and DO things but we fail to appreciate the process and the necessary focal point: To Be! I've come across the concept of BE-DO-HAVE again, and while I've heard it before, it now strikes deep into what I've been thinking about as I've planned what's in store for CFV in 2024. I've been constantly guilty of focusing on the Having and the Doing without embracing the constant state of Being or Becoming. That's what this episode is about: the acceptance of Becoming. Embracing the Suck of being ..read more

As I've started the new year, instead of trying to rush my goal setting for the 2024 through the holiday season and before going back to work, I decided to work through a process to develop on my mission, vision, and goals a little bit every day with a deadline of 31 January. Like a Stephen Covey says in his book, often we must sharpen our skills, like an axe, before we use them. If we spend more time on sharpening the axe, it makes the job of chopping down a tree much easier. Like Einstein spoke about in asking the right questions, instead of trying to find the right answer. This is what I ..read more

In this episode, I address the changes to how I view the Cash Flow Veteran System and why it's built to help myself and you secede from the system and ensure that our financial freedom is just as important as our political freedom.
