19. Invest in Yourself: Why It Matters and How to Do It
January 25, 2023
The greatest catalyst to personal growth is to invest in yourself. It certainly has been for Monica and me! This week we’re sharing some tips on personal investments, both in yourself and your business.
What does it mean to invest in yourself and why is it important?
Investing in yourself means that you believe you’re capable of more than what you’re currently doing. It means putting your resources (time, money, effort, etc.) into something for a profit or advantage, something that will make your life better.
You are your own most valuable asset, so investing in yourself pays off in all other aspects of your life!
How do you invest in yourself?
There are countless ways to invest in yourself! Here are some examples:
- read books → expand your knowledge on any subject!
- Listen to podcasts
- Make time to rest and take care of yourself (walks, eating healthy, journaling, etc.)
- Work out
- Take a class
- Pursue hobbies
- Take a course/class
- Get a coach or mentor
- Purchase software
- Hire services (accountants or web designers)
- Practice your skills
- Go to networking events
- Go to workshops
How do you know if something is a good investment?
We filter all our investment choices through these questions:
- Will it help me become the person I want to be?
- Will it help me learn a skill faster?
- Will it help my business grow faster?
- Do I resonate with the content this person is putting out?
