We all have those truly memorable days that serve as catalysts for reevaluating our lives. For me, it was standing in the twin towers on 9/11 when the first plane struck. Surviving that ordeal gave me a new lease on life and also forced me to take a long hard look at my career choices.
Soon after 9/11 I remember sitting across from my company’s compensation expert as he showed me a graph of what my net worth would be in 30 years. I was basically being handed a ticket to financial freedom but I’d have to wait 30 years to cash it. At this moment, I decided to take the “Bold Road” to own my future.
I came to the realization that we each get just 168 hours of life a week. Like most folks, I was working fifty of those hours and sleeping another fifty. That meant 60% of my time was spoken for before the week even began. Precious little time was left to pursue my goals and truly own my future. The new me works just three or four days per week and earns more than double my old salary. That’s what I mean by taking charge of your life before it runs you instead.
