How to Get the Freedom You Want

If you are waiting to do what you desire to do, stop waiting.

Most people want to earn enough money so they can do what they want to do. So they try to make or save enough money for that to happen. Unfortunately, this usually ends up expending a lot of effort to get some of the freedom a person desires. Most always, this takes longer than it should.

There are four types of freedom most people are chasing.

  • Creative Freedom
  • Time Freedom
  • Financial Freedom
  • Location Freedom

When you’re younger, you typically have time and creative freedom. The idea is to use those two to create the other 2, financial and location freedom. Once you have the financial freedom, you can purchase time and location freedom.

But if you’re like a lot of people and me, to be honest, you probably wasted your youth or had it wasted for you, so you did not leverage your time and creative freedom. We do not ever lose our creative freedom. You can always make what you want, when you want and how you want.

Even if all you have is creative freedom, you can still leverage it.

If you want financial, time, or location freedom, you have to invest your creative freedom to create the other 3.

Now here is the rub:

You don’t have to figure out what to create to manifest time freedom.

You have to live in your freedom and create what you desire.

This concept is the hardest thing for people to understand

To make it to financial freedom, you have to truly embrace and give yourself over to creative freedom.

If you begin to worry about whether people are going to like it or not or oof you’re creating the right thing, you are not in total freedom.

Total freedom means not caring whether people like it in a nonresistant way.

When you live in freedom, you attract it to you. When you are detached from the outcome, you’re not worried about the result, the views, the numbers, or the income; all of that brings resistance.

And resistance is the antithesis of freedom.

When you start living in your freedom, you attract people who are free or are seeking independence. When they invest in your “freedom” energy, they get the return they want. They get the feeling of freedom. THAT is what you want and should want to give to others.

Have you ever seen someone who did what they wanted to do all that time??? Did you ever envy them? I know I did.

Truth be told, I didn’t envy the person; I envied the freedom.

Freedom is what we truly want.

The money you desire is useless without the freedom to spend and enjoy it, is you, please.

So don’t waste time and energy trying to create financial freedom without leveraging creative freedom.

Think about what you want to create and then create it. Have fun with it. Don’t worry about trying to please a specific market.

Create from a place of purity, and everything you need to continue the work will come to you.
