Feeling stuck in your current job?
I get it, I was a server at Chili’s but I learned a valuable skill that helped me increase my income and started saving more money.
Honestly i dont think it’s about talent, it’s about mindset
I know it sounds simple but if I didn’t believe in myself, I wouldn’t be where I’m at today
Here are 3 things that I did to get out of that situation:
1/ I learn how to code, specifically javascript
I picked it because it was growing in demand, and I have a natural inclination towards technical things rather than, sales. I’m not telling you to learn how to code, but stat looking around, see what the market needs and what skill is suitable for you.
2/ I started cutting a lot of my spending and keep them to a minimal
I ate ramen everyday, I didnt’ go out much, I didnt’ buy things that I wanted, I was only paying for essentials things so that I can save more money
And till this day, even when my income increases, I still try to keep my expenses as low as possible
3/ Started looking for opportunities
The reason why I kept my expenses minimal is so that I can have money work for me, money breeds more money
When an opportunity comes but you have no money to invest, you won’t be able to take advantage of it.
