"The only real security that a person will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience and ability." - Henry Ford Wow would you believe it’s October already? And before you realize it Christmas will be here and 2009 would have passed you by. That’s why it’s so important to take some time to reflect on what’s happening in your lives and around you because your daily activities sometimes distract us from what is really happening. I think October gives you an opportunity with less than 100 days left in the year to see what you have accomplished, reminisced on the past, seriously consider your physical health, and diligently refocus your dreams for the future. Ironically, October has been declared not only youth’s month but also older persons month. Older persons can now look back over their lives and see the journey that they have made to where they are and younger persons can look forward to where the journey that they are on will take them. And no matter your age there are two things that would inevitably affect the quality of the lifestyle that you’re able to enjoy- Money and Health! Two issues that you cannot afford to ignore. While youth gives you the strength, the energy and enthusiasm to be able to focus all of your skills and energy on earning money. It is not until you’re much older that you really appreciate the value of that money that you would have earned. And why it is so important now for you to begin to teach your children the value of money. Never forgetting that money is only a tool that allows you to do what you want to do when you want to do it but this can only happen if you focus on creating wealth. Wealth is simply your ability to go without a pay cheque. So the question you should be asking yourself is “how long can I go without a pay cheque?" and this will tell you whether in fact you’re using your money to create wealth. Unfortunately, you do not recognize the importance of creating wealth until you would have exhausted your most valuable resource - Your Time. And there’s no time like now for you to recommit yourself to wealth creation as you recognize that jobs are really not guaranteed. You should never forget that your job is only a tool for you to use your skills to earn as much money as you possibly can for the time that you will work.
