Mark and I had the most amazing weekend. It all started a few weeks ago when our friend Casey gave us a book called Secrets of the Millionaire Mind by T. Harv Eker. Mark and I will be the first to say that we are not real great at the money game, we have great ideas but nothing ever comes of them. On top of that we were raised as complete polar opposites when it comes to managing money. So, I was all for reading something that might put Mark and I on the same financial page. The book was amazing! I learned so much about why I react the way I do to money. The book came with 2 free tickets to a 3 day intensive seminar and Mark and I decided that after seeing how much we learned by reading the book that we would be missing a lot if we didn't go to the seminar.
So, bright and early Friday morning the 2nd of May Mark and I flew out to Denver, CO. We got to the conference 5 minutes before it started at 9 in the morning and it ended that night at 10:30 pm. Saturday the conference went from 9 am until 10 pm and Sunday from 8 am to 7 pm, at which point we rushed back to the airport and flew home.
Some of my favorite things I learned were proper allocations of our money. We learned how to have balance in our lives with allocating our money into separate accounts for tithing, the golden egg account, long term savings for spending, education, Play, and necessities. We learned that it isn't the amount that you put into the accounts that is as important as the habit. We learned about the importance of giving and how to be better receivers as well, and another favorite of mine was emphasis on learning how to celebrate each of our successes. I have come home a better person with more confidence in myself and my abilities. Thank you Casey once again for giving Mark and I the book and the financial freedom that we learned because of it.
