“Start changing how you think about things. Don’t think like the average person.” –Paul Halme
A good money mindset is key to a successful financial life. It’s what separates the people who make money and those who just have it. If we have a good money mindset, we understand that our wealth is not found in our bank account but in our ability to generate income, manage expenses, and build assets.
This week, I got to sit down with entrepreneur, speaker, mentor, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu World Champion, and bestselling author, Paul Halme.
Although being in the corporate world was an amazing experience for Paul, he still felt that something was missing. He wanted to do more— something different. So, he ventured into entrepreneurship and opened his own gym, which later became one of the most successful gyms in the US. Today, Paul is helping entrepreneurs grow their wealth while living a free lifestyle.
Listen in as Paul shares insights and wisdom to help us build a proper money mindset. Paul and I also discuss investment secrets to grow our wealth, what makes sales easier, how we can leverage our credit score, how automation can help us manage our assets, and why we should not forget to enjoy the journey while we’re in it.
