Wise Words.

“The fact that I’m me and no one else is one of my greatest assets.”

Haruki Murakami

If Everything Goes To Hell.

Do you have your "If everything goes to hell" plan ready?

Things are changing fast.

Faster than you think.

Jobs are being cut left and right.

A.I. is taking over more roles every day (see: jobs being cut above).

And things are unpredictable (2024 election, anyone?).

My suggestion: Winging it works best when you're prepared.

So, here's your "If everything goes to hell" starter pack:

Cash In The Bank

Aim for 6 - 12 months of savings. A year is ideal. This dough is the difference between panic and peace of mind if things go sideways.

Reintroduce Yourself

Start reintroducing yourself to your network now. Don’t wait until you're in a tight spot. People won’t know what you're up to unless you tell them. Reach out, stay top of mind, and keep your connections strong.

Have An Offer Ready

Believe it or not, you have something you can monetize. Whether it's consulting, freelancing, or something else, have a plan that can bring in quick revenue if you need it (see: Reintroduce Yourself above).

I’ve worked with people to build their “If everything goes to hell” plan.

They usually start off feeling stressed.

But when it’s over, they feel like they shed 25 pounds of worry.

It’s the equivalent of a tune-up for your car to ensure everything is running smooth like it’s supposed to instead of breaking down on the side of the road when it’s cold, raining, and there’s no cell phone service to be found.

It's the difference between being proactive versus reactive.

Bottom Line

Don’t wait for the storm to hit (cause one day it's gonna hit).

Get your plan, and your peace of mind, in place now.

Bonus Coaching

You (not the economy) are the life-altering event you've been waiting for.

Read. Listen. Watch.

The 3 types of luck. Context totally matters. The role of the family financier (aka husband/dad). When people say they want stability, what they’re really asking for is this. We’re here for a good time, not a long time.
