What it’s REALY like to be a millionaire. Is this something you have ever thought about? Many people have an idealized notion of what it means to be a millionaire.

Just because someone is a millionaire, that doesn’t necessarily mean that their lifestyle aligns with their bank account.

Most successful millionaires do not live how you think they do. Not only that, but they set themselves apart from others by the skills that they have mastered; like confidence, discipline, emotional intelligence, and money management; to name a few.

Becoming a millionaire doesn’t happen overnight. I know that many of you have goals and aspirations of joining the ‘millionaire club’ one day, so I’m happy to share my story with you.

Are you ready to learn what it’s REALLY like to be a millionaire? You may be surprised by what I have to say.

Since I was 17 years old, becoming a millionaire was a goal of mine. I became a millionaire when I was 28 years old.  When I achieved the label of ‘millionaire', it didn’t mean that much to me, like I thought it would.

A more pivotal moment in my life was the point at which I was making a 6-figure salary. That is when my life transformed. I was able to travel, quit my 9-5 job, and I didn’t have to worry about money. I had finally achieved financial freedom.

This is what it’s REALLY like to be a millionaire.

A lot of people get consumed with the idea of making ‘big’ money, fast. Adopting this get rich quick mentality can be a form of ego gratification or an insecurity.

When you are obsessed with making a lot of money, it is easy to lose sight of what really matters most in life – happiness. The fact is that money does not buy happiness.

Research shows that wealth may make it harder for you to appreciate simple pleasures in life, and that’s bad news for your mindset, given that most of life is made up of simple moments that have a lasting impact on our lives.

Michael Norton, co-author of the book, Happy Money: The Science of Happier Spending, suggests that, while this is all well and good, the simple pleasures in life don’t seem as exciting as the extraordinary ones.

However, he points out that you can shift this perspective by giving up a simple pleasure for a period of time, which will allow you to savor it even more when you bring it back into your life.

Oftentimes our favorite moments in life don’t involve extravagant things. Rather, they are simple things, like a conversation that left you laughing for hours with people that you love.

This is what it’s REALLY like to be a millionaire.

As many of you know, I preach the value of life mastery. I believe that relationships, health, and positive emotions trump money. You can have all the money in the world, but still be depressed, lonely, and unhealthy. In my eyes, that’s not a definition of success. That’s failure.

I know that I said earlier that I don’t think that money can buy happiness, but there are some circumstances where I believe that it can.

Money allows you to travel the world and experience new and exciting things. Memories of places that I’ve gone and the people whom I’ve shared those experiences with have brought an abundance of joy and happiness to my life.

Money also allows you to invest in yourself. If you aren’t growing, you are dying. The more that you are progressing in life, the happier you will be. For example, I am able to purchase things like a PEMF EarthPulse mat for my bed, which improves my sleep, so that I can perform at my best, every day.

Lastly, one of the biggest things that money provides you with is time. When you leverage it correctly, you can use time to do more of what you really love.

To make a million dollars you need to become someone of value and develop incredible habits that translate to all areas of your life. That is what I am most proud of in my life. The money that I’ve made as a result of the work I’ve done is merely a secondary benefit.

This is what it’s REALLY like to be a millionaire.

Jim Rohn once said, “The greatest reward in becoming a millionaire is not the amount of money that you earn. It is the kind of person that you have to become to become a millionaire.”

Are you ready to upgrade your lifestyle? Be proactive and strive to become the best version of yourself. When you commit to life mastery, anything is possible.

I’m here to tell you if you’re not outside your comfort zone, you won’t learn anything. By nature, human beings crave security and comfort. Although a comfort zone feels safe, this isn’t where the magic happens.

A study conducted back in 1908 showed that remaining in a state of comfort ensured steady performance, however, in order to increase or maximize performance levels, we need to be in a space of “optimal anxiety”. Another words, a little bit of fear is a good thing.

Brene Brown, a research professor at the University of Houston, explains that, “One of the worst things we can do is pretend that fear and uncertainty don’t exist.” Anything of value in life requires that you push your boundaries. When you get out of your comfort zone, you challenge yourself to do things that you wouldn’t normally do.

Everything that you desire in life is outside of your comfort zone and inside your learning zone. What would you do if you weren’t afraid?

I’m not suggesting that you jump head first outside of your comfort zone. Rather, take baby steps towards the fear that you are trying to overcome.

When you break through your fear, day-by-day, you become more confident, and you develop the momentum that you need in order to grow and evolve into the person that you are meant to be. I believe it’s not what you get in life that makes you happy, but rather it’s who you become.

If you are constantly afraid to take risks in life and do things that scare you, you will never truly understand who you are. As they say, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

To this day, I am constantly pushing myself and doing things that allow me to grow. The reality is that if you aren’t growing, you’re dying. If you want to master your life, you need to learn how to be comfortable being uncomfortable.

Yes, the feeling of being uncomfortable can be painful at first. Personal growth and transformation is never easy, or else everyone would do it. When we start to push our boundaries, there will always be a little bit of resistance. However, the reality is that comfort is the enemy.

To clarify this point, I am reminded of a quote from Arnold Schwarzenegger who said that, “The last three or four reps is what makes the muscle grow. This area of pain divides the champion from someone who is not a champion. That’s what most people lack, having the guts to go on and just say they’ll go through the pain no matter what happens.”

Any time you feel uncomfortable or nervous, celebrate those emotions. This is allowing is allowing you to grow. For example, next month I’m giving a speech in front of one thousand people.

I have to admit that the idea of it makes me uncomfortable. But that doesn’t hold me back from doing it because I have conditioned my mind to view it as an exciting opportunity, rather than a fearful one.

I don’t have to give the speech. I want to do it, because I know that discomfort is what will allow me to grow and fully embody the person that I desire to be. Become who you want to be now!

My challenge to you is to do something that you wouldn’t normally do, because if you’re not outside your comfort zone, you won’t learn anything. Brian Tracy said it best – “Move out of your comfort zone. You can only grow if you are willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new.”

Face your fears and know that you are supposed to feel a bit scared in the process. That is how you know you are making progress! Reframe fear in a positive way. When you do so, it will change how you feel.

The unknown is a magical place. This is where your dreams manifest themselves. Are you going to play it safe and keep dreaming of a better life, or are you going step outside of your comfort zone and design the life that you desire?

The choice is yours. I challenge you to take the leap!
