The key to wealth independence from zero │ "One-person company's thinking of getting rich"
Not long after I joined the company, I found myself yearning for the life of a freelancer. I don’t have to be tied to a company to work eight hours a week from Monday to Friday, but because I don’t have passive income (or ability to handle cases) to support my life, I have to be an office worker. (The income from this job allows me to write with peace of mind after get off work.) This little dream is the reason why I read Ye Hao’s book.
In the first few chapters of the book, Haoye shared his story of running the YT channel. Whether it is from the original intention to the attempts in the process, how to manage a personal brand, how to find a channel to position yourself, etc., it is also worth watching. But since the title of the book is "The Thinking of Getting Rich in a One-Man Company", the questions I had when I read this book were also related to "getting rich". This time I want to share the content of Chapter 7 "The Key to Wealth Autonomy".
Zero-to-Financial Autonomy Secrets: Use Your Resources Well
Without resources and background, how can you achieve financial freedom?
The answer is one word: "exchange" . If you want to get something, you have to exchange what you have.
Haoye shared that he was in charge of the event when he was in college. He didn't seem to make much money. From the event, he learned a lot of business principles. It was like he used his ability to prepare the event to "exchange" other people's participation. These bits and pieces won the trust of others, and later became the activity director of the dormitory.
Later, he started to run a YouTube channel. He got up at 5:00 every morning to make videos, went to work at the company at 7:00, and continued to make videos after get off work. It was also the possibility for him to "exchange" the passive income of construction with the rest time outside work. After a year of hard work, The channel brings 8,000 yuan in advertising revenue. Haoye believes that the investment project with the highest return when he was young is "investing in himself". He initially invested half of his savings (10,000 yuan) into the channel, and later created a monthly income of 8,000 yuan for him, which will continue to increase.
How to accumulate wealth
1. Accumulate resources <br class="smart">At the beginning when there are no resources, the first pot of gold must be saved, and this process requires self-discipline, sacrifice, and a willingness to delay enjoyment. While accumulating the first pot of gold, in fact, not only accumulate wealth, but also accumulate your own connections, skills, knowledge and personal value in the process. These resources are the main factor that will bring you income in the future.
2.

The society is never short of money. What is lacking is the ability to make money. Accumulate your network resources, skills resources, and knowledge resources. This is the key to whether you can turn the first bucket of gold into ten buckets of gold.
When accumulating wealth, have you ever thought about what you want in your heart?
funeral game
The ideal life that everyone pursues is different. Some people pursue stability and happiness, while others pursue challenges. No matter what kind of life you pursue, the important thing is to "don't let yourself regret it". The Funeral Game is a game that helps people orientate, set goals, and stimulate latent desires. It consists of the following steps:
(1) Imagine ten years from now that you are dead and the ten people you care about most come to your funeral
(2) imagine how they describe you
Ex: He is a hard worker
(3) From these narrative sentences, extract words related to value and meaning
For example: He is a good father, and the value is "family"
(4) Quantify these values into ten-year goals
Such as: One of the values is wealth, imagine how much wealth you will accumulate in ten years, and quantify the goal. After the fourth step you can break it down into smaller goals, such as this year's goals, and review them regularly.
