Carve Your Own Pony

Money is a carousel with many mounts.

First you earn it.
Protect it.
Budget it.
Make it grow.
Make it non-taxable.
Make it passive.
Make it perpetual.

Now you have the money and time (and hopefully health) to achieve anything else worthy of your attention and energy.

Thirty-plus years ago, God graced me with an epiphany while mowing the lawn.

“Of all the challenges we're here to overcome on earth, money is the easiest.”

Prior to that, all I’d learned about money was how to earn it and how to spend it. I was stuck on the job carousel.

I’d still be spinning without that epiphany. It nudged me to become “money brave.”

God’s grace reminded me I had many more gears inside than I was using. I was throttled down by racing with the trapped mediocre mass of men.

Grace pointed me to life outside the carousel. Out there, you set your own rules. Your own speed. Your own results.

You carve your own pony.

Later, when you’ve overcome money, you realize you’d been Hercules, struggling to lift a feather.

That I'd made it so challenging was so ridiculous.

“Of all the challenges we're here to overcome on earth, money is the easiest.”
