Success Starts Here
Tell your ambitions to the community. Your future success depends on what you do now, not what you study.
Welcome, Future Successes
There’s a lot to learn here, and it’s all crucial for achieving future success. Be sure to check out my blog when I notify you on LinkedIn. I’ll be discussing why you shouldn’t feel obligated to attend college after high school and instead focus on building your future immediately. In many cases, post-secondary education can be a waste of time and money. Let me guide you on how to make the most of your time and achieve success and freedom faster by starting now! You can find all of my No Need For College posts below.
Your future is full of potential success, and it’s up to you to achieve it. Don’t feel obligated to pursue post-secondary education if it’s not the right fit for you. Starting to work on your success now is the best way to achieve it faster. Don’t wait, take action and start building the life you want today!
What do you do instead?
Start investing in yourself by reading business books, watching online videos, and reading blogs about topics that interest you. The amount of information available for learning is vast, but you don’t need to pay for it. Learning for pleasure and pursuing your passions is more effective. I learned more in a few books than I did in two years of studying marketing. Focus on applicable knowledge for your interests and goals, and be strategic in the time and resources you invest. For example, take a single course or a free LinkedIn course on running a business instead of spending years and resources on a degree that may not benefit you. Remember, learning and growth are essential for personal success and professional advancement.
Create your future now. Welcome to a life without post-secondary.
Steps to Future Success
First, finish high school:
You need to have the basic knowledge to succeed in the future.
Second, find work:
Achieving a high-income level is key to quickly building your savings. Consider finding a well-paying job that allows you to enjoy life now while also pursuing your goals for the future. There are many great career opportunities available that offer high wages. Personally, I worked at an aggregate mine and earned well above minimum wage. In hindsight, instead of investing thousands of dollars into college, I could have used that money to start a business or invest in stocks, particularly in index funds. This would have allowed me to start building my wealth and achieve my financial goals sooner.
Work On Your Dreams
Use the money you’ve saved from your earnings to invest in yourself and pursue your dreams. For me, that meant starting a business that includes two blogs and a marketing consulting service. In addition, I have launched a real estate service business that focuses on interior design and drone photography and eventually expands to rentals, sales, and property management. Running a business opens up endless possibilities, so choose work that aligns with your passions. Whether it’s teaching yoga or offering marketing consulting services, there are opportunities to monetize your skills and hobbies. People are willing to pay for a wide range of services, so adjust your approach to maximize your earnings.
