Alright!
Welcome everybody to Coffee with Markus.
Today, from Florida.
So I'm here Jensen Beach because my son has a sailing regatta over the next few days.
And I'll be joining live.
So we just arrived and in the background you can see, right there, he is actually rigging his boat.
So they're getting ready to head out.
So there, you see it in the background.
Anyhow today I want to talk to you about the "4 Different Levels of Freedom"
Since we're here at the beach, I'm gonna walk around.
As you can see it is nice and beautiful.
It's very sunny. Almost too sunny here.
So it's probably 90 degrees here, beautiful.
And so let's talk about the 4 different levels of freedom.
Level number one: Freedom of money
Meaning that you have enough money that you can do whatever you want.
As you can see if I choose to go here -
with my son Julius to Florida from Texas, to participate in the sailing regatta -
we can, no problem at all.
Now this leads me to the important... freedom number two -
Freedom number two: Freedom of time
So yes, we have been traveling for the past two days, and that's not a problem.
Because you see, I don't have to be somewhere.
I don't have to be in an office.
Look at all these beautiful sailing boats, right?
Okay anyhow, so that's a beautiful thing.
If I choose to take some time off to be here with my son, I can do this.
And this is what I love about trading.
Now let's talk about freedom number three.
Freedom number three: Freedom of relationships
And what does this mean?
It means that I can choose with whom I want to hang out!
I don't have to hang out with coworkers, or bosses who I don't like.
That's a different level of freedom which is really important.
Because you see, you are the sum of the five people you spend most of the time with.
And if the five people you spend most of time with are annoying people -
you actually could become really annoying!
So having this third level of freedom, where you have freedom of relationship is really important.
Now the fourth level of freedom: "Freedom of Purpose"
And this is where it means that you can pursue the purpose that you want.
I mean, what do you really want to do in life?
I mean, maybe you want to open orphanages?
I talked to a lady the other day who wanted to open orphanages all around the country.
Maybe you want to paint!
Maybe you want to teach kids!
I mean whatever it is, you probably have a purpose in life.
And it's probably not sitting in front of the computer all day doing some work that you don't like.
See, that is why I love trading.
Because trading allows you to do these things.
To have these four levels of freedom.
Again let's summarize it.
Level number one is "Freedom of Money"
Level number two is "Freedom of Time"
Level number three is "Freedom of Relationships"
Level four is "Freedom of Purpose"
So anyhow, now you know what I've been doing over the past days.
I traveled all the way from Texas to Florida.
We're at Jensen Beach at the U.S. Sailing Center.
And this is where he'll have a regatta this weekend.
So they're rigging today because they want to prepare for the race.
They want to practice!
And we're going to talk about that in another coffee with Markus.
You need to be prepared when trading!
So for today, the main message is, keep in mind that there are four levels of freedom.
And it is not only about the money.
This is what everybody thinks, that it's about the money.
NO!
It is about the things that money can do for you.
Its buying you the other levels of freedom.
The freedom of time.
The freedom of relationships.
And the freedom of purpose.
And that's what I want to leave you with today.
I'll be back here showing you some more stuff.
So tomorrow, all of this will be full of sailing boats.
The spots are already marked.
Let me just zoom in here a little bit.
On the floor, I don't know - it might be hard to see.
So there will be probably more than a 100 boats.
And they will be competing right here.
It's beautiful. It's a nice and windy day - as you can see at my hair.
It sure is windy here.
Which is perfect because that's what you want as a sailor.
Anyhow, I want to encourage you to do something.
Take action so that you can enjoy these four levels of freedom.
If you don't change nothing, nothing will change.
So make sure that you are taking action!
You are meant to thrive.
You are meant for more.
Alright, from the beautiful Jensen Beach in Florida,
This is Markus!
I wish you a wonderful weekend.
Oops!!!
Have a great day, and I'll see you next time.
Take care!
