The Beauty of a Type 5 Person

IN EVERY Stage of our lives, we experience either being free or not. There are times when we can do whatever we want to do. And there are also times where we can't do what we love the most. There are many definitions of freedom. Two of them are money and time freedom.

"There is no true freedom if there is no financial freedom." -  Rich Dad
One of my business mentors shared about the beauty of a type 5 person. It was the type he wanted to be when he haven't yet considered himself being financially free. Then he shared all of the types. They are as follows:


Type 1 - No Time with a lot of Money.
These people are the self-employed and professionals. Most doctors, lawyers and small business owners are included in this type of person. My mentor said it's ok to be type 1. Just don't complain of not having time.

Type 2 - A lot of Time with No Money.
Most of these people are bum. Either they are just lazy or didn't have the opportunity that they have been looking for. My mentor said this is better than type 1 since you can do a lot and it's ok to be like this. Still, just don't complain of not having money.

Type 3 - No Time and Money.
These are generally employees. He said that he really respect these people. He joked that they must be really spiritual. They sacrifice so much both time and money.

Type 4 - A lot of Time and Money. They are also Old.
These people are retirees and some of them used to be type 1. He said he might ended up with this type if he didn't look for an alternative aside from his traditional fashion business.

Type 5 - A lot of Time and Money. They are also Young.
These people are either in inventors of today and some of those who are in distributorship business. This was what my mentor wanted really to be.

Now my mentor is enjoying his life of being financially free. He is more than 50 years old but he moves and looks like only 25. He loves dancing and we really enjoy it when he gives presentations and special training. Most of us really attend since we know it's really fun, informative and full of energy.

It is ok to be whatever type of person you want to be. Nobody should decide for you. It's your decision and people should respect it. Also, being type 5 is not instant. You will undergo being type 1, 3 or both. It takes a process. Even if you are type 4, there is a way to be type 5. I hope this message gave you a beautiful insight today.

Cheers!
