So I got myself into something. This past 2 weeks I have been really pursuing online marketing and getting into all kinds of Facebook pages that teaches marketing, or even an opportunity to win marketing lessons, I have attended multiple BNI meetings (Business Network International). It takes a lot of work. I am not very tech savvy so it takes me even longer. As much as I don't want to be in social media, that's the way the world is going and because I have a business, that's the best way to reach out to people. I have also been connecting with clients to provide me with great reviews online. I am trying to do as much marketing as I can, I have been praying that the Lord will help me double my income/clientele. My main focus is to fund my retirement so that Scott and I can be financially prepared to go on a couple mission sooner rather than later as soon as we are empty nesters.
So this week, I got involved into crypto currency. As I have been busy networking online and inviting people to join a particular group so that I can win the marketing price. I randomly invited someone and I got invited to join The Crypto Journey FB group. I saw the people's testimonies and I got convinced that I would probably join this group. I prayed about it, perhaps, I sort of when into it rashly, but it's been a few days, I am now in it, I have to make it work. It is multi level marketing, I bring people into forsage and I earn Ethereum (crypto currency like Bitcoin which was the first and leading, ETH is 2nd). I joined in level 6, not fully comprehending how it works to begin with, but now that I signed up I cannot get that $1200 back which I used to buy the smart contracts, now I have to market and do the work in inviting others to join to earn commission. I then decided yesterday, to buy 2 coins of Etherium outside of forsage and intend to just hold it. Nov 17, the price of ETH was $460 when I bought the smart contracts, today ETH is $547. It was forecasted to go to $1 000 by December, so hopefully I am making a good decision investing in crypto currencies.
I believe that even my financials and investing strategies can be spiritual. I shall not seek for reaches but only after I have sought the Lord first. I know that all these things are material possession and are only meant to help others. I pray fervently that the Lord direct my actions and decisions as I seek him to guide me with my investments so that Scott and I can be prepared to go on a mission. That is my goal. I have contributed about 12k in my retirement savings funds alone this year. I am playing catch up. I don't need material things, I just need to build wealth and use it for the Lord's purpose. I pray I can be worthy of this goal.
I am thankful for my family and the gospel in my life. I pray I never waiver nor lose sight of what matters most. I pray that I can make the Lord the center of my life and my home.
