Your Essential Life

In our last post, we discussed the concept of Essential Wealth.

Now, your Essential Wealth is an enabler to your Essential Life.

What is your Essential Life?  It is Your Health, Your Career, and Your Calling.  It is your lifestyle.

Your Essential Life has several factors that we have various degrees of control over.

Take Life Span for instance. There are genetic elements of our life span that we don't control, but eating a proper diet and exercising regularly and making good choices regarding smoking and alcohol consumption will lead to a longer life.

Earnings has several elements that influence it.

The bottom line is that you take advantage of what you do have control over and make the most out of what you want to do with the resources you have available.  For some, that may mean a sabbatical or going on a mission and bypassing income in the short-term.  For others, it involves the risk of starting your own business or caring for an aging parent or special needs child.  In any case, if we can take care of your health, allow you to keep learning and growing in your career, and position you for whatever your calling is whenever it shows up, that you can do that through your enablement with Essential Wealth and an Essential Portfolio.

Now that we have set the table, we will begin dissecting the make-up of an essential portfolio.
