Financial Literacy 101; Cash Flow Vs. Cash-Strapped

#SkillUP Call To Action

One of my goals for 2023 is to create a solid financial foundation. This doesn't necessary mean to become a millionaire, but to develop a pattern within my chosen lifestyle as a freelancer that will allow me to save and invest. Savings might occasionally be simple if you have a good habit; investing, however, is a different matter. Finding the right mix between investing and saving can be difficult, particularly if your cash flow is tight.

SKILL UP Master Session 

Around March 2023, I would love to conduct a skill-up session for young people where we will talk about and decipher our unspoken financial paths. Currently I'm looking for a partner who we can co-host this session by sponsoring some of the items on the budget.

If you would like to join me on this adventure, please get in contact. I'm planning an event for young people, especially those from underprivileged communities who cannot afford to pay for this expensive training, whether it be online or offline.

This session aims to talk more about our experiences as "street school" while also looking for solutions from other sources and our own pathways.

The Cash Flow Or Cash-Strapped Theory + throughMylens

How do you fit into this diagram? Are you in cash flow or are you cash-strapped?

Take Note!

Freelancing isn't simple, and many people have started businesses for the wrong reasons, lasting only a short time before becoming cash-strapped.  I will share more as a facilitator if I am successful in organizing this session.

"Don't assume that only accountants and those in the finance department need financial literacy; it applies to everyone." - Wilson Masaka, Youth Advocate & Social Entrepreneur.

 The viewpoint 

Great ideas may originate from anybody, in my opinion, but they can also be squashed by those in positions of authority inside an organizations just because they aren't the original thinkers or creators of the idea. Just thoughtful! 

 Which of the following individuals is most likely to be given an audience in African settings and have their ideas developed further? 

      A) A rich man with 'poor' idea. 

      B) A poor man with 'rich' idea. 

Note: In terms of ideas, I've used the term rich to denote great and insightful whilst for poor to mean average, bad or half baked. #MetaphoricallySpeaking #Generalization 

Quote 

 "We will continue to underutilize our potential as human beings unless we reframe and rewire our views about how we see ideas, not just from their source but rather from the impact they stand to generate." - Wilson Masaka Whatever your current position is at work, you should develop your ability to express your ideas clearly, influence others' opinions, persuade them to support them, and have an open mind in the case that your ideas are rejected. 

One thing to keep in mind, though, is to have your idea bank close at hand because you never know when you'll need it.
