Build Up Your Assets

There are 4 major assets you need in your career as a Professional to be able to scale up and build sustainable wealth, thus;

1. Intellectual Capital

2. Social Capital

3. Human Capital

4. Financial Capital

If you're a young professional in your 20's and starting out, you can focus on the first 2 for a start.

Dear young professionals in your 20's starting out, the first thing you should focus on is building up your assets. When starting out, you need 2 capitals that will propel you to the next level: intellectual and social capital.

Invest in yourself; learn as much as you can, expand your knowledge, upskill and try out many things when you're still young and have the time and energy to explore life. Do things now that you're still excited about them. Once you start gaining some level of traction and making some money, invest it back into yourself. Also, invest into Coaches and Mentors that can fast track your personal development process.

The goal of building your intellectual capital is to be perceived as a person of value. Remember, money is a by-product of value. Start positioning yourself as a person of value. Once people start perceiving you as a person of value, you will be valuable in the marketplace.

When you start having a sense of value, then you will be able to build your social capital with ease. It's quite daunting to build a really strong, rich and valuable network without having a sense of intellectual capital.

In the process of you building your intellectual capital, you want to find as many ways as possible to help people with your intellect. When you build up your intellectual capital, eventually, people will notice you and you will attract valuable people. Only then can you be able to build your social capital. Remember, you attract what you are. If you're a person of value, you will attract valuable people with ease. Your network is your net-worth. The stronger and more valuable the network you have, the more opportunities will come faster and easier for you.

Human Capital are for business owners/entrepreneurs. Those building businesses. Here you're being able to recruit others (the right people) into your team easily and affordably so you can be able to scale up your time.

Financial Capital is where you make life changing money. Remember, money is a by-product of value. While doing all of these, you will start making more money to be able to invest in what you want and build future/generation wealth.

In conclusion, consistency is key. Do not procrastinate. Start early to build the life of your dreams. Put in the work so you can be able to see results on time. The sooner you become a person of privilege, the sooner you can create peace in your life and you can actually live the life that you want.

Build sustainable assets, work hard and smart for everything you've ever wanted, acquire all the things, make all the money, do it sooner rather than later, because the sooner that you can get everything that you've ever wanted, the sooner life becomes meaningful for you. It is better to be sooner than later. Life is meant to be simple. Fulfill your potentials and live life purposefully.
