Where does 'More' come from?

The phone call

I recently received a call from a telemarketer selling financial planning. Often, their strategies are convincing, as they come up with innovative ways for us to get more from our investments. 

Meanwhile, many of my colleagues are watching their retirement investments dwindle.

I asked him my favourite question; “Where does ‘more’ come from?” There was silence.

Then I asked him, “Do you agree that ‘less’ comes from making wrong decisions?” He said, “Absolutely, yes.”

Then he asked me, “What are your strategies, and where do you invest?”

I told him my primary investment is a clear mind. This is where ‘more’ comes from.

Where does 'Less' come from?

Constantly believing that we have no time is primarily driven by inner tension, which, in turn, leads to a sense of urgency to make unclear decisions.

Subsequently, you may have given far too much of your time and money to things that don’t really serve you.

This leads to less time and money for you and your loved ones, leaving some of us feeling quite isolated. This is where ‘less’ comes from.

Where time and money go?

The following is based on a young Family of Four. I have chosen two areas where we have all formed quite strong habits:

  • Social Media
  • Health Products

Social Media

Research by Global WebIndex, shows that globally, 60% of the world’s population uses social media.
 
The average daily usage is 2 hours and 24 minutes (April – June 2023).
 

Family of Four:

  • Daily: 9.5 Hours
  • Weekly: 2.8 Days or 67.3 Hours
  • Monthly: 12 Days or 288 Hours
  • Annually: 146 Days or 3504 Hours

Health Products

In 2021, U.S. healthcare spending reached $4.3 trillion, which averages to about $12,900 per person. (30 Jan 2023).

Family of Four:

  • Daily: 141.36
  • Weekly: $992.30
  • Monthly: $4,300
  • Annually: $51,600 

Not hours! How many Days?

How many days of the week do you need to work in order to pay for your habit with them? 

That was just two out of many industries competing for your attention, time and money. Now is the time to start making clearer choices.

Where does 'More' come from?

Practising the Clarity method will equal your effort.

As you gain more clarity, you increasingly make clearer choices and get clearer outcomes.

This is where ‘more’ comes from.
