In this week’s episode of The Pursuit I briefly put my financial advisor hat on to discuss the importance of financial planning for your pursuit and share how a financial advisor, who understands you have bigger aspirations that retirement and college planning, can help not only identify what you value the most, but help you align your finances with your pursuit. It’s a little self-serving as this is the type of planning we do at RLS Wealth but I share this because it is important for your personal pursuit and to let you know there are more financial advisors taking this approach to planning–help is out there, you just need to know where to look. If you need help finding the “right” advisor to help you with your pursuit, let me know–I know plenty and would happily connect you with the advisor I think would be best to assist you.
Before we get to the importance of planning, I share some thoughts about how along your pursuit opportunities, conversations, and even chapters of a book present themselves at the most important, yet unexpected times.
Notes For The Episode
During the episode, I reference Lao Tzu’s Tao Te Ching, which you can grab a copy of here, and the specific chapter below.
The Empty Heart
From Lao Tzu’s Tao Te Ching translated by Urusula K. Le Guin
“The greatest power is the gift
of following the Way alone.
How the Way does things
is hard to grasp, elusive.
Elusive, yes, hard to grasp,
yet there are thoughts in it.
Hard to grasp, yes, elusive,
yet there are things in it.
Hard to make out, yes, and obsucre,
yet there is spirit in it,
veritable spirit.
There is certainty init.
From long, long ago till now
it has kept its name.
So it saw
the beginning of everything.
How do I know
anything about the beginning?
By this.”
