The Mindful FIRE Podcast 159 : Meditation : Mindsets to Attract Opportunity in 2025
In this episode: Guided affirmations practice to speed up your journey to FI
Want to reach financial independence faster? Learn to spot and act on opportunities around you. These could be things like finding a new job, catching up with old contacts, or starting a side business. Once you train your mind to look for opportunities, you'll start seeing them everywhere.
I created a meditation to help you do exactly this - to help you see opportunities and take action toward your goals. I practice this daily, and it has changed my life completely. It even helped me bounce back during one of my toughest times. I'll tell you that full story soon.
This meditation uses mindset affirmations - positive statements that we repeat to ourselves to build new thought patterns. You can use this technique to develop any mindset you want.
In this meditation, we'll focus on two main mindsets:
- Opportunities are all around me - in my life and in my work.
- When I take action, I learn and grow.
Here's why this works: Your brain is always trying to predict what will happen next. It prepares your thoughts, feelings, and even your body for what it thinks is coming.
Think of it like this: We all tell ourselves stories about how our lives will turn out, and then we act in ways that make those stories come true. The good news? We can choose better stories to tell ourselves.
I hope you'll try this powerful practice. Stay tuned for more tips about using your brain's predictive nature to help you reach financial independence. Join our email list to get updates when new content is available.
