If you’ve been waiting for the “perfect moment” to take control of your finances, here’s the truth: there isn’t one. The best step is always the first step — even if it’s small.
In 2018, I started with just 100 EUR and committed an entire year to reading everything I could about money — over 50 finance books in total. That year changed everything: it didn’t just grow my financial knowledge, it transformed my mindset, habits, and lifestyle trajectory. And you can do the same.
Why Learning Comes First
Taking control of your money starts with learning — not luck. Immersing yourself in the right books, tools, and strategies can change not only your bank account but your confidence, clarity, and the way you approach life itself.
Imagine dedicating yourself to understanding money for a year. The woman you’d become? Empowered, focused, and unstoppable.
10 Lessons for You
Here are the key insights that can help you move forward faster — without spending years figuring it out:
- Protect your time like gold. Time is the real currency. Don’t waste it on detours — choose the direct path, even if it costs a little more.
- Respect yourself first. Stop giving your time, energy, or skills away just to please others. When you value yourself, others will too.
- Go straight to results. Don’t wait for “perfect.” Start the business, make the investment, take action — clarity comes once you’re moving.
- Learn smarter. Audiobooks, podcasts, and videos let you fit learning into your life efficiently.
- Keep expanding your knowledge. The more you understand money, the more opportunities you’ll see — today and in the future.
- Spend with intention. Track your expenses, ask “Do I really need this?” and find creative solutions instead of buying impulsively.
- Think bigger. Money connects to politics, the economy, and self-development. Seeing the bigger picture leads to stronger decisions.
- Claim your financial power. Don’t hand over control to others. Learn, invest, and take ownership of your financial future.
- Surround yourself with growth. Step away from draining environments and people who hold you back.
- Stay committed. Financial freedom isn’t a dream — it’s a goal. With steady focus, your life can be very different in just one year.
