Harness Money to Amplify Impact
In the video "Use Money as a Tool" from Leila Hormozi, the first money belief that will keep you poor is that the pursuit of money is selfish. What I've learned over time is that money only amplifies who you already are. I look at it like this: money is a tool, and so what I'm pursuing is my ability to have more tools in my toolbox. The argument that I've made to myself for why I want to make money is that I really do want to make an impact. However, when you're not experienced with money, you don't understand what it has the power to do. When you don't have money, you have fewer resources, and with fewer resources, you have less ability to help other people. Therefore, you owe it to yourself and, more importantly, to other people to accumulate more money, or more tools, so that you can help those people.
Pursuing money isn't selfish; it's essential. When you view money as a tool, you realize that more resources mean more opportunities to make a difference. With money, you expand your ability to help others.
Leila Hormozi emphasizes that money, rather than being an end goal, should be viewed as a powerful tool for amplifying one's ability to make a meaningful impact. By dismantling the misconception that chasing wealth is inherently selfish, she illustrates how financial resources can enhance our capacity to support and uplift others. The notion that money enables us to create positive change aligns with the idea that personal growth and financial literacy can empower us to effect meaningful transformations in our communities.
