FOMO vs. FOCUS:
The Real “F-Word” That Builds Wealth
Most new investors don’t fail from lack of effort.
They fail from FOMO — Fear of Missing Out.
They chase.
They stretch.
They jump at shiny deals because someone else posted a win.
But here’s the truth:
FOMO leads to frantic decisions.
FOCUS leads to financial freedom.
At this phase in life, I’m Fiercely Focused on:
- Family – the foundation and fuel behind everything
- Finances – the freedom lever
- Fitness – physical, mental, and spiritual strength
- Faith – keeps me grounded and guided
- Fortitude – to face every challenge without flinching
- Fulfillment – doing what matters, not just what pays
- Foresight – playing the long game
- Freedom – financial, spiritual, and time-based
- Fuel – physical, mental, and relational energy
- Flourishing Forever – a long, healthy life
Everything else?
Just fluff!!!
DMN Tip:
Rewire your mind from reaction to repetition.
Train your subconscious to value discipline over dopamine.
RAS Tip:
Your brain sees what you tell it to look for.
Feed it your Buy Box.
Feed it Focus.
Feed it Facts.
PRO TIP:
The people who win in this game aren’t the ones who sprint.
They’re the ones who stack wins daily — even when no one’s watching.
If it doesn’t Feed one of my “F’s,” it’s not in my Field of Fire.
So yes…I’ll let someone else chase the next “deal of the day.”
I’m over here building something that lasts.
“This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.”
