How to practise Financial Freedom at work.

Financial Freedom — a practice from Modern is Money buys time. Time is what wealth actually is. Here is how to bring it into your life between meetings, without anyone seeing.

  1. Step 1

    Use the gap between two meetings

    Ninety seconds. No app, no notification. Financial Freedom fits inside the gap that other people throw away.

  2. Step 2

    Recall the teaching once

    Hold the sentence: Money buys time. Time is what wealth actually is. Let it touch the conversation you just finished, and the one you are about to enter.

  3. Step 3

    Name a single application for the next hour

    Not the whole day. The next hour. One reply you will write more honestly. One sentence you will leave unsaid. One person you will hear better than the email lets you.

  4. Step 4

    Walk back in slightly slowed

    The practice is not the recall; it is the slightly different entry. Most colleagues will not notice. The work, quietly, gets a different colour.

That is the entire practice. You do not need a longer version of Financial Freedom than this — only a more regular one.
