Homework Day 1

EDITED*

5 STRUGGLES

1. I have insane debt, like embarrassing debt.

2. I struggle with my body and fashion. I feel like idk how to dress so im constantly switching it up and it bugs me big time. With my body I feel like it's hard to dress it how I want, so I just settle.

3. Sometimes I feel guilt that I don't spend quality time with my son and wife. I use the spare time I have to learn and ask and research.

4. I cant be consistent, I always fall off on something.

5. I have all these great ideas but I never pull the trigger because of the money I'm trying to save. Im scared Ill fail and put my family through it.

5 CONTRASTING WINS

1. Yeah it's crazy, but maybe learning this debt the hard way is what's helping me be more financially stable and smarter, so when I do get crazy rich ill actually know how to manage it.

2. The body perception sucks, but it keeps me working and never being satisfied. Thats why I never have a finish line and I keep going.

3. The time I spend with Nasim is so cherished. I just watch him in amazement, seeing him grow and see his personality show. That's the biggest motivating factor — to show him the best and have all the time to help him reach his goals.

4. What I learned is that I'm consistent to what's fun, so learning the fun way to do things is a challenge but its worth it.

5. Yeah being safe with money sucks, but it makes me triple think my decisions for my family instead of being a dumbass.

Relief

(Hook)

Everybody thinks debt makes you bad with money. Once I clear my embarrassing debt I know I'll be ready to be insanely rich.

(Visual Concept)

Money laid out in the shop, and someone takes all of it away from me. I'm left with nothing, and you can see it on my face — damn, now I have no money.

(Voiceover)

Let's say I got blessed with a million dollars right now. If I didn't know how to manage it, it'd be gone in a month. That's what this debt is teaching me. Paying it off is prepping me to keep my money when I'm rich. And I know I'm gonna be insanely rich, so I'm not even stressing about it.

(Visual Concept)

I shrug it off and just go to work — cut after cut, getting paid transaction after transaction. I walk into the shop looking sad, then walk out seeing how much I made. Close shots of me separating the money into piles.

(Voiceover)

This situation isn't here to keep you down. It's here to make you better, so when your opportunity comes, you're ready for it. If you got insane debt too, comment DEBT. Learn from it, don't sit in it.
