For years, I played by the conventional rules. Work hard. Save a little. Maybe, one day, I’d have enough to buy a house - or breathe. Spoiler alert: That day never came. Not because I wasn’t capable. Not because I wasn’t smart enough. But because I let my lack of confidence keep me playing small. I told myself passive income was for other people. Investors. Risk-takers. People who knew what they were doing. So, I kept trading my time for money. Working instead of building. Earning instead of owning. And where did that get me? Stressed. Exhausted. Stuck. FOR 9(!) Years! The lesson is this: Confidence isn’t what makes you successful. Taking action is. The second I stopped waiting to “feel ready” and started owning my financial future? Everything changed in only two months. ✅I traded a soul-sucking job for a really lovely one ✅I moves to Scotland (a long-time dream) ✅I started to spend more time with the people I loved ✅I gave myself more experiences that I want to have ✅I created a 4-figure passive income stream (after 15 years of thinking about it) I realised that if I didn't take any action and didn't put myself out there, I would never be able to change anything.

I used to ask myself that question all the time. From the moment I started my career in 2013, I kept thinking about how one bad decision could end my path. So I started working harder. The voice in my head was unforgiving, relentless and unkind: What if you can’t keep this up? What if everything you’ve worked for disappears overnight? What if you wake up one day and it’s all gone? What will PEOPLE say? That fear kept me stuck for years—grinding, overworking, afraid to take my foot off the gas in case everything crashed around me. Between 2019 and 2021 I worked an estimated 7 months' worth of extra time on top of my 35 hour per week contract. That's 1,029 hours of my life I am never getting back! I survived solely on take-away food, had no free time, no joy in life and the money I earned felt worthless because I was ill with stress and anxiety ALL THE TIME! It cost me: 💔 My marriage 💔 My sanity 💔 My joy 💔 My confidence Between 2021 and 2025 I started (and closed) two businesses continuing to hustle my way from day to day and feeling like a failure every day. But then I realised something: I was thinking like a worker, not an owner. Workers depend on someone else. A paycheck. A client. A job that could vanish at any moment. Owners? They build. And once you learn how to build something of VALUE? You’re never afraid of losing again. Because if you can build it once, you can build it again. That’s the difference between 'fake it till you make it' and true confidence. Let's stop hustling to keep everything the same. As ChangeMakers we know that no matter what happens, we'll always know how to create something new on our terms! Will you own your future and create something of value or will you work to maintain your present?

Let’s get one thing straight: the version of you that exists today is not the final draft. You are not obligated to be the same person you were yesterday, last year, or even ten minutes ago. Society loves to tell us that reinvention is reserved for the young—the fresh-out-of-college dreamers, the ambitious twenty-somethings, the start-up founders who somehow just knew their path from day one. But what about the rest of us? What about the person who wakes up one day, stares at their life, and thinks: This isn’t it. This isn’t who I want to be. Here’s an idea no one talks about: You can hit CTRL+ALT+DELETE on your life whenever you damn well please. 📢 And you don’t need permission. 💎STEP 1: Burn the Old Rulebook Reinvention starts with questioning the scripts you’ve been following. Whose rules are you living by? Your parents? Society’s? That one teacher who told you at 16 that you’d never make it? Most of us are walking around playing a role we never consciously chose. We inherit expectations—what success looks like, what’s "realistic," what’s "too late"—and then we make decisions based on a rulebook we didn’t even write. Burn it. Shred it. Throw it in the ocean. Because the people who reinvent themselves? They stop asking, Is this possible? and start asking, What if I stopped giving a damn about the limits other people put on me? 💎STEP 2: Drop the Identity That’s Keeping You Small Reinvention isn’t just about changing what you DO—it’s about changing who you ARE. If you keep calling yourself “shy,” you’ll avoid the opportunities that require boldness. If you keep saying, “I’m not the kind of person who takes risks,” guess what? You will be right! The labels you cling to are either your prison or your launchpad. Choose wisely. Want to be more confident? Act like someone who is. Want to be a writer? Write. Want to be the kind of person who actually likes themselves? Start treating yourself like someone worth respecting. 💎STEP 3: Get Comfortable With Discomfort
