Wax on, wax off

Hard work pushes you past obstacles.

Hello Financial Healers,

I watched The Karate Kid for the first time last week. I highly recommend it.

The best part about The Karate Kid is its message.

Although the main character is outnumbered by bullies, a wealthy elite, and a foreign, Southern California culture, he never gives up.

The Karate Kid cleans cars, paints fences, and works tirelessly to develop his skills.

There’s a part of him that refuses to surrender.

That’s the attitude I hope to demonstrate: perseverance.

Be like the Karate Kid

I know life isn’t a movie, but we can certainly learn from the Hero’s Journey.

Many of us are facing tough situations, especially in the realm of finances.

Maybe it’s debt? Economic uncertainty? Or health issues?

Whatever your issues, get alone with God. Ask Him to give you strength.

You can overcome any obstacle.

Wax on, wax off,
Cory De Silva
