Meeting with Bear Grylls of Man vs Wild

Bear Grylls is an inspirational guy – he climbed Everest at age 23, after having suffered a broken back 18 months earlier. He talked about his motivation to succeed and working harder than the next bloke….but above all else, preparedness. In short, he says that being prepared is the most important thing to give you confidence in the wild.

How similar this is to your financial situation! Being prepared – and having a plan – is the only way to ensure financial confidence. Your Financial Plan should set goals and rewards, but also cater for contingencies – “what if something goes wrong?” and “do we have a back-up plan if things don’t pan out that way?”

Above all, ask yourself how many successful people have got to where they are without the following key ingredients:

be prepared

– get support from a mentor

– plus a little hard work and motivation!
