5 Investments That Changed My Life Forever

These 5 investments changed my life forever.

The investments that I am going to talk about aren't the typical ones that you might think about.

I believe that success in life is achieved by making investment decisions in different areas of your life.

The more knowledge that you accumulate, the more opportunities you have to better yourself.

Investing in yourself will always yield the greatest returns. In the words of Warren Buffett, “The most important investment you can make is in yourself.”

You never lose when you invest in yourself.

Whether it's mastering a new skill, working with a coach, or learning a new skill, self-improvement is a superpower. You cannot serve others to the best of your ability if you don't do the work to show up for yourself. Investing in yourself sends a message to the world, which is this:

“The value and potential that I possess are important enough to me that I’m going to give it the energy, space, and time to grow and create results.” 

When you commit to bettering yourself, life rewards you with a world of opportunities. Not only that, but it allows you to become the best version of yourself which makes you a magnet for success. Here are 5 key investments that changed my life forever. 

1. Investing in Communication Skills

Improving my communication skills has been the most powerful investment I've ever made. It has positively benefitted every aspect of my life. My belief is shared by Warren Buffett, who is one of the greatest investors of all time.

When he was asked to share one piece of advice for 21- to 22-year-olds who just graduated, he said – “The one easy way to become worth 50 percent more than you are now — at least — is to hone your communication skills — both written and verbal.”

Warren Buffett used to be terrified of public speaking. In a previous interview, he expressed that if he wanted to reach his full potential, he knew that he had to overcome this fear.

As a result, he decided to attend a Dale Carnegie speaking class which would change the course of his entire life. I can relate to this. I used to be incredibly shy. My anxiety was so bad that I would isolate myself at home and avoid interacting with people at all costs. I had no confidence or social skills.

When I was 17 years old, I hit my emotional threshold and decided to change my life. I was committed to improving and mastering this area of my life. I joined Toastmasters and took public speaking classes every single week.

Speaking in front of a group of supportive people gave me confidence and taught me how to communicate effectively. Today, I feel so blessed to be in a position where I get to influence millions of people through my YouTube channel.

To date, my channel has over 60 million views. None of this would be possible if I didn't commit to investing so many hours into mastering my communication skills. 

2. Investing in Personal Development 

The hundreds of books that I've read, the endless podcasts that I've listened to, and the countless seminars, training programs, and events that I've invested in have contributed to my ever-growing skillset.

The thousands of hours and tens of thousands of dollars that I've invested into my personal development have contributed to my success in life. When it comes to specific people who have had the biggest impact on my life, Tony Robbins is at the top of my list.

I've attended Tony Robbins' seminars multiple times, whether it be Unleash the Power Within, Date with Destiny, Business Mastery, or his Leadership Academy training. He inspired me to build my brand, Project Life Mastery.

I've been blessed to have the opportunity to spend one-on-one time with Tony in Fiji and Las Vegas. He is the real deal. I encourage you to consume and devour as much knowledge as you can from him.

Another life-changing investment that I've made was taking part in neurofeedback training at the Biocybernaut Institute. At the institute, I had the opportunity to biohack 40 years of meditation in 7 days. Keep in mind that this was not a cheap event. The training packages start at $15,000.

The benefits that I received from that training have been far-reaching, some of which include an increase in my creativity, an increase in EQ, an increase in IQ, a calmer mind, and a heightened level of consciousness.

I have yet to find a training that is equivalent to what the Biocybernaut Institute provides.

Lastly, taking the plant-based medicine Ayahuasca, at the Soltara Healing Center, was an experience that I'll never forget. Ayahuasca allows you to tap into and explore your subconscious mind.

My experience with Ayahuasca was wild, mind-blowing, and life-transformative. The medicine helped me connect with and heal my past trauma. Since my experience, I've felt lighter, happier, and more at peace.

More importantly, I feel like a more conscious and purposeful version of myself. In my opinion, anything that you can do to improve who you are is a worthwhile investment.

3. Investing in My Health

As the saying goes, “Your health is your wealth.” A lot of people focus solely on work and building success but they forget about their physical bodies. I don't know about you, but I don't want to be the richest man in the graveyard.

If you have all the money in the world, but it's at the expense of your health, you'll have a limited experience of life. This is why I make my health a top priority. When I talk about health, I separate fitness from health.

Fitness is your capacity to have strength and endurance. There are a lot of people who are fit, but unhealthy. In my eyes, health is when every part of your body is optimized. I am hypervigilant about what I put inside of my body so that it can function at an optimal level.

I eat organic whole foods, take high-quality supplements daily, and I make a lot of investments into improving my gut and hormone health. By engaging in healthy habits on a consistent basis I am able to function at an optimal level of wellness.

A lot of the health conditions that exist today, whether it be cancer or heart disease, can be prevented if people would commit to changing their lifestyle. Kevin Trudeau is right when he said that, “Most people have no idea how good their body is designed to feel.” Everybody deserves the gift of good health. 

4. Investing to Start An Online Business 

By creating passive income and financial freedom, I have been able to accelerate growth in every other aspect of my life. Making more money has allowed me to create more opportunities. Keep in mind that I didn't have any business skills when I first started.

Rather, I learned everything through trial and error. I found mentors who had the success that I wanted, and I did what they said. I'm not going to lie… the first few years of building my online business were tough. I failed a lot, but I never gave up on my dreams because I had a strong why.

It's fair to say that I used my pain as motivation and kept taking massive action. It was through brute force that I was able to succeed. Throughout my entrepreneurial journey, I've had success with a lot of different business models, whether it be selling physical products on Amazon, coaching/consulting, affiliate marketing, or online courses.

Yes, I've been able to make a lot of money. However, more importantly, I've learned so many invaluable skills along the way. Once you build an online business to a certain point, making money becomes a lot easier.

If I wanted to make an extra one million per year, I can do so because I've built a strong foundation for my business. I have the skills, confidence, and abilities to do more. Nobody can ever take away what you've learned and who you've become. 

5. Investing in the Stock Market

When I was 18 years old, I made my first financial investment of $500 into a Bank of Montreal mutual fund. I started putting $25 per month into it so that the money would compound over time. 

As I started saving and making more money from my business, I realized that investing in stocks was the true path to financial freedom. You can create freedom from building a business. However, the problem with business is that, if you're not involved in it, your business may not stand the test of time. 

I've built up my investment portfolio to the point where I never have to work a day in my life again. This has been life-changing for me. I no longer do things because I have to do them. Rather, I do them because I choose to do them.

Investing in the stock market has given me time, freedom, and peace of mind. This will continue to be one of the most life-changing investments that I make, especially as I get older.

The two investments that I've made the most money from have been Tesla and Shopify. I've also done really well with the Vanguard index funds that I've invested in. I can confidently say that index funds are the best long-term strategy that I will never have to worry about.
