an investment in yourself pays the best dividends but how many people really understand how to do that well that's exactly why we made this video to help you out this is our own list of clear ways to invest in yourself if you want to really change your life for the better welcome to alux the place where future billionaires come to get inspired all right starting off at number one read for growth honestly the most accessible thing to do for long-term growth and investment in yourself is to learn how to read for growth people often don't read books these days because their teachers force them to read boring books and they got graded on them there's now an association between reading and homework and truth be told we all dreaded having to do the homework right schools actually made you hate the most valuable self-investment tool out there so the best strategy to pick up a reading habit is to read what you love until you love to read reading is and always will be a superior form of personal growth you can watch a thousand Tik toks about a topic and it'll never come close to reading a good book number two talk to people find a mentor talk to people okay a lot of people from different backgrounds and ideologies the more you expose yourself to different types of thinking the more you get to understand the world around you more often than not people live in what we call ideological bubbles you go out with the people who are very similar to you they live near you they consume the same content you do they think the same way you do they vote the same way you do basically creating an echo chamber where your ideas get redirected right back at you the problem is that growth happens only when you expose yourself to New Concepts growth happens when you either assimilate Newfound knowledge or the old knowledge gets replaced by better stuff never be arrogant enough to think you know everything okay in your quest to talk to interesting people some will become guiding lights for your future pick one of them to become your Mentor if you're looking to invest in yourself finding a mentor that's open to guiding you through life is one of the best investments you could ever make number three make friends your friends and network are your own personal and professional safety net your net worth is is directly correlated to your network the higher the quality of your connections the wealthier you are in life outside of professional and financial reasons to network what kind of life is it where you get to go through all of it without sharing it with the people you care about other people's happiness becomes your happiness and the person who doesn't have friends lacks a big piece of the puzzle that we call Life invest in quality friendships sometimes this will mean time others it'll mean investing money or even resources keeping those friendships alive requires work if your friendships faded away it's because neither of you made it a priority to invest in that friendship and you know what both parties are worse off because of it number four travel far this point expands on the previous two ones in our experience the farther you go the more your understanding of the world changes in the best possible way 10 hours away by plane and the entire way people look at life changes Karma comes into play or maybe a different type of education customs and traditions the further you travel the less self-centered you become you realize there's an entire world out there that's been going on forever without knowing or caring about your existence and that moment of realization is quite a big milestone in one's journey travel is one of those very few things that when you spend money on it it makes you richer so Embrace travel make it a priority to see hard to- reach places don't be a tourist be a traveler you'll never learn about the country you visit in a Starbucks or a McDonald's embrace the culture and allow it to shape your identity and you will be richer because of it number five take courses to build skills the best investment that someone could make in themselves is to acquire new skills in their life skills are like upgrades to the quality of the potential outcomes you can achieve they're like valuable tools that you can put to work and the best thing about learning new skills is that nobody can take them away from you once you learn how to do them they're with you forever some skills you acquire naturally as you grow through life in various forms you might have the skill to effectively communicate with people which gives you a huge leverage into expanding your network but you might lack other skills like how to make clear and practical objectives for yourself your life is cheap because you think
