Lesson 3.3: Owning Your Vision of the Future, with Jon Marro

“Knowing what you want is the ultimate life skill. It is worth more than talent or hard work. It is almost worth as much as luck. Have it, and disappointment is still probable, but on your own terms. Lack it, and you will be done to and acted upon.” Financial Times writer Janan Ganesh In this episode, artist and FF alumni Jon Marro talks about the importance of imagination and vision of the person you want to become in personal finance. The desire to live to our full potential, to develop into our full selves creates the energy needed to enact the habits, attitudes, and behaviors of personal finance. When you gain financial freedom, you have the opportunity to be the best, most energetic, loving, and generous version of You that you can possibly be. Claiming that vision of yourself, and believing that it is possible, is the first step. “The future is in your mouth. You have to articulate the future before you can live it… Our job is to create a life worth of our breath.” - Ocean Vuong
