Worst investment ever

During the earlier years of her career, Harriet made some really poor investments in who she worked with and the content she consumed. Harriet invested thousands of dollars in several courses, programs, and coaches that didn’t quite align with her values. These investments just sat there waiting for her to take action, but she never did. They were just a waste of her money.

Lessons learned

  • Take more time to make decisions.
  • Be mindful when speaking to people.
  • Before you invest in something, ask yourself if you have the time to invest and take action.
  • Always consider the expected ROI.
  • If you don’t take action, you won’t see any results from your investment.

Andrew’s takeaways

  • Involve other people concerned when making a decision.
  • Make sure an investment is suitable for you.
  • Focus on the outcome of an investment, not its hype.

Actionable advice

Map out what you want to achieve, share that with the person you’re considering investing in, and get their feedback.
