MINDSET, MONEY AND FREEDOM

3 Things to Change Your Life…

by Brendan Chaplin

Hey friend,

This week I want to share some thoughts that have been front of mind for me — about mindset, about wealth, and about what freedom really looks like in practice.

I hope you’re enjoying this newsletter as much as I enjoy writing it. Got some ideas about changes in the coming weeks that will help you even more. Stay tuned!

Let’s get into it.

MINDSET : ANXIETY AND THE SPACE YOU GIVE IT

Anxiety fills the space you give it.

And what’s fascinating is that it tends to manifest at the level you’re at.

If your health is suffering, anxiety will centre entirely on getting well.
If your security or finances are under threat, that’s where the worry will go.

It’s a bit like the hierarchy of needs. Health. Wealth. Security. Each one will take over your thinking when it’s in danger.

And this isn’t weakness — it’s human. It’s what psychology calls normal anxiety.

So what’s the antidote?

Contribution. Busyness. Creative projects. Purpose.

When you engage your mind in work that matters to you, anxiety shrinks. It doesn’t disappear, but you crowd it out.

So the question is: what are you focused on right now that’s bigger than the worry?

The more purposeful the project, the smaller the anxiety.

MONEY: PESSIMISTS SOUND SMART, OPTIMISTS MAKE MONEY

When I was younger, I remember hearing adults and mentors — well-meaning people — explain to me why my ideas wouldn’t work.

They didn’t say it directly, but the message was clear: you’re dreaming. No one else has done that. That won’t work. Play it safe.

And for a while I listened.

But as I started pushing my own boundaries, as I started trying things, I saw the truth — those voices weren’t smarter than me. They were just more fearful.

Risk-averse. Negatively geared. Always seeing a problem for every solution.

And here’s the kicker: they weren’t the ones making money. The people who were winning were the ones who dared to try.

So be the optimist.

Steve Jobs had it right: the people who think they can change the world are usually the ones who do.

FREEDOM: BY DESIGN

It’s been hot here in Spain this week — the kind of heat that shapes your day.

Mornings are golden. Afternoons are for shade and swimming with the kids. Evenings are beautiful.

What’s struck me is this: I’ve been able to design my life so my work fits around my priorities. I can take my kids to breakfast, see them after school, head to the beach, adjust my day when I need to.

That’s freedom.

It took longer than I thought to get here. It took courage and sacrifice. But it was worth every step.

So here’s my message to you: What does your blueprint for freedom look like? And what’s one decision you could make this week to start building it?

See you next week.
