SHIFTING FINANCIAL PARADIGMS
One of the best ways to succeed in whatever we do is to learn from those who know more than we do about our given area of interest, and who have achieved more than we have in whatever area we’re seeking growth.
I’m super optimistic about the world these days.
I’m optimistic, primarily because I do not tune into the media of negativism and fear. Instead, I tune into interesting people who are living extraordinary lives, and I learn from them daily.
There are thousands of inspiring people of all ages, in new creative endeavors. I get especially excited seeing baby boomers embarking on new adventures as they work to reinvent themselves during their second half of life, and there are more opportunities today to become your own boss and live the life of your dreams than ever before.
Many of the most inspiring people I consider my teachers and mentors are Generation X and Y entrepreneurs, such as Patrick Donohoe—a Gen X-er. These are the 25-45-something year olds who are changing paradigms, working outside the box and thinking expansively from an impressive innate wisdom.
Patrick Donohoe is one such on a mission to empower people with financial education so they can make better choices and have the freedom which comes from greater financial wealth.
Communication between the generations is paramount. Patrick Donohoe
What’s so cool about today, more than any other time in history, is that we can all learn from each other. The elders are no longer just the “keepers of wisdom”, and in my experience, when we allow ourselves to learn from each other as contributing, productive human beings, no matter the age, we’re all better of.

It’s always good to consider multiple opinions and multiple perspectives. Patrick Donohoe
Patrick Donohoe: If you just have one perspective on something, you’re taking a gamble as to whether it’s right or wrong for you. So it’s good that there’s a lot of critics. It’s the stages that truth goes through, where it’s not just accepted as truth, but it goes through a rebuke and goes through some criticism. If you address something rationally… it gives people a chance to evaluate and decide.
