Become Fearless
By Jean-Luc Tahou, MBA, CFP

Over the years, I have realized that most people know that they need to get a better handle on their finances but most don’t make the necessary changes.  Why is that, you ask?  Mainly because of fear:  fear of the unknown, of the unfamiliar, and fear of making mistakes.  In some cases these fears are justified but the reality is that they usually aren’t.  The truth is that we are creatures of habit and we eschew getting outside our comfort zone at all cost, but it is when we force ourselves to challenge our boundaries that we make significant progress.
