Teacher On TikTok Became Financially Free At 33 With $1 Million Saved — Reveals Book That Taught Him The 'Wealth Mindset'

At some point in your life, you've probably thought about retiring early. Then, you soon realized one thing: You don't earn enough or save enough to turn this dream into reality. 

But there's something you're forgetting. Retiring early isn't all about how much you earn and save. A big part of it is getting into the right mindset. 

Don't Miss:

• The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement. How do you compare?
• Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved? The percentage may shock you.

TikTok user Call to Leap recently shared a video explaining the four things he did to grow his net worth as a former public school teacher. These steps allowed him to become financially free at 33 with $1 million in savings.

• Because of a low salary, he taught himself to live below his means. 
• He increased his income by tutoring on the side.
• He worked on his wealth mindset.
• He invested his money. 

Simple enough, right? On the surface, yes, but you've got to dig deeper if you want to take control of your wealth. And that's why you have to work on your wealth mindset.

Call to Leap explained that one book helped him transform how he thinks about money: "Secrets of the Millionaire Mind: Mastering the Inner Game of Wealth" by T. Harv Eker.

This book dives into the idea of your “money blueprint,” a subconscious program formed in your childhood that can unknowingly hold you back from financial success. 

Eker argues that achieving financial freedom isn’t just about external strategies like budgeting or investing; it’s about rewiring your core beliefs about money.

You’ll also discover how to replace thoughts of scarcity with abundance and develop the unshakeable confidence needed to achieve your financial goals.

Eker doesn’t just inspire; he equips you with actionable steps to transform your financial blueprint. 

It shows you how to take ownership of your financial reality, set powerful goals that excite you and develop the essential money management skills you need to achieve them. 

Becoming financially free, regardless of age, is about mindset and having a road map to reaching your goals. "Secrets of the Millionaire Mind" has the potential to overhaul the way you think about your money and future.
