In today's episode titled "How to Homestead" I'm going to share my experience thus far with doing so, pulling from a few different blog posts after a quick search for "how to homestead."
You can follow along by going down your own wormholes by searching for "how to homestead" in your own internet search browser of choice - while listening in today!
In yesterday's show, we asked ourselves "What is a Homestead?" After talking about that, Rob drilled it down to three core concepts that lead to the idea of self-sufficiency:
- Relationships / Family
- Land
- Cultivation
If anything - a homestead becomes a mindset. Which leads to the next question:
- How do you do it?
That's what today's episode is all about!
Rob is realizing that a focus on the homestead and other aspects of life brings him joy and peace when he has trouble finding that in other aspects of his life...and references the 2022 Goal Setting Workbook by Dan Miller - a great tool for finding balance in life.
This episode is almost a culmination of 15 years of thought after the idea of "homesteading" first entered his mind as a viable lifestyle option. Rob provides a bit of history regarding the land where he currently lives...the very same land that he encouraged his family to sell.
He's come full circle and now lives on the land he once resented and now looks to his family and the land as one of the few remaining things in life that brings him joy and peace in life.
As the dialogue continues - Rob realizes that many of the challenges in life come from a lack of forward thinking...and how forward thinking is a *requirement* when it comes to the growth and development of a homestead. Surround yourself with forward thinking people.
He also ties the discussion back into the Baby Steps of Financial Peace University - and firmly believes that freedom from debt and effective management of personal finances is the foundation to building not only the life...but the *homestead* of our dreams as well.
