DO YOU HAVE BIG DREAMS AND BIG PLANS, BUT LACK THE RESOURCES TO PURSUE THEM? DO YOU FIND YOURSELF SAYING IF ONLY I HAD THE MONEY...? ARE YOU TOO EMBARRASSED TO ASK OTHERS FOR HELP?

In her best-selling book Daring & Disruptive and its sequel Life & Love, serial entrepreneur Lisa Messenger shared the business insights gathered in more than a decade of success across multiple industries, including how to identify your true purpose, pinpoint your passions and create the working life most only dream of. But, lets be honest, you need the means to make it all happen.

In her latest book, she tackles a topic with a stigma - money! What would you do if money was no object, how can anyone find profit in the impossible and - her personal bugbear - when will gunnas stop using lack of money as an excuse for not stepping out of their comfort zone and pursuing their purpose?

Mixing advice from mentors, experts and famous role models, with lessons learned in her own entrepreneurial journey, Lisa reveals how she built a global brand, and launched a magazine sold in 37 countries, without having to borrow a single cent from a bank.

This is from a woman who, years before, could barely afford to buy toothpaste.

In the self-deprecating manner that has become her trademark style, Lisa shares her own journey, clearly stating she is not a guru when it comes to finances, but has used fresh thinking and creative ideas to fuel a burgeoning business.

She will help you appreciate your real value, amplify your self-worth and find the means to achieve everything you dream of.

Many of us are raised to believe its rude to talk about money.

But as a self-proclaimed disruptor, this entrepreneur wants to put a bomb in the bank vault and blow it wide open...

I couldnt care less about money. You probably werent expecting that opening line, but in all honesty, its the truth I couldnt care less about money for moneys sake. I do, however, care about money for a host of other reasons. I dont want or need big, fancy things nor have I ever craved a super-duper, overflowing bank account. BUT, and its a very big but, I have discovered that money buys you freedom, choice and, more often than not, a platform to make a difference in the world. For me personally, money is a means to fill my life with positive experiences and to extend that positivity to people I love and the inspiring community growing around myself and The Collective.

So, with that in mind, Im here to say its okay to allow money to be a driving force in your life. And, that I now LOVE the potential power of money in all of our lives. Oh my goodness I do! Did I really just say that? Yes, I did. I love money, not because I dream of having a driveway full of fast cars and a closet full of designer outfits (I am stuffocating at the very thought of it) but because the moment I stopped seeing money as the root of all evil and saw it as a fuel of fulfilment, everything changed for me and I believe it can for you too. With it, you and I have the means to make a massive, life-altering, kick-arse difference in the world and that is one thing I wont budge on. I want to live a life of worth and of significance and I have discovered that money is a key ingredient in having the opportunities, choice and means to achieve that dream.

This is why Im now an unapologetic oversharer when it comes to money and why, over the next few chapters, I will talk with raw honesty about my journey. Ill talk figures: like my plan to have revenue of AU$50 million in the next two years. Ill talk mistakes: we once printed the wrong date in a book that cost us AU$10,000 and a staff member and I had to sort it out over Christmas while I had the worst food poisoning of my life. Ill talk about learned strategies: finding money in places it apparently doesnt exist (loans, crowdfunding and venture capital are not routes I have taken, but I have found money in unlikely places through partnerships and sponsorship). And, more importantly, Ill talk about how our money mindsets and attitudes can affect our chances of succeeding.

I actually failed accounting (dismally) during my first attempt at university. I had to break up with my accountant for four months when I launched TheCollective and have, without a doubt, made my share of monetary mistakes, although none were fatal. I certainly wasnt a numbers girl in the beginning, nor do I spruik that as my best asset today. But, what I have been able to do is keep my business, run across multiple industries, in the black through the rocky seasons and on the tough financial days. Fourteen years from its start, my latest and most successful business venture Collective Hub includes a print magazine sold in more than 37 countries and over 3500 newsagents in Australia alone. I employ a staff of roughly 20 and a team of over 70 freelance creatives, and my personal favourite I have holidayed on Necker Island with Sir Richard Branson. Collective Hub has led to brand extensions, including products, books, paid speaking events and consultancy meetings. I have achieved my business success (because I am certainly not there yet) with absolutely no outside investment or equity partners, other than some broad-minded thinking that led to sponsorship and advertising deals, and at the time of writing, every cent channelled into this business has been my own.

Im guessing you picked up this book because you want more money in your life, youd like to overcome your business cashflow woes, you want to attract funding to your idea or perhaps youd like to look at money from a different angle. I am so glad you did, because it means you arent planning on being a gunna. At every event or every speaking gig I attend, I always meet at least one person who falls into a category that I call the gunnas. These are the people who have huge dreams, wonderful visions, extraordinary potential and genuinely with all their hearts want to follow in the footsteps of entrepreneurs they admire. However, they are full of excuses about why its not within their reach: Im unsure where to start, I wish I was confident like you or this one, But its okay for you, you probably come from a wealthy background. I always laugh when people say that because 14 years ago, when I began my first start-up, even the term shoestring was exaggerating my resources. My finances were more comparable to dental floss. I could have been a gunna quite easily, making every justification not to follow my purpose because I didnt (at that point) have the means available at all. Instead, I decided to look at money differently, bring some fresh ideas to the table and try new things to succeed. I truly believe my naivety has worked to my advantage in a sense, because Ive had to follow my intuition, trust my gut, learn to think outside the norm, challenge the status quo and find imaginative and unusual ways to build a castle from rubble. I believe I have discovered a personal formula for finding profit in the unprofitable, for stretching my means to pursue my dreams, and for living the fullest version of my life.
