The most common money problem I hear
I am bad with spending.
First, avoid making negative I AM statements. Anything with I AM becomes your identity. If you identify as being a bad spender then your behavior will continue to support you in this claim which is not what you want. Try these statements instead, “Sometimes I spend money on things I don’t need.” “I feel frustrated with my spending because my bank account is always empty.” “I overdrew my bank account for the 2nd time this month which feels overwhelming.” Use FEELS instead of I AM.
Let’s talk about how you can turn your spending around.
There are a lot of tips and tricks. Instead of sending you everything at once, I am going to release them to you in small chunks over several weeks. This way you have time to implement and try it out without feeling overwhelmed.
#1: Dream for something bigger
It is hard to curb your spending if you do not have something driving you to do something different. Why forgo lunch? Why skip an outing with friends? Why not buy the clothes online when you are bored? Instead of approaching your spending from deprivation, let’s look at your dreams to see how they can motivate you to change your spending behavior.
Steps to follow:
1. I want you to dream for a minute. Dive into your soul and write down all the things you wish you had money for.
2. Pick the top 3 goals you would love to achieve in the next year.
3. Do some research and figure out how much money you would need to achieve these goals.
4. Visit my past blog post and figure out how much you would need to save each month to make this goal your reality.
