So many people I have worked with say the same thing. As soon as you know what money you are spending, you can’t help but be more intentional with it.
If you limit your spending to $200 per week, then you are going to be more careful of what you choose to spend your money on.
If you have $2000 in your bank account, it’s hard to spend just $200. It won’t matter to spend an extra $5 here or $20 there. And before you know it, you are back to $0 in your account again.
Sigh.
When you know, you can make an informed decision.
If you don’t know, your money just leaks away like a tap with a drip.
Take the chance to review your spending for the next week. Don’t change habits – just look at what you are spending. Are you happy with that, or do you want to make changes?
As a money coach, it’s not up to me to tell you what to do with your money. I’m here to show you a framework that will help you decide what you would rather spend your money on, and put actions into place so that you can remind yourself every day why you are doing it.
Tracking is a part of this, so that you put boundaries around some of your spending, so that you can be intentional.
