Transcript

Before you buy anything, ask yourself an honest question. If no one ever saw that item, would you still want it? Be very honest with the answer. Even if you would never admit it out loud to someone else, be willing to admit that to yourself. Because if that is the case, you're shopping for external validation. Meaning that you're allowing other people to control your money. And unfortunately, how your financial life, things are not gonna end well for you. If you have goals, if you're trying to stop living paycheck to paycheck, if you're trying to build your savings, you're trying to get out of debt, external validation, it's always gonna knock you down. Get into a routine of buying something because it's something that you either need, that you've planned for, and something that makes sense in your life. Because when you get into this habit of shopping for other people, this is how you end up broke and this is how you end up with a bunch of stuff that you don't need. Now know who needs to hear this, but if the people around you, you make you feel as if you can only buy certain things, you can only spend a certain amount of money on stuff, they're probably not the people you need in your life.
