No Buy Year Financial Boundaries

now the year of financial boundaries is going to be mainly about how to control your finances personal money management keep in mind I am not a personal adviser do what you want with your money okay I like stuff I like nice stuff as I've said before but I don't like clutter and I've never been the shopaholic type of person but I didn't realize there are people who are really shopaholics and that is an addiction there are a lot of people who literally dive into addiction without them even having the addiction but because they're watch somebody unbeknown to them having that addiction they gradually go into it themselves right so I see a lot of comments or I hear a lot of people are like oh yeah I have so much makeup and I'm not even a YouTuber I'm not even a you know somebody who wears these clothes often and that is because we sit and watch other people with their addiction not knowing that they have an addiction we're over here thinking maybe they just really love love clothes maybe they just really love makeup maybe they just really love cars but without us even realizing it's an actual addiction so we literally just put somebody else addiction onto US falsely isn't that crazy so for this year of financial boundaries we're going to cut off this false notion of addiction shopping addition we're going to really be on fire when it comes to keeping money in our pocket we're going to be more in tune with where our money goes and we're going to have more confidence in being the CFO of our own wallets we're not going to let anybody else to DET take how we want to spend when we want to spend why we want to spend we are the ones who should be able to control that ourselves and this is what this creating a financial boundary series is about it's not about stop shopping entirely absolutely not shopping because it's intentional because we need the item because at the end of the day this world and economy revolves around trading and trading either it's for money or is for goods this is what this year of financial boundary is not it is not a Crackdown on consumerism it's not a bashing of what people buy we all can still buy whatever we want whatever our heart desires because at the end of the day we're only on this Earth for a limited amount of time so yes buy what you want because at the end of the day you cannot buy it anywhere else but at the same time do not Buckle at your knees to allow either corporate manipulation or somebody else's shopping addict to make you want to go spend money that you really didn't want to spend it's about having an emotionally strong relationship when it comes to your money and your finances and eliminate any toxic trait that you have occurred over time now I know this going to be hard for y'all but the year of financial boundary it's going to be a whole lot of nose being said unfortunately it's going to be nose to some stores that you probably shouldn't even be spending your money at or third party platforms Amazon this is the time for you to sit and evaluate is it really value to do your research to do some digging to realize do I need this to improve my life or is it just something I want to do because I see everybody else is the marketing so engaging to where I'm just very curious and I want to spend thousands of dollars I really want you to analyze the reasons you are spending your money this going to be hard but it's going to be a whole lot of no to some family or friends that is going to be a a video for another day on its own once again I want to elaborate on this because I know some people are probably going to let this fly over their head this is to practice self-control it is not to say no to shopping at all because at the end of the day that's not a thing you cannot not shop we do not manufacture our own anything so let's be realistic about this and let's go in as adults let's go in with a clear mind to where it's like I'm here to rewire my relationship with spending I'm not here to condemn or put down anybody's spending cuz I don't care what y spend your money on I just want y'all to spend it responsibly honestly at the end of the day shopping is not new Tik Tok did not create shopping Amazon didn't create shopping none of these major platforms created shopping shopping has always been here from the beginning of time it's about your relationship and how you control your shopping habits you need to learn to not rely on shopping for boredom for um retail therapy for loneliness to begin let's start by setting little goals so I'm only asking for two things from y'all only two little things that's it one do the homework that means once you watch this video actually apply it to your life don't just watch it and forget it if you need to write notes down write notes down if you need to pin it on a wall somewhere pin it on a wall if you need to you know listen to it again watch this video again then do that it's totally fine but I need you to do the work a lot of times we have all of these information at the tip of our fingers but yet we do not do anything in order for our life to progress we just keep on listening to it and then move on act like we never heard it before which is that diabolical because how in word are you going to improve your life in anything if you do not actually put actions behind it so definitely do your homework put actions to it and don't just listen just to listen and two have endurance I know in the beginning of the year is going to be very easy for us to listen to all these motivational speakings and all of these inspirational thoughts because it's a new year but it's not about how you start it's about the journey throughout because you could start really strong but if you do not have the endurance to keep on running and keep on pushing throughout the entire 12 months then at the end you're going to literally be in the same spot or maybe you wouldn't even you'll be even worse position cuz there's no way if you continuously go through a journey of something that you do not see the results at the end for example if you are trying to lose weight most definitely you are going to start off strong go to the gym the first two months maybe the first quarter but if you do not continuously go to the gym and eat right at the same time all 12 months you will not see any results at all so that's the same way when it comes to applying your finances if you are starting off strong say yes I'm going to do a no buy yes I'm going to you know reduce my spending and all of that but throughout the year you're you're gradually increasing your spending you're gradually not budgeting you're gradually just not remembering to do anything that you initially planned out to do in the beginning it all defeats the purpose so those are the only two things I asked for you guys and I will feel so much better I know my speaking will not be in vain all right guys that is all I have for this video I hope you guys join into this year of financial boundaries because we all need some type of boundaries in our life
