Notable Quotes

• If the company you keep spends time lamenting about their finances, pointing fingers at their boss, and blaming external factors for their lack of money, it's a sign that they don't have a wealth-building mindset. Hanging around such people won't help you develop the habits and mindset necessary to build your own wealth.
• You need to shift your thinking from short-term to long-term to achieve your financial goals. Stop thinking in terms of day-to-day or month-to-month expenses, and start thinking about what you really want in life. When you have a clear goal, you'll be motivated to make the necessary changes to achieve it.
• Money mapping is effective because it's integrated into your daily finances. It's automated, so the money you allocate to specific goals goes directly into the designated account. This ensures that you always make decisions from a higher, more intentional perspective.
• Money dates are great! They help me stay on track with my financial goals and maintain a consistent connection with my finances. Quarterly dates give me a manageable chunk of time to focus on where I want my money to go and what I want to achieve in the next three months.
