“I can’t stick with my budget!” 

When I hear this, I don’t ask about their numbers. I ask about their “Why”.

I may ask something like “Why does sticking to a budget matter to you?” Sure, We will talk about the surface-level answers, but I believe there is a deeper reason that has the potential to get them laser focused and motivated. I call it their “Why” or their “True North”. 🌟

When things get overwhelming and everything feels out of control, tapping into what is most important  can bring us back to center and help us take the next best step forward. It’s like having a compass that guides us through the stormy seas of financial challenges.💪

Discovering your Why

Discovering your Why is a powerful exercise that can transform your relationship with money. It’s not just about the numbers on a spreadsheet; it’s about understanding your values, dreams, and aspirations. 🌈

So, how do you find your Why? Start by asking yourself some thought-provoking questions. 🤔

• What are your financial goals?
• What do you want to achieve in life?
• How would financial freedom impact your life and the lives of your loved ones?

Dig deep and explore the emotions behind your answers. Maybe you want to provide a better future for your children, or perhaps you dream of traveling the world and experiencing new cultures. Whatever it may be, connecting with your “Why” will give you the motivation and determination to stick with your budget, even when it gets tough. 💪 Especially when it gets tough. 💪

Stay Motivated!

Once you’ve identified your “Why” write it down and keep it somewhere visible. It could be a sticky note on your computer, a reminder on your phone, or a vision board in your office. Surround yourself with visual reminders of your “Why” to stay focused and motivated.

Remember, sticking to a budget is not always easy, but when you have a strong “Why” it becomes a powerful tool in your financial journey. It’s the driving force that keeps you on track and helps you make intentional choices that align with your goals and values.

So, the next time you find yourself struggling to stick with your budget, take a moment to reflect on your “Why”. Reconnect with your “True North” and let it guide you towards financial success and fulfillment. You’ve got this! 💪💰
