"The truth hurts." We've all said it to someone; we’ve likely even said it to ourselves at one time or another. But because the truth does hurt, we tend to distort between what’s real and what we think. We all know for a fact that we need money to survive, yet we still tend to have bad feelings surrounding it. It’s exhausting always feeling torn between these two extremes.
Have you ever noticed that the more you need money, and the tighter your budget, the more you tend to obsess about money?
Well, now it's time to view money in a way where it's welcomed into our bank accounts.
Let's keep moving forward here with more honest discovery about ourselves.
