Tuesday Talk: Money and Mental Gym

Tuesday Talk: Money and Mental Gym

The Most Important Part of Focus is Your Mindset

If you want to build your own money and mental gym, here’s the essential equipment you need. Building both doesn’t require special items or technology, even though they can help. The basics will put you in the best shape of your life, mentally and financially, if you practice them consistently. According to the habit loop, some habits are more difficult to pick up than others. The researchers from the University College London found that it takes at least 66 days for “automaticity” to kick in. Now, let’s break down the items you need:

Your Financial Gym

1. Pad, Pen, and Your Thoughts:

  • Write down all your income and expenses.
  • Ask yourself why you spend how you do and identify the financial and emotional triggers behind each expense.

Your Mental Gym

1. Pad or Journal:

  • Document all your thoughts.
  • Could you keep track of your sleep patterns, energy levels, and daily activities?

Spend between 20 minutes and 2 hours each day working on yourself. This time is crucial for reflecting on your financial decisions and mental well-being.

Building Habits

Consistency is Key:

  • It takes 66 days to form a habit. Stick with your routines, and you’ll see improvements in your financial and mental health.

Before You Leave Your Mental and Financial Gym

Self-Reflection:

  • Look in the mirror until you love what you see in your mind, body, and bank account.

Let's Workout

If you don’t have your summer body yet, it’s not too late. By implementing these practices, you can change the climate and season of your life. Your winter body can become your forever body, and you can visit places where everyone loves your summer body. Meanwhile, others who haven’t visited their mental and money gym will continue to struggle with the cold weather of life.

Embrace these practices and transform your life. The journey to financial and mental fitness starts with your mindset and the simple tools you already have at your disposal. So, let’s work out and make every season a season of growth and self-love.

Let's go to the gym of life and build a beautiful life. 240-508-2169

Love this breakdown on building our mental and financial strength—super practical and straightforward. The idea of a "money and mental gym" really clicks with me, and I'm excited to start journaling my spending and moods to see where I can improve. Thanks for the nudge towards better habits! Quick question: any tips on staying motivated during those first 66 days of habit formation?
