Adulting: rescuing your$elf
Thank you!
It is a blessing to receive and it's a blessing to not have hang-ups about receiving, as receiving honors the giver. An individual better have a good reason to say no to a giver or person who wishes to bless you! In order to give, someone has to be willing to receive; to receive, someone has to give -not rocket-science. All that is good, but at some point we need to save ourselves financially. We have to come to our rescue. It begins with the word "me".
Men/friends as an income supplement:
Maybe your grandmother supplements your income? A husband, boyfriend, an aunt or any other person. Are you hoping someone will come along to assist because you don't have enough cash to live on after rent is paid (a credit card is not an income stream). It's amazing to have help and people who work and struggle for us, but what if we went to work with the idea that NOBODY IS COMING TO RESCUE US FINANCIALLY, NO ONE ELSE IS GOING TO SUPPLEMENT OUR INCOME. Would you do all you can to become all you can?
Working so we can spend (pay bills), give and save:
If you budget, aren't an over-spender, then why is it that you can't pay ALL the bills worry-free, give without cringing, and save joyfully? I don't know the answer. You might need to network/build relationships, get a life-coach, love yourself more and upgrade your vibe (vibration), set goals and achieve them, etc.
My idea is to "work" as if no specific person is coming to your financial rescue and hand you money, not anytime soon. GOD PROVIDES, yes. The UNIVERSE (I use God and Universe interchangeably) PROVIDES, yes. Surprises and gifts may come out of nowhere, but I'm suggesting you give YOUR WORK/INTERESTS/PASSIONS OR GIFTS your all...as if no specific person will ever come along to pay for your lunch. Work to have overflow, save and spend. Work to be the lender and not the borrower. Discover a reason to give it your all.
