Before it’s even deposited into your account, you subtract your car, your home, your credit cards, and other bills out of the paycheck before the cash is even in!!
It sounds pretty unnerving doesn’t it?
Living this way will add stress to your life and put you into a pattern of bad thought and behavior.
Imagine this second scenario:
It’s Friday and you have received your paycheck. But before you even get to look at it, a portion of it has been allocated into a savings account. Now you can pay all your bills and you feel a little lighter, have a more peaceful mind, because you know in the back of your head you are doing something right.
This is the power of paying yourself first. You do something right, before doing anything else and you didn’t even have to budge.
