#MondayMondays: "Do I want it, do I need it, can I afford it?"

Sometimes all it takes is a simple saying to get us to stop, reflect and take mindful action. In an environment where it has become common-place to impulse buy, combined with online shopping... mindless spending has become the norm and I'd like to address a simple saying I learned which helps to manage and mitigate unnecessary spending.

"Do I want it, do I need it, can I afford it?"

Embrace the power of self-awareness and responsible decision-making to lead a fulfilling life that is not dictated by material possessions. Remember, true happiness lies in experiences, relationships, personal growth and the freedom to pursue what truly matters. Signed, Filipina Budget Girl.
