I’m lying here in bed feeling sorry for myself.

My bedside table engulfed with vicks, throat lozenges and remnants of ginger & lemon tea.

After you’ve met your sleep quota for the rest of the year, there’s not much else to do but twiddle your thumbs – and shop online.

I’ll admit it, online shopping is my guilty pleasure when bed ridden.

Today things got pretty heated  – between choking up a lung & spreading mucous everywhere – when I couldn’t decide whether to get the boho swing dress or the aztec culottes.

Why the hell couldn’t I just have both!?

Simple: My personal spending comfort zone

See, the thing is. No matter how hard you work at busting through your money blocks, you’re always going to hit another limit you’ve got to work through.

When I find myself hitting that wall, one thing I do is remind myself why I want to smash through it in the first place.

I do that by reaffirming why I want to be rich.

Why I Want To Be Rich

  • Give my Mum an extremely comfortable retirement
  • Live a laid back luxurious lifestyle
  • Spend more quality time with family and friends
  • Help people to bring more money into their lives
  • Start doing philanthropic work

Why Do You Want To Be Rich?

Do you want to live a luxurious lifestyle? Maybe spend a year traveling through Europe? Do you want to help the world with your skills? Go hiking in the mountains? Maybe you’re craving more time with your kids, or just to be able to take an hour out of the day to relax.
