It's my pleasure here once again to drop some hints, to meditate on through this new week for our financial happiness
From my own thoughts and observations, I can tell you that financial freedom to some people is a near impossible dreams,
But everyone can be financially stable,
Everyone can happy with the little or the much they have.
Because happiness comes from within, from the inputs and impacts we can make in life, from the people we associate with, how best we live within our reach, happiness doesn't come from how much we have, the luxuries we have or how famous we become - because there's more to life than money.
Financial freedom to me, is a state of being able to (apart from our financial needs), meet up with our financial wishes, the luxuries, lavish lifestyles (for some people) etc.
This is why I said it's a near impossible dreams to some people, many people wish for it, many dream always about it, but the truth is that, it's near to impossibility for some people.
Financial stability, is a state of being able to meet our financial needs comfortably, (financial bouyancy).
Here our need comes first, and it's comfortably handled, really our wishes exist, but here we can't comfortably handle both the wishes and the needs together.
This two above has a significant difference from not being able to afford our needs- that's poverty. (Extreme financial lack).
From the above I want use it to arrive to the main context of this article.
Stability or financially free, is the stage most of us are aiming for, many have got there already, many on their way way up, but in all this happiness is the essence of all this struggle to belong.
You can maximize your happiness regardless of your financial situation, (if you doubt me, all the poor people could have been sadist, but yet we have more sadist among the rich) why so, because happiness comes from within, not in what we have.
To always be happy financially; keep your budget to your reach, avoid borrowing, attend to your financial needs first before your wishes, take out time for a cool time either with friends or alone.
Plan your budget, no matter what, don't let the expenses be above the income, it will put on much pressure on you to maintain the tempo of the in and out flow of money around you.
Have savings, they save you from unforeseen circumstances, keep you away from loyalty attached to borrowing money from someone.
Invest money on things that has potentials of generating income, no matter how little. Money investment does the work for you in your absence without draining your energy and time.
But invest wisely and only what you can afford to lose. (For your happiness sake)
Take out time to enjoy yourself, hangout with friends, your loved ones etc.
They say;
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
Time invested on yourself has much to do with your emotions and balance, it heals much, resuscitate our unconscious life and keep us happy.
During my days in school, on weekends, I do go to shopping mall, sometimes to Shoprite, I will just go there, buy bread (that are just brought out from oven), buy some beverages, then take pictures and go back to my lodge.
By this, there are three significant things I get from doing this;
¶ firstly the price of this stuff I get from this malls are even cheaper there, than in retail shops, the quality too is top-notch.
¶ Secondly, I get to create awareness for myself, see how life is moving out there, meet and interact with people, as well, make new friends atimes.
¶ And thirdly, I feel among, the feelings of the need to belong, is always satisfied everytime I go there to get the things I needed.
You can see that with the little money I have, I was able to maximize my happiness from it.
Here, it's not about the money I had, it is the way I spend it that makes me happy.
Sometimes I go with friends, there we laugh and gist, life goes on.
So device a way to enjoy every moment of your life, spend your money (no matter how much) in a way that you will drive joy and happiness from it, whether you're financially free or stable, life's good!, So enjoy it !!.
