TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

Good morning everyone happy Monday morning. So today the title is Money is not what I thought it to be and the subtitle is my relationship with money matters So this I wrote in response to this I wrote and was published and it was in response to daily prompt day eight If money were no object, how would you spend your time? Okay, how do you spend your time? When I read today's prompt, I was inspired to ask myself the following question If money were no object As of now, I'm not considering considering considering it as an object or material.

I am not considering it. I'm not considering it Oh, I can't I'm starting that so as of now. I'm not considering it as an object or material to be based upon what I have read and based upon my own experience with money as An evolving Lalita right from my childhood from the school days to college doors college time when I earn my scholarship Full full right to my bachelors full right to my masters. So when I own plus full right and I also saved money from this So by seeing that right and also going working in a bank going through the pranks of the ladder I can find and then moving into a new country and then seeing something different the visa regulations the dependent visa That you cannot work and then seeing my position my title go up and then seeing a layoff and seeing spin-off acquisition of the And going through all these things and then experiencing for I would say forced self-employment seeing all these things and seeing My relationship and then I observed something different something different my evolution as a human being from a child to an adult and my Relationship with money started evolving.

Okay As of now, I'm not considering considering it as an object or material to me money has transformed from Quine to paper to an intangible number in online banking. Okay, let me come to the next part How would you spend your time? First I would find ways to create a good relationship with an intangible number in the online banking system Okay What does it mean? See originally I used to you know as a banker.

I've seen my cashier's count cash So I could see the money flow through it will you know it'll come into the teller and then the teller What it is in ledger system We will check the numbers and we will tally the numbers We would see the physical money move all those things are there right? So and then it is evolved now. It's online banking you see the numbers So I would find ways to truly find out about how I feel when the numbers go up and down Do I get scared and feel not good enough? Does it jump on my my feeling my being that I don't feel good enough when the number goes down if yes I will learn about how I can befriend the money and how to provide value in the marketplace That's how I would spend time.

I change my relationship with money after reading the book money is my friend I feel lot. It's a very very old publication, but it really makes sense to me I read this book several times and I still read it I go back and read it especially the affirmations mentioned therein I will spend the time on activities that move me toward my self-set goals move me towards my self-set goals That increase my energy that helps me save time conserve energy and save money the three sources of power as I learned from Mark Joyner founder of Simpleology And it makes sense to me after doing all the exercises and the training from that Simpleology the three sources of power are time money energy always ask this question How can I conserve time? How can I conserve money? How can I conserve energy?

How can I save? How can I be productive? No, don't be hard on yourself. You know, how can I save time?

Okay, the task is there How can I save time even inside your house? You don't need to be a working woman or a big business owner or something Even when you're doing your day-to-day chores, you're cooking you're cleaning you're organizing the stuff, you know And then pat yourself on your back. That is your reward to your own self Oh my god, I saved 30 minutes of my time doing this. Had I done it this way?

I would have spent one hour of time so that same thing with energy What are you eating? What are you not eating unhealthy sleep patterns bad ergonomics all these things can contribute to? dreaming of energy same thing with money So it's okay to expand on yourself, but are you splurging unnecessarily become aware of it? And it's a it's a learn the scale you can you can evolve as you're evolving as a human being you can learn these It's okay.

If you're failing the past. It's okay. You didn't if you didn't do good, but you can become better now Awareness builds momentum. Okay, that's it because I have to do it in 150 words But I spoke a lot in my podcast episode shout out to just Julie and her blog.
