Apps.. new habits.. it’s quick to make changes that really work

1. Working on projects because you want to and not because you have to.

2. Living a comfortable life which to me is being able to afford the necessities to survive (an apartment and all the bills that come along with it; food; minimum debt payments, etc.) and some extra to live without struggling every month.

It’s holding you back but you can beat it

So remember – whatever stage of life you are at: be organized, think ahead and take all the advice you can get!

Ultimately, in love and money, communication is the key to happiness.

Money buys freedom. Freedom to make decisions about how to spend your time. For instance, you can choose your work (or not!), or under your own terms (part-time, out of your house, following your passion) and to make trade-offs in your time (e.g., spend time cleaning or pay someone else to help with that).
