I am Spending Boatloads of Money
I’m spending a lot of money right now.
I think I have found a doctor who is uncovering the real cause of my daughter’s chronic health problems.
That makes it easy to spend.
She has found 20+ toxins and molds that are in my daughter’s body.
And now I am spending money on expensive HEPA filtered vacuums and air scrubbers.
We are buying all new natural cleaning supplies and personal care products.
New eCloths to clean the house without chemicals.
And I just spent $36 on two pounds of chicken from a farm that meets all of our health coach’s standards for organic meat.
Then there are the thousands and thousands of dollars on testing and doctor visits.
I am sure there are many more bills to come.
And all this during a pandemic that put my husband out of work.
But spending money on health is a no-brainer.
Why?
Because it’s my kid.
It’s the difference between her finally being able to go to school or get a job versus lying at home in bed crying because she can’t be out with her friends.
I think most people would do the same thing in my situation.
Because saving our kids is our top priority.
It’s easy to know whether to spend or not when you have your priorities prioritized.
The trick is to set your priorities ahead of time.
You may prioritize a new dress over trying a new mascara.
Or you may prioritize a trip over a newer car.
There is no right or wrong answer.
You may think you want it all, period.
You want to pay your monthly bills, fund your retirement, do things to stay healthy and have some extras like your friends have.
All of it, Ellen, all of it.
But there’s always an inner priority system.
It’s fascinating to figure out what it is you truly want.
And why.
Doing it ahead of time takes out the drama.
It’s just you doing you.
Then when the times comes to make some tough choices, you’ve got your own back.
What do you want?
Make your list.
Then put it in order.
Just seeing how your brain justifies everything is fascinating.
It’s you exploring you.
That’s your homework.
