About this episode
It's impossible to create the financial results that you want without experiencing discomfort. We are all programmed to believe that we can make choices with our money and with our spending where we can avoid discomfort altogether. We can't. Discomfort is coming along for the ride whether you want it to or not. With discomfort, the question isn't "Will I feel it?" . The question is rather "When will I feel it and to what extent?". When we impulsively make purchases and when we overspend, we are making the choice that is going to help us avoid discomfort in the short term. But when you do that consistently, you're not actually avoiding the discomfort you're trying so badly to escape. You're really prolonging and amplifying the discomfort to a future moment that your future self will have to deal with and clean up on a larger scale. So the choice comes down " Do I want to feel a smaller amount of discomfort right now? Or feel it on a larger scale in the future?" This is the question we are exploring on this week's episode of The Money Love Podcast. When we realize that discomfort is something that can't be avoided we can start to embrace it and start making more disciplined choices with our spending that help us create the financial results that we want. Running away from discomfort just creates more of it. Embracing it creates less of it, so let's all embrace it.
