074 - Money Dates | The Best Tool For Taking Control Of Your Money
In this episode of the Mind Money Soul podcast, I’m going to be sharing why money dates are the ultimate tool for taking control of your money.
A money date is the practise of regularly sitting down 1 on 1 with your money, spending time with it and going through all the information to analyse the past week or month, plan ahead for the following month and reflect on your relationship with money. This data will move you to the financial drivers seat, so that your money is no longer the one in control. Like I always say, data is knowledge, and knowledge is power.
You have to treat your money like you would treat a partner in a healthy, loving relationship. If you’re not going on date nights, spending quality time together or connecting as a couple, you're not going to understand each other and the relationship will break down. It’s exactly the same with money. You need to date your money in order to show your money that you care, respect, love and are interested in it. Going on regular money dates will allow you to feel good about money, build wealth, explore your relationship with money, move closer to your big happy life goals, build financial resilience and improve your confidence.
