Greetings to everyone today,
I have been listening to this wonderful book by Jen Sincero, called “You are a Badass at Making Money.” http://jensincero.com This book is so effortlessly engaging and yummy. I started it for assessing where I was at with money and my relationship to it.
I realized that one thing I had learned inadvertently from my parents while growing up was: “You have to slave away to get money day and night.”
When I was younger, I watched while my dad not only worked day shifts, but very regularly, he would (what we knew as kids, come to know well), was called by him, “pulling an all nighter.” Having my dad do this on a regular basis, caused a sense in me that I could never ever be done working and if you stop working you are only on a break.
I saw this pattern repeated by my mother when one day while working, I asked her simply, “mom, when do we get to be done cleaning?” She replied, “work is never done, I will always be able to find jobs for you to do.” I got discouraged at hearing that because what then was the point of working quickly, especially if you never get to be done; which also began the thought of, “what you do will never be enough!”
Now I know my well meaning parents never meant for me to learn, that what I did was never enough or that I needed to slave away day and night for money, but that was exactly what I took away from those experiences… until now.
I have changed that belief/mindset with myself, because it didn’t serve me anymore.
Slaving away for anything, is not my cup of tea, nor the reality that I want for myself. Taking all that time in consideration too? All day and all night?!? That’s a lot of time!
I know that I am diligent and wise with my time and I know the difference of slavery versus mastery.
I am not a slave, besides, I choose to be the master versus the slave.
Being the master of something, means to me that I’m smart and wise in that area.
In thinking about it that way, I wouldn’t want to make time my slave or money my slave either.
No thing and no one ever deserves to be a slave!
There is a connection here with time and money. Their energy is a lot alike. It’s like their holding hands.
I master my time, I therefore master my money.
I value my time.
I value my money.
I master what I measure.
I master how I distribute my time.
I master how I distribute my money.
I increment my time for things in a schedule, therefore, I increment my money for things in a schedule.
I do not spend all my time in one area. I do not spend all my money in one area. I spread out and find time for things that I value.
In the same way, I spread out my money and find money for things that I value.
Time is money, money is time
I find the time, I find the money
I master time and money
I value time and money
I measure time and money

I see the value and worth in myself, my time, my money.
I’m wise with my time, I am wise with my money.
I am diligent with my time, I am diligent with my money.
Time and money were created by this world to make sense of it. To measure things, to track things.
The energy of time and money was created by the people, for the people.
Money and time was created by people for me to track and measure!
To see growth and patterns!
I love seeing growth and patterns!
I love this energy that people created!
I am great at working with and having fun with this energy!
Thank you people for seeing that we needed these tools for:
Our fun in tracking,
In seeing our growth,
In taking measurement,
and in noticing patterns!
We needed to have these things even more seen and visible, to bring clarity to all subjects, to bring perspectives to all areas wanting to be seen and known!
I love feeling seen, I love feeling known. In the same way, I can use these awesome tools to feel seen and to feel known.
With these tools of time and money, I can use these to support myself in seeing and knowing myself!
When I find special time for myself or special money for myself, it always feels good!
I love to find out what I give importance to as well, so in watching where I spend my time and money. I can then find out what is important to me.
I love that!!!!!
I am so grateful for these things we call:
Time and money.
Money and time.
Time and money.
Money and time.
Time and money.
Money and time.
Wow, that was fun! I loved writing that out and figuring out how I purpose to think about time and money
Signing out,
Have a wonderful day everyone 😊
