Fourth day

We are now going to start our fourth mission. Little by little, we are beginning our transformation. It is difficult, boring and painful. Any change brings discomfort, and consequently our mood changes and personal problems may start to arise. If you have children, a husband or any close relationship, they will also be affected by your financial change. Let's say that the people around you may not support you in this phase where you have to reduce your expenses in order to get rid of your debts. Your children will want to continue buying useless things, your friends will continue going out to parties and your husband may not understand that going to the movies will have to stop until your finances are under control.

So the task of the fourth day is to talk to the people around you and explain what your priorities are at this moment and how important this will be for everyone at the end of the process. Show your spreadsheet, don't be afraid to expose your reality. If the people around you really like you, they will help you and look for economic alternatives to continue having a good relationship. This could be an opportunity for you to get help from your family or friends, start a business and thus generate extra income. Your children will start to have more responsibility, perhaps look for a job or help with the housework, saving on housecleaning. United minds have more power. And if you don't have anyone to share your purpose with, try writing a daily diary about what you've been doing to save money and pay off debts. Every day, write a little, like: Today I went to Walmart to do the weekly shopping, I bought chicken instead of meat because it was cheaper, I didn't buy any sodas and I changed my shampoo brand to a cheaper one, I believe I saved $20. It seems ridiculous, but every penny counts, and putting this on paper will make you more focused, making your brain look for more alternatives to reach your final goal.
