Your Daily Money Minute Routine
What do you need to do on a daily basis with your money to see success and growth, abundance, prosperity and all the places? First off, before I give you the step by steps, what you actually need to do, I want to make sure we’re clear. When I say every day, I don’t literally mean seven days a week, I want you to take a minimum one day off, really, if you’re doing this Monday through Friday, you’re doing pretty good.
I try and do the six days a week. But absolutely, I want to make sure that you’re taking one day off, to rest to take care of yourself to do those things to walk away recharge, okay. We’ve got that out of the way. I call this your Daily Money Minute.
Task 1 – Check Your Bank Account
And at its basic foundation, you’ve got to do two things, okay? I want you to log in, look at your bank account, doesn’t matter what it says. Whatever it is, look at the bank account. And then immediately go look at whatever the thing is that you’re working towards.
Maybe you want to buy a new vehicle, maybe you want to have a new property, maybe you want to take a vacation, whatever the next thing is for you. Maybe you’re hiring a housekeeper something, whatever that thing is that you’re working towards right now. The next thing that you want to achieve, go look at that, okay, immediately after, because it doesn’t matter what is actually in the bank account, we’re tying that to the association that you’re going to get what you’re working towards.
Utilizing Budgeting Software
Now, ideally, when you do this, you could check the bank account, what I ended up doing most of the time is this is when I check YNAB. That’s the budgeting software I use, it’s called you need a budget. I’ll put an affiliate link below if you want to check them out.
It’s like a free 32 day trial. They’re one of the top budgeting software’s that I love and use. But regardless, hopefully you have that budgeting software in place.
Quick check-in. Approve transactions, you catch fraud faster with this step, because you’re staying on top of it. And it’s not about like freaking out, or what’s what is or isn’t in the bank account.
We’re training ourselves just to look at the numbers. It’s simply what it is. They’re just numbers, no emotion attached, right.
So check in with YNAB, whatever budgeting software you’re using, or check into the bank account, log into the bank account, you can do both just looking at the balance, then go visualize what it is you’re working on. It’ll take like 60 seconds, 90 seconds. That’s why it’s a Daily Money Minute.
Task 2 – Cultivate Positive Habits
A couple other things that I recommend for clients to add in like you can depending on where you’re at, and the phases of life that you’re in the things that you’re going through. Sometimes I do this in the morning, sometimes I do this later in the afternoon doesn’t really matter. Whatever works for you making a priority to do these things.
But journaling, especially if you are going through a bit of a roller coaster with you know life, business, money, all those things, start journaling. Write down those feelings, those thoughts, those emotions, what’s coming up for you. Having a gratitude list, writing down 10 things that you’re thankful for each and every day.
Be intentional about it be specific. I write these down in my journal, but we also do an exercise at the dinner table with my kids where they have to tell me three things that they’re thankful for every day.
And then we talk the 16-month old. Yes, she’s still 16 months, the 16 month old we will talk as a family what we think she’s thankful for that day, which is always a fun conversation, because it really gets her siblings thinking.
Celebrate Small Wins, Ignite Big Success
And then the third thing is a celebration list writing down at the end of the day five things that you’re celebrating that you did accomplish because as high achievers overachievers. We tend to rush past all that we’ve accomplished and discounted, and your celebration list of five things that you achieve. Even if it’s a rough day you know taking a shower can make it you know the kids ate whatever it might be.
But finding five things to celebrate is so key and so helpful when it comes to your mindset. We up level your vibration there. With the journaling, the gratitude and celebration list. It helps with all the mindset or work we’re doing with in our Daily Money Minute.
All right. That’s what you got to do on a daily basis with your money. I do have like a step-by-step checklist for you. Or for my Money Mastery Academy members that is included. If you want to fill on that just drop Academy below and I’ll make sure to get that to you. We’ll see you next time. Bye for now.
