Travel Expenses

June 26, 2024 This week marked the end of my vacation. Again, I could see how preparing financially for a trip limits spending. However, I did not plan in this manner. So, another behavior to purposefully plan is budgeting for travel expenses. I once effectively used this as a practice, but I continually see that as you magnify certain areas of your life, you'll certainly find something that could use a tune-up.It is a little daunting because I have to resist the urge to do what I want at that moment. I'm unsure if others have the “I work so I can buy this” conversation. “Can buy” versus “should buy” are ideas that have come up for me this week. Reframing my thoughts will be intentional and a work in progress on this journey. I will definitely share my behavior change progress on reshaping priority with purchases. It is great to be on this journey, but the self-reflection regarding how I got so far away from healthy habits requires lots of grace and self-compassion. Things can shift in our lives at any moment, and those shifts have caused me to settle into habits that have seemingly gotten me to the next point. However, I desire to move beyond those habits and practice self-management and control to reach my goals. I am identifying behaviors to change. At the end of this week, I will tally my expenses because I saved all my receipts and will make a budget and adjustment accordingly. I will keep you posted on my experience.
