 financial soft life tips I
0:07
would say let's get into it so first of
0:09
all let's get into the term soft life I
0:12
think most of us know what it means but
0:14
let's dive a little bit deeper to
0:16
understand truly how this relates to our
0:17
finances when you're focusing on living
0:20
a softer life your focus is Ease comfort
0:24
and intentional living with minimum
0:26
stress living a soft life prioritizes
0:30
your well-being balance and enjoyment
0:32
over consistent hustle and grind it
0:35
doesn't glorify burnout and overwork but
0:37
the selft life's approach encourages you
0:40
to take a gentle and relaxed approach to
0:43
life while pursuing your goals and
0:45
desire in a sustainable and mindful way
0:48
and in order to live a LIF like that
0:50
Finance is there to support you so you
0:52
want to look at your finances as money
0:55
as masculine energy and that money in
0:58
your finances is Crea it creates this
1:01
masculine structure where when things
1:03
are set up properly you are able to rest
1:06
in your feminine energy and you're just
1:08
able to flow without that masculine
1:10
structure of your money and your
1:12
finances you will not feel comfortable
1:15
or safe enough to really rest in your
1:17
feminine
1:18
energy the very first tip is to automate
1:21
your payments this is a great self-life
1:23
tip because you only have to do it once
1:26
and it's set for a long period of time
1:28
until you stop it you want to set up
1:30
automatic transfers for your expenses
1:33
such as your rent your mortgage your car
1:36
payments your utility bills all of those
1:39
bills you want to already have them
1:43
pre-planned so you don't have to worry
1:44
about it anymore and this is a masculine
1:47
structure because you are protecting
1:48
yourself in a way that everything is
1:51
being paid on time you made you make
1:53
sure you that your bills are going to be
1:54
paid on time you don't have to think
1:57
about it anymore so in a way you can
1:59
just let go and be like oh that's
2:01
already been taken care of I don't have
2:03
to worry about if I need to pay that or
2:06
need to pay this it's taken care of I
2:08
can relax and I know it's going to be
2:11
fine that's going to remove the stress
2:13
that you might have if you um manually
2:16
have to make sure that the money is
2:18
being paid and transferred to the bank
2:20
account of these different companies
2:22
organizations that you're getting
2:24
services from so make sure that the
2:27
payments that you need to make every
2:28
month are on automated it you don't have
2:31
to think about it again number two is
2:33
going to be focused on gratitude I can
2:36
understand that when you're getting your
2:37
money in your bank account you're
2:38
getting your paycheck and then um a lot
2:41
of your money is being taken out of your
2:43
bank account again for all the expenses
2:45
you have but instead of just thinking oh
2:48
my gosh my money is gone think about all
2:51
the things that you now have and that
2:54
you that you have paid for for that
2:56
month so when it comes to your home you
2:58
I have a roof above your head you paid
3:01
for that you can be in your home you can
3:03
be in your couch you can watch your
3:05
television you can be safe in your home
3:07
you can lay in your bed take a shower
3:10
drink water that on its own is something
3:13
to be really grateful for and to show
3:16
appreciation for on a daily basis so I
3:19
want you to go away from thinking oh my
3:21
gosh um all my money is is being taking
3:24
away from me I have nothing left switch
3:27
that mindset so we actually switch from
3:30
lack to abundance and we're thinking wow
3:33
what do I now have what did I paid for
3:36
and what am I getting every single mon
3:38
every single month you are paying for
3:40
your home so appreciate that home you
3:43
are paying for let's say Netflix well
3:46
appreciate that you have Netflix
3:48
appreciate that you have Netflix and
3:50
appreciate that you're able to watch
3:51
Emily in Paris what I'm currently
3:54
watching I want you to be more grateful
3:56
for the things that you are paying for
3:58
don't look at it something that you are
4:00
lacking or that you have to give away no
4:03
what are you getting so you need to pay
4:05
your utility bills well you're able to
4:08
have lights right and I have this light
4:10
shining on me well that is because I I
4:13
paid my utility bills and now you can
4:15
see me I'm able to film this video and
4:18
this is connected to the electricity
4:21
because I paid money to have electricity
4:24
in my life or in my home and that is
4:26
something I need to be grateful for so
4:29
let's switch your mindset from thinking
4:31
in lack and what do I need to give and
4:34
where is all my paycheck going to to
4:36
what am I getting and how good does it
4:39
feel that I'm able to get all of these
4:42
things that I'm now receiving all of
4:45
this be more grateful and especially
4:48
when it comes to the things in our lives
4:50
that we might even take for granted
4:53
because let's be serious how often do
4:55
you stand still and appreciate that you
4:57
have running water coming out of the
5:00
that your running water that you can
5:01
take from the
5:02
sink or that you have when you're open
5:05
your refrigerator that you have an ice
5:08
cold dessert that you can take from the
5:10
refrigerator right if we would put more
5:14
uh appreciation in the things the little
5:17
things in our life that we have you are
5:19
going to see a more shift in your
5:21
mindset and that is actually the
5:23
beginning of shifting from a lack
5:25
mindset to an abundance mindset and you
5:27
do that really a big part of it is with
5:30
gratitude so that's the second thing I
5:32
want you to do if you want to live a
5:34
softer life when it comes to your
5:36
finances appreciate the things be
5:39
grateful for the things that you are
5:41
paying for every single month it's not
5:44
an expense it's a gift that you're
5:47
getting so appreciate the gift and enjoy
5:50
it I am interrupting today's video to
5:52
share something really nice with you I
5:54
have opened up feminine life coaching
5:56
sessions again I got the request from
5:59
many of of you by email asking me urania
6:02
are you still offering coaching and I
6:04
thought well we're entering the last
6:06
quarter of the Year this is the perfect
6:08
time to start coaching and to make sure
6:11
that you're making the best out of these
6:13
last months of the year if you need any
6:15
help or guidance in the following areas
6:17
you see on the screen so think about
6:19
your love and relationships think about
6:22
mindset and beliefs your style and
6:24
appearance your career or abundance or
6:27
your passion and purpose then I would
6:30
say book a coaching session with me and
6:32
together we will in Clarity and set the
6:34
correct goals and intentions I am really
6:37
excited to start coaching again as many
6:39
of you know is that I am a certified
6:41
life coach and I'm really excited to
6:43
start using the tools again that I've
6:45
learned myself to help you ladies get to
6:48
where you want to be so if you are
6:50
interested the link is in the
6:51
description box below and together you
6:54
and me will make sure that we are going
6:56
to make the rest of this year the best
6:58
of the year for you yet I would love to
7:01
see you in
7:04
coaching number three create a relaxing
7:07
budgeting routine you want to create a
7:09
budgeting routine for yourself that is
7:11
manageable and also enjoyable you can
7:14
use budgeting apps or tools that make
7:17
tracking your expenses and your income
7:20
simple and stressfree instead of
7:22
starting this process and feeling um
7:25
lack or feel or coming from a scarcity
7:28
mindset when we link it to Point number
7:29
two start the process from a more
7:32
abundance mindset and think okay what am
7:35
I able to spend my money on this month
7:38
start getting excited about this as well
7:41
also make this process more enjoyable by
7:44
getting yourself a nice beverage when
7:45
you start with your budgeting and you
7:48
can even light a candle but create an
7:51
environment that makes it enjoyable for
7:53
yourself to budget also give yourself
7:56
enough time before your bills are paid
7:59
or are du to start with this process so
8:02
don't do it on the last day of the month
8:04
do it a couple of days before a week
8:06
before so that you have enough time to
8:09
budget out everything for the next month
8:12
create an enjoyable and manageable
8:14
budgeting routine for yourself number
8:17
four prioritize self-care in your budget
8:20
you want to allocate money every single
8:22
month for self-care and personal
8:25
enrichment activities think about spa
8:27
days Hobbies getting your nails done
8:31
going for a massage or other Wellness
8:34
practices investing in yourself
8:36
contributes to overall well-being and it
8:39
contributes to your happiness how can
8:42
you budget and put money aside for your
8:45
selfcare so for example say you want to
8:47
give yourself a really nice pedicure and
8:50
for that month you are not able to pay
8:52
maybe $100 or100 EUR for your pedicure
8:57
what you could do is budget a smaller
8:59
amount that month and say you know what
9:01
I'm going to go on YouTube and see how I
9:03
can give myself a DIY pedicure you can
9:07
get all the items to give yourself a
9:09
nice food bath um get yourself a nice
9:12
nail polish you probably already have
9:14
that in the house and you might need to
9:16
get a couple of things for the for the
9:18
for the treatment you want to give
9:19
yourself you can get it at the Dollar
9:21
Tree for example but I want you to
9:24
allocate money even if just a little bit
9:27
of money every single month to your
9:28
selfcare
9:30
that's how you are also showing to
9:32
yourself that you are worthy of being
9:35
taken care of you are worthy of being
9:38
cared for and being spoiled even if it's
9:41
just with a smaller budget number five
9:44
practice mindful spending you want to
9:47
practice mindful spending by only making
9:49
purchases that you have thought about
9:52
mindful P purchases so it's not about
9:55
just going to the store and thinking oh
9:57
I like that top I'm going to buy it
10:00
no you're thinking okay am I going to
10:03
buy this top and really wear it do I
10:05
have different items in my wardrobe that
10:08
I can um pair it with or is it just a
10:11
nice top that I now see will wear only
10:14
tonight when I go to this party and then
10:16
I'm going to not wear it again so and as
10:19
and this is discounts for smaller
10:21
purchases so a top that is 30 or
10:24
$50 but also and especially for big
10:27
purchase that you're making think about
10:29
it are you making the right decision did
10:31
you do your research and look at
10:33
different companies that are selling the
10:35
same product are you getting the most
10:37
value for your money so making decisions
10:41
that you have thought about instead of
10:43
just thinking hey it's time for a new
10:45
phone do you really need a new phone or
10:47
do you just want to have the latest
10:48
iPhone that that is coming out I used to
10:51
be like that as well whenever there was
10:52
a new iPhone I wanted the latest version
10:55
because why not and now the older I get
10:58
I'm thinking my phone still works so why
11:00
would I want to pay so much money for a
11:03
new phone I will get a new phone when I
11:06
feel that the one that I have right now
11:07
is not working well anymore or I'm
11:10
really um it's really time for me to get
11:12
a new one I am not getting a new phone
11:14
just because the latest version just
11:16
came out so this point is really
11:19
important because this is going to help
11:21
you to save money and it's going to help
11:23
you to appreciate your money more you're
11:26
not just giving it away the moment it
11:28
hits your account but you're thinking
11:30
about it really mindfully very mindful
11:33
very the miror you're thinking about it
11:35
is this the right purchase for me to
11:37
make so whenever we're spending money
11:40
let's all be more mindful of on what we
11:43
spend our money on and and or if there
11:46
are other Alternatives that we can do I
11:50
hope you enjoy today's video and that
11:52
you got some new insight and um are
11:54
motivated again to start living a more
11:56
softer life.
I can do all things
9:49
God gives me strength God
9:51
has plans for me to prosper me not to
9:53
harm me to give me a hope and a future
9:56
and I actually like to fill up my vision
9:59
board with some of these as well
10:01
reframing my mind toward these
10:03
affirmations has been so beneficial for
10:05
me especially when I am gravitating
10:07
toward a negative moment because I can
10:09
pull it back and not stay in that space
go a new direction
10:12
go in a different direction to a place
10:13
that you normally go I know this sounds
10:15
a bit funky but we are working to build
10:17
new neural Pathways and training our
10:19
brains to be able to do things in a new
10:21
and different way when we do things
10:23
differently it helps us to see things
10:25
differently it helps us to have
10:26
different outcomes there's research to
10:28
show that when we go about our normal
10:31
routine but we switch things up just a
10:33
little bit it helps us to get out of a
10:34
rut it helps us to be more creative
10:36
because we're having to actually put
10:38
focus into the steps of completing that
living in abundance
10:40
task the other mindset that we're going
10:41
to work on is I operate in abundance
10:44
people who have privileged mindsets do
10:46
not feel the need to hold on to things
10:48
beyond what is useful and they enjoy
10:51
what they have because they believe more
10:53
is coming if you have ever had less or
10:55
have felt like less whether because of
10:58
finances or maybe not being able to
11:00
easily make friends not being the one
11:02
that people noticed once you get
11:04
something in that space letting go can
11:06
be really hard it's the same if you have
11:08
suffered a big loss we end up just
11:10
holding on to a lot of stuff stuff that
11:13
can and should be used or let go but for
11:17
whatever reason we're afraid to we have
11:19
got to do some things to start moving
11:21
our mindsets in a place of abundance so
save-it-for-later things
11:24
use your fancy save it for later stuff
11:26
today I say it all the time but when I
11:28
was going through my cluttering I
11:30
realized that I had so much stuff that I
11:32
wasn't using that I was saving for later
11:34
but later never came and it was because
11:37
I was scared of parting with things I
11:38
was scared of things getting lean and I
11:40
was scared of not having enough that I
11:42
wasn't enjoying my life and I kept
11:44
putting off using the things that I had
11:47
already bought but when I made the
11:48
decision that today is a special day I
11:51
am going to use the things that I have I
11:54
am not going to keep saving it for later
11:56
it was an immediate confidence boost and
11:59
while it may seem counterintuitive as I
12:02
continue to do that I stopped being
12:04
scared of not having enough I realized
12:07
how many things had been going to waste
12:10
how many things had been collecting dust
12:11
and how much stuff I was just wasting
12:14
money on because I was having a scarcity
12:16
mindset around it also throw away
throw it away
12:19
something that isn't serving you and
12:20
throw away in the sense of get rid of it
12:23
get it out of your home get it out of
12:24
your life get it out of your mind stuff
12:27
people mindsets habits get rid of it it
12:29
can be really difficult at first but you
12:30
will find yourself lighter and so much
12:32
more free when you do it I did a video
12:35
where I talked about how to let stuff go
12:37
that I will link down below for you but
12:39
do yourself a solid and start removing
12:41
things from your life that you have been
12:42
holding on to out of fear fear and
12:45
holding on is not compatible with
12:48
getting to more we cannot get to more
12:50
when we're holding on to things out of
12:52
fear so Let It Go all right I think I'm
next steps
12:54
going to end it here I have so many more
12:56
actionable ways to be able to start
12:58
building and adopting and assuming a
13:00
privileged mindset but this video is
13:03
getting a bit long I do think it's a
13:04
good start and something for you guys to
13:07
be able to chew on and immediately start
13:09
doing right now
