I recently got a huge pay cut at my job, so I’ve been forced to learn how to live with less. It was a hard reality to face but I think doing a no-buy is my only hope. 🥺 Thanks for these tips. ❤️

Good luck 👍🏻 just think about it this way, if anything happens in the future like a pay cut or job transition, you will have funds to keep you going and any change won’t be a stressor once you have a full savings ❤️❤️

That really sucks and I am sorry that you have to face a harder financial time. I hope that you can feel that you are a bit more in control by working with a no buy year. Even though you are doing it because of a clear need I hope that it can still be empowering to make rules and decisions about what you will and wont buy. Taking charge of what you can control for me is something I find helpful and I hope you will too. Harder times can give us skills and capacities that will serve in ways we cannot imagine and builds towards a stronger self. I wish you the best and hope that more financial opportunities find you. Thank you for sharing :)

AWESOME!!! Very helpful and more…sending you a confirmation that you are truly an amazing human being. I totally understand about not feeling confident; the ironic thing is that everyone thinks you are. That’s also because often we see something and someone that we just love, and somehow we think we cannot be that or are not valuable. See, Tara Brach’s “trance of unworthiness” and her RAIN meditation. Tara Brach has really helped me, and I continue to grow with her work. Your video brought me to quiet tears. All the stuff you were saying-it’s so true! Your reasons aligned with mine, yet I could not verbalize them. Now I have a framework. Thank you. Please consider telling us more about your “spiritual” values. You have such a wonderful values but I would love to know more and books you might recommend. I’ll say it again, “You are an inspiration.” Thank you for these videos. Thank you for “being” you.

Came across your channel as I came up with the idea of doing a no buy year this year. I'm not a big shopper as I used to be, but doing the math of all of my expenses this year has been stressing me out as I don't have the space in my budget for anything to buy freely or impulse shop. I have to only focus on my necessities. Thank you for creating this kind of content. It's been quite helpful and I hope to bring in more savings by the end of 2022 even though right now it's impossible for me to live below the means.

@@NeliaRose One of the reasons why I'm doing this is because I want to stop being influenced by social media to get more and more stuff. It's just not healthy and I don't want to live like this. I want to stop being distracted from important things in life and my insecurities etc. There are much more important things in life. I noticed that the less I have, the more grateful I am for the little that I have. The more I seem to have, the more joy I lose along the way and things start to lose meaning and value to me. It's so weird how that works! I love simplicity and gratefulness.

It can be so hard to break a well formed addiction or habit but it is small steps and slow but persistent dedication that will get you there. Finding other things that will fill up your time and life so that the cravings are not as strong can be helpful.

It is so hard sometimes to get yourself into the right mindset but it doesn’t happen over night. It takes time to keep reminding yourself that it is okay to buy things if they are a true need. It is also important to create clear and reasonable rules and structure to work within. Finding your balance within a No Buy year is a part of the process and even when mistakes happen acknowledging them but not giving up and trying to lear from it and do better next week. One day at a time :) Thank you so much for sharing and I hope your 2022 is off to a good start :)

I love the idea of giving yourself some allowances for certain categories. Do you just have a general number of items or is there a budget aspect where each item can't go over X amount?
@NeliaRose
2 жыл бұрын
I personally say a number amount. For example this year I am allowed to buy 3 makeup items and 3 clothing. I don't assign a particular budget to these things but one definitely could say $100 on makeup or whatever for the year. I personally work with a number amount because then I think more in the terms of quality over quantity. In saying that though I do have a budget in general for everything that I spend my money on so my spendings do need to come under that over arching budget. If I want to buy a winter coat with my clothing allowance I will still need to say have to make sure I have enough in my clothing cash envelope (budget). I hope that makes sense :) Thank you for the comment and I hope you are having a lovely start to 2022 :)
