Preparing for a Financial Circumstance
Well, we are facing a time where one might lose a job due to restructuring process in the company.
It is just disappointing when you didn’t do anything and you face loss while you haven’t done anything to deserve this loss.
Well, for such a statement, I tell myself: Life is both up and down. Don’t expect to live life full of roses. Life doesn’t work like that.
Besides, how we would ever go to paradise without being assessed, checked and tested for our faith and heart intentions?
In such a context, I go into practical mental preparations mode. The following are some of the practicalities:
Focus on the necessary/important expenses only (food, bills)
Leisure expenses, delay them to later (no need to specify a date here)
Focus on what you already have (home, kids, routines, work tasks available capacity)
Let go of what you can’t control and focus on what you can control.
Activate the possibility mindset. What is possible. This door is closed. Another door is about to open.
