Optimistic

I’m currently feeling
Optimistic.

My thoughts creating this feeling:
The start of a new year with so many opportunities available. I have read many people’s summary of achievements for 2023 and their hopes for 2024. Some of it truly inspiring. For myself, I choose not to look backwards, but forwards to all the possibilities that lay ahead. I have built a solid fondation over the last year that will help me into this year. My WOTY for 2024 is Wealth. I want to increase my wealth financially and take control of my finances, so I can plan for early retirement in 3yrs time and be able to live comfortably before I’m able to draw various pensions. I want to be wealthy in terms of friendships, knowledge, love and passions. I want a wealth of experiences.

My extraordinary goal for the year is…
To be financially savvy again. Planning for early retirement by getting back on track with understanding my savings, investments and pensions.

What result will I produce this month?
No clothes or accessory purchases at all this month.

My tasks for the day is…
To start as I mean to go on. Watch some SOSI Wealthy Woman workshops and start to learn where to start getting my finances in order. To look the part, feel the part and embrace the part. Back to work tomorrow so I need to do some food prep. And bash out the first JWW of the year.

What thoughts are holding me back? 
My attention span for all things financial isn’t that great, so I need to learn to be more patient, read things and learn about them properly.

What thought will I practice instead?
This is an opportunity to learn and really understand. I don’t want to be blindly lead by C or his financial adviser.

What can I remove, elevate, upgrade or add to my style to embody my future self?
Dark jeans, the white fluffy cardigan I had taken in and the buttons replaced, pearl necklace, earrings and bracelet. I can at least start to look the part of an elegant wealthy woman.

What can I remove, elevate, upgrade or add to align with my future self’s environment?
I will spend today researching materials that will help me understand my finances better. I will look for opportunities to upgrade my environment that demonstrates careful wealth.

What am I excited to practice and improve?
My understanding of financial and personal wealth.

My progress and my blessings
I am open to learning. I am willing to research and get a solid understanding so I can hold my own in conversation about future planning.

What do I declare myself to be today?
Open to possibilities.

What questions can I ask of myself today?
How can I start researching and knowing what and where the best things to learn from?

What words of encouragement, insight, wisdom or humour does my future self have for me today?
I have a day free of needing to be anywhere else. I can dedicate it to early research.
