Uncouple your mood from making money!
Have you ever had those days when you feel lousy, a failure or just plain underachiever?
Well I felt that way this morning and practically the whole day.
How did I deal with it??
I realised I was genuinely not well, sore throat and runny nose BUT I thought it was because my tenant did not pay their rent on time!!
How could I make that connection??
Its easy once you get the hang of making false associations. I realised I made some life altering decisions in the past, which is to search for some shiny get rich quick gimmick or head back to my bookmarks which house some of the sales pages I really should ideally avoid (especially when I feel louzy!).
It is so incredible that even when you ARE making money you get hit by old habits and associations.
Great...So what now?
Well, I realized I first had to uncouple my physical unwell from my finances. My earning money has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with my finances at this particular time. It did before but it doesn't now and that is where I realized I was going to make old mistakes.
For the first time in a long time I am making enough money from all sectors of my investments and I nearly dipped into those while feeling crappy to try and make myself feel better.
Guess what that would have done?
It would have made me feel WORSE and I would have spiralled!
Anyway, that is what my day was like. How was yours?

Left chat to help my wife finish up a drainage job she took on.
5 months of sitting in front of this laptop. Sure got me out of shape fast.
I thought my walks were good long walks but I guess not good enough.
I am sore and tired from a couple hours of move dirt around. Tieing down old 4" PVC pipe down to the SUV was just plan killer.
Thanks for sharing adn hope the rest of your day was a good one.

Aww that sux then. You need to look after yourself better. Your intake must match you output. If you can't exercise don't eat like Michael Phelps. Helps me remember when I get sedentary.
But its so hard and the chips look so goood. No use being unable to enjoy financial freedom like most successful affiliates at home.

My days seem to be patterned within the first 5 minutes of the day. If all goes well at first it will follow. If I oversleep or things go badly in that time, the pattern is set. I try to override and change the bad ones but in retrospect, they rarely change
I go with it sometimes, but there are sometimes I want to go down swinging. I have changed less days around than I would like. But I hope to get better at it like Tony Robbins teaches.
