The saying, "Old ways don't open new doors" is a good challenge and I was indeed challenged by this when I was recently on a forced vacation from work when I contacted Covid last week!
As I lay on my sickbed feeling sorry for myself I began to reflect on my life and work in the light of the world we now live in with the volatile share market, rising cost of food , rising fuel costs, increasing interest rates etc. and my forced sabbatical allowed me to inspect not only how I spent my time but also how time could and how it is used could have an impact on my spending.
I hope you will enjoy this weeks reflective podcast and be influenced to ask yourself the question - How can I do things better and therefore reduce my expenses (Or increase my income?)
