No wallet lessons:

• It is easy to go on a tangent when you have options. If I have no money and no options, I go directly to the place where I need to go. If it isn’t in the plan there is no reason.
  • Takeaway: Plan out my day and don’t leave an escape route.
• If something feels remotely difficult, I try to escape mentally by buying something. I don’t think about these things after I buy them.
  • Takeaway: If I want to buy something, think about it for a while. Take a second every month to look at my purchases, be aware of the things I don’t use and spend.

Publicising lessons:

• It is hard work. I couldn’t jut wing it. Doing it properly took some time. There are tools to help this process.
  • Takeaway: Dedicate time to it like I do with this blog. I can’t wing something like that and expect results. I can use tools like Buffer to get results.
• Fear is at the heart of not doing anything when it comes to making things public. Being scared is part of the game, and it comes in many forms.
  • Takeaway: Make taking things public a part of my routine. Not just with twitter, but with Facebook, Instagram, and a mailing list.
