I need to stop making the same financial mistakes

Earlier today, I realized I’m always in the same financial mess. This day I’ve have millions, the next day I’m struggling to stay afloat because I give everything out and don’t save.

I’m thankful that I’m very content and not materialistic else I’d have been in a lot for debt.

I had been praying to God to come through for me financially this week. Although, I have some people owing me and also funds I’m expecting from a client but all the promises of paying this week, nothing happened and I was beginning to question God.

I believe He made me realize today that it’s a good thing to give but I can’t keep repeating the same mistakes – giving everything I have and saving none for myself for rainy days or just expecting that things would happen because I’m giving.

My prayer is that when next money comes in, I plan it. Write down what I can give out, what I’m saving, what I’m using for what and then stick to it.

    What I recently started doing was to transfer the money I intend to save into another account as soon as I get paid.
    It’ll be most preferable if your savings account doesn’t have an ATM card, so that you don’t withdraw your money except you really have to.

    I also draw up a budget, although I never really follow it.
