In this culture of hustle and burnout, it’s easy to forget to have fun, plan time off, and have boundaries. There’s a time for “responsibility” and a time for YOLO.

You have your own YOLO, treat yourself things. They look different for everyone, especially considering where you are with your business and financial situation. It may be like when I started scheduling one facial treatment a quarter. Maybe it’s a weekend away, and it’ll evolve over time.

Pick at least one, preferably a few, of your favorite self care activities, earmark some money and schedule the time for yourself. Prioritizing that now makes it a habit that helps you be rewarded and taken care of in the here and now.

One thing to be careful about is impulse spending. Prioritize spending into a Punett square of need and time sensitivity. If it’s needed and urgent, and your finances allow, buy the thing. If it’s needed and not time-sensitive, maybe make a savings plan for it. If it’s a want and not urgent, leave it in your cart and if you’re still thinking about it in a week or 2, then go for it.

Prioritize.

Consciously spend in an aligned manner.

Plan in taking care of yourself.
