Living within your means is an act of self love.
It requires you to honestly assess where you are and what you have, and being okay with that.
It requires you being okay with sometimes not being a part of the “cool” crowd.
It requires you really recognising where you are and understanding that it does not define you in any way, whatsoever! Whether thrifty or nifty, grassy or grand, it is not you.
Your acceptance of your circumstances is a beautiful act of love of your self.
