I was having coffee one morning with a bunch of people and the subject came up about bills. On how everyone around that table had bills stacked up to the ceiling or that is the way it seemed at the time.
Of course one horror story after another came up. But the bottom line that everyone did ask. Do your bills define you? It got quite. No one said a word for about a minute.
The Don stood up and said, “You know, you got to have bills” People started chattering about that statement, that is a lie and you don’t know what you are talking about.
I started thinking about it, Does your bills define you… hmm…
If you are working just to pay the bills. Then the bills define you. If you are working to make your life better, then you are learning to control your bills. If you are working to catch up, then your bills define you, again.
Bills define you, when you have more bills than money. It’s a life style that at times people choice to do. A lot of times people don’t choice it but it is chosen for them.
When you are buried with bills and you see no end at the near, then it is your bills that is creating your life. Not that you are creating your life.
As you go around you’re day and start choosing what you want to do. I want you to think on how the bill defines you. When you work, does the job help you cover only your expenses? When you work today, are you trying to get ahead? When you go to work, are you doing it for your bills only?
Bills are not the answer and should never be. We have bills to have things quickly into our lives. We need to work on getting rid of the bill stress and start looking for life to live.
Remember we chose that path and sometimes it should not be the path to choose. You must remember that you are on a journey and sometime that journey will take into a path that you do not want to go to. But sometime you have to do it to learn something about yourself. That is good.
We all have bills and it’s going to be none stop. But you have to control it. You have the power to get it done and get it correct. But if you work on getting rid of bills then bills will never define you.
A bill less life is a stress life. Work on getting it right. I know you can.
