This allows you the same convenience as a credit card, but quells the temptation to overspend.<\/p>\n<p>When you are willing to make this change, you immediately gain some personal power.<\/p>\n<p>It makes a statement to yourself and the universe that you are willing to become more conscious of your spending.<\/p>\n<p>It sets the stage for a money breakthrough.<\/p>\n<h2>The next step in this money breakthrough process is to take your credit card out of your wallet or purse altogether.<\/h2>\n<p>Don\u2019t even have it readily available. I\u2019m not suggesting that you cut it up. There may be an emergency situation where you have to use credit.<\/p>\n<p>The idea behind not having it in your wallet is that you aren\u2019t able to make a quick decision to purchase <a href=\"https:\/\/internalgroove.com\/2023dev\/feel-good-spending-money\/\">something you really don\u2019t need<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If your credit card is in the back of your closet instead of your back pocket, you remove the opportunity to spend without contemplating the consequences.<\/p>\n<h2>You fortify the boundary by removing the opportunity to cross it in a moment of weakness.<\/h2>\n<p>Are you serious about your quest for financial freedom? If so, take this initiative. You will gain a renewed sense of personal power every time you don\u2019t use your credit card.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you feel you are in need of a money breakthrough, or you simply want to improve your financial freedom quotient, I have a toolbox full of effective money breakthrough tools!
