Manage What You Monitor
This week, I want to share with you what happened to me when I stopped monitoring my coffee shop (budget) behavior!
Here's a little back story: Last month, our TBP wellness practice was to manage what we monitor. When you know better, you do better. So if there's a behavior you are thinking of changing, the first step is to monitor it in order to decide if it's worth changing or not. I chose to monitor the amount of money I spent at the coffee shop.
At the end of the month, I deemed the amount of money I spent at the coffee shop to be appropriate, and that I did NOT need to make any behavior changes. Fast forward to this month, and I have already spent double(ish) what I did last month when I was monitoring! And we still have 9 days left in the month!
DID I SPEND LESS BECAUSE I WAS MONITORING THE BEHAVIOR LAST MONTH? OR DID I START SPENDING MORE BECAUSE I WAS NO LONGER MONITORING AND TRACKING?
