5 Money Lessons I Learned During My Worst Financial Phase

Image
  A year ago, my life was going well. I had just gotten married, enjoyed a great honeymoon, and everything felt settled. But slowly, things started to change. Problems don’t come suddenly. They build up quietly. When Salary Stopped Coming on Time My employer started delaying salaries. At first, it felt like a small issue. But after 3–4 months , the situation became worse. We even discussed it directly with the company owner (since it was a small company), but every time we got the same answer: 👉 “Wait for 1–2 months, everything will be fine.” But nothing improved. Instead, things kept getting worse month by month. And this is where the real pressure started. The Real Problem Was Not Salary Delay The biggest problem was not just the delayed salary. It was my home loan EMI . Every month, I had to pay it. So to manage that, I started using my credit card . But instead of solving the problem, it created more debt . One problem was slowly turning into multiple p...

Why I Uninstalled Facebook (And What I Realized Later)

Image
Most of us feel that if we don’t use social media, we will miss out on important updates, stories, and what’s happening in other people’s lives. We think we will be left behind . But if you observe carefully, most of those updates don’t really affect your life. If something truly important happens, someone will tell you anyway. Still, we carry this fear of missing out .

I checked my phone, notes, and other places, but couldn’t find it. Then I thought, “Let me quickly check Facebook. It will take just 1–2 minutes.” I opened Facebook. But instead of checking the birthday, I saw a video post. I started watching it. Then another video came. Then another. And it continued… After 30–45 minutes , I finally closed the app. And then one question hit me… Why Did I Even Open It? I suddenly remembered tha...

How I Slowly Built the Habit of Exercise

Image
About 5–6 years ago , I used to watch many videos about success, becoming rich, and the habits of successful people. Most of those videos talked about things like discipline, mindset, and daily routines. But one habit that I noticed almost every successful person had in common was exercise . That made me think. I also wanted to join a gym and get fit since childhood. But at that time my parents did not allow it, so I decided that I would join a gym after I started earning money . But since I was not earning yet, I decided to start with something simple .

How I Built a Daily Routine That Finally Worked (After Many Failed Attempts)

Image
Many people try to build a daily routine. They watch videos, read advice, and create a perfect schedule. But after a few days, the routine slowly breaks. I had the same problem. Then one day I learned a simple idea — set small weekly goals and review them every week . So I decided to test this method for a month and see if it actually works. Here is what happened. Week 1: Writing My Routine In the first week, I wrote down my entire daily routine from wake-up time to sleep time . I divided my day into three parts: Morning Office / Work time Evening I also planned my weekends. Sometimes extra work comes on weekends, so I decided to skip the routine on Sunday and keep it flexible. This helped me clearly see how my day actually looks . Week 2: Tracking My Routine In the second week, I made a small improvement. Instead of just writing the routine, I started tracking it . I wrote down: The days when I followed the routine The days when I skipped it This helped me unde...
