Before you plunk down a bunch of money on something, consider whether or not it makes sense in terms of your values, priorities, and goals. Even a split second of reflection on whether or not a purchase will help you get there can be beneficial in helping you decide. We’re all constantly bombarded by messages about spending more…you can’t even scroll thru Facebook without seeing ads that are handpicked for you!  That’s why it’s really important to engage in more value based spending.  Knowing what they are, then you can decide whether that purchase fulfills or distracts from your savings goals!
