Okay, so I’ve been seeing this “life path number” thing all over the internet, and I got curious. Apparently, mine is a 4, and there’s all this stuff about how it relates to money. So, I decided to put it to the test.
Diving into My Life Path Number 4
First, I figured out my life path number. It’s super easy, just add up all the digits in your birth date until you get a single number. I won’t bore you with my math, but trust me, I’m a 4.
Then, I started reading up on what being a 4 means for my finances. Everything said 4s are supposed to be builders, hard workers, practical, and good with managing money – but it’s not always easy.
The Experiment Begins
So, I decided to be super intentional about my money for a whole month. Here’s what I did:
- Tracked every penny: I used a simple spreadsheet, nothing fancy. Every coffee, every bill, everything went in there.
- Made a budget: This was tough. I had to really think about where my money was going and where I wanted it to go.
- Cut back on the small stuff: No more daily lattes. I made coffee at home. It’s a small change, but surprisingly adds up.
- Focused on long-term goals: Started a small saving for my dream.
The Hard Truth & What I am Getting
It wasn’t easy. Sticking to the budget was a struggle some days. I realized I had some bad spending habits that I wasn’t even aware of. It was a real * this 4 energy is all about slow and steady progress, so I kept at it, I keep going on.
By the end of the month, I was actually surprised. I had saved more than I thought I could. More importantly, I felt more in control of my finances. It wasn’t about being rich, it was about being responsible and building a solid foundation, which, apparently, is very “Life Path 4.”
I’m definitely going to keep up with the tracking and budgeting. It’s made a real difference, not just in my bank account, but in my overall peace of mind. I am feeling good.
