Boss Up Your Life — One Step at a Time
Your 5-Minute Money Check
Feeling overwhelmed by money?
This quick check is designed to help you pause, breathe, and get clarity — not fix everything at once.
You don’t need spreadsheets, apps, or experience.
Just 5 minutes and honesty.
Minute 1: Where are you right now?
Write down:
Your current bank balance (or a rough estimate)
The date of your next payday
That’s it. No judgment. Awareness comes first.
Minutes 2–3: Look at recent spending
Think about the last 3 things you spent money on.
Now ask yourself:
Did this support my needs?
Did it support my lifestyle?
Or was it a stress / impulse decision?
Circle one expense you wouldn’t repeat next time.
This is insight, not failure.
Minutes 4–5: Choose one small intention
Answer this question (in one sentence):
“One money decision I want to feel better about this month is…”
Examples:
cooking at home twice a week
checking my account every Friday
paying a little extra toward one bill
Small steps build confidence.
You’re done 🎉
Seriously — that counts.
You didn’t budget.
You didn’t restrict yourself.
You didn’t “mess up.”
You showed up.
