7 Ways to Sabotage Your Financial Future
Why would anyone sabotage their own future? It's not typically a conscious decision, but the product of focusing on short-term gains instead of long-term results. Here are some common ways we sabotage ourselves:
- Hitting the snooze button because the bed is so warm, and the gym doesn't sound fun at 5 a.m.
- Deciding to get gas tomorrow when you may be pressed for time instead of today when you have time, but you're tired.
- Checking out social media when you should be finishing an important project with an impending deadline.
Some of these are more serious than others, but we often make decisions that set ourselves up for long-term failure without even realizing that's what we're doing. Here are seven ways you can sabotage your own financial future and work against yourself.
