Many individuals feel a constant strain regarding their financial situation. Despite working hard, the rising cost of living and increasing expenses often lead to a sense of never having enough. If you’ve ever felt trapped in this cycle, you’re not alone. The author Laina Buenostar addresses this pervasive issue in her book Happy Money: Increase the Flow of Money with a Simple 2-Step Formula.

The Endless Cycle of Financial Strain

The relentless push to earn more money often leads you to believe that your self-worth is tied to your net worth. The more you earn, the more you spend, creating a cycle that can quickly become exhausting. This perspective can make money feel like a burden, and many of us might subconsciously associate it with negativity.

How often do you think that to increase your financial standing, you must work harder, take on extra jobs, or create additional income streams? While these actions might seem necessary, they can also lead to burnout and drain the joy from your life. The weight of financial concerns can overshadow your capacity for happiness and abundance.
