Keep The Change

Most people are letting momentum and compounding work against them. They're compounding the wrong things... Debt, bad habits & negative thinking, instead of building momentum toward their goals.Luke and Mikey break down why momentum is like compounding but for your daily life: once you get it rolling, things become easier, but you have to get your foot on the gas first. We cover the stages of momentum, why it's a cruel mistress that can turn on a dime, and how to harness it when it arrives.In a country of so much negativity and doom and gloom, it's crucial to be around high energy and momentum. You can spot it in people who are building and creating.Momentum is your most valuable asset. Are you building it or letting it work against you?Find Mikey:https://guardiansmith.co.nz/https://instagram.com/officialmikeysmithAmy from http://Levridge.co.nz has come on as a sponsor of Keep The Change to help people with their financial planning.

The other day I posted a photo online. It was just a payment terminal with a small sign: “CREDIT/PAYWAVE 1.5% surcharge”. It blew up. HUNDREDS of thousands of people saw it. Hundreds of comments. Over one thousand people voted in a poll asking if they do the same. In the comments, people were debating, agreeing, asking questions. All over one simple statement: “I still insert debit card to avoid 1.5% surcharge.”Hey thanks for listening!

This time of the year can be where the new year's energy has died down, and we waver from goals, or we realise we didn’t do what we said we were going to and now there is no point. For some inspo, I asked some KTC listeners what it was like to ‘think they can’t’ but ‘do it anyway’ and what they noticed. Perhaps NOW is the time. What do you need to start doing?Hey thanks for listening! Please take some form of action from this content, don’t just be a consumer, become a producer!

Most Kiwis are overthinking wealth building. They're waiting for the perfect election result, the right market timing, or the ideal economic conditions. Meanwhile, they're missing the simple fundamentals that actually work.James Blair from Lighthouse Financial breaks down why money is actually straightforward: earn as much as you can, don't spend it all, pay down debt, buy shares, buy property. That's it. We cover why waiting for political changes is pointless, why timing the market fails, and why victim mindset keeps people poor.Stop waiting for perfect conditions. Start taking imperfect action. The fundamentals work if you work them.Find James:https://www.instagram.com/lighthousefinancialnz/Amy from http://Levridge.co.nz has come on as a sponsor of Keep The Change to help people with their financial planning.
