Hi Reader

You know that thing you were supposed to do today? But then you didn’t? Yeah, that. Maybe you tidied your desk instead, or scrolled social media for a bit longer than you should have. We’ve all done it and we’ve all felt bad about it. But should we?
​

Procrastination is usually seen as the enemy of productivity. I’m sure you’ve heard that before. But what if, sometimes, it actually helps?
​

PODCAST

​The Paradox Power of Procrastination for Creatives​

In this episode, we explore the multifaceted world of procrastination.
“Procrastination gives you time to consider divergent ideas, to think in nonlinear ways, to make unexpected leaps.” - Adam Grant

BUT this is where you don’t want to procrastinate

Budgeting and cash flow forecasting. Not the most exciting thing in the world, but also kind of important, right? You need to know where your money’s going, what’s coming in, and how to make sure you don’t end up panicking at the end of the month.

The problem is, most budgeting tools are complicated. Spreadsheets? Confusing. Finance apps? Overwhelming. Doing it in your head? Let’s be honest - that never works.
​

That’s why Budgetwhizz exists. It’s not just another tool. It’s a simple way to track your income, plan ahead, and actually understand your finances without wanting to throw your laptop out the window.
​

If you’ve ever thought, I really should get better at budgeting, now’s the time. Try Budgetwhizz today - free plan available so you can dip your toes in the water.

If you’ve read this whole thing, you deserve a medal.

No medals available, but I’ll email you again next week.

Best,
