The biggest reason most people use CBD Oil is because of it’s anti-inflammatory and anti-anxiety effects.

Budgeting for Canadian Millennial Professionals

Hi All,

In today’s post, I am going to discuss “Budgeting for Canadian Millennial Professionals”.

My top 3 tips for budgeting as a Canadian Millennial Professional are:

1. Dedicate 50% of your Paycheque for Bills

How do we set aside enough for bills? We make sure that when our paycheque comes in we dedicate the majority of it to our bills.

Unexpected expenses can arise month to month but by being more prepared we can ensure our living costs are covered.

Living costs like:

Rent
Food
Internet
Hydro

Now personal expenses will vary from person to person but keep in mind that it is a good practice to reserve 50% or more if you need to for your bills.

2. Dedicate 30% towards your Wants

After you have set aside the majority of your post tax income for your bills and your account is not left short, you may then dedicate the next portion of your money towards your wants.

Now for your want money, I would still be conservative for how much you spend in this category but give yourself a 20-30% threshold for “fun money”.

By fun money I mean the money you can use for:

Going out to eat
Seeing a movie
Buying new clothes
Buying a new book
Going for a weekend adventure

The above are just some examples for fun money options but again these will vary from person to person.

Each month, everyone will want to do different things outside of work. Fun money, as I like to call it, is a good verb for it because these activities are usually fun.

By allowing room in your budget for fun money, you will be more inclined to stick to your financial goals and this helps you feel good.

3. Dedicate 20% towards Investing

The final ingredient for your overall budget, is investing.

Investing is the final piece in your budget because you need to ensure you have your bills taken care of first.

Second, you enjoy some of your budget with some fun money spending on things you enjoy doing or experiencing.

Lastly, you dedicate a small percentage of your budget let’s say 20%, towards some sort of investment for your financial future.

Some investing options could include:

Stocks
Real Estate
Building your own Business

Summary

I hope you all enjoyed this post on budgeting for Canadian Millennial Professionals.

I feel that this particular topic for my blog post/video series will be very beneficial for Millennials.

Financial literacy is often the last thing people would like to think about but it is essential for your financial health and well being.

Being more educated in your financial decisions will help you be better prepared to make the right choices when the time comes.

Sleep | Episode 6

In today’s episode, I discuss the importance of getting in enough sleep. Sleep is probably the most important aspect of your mental & physical performance regimen. Without sleep, you will not be able to focus the same on attention intensive tasks.

Getting in at least 7-8hrs of sleep daily will put you in a great position to focus and make the most of your day. Studies have shown that just getting in enough quality sleep can increase your productivity the next day by as much as 20-30%! If that is not enough science to help you get to bed on time I don’t know what is. So do your very best to get in some quality zzz, your relationships and your career will thank you.

Some tips discussed to help you wind down before bed:

1. Take 1 magnesium capsule

2. Take 1ml of CBD Oil and aim for 20-25 mg/ml to help aid in its relaxing wind-down effects

3. Stretch or Do Yoga for 3-5 min to loosen up muscle tightness

4. Drink Chamomile Tea 60-90 minutes before bed

Nutrition | Ep. 5

Hi all, In this episode I discuss some nutrition principles, and food options for eating healthy eating. I talk about the importance of eating veggies, getting in good protein sources like chicken breast, chicken thighs, ground turkey and fish, for carbs: potatoes, sweet potatoes, yams, couscous, and quinoa. Let me know your thoughts on this podcast episode and what you want to see next. Cheers, Alex

How to Avoid Bad Habits

Hi All,

In today’s video, I am going to discuss “How to Avoid Bad Habits”.

My top 3 tips for Avoiding Bad Habits Are:

1. Changing your Environment

By changing the environment in which you are in, this can help to avoid bad habits.
If you are in a toxic environment, where people are speaking negatively you’re more likely to develop bad habits.
Associate with positive people in positive environments to develop good habits

2. Focusing on Positive Self-Talk

Speaking negatively to ourselves or others is a big no no. How do we counteract negative self-talk?
Surround yourself with positive people in positive environments.
People will gravitate towards positive vibes usually naturally.
Use your own positive self-talk, listen to motivational videos, podcasts, or read positive or influential books from thought leaders across various industries.

3. Swapping Bad Habits for a Good Habits

Everyone has good habits and bad habits. In order to change your bad habits, you want to swap for better ones.
Particularly a newer positive habit you have built such as eating healthier.
By starting small, and picking a good habit such as eating more vegetables and avoiding junk food, you will feel more optimistic.
This will be a slow and gradual change from swapping a bad to a good habit.

Post Summary

I thank you all for reading and hope you gained some valuable insight into how to avoid bad habits.
