The concept of money

I am not the only person in the world focused on money and concerned about it. But today, when yet again I was faced with a purchasing decision, I realised that I should look at my issue differently. Instead of going into a tailspin and complaining in my mind for the thousandth time about my salary and other past decisions, I looked at the matter in the present and the future. In the present by saying, what has been my situation? That question brought up what I am facing squarely,instead of what I have been facing in the near distant past, and then I knew that it shall not always be so.
Then I looked at the idea of life as an adventure, and I actually let the perceived problem go. It may not change the outcome for tomorrow, but what it did do was get me out of the place that I usually venture, which is worry, doubt and blame, and they do not help me one bit.
This way of thinking also did something else that was unexpected, and that was, confronting anxiety head on, knowing that this is not the way that it shall always be, and focusing instead on better.
