Hari ke-2 perjalanan mencapai Pola Hidup Sederhana

Hari ini dapat di bilang hari yang tidak terlalu baik untuk pelaksanaan pola hidup sederhana. Dimulai dengan di pagi hari saya lupa untuk bangun pada pukul 5 yang menyebabkan saya tidak dapat menanak nasi dan kemudian hari ini saya tidak dapat membawa bekal nasi ke kantor. Sebenarnya saya berusaha untuk mencegah melakukan pengeluaran berlebih dengan membungkus kopi bubuk untuk dua cangkir, namun begitu sampai di kantor entah mengapa saya tergoda untuk pergi ke dunkin donat untuk membeli paket breakfast. Seperti biasa paket breakfast dengan sandwich yang sangat tidak bermutu ditambah dengan segelas besar kopi hitam harus saya tebus dengan Rp 27.000, sungguh kurang menguntungkan secara nilai uang karena dengan harga yang sama seharusnya saya dapat membeli dua buah burger di burger king. Tidak berhenti disana, karena setelah merasa kurang kenyang dengan sandwich dunkin saya kembali memesan burger king melalui Grab-food yang ditawarkan teman saya Dina, keputusan ini ternyata adalah keputus...

Rencana Belanja Rp.0 Rupiah Gagal akibat Vocer Gratis Go-food

Hari ini sebenarnya saya sudah bertekad untuk tidak membelanjakan uang sepeserpun karena saya sudah membawa makana dari rumah. Namun , siang hari saya tergoda untuk membuka aplikasi go food yang ternyata menawarkan berbagai promo. Pertama saya menggunakan promo go food untuk membeli soto bogoryang harganya Rp 17000, namun karena berbagai macam promo saya hanya perlu membayar sebesar Rp 3000. Kemudian karena saya kaget dengan diskon yang saya dapatkan, saya kemudian memesan makana lain yaitu es krim kopi dan martabak dengan biaya cuma cuma (karena saya menggunakan vocer promo lagi. Saking senangnya akhirnya saya tergoda lagi untuk membeli kopi starbuck yang walaupun telah dikurangi promo harganya tetap Rp 13.ooo. Empat transaksi ini akhirnya membuat saya melakukan pengeluaran sebesar Rp 16.000. Saldo gopay saya yang kemarin Rp 25.000 kini tinggal Rp 9.000. Sebenarnya saya dari awal sudah heran mengapa gojek dengan sukarela memberikan banyak diskon, yang kemudian dengan segera saya sad...

Perjalanana memulai Pola Hidup Sederhana

Tanpa saya sadari saya telah memulai hidup minimalist sejak pertama kali saya mendapatkan penghasilan. Waktu itu saya mendapat kesempatan untuk berdinas ke jakarta dan di sela sela waktu saya mengunjungi toko buku murah di basement Blok M Square. Entah mengapa dari sekian banyak buku yang ada disana saya tertarik dengan buku "Rich Dad Poor Dad" karangan Robert T. Kiyosaki. Sebuah buku mengenai finansial pribadi yang juga bukan jenis buku yang pernah saya sukai sebelumnya. Buku ini membuka mata saya mengenai bagaimana perekonomian bekerja melalui perputaran uang, dan dengan menguasai uang kita dapat lebih memgang kendali pada hidup kita. Darisinilah saya pertama kali belajar mengenai pentingnya uang, dan karena itu janganlah dengan mudah kita berikan kepada orang lain. Kehati-hatian saya menggunakan uang kemudian secara langsung berdampak pada bagaimana saya membeli barang barang. Sebelumnya saya selalu suka membeli barang barang terkini yang sebenarnya tidak benar benar say...
