Now, I know that I am probably one of the worst when it comes to this.
I see my emergency fund almost as this, like I put it up on this pedestal.
as like a trophy of this thing that I don't ever want to have to touch.
I don't want to have to use it.
I don't want to see it decrease in value.
I just want it sitting there.
And my goal is to just always have it there and never have to use it.
It's normal to treat our emergency fund as if it's a trophy, something we should never touch.
And I think that's because you worked hard.
You worked hard to get that money into that savings account.
But it's not a trophy.
It's not just this thing we have sitting over there that is never supposed to get any use.
It is a tool.
It is a resource.
And it's okay whenever you have to tap into it.
The truth here is that you didn't lose progress when it came to your financial goals.
No, what you did was you used your progress to cover yourself.
The time and energy that you spent putting that money away in savings, you can now use that whenever unexpected things come up.
One of the best ways to help you reframe what happened here and having to use this money is that you've already proven that you can save the money once.
You've done it.
