What Would You Do With $100?

On Christmas day I returned home to find some mail at my doorstep.  It was fun to open up all of the late delivered Christmas cards and continue to feel the Spirit of the Season.  One card was from a client, which was thoughtful in and of itself, and held a $100 gift card.  

Wowsa!!  

That's not junk change!  I felt extremely grateful and my mind immediately started reeling with what I could purchase.  Maybe an apple tv?  A nice bag?  Some new running shoes?  The sky was the limit.  And that's pretty much been my biggest problem.

If anyone knows me at all they know I'm horrible at making decisions, especially when limitless options are involved.  I mull things over and over and over again until everyone I know is sick of talking to me because all I do is talk about my BIG decision.  

I'm a muller.  

And I create mountains out of molehills.

This experience is no exception.  I thought I knew what I wanted but just can't seem to close the deal because, well, what if later I discover something I really NEED and kick myself for spending so frivolously?  AND.......I've found that there are some really cool things I could buy that cost more than $100 but......now's just not the time.

So there it sits, burning a hole in my wallet.  

What would you do with $100?

I think you should subscribe to Netflix for a while. Or some new shoes.

Continue enjoying the potential. You can spend it in your mind an infinite number of ways, but you can only spend it for real once. When a fun opportunity arises, use it, and don't look back. :)
