Living Alone For The First Time – How Much Money Do You Need?

You are living at your parents’ house and thinking, how much money do I actually need to start living alone?
This question has a different answer for everyone but we will look at some guidelines to help you figure it out for your personal situation.
Your parents pay for so many things that you probably don’t even have a clue about, so many bills that need to get paid every single month. If you can and your parents will have you, my advice would be to stay as long as you can in your parental home to save money for your future.
Moving out and living alone for the first time can be exciting or scary, but you should spend some time thinking about the financial situation before making the big jump!

Complete House Chore List for the First Time Living Alone

A house chore list can be the structured support you need when you start living by yourself for the first time!

You made a big step, moving out of your parents’ home. Living on your own can be quite overwhelming in the beginning. You will probably call your parents or grandparents more than you would like to ask for help and that’s okay.

Household chores aren’t the favorite things to do when you arrive home, but they are a necessity. At least, some of them are. If you live alone without any roommates, feel free to do the things on this list as much or as little as you find needed.

I am a big fan of making a good structured plan to help you take control over your household. If you do chores only when you feel like it, chances are that you end up procrastinating most of them. Who wants to live in a cluttered and dirty home without food in the fridge? That’s right, no one!

Let’s start looking at all the chores you need to do to live comfortably.

The Power of Silence – Recharge Your Energy for Introverts

Don’t you just wish you could plug in your social batteries while you are working? Unfortunately, it doesn’t work this way. It’s not that easy.
As an introvert, you start your day with a full social battery on good days. At least if you had some time to recharge from your past day. When you have to talk and interact with a lot of people, this battery will run out pretty soon if you are introverted.
Introverts can even have a kind of ‘social hangover’. If you are an introvert you probably know what I am talking about but if you aren’t, here follows an explanation of the phenomenon. When you have a social hangover you feel drained or exhausted from overstimulating social contacts, this can be from the previous day or multiple days. The cure to this social hangover is some alone time.
This blog post will help you discover ways to recharge your energy as an introvert.
