While I understand this in general terms, my mind throws up things like: “But sure if you have no money to pay your bills (now) and then you have money to pay your bills (there) that is better”. Reaching your goals from a places of enoughness is great but if you are struggling with basic necessities surely there (having those necessities) is better than here (not having them) and you can start to focus on things you want rather than things you need.
