Hey __________, it’s Jordan.
The first time I earned $40 from work that took most of an afternoon, I looked at money differently. I had spent hours helping with a job. When I finally had the money, something I wanted cost $35.
Before I earned the money myself, $35 had just sounded like a price. Afterward, it sounded like almost the whole afternoon I had just spent working.
Would I trade that much of my time for it?
