Through my work I can get an hour’s massage for the price of 1/2 an hour, one time only – $40.
It’s a great deal but the thing is, I’m just a poor college student. And I’m studying abroad next year and I’m going to really need that money when I’m shopping in London on the weekend, or flying to Paris for Christmas.
And, I don’t really like the place where that does the massages. It just doesn’t really look like a “spa” or like a fun, relaxing place that would make me feel okay about dropping all that money.
For so many of my goals I feel like there are two ways to accomplish them – the quick way, and the right way – the way that would mean the most to me. I would most like to get a professional massage when I’m on vacation in some exotic place, maybe in some resort by the beach. So I’m going to hold out for that. Then I won’t feel like I cheated on this goal.
