DAY 6 OF MY FILS CHALLENGE: THE CHALLENGE OF GIVING AND SAVING
Today, January 26, 2025, it's a bit late, but I finally got the chance to check my Al Salam Bank account. After publishing my post earlier today about Rowland Harriet offering to crowdfund $10,000 for me (you can check that out here: "Rowland Harriet Offered To Crowdfund $10,000 For Me- What's Behind the Offer?! | Ember Rage), I decided to take a quick look at my savings.
I'm happy to report that I've saved 2.100 BHD so far!

Here's how that looks in different currencies today:
* Philippine Pesos (PHP): About ₱325.50
* US Dollars (USD): Around $5.50
* Indian Rupees (INR): Roughly ₹1,400.00
UNDERSTANDING TOMORROW'S DEDUCTION:

Tomorrow, my deduction will increase to 0.700 fils, which will be equivalent to:
* Philippine Pesos (PHP): About ₱108.00
* US Dollars (USD): Around $1.85
* Indian Rupees (INR): Roughly ₹140.00
REFLECTIONS ON DAY 6:
This morning, I couldn't avoid sending money to my mother to support her personal goals. While it goes against my plan to be more mindful with my spending—especially knowing the deductions will keep doubling each day—I can't help but honor a promise I made to her. She has never asked me for financial help, and it's always me who steps in voluntarily because when we talked, she shared her personal goal with me, which has a connection to her spiritual journey. Without hesitation, I chose to support her in pursuing that goal.
I've always been supportive of her goals, especially when they are connected to her spiritual faith, which I value deeply. So, when I make a promise, I make sure to keep it. Even though this breaks my spending rules for the challenge, I know I'm doing it for a good reason. I've also told them that this will be the last time I send money for a while, so I can focus more on my Fils Challenge.
FINAL THOUGHTS:
Day 6 has reminded me of the importance of balancing my own goals with helping those I love. Sometimes, it's about honoring the promises we make, even when it's challenging. I'm staying positive and focused, knowing that every small step counts towards my bigger goal of financial confidence.
