Hey Everyone!!!
Can you believe that 2015 is right around the corner? People
always say that the year “goes fast” but 2014 actually did go fast, at least
for me. I’m always ready and awaiting a
fresh new year with a fresh new start. Each year, I get better at learning from
hard times and taking those lessons and making some better out of them. Growing
financially mature is one of the main lessons always in my life. I've been
through alot money wise, I often think “I must be getting prepared to me a
millionaire.” Lol I learned that there is nothing embarrassing about your
struggle, at least learn from it.
Planning for an awesome 2015 financially is what I’m
starting for the New Year. It’s not enough to just say, “I want to save more”. I need a plan of attack!! Here are some ideas
I've got going in my Notes section of my IPod. I’m always keeping running
lists, inspiration and ideas in that area and it’s naturally convenient as
well.
#1- Cleaning out my
handbag, wallet, receipts, bill folders- I can be a bit messy sometimes,
but once heard an motivational speaker say to treat your money, no matter much
you have, like you want it to treat you. Getting organized and putting forth
effort to staying organized, like cleaning your purse out once week is on my to
do list.
#2 Setting a savings
goal and creating a plan of attack- My biggest issue to date financially is
saving money. I feel like if I can destroy the thought of “I can’t save money
very well” I will be able to do so much more. I've currently started to
challenge myself to save and it has been going well. I have a big goal for 2015, to save a set amount
so that we can move into our own place. I want to be prepared to move and move
the way I want to (new furniture, professional movers) and I need put the money
aside as much as possible. I’m working on that plan of attack too. I will
become a great saver!
#3 Speaking financial
greatness into my life- If I don’t tell myself, that I can save, I can
spend wisely, I can budget well for my family, I will be able to support my
family abundantly….then who will? Speaking those positive phrases over your
financial life can help you become to fiscal diva you want to be. All this is
coming from a woman who has been unemployed on and off for 5 years, single mom
of twins, living with a parent with currently $65 in her pocket. WE will be great in money and
style!!!!!
