For all this planning that you’ve been working on throughout January don’t lose sight of your goal. Your goal is ultimately to make you happy. Your goal may be to achieve “stuff” but remember that it’s meant to bring you long lasting happiness. That new TV might make you happy now, but make sure to have a few vacations with friends and family to gain more memories that will last for years.

So what are your short and long term goals? Which ones are created to make long lasting memories to cherish when you get old?

Have a great weekend!

Keeping in with the planning thing for January. We’re taking this month to set up a plan to help focus and work around all year. Don’t over stress if the first draft of the plan doesn’t seem to work out. A plan can change, but having one to change is the key.

How does your plan look? Do you have gaps or holes that need some help?

Have a great weekend!

There are always going to be speed bumps on your path to your dreams and then you’ll have the occasional flat tire or engine problems. In your plan, make sure to have wiggle room and a “Plan B” in case of engine trouble. This can be an emergency fund or even as simple as a stash of quick cash hidden in your car for the times where your actual tire has a flat.

What is your “Plan B” in case of an emergency?

Have a great weekend!

A new year means new (or continued) goals to achieve. First step is deciding WHAT is that dream? Once you know it, write it down. Next, how are you going to get there? Make sure to have a plan or you will be wandering around looking for your dreams in the wrong places. Make a plan, stay focused, and keep track of your progress. If you’re faced with a fork in the road which way do you turn? To help make the decision consider if its going to help or hinder you to get to your goal.
