I posted this today because I find myself needing more time. Time management seems to be an area we could all improve in so I hope this is helpful to you. It’s a short video from someone that has taught me a lot about myself and my potential. Brian Tracy has helped hundreds of thousands of people improve and become more productive, more successful, and more wealthy. Today I needed this! If you are interested in learning more I have included below, a way for you to do just that. I love to read, but admit that if I could […] Read more »
Getting Back On Track After Getting Knocked Off Course
I am back ladies and gentlemen! I feel like I have been out of commission for too long. First let me just say that if any of you happens to catch the H1N1 flu going around, be sure to go to your doctor within 48 hours. Also, be sure to stay in bed, drink plenty of fluids, take medication, and keep an eye on your temperature. Today is the first day that I have felt better than about 90%. I still have some chest congestion, a slight sore throat, and I am still experiencing a shortness of breath with even […] Read more »
Million Dollar Club
I decided to join J. Money’s Million Dollar Club. Setting goals is the way to put your plans into motion. Brian Tracy says that a goal not written down typed out, is just a dream because it has no energy. You are definitely more likely to accomplish your goals if you put them down on paper.

Your Total Money Makeover is the same kind of plan. You do each baby step, one step at a […] Read more »

The Perfect Day
Everyone that has kept up with my blog so far, knows that I am big on personal responsibility and setting goals. I love goals! I understand how to set goals but I am not always the best at writing them down. Brian Tracy is my favorite person to listen to when it comes to setting goals. He says, “People with clear, written goals, accomplish far more in a shorter period of time than people without them could ever imagine.” For this to work, you obviously have to stick to the plan. For me, the budget has been the best example […] Read more »
Teenagers and Decisions
Perhaps you are about to graduate High School. What’s next? The decisions you make now will eventually become your reality. The normal path to follow would be to choose a career with favorable pay, right? What college will you go to? What if I said you skipped a step? Maybe you should first consider how you are going to manage your money. If you can’t manage the money that career produces then what’s the point? 70% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck! So basically, 70% of Americans don’t manage their money. In my opinion NOW is the time you need […] Read more »
