Are you the master of your finances? Or do you find yourself swimming frantically, trying to keep your head above water?
The thing is, if you do not take conscious and definitive action you have chosen to be a slave to circumstance. This is especially true of money and finances.
So, how do you become a master?
You take control.
Sit down. Figure out exactly where you currently are. What do you own? Who owes you money? Who do you owe? How much money is coming in? And how much is going out?
Once you have this information you will know exactly where you are. And, if you have ever been lost, you know knowing where you are is the first (and possibly most important) step toward figuring out how to get where you want to go.
Which, leads to the next step: Where do you want to go? And why?
This may take a little time. But dare to dream. What would you like your life to look like if anything were possible? Do you want this dream life because it is what you truly want and in alignment with your values? Or is it because it is what you think you *should* do? (hint: stop “shoulding” all over yourself)
Now take a look at your revenue and expenses. Is what you are currently doing in alignment with where you see yourself eventually being? Are your decisions bringing you one step closer to your goals? Can you increase how much is coming in? Can you decrease how much is going out?
