I have finally finished day 71. First I had to confront this feeling of overwhelmed. The task seemed to be too much, but I took to Heart Coach Steele's suggestion to take my time. When I finally sat down to write up all my financial data, it happen much more quickly that I thought possible. Since I have a fair amount of debt the exercise was not always fun.
The next battle was to make this a positive action. I have always looked negatively on financial matters. They where necessary but not inspiring, which might explain where I am at.
Growing up there were constant fights about money so it wasn't the best inculcation about finances. Alot of negative information was absorbed as I grew up.
Getting rid off all the negatives about money will take some hard effort. I will have to rededicate myself to the checklist to get me through.
But finally I do see a light.
I put everything for the first seven days in the Goal Tracker and it is the best goal tracker I've done so far, just goes to show that practice makes perfect.
The accumulation of everything I have learned on Tools, the changes that have taken place have helped me get to the point where I am now focus more on financial success than on debt reductions. I feel with continued hard work I will make the goals for my first 90 days.
I feel that I am on the right path and ready for the challenges ahead.
