For over a year I avoided looking at my retirement plan. Even thinking about it makes me uncomfortable. Finally, I called someone I trust to help me look at my long term savings plan. I won’t sugar coat the experience, it was not fun. I listened and set out a plan. Now I am finally taking action. 

78 percent of American full time workers are living from paycheck-to-paycheck. Living that way is really stressful.

I read about all of these successful people who sleep for 4 hours a night, then do more before 8AM than I do during the entire day. These stories do not inspire me. 

We all think that money is what limits us. If only I had $10,000 I then could finally do the things I want to do. But is money the limiting factor? I’m not sure. 

“Will buying this make me happy”? It’s a simple but powerful question. 

Saving for a first house, getting in shape or learning the guitar are the kind of things we all want in our lives.
