30 Days to Success: A Step-by-Step Guide to Achieving Success in 30 Days

I've been spending some time lately thinking about goals, success, what it means to be successful, and how on earth I can accomplish my goals this month in order to be successful.  I even wrote a post on why many people fail to achieve their goals or be successful.  All of this thinking causes problems for me.  Like it makes me think.  And then I come up with ideas.  And then sometimes I try my ideas.  Sometimes that's scary.  Ha!

The #1 Reason You’re Not Succeeding at Your Goals

I seem to be a quitter. At not quite thirty years old, I've been reflecting on my years since high school and realizing that I've started a lot of things, but I've yet to become what I'd call successful in business or in my financial life.

Goal Setting: Week of June 5, 2016

Once again I've missed a few weeks of goal-setting.  Shame on me.  :(  It's been a busy couple of weeks what with preparing for the kids to finish up the school year, Memorial Day, appointments, etc.  I'm really hoping with a new routine and some new supplements this summer that I'll be able to stay committed to, but more importantly FOCUSED on, my work without any major disruptions.  We shall see.  In the meantime, here are my goals for the upcoming week--the first week of having my kids home for summer vacation (eek!): Spiritual: Devotions (5/7) Designated prayer time (1/7)…
