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. And as I've come to this realization, I've also had to recognize that part of the reason I am not yet successful is because I've quit so many things.

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)…

On Summer Routines {FREE Printable!}

Still experimenting with whether or not my nine-year old has Inattentive Type ADHD, I've found it extremely helpful to develop regular routines to keep her organized and functioning at her best.  I myself function better with routines; it's less likely that I'll forget something, for one, and it gives me a slight sense of control over my life. I have to say it's much easier to function on routine during the school months.  The school day has already been decided for us, and the routines that my kids follow at school don't have to be planned out by me.  And while…
