The concept of “Money Management” is a big one, so we’re breaking it down into six tips to help you improve some areas of your personal finance.
- Know your financial situation. It’s important to know, based on actual numbers, how we stand financially. How much interest is our debt accruing? How are our investments growing?
- Set goals. Create a financial plan with dollar amounts, a time-frame, and steps you can take to reach your goals.
- Make sure you’re giving as you’re prospering. Again, check the numbers to verify your giving divided by your income is where you’d like it to be.
- Look out for opportunities. Be observant & make up your mind to take advantage of opportunities when they show up.
- Commit. There will be distractions and temptations to pull you away. If you’re committed to improving your stewardship, it’ll be easier to overcome these obstacles.
- Don’t allow discouragement to win. If you normally allow setbacks to get the best of you, be patient with yourself and practice looking at problems optimistically.
