Budgets

This week continuing. We are continuing our freedom series through finance. It's encouraging to note that many people are understanding and having a desire to maintain the proper finances to create wealth, become contributors to the greater society and to live a life free from stress and unwise management. Today I want to encourage you to set and start budgets. Take some time to figure out what you want to have, what you have, and what you spend and want to save. This is important because a budget is a guideline into helping you see what, when, where and how you are spending your money. Take about 10 minutes a day, detail each transaction, making sure to put living expenses first like house, food, car, etc. Secondly, examine what is left over vs where you are in your month - i.e, 10th of the month - and so on make the effort to save a little each week. Make a sandwich, brew tea and coffee at home ( $1 bag from the Dollar store makes 32 cups) - so be mindful of what is going on and what you are doing with your money and you will see there is more on the way. Remember everything in your is for you. Negativity and other things outside you are not - keep your thoughts positive.
