Set Reasonable Goals
Unreasonable goals trip people up more often than we’d like to think. Let’s say you want to save $10,000, but you have kids, auto loans and a mortgage to take care of too. Doesn’t sound so easy now, does it?
You might find it simple enough at first but, in time, if you’re not honest about your expectations you might give up.
In order to overcome this issue, think about your goal in different stages. That $10,000 we mentioned? That’s the end goal. You’ll need to set up milestones along the way. The easier the milestones, the easier it’ll be for you to stick to your plan.
