What motivates you to succeed financially?
I was just thinking about what motivated you to want to change your financial future? Was it a book you read? Was it an inspiring story of someone achieving their financial goals and aspirations? Or were you simply sick and tired of being broke? Well, the thing that inspired me to work my plan was the fact that I simply got tired and motivated at the same time.
I became tired of seeing everyone else succeeding and my family struggling. I got tired on not having money to buy simple things or even take a small weekend getaway. In essence, I got sick and tired of being broke.All of these things inspired me to stop making the same mistakes that I made in the past.
I then got on a written spending plan and decided to pay down my debt. I have eliminated two debts so far using the debt snowball and I continue to make progress every single day. Now, I’m nowhere near where I need to be however I am no where I used to be either. So to me, I am making progress and that is good news for me.
What is your motivating factor? What inspires you to succeed financially? Please share!
