Hi Friend! It’s Day 5 of your money makeover!
So far in our 5 Day Money Makeover we’ve talked about gaining vision, setting a savings target and specific savings strategies.
Today I’m showing you how I keep track of each of these elements of our money plan by using a simple DIY budget binder.
Many people use online systems to keep track of financial details and bookkeeping but being a visually-oriented person, I prefer to use a physical notebook and hand write the details because it cements them in my mind and helps me to stay on track.
I have also found that I am much more motivated to keep up with my spending and saving when I use tools that are bright and colorful rather than dull and boring. I need to make dealing with money as pleasant as possible.
Of course you should find the system that works best for you, but click HERE to take a peek into what I like to call my Money GPS because it tells us where we are headed financially and how to get there.
