BUILD YOUR EMERGENCY FUND.
You’ve heard it before—now make it a priority. Aim to save enough to cover 3, 6, or even 12 months of expenses. This cushion gives you freedom: no fear of running short on funds, and the ability to step away from a job when you need time to reflect or focus on yourself.
BUDGET.
… budget, budget. Keep track of your money—what comes in should exceed what goes out. Awareness and consistency are key to building financial stability.
PAY YOURSELF FIRST.
Make saving a non-negotiable habit. Set money aside just for you—start with at least one hour’s worth of your weekly salary. If that feels too ambitious, begin with just $1 a day. The key is to build consistency and prioritize your future self.
CHOOSE A TIMELINE.
Set a financial goal to get rid of all of your debts – commit to it.
SET AN INTENTION.
Decide how much you want to earn in your ideal career or situation. Get clear on that number. Set the intention, and commit to taking steps that move you toward making this future financial reality possible.
