It costs money to eat. People often say, “Money is the root of all evil.” This could be true in some cases but money in the right hands can do many good things. Money is a tool. Money is a resource.

This is when you are most creative. When your back is against the wall and you must act is when you are at your most powerful. Don’t ever give up and use the pressure as fuel to do more.

Blog #102 – Build as much Momentum as you can!
Once you start something keep with it everyday. The repetition is the best way to learn and grow. If you are not getting better then you are doing too much. Simplify the process until the repetition becomes boring and then simplify it some more. Take it all the way back to the basics and start as small as possible. A daily habit is the best way to build momentum! Write a blog, do a crossword, practice an instrument, a sport. Make sure the goal is attainable. Reward yourself for long streaks. Stay motivated and don’t quit. The wins are in the process!

Blog #101 – FINISH!
Finish everything you do!
Get in the mindset of finishing. Finishing builds momentum because then it becomes repetition. If you do not finish anything then nothing gets moved off the to-do list. You become stuck on in the same place. The work piles higher and higher. The stress begins to build until you finish and move on to the next thing.
Finishing is always capped off with a celebration or person satisfaction! There is a sense of accomplishment because you completed what you set out to do.
Never forget to CELEBRATE!!!!
