Refinement of Planning and Execution

Refine your current budget and create attainable goals

Identify at least two areas that you would like to work on within your current budget and decide whether you want to decrease your expenses or place an additional budget for it. 

By evaluating how much you've spent on a certain matter and identifying the 'new' number you'd like to establish, you're one step closer to attaining your goal. Remember that your goals aren't impossible, but there has to be a fresh approach adopted to see them through.

  • It is recommended to tackle high-interest accounts first, but you can also take inventory of what works best for you.
