Dreams are possible if you are savvy about managing your money. The process: Set a goal, make a plan, and take action.
What’s at stake? Money, time, energy, family and friends. Prioritize everything and stick with your plan.
Goals take several forms: short-term, intermediate-term and long-term. Short-term goals equate to three months or less, intermediate are usually reached within the year and long-term goals are plans for those of more than one year. Make your goals meaningful and write them down so you can see them often and integrate them into your everyday life.
