Taking 30 steps to a better life is all about motivation!
Continuing the idea that you need to lower your expectations, today's tip is all about breaking large, life changing goals into small, bite size pieces.
New life enthusiast Ririan agrees: "...in order to achieve [your dreams] you must set up short term goals that will keep you on the path toward your ultimate destination. Simply setting out a goal of early retirement does little to dictate what you are doing in the here and now."
Ririan uses a great example of early retirement. Who wouldn't love that? Hell I'd quit my day job tomorrow if I had financial freedom.
But you can't just jump into retirement. It takes planning. A good first step to early retirement would be to pay off your debts. Once you do that, all the money you make can go towards that retirement plan, not to your creditors.
See how that works?
Big goal: early retirement.
Breaking it down: step one, pay off debts.
There are, of course, many more steps to take before you can up and retire, such as investing, setting up a savings account, etc. But this is a perfect example of how little steps lead to the ultimate goal.
