Happy New Year…! It’s resolution time again… okay but is it really? I mean how many people actually plan, commit and take action consistently on New Year resolutions? You notice I said consistently?…. this implies that you have actually continued enough to create a habit. Planning, commitment is all talk unless you actually do something about it! If you change nothing, nothing changes! How do you know if you are committed? take a look at your results and what you are actually doing on a daily basis. You can be committed to not doing as well….there lies the charm in it! I am challenging you to look at where you are financially and embrace your commitment to being there. It just is and today is the day to make a choice to do something about it.

There are two things that Canadians are hesitant to talk about and that is sex and money! I find that most people who are struggling financially are hestitant to get assistance because of what might be thought about their lack of money savvy. Think about it… you can only do what you have learned or what you have seen modelled. This isn’t right or wrong, it just is. So embrace what you know and look for opportunities to learn more. There are tons of resources available for families and helping them with their finances… people need to accept responsibility and embrace it. If not for themselves directly what about their kids financial future? Isn’t that worth more than a bit of pride for something that you may not have even been conscious about.

I am all about sharing the wealth and giving families opportunities to get what they need to help them to succeed financially. However, I can’t do it for them…they need to take action themselves. So I challenge parents, future parents, and adults that have children in their lives to come out to our Free Introductory workshop on Jan 13 and get into action. Or look for our new teleseminar series starting Jan 27, 2009…. these are there for you!
And remember if YOU change nothing, nothing changes!

To your health and wealth!
