We’re finding it impossible to do ALL THE THINGS.
Cooking actual meals, staying on top of bills, being the friend who remembers birthdays, excelling at work, engaging in self-care practices. We just don’t have enough hands.

While we’re on a roll with organizing and optimizing our finances, let’s talk about our money move this week that will catapult your financial progress:
Pick ONE financial goal.
Trying to juggle multiple goals at once can easily leave you feeling stuck. You might make tiny progress on multiple fronts, but nothing that feels like a win.
Picking one goal allows your brain to finally work in its most efficient capacity.
When you focus on one goal at a time, your brain operates more smoothly, progress picks up speed, and you’ll start feeling real momentum. Here’s how:
-
Start with your life goals. What are your top 2-3 priorities right now? Is it creating more freedom with your schedule? Reducing stress? Engaging in activities that bring you joy?
-
Pick a financial goal that supports (not competes with) those. For example, if your life goal is to travel more, your financial goal might be building a travel fund (not buying a car you won’t need).
-
Ask yourself: Does this financial goal make any other goals easier or unnecessary? If the answer is yes, you’ve likely found the one thing to focus on.
-
Make it measurable. “Save money” is too vague. “Save $1,400 for a trip by October” gives your brain a target to hit. From there you can build out the strategies that will get you there!
Bonus tip: Your financial goal should be rooted in real numbers.
