I have so many goals that I am ready to achieve, but somehow, I still have trouble finding the motivation to actually start them. Don't get me wrong, I've began these goals sometime before, but while on the road to reach them, I always stumble into a pothole and end up getting a flat tire. What I mean is that either something gets in the way or I just lose total motivation to keep it going. How can oneself find this inner motivation? Let me tell you one of my goals. I get intimidated by it because it's so large, it isn't something you can do overnight. I would like to move out of my parents' house. My Life Management professor gave the class some advice on reaching huge goals. You really gotta start small. Tackling the whole "moving out" thing all in one piece is way too overwhelming, am I right? Starting small like cutting down shopping to save more money can be something I can start with. But what I'm wondering is, how do I stay consistent? As bad as I want to move out, I love to eat out and shop. I always have this desire to buy something I see at the store that I like. It's such a bad habit and I don't know how to curb it.
I need help on saving money. Should I make a savings account? I'll sign up for direct deposit and schedule my money transfers to the account right when I get paid so that I don't even see the money that's being saved. That is what is so hard about getting paid salary. I want to save a lot, but if I do, I won't have enough money to last me the whole month! I will most likely take my own advice though, and open up a savings account.
