The good… no, the great news is that there is a lot of accessible information about money. Investing, debt, income diversification…you name it, it’s available.
The not-so-good news is that a lot of times, the information that is supposed to help you may end up feeling overwhelming. And what should be pushing you forward financially may end up paralysing your money decisions.
So with all the information that is out there, where should you start?
Answer: At the beginning.
Yes, yes, I know that sounds vague, but allow me to clarify where the beginning is using a simple illustration of a trip.
Let us say you want to go to Naivasha on vacation. Where would you begin? You would:
- Check your wallet: Determine if you have enough money to go on the vacation.
- Plan your destination: Based on what you have, you will then create your itinerary, which includes your accommodation and activities you want to experience
- Plan your transportation: Decide on your mode of transportation – e.g., personal car or rental, etc.
In short, this is how you begin your intentional money journey:
- Check your wallet: Determine where you currently stand financially.
- Plan your destination: Based on this, narrow down your financial goals.
- Plan your transportation: Decide on the best financial vehicle that will help you meet your goals.
