One of my favorite aspects of my role is that I get to help people achieve things by helping in areas they would not have otherwise understood.

In my role I am simultaneously an educator, a counselor, a strategist, an engineer and a mathematician.

What a blessing it is to be exactly who God made me and use that to positively impact others.

What can you learn about goals from the way Netflix works? Glad you asked

Netflix has this question that they ask you one time when you are watching a series, an episode ends and the question pops on the screen. "Are you still watching?" If you answer yes to this question once or twice, they stop asking. They realize that you are in the middle of a Netflix binge, and they are content to have your attention.

Financial and other types of goals are easy to talk about and make plans toward. The difficulty comes when you have to think about and keep making decisions month to month.

The solution? Do what Netflix does, make it automatic.

From Direct Deposit to ACH, there are so many options out there that will help you automate your saving, investing and loan payoff goals.

This free advice will make you money, but only if you use it.
