The Total Money Makeover: A Proven Plan for Financial Fitness by Dave Ra...





This is an amazing opportunity to start your journey into financial freedom! I am listening and taking action. We often don't want to make the necessary changes to obtain what we truly want. Until you are "sick and tired" of being sick and tired, you will do the insane thing over and over again expecting different results. Yes, THAT is insanity!!! So, I begin my journey into the sanity of being reasonable, responsible, and redeemed!



Here are the steps that I have taken so far:



1. Got rid of cable and the internet saving $116 per month.

2. Called Verizon to have my bill reduced. I ended up spending the same amount per month but was able to obtain a much needed upgrade, a second phone to use when me or my daughter are using my new upgraded phone for an internet hotspot. Shamar is the Verizon Supervisor from HEAVEN!

3. Began my journey to eating less and healthier.

4. Sat down for a consultation with a wonderful financial analyst who won't let me off of the hook, Frenise Mann (frenisemann@gmail.com).

5. Saving receipts to assess my spending habits

6. Making arrangements for school loans payments to be reduced drastically.

7. One year from now, I will refinance my car with my credit union.

8. Do more reading and creative activities with my daughter and create memories with my family that don't cost me an arm and a leg!

9. Tithe 100% every month

10. Consistently save



These are just some of the things that I have done to begin my serious journey into being debt free. I have set a goal of 3-5 years with my greatest reward being debt free!!!  In addition, I want to take an all-expense paid trip to Greece!



I'm excited about what is to come! I'm excited about my process, my journey!!! Stay tuned! I will chronicle my progress as I go through this transformation.



Thank you, Lord! I will need Your help! :0)



Speaking Life to my finances today and every day! I AM DEBT FREE!!!

TOO  MUCH TOO SOON? I sat there in the interview with a dear associate whose impression upon my life had been nothing but positive. She had no idea of my level of admiration for her professional demeanor, her kindness and honorable care for those whom she worked with, or her strong parenting which I had had the opportunity to admire from interactions that we had had as our youngest had both attended the same preschool institution. Yes, I was there to interview for a administrative position directly under her. It would have been the greatest position for me to be. Well, it still might be. Yeah... this is fresh. But I am agonizing because my level of comfort in a professional setting may have been too much, too soon. Let me share my shame in hopes that you won't make the same faux paux. I had been brought in for a second interview and was feeling VERY good (not overly confident, but strong) about being able to speak with other staff members who echoed everything that I...
I NEED A DEEP MAN Dorothea Manley Copyright 2014 I need a deep man A man who will look into the mirror and diagnose his own shit I need a someone who will not be afraid to sit and talk with me as I deliberate over my day of chaotic prose I need a deeper man who will not be afraid of the word DEEP A man who will open his heart to the transforming power of the totality of what God has for him to embrace within this woman who is as deep as the Nile and can swim it too... I need a deep man who can run his fingers through my nappy hair and not whence at cottony softness that embellishes this crown He has to be deeper than me to contain this heart that dreams of a life poured into a cast iron skillet and fried up to perfection These thighs are not small or improperly structured to fit around his But they are perfection as God has molded me to him Yes, he has to be deep and not afraid of his own greatness or mine Deeper... It is only a state of freedom and...
GOOD MORNING! In my morning meditation walk at work, I was encouraged by Holy Spirit to remember and to remind you that GREATER IS HE WHO IS IN US THAN HE WHO IS IN THE WORLD! I want to encourage you to NEVER let anyone or any circumstance outside of you change, manipulate, contort or distort who God (CREATOR) created you to be! YOU ARE: Fearfully and wonderfully made and nothing less The head and not the tail and nothing less Above and not beneath and nothing less The righteousness of God and nothing less The manifested hope of times past and nothing less BECAUSE GOD IS GREATINYOU, YOU ARE GREATER THAN WHERE YOU ARE RIGHT NOW AND NOTHING LESS! Head up! Shoulders back! Chest out! Now, let's go get it! Loving YOU to Life! Dorothea Manley, Project Speak Life
