Monthly Plan Summary Earns Big Rewards
 Worksheet & Register
Once you make your adjustments, carry over your new amounts from your Spending Plan Worksheet to your Spending Register. Make certain your Worksheet and Registers are the same for the coming month. After doing this for three months, you’ll have a fairly consistent and accurate budget you can live with and you know works. You may find you need to make changes each month. Whatever your circumstances, be sure to monitor how your Plan’s working and make any necessary adjustments. You can then be sure you are on the quickest route to financial freedom.
Remember
Financial integrity not only involves being honest in your dealings, but also keeps spending in line with your financial philosophy and goals. Just like Dave and Marie, it won’t take long to realize the benefits of skillfully managing your financial affairs. Your confidence will grow, and you’ll have a clearer view of a healthier financial future. If you faithfully practice what you’ve learned, your rewards will not only be financial but personal and priceless.
   “Don’t be afraid to
give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you that much stronger. If you do the little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves.”
~ Dale Carnegie
   Your Commitment
—Build a Spending Plan that Works
Remember, the most valuable thing you can give yourself and others is your word. This commitment is key to your journey. Without a Plan you cannot achieve your goal of financial health. You’ll need to
complete your Spending Plan Worksheet and begin consistently using your Spending Register as soon as possible. Please don’t take more than 3 months or you likely won’t ever start, and all your work will be for nothing. Write your expected completion date in your calendar to remind you.
I promise myself, to complete my Spending Plan Worksheet and use my Spending Register every day to reach my financial goals.
