Picturing Our Dream

It is so important to dream and plan together.  Especially when giving yourselves such tight restrictions.   As you are motivating yourself to start or continue overcoming debt, sit down with your spouse.  It is time to start dreaming.  We already discussed dreaming about big giving.  It is also time to dream about what you want your life to look like when it is no longer strapped by debt.  Albert and I sat down a few months ago and made our list.  We had discussed it numerous times in the past.  This time we made a record of it.  It is something to revisit often.  It keeps us focused on our goal.  It keeps us motivated to trudge on!

Some of our list has special treats.  Going on that Alaska cruise we dreamed about for our honeymoon.  Walking into a store with an outrageous amount of money and going on a cash shopping spree.  For me, having a standing appointment at a day spa.  For Albert, having a regularly set tee time.  Hiring an interior designer to turn our home into a dream.  Or at least have matching furniture!

Other items on our list include changes in our lifestyle.  Buying all organic, farm fresh food.  Mama being home with the kids all day.  Of course, skyrocketing our giving!  Having company over for lunch every Sunday afternoon.  Driving better vehicles.



Our biggest financial dream is our home.  Other than me being a stay at home mom, this is the dream we talk about the most.  Picture this with us.  Many acres of beautiful, gently rolling hills.  A ranch style home that we have either built or modified.  On our land you will find countless picturesque backdrops.  Our own private outdoor studio.  The most stunning backdrop will be the location of a wedding venue.  Including a gorgeous barn in case of poor weather.  We will be your one stop shop for all of your wedding needs. 


We will provide all inclusive wedding packages with people we have partnered with.  Our dream will make other people's dreams come true.  We will both be home full time with our children, doing what we love.



That is our dream.  What is yours?
