Here’s The Crucial Numbers You REALLY Want To Be Tracking!
Having a visual reminder can be a brilliant way of knowing you’re making progress. It’s why you see those barometers on the side of church halls, when they’re raising money for a new roof. And every so often a guy goes up the ladder and colours the next bit in.

The Simplest Way to Grow Your Net Worth!
There’s a well-known saying that ‘what you focus on will increase’.
And it’s never more true, than when it comes to money.
But it’s also really easy to focus on the wrong things!
So which numbers SHOULD you focus on? What should you actually be looking for?
Sorting out your finances? Just take one small step…
What if you’d started 10 years ago?
There’s that saying: “The best time to plant a tree was 10 years ago. The second best time is now”.
I mean, do you want to look back 10 years from now, and wonder where all the money went?
Feel like you’re faking it? Here’s what to do instead!
If the whole financial thing feels totally overwhelming – and you just don’t know what to start – you’re NOT alone.
Why New Year’s resolutions fail (and what to do instead)
I think more often than not, we’re doomed to fail. Because there’s all that hype about doing something new, doing something special, that this will be the year you actually achieve something.
But it just doesn’t work, does it?!
In so many ways, you are SO much better just to pick what you want to do and get on with it, when the time is right for you.
Don’t just make money. Keep it (and grow it!)
Once you are making money, it’s about having a plan to create assets and growth – tangible things to show for all your hard work.
And it’s about using that money to do all the things you want to do, and to feel the way you want to feel.

Congratulations! It’s been an amazing year for you, hasn’t it?!
You’ve had your best months ever in your business.
Your income is growing year on year, month on month and this last year has just been incredible.
BUT now you really need to get this cash organised! Because you can’t go into your next financial year with this money sitting there in your business, doing nothing.
So how do you strike the balance between what you take out as salary and dividends – and what you leave in your business account?
If you DON’T want to budget…do this instead!
Not a fan of budgeting?!
Confession time…I don’t do a budget planner anymore.
What I DO have is a system that means I can spend money, without needing to worry.
Want financial success? DON’T listen to Karen!
There’s been a lot of stuff online recently about internet Karens – basically those people who seem REALLY opinionated about something, but usually have no basis at all in what they’re saying.
And the advice being doled out so freely is clearly coming from a person with NO clue about what they’re actually saying.
Cash sitting in your business account? Here’s #5 things to do with it!
Maybe you’re a couple of years into your business and getting to that stage where you’re not spending every single penny you earn or having to borrow from friends and family.
Which is brilliant. But presents a different challenge!
Work; life; money and guilt…
Ever feel guilty for not working? Or about the way you choose to live your life or run your business? Over the last 12 months, I’ve lost count of the number of people who’ve commented on the fact that we don’t work on Fridays. Our office is only open Monday to Thursday. Half-joking comments like […]

How to escape your corporate job (without sacrificing your lifestyle!)

Is money self-sabotage holding you back?
We all have a money story. It’s the little voice in your head, that tells you what you think about money and wealth. Often, we’re not aware of it. It’s formed from things we’ve heard, read or been told about money – and by the way our parents acted, when we were small. Our money […]
