What are your weaknesses?

Dave Ramsey was recently speaking about the global pandemic on his radio show and made an interesting point – This virus and the craziness that’s ensuing because of it is really showing us our weaknesses. The places that we need to sure up as we move on from this.

A couple of areas that come to my mind are our physical health and our financial health. Physically, how are you doing? There are a lot of factors that go into answering that question, and some are out of our control, but what can you do to make sure you’re the healthiest you can be? Do you need to lose weight? Drink more water? Are you getting all of your daily vitamins in, from food or otherwise?

This virus is showing us where we all stand financially as well. Do you have an emergency fund if you’re not able to work (or work at full capacity) right now? Does part of your income go to debt payments right now when you’d rather be able to save up some cash? Are you able to invest extra while the stock market is on sale?

A failure to plan is a plan to fail and that’s possibly never been so evident as it is right now. My advice? Get on a plan. There is a way to have financial peace in times like this and it’s those who have prepared that are cool as cucumbers. Maybe you’re not where you wanted to be financially after all and this craziness has shown you where you need to reevaluate. Take this as your wake up call and your opportunity to learn and be prepared for whatever else comes your way!

As always, I am happy to help you get on the right track. Let me know when you’re ready for your free consultation.
